{{mbox templates}}
This is the {{tl|tmbox}}, or '''talk page message box''', meta-template. This templateIt is called by other templatesused to give a consistent structure and appearance to boilerplate messages usedwhich appear on talk pages across the project. While Itit ''may''can be called directly, onit ais talkprimarily pageincorporated ininto order(and toshould presentalways abe one-offused message inon) the sametemplates format asof boilerplate messages, but this is non-standard (if a message is important enoughintended to be presentedused inon thistalk form, you should consider creating a separate template so that it is easily available to other editors)pages. Tmbox offers several different colors for different purposes, provides default images if no image parameter is given, and has some other pleasant features. This template works similarly to {{tl|ambox}} and uses the same parameters.
This template should not be used for WikiProject banners. Such banners have special programming constraints that merit their own meta-templates. See the "See also" section below for links.

=== We are deploying! ===
After discussions on the [[Template talk:Tmbox|talk page]] of this template and announcing it at several places for some time we are now deploying this template. Feel free to convert any message boxes used on talk pages to use this meta-template. If you find any tricky cases then list them on the talk page of this template and you'll get help.
When this template is used to build talk page message boxes those boxes should contain explanatory texts just like before. (The same texts as before or new improved texts.) If there are more specific images in the boxes or you know a better image, then use them instead of the default images shown here.
=== Suggested style standard ===
