User talk:Davidwr/header

DO NOT EDIT THIS PAGE It is NOT my "talk" page.
You probably want to edit User talk:Davidwr instead.

This is transcluded into User talk:Davidwr.
It is separate so I can change it without affecting people's watch-list.

'''Todo list:'''
*Look at [[Talk:Cross-docking]]
*Create a "dummy" template to put on user talk pages that puts the page in a list of "IP or non-autoconfirmed editor who may need urgent editing help based on recent edits"  The template would "expire" after 1 hour.  Behavior during first hour:  Add user talk page to a maintenance category that editors can watch.  Behavior after 1 hour:  Add to a different maintenance category that basically tells a not-yet-written bot to remove it as expired.  Basically, this is a not-in-your-face combination of "this editor may need training, OR this editor may need blocking, but either way attention is needed immediately."
*{{Update after|2020|12|14||reason=Check my own coversation|text=Check up on [[Talk:FTWZ#"List of Free Trade Zones" proposed new requirements]]}}
*Turn [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk%3AWikiProject_Articles_for_creation&type=revision&diff=985185039&oldid=985180411 this] into a user-space essay on [[WP:IAR]], its application, and the heavy responsibility that comes with doing things out of process.  '''tl;dnr:''' When you do it, do it with humility, only do it if you are 110% sure you are right to invoke it, go back back later to make sure you were right, and fix it if you were wrong.
