What's the difference between this and the other template? Quadzilla99 20:25, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: From what I can see, the ability to specify the reason for protection directly in the template. Looks a touch more modern as well, perhaps? PhoenixTwo 21:07, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

text: It's mostly an overhaul, as sprotected was using for many kinds of protections, it was redirected to the generic type, see above the new templates. →AzaToth 21:15, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

text: Fixed, thanks for the input. →AzaToth 21:47, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

text: Whoops, missed those, I'll look into it later →AzaToth 00:19, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Was looking at this and saw that editing is disabled  "because lorem ipsum dolor sit amet". Is this just jibberish? Even if it isn't, I would assume most people wouldn't understand it...
:This is just the template, the "bacuse" is just an example text. the protection notice for the protection of this page you see in the top corner. →AzaToth 23:06, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I thought it was vandalism to the template, when I saw that text for the first time. Where is the "lorem ipsum" placeholder text specified? Using something more descriptive like "(insert reason here)" would be more helpful. - Brian Kendig 16:57, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nonsensical? 

message: For articles that are protected with this template (small=yes) as well as featured, the 2 icons in the top right corner overlap.  See "Weird Al" Yankovic for example.  Just wondering if this could be fixed at all?  ~~ Gromreaper(Talk)/(Cont) 03:21, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Slight problem 

message: The little icon is too subtle and it is confusing to anon and new editors. Without some kind of text saying that the page is locked they won't know why they can't edit the page. They can't even "try" to edit the page like if they are blocked because the "edit this page" tab is replaced with "view source" which is confusing to many people. I think that the lock icon needs to be slightly larger and more noticeable along with some kind of text based notice so that they know why the page is protected. What do others think? -- Hdt83  Chat 06:13, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If you just turn off the small=yes parameter in the protection template, the article will have a nice messagebox explaining that the article is semiprotected.  That is the default.  The icon is only meant for (more rare) situations where the article will be protected for a long time. It's meant to be subtle. CMummert · talk 12:56, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Small lock icon in corner is too subtle 

message: The other pp-templates have 20px for the small lock size. Can someone change the size for the small icon to 20px so all the pp-templates match? -- Hdt83  Chat 02:46, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done. Cheers. --MZMcBride 03:51, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Change lock icon size 

message: This template uses the PAGENAME magic word to sort pages in categories, which ignores the namespace, thus allowing talk pages and user pages to be mixed up with articles. I just noticed that this messes up the action of the DEFAULTSORT magic word. See for example George Washington, which appears in the semi-protection category under 'G', but under 'W' in all its other categories. Is this a problem? If so, what is the best solution?

thread_title:  PAGENAME and DEFAULTSORT magic words 

message: If |small=yes, the template should be small, no matter whether an expiry has been specified or not.  I recommend the following changes:

-{{#ifeq:ʁ|yesʁ
+</noinclude>{{#ifeq:|yes
|

- rect 0 0 1000 1000 This page has been semi-protected from editing

 desc none

replies: text: The templates are designed for expiry to triumph over small, as small should never be used for a non-indefinite protection. →AzaToth 22:37, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

text: Also, you must know that you cannot use parameters in imagemap. →AzaToth 22:38, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Indeed.  Well, I guess that makes sense; if there's any fallout over the extra clutter, I'll either keep on keeping on or have  omit the |expiry parameter (which would be unfortunate; it's ever-so-useful).  Thanks.  — madman bum and angel 22:40, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

but 'center' is an invalid value for the html valign attribute.
nb: the whole thing should probably be refactored to not use explicit html, but that is another issue. --Jack Merridew 08:29, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Please can someone change the font size to font-size:0.9em; as before. The new font size looks a bit too large, and this font size is better.
