    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

    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.

    Antisemitism in the United Kingdom

    Could someone have a look at maybe protecting the Antisemitism in the United Kingdom page. There are two editors, with an anti-Corbyn agenda, determined to include a picture of Jeremy Corbyn. This is clearly a highly toxic and controversial issue in UK politics. But the picture was added only two weeks ago, shortly after the 2017 UK general election. There was no discussion and no consensus was sought. There's little evidence of a consensus for such a controversial move. Garageland66 (talk) 08:46, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    • Automated comment: @Garageland66: This request cannot be parsed. Please ensure it follows formatting consistent with the current or previous methods of submission.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 08:58, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Already protected by administrator There'sNoTime . CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 09:53, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Charles nzuki dominic

    Temporary create protection: Repeatedly recreated. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:45, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined Only one recreation. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 17:34, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Sonic Mania

    Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 16:42, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Pending-changes protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 17:36, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Norton LiveUpdate

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Potential sock per Codename Lisa (not sure which sock) and disruptive editing. -- Dane talk 16:45, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: @Dane: Explain to me the problem with the material - I followed it to the source, where it says, "when we uninstalled it, it left behind the separate LiveUpdate component. You have to know to go back and remove LiveUpdate as well." This seems to support the statement as indicated, except perhaps for the last few words? Samsara 17:15, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Alice in Chains

    Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – See genre discussion on talk. 4thewayne is claimming "bold" but is acting "own". - FlightTime Phone (open channel) 18:40, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 19:36, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Alexandre Lacazette

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Unsourced anon edits that need reverting . JMHamo (talk) 18:59, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 4 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 19:43, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Trolls (film)

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Many anonymous disruptive edits from users every time an episode of "The McElroy Brothers will be in Trolls 2" is released, due to their popularity and the conceit of the podcast being that they have already appeared in Trolls 2 (which has not been released). nightpool (talk) 19:59, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Samsara 20:32, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Different IPs are persistently blanking a paragraph over several weeks now... 86.131.228.143 (talk) 20:48, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. What I see, is that you keep reinserting WP:OR (somebody's research paper online) to call the Republican Party and Donald Trump fascists. And that's the only activity that's been deleted. — Maile (talk) 21:09, 11 August 2017 (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.

    Gobi Desert

    Unprotection: It's been eight years, low activity page. NE Ent 12:50, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Unprotected Samsara 14:06, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    That's right, bot, I've elevated the move protection as moves are clearly not needed here and have occurred in the past. Samsara 14:32, 11 August 2017 (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.
