JzG's "private block template", just drips with self-importance Options

I thought of this idea a while back and was wondering who would be the first to think of it on WP and implement it. I should've known it would be Guy Chapman, the man who considers rampant instability and self-gratifying lectures to be assets to adminship.

Just LOOK at it. He is so fucking full of himself, it's infuriating! I've never seen anyone with such gall, anyone so convinced they're entitled to play Daddy with everyone they have power over.

I could care less about Guy's sysop bit at this point; I'm more concerned about the fact that this man is raising real live children, and I say that with absolutely no humor. I hope someone drums up a policy to forbid transcluding userspace in block messages (though since the idea originated here, it'll probably never happen :-D).

Lar, do you use your template in the block log field or just on talk pages? It's my impression that Guy's is for use in block messages, which to me is new, and I think should be forboden.

If yours is/was indeed for use in the block log, you should know that PAGENAME won't show their name, but rather the page they are trying to edit.

Just on talk pages, and I subst it and reedit to get round any substitution and variable problems. Note that PAGENAME there is the desired effect, it's a message TO the person and follows right after the Dear... One of the reasons I don't use it much is that it doesn't seem to actually save me any time

I didn't realise that JzG was referencing it from the block log. I put links to things in block logs but not things that would be likely to change so ya, it seems like it might not be a good idea to do that.
