Remove "also" as described here. Also remove NOINDEX as user pages and user talk pages are not indexed by default. Toadette (Let's discuss together!) 11:31, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

Can you please add File:Wikimedia-globalblock.svg to the template so it can look like this, kinda like what's on the Template:Sockpuppet/sandbox? 167.205.23.115 (talk) 03:39, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit template-protected}}template. I don't see this icon on the sandbox page or the testcases page, and I don't know that it matches the intent of this template. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:56, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

According to community consensus displayed in the second paragraph of the lead of Wikipedia:Edit filter, Special:AbuseLog is generally referred to as "filter log" instead of "abuse log" which carries negative connotations. Therefore, I suggest that the display name of the piped link on this template be changed to "filter log". Ascchrvalstr (talk) 10:24, 22 July 2026 (UTC)
- Just a note, if this request is completed, the following other templates should likely be edited in a similar fashion:
- {{Compromised account}}
- {{WMF-legal banned user}}
- {{Sock-copyvio}}

Done at all four templates. I have changed the link text to "edit filter log" to match the name of the page itself. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:44, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
