Requests for page protection | |
---|---|
This page is for requesting that a page, file or template be fully protected, create protected (salted), semi-protected, added to pending changes, move-protected, template protected (template-specific), upload protected (file-specific), or unprotected. Please read up on 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 only to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection), and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars. After a page has been protected, the protection is listed in the page history and logs with a short description indicating why it was protected, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. Further discussion should take place on the Talk page of the article. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins do not revert to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism.
If you would like to request a page to be protected, have an existing protection level lowered or an edit request, please follow the following steps:
=== [[Example Article Name]] === * {{pagelinks|Example Article Name}} '''Semi-protection:''' High level of IP vandalism. ~~~~ === [[Template:Example Template Name]] === * {{pagelinks|Template:Example Template Name}} '''Unprotection:''' From full protection to template editor protection. ~~~~
=== Short descriptive header === * {{pagelinks|Wikipedia:Example Page Name 1}} * {{pagelinks|Wikipedia:Example Page Name 2}} '''Temporary semi-protection:''' High level of IP vandalism. ~~~~ |

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 rolling 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.
The Jungle Book (2016 film)
- The Jungle Book (2016 film) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced content by different IP's. When the film is released internationally next week, the level of vandalism will most likely increase. Downwiththesyndrome (talk) 12:39, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
WrestleMania 32
- WrestleMania 32 ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Everybody and their uncle is throwing info into the article that isn't referenced and has WP:NPOV issues. Vjmlhds 12:46, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Farmers Cricket Club Ground
- Farmers Cricket Club Ground ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary full protection: Persistent vandalism. wiki tamil 100 14:03, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
- (non-admin comment) Tagging an article as needing improvement isn't vandalism. On the plus side, this nom did lead me to that article, which I've since expanded. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:00, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- (non-admin comment) At the time of the request, the requestor was the only person to have ever edited the page. Also claimed "vandalism" when asking for his user page to be protected - Arjayay (talk) 12:33, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Rated R (Rihanna album)
- Rated R (Rihanna album) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP keeps on making changes which aren't needed. Have given one warning to the IP as a welcome template but is persistent. . — Calvin999 15:19, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Kevin Simm
- Kevin Simm ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. 2602:306:3357:BA0:E593:9671:5C8D:1A40 (talk) 20:07, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Laura Aguilar
- Laura Aguilar ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The subject of this page has been the topic of some debate recently, and IP users have begun vandalising the page. I request short-term semi-protection, at least until the AfD debate is sorted out. Smith(talk) 22:29, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Pramukh Swami
- Talk:Pramukh Swami Maharaj ( | subject | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary full protection: High level of edit warring and white washing occurring on talk pages. A group of users are removing talk page topics potentially due to conflict of interest even though cited articles state sexual abuse allegations of Pramukhswami who is a famous guru with thousands of centers throughout the globe. This was discussed when the allegations became public and it was decided that two former members accusing the swami of rape and abuse was not important to include because of said reasons on talk page even though the group, BAPS, acknowledged the allegations and denied any wrongdoing. Alleged members of the sect on wikipedia have become obsessed with removing this archived discussion. Swamiblue (talk) 04:21, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Maria Sharapova
- Maria Sharapova ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – There seems to be one editor against four in this content dispute. I didn't make the edit but I tried a couple reverts to no avail. With the fact the recent drug issue with Sharapova has caused blood levels to rise (and she won't be playing anytime soon so no worries about keeping the article up to date) I was hoping for a week protection to see if we can come up with any compromises on the talk page. Fyunck(click) (talk) 05:44, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Will Smith (defensive end)
- Will Smith (defensive end) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This person died tonight and IP's are wrecking havoc on the page. Please protect for a couple of days until details are released. Rockchalk717 06:05, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Declined The request made sense at the time, but since then the vandalism has stopped and IPs have made a number of good edits. Yaris678 (talk) 12:31, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Ice Age: Continental Drift
