Template documentationviewedithistorypurge

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.
• <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|answered= or <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|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.
• <syntaxhighlight lang="wikitext" inline style="display: none;" />|demo= – Set this to "yes", "y", "true" or "1" to demonstrate the template. This suppresses categories and namespace checks.
