I have been stepping up my template editing in recent months, and believe that I meet the requirements. I likely haven't made 5 significant edits to template-protected modules, but I think it's more than 0. I'll leave that up to the reviewer, though. I have contributed a number of simple templates that have become relatively standard-use in a short period of time, including {{Game-won}} and related templates, as well as {{Hockey season stats entry}} and related templates.

 Done, till the end of Jan, I see a lot of "normal" template editing occuring and that gives me some hope, I'm gonna give the right till the end of Jan and once that time is up, if you still need it for a longer period, we can discuss the edits made. Sohom (talk) 00:32, 23 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
