Revision as of 12:33, 7 March 2021

    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



    Current requests for increase in protection level

    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.

    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.

    2024 Nuseirat rescue operation

    Reason: This was a massacre, not a rescue operation. The IDF killed more than 274 innocent civilians according to Aljazeera (https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/6/11/nuseirat-anatomy-of-israels-massacre-in-gaza) and the IDF managed to kill 3 of their hostages in this operation. Therefore, to reduce misinformation, this article needs to be edited to the facts collected by numerous news agencies. The new title should be "2024 Nuseirat Massacre".

    Declined. Articles relating to the Arab–Israeli conflict may only be edited by users with
    extended-confirmed status, that is to say, by users whose accounts have existed for at least 30 days and who have made at least 500 edits. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 10:35, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply

    Change from template editor to extended confirmed: Can someone lower the protection level so that extended confirmed users can edit it as well? I think the current level of protection is a little bit exaggerated. —hueman1 (talk contributions) 01:30, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Talk:Donald Trump

    Please add the following:

    {{rfc|Should the sentence "He is the first and only President to have been impeached twice and to be convicted of a felony." be added after the first sentence?}} 66.69.214.204 (talk) 02:55, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined This is a noticeboard for simple edits and corrections, not yet another venue to demand that a new RfC be opened minutes after the last one was closed with no consensus after thousands of bytes were spent, still less for attempts at bludgeoning discussions by proxy Acroterion (talk) 03:06, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Israel–Hamas war

    At present we have "On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must immediately halt its Rafah offensive.[1]"

    I suggest changing it to include a longer, semantically-complete, quotation, to read: "On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.[2]"

    As the Guardian article points out, and reports judges as arguing, the last comma is critical to the meaning of the ruling. Hunc (talk) 10:49, 12 June 2024 (UTC) Create a level 3 header with a link to the article in question, then a {{pagelinks}} template and then the reason.[reply]
