    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.

    Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing. 48JCL TALK 14:19, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Many of the editors who engaged in the recent edit warring were EC ... upgrading to that level of protection would have no effect on them. If that's what prompted this report, the CTOPS designation allows to impose 1RR instead. Would you prefer that? Daniel Case (talk) 21:01, 9 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    If the edit warrimg accounts were Extended-Confirmed, then shouldn't the article be Fully Protected so Extended-Confirmed Users can't edit it? 70.50.199.125 (talk) 20:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    We only full-protect pages during severe edit wars, and only for a short period of time (like, IME, never longer than a week). 1RR is better when we get to persistent edit warring involving editors at that level. Daniel Case (talk) 03:29, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Wugapodes/Capricorn

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism in the past. Pages with code installation instructions should be protected to prevent non-autoconfirmed from changing the instructions to install malware. Air on White (talk) 04:54, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Last disruption was in April 2023. If you desire protection for all script documentation pages, you should start a discussion at one of the village pumps. The real risk are the actual code pages, which are protected against editing from non-interface administrators and authors. Sdrqaz (talk) 03:15, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP hopping anonymous editor keeps removing a line about a non-binary character. Warnings haven't worked. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 05:38, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. If this is something we can address with a rangeblock, it's probably better to get the IPs together and take it to AN/I. Daniel Case (talk) 04:42, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Adult Swim (Latin American TV channel)

    Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content. Waxworker (talk) 07:25, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 04:44, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    X-Men '97

    Colombia

    Reason: Edit warring ElMexicanotres (talk) 10:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    The article is already protected. Do you mean upgrade the protection to Extended-Confirmed or Fully Protected? 70.50.199.125 (talk) 20:33, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah ElMexicanotres (talk) 00:29, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Pls see #White Mexicans above. Moxy🍁 02:19, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    That’s completely unrelated I ask for the Colombia page to be protected not for the white Mexicans page to be protected ElMexicanotres (talk) 03:03, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah what? Daniel Case (talk) 04:55, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry I’m pretty new to this I would like the page to be fully protected for a short period of time to ensure the edit warring doesn’t continue ElMexicanotres (talk) 05:00, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Extended confirmed protected indefinitely. Since both of you guys are not EC yet, this would work better to force you to talk it out. If I change to full with a three-day term, the article loses all protection when it expires, the way things presently work tech-wise. When you're ready to agree, we can go back to semi.

    The Amazing Digital Circus

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. ImTheAvidPheasant (talk) 19:01, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Already under pending-changes protection; disruption is at an insufficient frequency for semi-protection. Sdrqaz (talk) 03:15, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Disruption was a few days ago. Sdrqaz (talk) 03:15, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Remigration

    Reason: Pending changes protection: This article about a contentious political concept has a low-frequency stream of non-autoconfirmed users like this one removing sourced content. Not often enough to need semi-protection, but the article would benefit from these edits needing to go through pending changes review. Egsan Bacon (talk) 23:43, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Pending-changes protected for a period of six months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 05:13, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    The Strangers (film series)

    Reason: For whatever reason, there are several unregistered editors who continually add incorrect and uncited information on this page (specifically that the new trilogy is a "prequel" though there are various sources that state otherwise. If this is protected it will help deter the constant reversions of these edits. DisneyMetalhead (talk) 05:01, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
    Shortcuts

    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
    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.
