"WP:RFP" and "WP:RPP" redirect here. You may also be looking for Wikipedia:Requests for permissions, Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission, or Wikipedia:Random page patrol.
    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
    this header: view • edit



    Current requests for increase in protection level

    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.

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – forms of vandalism such as changing dates, messing up infoboxes and high level of edit/attention since the subject of the article has recently passed away.

    Indefinite extended confirmed protection: High level of IP vandalism and / or having to explain to new users how Wikipedia works regarding cited material overriding opinions, lore, etc..

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Almost every edit to this page has been vandalism by IPs and new editors. The only non-vandalism edits are the people reverting it. 🐍Helen🐍 02:29, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    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.

    Grooming gang moral panic in the United Kingdom

    Reason: Protecting talk about this page hides the breadth and depth of concern that the page is doing harm to Wikipedia's reputation. It plays into the narrative that Wikipedia is being captured by activists with minority (not to say extreme) views and objevtives. Neverbeen~enwiki (talk) 08:54, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Neverbeen~enwiki: Such as the massive amount of drive-by editors drawn to the page by the GB News piece who make one abusive comment and then never edit again? Talk pages are not protected except as a last resort to kerb disruption that would make them all but unusable. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 15:32, 13 October 2024 (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.

    Israel–Hamas war

    I want to add a little information inside the template since houthi is already added on the Belligerents side i think we should add the casualties of the yemani also in the template same as egyptians or syrians especially those who died as resulted from isreali airstrike and according to those articles 20 July 2024 Israeli attack on Yemen and 29 September 2024 Israeli attacks on Yemen, the yemani casualties are 20 killed, and +147 injured 70.26.36.11 (talk) 03:48, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Not done. The request is vague, nonspecific, and cites zero sources. ~Anachronist (talk) 07:31, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Anachronist have u even read my request? How it's vague and nonspecific. I want to add the yemani casualties resulted from isreali airstrike as it's part of the conflict and if you literally opened the 2 articles you will found all the sources you need.--70.26.36.11 (talk) 07:40, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Those monitoring this request page are not involved with that article, and are not going to enter into debates or discussion. Requests made on this page must be complete and actionable. Your request is neither. You have not stated how you want anything changed. You have not made any specific request in the form "change X to Y" with proper wiki-markup and sources cited. Basically make your request as if you are editing the article yourself. ~Anachronist (talk) 07:48, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Anachronist, i want to add information not change

    I want to add the yemani casualties to the first template under or with the casualties of lebanon and syria because they were killed by Israel as resulted from this conflict. The sources are here source 14 killed in july attack, source of six killed in September attack. If u can't add this information could you at least put it in the talk page.--70.26.36.11 (talk) 14:29, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Earlier you said 20 killed in Yemen? Are you getting this by adding 14+6? That's called WP:SYNTHESIS, which isn't allowed, because no source actually says 20 were killed. Both sources are dated the same day, July 21. And they contradict each other. The first one said the death toll "rises" to 14, meaning that is the total. We can't work with contradictory sources, but I have mentioned this discussion on the article's talk page. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:15, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    sorry i fixed the source so now it's not contradicting.

    if you look at 2024 Israeli invasion of Lebanon article that's exactly what happened in the Lebanese army casualties it's stated 4 in 2 sources for each incident. --70.26.36.11 (talk) 21:09, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    1948 Palestinian expulsion and flight

    In the second paragraph it states that "The desire to prevent the collapse of the Palestinians and to avoid more refugees were some of the reasons for the entry of the Arab League into the country, which began the 1948 Arab–Israeli War." It is absurd to characterize the invasion by the Arab league into Israel, which triggered the War of Independence as an "entry". The words "entry of" should be changed to "invasion by" which is supported by the source text and just about every other paper on the Israeli War of Independance. Apndrew (talk) 01:34, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Not done. The two sources cited for that sentence don't mention an "invasion". At most, one of the sources simply mentions "sending [in] the Arab armies" in response to a massacre. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:22, 13 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Gaza genocide

    My suggestion is to leave out the following 2 sentences in the "German complicity" paragraph as they seem to be based on misunderstandings:

    "She also highlighted police suppression of pro-Palestine protests throughout Germany[509] as evidence of state complicity.[508] Karen Wells et al. highlight how Germany has entrenched its complicity in Israel's actions by banning use of the word "genocide" in reference to Israel.[471][better source needed]"

    1. In general violent protests are not allowed in Germany. As some of the first pro-Palestine protests were violent, they were sometimes forbidden by courts, if they were expected to turn violent. But that is common policy in Gemany with all subjects and not special for pro-Palestine protests.

    Meanwhile, there even is a calendar concerning pro-Palestinian protests[1] with daily up to 20 protests all over Germany. Thus, there is no general police suppression of pro-Palestine protests as is suggested by the current wording.

    2. The word “genocide” is not banned in reference to Israel in Germany - maybe that was a misunderstanding: What is not allowed in Germany is to call for genocide against Jews. The slogan “From the river to the sea” is seen as such call and banned. Gilbert04 (talk) 15:34, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
