[edit] Usage
All parameters are optional; any ignored parameter will automagically default to generic wording. There are two syntaxes (usage methods) that can be used with this template, a simple and an expert syntax. Note that this template automatically adds any page it's used on to Category:Wikipedia:Indefinitely blocked users; however, this can be prevented by using the hidden parameter category and leaving it blank ({{s/block3|category=}}).
Simple syntax: The simple syntax is appropriate for most uses, and can be manually written with relative ease. However, this syntax does not allow the use of pipes (|) or equal signs (=); this means that diff links and will not work.
Expert syntax: The expert syntax is slightly more complex, but allows all symbols to be used in the text. This means that diff links and complex signatures can be used without problem. This syntax is most appropriate for use with tools that automatically fill out the template syntax for you.
