Please warn users making unconstructive edits

Hello and thank you for recently undoing unconstructive edits. In the future, when you undo unconstructive edits, could you please use the appropriate template to warn the user (IP or registered) to stop their behaviour?

There are many different warning templates available to use. Here are some common ones; please see their documentation pages for instructions:

Each time we use these warnings they should be placed under the title "==July 2024==" (updated to the current month and year), on the user's talk page. Beyond those listed above, there are also higher level warnings for continued unconstructive editing (see the template documentation for details); if previous warnings have been given under that title, add the next level warning beneath the others, within that section. Individual cases must be dealt with as seems appropriate. If the user has not been actively unconstructively editing for a few weeks or months, start a new section. It may sometimes be appropriate to cut to the chase and use:

The value of warning is three-fold:

If a vandal is on a spree or has reached a level 4 vandalism warning and is currently active, waste no time in reporting them to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism.

Thanks again for helping to protect articles on Wikipedia. Happy editing! 🙂 ~~~~
