Template:Admin help/doc

This is the adminhelp message box.

If you need help from an administrator, you can place this template on your own user talk page, and write your question below it. Then our administrators will be notified.

Here is what you would put at the bottom of your talk page:

Question for administrator
--~

The four tildes " ~ " will automatically add your signature, that is, your username and a timestamp.

Note: A lot of things can be handled by experienced users. The best way to contact an experienced user is to use helpme instead, or post at the Help desk or Village Pump.

If you require help in regards to blocking, deleting, protecting, or administrative matters, you can use adminhelp; but if you are currently blocked and wish to request unblocking, it is recommended you use unblock instead of the helper templates. This ensures your request is included in the requests for unblock category.
