Template talk:Warn
Other warning text suggestions
Here's what I think some other warnings should look like. Those are more akin to the warnings you see on products and in product manuals and use similar graphics and phrasing. I expected those will be dismissed as rubbish red tape by some experienced repair technicians but they are not the target, the target is someone inexperienced, probably a kid who stumbles across this wiki trying to fix a game console who has no clue what they're doing along with any lawyers and government regulators.
If you're happy with those I'll write the template code for them later this week.
Large banner div warnings
Those should only be necessary to put those on guide pages that directly give safety advice about a topic (example)
Medium box warnings
Those could probably be put at the top of the disassembly notes or in an infobox under the device infobox on the right hand side of the page. (example)
DANGER This device has exposed high voltage and intentionally defeats earth leakage circuit breakers. |
WARNING This device contains a high voltage CRT. |
CAUTION This device is mains powered. |
NOTE This device is subject to strict regulations in some regions, modifications may be unlawful. |
Small in-line warnings
For use in instructions about specific things (now sure how much people would use those but they could be useful)
DANGER Capacitor C5 is 2 kV 125 μF (300 J).
WARNING Those 450 V capacitors do not have bleeder resistors.
CAUTION This heatsink has very sharp edges.
