The use of this template is reserved to the FSD administrators. Standard users must refrain from including this template in a page.

Description

This template produces an administrative notification and can be used in all pages of the FSD for different purposes. It should be used when rules are not respected, to restore a serene environment. It is also legitimate to use this template to leave a message indicating your prolonged absence or to prevent a fragment of important documentation from being misunderstood or ignored.
Administrators can use the template by providing 3 parameters in the form "|name=value" and it will produce a standard message in the exact position where it is placed. It has minimal performance impact and is easy to use, so it's a good idea to add this page to your bookmarks.

Reference

The first parameter ("level") is the "severity level" of the notification, which can be:

  • note (a simple note);
  • inote (an important note);
  • notification (something has happened or something will happen);
  • warning (warning after first violation of the rules);
  • severe (warning after reiterated violation of the rules);
  • action (action/reaction).

The second parameter ("content") is the text to be sent to the user.
The third parameter ("signature") is your signature (use --~~~ or better --~~~~) or the name of a team.
Example: {{AdministrativeNotification|level=warning|content=your custom message|signature=--~~~~}}
...produces an administrative warning, enclosed in a nice and serious box.
You can test the template in your sandbox/user page without consequences, to understand which level is ideal for your message before adding it to another wiki page.

[Please specify the "content" parameter. "content=" custom text.]

The FSD administrator,
[Please specify the "signature" parameter. "signature=--~~~~" to produce a link to your admin profile.]
