Hey, guys. I thought the current ban text has some problems. First of all, there's a typo (should say "amend", not "emend"). Second, it's a little vague, not telling you what to do while blocked (complain on your talk page, etc.), least of all if you can even edit your talk page (yes).

My Solution: Click here. See if you like it better.

That's obsolete. We use ban interpretive dance now. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 03:22, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

Qué significa? -- Cute Zekrom! _{Use Fusion Bolt NOW!! • It's super effective!03:28 10 Mar '12}

That means "What does that mean?" -- Cute Zekrom! _{Use Fusion Bolt NOW!! • It's super effective! 23:14 10 Mar '12}

That means "That's obsolete. We use ban interpretive dance now". We're all arty and shit. Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 01:20, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

No. I mean, qué significa "ban interpretive dance"? -- This has been an automated message by Cute Zekrom (talk) 03:29, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

Perhaps this would go better if I explained it through the medium of interpretive dance. Anybody here remember the explainative interpretive dance? Sir Modusoperandi ^Boinc! 09:24, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

Emend is correct, actually. What are you, american? 1234 ~ 03:57, 10 March 2012

Actually, yeah. You're right. Yay, I'm one word closer to passing the SHSAT SAT! (Which means I am American.) -- Cute Zekrom! _{Use Fusion Bolt NOW!! • It's super effective!04:15 10 Mar '12}

Part 2: "Block'd" template

I was thinking that we should move the "Block'd!" sign in MediaWiki:Blockedtext to a template (Template:Block'd or something like that) and simply transclude it into the system message. This way, you could easily use it for other purposes such as how it's used on this article (or even spamming talk pages!) (or otherwise for satirical purposes). I can already see this template cropping up a lot on other articles. Yum.

I already saved a copy at User:Qzekrom/Block'd!. You can move it to the appropriate template page if you like my idea. -- This has been an automated message by Cute Zekrom (talk) 22:07, May 10, 2012 (UTC)
