Revision as of 00:35, 5 December 2010

"WP:RFP" and "WP:RPP" redirect here. You may also be looking for Wikipedia:Requests for permissions, Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission, or Wikipedia:Random page patrol.
    Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.
    Shortcuts

    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

    I second this request. The unsourced POV edits has been reverted by multiple editors and Wikipedia policies have been explained to the IP numerous times. I suggest a month long protection, at least.--brewcrewer (yada, yada) 23:50, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Indefinite semi-protection vandalism, A particular IP vandal has decided this would make a good target for vandalism. As such, since the end of the competition (~ 5 months) the article has been protected at least twice -- perhaps even thrice -- and the vandal shows no sign of stopping. Indefinite protection please; this article should be kept, but those who protect pages seem to have had an abject fear of lengths longer than 2-months. Xenon54 (talk) 20:18, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:59, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection vandalism, Pattern of IP vandalism going all the way back to November 15th. In that time there has been one "good" IP edit (an interwiki). Lots of different IPs on different /8 ranges. NYKevin @840, i.e. 19:09, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Actually, since this is a C-class, Pending Changes might be good idea here. --NYKevin @855, i.e. 19:30, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Semi-protected -- Three months. Long-term school vandalism, including obscenity. I think Pending Changes is still waiting for some new ratification. EdJohnston (talk) 19:55, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Indefinite full protection with full revert back to November 30.

    Tendentious editing with apparent objective to remove all material not supportive of Talmudic view alone. --Michael Paul Heart (talk) 18:16, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected -- One month. There is some IP vandalism, but what's mostly happening is a content dispute between registered editors. Follow the steps of WP:Dispute resolution. It tells the things you can do if no agreement can be reached on Talk. EdJohnston (talk) 20:02, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Indefinite semi-protection, This page is regarding a controversial topic. Could use semi protection. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 18:12, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of a month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:56, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection rumors of a trade are bringing out the IP's in record droves. --Muboshgu (talk) 17:34, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    We could really use the help here. It's picking up, and the trade isn't final and could fall apart if there is no agreement on a contract extension. --Muboshgu (talk) 19:09, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Fully protected for a period of 24 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:44, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Talk:Church_of_Satan (edit | article | history | links | watch | logs)

    Semi-protection, specifically for the talk page, not the article, because some looney dynamic IP editor keeps going on about his personal theories, and about him being "Sahtahn," and a bunch of other nonsense. He has been told repeatedly that we're not a discussion forum nor a blog, and his response was to say that he's an angel. It's that or ban all IP addresses starting with 75.20* Ian.thomson (talk) 16:52, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 6 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. and then reevaluate. It's too large for a rangeblock. Courcelles 18:05, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Even if we only block those in CIDR range 75.202.0.0/15 (i.e. 202 and 203, only), we'd be hitting a lot of legitimate IPs, so a rangeblock is infeasible. --NYKevin @851, i.e. 19:25, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    semi-protection, Several biased edits over a long period of time. "My movies are better than yours" edits. . Amog | Talk • contribs 14:03, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of a week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:52, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protection, Article has been constantly vandalized. Article is brief and well cited by sources ranging from Time Magazine to Forbes. Vandals are changing information to vulgar terms, incorrect information, and slander. Please consider for semi protection against vandalism.- User: Don't have an account yet.

    Current requests for unprotection

    Shortcuts

    Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on 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.

    Unprotection, Article was edited once by a known sockpuppet, but the article attracted good IP edits and has been semi-protected for over a year. Protecting admin hasn't responded to request on their talk page made over a week ago. -- Eraserhead1 <talk> 21:05, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Unprotected HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:46, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Shortcut

    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.
