Template:New edit request
This template must be substituted. Replace {{New edit request ...}} with {{subst:New edit request ...}}.
 | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:New edit request}}). Any accidental transclusions will be automatically substituted by a bot. |
This template inserts a new edit request, complete with a heading including today's date. It should only be used on talk pages, and it must always be substituted.
Usage
- Implicit parameters
{{subst:new edit request|<!-- type of request -->|<!-- request content -->}}
- Explicit parameters
{{subst:new edit request
|1= <!-- type of request -->
|2= <!-- request content -->
}}
This template has two positional parameters. The first specifies the type of edit request to be made, and the second is the content of the request. If your request code contains an equals sign, you must declare the parameters explicitly. Otherwise, the template will likely not include your request text at all - see the examples below.
The first parameter can take the following values:
request edit,coi- these produce {{Edit COI}}, used for edits where the requester has a conflict of interest.semi,semiprotected,semi-protected,edit semiprotected,edit semi-protected- these produce {{edit semi-protected}}, used by non-autoconfirmed users for edits to semi-protected pages.full,editprotected,edit protected,sudo- these produce {{edit protected}}, used by non-administrators for edits to fully-protected pages. This is the default value.

| Implicit parameters with equals sign |

If your edit request includes an equals sign, but you use implicit parameters, the template will break. In this example, the template assumes there is a parameter named " The following code:
Produces: Edit request on 30 May 2025
Lua error in Module:Effective_protection_level at line 63: attempt to index field 'TitleBlacklist' (a nil value). |
| Explicit parameters |
|---|
|
For code containing an equals sign to display properly, declare the positional parameters explicitly. The following code:
Produces: Edit request on 30 May 2025
Lua error in Module:Effective_protection_level at line 63: attempt to index field 'TitleBlacklist' (a nil value). Please add my_parameter=yes to the template. Example (talk) 07:15, 30 May 2025 (UTC) |
