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.

== Parameters ==
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.
 
  
The Template {{tlx|ESp}} is also useful.  In particular, {{tlx|ESp|?}} is very commonly needed, to respond to insufficiently specific requests.
