Revision as of 02:36, 19 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.

    Puerto Rico TV station articles

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent

    vandalism – Persistent disruptive editing by IPs. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 00:17, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]

    @Mvcg66b3r: Could you please explain to a layman how those edits are vandalism? I don't understand the changes. Anarchyte (talkwork) 11:14, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Anarchyte: The IPs were re-adding the deprecated PSIP field in infoboxes, and also putting MHz besides the ERP. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 11:47, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Mvcg66b3r: Still, that means very little to me. Can you give me a general rundown as to why that's not accurate? Otherwise I can leave this request to someone more knowledgeable in this area. Anarchyte (talkwork) 11:50, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Meyers Leonard

    Semi-protection: Persistent

    vandalism. Donnowin1 (talk) 20:40, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply

    Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Mz7 (talk) 01:59, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Trevor Ariza

    Semi-protection: Persistent

    vandalism. Donnowin1 (talk) 20:52, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]

    Declined. This request for protection was good at the time it was made, but it appears that the issues have now cooled down. Please feel free to request protection again if the issues recur. Mz7 (talk) 02:01, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Nathan Patterson (footballer)

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent

    vandalism – It's the same piece of information that keeps getting changed. I foolishly thought that leaving an explanatory hidden comment (domestic apps/goals only) at the point in question would be enough, but apparently not. The infobox itself already specifies this detail but some people don't read. Benjamin112 (talk) 20:58, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Mz7 (talk) 02:08, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Just to elaborate: I know it's annoying, but because this seems to be happening relatively infrequently, I'm not sure semi-protection is the proportionate response. As an alternative, we could try
    pending changes to get more eyes on the article. Mz7 (talk) 02:12, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]

    Battle of Lumë

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent

    vandalism – The IPs returned the moment semi-protection expired. Amanuensis Balkanicus (talk) 21:33, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply
    ]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. It looks like the previous protection was pending changes, not semi-protection. Mz7 (talk) 02:10, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    The Real Housewives of Atlanta (season 13)

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of

    Kyle Long

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – He is in the news regarding a reported contract with a new team, however, the team has not announced the transaction. Because of the news, IPs are adding the new team on the page. Rockchalk717 23:17, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Already done. Looks like Oshwah protected it for a few hours earlier today, so I'll go ahead and mark this as already done. If the problem recurs, feel free to re-report. Mz7 (talk) 02:19, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    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.
