WikiFur:Templates/Protection Templates

These templates are for use by curators on pages when they are locked for protection. Please contact an curator if you feel a page needs protection.

Template Name	Example	Where to use
{{Protected-Vandal}} Vandal Protection	This page has been locked because of ongoing vandalism. This page will be unlocked when a curator deems it safe to do so. Until the vandalism has abated, you may discuss its contents on the article's discussion page. At this time, only colleagues can edit and/or unlock this page.	This tag will be used when a page has been subject to Vandalism and needs protecting for its own safety. It will eventually be removed when interest in the page has lowered.
{{Protected-Dispute}} Dispute Protection	This article has been locked due to a dispute over the content. Until the dispute has been resolved, please discuss its contents on the article's discussion page. At this time, only colleagues can edit and/or unlock this page.	This tag will be used when a page covers a subject that is highly disputed, and agreement has not yet been reached, leading to edit wars. Once agreement over its content is approved, the page will be unlocked.
{{Protected-WikiFur Central}} Listed on the WikiFur Central page	This page has been locked since it is currently on WikiFur Central. You may talk about its contents on the discussion page. At this time, only colleagues can edit and/or unlock this page.	Pages listed on the WikiFur Central page as featured articles are often subject to vandalism since many people will end up seeing them. This tag will be placed on pages while they are listed to ensure they remain safe during their time on show. It and the protection will be removed after being taken down from WikiFur Central.
{{Protected-System}} System Pages	This article has been protected since it contains important information. You may talk about its contents on the discussion page. The content of this page should not be changed except by colleagues.	Pages marked with this tag contain important information about the wiki and are most likely going to be locked perminantly. In some places where it would be inappropriate to put this tag on the page itself, (like the Main Page) it will be placed on the article's talk page instead.
{{Protected-Excluded}} Excluded people	This article left blank by request. The subject of this article has contacted WikiFur and asked not to be included. To respect their privacy, we have blanked and protected this page. If you are the subject and wish to be unexcluded, please contact a curator.	This tag is for pages about people who have decided that they do not wish to be included in WikiFur, and the pages have been blanked and protected.
