I request that the following lines be removed from the start of the interface page:
<div class="editsection noprint editlink plainlinksneverexpand" align="right" style="float: right; margin-left: 5px;"><small>[{{fullurl:MediaWiki talk:Expand templates intro|action=edit{{#if:|§ion={{{section}}}}}}} edit{{#if:| {{{2}}}}}]</small></div>
Having an "edit" link is abnormal, especially since it also shows up at the special page (Special:ExpandTemplates) and thus I think it should be removed. Thanks,
