Template:Edit Template-protected

This template is placed on a talk page to request an edit of the corresponding template-protected template or a module. The template should be accompanied by a clear and specific description of the requested change, and consensus should be obtained before the template is added. Please see Wikipedia:Edit requests for guidance, especially if this is the first time you are making an edit request.


Usage

Basic usage
{{Edit template-protected}}
Specify pages to be edited
{{Edit template-protected|First page to be edited|Second page to be edited|...}}
Specify pages in a different namespace (e.g. modules with a centralised talk page located in the Template talk space)
{{Edit template-protected|Module:ModuleName|...}}
Deactivate a request
{{Edit template-protected|answered=yes}}
All parameters
{{Edit template-protected|First page to be edited|Second page to be edited|Third page to be edited|...|answered=|demo=}}

Parameters

All parameters are optional:

  • positional parameters – Specify pages to be edited. You can add an unlimited number of pages.
  • |answered= or |ans= – Set this to "yes", "y", "true" or "1" to mark the edit request as answered. This removes the page from the edit request category.
  • |demo= – Set this to "yes", "y", "true" or "1" to demonstrate the template. This suppresses categories and namespace checks.
