Notice of RFC on preemptive protection of Today's featured article
The discussion. Ramaksoud2000 (Talk to me) 00:59, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
RfC to add Pending Changes to all BLP with few or no watchers
The number of watchers of a BLP seems unrelated to the number of revisions it receives:
Perhaps 5% of BLPs are unwatched. The median number of watchers is somewhere between 2 and 4 (based on one limited toolserver query and one small sample). The question is: does this mean would ought to allow Pending Changes protection of these BLP purely because they're un- or under- watched? Josh Parris 05:31, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
Which is wrong?
This page says:
Positioning the mouse pointer over the padlock symbol produces an informational tooltip displaying why, and for what duration, the page is protected.
However, when I hover the mouse over the lock at Burzynski Clinic it says the article is semi-protected, but doesn't say why or for how long. Does the policy wording need editing, or is there something wrong?--S Philbrick(Talk) 21:20, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
- The lock icon is placed by {{pp-semi-protected}} independent of actual protection, so verification is necessary to see if the lock is correctly placed.
- To verify and see the actual protection settings, look at the logs:
- The latter title shows that it was temporarily protected three times, before being given indefinite protection. I believe the protection moves with the title when it's moved.
- Then you can update {{Pp-protected}} to give reason and expiry parameters. see that template's documentation. The template uses the WP:magic word {{PROTECTIONLEVEL}} to determine the protection level (semi- or full-) but doesn't know why or for how long unless it's fed parameters with that info. Regards, Wbm1058 (talk) 14:39, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
- Just a note to say that the expiry parameter is only intended for stating specific dates. If the protection is indefinite, that parameter isn't used. In the particular example given above, the protection is currently of indefinite duration. – Wbm1058 (talk) 20:00, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
