    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.

    Paper city exile

    Temporary create protection: Repeatedly recreated – Circumnavigation of salted Paper City Exile article. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:42, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

    Creation protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. MelanieN (talk) 16:20, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

    *Automated comment: One or more pages in this request have not been protected.—Talk to my owner:Online 16:32, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

    I don't understand why the bot says this. Both Paper city exile and Paper City Exile display as salted, and I couldn't find any other versions of the name. There is an unrelated redirect at Paper City, maybe that confused the bot? --MelanieN (talk) 00:32, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
    I introduced a bug when I updated the bot. Leave this request be until I can get the bot to recognize the protection again.—Chat:Offline 08:28, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
    Bot has scratched his own comment. Bot has now acknowledged the request and that it is protected.—Chat:Limited Access 11:38, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
    His? Huh, didn't know we assigned Cyberbot I a gender, okay.. Well, I'm thinking he shouldn't be striking through to include the bullet markup, looks a little sloppy. tutterMouse (talk) 13:10, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Axact

    Temporary semi-protection: A high level of vandalism and disruption from various IPs. --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 04:55, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 3 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Deor (talk) 11:47, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Min-maxing

    Temporary Semi-protection: Revert war may begin. Stop it before it starts. --☣Anarchyte☣ 12:18, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Why do you think there might be a revert war? Would think this was the time you took a dispute to the talkpages before it flares up into a revert war. Eitherway, there isn't one right now so it'd be pre-emptive and we don't do those. tutterMouse (talk) 13:13, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
    Declined – This needs a talk page discussion. EdJohnston (talk) 14:44, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Andrew Green (ghost hunter)

    Temporary semi-protection: - two IP editors adding unreferenced information/deliberately misrepresenting an offline source. Have tried to engage both on their talk pages. Have also pinged on the article talk page. No luck. Panyd 12:29, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected – two months. EdJohnston (talk) 12:53, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Shortcuts

    Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on 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: Misplaced Pages: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 Misplaced Pages:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
    • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Misplaced Pages: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.

    Fulfilled/denied requests
