The #invoke syntax can be used for creating protection templates more specific than {{tl|pp}}. For example, it is possible to create a protection template which always shows a padlock icon by using the code <code><nowiki>{{#invoke:Protection banner|main|small=yes}}</nowiki></code>. Pages which call this template will still be able to use other arguments, like ''action'' and ''expiry''. However, this only works one level deep; a page calling a template which calls another template containing the above code will not automatically be able to use parameters like ''action'' and ''expiry''.

'''''Note:''' You needshould tono longer specify the expiry only for pending changes, i.e. action = 'autoreview', as it is automatically retrieved in otherall cases.''
