Edit request 5 December 2024

This edit request to Template:Di-orphaned non-free use-notice has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Description of suggested change:

The wording of Template:Di-orphaned non-free use-notice probably needs to be changed to reflect the change in name of its parent template Template:Di-orphaned non-free use. The wording "may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use" isn't really correct because Wikipedia's non-free content use policy and the concept of fair use aren't exactly the same as explained in WP:NFC#Background; Wikipedia's policy is actually more restrictive than fair use. So, it seems more appropriate for the template's text to read as follows: "may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use", "may only be used on Wikipedia in accordance with Wikipedia's non-free content use policy" or something similar.

Template-protected edit request on 18 February 2025

It is requested that an edit be made to the template-protected template at Template:Db-deleted-multiple.
(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, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately.

Edit requests to template-protected pages should only be used for edits that are either uncontroversial or supported by consensus. If the proposed edit might be controversial, discuss it on the protected page's talk page before using this template. 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. When the request has been completed or denied, please add the |answered=yes parameter to deactivate the template.

WP:T5 support should be added to this template per the instructions at Wikipedia:Speedy deletion/Creating a new criterion since {{db-t5-deleted}} exists. I've provided the code for this in TM:db-deleted-multiple/sandbox and have made the same change to the unprotected TM:db-notice-multiple. Nickps (talk) 23:38, 18 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
