Wikipedia:Requests for page protection
| 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

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. — Czello (music) 16:39, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- If we do that, since we usually go to full-protection for only a few days and MediaWiki does not currently allow us to layer full and semi-protections, the article would remain unprotected when the protection expires until we could reprotect it if necessary. Might 1RR be a better option? Daniel Case (talk) 04:40, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- 1RR would be a decent solution as this is a CTOPs article — Czello (music) 07:09, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
Reason: IP vandalism ongoing, not a suitable article for IP edits at the moment. ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 06:56, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Reason: I eventually come across this page entitled as Sukerchakia Misl but before any further expedition, I immediately figure out an Jassu712 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) who creating the problematic turbulence while allegedly having serious conflict of interest with WP:CASTE and acting like an arrogant individual while oversighting the poor quality source without providing any quotations not at all, look at this issue asap Our Panjāb (talk) 08:07, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- you are the one who creating trouble i already provided more reliable sources then you the only source you have who is gs chhabra you need multiple sources to cross check information it's true or but all you mentioned is self published book or website Jassu712 (talk) 08:09, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Comment:: look at his attention,within the matter of time he gambled the access of extended confirm right to hypothetically breaking the outlaw of Wikipedia Our Panjāb (talk) 08:17, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: look like suspect it self playing the victim card to gain the sympathy from the rest of us but in this case you are exceeding all regulation of Wikipedia, wait for some movement of time before doing such organised way of manipulation Our Panjāb (talk) 08:14, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- you are the one who playing victim let's see who is wrong i already told you to ask neutral point of view but instead you want to do edit war with me go and read "WP:V" you need some knowledge about Wikipedia Jassu712 (talk) 08:16, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- and instead of argue why don't you provide multiple reliable sources? with page number from reputable author's Jassu712 (talk) 08:18, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Repeated edits, mostly by unregistered users, changing his nationality from Russian to Ukrainian without any discussion. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Current requests for reduction in 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.
Reason: Three years ago, this page was extended-confirmed protected due to an edit war. I talked to the protecting admin and stated that there is zero chance for him to unprotect the article. Would consider downgrading the protection to semi. ScarletViolet tc 11:46, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: For some clarification, since I found this to be a little confusing, here's the link to their discussion. Zinnober9 (talk) 18:31, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not unprotected Yes, they may be doing their military service, but ... really? You want us to unprotect the article on the world's most popular boy band, and open it up to editing by one of the world's most toxic fanbases? Hard no, per Jamie. Daniel Case (talk) 06:03, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
Current requests for edits 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.
