Description Tran Vinh Tan 2008-10-06 13:40:54 UTC
In new protection interface, when I tried to protect page moves but not page editing, I ignored Edit box and moved to Move box to tick, choose a expiry time and a reason then push Confirm then I saw an error "Invalid expiry time". I was surprised because I have never seen it in older interface. Eventually, I found out that I must choose a expiry time in edit protection (for my needs, I must choose indefinite with (default) protection.

Could you think about smarter and less confused interface?

Works fine, at least as of 1.14a.
