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. 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 |

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Addition without references, use diff IP for disruptive editing. Aleenf1 11:39, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
- Non-admin comment Aleenf1, I see this article is more likely to be semi-protected instead because none of autoconfirmed users that adding unsourced content, just multiple IPs that vandalize the article whose that edit was reverted by autoconfirmed users. Meanwhile, an ECP also intend to have distruptive behavior before, so is more likely a content dispute for me. 36.76.239.33 (talk) 12:01, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

- You're just ridicolous: you crying again to get what you want. I explained my reasons: the two broadcasters are in the same situation of Futbol TV and Uzreport for Uzbekistan and you don't want to admit it, so you invented those phantomatic threats and just reverted without any explanation, nothing. It's just too much for you to admit that you're not right just for once, but it's also clear that it's incoherent your position about that table. It's worse than trying to explain it to a child, because what matters for you it's just that your version is better than the ones of everyone else. And the sad thing is that the others here will give you what you want and won't even try to understand or verify what is wrong in that table, because a spoiled child should always get what he wants. Grow up. --37.163.41.239 (talk) 13:25, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in 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.

Ian Greenstreet
- Ian Greenstreet (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Unprotection:This article is create protected, however its an article of a prominent Ghanaian investment banker that deserves a Wikipedia article. I came across a draft Draft:Ian Greenstreet version and upon checking the history it seemed to have been created and deleted about 3 times in the past due to the fact that the article was created using marketing language and not a notable subject. As mentioned the individual is notable in Ghana and having him on Wikipedia will serve readers who seek such information. Lastly I have checked the current draft and am pretty sure its rid of all marketing language.--Flixtey (talk) 12:21, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page
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.
