Description

This template is reserved for use by administrators. It should be used to indicate a page has been locked to prevent further edits. Using it automatically adds the page to Category:Locked Articles.

The standard reason to lock a page is to prevent unintended spoilers on later books until the wiki has been filled out with content from earlier books. This is to help build the Time Machine properly.

Usage
