    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.

    Larryboy: The Cartoon Adventures

    Indefinite Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism; High level of IP vandalism throughout the article's history. Yoshiman6464 (talk) 03:41, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. MelanieN (talk) 23:11, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Stitched Up Heart

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. 2601:188:1:AEA0:65B8:F59A:5E97:E329 (talk) 03:58, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. The recent IP edits seem to be, not vandalism, but a disagreement over the name of one of the members. I spent about an hour researching this and I think I have figured it out and corrected it. See talk page for details. MelanieN (talk) 00:06, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Marty Schmidt

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Edit warring by IPs and new accounts with some personal attacks in edit summaries and additions of various unsourced information. Subject is a recently deceased person and the accounts claim to be current and past members of the family, evidently there's a lot of strong feeling there. bonadea contributions talk 07:41, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    • combining duplicate request: COI IPs and new SPAs seem to be squabbling over the article content. I have not looked at the content yet but the edit summaries are BLP vios Meters (talk) 07:49, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Fully protected for a period of two weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This si a huge mess, and least one registered account was involved, so I've locked it down. All of the disputed edits will need to be gone through one by one to see if further revdel is required. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:08, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Coverage of Google Street View

    Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Multiple seasoned editors edit-warring over inclusion of Palestine. : has implications under WP:ARBPIA too I expect, but haven't looked into that. Muffled Pocketed 10:42, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    List of Tokyo Disneyland attractions

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Almost all of it was from a single now-blocked user, several days ago. Beeblebrox (talk) 01:07, 26 October 2016 (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.

    Indian annexation of Hyderabad

    Indefinite pending changes: The article was protected back in 2009 for sockpuppetry reasons. Let's try a lower protection to see if the article can receive better attention. © Tbhotch™ (en-2.5). 09:42, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Good grief, is this a long chain of page moves. ARBIPA isn't my area, but the sockmaster seems to have been inactive for the last couple of years. The only active admin in the protection chain is Philg88, so let's start there. Katietalk 19:29, 25 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Boney Kapoor

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Please make boney kapoor's page from temporary semi protection to permanent semi protection because this page has been attacked by many ips in a long or short duration of time. . Arjun Kapoor 85 (talk) 01:48, 26 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Further information: Wikipedia:Edit requests
    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.

    Handled requests

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