MediaWiki:Titleblacklist-forbidden-edit is the message shown to users attempting to edit a page which does not exist and has been protected from creation by
MediaWiki:Titleblacklisting. The equivalent message for pages affected by
salting is
MediaWiki:Titleprotected. This interface message or skin may also be documented on MediaWiki.org or translatewiki.net. The page forms part of the MediaWiki interface, and can only be edited by administrators and interface editors. To request a change to the page, add {{ edit fully-protected}} to this page, followed by a description of your request. Consider announcing discussions you add here at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical) to bring more people to the discussion. |

The current error message is not very infomative. Please consider the following change. Cheers, ➪
HiDrNick! 19:31, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
The page title that you have attempted to create has been included on the local title blacklist, which prevents it from being used due to abuse.
If you have a good reason for creating a page with this title, or if you receive this message when attempting to edit an existing page, please let us know at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard. Be sure to specify the exact title of the page you are trying to create or edit, as well as a brief explanation of what you were trying to do. Thank you.
{{ sudo}} Could we add a mention of the global blacklist as well, over at m:Title blacklist, which also triggers this same error. On another note, it would be very useful if these MW error messages included the MW page for the message itself; these are a pain to find. Cheers, HiDrNick! 21:08, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
How about linking directly, i.e. post a request at the Administrators' noticeboard -- Apoc2400 ( talk) 19:54, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
I am requesting that an administrator change "It matches an entry on the local or global blacklists" to "It matches a regular expression on the local or global title blacklists". I am also requesting that an administrator remove "or edit" because it does not control which edits are made. -- IRP ☎ 01:48, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
{{ Editprotected}} I believe my requested edit should be made for the following reason: I was unable to nominate User talk:! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Threeskin for deletion because the title blacklist was preventing me from doing so. After an administrator created the page for me, I was able to edit it without any error messages, which means that the title blacklist cannot control which edits are made. The other thing, even though most people don't know what a regular expression is, I requested that a link be provided to regular expression so anybody who doesn't know what it is can click on the link. -- IRP ☎ 21:01, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

The first sentence says "The page title or edit you have tried to create has been restricted to administrators at this time. It matches an entry on the local or global blacklists, which is usually used to prevent vandalism." Template editors can also override the title blacklist, in addition to administrators. Can the first sentence be changed to "The page title or edit you have tried to create has been restricted to template editors and administrators at this time. It matches an entry on the local or global blacklists, which is usually used to prevent vandalism.", as well as changing the first two bullet points to:

The page title $2 you have tried to create has been restricted to administrators at this time. It matches the entry $1 on the

Remove <span class="extendedconfirmed-show"> and </span> from the interface message. Reason: Unless there is a specific reason not to, I don't see why only extended-confirmed users should be able to see the blacklist entry. Railtransportfan ( talk) 21:39, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

The reason is some talk pages can be protected by the title blacklist or page protection. This can happen if the talk page is on the title blacklist. Aasim - Herrscher of Wikis ❄️ 13:19, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

Please update the template with the changes in the sandbox. This uses the standardized {{ protected page text}} (specifically {{ protected page text/blacklist}}) and the newly formed Lua module Module:Title blacklist to create the blacklist message (and protect the relevant templates and modules).
