Template talk:ISP

message: This template is unfriendly and the stuff in it about "IT staff" is pretentious.  I made an attempt to tone it down but Netsnipe reverted .  I'd like to undo the reversion.  Just because (per Netsnipe's edit summary) it's not a welcome template doesn't mean it should be written in a way that makes users feel unwelcome.  Discussion is solicited.

message: ISPs are in the industry of IT, and not every IT person working for an ISP would be able to do anything about abuse. Since this template is for ISP shared proxies, may I recommend we change it to "abuse staff?" PCHS-NJROTC (Messages) 02:16, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Seems fine the way it is since it says "your Internet service provider or IT department". Oh, I see what you mean.  I don't think "abuse staff" sounds right though. - Rjd0060 (talk) 21:37, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Abuse staff is also very "tech industry". I know a few people who have totally different ideas if I ask them what an "abuse staff" is :D I don't think it really matters much what we have there. There are much more important things. —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 22:44, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: I expect after the future of SharedIPCORP is determined, a WP:UTM subpage for these is built, and a naming convention is determined. It's on the to-do list, but since it only affects the back end, for me it's not as urgent. The UW templates need meta templates too, and that's a higher priority right now. I agree it might be desirable, but there's a lot to do. --Bsherr (talk) 15:13, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
