Suggest showing a sample template

When visiting Template:Edit template-protected, I notice the template doesn't render at all. Might be worth getting it to display on that page so people can see what it looks like. Or alternatively, could put examples of both open and answered in the documentation. Thanks. –Novem Linguae (talk) 15:07, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 7 April 2023

It is requested that an edit be made to the extended-confirmed-protected template at Template:Edit template-protected.
(edit · history · last · links · sandbox · edit sandbox · sandbox history · sandbox last edit · sandbox diff · test cases · transclusion count · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any extended confirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{EEp}} template in the response. Consider making changes first to the template's sandbox and test them thoroughly here before submitting an edit request. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
