    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.

    Type 054A frigate

    Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Constant re-addition of disputed/inaccurate info by IP-hopping editor; editor avoids addressing issues in talk page interaction, and attempts to draw attention of other editors to the issue via other means have yet to bear fruit. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 12:42, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Fully protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Airplaneman ✈ 22:45, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Corus/Disney Channel Canada

    Temporary protection: High level of register editor disruptive editing against primary source, which were replace by legitimate news sources, and against notability to the point of disruptive editing. Ask another editor to intervene but he has come out (to a degree) for the disruptive editor. Spshu (talk) 13:33, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Disney Channel (Canada) Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. Airplaneman ✈ 22:53, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Alysia Rogers

    Permanent semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Apparently this person's birth date is disputed, and there's been an edit was over it for months now. Compassionate727 (talk) 18:19, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Bola tangkas

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent spamming by IP editors. Previously semi'd for 5 days and spammers returned in full force. Toohool (talk) 20:10, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. —GFOLEY FOUR!— 22:31, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    User:Nrwairport

    Indefinite full protection: The user associated with this userpage is claiming to have another account with 50,000 edits and 6 years' tenure even though he does not (when asked about the account, he reacts with hostility, and also claimed to be an admin before. I removed those templates for now; but when an editor reverted those boxes before, he reverts back. See this pending SPI for context. The user's userpage should be protected to prevent any more deception (a block isn't immediately needed yet until a CU is run). Esquivalience 20:13, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    WWE Divas Championship

    Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – If not vandalism. Also in my case, I'm willing to serve a 3RR block if it applies. Not very good at the subject. :(. Tropicalkitty (talk) 21:28, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Tough pill to swallow, I just don't know who to trust or where those sources are. Tropicalkitty (talk) 21:31, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
    Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. —GFOLEY FOUR!— 22:39, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Gjallarhorn

    Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Page has some pretty persistent disruptive editing/vandalism, due to it sharing a name of a highly sought after weapon in the video game Destiny. Sometimes nobody notices and it stays on for hours. Pretty much all edits since the 14th of August (2015) have been reverting vandalism. A PC protection would solve the issue. I believe the PC should last no more than a year, as it will probably not be vandalized for that long. Gamebuster19901 (Talk | Contributions) 21:32, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Airplaneman ✈ 23:04, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Jose Antonio Vargas

    Indefinite semiprotection: This BLP of a high-profile immigration activist has been subject to persistent and continual edit warring by clearly related new accounts attempting to insert inappropriate content. Tvoz/talk 21:35, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 2 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Airplaneman ✈ 23:01, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Dicks

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Long-term pattern of occasional vandalism on this page, which really should not be a surprise. Everymorning (talk) 22:28, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. If it's occasional we can handle it. —GFOLEY FOUR!— 22:30, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    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.

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Further information: Misplaced Pages:Edit requests 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 Misplaced Pages:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
    • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Misplaced Pages: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.
