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 |

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. IllaZilla (talk) 21:33, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © 01:49, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
Semi-protection: The edits are a combination of vandalism, BLP violations, and inappropriate edits that don't belong in either category. Unfortunately, one other editor and I are forced to revert all of them. Given that some are not technically exempt from 3RR, this theoretically subjects the other editor and me to a certain amount of unnecessary risk. Thus, to maintain the integrity of the article, semi-protection is needed. Bbb23 (talk) 21:26, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Persistent long term vandalism and BLP concerns. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © 21:31, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

- Go through the history and you will see NUMEROUS people adding in and changing genres without a source... Plus there is no need to add something in on the talk page, there is only one sourced genre in the article, and its only IP's adding it in--(CA)Giacobbe (talk) 21:55, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Seems to be a joke on Tumblr where everyone is changing the first sentence to "pronounced 'xylophone' " for some reason. A temp protection should stop it. andy4789 ★ · (talk? contribs?) 20:04, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

- Fully protected for 2 days. ItsZippy (talk • contributions) 19:21, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
Current requests for unprotection
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
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.
I would like to ask on the talk page if it is true that Jewish circumcision originally consisted only of a cut of the frenulum and that the current way of doing it was only introduced after certain "base fellows" under pagan Greek influence decided to have their circumcision surgically undone. -- 92.226.93.64 (talk) 01:07, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
- (Non-administrator comment) Judging by the looks of the protection log, unprotecting this article would only fuel more vandalism. Maybe you can leave a note on a registered user's talk page, or create an account. -- Luke (Talk) 01:28, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