- Ice Age: Continental Drift ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Cryo-Cell International
- Cryo-Cell International ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content, and neutrality violations. Opencooper (talk) 07:25, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Talk:Lexa (The 100)
- Talk:Lexa (The 100) ( | subject | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection (a week or so): Persistent disruption from an IP-hopping, disgruntled, indefinitely blocked editor; see this section on my talk page, and this IP of his that was recently blocked. Blocking the IP will not stop this editor from posting at that talk page soon afterward, which is why I am requesting protection of the talk page. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 07:36, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Anthony Joshua
- Anthony Joshua ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: – Increasingly high level of IP vandalism and disruptive editing, as he has just won a major world title in the past 24 hours. A few days of SPP ought to fend 'em off. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 08:43, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Serbian language
- Serbian language ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Semi-protection: IP insisting on his edit and refusing to discuss. JorisvS (talk) 10:10, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Note: I have just warned the IP. If this continues, we should block that IP. If the new IPs are used we should consider range block or semi-protection. Yaris678 (talk) 12:57, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. Katietalk 18:56, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Born again
- Born again ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Restore page protection due to Edit warring / content dispute which was removed after page was moved. 31.49.133.154 (talk) 13:26, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Leela (2016 film)
- Leela (2016 film) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary pending changes: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Adding largely unsourced contents by IPs. Need protection for atleast 2 months. Charles Turing (talk) 14:11, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
- Pending-change protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Katietalk 18:57, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Kurdish women
- Kurdish women ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: High level of black washing, WP:POV, WP:ORIGINAL, Cherry pickings and meatpuppetting. Ferakp (talk) 15:16, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
-
- If I may, strong oppose. As a veteran editor, who WP:DGAF, this is a strongly POV pushing editor who seems to be adept at using a variety of forums to try to 'lock in' his preferred views on violence against Kurdish women (which, apparently, is nothing to see here, folks). Shawn in Montreal (talk) 15:25, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
-
- I strongly disagree with Shawn in Montreal. Shawn in Montreal attacked me personally, called me as an editor with a clear pro-Kurdish nationalist bias. Now he is following me and continuing the same behavior against me. This user has very weird behavior towards Kurdish articles. He wants to keep the Kurdish terrorism category, but wants to delete the Turkish terrorism category. He reversed my changes which were simply appropriate edits, I changed two statements against WP:POV and WP:ORIGINAL, but he wanted to kept them even though they were clearly falsified statements and sources didn't verify them. Also, I explained all edits statement by statement, what is wrong with them and how they should be edited according to the WP rules. One user is continuously using different IP address and black washing Kurdish articles. I believe Shawn in Montreal is supporting those Turks who are continuously black washing Kurdish articles. He is happy with all edits against Kurdish articles, but not happy with edits when even something than positive is added to Turkish articles. Ferakp (talk) 18:10, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Long term persistent copyright violations, even after users have been warned against this in edit summaries. DarkKnight2149 18:57, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Current requests for reduction in protection level
- To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "View 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 here if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Un-salt This article title was salted after two successful deletion nominations. The main concern was failure to meet WP:BIO and the nature of the article (a young sportswoman subject to sexualization) complicated creation of anything useful at the time (2007). That time has long since passed and I have written a new draft at User:Sillyfolkboy/Allison Stokke which I feel is strong and resolves all the concerns mentioned in past discussions. This was salted in 2007 so original admin is now inactive. Please can this be unsalted so I can create the article? Thanks. SFB 17:32, 10 April 2016 (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
{{Edit protected}}
,{{Edit template-protected}}
,{{Edit semi-protected}}
or{{Request edit}}
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 Category:Wikipedia fully-protected edit requests, Category:Wikipedia template-protected edit requests, Category:Wikipedia semi-protected edit requests or Category:Requested edits respectively. - Page move requests 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 locked. Please make requests as long as you have a specific edit you wish to make.
