Message: The maintenance depends on whether the text is to be substituted ot not.

If the content is to be substituted then look to the last username who did the change if the last change comes not from me look for the last edit time and wait for the remaining up to the given -delay time then reset the page

If the content is not to be substituted then look if the content has been changes. If so and the default sandbox-message is not on top of the page then reset the page immediately else look for the last edit time and wait for the remaining up to the given -delay time then reset the page

Message: I'm not sure that's true. It waits a minimum of 5 minutes after the most recent edit (I suppose to make sure they are done editing before erasing their work.)

Message: I won't. I you need it for test purposes, just clean the sandbox page or insert sth above the template or change the template itself. This will lead the bot to reset the page just now. But it is not a good idea to break testings by decrease the wait cycle to zero.

Message: There is a difference between five minutes and zero minutes. -delay:0 needs to be possible.

Message: remark: If you remove the template or make any changes above it, there is no delay time. In such cases, the default will be restored immediately.
