Revision as of 07:25, 5 January 2008
Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here. | ||
---|---|---|
Before requesting, read the protection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism to high-risk templates; semi-protection and pending changes are usually used to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars. Extended confirmed protection is used where semi-protection has proved insufficient (see the rough guide to extended confirmed protection) After a page has been protected, it is listed in the page history and logs with a short rationale, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins should not revert to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism.
Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level
Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
Request a specific edit to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here |

Current requests for protection
Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload protection at the BOTTOM of this section.

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Already declined below as well. Jmlk17 07:15, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- I thought the decline below was a technicality because it was for the new page I re-directed to. Can you take another look at the corrected, original page? Sean-O (talk) 07:19, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I already have, and I agree entirely with Kusma and Jmlk. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 07:20, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- At a rate of about 4 edits/month, there is no evidence of "heavy and persistent IP vandalism". The talk page should only be protected in really extreme circumstances, and there is no evidence at all that something extremely unusual is going on here. Kusma (talk) 07:22, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection.. I will also undo the cut and paste copyright violation you just performed on that page. Kusma (talk) 07:03, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

£ (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) and £ (currency) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
The Pound (currency) article is the correct destination for this shortcut. The Pound sign article is about the character on the keyboard, not the item itself. (RM21 (talk) 03:23, 5 January 2008 (UTC))
- Further, the Pound sign article is written from a strictly international and computing perspective, without any relevance to numismatics. Not all computer systems translate '#' as '£' (RM21 (talk) 03:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC))
Declined. Preemptive strikes are explicitly disallowed in the protection policy with regard to mainspace. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 03:36, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- If that's the case, please re-open the debate, and let others contribute. (RM21 (talk) 03:47, 5 January 2008 (UTC))
- Could you please clarify what you meant on that last statement? Also, merging two identical requests. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 04:02, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- I meant the the debate should continue, after more contributions have been received, before a final decision is reached. (RM21 (talk) 04:12, 5 January 2008 (UTC))
- There is no debate here. If there is not enough activity to protect, there is not enough activity to protect. Any administrator can tall you that. Come back when there is an actual reason to protect, please. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 05:57, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Protect (either full or semi) due to persistent IP address vandalism. Wweisreal (talk) 03:16, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. jj137 ♠ 03:50, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- That is crazy! There are many IPs that have VANDALIZED this page. If you've seen it in the last 2 minutes you'd know. LOOK and FIND out!!!!Wweisreal (talk) 03:55, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- But it was only in one bout. And please be civil. JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 04:01, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'll clean it up myself then. But, if this happens again, don't say I didn't tell you so!!! Wweisreal (talk) 04:06, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- WWE, lose the incivility. The protection policy does not permit us to protect an article just off of two minutes' worth of vandalism. We can only protect in response to extreme (i.e. 50 vandal edits/minute; BLP concerns) or prolonged vandalism. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 04:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- Protection is not pre-emptive, Wweisreal. Please only request protection if the article gets vandalized several more times in a short period of time. Take George W. Bush for an example of what should be protected. JetLover (talk) (Report a mistake) 04:10, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- I'm more familiar with the /b/tard magnet Mudkip. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 04:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Full or Semi-Protection. Constant Edit-Warring over network's termination date due to channel's prolonged dispute with Dish Network. DJBullfish (talk) 18:10, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Current requests for unprotection
Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.
- To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
- Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
- Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
- If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Unprotection , It seems like the edit war concerning this has died down, no activity on that portion of the talk page in almost a month. I have nothing to do with the argument that led to protection, I wanted to add some media to the article. Mr Senseless (talk) 21:33, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Unprotected - seems reasonable, and it's been over a month now - Alison ❤ 21:45, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Why can't I edit my own userpage for profiling? Why is it protected in the first place. Can someone help me unprotect it please? Thanks alot. DanielTAR (talk) 02:46, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Declined - From the MfD opening argument: Page is a misuse of user space as articles that wouldn't be allowed in mainspace are not allowed in user space. It was salted because you recreated it. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 03:40, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Current requests for significant edits to a protected page
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
- Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among
{{Edit protected}}
,{{Edit template-protected}}
,{{Edit extended-protected}}
, or{{Edit semi-protected}}
to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}
template should be used. - Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
- If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
- This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.
Fulfilled/denied requests
temporary full protection Vandalism, Vandalism by various users..Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 00:48, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-protected rather than fully-protected: full isn't necessary. Acalamari 00:59, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
semi-protection Semi-protection: Vandalism, redirect and otrs complaint M-ercury at 00:35, January 5, 2008 00:35, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Full protection. Vandalism is horrific after just a day of the semi-protection being lifted. (The Elfoid (talk) 23:43, 4 January 2008 (UTC))
Declined A single user vandalizing in the past 24 hours doesn't justify any protection for this article, especially full protection. Húsönd 00:59, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
List of best-selling music artists (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Full or semi-protection This page is at high-level Vadalism. It was semi-protected for a period of one week but vandalism mostly by IPs restarted as the page-protection expired. Since December 30th, 2007 (that's when protection expired) the page must have been vandalised at least 15 times.--Harout72 (talk) 21:59, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Declined Not enough vandal activity/useless attempts for self-promotion to justify protection at this time. Húsönd 01:05, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
semi-protection Vandalism, IPs adding false information and personal attack information Rcpete39 (talk) 23:16, 4 January 2008 (UTC)RCPete39

