See Wikipedia:Template editor § Guidelines for granting for the granting guidelines.

• Applicants should show some evidence that they generally meet the guidelines outlined there, and have a demonstrated need for the right.
• Please note that most templates are not protected and can be edited without this access.
• If a template you frequently edit had its protection level recently changed, ask the protecting admin if lowering the protection level is an option.

Recently I've been finding myself making quite a few edit requests to template-protected pages – I believe I have the technical knowledge to complete these changes myself (with consensus or uncontroversial changes, obviously) so therefore I'd like to request template editor permissions DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 10:46, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

:Thanks for applying. Most of your edits to the template namespace are DYK-related, which are not really templates (despite being in the wrong namespace). But hopefully there are enough edits to real templates to assess this request — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:14, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

::Thanks so much for taking the time to review my request! Incidentally, I have previously started discussions on changing the DYK namespaces to not be templates (although for a lack of enthusiasm, that never went ahead!) – I should note also that I do have 3 pending template-protected edit requests DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 17:36, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
