This template makes use of {{Autotranslate}} and the translate extension.
Note that the Translate extension is not yet available. Only the text is switched out based on the user's interface, not the whole template (like with {{Autotranslate}}) to avoid unnecessary complexity. Please translate the following and add it to a subpage of Template:Protected/text, e.g. Template:Protected/text/en.
There is no /lang page or /layout page to deal with. Keep in mind this is still a work in progress and new text fields may be added in the future.
Examples
- The message box does not appear on semi-protected pages or upload-only protected files. An icon still appears in the top-right corner.
