    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.

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

    Martin Garrix

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. The editor whose username is Z0 13:43, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 14:06, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    @Z0: Note: Looks more like a content dispute. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 14:06, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    2017–18 Iranian protests

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The article 2017–18 Iranian protests has been subject to persistent edit-warring, by both editors and IPs on the issue as to whether these protests are ongoing, or whether new protests are NOT part of the same phenomena. The most recent agreement on talk (several months ago) was that the article is limited to a specific series of protests. Semi-protection would limit the IP element of the edit-warring. Thanks. Pincrete (talk) 15:42, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 15:58, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: Only gave it one week based on protection log. Ping me if that does not suffice.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 15:58, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Pending-changes protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. MelanieN (talk) 21:35, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    List of programs broadcast by Playhouse Disney

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Disruption by IPs and new users, mostly regarding the team he will join. –FlyingAce✈hello 20:36, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Tower of Babel

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IPs and new accounts changing the lede to claim that the myth is an actual explanation of why there are different languages. The article was protected for two weeks, about a month ago, for the same reason, but the disruption is ongoing. bonadea contributions talk 20:37, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Favonian (talk) 20:41, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Module:Infobox/i18n

    Indefinite create protection: High-risk non-existent module. See Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)#Module:Infobox/i18n and Template_talk:Infobox/Archive_14#Redlinked_'Module:Infobox/i18n'. Home Lander (talk) 20:38, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Creation protected Should the referenced issue ever be resolved any admin is welcome to remove or modify without consultation. — xaosflux Talk 20:51, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Marcos Rojo

    Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Kosack (talk) 20:40, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Winnie Harlow

    Semi-protection: Prevent an IP from inserting BLP violating vandalism to perpetuate a smear against the subject of the article. 91.110.126.210 (talk) 21:00, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    List of Little Einsteins episodes

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Repeated socking. Ignores talk requests. Currently blocked through November 2018 (see Talk:List_of_Little_Einsteins_episodes#Refusal_to_communicate) to no effect. I rather suspect this is a CIR issue and the editor in question does not understand their edits are being reverted (each visit is clearly the same editor, but the changes are different each time). Pending changes would likely mean nothing to them. SummerPhDv2.0 21:05, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Indefinite extended confirmed: BLP policy violations. Jibran1998 (talk) 21:22, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations. Home Lander (talk) 21:27, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in 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

    Further information: Wikipedia:Edit requests
    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.
