    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.

    Current requests for protection

    Place requests for new or upgrading of article protection, upload protection, or create protection at the BOTTOM of this section. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

    Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    semi-protect. Link to AMPTP website (amptp.org) repeatedly redirected to parody site at amptp.com. --MarkHB (talk) 08:21, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    Template:Flavor of Love Series (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

    full protection While not under constant vandalism, this template is merely a redirect to Template:Flavor of Love, and thus does not need editing for the foreseeable future. All edits (excluding reversions) since the redirect was created have been vandalism. --Dreaded Walrus 06:04, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    Fully protected -- Anonymous Dissident 08:36, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    Over an hour, can someone please respond. Thanks. Marlith /C 05:57, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
    Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Pigman 06:25, 16 December 2007 (UTC)
    Er, a little late with this and three hours since last vandalism when I semi-protected the page. Not sure whether to adjust time frame or lift protection. Pigman 06:31, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    User talk:Imcompa (edit | user page | history | links | watch | logs)

    full protection , User using page to soapbox. Please revert and lock the page..The Evil Spartan (talk) 01:39, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    The Day of Black Sun (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    temporary semi-protection , This page is currently heavily edited by anonymous users and most, if not all, of the edits are vandalism, original research, or information that, for one reason or another, has been previously reverted..Parent5446 23:54, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    User talk:Chardish (edit | user page | history | links | watch | logs)

    Semi-protect again, preferably for a longer period of time. Old semi-protection was lifted and immediately page started getting hit by vandalism from anons. Likely the target of a bot attack. - Chardish (talk) 01:18, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 02:02, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    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.

    Khojaly Massacre (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    unprotection , The page has been protected for more than 3 months now. And all the disputes in the talk have died down. .VartanM (talk) 06:56, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    I think it is a little premature. Recently 2 pages got protected because of edits wars involving the same users. Unprotection may result in resumption of the edit war. Grandmaster (talk) 08:41, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

    Bone Thugs-n-Harmony (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Unprotect - I could be wrong but this page (along with almost all Bone Thugs-n-Harmony related articles) was 'protected' by someone who was not on the list of admins and didn't give a real compelling reason they needed protecting given the article(s) history. τßōиЄ2001 (ǂ ) 00:35, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    Done has never been protected. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 02:05, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    Current requests for significant 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 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.

    Piranha (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Long term Semi-protect This page is vandalized on a regular basis. Almost all anonymous edits have been vandalisms.--Mr Fink (talk) 21:54, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    Template:Timeline of iMac models (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

    Temporary Full, it's an edit war between me and another editor who doesn't believe in using talk pages (see his last comment on the talk page). I have set the template to an edit made by someone else from before I made changes to the template and before the opposing editor started editing Misplaced Pages. If protection is enforced, please use the edit made on (20:50, 15 December 2007), as it is the most neutral edit. Butterfly0fdoom (talk) 20:49, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    Fully protected in the wrong version. --Oxymoron 21:01, 15 December 2007 (UTC)


    Bairam Khan (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Semi-protect, the page has been vandalised 13 times over the past 24 hours, with varying IP addresses (seemingly the same person) adding fallacious information in contradiction of printed sources. There are no sources that even suggest the theory of what he's pushing, it seems to be a blatant attempt to add untruths to WP. Sherurcij 19:46, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 72 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. east.718 at 19:49, December 15, 2007
