    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.

    template:trout

    High-risk template; over a thousand transclusions.102.157.168.108 (talk) 05:07, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    If you're asking for extended-confirmed protection or template protection, this template is not at the level for either of those. Extended-confirmed needs 2500 transclusions and template protection needs 5000. Also, a bot does this automatically. I am recommending an admin decline this request for this reason.

    Declined Per above. Daniel Case (talk) 01:12, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    OVO Sound

    Reason: It seems that more and more users, registered or not, have vandalized the article by changing words into things related to the Drake-Kendrick feud after its first block got expired. Underdwarf58 (talk) 11:30, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. Since the last protection I imposed expired, there has been only one reverted edit. Daniel Case (talk) 02:30, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Fatima Payman

    Reason: Extended Confirmed, High amount of misleading and biased information coming from accounts that would surpass the lower 2 levels of protection. This person is currently in quite a political controversy, leading to lots of revisions for accounts that otherwise would be able to edit under autocon and con. DeadlyRampage26 (talk) 14:10, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Oppose: I have not witnessed vandalism or edit disputes regarding WP:NPOV. There have been many edits that have improved the quality ranging from minor corrections to restructuring. The only few instances of vandalism have come from IP users. If needed, pending changes protection would be sufficient for the purpose of averting the few vandalism instances. Y.

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the 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.

    Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

    Brenda Biya

    Reason: Biya has recently received international media coverage (see below) over her coming out. She already has an article on the French Wikipedia, which I have translated at Draft:Brenda Biya. Coverage:

    Wolf salute

    Reason: The protection is not necessary because this article itself has a biased and politically tailored nature. The article does not define the hand gesture and usages of it. The article solely focuses on Turkish nationalistic usage of it. However this hand gesture have been around for a lot of years and used by many for many reasons… Please either suspend the false content of this article completely or remove the protection because protecting a politically biased article with false content.Ucanelma (talk) 01:40, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Request a specific edit to a protected page
    Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
    Shortcut

    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.
