Wikipedia:Requests for adminship and all its subpages. Template:Editnotices/Group/Wikipedia:Requests for adminship can only be edited by administrators, page movers, and template editors. All editnotices (except those in userspace) are protected via MediaWiki:Titleblacklist, so the "protection" status as set by the protection tab is mostly irrelevant. |
{{

Add a background color to make it stand out.
Replace the following:
{{editnotice|id=whatever the id is|editnotice content}}
with
<div id="whatever the id is" style="border:2px solid black; background-color: #e8e8e8; background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, #e8e8e8, #ffffff);">editnotice content</div>

{{ editprotected}} Could you replace the jargon "RFA" with "Requests for adminship", so as not to be needlessly confusing for newer editors. Thanks, Skomorokh 21:25, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

This contains code for the changes I propose. Not every creation of a RfA is a self-nomination, so I've added some stuff that tells the page creator that it's polite to consult the nominee before creating the subpage. -- Σ talk contribs 02:27, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure that your request is ready and I'm not even sure what you are proposing to change. Please discuss any substantial changes on Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship and reactivate the request only when there is consensus for change.

Can someone please change "To ask the candidate a question, please use {{subst:Rfa-question|number of question|question}}, which will format your question and add your username" to "To ask the candidate a question, please use {{subst:Rfa-question|number of question|2=question}}, which will format your question and add your username." Notice the change is in adding 2= in the question parameter. Ryan Vesey 14:50, 5 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi. The use of File:AnimatedStop.gif is really a bit much. Please remove this. (I wouldn't object to the notice also being toned down generally, but my primary focus is this blinking monster.) -- MZMcBride ( talk) 01:05, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

{{REVISIONUSER}}
does not return the user looking at the page when the variable is used in edit notices. Thus, the bit that
Technical 13 added about self-noms is useless, could somebody remove that please.

Perhaps since use of automated tools has gone up (either that or RfA criteria for many voters) then you should perhaps change it to the following: at least several thousand edits. Dat Guy Talk Contribs 14:56, 17 October 2016 (UTC)

For the last bullet point, replace the construct "and/or" with simply "or", per MOS:ANDOR. Thanks! – void xor 02:04, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

{{
subst:Rfa-question|number of question|2=question}} -> {{
subst:Rfa-question|question number|your question}} Just easier to comprehend this way. Also, I've cleaned up {{
subst:Rfan}}
, so maybe add that for clerking, it's already used for moving dicussions.

{{

which I also proposed adding since it's used to clerk. It's not controversial, so I wouldn't say there's consensus to be gathered, but more of an assessment for its need. Reopened it again. --

I moved this question out of
QEDK's edit request to a new section to since it was getting lost in the discussion of {{
Rfa-question}}, and an edit template-protected request can be opened here if consensus is achieved.
QEDK has cleaned up {{
subst:Rfan}}
and was proposing adding a mention of it to
Template:Editnotices/Group/Wikipedia:Requests for adminship. Should clerking instructions be added to the edit notice shown to all editors on RfA pages? --
