This is the template documentation page for ढाँचा:Editprotected.

This page is not necessarily intended to be viewed directly. If it uses variables, some links may appear broken. Do not replace these variables with hardcoded page names or URLs.

This template adds a page to Category:Wikipedia protected edit requests. It is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.

{{Editprotected}} is to be typed on the talkpage. Please make the request clear and specific as much as possible, and include a reason for the change. Provide the code if possible. Controversial requests, such as edits that are not in line with Wikipedia policy, and / or community consensus, may be refused.

The page on which the request is placed is automatically categorised into Category:Wikipedia protected edit requests. Administrators will check this category for protected edit requests to process. For faster service, consider additionally posting a request at WP:RPP.

This template is useful to edit pages that are "permanently" protected
