Wikipedia:Requests for page protection
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.

Current requests for increase in protection level
Template protection: High-risk template – Match protection level with Template:NFL predraft. * Pppery * it has begun... 22:41, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Not seeing a high risk here. If the situation changes come back. Ad Orientem (talk) 23:40, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
Already protected by administrator JJMC89. * Pppery * it has begun... 03:52, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Donnowin1 (talk) 22:47, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
Declined – Likely collateral damage as one or several users who are making improvements would be affected by the requested protection. MelanieN (talk) 03:12, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Persistent disruptive editing. Donnowin1 (talk) 01:20, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Declined – Likely collateral damage as one or several users who are making improvements would be affected by the requested protection. MelanieN (talk) 03:13, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – A series of IPs that geolocate to Florence has been persistently making unexplained changes to genetics data in the table in the "Distribution" section that directly contradict the given source, despite numerous reverts and warnings. It looks like vandalism since they appear to be falsifying the data, but at the least it's disruptively adding unsourced content. They've made similar changes to several other articles. IamNotU (talk) 06:03, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Indefinite Extended-confirmed Persistent vandalism - by multiple LTA's, and has been frequently added with offensive stuff. 133.130.54.206 (talk) 06:57, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Indefinitely adding this protection level isn't something I want to do at this time. Let's start with 3 months. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 07:04, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
- Automated comment: @133.130.54.206: 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 07:10, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Hydromania (talk) 08:02, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Indefinite create protection: Per this discussion. Basically a technical protection to prevent WP:Social from being created/used since WT:Social will redirect to WT Social. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 08:09, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
- Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland (UK Parliament constituency) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Semi-protection: IP vandalism, removing the legal name on the ballot for the Labour candidate and replacing it with an alias the candidate uses. --RaviC (talk) 09:14, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – High level of vandalism by several different IPs. HaeB (talk) 11:59, 24 November 2019 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. -- Ed (Edgar181) 12:26, 24 November 2019 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

{{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.
