Vorlage:Description

English: The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog

Note: This vorlage is used on a lot of pages. In order not to put too much load on the servers, edits should be kept to a bare minimum. Please discuss proposed changes on the talk page first.

Editing a vorlage causes all pages that use the vorlage to be re-rendered. If the vorlage is used often, this can put a lot of load on the servers since it fills up the job queue.
Keep in mind that templates that are used on file description pages also show up on other wikis.
