Template:Check page on delete/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Check page on delete (see that page for the template itself). It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This is the {{check page on delete}} template.
This template is normally only used by the system, it is called from MediaWiki:Confirmdeletetext. It displays a warning message when an admin tries to delete a protected page, for instance a protected article.
This template detects all three kinds of protection: edit, move and upload protection. It warns even if it is only semi-protection.
If the page is not protected at all this template produces no output.
This template is sometimes also called in file space. That is, MediaWiki:Confirmdeletetext and thus this template is also called when deleting file pages that have no locally uploaded file.
