This is a [[WP:Cascade-protection|cascade-protection]] notice, mostly intended for near the top of the documentation pages of template that are subject to cascaded protection because of their transclusion in some other page, {{em|and}} which are expected to have that protection indefinitely.

While a similar template is automatically generated by the system from [[MediaWiki:Cascadeprotected]] as an [[WP:Editnotice|editnotice]] when someone tries to edit ("view source") on such a template, they have to actually try that before they get any inkling that the template is protected because of cascading.  By putting a notice also on the template's /doc page, this should forestall attempts to have the template's protection level reduced to [[WP:Template-editor|template-editor]] level (such requests must always be declined in cases of cascade-protection).

== Usage ==

Just add {{tlx|Cascade-protected template}} near the top of the template's /doc subpage (usually right below the {{tlx|documentation subpage}} header).

In the odd case that the cascade-protected page is not a template, {{para|page}} can be used to change the word, e.g. {{para|page|interface page}}.

{{Strong|This template is not for temporary protection.}}  Many pages get short-term cascade-protected because of transclusion from an article listed on the [[WP:Main page|Main Page]] for a few days.  We do not need to tag then untag 100+ templates with this notice during that period.  Volunteer editorial time is Wikipedia's most precious resource, and [[WP:NOT#BUREAUCRACY|WP is not BureaucracyPedia]].
