Usage

This template assists documentation of a user warning template by listing all of the templates in that series. For example, a series might be named "Uw-vandalism" (containing {{uw-vandalism1}}, {{uw-vandalism2}}, {{uw-vandalism3}}, {{uw-vandalism4}}, and {{uw-vandalism4im}}. To use the template for a normal series like uw-vandalism, use the syntax:

This will produce

Part of the uw-vandalism user warning series
Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Level 4	Level 4im
{{uw-vandalism1}}	{{uw-vandalism2}}	{{uw-vandalism3}}	{{uw-vandalism4}}	{{uw-vandalism4im}}

For the uw-test series, there is no {{uw-test4}} (one should use {{uw-vandalism4}} instead), and there is no 4im level for testing edits. To indicate a template out of the series, write that name of that template in the place of "1", "2", "3", "4", or "4im". To indicate that there is no template that describes a particular edit (at all), leave that parameter blank. So

will yield

Part of the uw-test user warning series
Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Level 4	Level 4im
{{uw-test1}}	{{uw-test2}}	{{uw-test3}}	Use {{uw-vandalism4}}	N/A
