Category:Templates/rarely used

{{alcoholic}}

Primarily for personal use or among friends. Use {{drugfriend}} where more appropriate.

{{aup}}

{{bancakes}}

A friendly alternative to other ban templates.

{{bidness}}

{{cease}}

Vibrant alternative to

STOP. doing whatever

{{cp}}

To be used only when someone has actually attempted to upload child pornography. Similar to {{kidporn}} and {{pedo}}, both of which probably apply to anyone who is marked with this template.

{{denial}}

Much less-frequently used alternative to {{satire}}. ED is satire. Users very frequently don't get this.

{{disappointed}}

The polar opposite of {{like}} and roughly the opposite of {{approve}}. Use as a gentle way to inform users that they need to not do certain things like add strikeouts, vandalize the pages of important people, etc.

{{drugfriend}}

Popular among friends, use {{alcoholic}} when more appropiate.

{{Furry/Welcome}}

Furries have been a source of much humor on this site, but as a furry you must understand:

• We are a humor and satire site. Would a supermarket tabloid try to make furries look good?
• The depiction of a furry as someone who just likes nonsexual anthromorphic comics and kiddie costumes is boring.
• The depiction of a furry who is into lots of freaky sex related to furry fandom and likes sexual-looking animal costumes is more interesting.
• The depiction of a furry who is into lots of freaky sex related to furry fandom while going around claiming they just like nonsexual anthromorphic comics as well as starting huge flame wars and making lots of drama to cover it up (e.g. ContiE) is even more interesting.
• Someone who the fandom is embarrassed of like WolfJLupus, Ebon Lupus, Shadowfox, and CigarSkunk is also entertaining to read about.
• We don't spread Furluminati propaganda here.
• Two kind of furries are not allowed here: those who yiff and those who whine about other people's generalizations about the fandom.
• ED currently has a don't ask, don't tell policy on yiffing.

Furries are encouraged to spread lulz about furries on this website.

Plenty of furries with potential for lulz-generation come to ED. Don't be an asshole; {{welcome}} them with this template.

{{grudgewank}}

Use to supplement {{dummies}} and/or a ban threat for users who make stupid Exhibit B shit.

{{hateapes}}

Good for expressing personal butthurt or letting a user know that their article was tagged with {{crap}} or {{shit}} due to fail. Probably underused because it isn't that funny.

{{help}}

Great template to use for users who make large or detailed editions to an article that, while well-intentioned, end up violating ED's guidelines.

{{inside}}

There are some terrible inside jokes on ED. Some are alright, but others are simply bad. This is currently only used on a few pages, so make sure to use only where appropriate.

{{Internet_Jail}}

Currently used on only two pages on ED, possibly for good reason. If not used more often in the very near future, this template will surely go the way of the buffalo.

{{kidporn}}

Use this or {{pedo}} either on your own page (fucking sicko), a known pedo's page, or on the pages of the likely-permabanned users who tried to upload CP as a warning to other pedophiles. Either this template or {{cp}} are more appropriate for the lattermost.

{{learnyourplace}}

A friendly template with a very unfriendly name. Use as an alternative to

HAI 2 U Gosh, you sure seem enthusiastic, but it looks like you haven't gotten the hang of ED quite yet. But fear not! The other editors are always sometimes happy to help you out, whether it be by showing you the ropes of wiki-markup or giving you style tips. Feel free to ask by leaving a note on their talk page! Don't suffer in silence! REMEMBER, YOU'RE THE VICTIM!!!11

{{niggerlover}}

More of a joke template among friends rather than a banned-user vandalism template, unless they are really asking for it.

{{pedo}}

Use this or {{kidporn}} either on your own page (fucking sicko), a known pedo's page, or on the pages of the likely-permabanned users who tried to upload CP as a warning to other would-be pedophiles. This is more appropriate for the former two. Quite appropriate for pages such as "Mrpedophile"'s talk page.

{{stopnow}}

{{Squote}}

Apply to long quotes for keeping pages clean.

{{tname}}

{{tname}}

Easy way to displays the name of a template without having to use <nowiki> or [[:Template:whatever|whatever]]. Use as {{tname|whatever}}. (Ironically, we are not using it in this article)

{{underage}}

Use on your own page or on the page of someone who this really makes sense for.

{{userpotential}}

Denotes a new user that has great potential. This template is based off and lightly parodizes the article template {{potential}}. This template was created in May 2009 and inspired by one user's early impression of a recent addition to the ED community.

{{wikifail}}

Someone who consistently breaks pages by fucking up wiki-markup code earns this template on their user or talk page.

{{wikify}}

Use on articles that have some potential but currently amount to little more than blocks of copy-pasted text.

{{ytplus}}

Produces an embedded YouTube video with a title and trailing quotation. Extremely useful and extremely underutilized. Usage: {{ytplus|Title|<youtube>-viDe_0</youtube>|Quotation|Quote author (optional) |Quote source (optional)}}
