You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason:


{{pre|{{tlx|module rating|''rating''|3=nocat=true}}}}
This page is currently semi-protected so that only established, registered users can edit it.
Why is the page protected?
While most articles can be edited by anyone, semi-protection is sometimes necessary to prevent vandalism to popular pages.
The reason for protection can be found in the protection log. If there are no relevant entries in the protection log, the page may have been moved after being protected.
What can I do?
If you have a user account, log in first. If you do not yet have an account, you may create one; after 4 days and 10 edits, you will be able to edit semi-protected pages.
Discuss this page with others.
For move-protected pages, see requested moves.
Request that the page's protection level be reduced.
Find out more about how to get started editing Wikipedia.
If you have noticed an error or have a suggestion for a simple, non-controversial change, you can submit an edit request by clicking the button below and following the instructions. An established user may then make the change on your behalf. Please check the talk page first in case the issue is already being discussed.

If {{tlx|Module rating}} is used outside the Module namespace, an error message is displayed instead and will be categorized under [[:Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace]].

The rating should be placed in the first positional parameter. There are six different ratings: '''pre-alpha''', '''alpha''', '''beta''', '''release''', and '''protected''', and '''semiprotected'''. There are also short alias codes for each of the ratings.

== Categories ==
 
The template will put modules in one of the following categories, according to the rating specified:
* [[:Category:Modules in pre-alpha development]]
* [[:Category:Modules in alpha]]
* [[:Category:Modules in beta]]
* [[:Category:Modules for general use]]
* [[:Category:Modules subject to page protection]]
 
These categories are suppressed on pages ending with /doc. To suppress categories on all pages, you can use the code {{para|nocat|true}}.
