ANNOUNCEMENT NOTICE SCHEME[edit]

Revised, March 2014.

Just copy everything highlighted in the source-code box below to this talk page's associated base page and edit accordingly.

When an announcement already exists, just copy, paste & edit another {{Display/watchlist}} template after the existing one but before the closing </ul> tag.


<ul id="watchlist-message">
{{Display/watchlist
 |until  = 19 March 2014	<!-- a date to stop displaying announcement whether dismissed or not -->
 |cookie = 100			<!-- cookie-id counter; incremented by +1 for every new announcement -->
 |text   = Message goes here!	<!-- The announcement is entered here -->
}}
</ul>


NOTE: When changing the message (rather than just correcting it or updating it), please increment the number at the "| cookie = " parameter in the above in order to rename and invalidate any previous dismiss-cookies.

Please amend the count below for those who are to follow in your footsteps. -- George Orwell III (talk) 10:56, 22 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Amend counter[edit]

Next available cookie number: 107
