MediaWiki:Protect-text



By default, protection lasts indefinitely. To specify an expiry, enter a length of time (e.g. "31 hours", "5 days" or "1 week") or an expiration date (e.g. "1  ") in GNU standard format. Expiry times for move-protection and edit-protection can be set for different lengths of time. This allows pages to be protected from editing for a definite period of time while move-protection can remain indefinitely.
