    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
    this header: view • edit



    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.

    Articles that vandalized by JAJAKOLIN KO SI PJ SANTOS

    Semi-protection: Asking SEMI PROTECTION of these articles that vandalize by JAJAKOLIN KO SI PJ SANTOS. This user is keeping on creating many Wikipedia accounts to vandalize these articles so I requested to protect these articles. 120.29.66.122 (talk) 10:58, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: user that vandalize the article (JAJAKOLIN KO SI PJ SANTOS) was blocked. 180.241.209.235 (talk) 11:15, 11 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Non-admin comment: Do we need to protect 7 articles and a user talk into "full protection"? In full protection, only the admins can allowed to edit these specific articles, which means all the registered and experienced users (like myself) cannot edit those pages. Also, the all user talk pages like User talk:PJ Santos, cannot be protected as it is not an article. For me, there's no need to protect these pages as the incidents were only minor.

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism by sockpuppets. Approximately 60% of edits to this page in the last month were from potentially undisclosed paid editing sockpuppets (recently blocked here), including four in just the last 24 hours. There's no evidence the recent blocks will stop the recreation of more socks. I think maybe a short, two day protection might be enough to disrupt the carousel.

    Permanent semi-protection: Page is an irregular but consistent target for a very specific form of vandalism. Page is regarding age-related legal regulations and so vandalism seems to commonly be done with with intent to deceive others, with the most likely perpetrators being minors without registered accounts. I seem to be the only user who checks, as the last set was left up for several month, and I can't do this alone or forever.Legitimus (talk) 18:52, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    Friendlyjordies

    Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Consistent evidence of Sockpuppetry, as well as Disruptive Editing, and Vandalism, and even consistent misuse of Wikipedia Editing privileges to deliberately publish misleading/malicious content. Fairly controversial article, especially having just been described as "un-flattering" and "(the article) is as much of a battleground as Palestine" by the subject matter in recent content, risk of vandalism significant.Aubscool2 (talk) 01:40, 14 December 2020 (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.

    Nabih Berri

    Reduction in protection level: From extended confirmed to autoconfirmed access. The current protection blocks the imporvement of the article, while the proposed one would also keep it safe from vandalism. Berri didn't play a major role in the Arab-Israeli conflict. Ibra IV (talk) 18:53, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    Michel Aoun

    Reduction in protection level: From extended confirmed to autoconfirmed access. The current protection also blocks the imporvement of the article. Vandalism on this page was made only by IPs/unregistered account, meaning that an autoconfirmed protection would keep it safe from vandalism. Aoun is unnotable in the Arab-Israeli conflict.

    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.
