MediaWiki talk:Protectedpagewarning

From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history


suggestion -- Njt (talk) 20:35, September 18, 2019 (EDT)[edit source | reply | new]

Consider adding a message stating requests should be made on the talk page. In the first line, "administrator privileges" could be linked to MEpedia:Administrators.

Please rename???[edit source | reply | new]

This page isn't being picked up. I believe it should be MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext User:Pyrrhus. There are also move warning messages (we could use {{int:Semiprotectedpagewarning}} etc to make these identical to the other messages though. It could be reworded to say "to prevent editing, renaming or other actions". The documentation on these pages names isn't complete so I'm not sure of the move message names, but the interface one is MediaWiki:Protectedinterface and could have either a gold padlock (Full protection), red or black (possibly with borders removed). An option would be to use Template:Protected to change the icon for each and standardize the layout, eg



Hope this makes sense. ~Njt (talk) 11:56, October 1, 2019 (EDT)

I checked again - looks like both pages might be needed after all. I don't get when the warning one is displayed since the text one is the only one I could see. ~Njt (talk) 16:07, October 1, 2019 (EDT)
Okay Njt, I just checked too and I see now what needs to be done. First, I will make some small changes to Template:Protect and have you review those changes.
