Honestly, I've seen them abused in the past, and I would personally prefer if non-mods would just state their objection (''politely and impassionately''), rather than using the template. It doesn't look good if we have multiple editors jumping on a new editor for the same mistake, and using unprofessional warning reasons.}} | Honestly, I've seen them abused in the past, and I would personally prefer if non-mods would just state their objection (''politely and impassionately''), rather than using the template.

Especially when it comes to new editors, be polite and err on the side of "honest mistake".

If there are any objections to this, please state them in this forum thread.}} | |||
