Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Drowning. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Thank you.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Drowning, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. Lord Belbury (talk) 19:09, 4 September 2022 (UTC)

Template dates are to show when a problem was first reported, they are not meant to be updated to record the most recent step taken to resolve it. --Lord Belbury (talk) 07:54, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
