![]() | <translate> This module is [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Category:Modules subject to page protection</tvar>|subject to {{<tvar name=2>#if:</tvar>|cascading|page}} protection]].</translate> <translate> It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages.</translate> <translate> Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is [[<tvar name=1>Special:MyLanguage/Project:Protected page</tvar>|protected]] from editing.</translate> |
This module transcludes templates whose names have been given as parameters in order to trigger cascade protection.
Usage

-- Check if the transcluding page is cascade-protected.
--
-- Only pages transcluded from a cascade-protected page appear in
-- CASCADINGSOURCES, so normally we would not be able to tell if the lockbox
-- itself is cascade-protected. To work around this, we generate a
-- transclusion from the lockbox to itself, so that it will have an entry
-- for itself in CASCADINGSOURCES.
--
-- We cannot generate this transclusion using the title object for the
-- parent title (the lockbox), as if the lockbox is transcluded on another
-- page, we will generate a transclusion *from* the lockbox *to* that page
-- as well, and the page will be cascade-protected. Instead we generate it
-- with the title object for the current title.
--
-- When the current title is the parent title (i.e. we are rendering the
-- lockbox page), this creates the required entry in the link table in the
-- database. When the current title is the grandparent title or up (i.e. we
-- are rendering a page transcluding the lockbox), transclusions are only
-- created from the page itself, not from the lockbox, and it is not
-- cascade-protected.
--
-- This creates an extaneous self-transclusion for all pages using the
-- module, but we treat that as a necessary evil.
--
-- XXX: there seems to be no way to check for cascading protection using a
-- Scribunto API, so we have to use frame:preprocess with the
-- CASCADINGSOURCES parser function.
