a rainbow trout fish

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Usage

Apply this template to the user talk page of someone who thoroughly deserves a whacking with a wet trout. This template is intended for humorous use only!

How to use

Place {{trout}} on the talk page of the user you wish to communicate with. This will produce the above message.

See also

• {{itrout}} – an inline icon sized trout
• {{minnow}} – a smaller version, though still centered and intrusive enough to send the message
• {{trout small}} – a more reasonably sized, less-intrusive, left-aligned trout, suitable for trout victims to use as a replacement after getting the message
• {{trout me}} – a small auto-trout icon for the top of your userpage
• {{self-trout}} – a {{facepalm}}-style trout for when you realize that you've done something silly yourself
• {{multitrout}} – for when multiple users need to be trouted
• {{self-whale}} – when a trout just isn't enough
• {{chips}} – a small side of chips to go with your fish
• {{whale}} – which may be used for those editors who deserve more severe approbation equal to that of wiping out an endangered species
• If the target user doesn't like fish or chips, but you still think they did something silly, consider summoning the {{colonel}} instead
• {{OverdoneTrout}} – a response to use against those who overzealously use the {{trout}} template
• {{whalemeat}} – if the Wikiwhale is overzealously used too often
