Revision as of 16:11, 5 March 2016


    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 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 sockpuppetry – Recent Fangusu WP:SOCK target. Also, this talk page has been temporarily semi-protected in the past for the same reason. Steel1943 (talk) 19:40, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined, for the time being, the sock is not so active, and there are obvious benefits in having the talk page unprotected. If it really gets worse, pls reapply.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:09, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Renew pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – Renew pending changes. Agreed to George Ho about the fact about many reverts. Recent reversions of changes that were pending. I think this article needs to be reviewed more often to avoid disruptive editing or vandalism. Qwertyxp2000 (talk | contribs) 23:17, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Pending-changes protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:00, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: IPs keep adding wrong sales and deleting hidden note about why those sales numbers are wrong. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 04:25, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Same as before, IPs keep adding wrong sales and deleting hidden note about why those sales numbers are wrong. Cornerstonepicker (talk) 04:32, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – We're getting a bunch of drive-by IP editors claiming the band broke up without offering anything in the way of sources to do so (and yes, I've asked, check the edit history). We've had one registered user do it too, but it's mostly bare IPs. Zeke, the Mad Horrorist (Speak quickly) (Follow my trail) 04:38, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent IP vandalism / Persistent IP sockpuppetry. FA9295 (talk) (contributions) 05:32, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I know it's a bit anti-climatic to request this for protection (and ironic...), but the only IP edits in awhile have been nonsense/vandalism. (This is more of a proposal than a request...). FA9295 (talk) (contributions) 05:42, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP editor keeps putting a statement that the show has not been renewed for a third season in the article that is not supported by the source given. The show is still airing its second season, and Disney has not yet announced whether or not the show is getting a renewal. ElectricBurst(Electron firings)(Zaps) 05:47, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. ElectricBurst(Electron firings)(Zaps) 05:56, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Salmaan Taseer's killer has just been hanged. So this page is going to be vandalized for quite a few days. --Peaceworld 09:09, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism by Philippine-based IP user who insists on adding Power Rangers broadcast info. Areaseven (talk) 11:05, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Bayan Muna and Neri Colmenares

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism, IPs insists the political organization's links to the Communist Part of the Philippines without support from a reliable source. Same for the Bayan Muna politician. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 11:26, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism - Persistent vandalism by several IP users with wrong info and false edits. True Nation 12:18, 5 March 2016 (UTC)

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    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.

    Reduction of semi-protection. Percheron is currently the TFA, so WP:Semi applies: "administrators should semi-protect it for brief periods in most instances". Vandalism has been mostly "normal" for a TFA, and protecting it until Sunday will mostly have no effect after today. Protecting admin seems to not have a problem with this. © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 21:41, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for 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.

    Handled requests

    A rolling archive of the last seven days of protection requests can be found at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Rolling archive.
