Template documentation follows
Note: the template above may sometimes be partially or fully invisible.
Visit "Template:Public user/doc" to edit its documentation if it is available. (How does this work?)

Usage

Alternative account policy
This template confirms that the user is familiar with Wikipedia policy on using multiple accounts and the account will not be used for sock puppetry.

This template can be used on user pages to show people that the account is used to maintain security on public computers. It links to the actual user's page and their talk page.

This template will correct itself based on the gender set in the preferences of your real user account (i.e. in the sentence "Please contact Example to inform them that this account has been compromised ", "them" will change to "him" or "her").

Parameters

This template has a username parameter. This code:

{{Public user|example}}

Will produce:

This user is an alternative account for Example.
It is a legitimate alternative account, used to edit this wiki on public computers to maintain security.
If this account is making suspicious edits, please contact Example to inform them that this account has been compromised.
Any comments should be posted on Example's talk page.
