Template:Protected page maintenance message

Template documentation

Template:High use This convenience template is used to allow for a switchable statement to be easily placed in the code of maintenance templates such as {{Expand section}} or {{Missing information}}. If a page is protected, any user who cannot edit the page will be given a link to make an edit request rather than the default text.

This template takes one mandatory input, an unnamed parameter that will be the unprotected/default text seen by editors. If there are =s in the parameter, use |1= to enter the text.

A second optional input will give custom text to display for the users who cannot edit. Defaults to making an edit request if |2= is not given

Editors can experiment in this template's sandbox (create | mirror) and testcases (create) pages.
