== Usage ==
 
Place {{tld|editsemiprotected}} on a talk page to request an edit of the corresponding article page. It should be accompanied by a clear and specific description of the requested change.  Providing the new sentences or code in your request, that may be copied directly into the page, will expedite the process.
 
 
 
== Recommended action upon resolution ==
 
Once a request is handled, it's best to leave the {{tld|editsemiprotected}} tag as an un-transcluded tag by changing it to, for example, {{tld|tlx|editsemiprotected}}.  This removes the message box from the talk page and removes the talk page from the category, while still leaving a record of the request.

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

To request an edit to a semi-protected page, place this template on the corresponding talk page by writing {{edit semi-protected}}. The template should be accompanied by a clear and specific description of the requested change. For any change that might be controversial, obtain consensus before placing the template. See Wikipedia:Edit requests for further guidance.

Usage

Basic usage
{{Edit semi-protected}}
Specify pages to be edited
{{Edit semi-protected|First page to be edited|Second page to be edited|...}}
Deactivate a request
{{Edit semi-protected|answered=yes}}
All parameters
{{Edit semi-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.

Responding to requests

See Wikipedia:Edit requests#Responding to requests.
