__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__

Usage

Some topics have been designated as a community contentious topic.

Alerts ensure a user knows what is expected of them. Alerts are a neutral courtesy; never use them to intimidate, coerce, or shame another editor.

To alert a user, open a new section on their user talk page. Paste the following code into it, replacing topic code – see list with the corresponding code from the table below. Type an appropriate subject line, then save the page.

{{subst:Gs/alert|topic code here – select from list }} ~~~~
