I'm afraid you can't just take other people's talk page codes. You need to ask {{u|Werdnae}} or I if you want to use either of our talk page templates. But please try to be creative and create your own. Also, use the preview button please. <sup>[[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup>[[User:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">Jo the Marten</span>]]<sup>[[Flygon (Pokémon)|<span style="color:#C00;">★</span>]]</sup> [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|<span style="color:#C00;">ಠ_ಠ</span>]][[Cilan (anime)|<span style="color:#90C870;">♥</span>]] 23:51, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

==Talk page customisation and good manners==
Stop on the talk page customisation for now. While it doesn't fall under the userspace limit, It's still considered personal content, so you need to keep personal edits to a minimum and balance them with mainspace contributions. You've made 17 edits like that today, which is more than three times the ''total'' number of mainspace edits you have made. Again, we are an encyclopedia, not a Facebook/Google+. You need to balance out all personal edits, regardless of whether they are userspace or user talk space, with mainspace edits. If you fail to do so, I'll be forced to protect this page. Also, as far as making a good first impression goes, stealing someone else's work without even asking is a very bad way of doing it. You must ''always'' ask before you use other people's work. If you had asked, I would have told you that you could use my code and change it to give it your personal style. Since you didn't, you may ''refer'' to my code, without copying it, to learn how it works. If you want to use my code as a base, you'll have to figure out how it's working and build it yourself. Also, for the record, you need to have been a member for at least 6 months, and generally have made over 500 mainspace edits before you're even eligible for a JA position. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 01:08, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
