Revision as of 19:36, 23 December 2017


    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.

    Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark

    Temporary semi-protection. An ip, who is a wp:single purpose account, considers OM-related articles their wp:OWN. There is an edit warring with me and this ip. I have improved a lot this article in the last 24 hours, finding reliable sources for the "impact on other artists" section. I added quotes of musicians naming this group. I explained my edits but I have been accused as being the owner of this article whereas I had never edited at OMD before. This ip has been editing on OMD -related articles for months using ips with the numbers 82.132 . Woovee (talk) 03:11, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. - Next time: Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 03:19, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Coffee, I thought I had asked that only registred users can edit on the article in the next days. I certainly didn't want and think that the last ip's version with non neutral information of appearing online was gelled until 30 December. Woovee (talk) 03:31, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    @Woovee: Please read WP:EW to understand why you aren't getting special treatment here. Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 03:33, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection: A brand new account, obviously a sock (only three edits, all to this article in the last day, cites obscure Wikipedia policies) is making BLP violating edits. Volunteer Marek 08:01, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    I'm the brand new account. Recently registered, long time IP editor. Volunteer Marek removed stable content sourced to WSJ, Politico, etc. without consensus now they're edit warring to preserve the change. No talk page discussion, just a nebulous "BLP" accusation. Now they're gaming page protection. Talk page discussion i.e. "consensus" is needed, not protection. TeddyToons (talk) 08:08, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    If you just recently registered, it might be a good idea NOT to start your editing history by starting an edit war and reinserting BLP violating material into the article. Volunteer Marek 08:11, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Is the "BLP violating material" in the WSJ or Politico? And how has it been there for months without anyone else noticing? Hmm. Start a discussion, point to the sentence or paragraph then we'll address it. Crying "BLP" doesn't help. TeddyToons (talk) 08:17, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary full protection: As with others accused of sexual abuse, there's much indignant, WP:BLPCRIME-violating soapboxing going on even by registered editors, such as here, in additional to the usual anon-IP vandalism.

    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.

    Johnny Manziel

    Removal of pending changes: This was indefinitely semi-protected two weeks ago, but pending changes was not removed. This article no longer needs pending changes protection because all edits will be automatically accepted and there will be no need for any edits to be reviewed. I have already asked the protecting admin. Please remove pending changes while keeping semi-protection in place. —MRD2014 Merry Christmas! 17:13, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    *Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 17:32, 23 December 2017 (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
