TEMPLATE:PLEASE PING

(please mention me on reply)

Template documentation[ view] [ ] [ history] [ purge]

This template should preferably be substituted.

This template is intended to be used when you are replying on a high-volume discussion page, and intend not to add the page to your watchlist, instead expecting people to link to your user page when replying to you. It may be either substituted or transcluded, but is better substituted, as it will include your username and help talk pages load faster.

Usage

:::: Your message {{subst:Please ping}} ~~~~

This will display (please use {{ reply to|Example}} on reply).

When used without substituting, it will display (please mention me on reply).
