By the way, I was talking to Hydriz on IRC today about the template {{Warning}}. We both agreed that there should exist at least another template a little bit more soft for the first edit of an user. He said we should talk to you first, so I'm here. In my opinion, we should avoid using the word "disruption" and "blocked" at first sight. More correct would be pointing to the sister projects and continue with the tone of the first line that says "thanks" and explains clearly that the user has done something wrong. If this more soft message don't be enough to stop the user, then we can change it for a more severe as a second (and maybe final or other can be created) warning. What do you think?

I think it's great... maybe call it "SoftWarn" or something?

"SoftWarn" is a good title : )

Besides this, we need to get translations for these warning templates so that a wider audience can be reached. Should we add this translation request on Meta?

I have created {{SoftWarn}}. Please, do any change you believe to be necessary.

I made a couple of changes to it... one for grammar, and the other to the {{{Revisionuser}}} function. It was only working to direct people to the talk page of the last person who edited it. That's sort of fail. :( But otherwise, I love the language.

Nice! Hydriz and Pmlineditor are also being a lot helpful.
