{{editprotected}} Please change the icon from the blue icon to the orange icon, thank you. On the English Wikipedia, it shows the orange icon. Qwertyxp2000 (talk) 09:19, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

We don't use orange icons, but we may do in the future. We don't "automatically" follow En, so we'd need to gain some consensus regarding that! :) --George (Talk · Contribs · CentralAuth · Log) 15:26, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

The following discussion is preserved as an archive. Please do not change it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No more changes should be made to this discussion.

Since there is already an existing discussion on {{uw-agf3}}, and the results of the discussion there may affect the contents of this template, please keep the discussion to one place, at Template talk:Uw-agf3 first. When that is settled, then we can come back here to request changes. Chenzw Talk 03:33, 19 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Please change the whole message to "Please assume good faith when talking with other editors. Assuming bad faith creates a bad experience for other editors, which might make them leave Wikipedia. Assume that they are here to improve rather than harm Wikipedia. Thank you.". Qwertyxp2000 (talk | changes) 00:33, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Or maybe "Please assume good faith when talking with other editors. Assuming bad faith creates a bad experience for other editors, which might make them leave Wikipedia. Please assume that they are here to improve rather than harm Wikipedia. Thank you." Qwertyxp2000 (talk | changes) 00:40, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Please get consensus for this change. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 05:00, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

I agree with it. I am on my phone now but will explain later. Computer Fizz (talk) 23:43, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Auntof6: How? Is there nothing wrong with a single-sentenced message? And I apologise with my misclarification, I was meaning "Change all of the words in the message into whatever the message I was stating". Qwertyxp2000 (talk | changes) 09:06, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

There is also ongoing discussion at Template talk:Uw-agf3, where I stated that I propose moving the stuff from the current agf3 template to this agf2 template, then replacing the agf3 stuff with a better message that states about how serious assuming bad faith would be.

How? By having a discussion about the wording before you ask for it to be changed. You could have the discussion here and publicize it at Simple talk. The wording in the warning templates is the result of a good amount of thought and should be discussed before being changed. Since it's sort of being discussed at the other template, how about leaving this one until that discussion is resolved?

By the way, it's not necessary to reinstate the template for me to see your reply. --Auntof6 (talk) 10:17, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Then what about discussion of that other template? Please discuss that too; otherwise how am I supposed to agree with your "Sort this out later"? Qwertyxp2000 (talk | changes) 22:39, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

Isn't it being sufficiently discussed without my input? You could mention the discussion in case there are others interested in participating. The reason I thought we should wait is that the discussion there is making suggestions about how both templates should be worded. It doesn't make sense to discuss it in two places. --Auntof6 (talk) 23:19, 18 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
