    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.

    Temporary semi-protection: Repeated pattern of tendentious edits (against consensus) by anons and newly created accounts in apparent puppetry. (Likely by previously blocked user). Guliolopez (talk) 12:30, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Unsourced addition of players in the first team by anonymous editors. It has been semi protected twice in the last month for the same reason, but disruption continues. – Kosm1fent 11:52, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: More transfer rumors, from multiple IPs, almost immediately as the Protection lapsed. Achowat (talk) 11:37, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – As per most recent consensus the section in question ("Countries described as having an emerging blue-water navy") does not belong on the article. Please refer to archive for consensus. TalkWoe90i 10:58, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism on a highly visible BLP. Amartyabag TALK2ME 07:18, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – A recent explosion of vandalism. DPH1110 (talk) 05:34, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Need protection. Two users using IP addresses (86.157.246.15) and (86.181.77.36) keep replacing Maggie Gyllenhaal's pictures with Katie Holmes' on the article's header. The article has been vandalized twice this week.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 05:14, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protect. Same as last time. IP's constantly changing who the player plays for. Spc 21 (talk) 23:02, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protect. The disambiguation page is being repeatedly redirected to Kamrupi dialect. Kamrup is a region and Kamrupi is anything associated with that region. Request restoration of the page to the disambiguation state, and semi-protected. Chaipau (talk) 22:43, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: Semi-protection won't solve anything. There are two autoconfirmed editors edit-warring on the page (Bhaskarbhagawati (talk · contribs) and Chaipau (talk · contribs)). Warned bother editors [1][2]. Armbrust, B.Ed. WrestleMania XXVIII The Undertaker 20–0 22:52, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    Kamrupi_(disambiguation) exists and same was informed here and Kamrupi page was redirected to intended article. User Chaipau is performing duplication and same can be avoided by fully protecting Kamrupi page. Thanks ! bbhagawati (talk) 02:50, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protect. Image-related vandalism, as an anonymous user editing from multiple IP accounts keeps adding images that were not taken at the airport.--Jetstreamer Talk 20:18, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    A variable IP (46.122.49.114 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) yesterday, 46.122.94.84 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) today) is edit warring over the classification of the Uralic languages. E.g. [3] No response on talk page. Some edit summaries that indicate he believes the opposite of what we have sourced in our articles. Has restored edits many times after being reverted by User:JorisvS and myself. Requesting semi-protection for all articles in Category:Uralic languages and its subcats that have the word 'language(s)' in their title [articles in subcat Category:Samoyedic languages can be ignored], as well as the articles Seto dialect, Meänkieli, and Sami people. Either that or a range block, but non-linguistic edits do not seem to be a problem. — kwami (talk) 19:45, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    (Since there's been no response here, I've done another round of reverts. Let's see if he continues. — kwami (talk) 07:45, 27 July 2012 (UTC))[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Jjmihai don't respect Wikipedia policy, including Wikipedia:MOSDASH. Please block him and protect Steaua page. Mortifervm (talk) 12:16, 27 July 2012 (UTC +3).

    Temporary full protection: Persistent vandalism – Liviu Marius Dobrea don't respect Wikipedia policy, including Wikipedia:MOSDASH. Please block him and protect Steaua page. Jjmihai (talk) 07:39, 27 July 2012 (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.

    Unprotection Would like original farewell message left on there, and not an accusation. Mcfly85 (talk) 23:06, 26 July 2012 (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.

    Fulfilled/denied requests

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Tinton5 (talk) 01:07, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined Not a particularly unusual level of vandalism (the POV tag dispute isn't vandalism, and wouldn't be touched by semi in any case, the participants are all auto-confirmed.) --j⚛e deckertalk 03:16, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary full protection: This article had an AFD (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Grey's Anatomy (season 9)) where consensus was to delete/redirect until late August/September, and it continues to be recreated, despite numerous attempts to explain why it shouldn't be created. Can this please be fully protected until September? Thanks, TRLIJC19 (talk) 01:05, 27 July 2012 (UTC). TRLIJC19 (talk) 01:05, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Fully protected for a period of 62 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. --j⚛e deckertalk 03:07, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Indefinite full protection: Once again we have people vandalising the page with an addition of Thomas Edison. It's the same cat/mouse that we get. Obviously this low fruit is too tantalizing for confirmed users to pick at, now having trapped 3 "editors in good standing" in the Indefinite Block hole, it's time to shut the case 100% permanantly with edits to the page coming from edit-protected requests on the talk page. Hasteur (talk) 01:04, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Fully protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Eventually this will pass, but ... not nearly soon enough. --j⚛e deckertalk 02:59, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Long-term semi due to frequent assaults on the article. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 23:10, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined. Only disruptive editing in the month of July came from a now-blocked account.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:44, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    Good enough, for now. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 03:28, 27 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
