Wikipedia:Requests for page protection

Page semi-protected
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Wikipedia:RfPP)
    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

    Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload 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.


    Cushitic-speaking peoples

    Reason: IP editor & another editor have been edit-warring for eleven days. I encouraged them to discuss on Talk. IP editor is not happy with input of other editors & has returned to edit warring. Pathawi (talk) 01:33, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    2024 Mannheim stabbing

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Repeated vandalism from User:SelfStarter2, reverted 2 edits. F3ew (talk) 07:25, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. @F3ew warning to the editor on their talk page may be more appropriate for now. – robertsky (talk) 10:26, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Will try warning but given the history of 'vandalism' tags on their contributions page, I'm not very hopeful that it will work. – F3ew 11:33, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    List of characters in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai

    Reason: Indefinite Semi-Protection: persistent vandalism since previous protections expired, constant tampering with main cast Imsaneikigai (talk) 10:09, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Hindu nationalism

    Reason: Indefinite Semi-Protection: persistent vandalism from unregistered users. Related to Hindutva which has indefinite semi-protection. Pachu Kannan (talk) 11:55, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 13:16, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Korbin Albert

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – vandalism. Joeykai (talk) 13:03, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    American Airlines Flight 1420

    Reason: IP keeps adding "first day of Pride Month" to the lead, which while yes it was the first day of Pride Month, is hardly relevant to the article. Would like to see it semiprotected for the next 72 hours. Springeragh (talk) 13:41, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yuno Miles

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. From an LTA. This may not deter them who vandalize other pages and edit on their user page anyway, but I think some form of protection will help slightly. Aaron Liu (talk) 13:52, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Pithapuram Assembly constituency

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent addition of inaccurate information ahead of 4 June election results. MacAddct1984 (talk | contribs) 14:36, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    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

    Request a specific edit to a protected page
    Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

    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.


    Israel-Hamas War

    I would like to request that... (the map be updated to show that Israel now controls the entire Gaza-Egypt border) . LordOfWalruses (talk) 15:25, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Daniyal Chaudhary

    n March 2024, he was added to the FIA's Provincial National Identification List (PNIL) to prevent him from leaving the country after he was made part of an investigation related to the assassination of Chaudhry Muhammad Adnan, an independent candidate, ran from constituency NA-57 Rawalpindi-VI in the 2024 Pakistani general election.[3] According to media reports, Adnan had political differences with Chaudhary and he had repeatedly expressed concerns about his safety, indicating that he perceived Chaudhary as a threat. Adnan made it explicit that if any harm came to him, he would hold Chaudhary accountable.[4] World No 1 strategist (talk) 23:47, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
