Hello there, I just uploaded my first weapon contribution, but after saving it for the first time, I lost the ability to edit it. After saving it, I realized I made a few errors, so I wanted to change them, but I received a message stating that I couldn't and that all I could do was copy and paste some random weapon template. I'm not sure what the problem is, but this is the message I received, when I tried to edit it:

"You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason:"
"This page has been protected to prevent editing or other actions."

Again, all I did was save it once and then I tried to edit it. I never sent a request stating that I didn't want the page to be edited anymore. I don't even know how to do that.<-- Lead post text here -->

Hi ProtomanX98 - I'm guessing what happened is you clicked the 'edit' button on the actual page. Mediawiki is slightly buggedand causes you to be directed to the actual template. You seem to have made a new edit since, but if you click 'edit' at the top, you should be okay.
