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.

Yaduvanshi dynasty
- Yaduvanshi dynasty (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Continous disruption from a week or so from novice accounts and IP ranges; diff, diff, diff & diff. SP or quite probably ECP is strongly needed at the minute. Packer&Tracker (talk) 10:30, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Canadian Premier League
- Canadian Premier League (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Protection was declined a couple days ago because IP was not warned on their talk page. They were since warned, but then continued to make similar edits removing information. RedPatch (talk) 11:11, 23 July 2022 (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 11:25, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Break My Soul
- Break My Soul (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Repeated addition of poorly sourced information, and information contrary to project guidance and consensus. >> Lil-unique1 (talk) — 13:47, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 20:50, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
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)
Mohammad Hussein
- Mohammad Hussein (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations. Tow (talk) 14:11, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Asmongold
Reason: Increased level of vandalism and doxing. SturmFernmelder (talk) 14:59, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 20:54, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Leroy Cronin
- Leroy Cronin (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Various IPs have been trying to keep his suspension by the Royal Society of Chemistry off the page by claiming that The Herald (Glasgow), a respectable daily paper, is a tabloid. Skywatcher68 (talk) 18:19, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 20:55, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Victor Trevor (talk) 20:46, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
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)
History of the United States (1945–1964)
- History of the United States (1945–1964) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Persistent edit warring by single-purpose account who does not leave edit summaries or engage on the talk page, and who only edits this one article. TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 05:43, 24 July 2022 (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 05:48, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Naagin (2015 TV series)
- Naagin (2015 TV series) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: High level of IP Vandalism. Too difficult to maintain the page. Imsaneikigai (talk) 09:39, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Baked Alaska (livestreamer)
- Baked Alaska (livestreamer) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Edit war FlantasyFlan (talk) 16:47, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Persistent edit warring by single-purpose account (Sevner). They essentially only edit this one article, constantly reverting very reliably sourced statements, possibly due to ideological bias. Previous editors had long but fruitless discussions with Sevner, this editor will never change their mind.
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 21:04, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
List of highest-grossing Bangladeshi films
- List of highest-grossing Bangladeshi films (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: High level of IP and account vandalism and misinformation. I warned them but they didn’t stop. Mehedi Abedin 16:54, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Chambhar
Reason: High level of vandalism. A user name Yash1110 adding a large number of fake or other article's content in Chambhar page. Total of the contents added by Yash1110 was about Chamar but there were no good source and most information was without any source. Chamar has a separate article on Wikipedia but this user adding Chamar information in this page without any reliable sources and using Wikipedia pages as reference or source. Chambhar is Maharashtrian caste and Chamars mostly found in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Haryana and neighbouring areas. Satveer Thakur Dholagarh (talk) 19:22, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
- Chamars and Chambhars are same. "Most information was without any source" go and check i gave valid source for each and every thing Yash1110 (talk) 20:15, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 20:16, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

April Fool Day
- April Fool Day (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
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)
