Creation request
Please create the associated system message with:

for use by Special:AbuseFilter/1291 which I just created. See Edit filter/Requested for background. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 22:34, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

 * @MSGJ it seems that my use of `pre` tags in the request above hid the fact that the `Example Article Name` link should be wrapped in `nowiki` tags as well, so that the entire link syntax is shown rather than creating a link. In can you please add `nowiki` tags within the `code` tags but outside of the link itself? I have no idea how to get that to actually show up here in the parsed result of my request, but if you inspect the source of my earlier request you'll see what I mean. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 18:22, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
 * How's that now? &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:19, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @MSGJ great, thanks --DannyS712 (talk) 01:40, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

Possible change to edit filter text
, what do you think about a possible change like this to the edit filter text?

My reason for suggesting this is because the preloaded form requires editors to change the Example Article Name text in the template as well as in the header; and - from looking at recent  (e.g. Special:AbuseLog/37269965) - it seems that it may not currently be clear that the article name needs to be inserted in both locations.

Apologies if I've worded this proposed change badly :) All the best. &zwj;—&zwj; a smart kitten [  meow ] 14:02, 19 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @A smart kitten good catch - I didn't realize that the page name goes in two places (I don't think I've ever made a protection request without using Twinkle or some other tool...). Looks good to me --DannyS712 (talk) 18:30, 19 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Per above. All the best. &zwj;—&zwj; a smart kitten [  meow ] 18:33, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