Declined already deleted -- zzuuzz (talk) 22:08, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Asia Pacific Football League (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
semi-protection I was the only user that had any info on this league, but I feel the page should be unprotected for me to locate futher infomation and hopefully for someone else to add to it. Also, I need to find the archived info on that page so I can look up links and further info that I had only on that page. What I had there is not able to be located anywhere else, nor is the info archived on the page. For some reason the system will not let me look up any info that was previously on the page. Rick lay95 (talk) 17:58, 4 January 2008 (UTC)rick_lay95
Not unprotected, - ah, okay. I can see what's going on here. The article here has been SALTed as it had been repeatedly re-created after it had been agreed by the community that it be deleted. Your next step might be to take a request to Wikipedia:Deletion review or request a copy of the deleted article at Wikipedia:Deletion review/Content review - Alison ❤ 22:06, 4 January 2008 (UTC) Alison ❤ 22:06, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
I checked the deleation review and I find nothing. It won't let me go back and gather the info I need. And I still can't figure out why it was deleted. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rick lay95 (talk • contribs) 04:17, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
- You have to actually make a request at deletion review, not just go there and hope someone has already asked for such info. -Jéské (Blah v^_^v) 06:00, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Full protect ongoing vandalism by several disrupters. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 19:19, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Semi-Protection several IPs persist in changing "Prime Minister of Canada" to "Crime Minister of Canada'. Reggie Perrin (talk) 19:14, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Maybe 1 week will quench this spate? DMacks (talk) 19:50, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-Protection. This page is being constantly vandalized, many times a day, by anonymous users. -- Atamachat 18:30, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. If the problem recurs, a very much longer protection seems like a good idea here. DMacks (talk) 19:48, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Template:Date of death (edit | [[Talk:Template:Date of death|talk]] | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

temporary full protection Dispute, An edit war between some select editors who keep reverting each other, been going on for some time, does not seem to be getting anywhere.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007 film) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Semi-protection, plot section keeps getting deleted by spoiled anons.--Yamanbaiia(free hugs!) 16:53, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The film was released very recently, so all these spoiler warning additions by frustrated readers are understandable. PeaceNT (talk) 17:34, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-protection, preferably longer-term. Page was getting regular vandalism again from anons. Every time it gets unprotected it gets vandalized again. Tried resolution process several times, they never agree with the results and continue to vandalized more and more. -Kirkoconnell (talk) 16:18, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 2 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. DMacks (talk) 17:17, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
