This warring has gone on despite concurrent discussion, so with full protection, I hope discussion can be moved to the talk page of the relevant WikiProject (WikiProject China).

    Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.
    Shortcuts

    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. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

    Talk:Joseon Dynasty (edit | article | history | links | watch | logs)

    Temporary full protection. Edit-war over a WikiProject banner template involving multiple users (none of whom have crossed 3rr). After the initial edit, there have been nine reverts by five users within three days ([1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]). This warring has gone on despite concurrent discussion, so with full protection, I hope discussion can be moved to the talk page of the relevant WikiProject (WikiProject China).

    Indefinite Semi-protect. This page has had a steady level of IP vandalism since Philosophy was semi-protected. I believe that this is because new IP users start from Wikipedia:Get to Philosophy (very popular because of a link from XKCD), try to vandalize the semi-protected Philosophy, then vandalize the first article linked from Philosophy, which is Metaphysics. (This is not the start of an infinite chain of protection requests because Metaphysics leads back to Philosophy.) See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Get_to_Philosophy#Gaming_The_System for an overview of what I am trying to accomplish with this request. Guy Macon (talk) 21:39, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for unprotection

    Shortcuts

    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.

    Since 2007 (when the article was protected) Frank has now played first team matched for Ferencváros and since moved to Waasland-Beveren and are viable for an article. Documentation: [1].Keallu (talk) 10:21, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    Unprotected Dabomb87 (talk) 18:37, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Shortcut

    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.

    I request that the TFD tag be added to the page. per the instructions Wikipedia:Templates for discussion
