Current requests for increase in protection level
[edit]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.
Reason: Persistent Disruptive editing disruptive editing Growing persistent disruptive editing such as adding citations needed to a lead section goes against the ordermanual of style as well as removing parts of the Info on the Page fixed it so many times and IP users keep changing it users doing this as well Mikey551415 (talk) 04:43, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Declined @Mikey551415: It looks like disagreements are being sorted out on article talk as they should be. Johnuniq (talk) 08:34, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Reason: High level of IP vandalism Theonewithreason (talk) 06:23, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Johnuniq (talk) 09:19, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – The show is currently premiering, the participants list is secretive and is fully revealed in the premiere by 10 PM IST 1 SEPT 2024, however IPs are found to be adding so called leaked, predicted participants, this may continue till today's premiere completes. Hence semi-protection atleast for 24 hours requested to avoid unsourced and predictive additions to the article. Thewikizoomer (talk) 06:50, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of three days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Johnuniq (talk) 09:16, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Reason: High level of vandalism. Seyamar(245CMR)💬📜 09:39, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism by IP over a newly released film. Charliehdb (talk) 09:57, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- India–Singapore Comprehensive Economic Cooperation Agreement (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent addition of contentious material by drive-by IPs which has picked-up in recent months. The edits remain unaddressed and unexplained. A mid-term PP is needed on what is a perennial attractor of bad-faith actors (as witnesses by the page's history).

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]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.
Reason: (The redirect, not its target): The page was preemptively protected without prior deletion in logs. No prior history of vandalism. Requesting extended confirmed protection or autoconfirmed protection as WP:Featured articles is autoconfirmed-protected. 2003 LN6 07:02, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Weak oppose: There is no reason for anyone to be editing it. I got into something like this when I tried to request the removal of the protection for 9/11 (the redirect, not the article). However, I could potentially support reducing it to ECP to change it slightly faster in case the template gets deprecated. For now I oppose however. CharlieEdited (talk) 00:02, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Reason: I am requesting it here first since the admin who protected it passed away. Protection has been ongoing for nearly 7 years, which is definitely long enough for at least a trial run of no protection. Plus, page views are quite low and edits are infrequent, making it probably not much of a target for the average Wikipedia user. I support no protection but if vandalism ramps up again I would also be fine with PC. Semi is probably overkill but I would be somewhat fine with it.

- That page is a redirect. Do you mean Texas Revolution? Daniel Case (talk) 01:49, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Yes. CharlieEdited (talk) 03:33, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Unprotection: The company now likely meet WP:GNG due to new developments since 2015. A number of reliable sources now cover the studio: [1][2][3][4][5][6]. A redirect to Koch Media or Embracer Group, or the creation of a new article is now likely. OceanHok (talk) 06:17, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Not unprotected – There's currently a Draft:Vertigo Gaming, which seems to be about the same company. If it can be improved to the point where it passes WP:AFC, it can be moved to article space. Favonian (talk) 08:38, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Reason: I want to improve some content from Imran Khan Prp people (talk) 11:15, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
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.
