Usage

Paste the code below with "subst:" in front of "Moratorium." This puts the contents of the template on the user's talk page, rather than a template that can change.

Code
{{Moratorium Violation}}

So, an admin using this template should put "{{subst:Moratorium Violation}}" on a violator's talk page.

Purpose

To provide an easy and stock-standard message for explaining the moratorium policy to editors who have violated it.
