Newcomers should be treated with love, patience, tolerance and understanding. Don't be so rough on them. Please use {{subst:welcometest}}
for newcomers who haven't been welcomed and who are making tests (more often known as vandalism), and give them an opportunity to be able to actually read the message. Going straight to a block warning is kind of too rough. Using the test warning template series is also advisable. Hugs, Thinker78 (talk) 07:45, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Thinker78: Yeah sorry I was a bit too harsh off the bat, I just saw the several edits that all constituted vandalism and wasn't thinking straight and went to the only warning template. -glove- (talk • contribs • email) 23:00, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
- For some reason I didn't get notification of your ping. I just noticed your reply by browsing through the watchlist. Btw, ty for your reply! Thinker78 (talk) 00:31, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
Please review your signature
Hi, something happened on AIV which broke your signature - I'd appreciate it if you reviewed your signature to ensure it complies with WP:SIG (especially WP:SIG#NT, as there was a switch in use) -- There'sNoTime (to explain) 09:57, 28 November 2017 (UTC)
- @There'sNoTime: Hmm. That's strange? The markup for the signature is here and with it's output [[User:-glove-|-glove-]] ([[User_talk:-glove-|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/-glove-|contribs]] • [[Special:EmailUser/-glove-|{{SUBST:abbr|email|I will email back from my alternate account's email}}]])
-glove- (talk • contribs • email)
I disabled it for now(although it was still used on the section above for some reason), I assume that the problem was because I used the abbr template, which is fine since I'm gonna disable the email feature anyways, but now I notice that the talk page link isn't working? It was working on the AIV page but now on the code for this and on the talk page section above this is, it doesn't seem to work. Could you possibly help as to why it isn't working? (the code for it without the email is down here)

- So I checked the default talk page link and apparently I need #top at the end of the link. I didn't have this before but now it seems to want it? Was there a recent change that modified talk pages? (working one bellow)
