Template talk:Protected

Purpose?
Does this template serve any purpose on such a big wiki where large number of pages are protected and unprotected daily? 16:36, September 15, 2012 (UTC)


 * It's there so people know the page has been protected, in case they can't see the button saying it has been locked or don't use the Oasis skin. If the page is protected, the template is added. If the page isn't protected, the template is removed. Simple. When people go to the page, they can instantly see the page has been protected. This template doesn't do any harm to the wiki. --Speysider Talk Page 16:39, September 15, 2012 (UTC)
