==Current requests for reduction in protection level==

Revision as of 16:53, 4 December 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 disruptive editing – Repeated additions of the same inappropriate material by two different editors and an IP, semi-protection might help save the editor from digging him/herself into a yet deeper pit. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:01, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: one editor is the same as at Kathiawari, already protected for similar reasons by CambridgeBayWeather (thank you!). Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 12:05, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    User(s) blocked. Both of the editors have been blocked for 31 hours and they could have edited through semi anyway. The IP should be easy enough to deal with if not let me know. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 12:14, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Aṭlas (talk) 12:26, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    User Atlas is reverting without giving any explanations. I have initiated a talk page disucssion but User Atlas refuses to take part in the discussion at Censorship_of_Assyrian_genocide_and_blanking_of_human_rights_abuses_against_Christian_Assyrian_minority_by_User_Atlas and continues his blanking of content without explanation. --88.128.80.62 (talk) 13:15, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    You just restored your edits, all this was removed by the admin Dianna in 20 November 2016. --Aṭlas (talk) 13:21, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    No I most certainly did not do that, and you are giving no proof at all. Everything that was added since was rewritten according to rules of wikipedia. There is no more violation because it was rewritten.
    I asked you on the talk page where you still see problems, so I can fix them, but you did not reply. --88.128.80.62 (talk) 13:23, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. Looks like an edit war. Use the talk page. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 16:11, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    salt: from further page recreation as requested on AfD. As the David SK Lee article had already been salted to prevent page recreation following AfD discussion but despite this, this user Veri854 chose to recreate it as a draft article.

    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.

    Ranvir Shorey

    Unprotection: Please unprotect this article as it has become outdated and i need help from other ip editors or wikipedia editors to improve upon this subject. This article is protected since May 2011 and now the vandalism will not happen after 6 years because of the time lapse and this article needs some up gradation in references and information. Regards L.D. (talk) . L.D. (talk) 18:00, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

    @Cenarium: -- zzuuzz (talk) 19:30, 3 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    Note:. User is autconfirmed and can edit the article and has been since before this request. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 12:27, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • I've reduced it to PC1, as the initial disruption that motivated the protection was bad (required oversight), and though it may well have died down by now, we should still be cautious. Cenarium (talk) 13:04, 4 December 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.
