    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 full protection: Persistent vandalism – Continued disruption from a particular user adding unrelated "see also" links to Pentecostal churches; as far as I know, Pentecostals usually don't put much emphasis to Mariology compared to Catholics. I am requesting full protection (as opposed to semi or ECP as this user has been editing (disruptively) for more than five years, and short of blocking him, a temporary full protection seems to be in order. See this ANI discussion thread for details. Blake Gripling (talk) 08:22, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined A block is more appropriate. This is the likely result of the ANI thread. Malinaccier (talk) 18:23, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary full protection: Persistent vandalism – Same rationale as with Our Lady of Arantzazu. Blake Gripling (talk) 08:34, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined See above. Malinaccier (talk) 18:28, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Han Chinese & Yuan dynasty

    Temporary semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. One new user and some IPs continuely edit unreliable sources (such as Non academic blog and Tianya Club) and content on these pages. I have already described it on the talk pages. No1lovesu (talk) 08:57, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Malinaccier (talk) 19:49, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. Pillowfluffyhead (talk) 15:09, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced content by numerous IPs. Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor 15:20, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: Dynamic IP user edit warring over an extended period, made no effort to discuss when article was semi'd before. RivertorchFIREWATER 15:43, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Already protected by administrator MelanieN. Samsara 21:22, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. –72 (talk) 19:33, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. — Maile (talk) 19:57, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Indefinite create protection: Repeatedly recreated – Got repeatedly created since over a year ago, initially was mostly for self promotion, then it was created for pure vandalism. -★- PlyrStar93. Message me. 🖉 19:52, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    For the listed version:
    Creation protected indefinitely. Samsara 20:03, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    For the correctly capitalised version:
    Creation protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Samsara 20:03, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    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.

    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.
