ढाँचा:High-risk/doc

This is a documentation subpage for ढाँचा:High-risk (see that page for the ढाँचा itself).
It contains usage information, categories, and other content that are not part of the original ढाँचा page.

This is the {{high-risk}} message box.

It is meant to be put at the top of the documentation for the most high-use (high-risk) templates. That is for templates used on 1,000 pages or more.

For templates used on 2000 - 1,000 pages we instead recommend using {{high-use}} which has a softer wording.

Usage

The template can be used as is. But it can also take some parameters:

First parameter is the number of pages. See tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/embeddedincount.py to find out how many pages use a given template.
Second parameter is the name of some other talk page if you want discussion to be made there instead. But a better option might be to redirect the talkpage of your template to that other talkpage.

Here are some examples:

{{high-risk| 20,000+ | Wikibooks:Reading room/Technical Assistance }}

This template is used on 20,000+ pages.
To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes should first be tested in the template sandbox or a user subpage. The tested changes can then be added in one single edit to this template. Please consider discussing any changes on Wikibooks:Reading room/Technical Assistance before implementing them.
