Script error: No such module "Message box". Template:Subst only

Usage

If a text page is a likely copyright violation (copyvio), add the following before the copied text:

Script error: No such module "Template link general".

And add the following where the copyvio ends:

Template:Tlx

If the entire page has a copyright issue:

Script error: No such module "Template link general". and Template:Tlx at the very end of the article

This template must always be substituted.

  • If the entire page, including all previous versions of it, is a blatant copyright violation, do not use this template and do not blank the page. Tag with Template:Tl instead.
  • If only part of the page is a likely copyright violation, you may tag only that section. The template by default will blank all content following it; to limit the blanking, place Template:Tl at the point where copyright concerns end.
  • Even when blanking the entire article, you should still place Template:Tl at the end of the article to avoid lint errors.
  • This template is not for use with images. Blatant image copyright violations should be tagged with Template:Tl. Otherwise, suspected image violations should be tagged with Template:Tl. If this template is used on a page in the File namespace, it will transclude Template:Copyvio error above the notice.
  • Separate multiple URLs with spaces.
