NOTICE: this template is mostly "finished", but its presentation/style might change dramatically in the near future. Be careful!
Feel free to improve this template! We need it to look good in dark-mode.
BTW, if you use a screen-reader, please try it on the template and let us know of any problems!
It looks like you forgot to type a message!
Idea from here:
It should look like the actual/original Clippit is saying it inside a notice/info-box. I got the idea while writing this
This is kinda similar to cowsay.
This template can be used to make Clippy say anything you want, ideally something pro-consumer, in a format such as "It looks like you're trying to do X, do you want to do Y?". I see great potential in documentation pages, such as Help pages, where Clippy could be seen giving advice/tips about the wiki.
Examples
[edit source]
It seems like you want to use this template. Do you want help with that?
You can even use WikiText!
I would never send your data to Microsoft! (unless you ask me to)
