Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level[edit]

Request protection of a page, or increasing the 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.


September 11 attacks[edit]

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing. 48JCL TALK 14:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Many of the editors who engaged in the recent edit warring were EC ... upgrading to that level of protection would have no effect on them. If that's what prompted this report, the CTOPS designation allows to impose 1RR instead. Would you prefer that? Daniel Case (talk) 21:01, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
If the edit warrimg accounts were Extended-Confirmed, then shouldn't the article be Fully Protected so Extended-Confirmed Users can't edit it? 70.50.199.125 (talk) 20:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
We only full-protect pages during severe edit wars, and only for a short period of time (like, IME, never longer than a week). 1RR is better when we get to persistent edit warring involving editors at that level. Daniel Case (talk) 03:29, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Claire Redfield[edit]

Ip edits aren't helpful at all. Another IP pops up again and it definitely needs to be protected. 🍕Boneless Pizza!🍕 (🔔) 05:42, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 07:39, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

United Nations Security Council Resolution 2735[edit]

Reason: Should get extended protection, as all similar meaningful resolutions on this contentious topic do (e.g. United Nations Security Council Resolution 2720). Risk of vandalism and biased edits is high. CrazyPredictor (talk) 12:08, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Monica Gandhi[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism from at least two IP addresses over the past week. Appear to be focused on whitewashing the article on behalf of the article subject. Geoff | Who, me? 12:21, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Far-left politics[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – A significant portion of edits to this article are unsourced POV and other disruptive edits by IP editors. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 13:58, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Looking at disruption since the last protection regime expired, this is a remarkably stable page for such a reliably controversial topic. I can't myself justify indef semi, but if another admin wants to go there, that's fine with me too. BusterD (talk) 14:16, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Naraz[edit]

Create protection: Repeatedly recreated. Saqib (talk) 14:13, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Creation protected indefinitely. This is likely a notable subject, so I have zero issues with creation if it goes through the draft and NPP review process. BusterD (talk) 14:22, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Sri Lanka Cricket[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. Freyam Muhan 14:16, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. BusterD (talk) 14:25, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Mario Hezonja[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Large frequency of unsourced BLP changes from various IPs (and a joke-username account: DODJIHEZONJA, meaning "HEZONJA, COME [implied: to our club]"), pertaining to recently emerged rumors of his club change, which appeared in tabloids; see exampleAlalch E. 14:35, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Province of Foggia[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Hit by the same kind of vandalism as Foggia, carried out by an IP-hopper. Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 15:18, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Kusal Mendis[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations. MacAddct1984 (talk | contribs) 15:20, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Ricochet (wrestler)[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. — Czello (music) 15:48, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Xennials[edit]

Reason: Requesting protection yet again for persistent unsourced changes by IP editors. This page has had temporary protection applied three times in 2024. Can we please get permanent protection this time? – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:50, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the 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.

Current requests for edits to a protected page[edit]

Request a specific edit to a protected page
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.

2024 Nuseirat rescue operation[edit]

I would like to request that Nuseirat refugee camp massacre be linked under the 'See also' category in the same way this article is linked in the 'See also' category in the aforementioned article. This will give continuity between the two articles in avoid bias. matt. (talk) 06:45, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: @Magmamatt: 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 06:53, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
