Template:Non-admin comment/doc

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

< Template:Non-admin comment

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Non-admin comment.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Usage

Can be optionally employed where the commentator feels a need to clarify that one is making a comment more than an observation, but is not in the position to make any actions.

This template is optional; there is no requirement for non-admins to identify themselves as such on any page, although in certain situations, it may be helpful to do so.
This template is only for your own comments; it must never be added to someone else's comments.
Except in certain limited cases where an admin must make the final decision (for example, WP:RFPP), the views of administrators and editors who are not administrators should be given equal weight. This is especially true in discussions regarding article content.
This template should be added to the end of the comment to avoid prejudgment.

Parameters

{{Non-admin comment|admin}} or {{Non-admin comment|sysop}} produces (Non-administrator comment)
{{Non-admin comment|bag}} produces (Non-BAG member comment)
{{Non-admin comment|crat}} or {{Non-admin comment|bureaucrat}} produces (Non-bureaucrat comment)
{{Non-admin comment|cu}} or {{Non-admin comment|checkuser}} produces (Non-checkuser comment)
{{Non-admin comment|host}} produces (Non-host comment)
{{Non-admin comment|[something else here]}} produces (Non-[something else here] comment)
{{Non-admin comment|2=X}} produces (Non-administrator X)
{{Non-admin comment|cu|observation}} produces (Non-checkuser observation)
