Requests for page protection | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
This page is for requesting that a page, file or template be protected. 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. 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, 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. Note: Editors should not consider requesting page protection as a method for continuing an argument from elsewhere nor as a venue for starting a new discussion regarding article content. If a request contains excessive argument, appears to be intended to resolve a content dispute, includes personal attacks or uncivil comments, or has any other unrelated discussion, it will be removed from this page and no action will be taken.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
- The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: High level of racist vandalism throughout the month as trailers for the show have been released. This will likely only continue/worsen as we get closer to its September release date. TNstingray (talk) 13:49, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. I have kept an eye on this article for about a month now, and do not feel that it is worth protecting. The racial material was from a week ago. While I see some disruptive editing, quite a lot is coming from extended-confirmed users and I feel that full protection would be overkill. Please re-report if the frequency of vandalism increases.

2022 SRX Series
- 2022 SRX Series (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: I request semi-protection (anonymous users blocked from editing) for a few days. The final race of the season happened tonight and people are saying on social media that there was a scoring error in the final championship standings with a different driver and as a result, Ryan Newman won the championship instead of Marco Andretti. There has yet to be official confirmation from the SRX that there was an error and people are making vandalous edits to the article as a result. I think that Andretti should be listed as the champion unless a scoring error is officially announced by the SRX. Cavanaughs (talk) 03:25, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Dortheys Hiyo Eluay International Airport
- Dortheys Hiyo Eluay International Airport (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Very persistent vandalism by several accounts and IP over months to the point it could be count as a very long and slow but persistent edit war. IPs and accounts did not respond to any discussion attempt, insisting the new airport name was not approved (despite sourced statements in the article) and removed any referenced mentions of new name proposals, while providing no source of their own.

Unprotection: I propose unprotecting this redirect after 13 years since few other redirects to the Day are protected in any fashion. For references, I had left a message to the protecting admin a few weeks ago but I received no replies. Thanks. NotReallyMoniak (talk) 13:00, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- @NotReallyMoniak: While I wouldn't have protected that redirect (certainly not at that level), why do you need to edit it? The only thing I can think of is altering redirect categories. Sdrqaz (talk) 22:18, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
