Use cases

Alerts are for highlighting an important feature or change to a service. They are not generally just for breaking up text. Usually, only one alert box can be used on a page. 

The blue version is for permanent alerts and the pink version for temporary/emergency backgrounds, or to highlight an emergency number.

Changeable elements

The blue or pink colouring - as long as it fits the use cases mentioned above.

Whether there is background shading or not. Please note the shaded versions cannot be used on pages with sidebars.

The text - though this must start with a header and contain no more than three short paragraphs.
