<!-- PLEASE ADD CATEGORIES AND INTERWIKIS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS PAGE -->
This template is used to request edits to a [[WP:SEMI|semi-protected]] article on that article's talk page.

==Usage==
Make a new section on the article talk page with a title like "Edit request" and place the code
{{tld|edit semi-protected}}
accompanied by a clear and specific description of the requested change as well as [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] for the change.

Providing the new sentences or code in your request to be copied directly into the page will expedite the process.

==Recommended action upon resolution==
Once a request is handled, add "'''done'''" as an un-named parameter to the template:
{{tld|edit semi-protected|done}}
This will remove the message box from the talk page and also remove the talk page from the category, while still leaving a record of the request.

You may use {{tlx|ESp}} when responding to requests for edits to semi-protected pages. For example, {{tld|ESp|?}} is convenient for responding to insufficiently specific requests.

==Note==
[[MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext]] has a "Submit an edit request" link which for semi-protected pages uses
*[[Template:Edit semi-protected/preload]]
*[[Template:Edit semi-protected/editintro]]

to preload text into the edit request's editbox, and to show instructions.

==See also==
*{{tlx|edit protected}} — Use this template to request changes to a page that has been [[WP:FULL|fully protected]].
