Revision as of 19:47, 20 June 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.

    Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. ElectricBurst(Electron firings)(Zaps) 21:38, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – The UPN Vandal is refusing to let up even with pending changes. Looks like semi-protection is the only way to go at this point. ElectricBurst(Electron firings)(Zaps) 21:47, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary full protection:A user keeps changing the format, making it look less like other sidebars about presidential candidates. Since this is an autoconfirmed user making these changes, it looks like full protection (temporary) is the only way to go about this. --Proud User (talk) 22:20, 19 June 2016 (UTC) It turns out that this reversion summary made me think that consistency was being removed when it was really being added.--Proud User (talk) 13:27, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Comment Currently being discussed on talk page. --Jules (Mrjulesd) 23:37, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    I'd like to point out that Proud User is making a deceptive comment here: He is the one that keeps trying to interfere with the article, and I'm simply trying to put it back to how it was originally. However, he's trying to phrase things to make it look like I'm the one who made the edit. If you check the history of the article, you'll see that I've never made any edits to it at all: I'm simply trying to revert two unjustified edits. Here is a link to the article before Proud User interfered with it:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Bernie_Sanders_series&oldid=722822373

    He keeps switching out the picture with no justification, and I keep undoing the edit. He's already past the three-revert-rule.
    InternetMeme (talk) 12:33, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    The image was like that before you changed it (see here), and I said that there needs to be a consensus before it is changed agian. I see nothing "deceptive" about this. The user that made the above comment is also changing the format without explanation.--Proud User (talk) 12:35, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    No, that's a straight up lie: Check the link above. That is the original image, and it's you who changed it. I am simply revertin it to how it was originally. You're trying to make sound like I'm the one changing the image when it's you.
    The other edit you seem to be insisting on is removing Sanders's endorsements, on the grounds that it's "consistent". However, I not that you forgot to remove the endorsements from the Hillary Clinton series template.
    So, in summary, you want to:
    1. Switch out Sanders's image for a clearly inferior one.
    2. Remove his endorsements.
    What is your intention here?
    InternetMeme (talk) 12:43, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, this edit seems to say that you were removing consistency (and I went along with it, paying less attention to detail than I should have). I agree that this template should mention endorsements, but not in the place you were putting them. This template should be consistent with Template:Hillary Clinton series. My intentions are to keep consistency, although I must say I didn't realize that you were actually adding the "endorsements" link rather than moving them. However this should be discussed on a different page. --Proud User (talk) 12:48, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Comment This was discussed in the talk page and Urartu_TH simply refuses to listen to reason. He also deceptively makes claims of "genocide denial" when no such thing has occurred anywhere. The issue at hand is that he removes historical facts that I summarized for the article's intro, in order to REPEAT information (using a biased citation from a person with a conflict of interest on the topic) that is already in the body of the article. He's the one doing vandalizing and deleting pertinent information in favor of reducing the quality of the article because his goal is to repeat links to another article that he frequently visits.

Note that he has lied about my intentions in order to create an emotional-appeal (this is a fallacy) and has not assumed any good faith of other users. talk § _Arsenic99_ 17:05, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    You have twisted the scenario into a convoluted mess. You made the first edit in question here. That edit deleted text about the Armenian Genocide which had been summarizing part of the article just as other information in the body is summarized in the introduction. You've replaced it with information that is not cited and not particularly useful to the article in an attempt to whitewash any mention of the Armenian Genocide in the introduction. I've asked you to speak about this on the talk page before editing any further and continuing to remove the information about the Armenian Genocide from the introduction (which is well-cited, is in the body and has been in introduction as a short stigmatization for a long time without issue) but you have continued to vandalize the page.

    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 in protection level: From full protection to semi-protected. The editor that protected the page is ignoring requests to lower protection or reverting the blanking. Tandrewmark (talk) 10:13, 19 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: You are at fault here, and have been given multiple sufficient explanations as to how your actions are inappropriate. TJH2018talk 16:45, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Are you saying that you are not going to revert the blanking that was consensuated because someone thought I did not behave correctly in the past? Tandrewmark (talk) 19:33, 20 June 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.
