    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.

    This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators.
    Please replace this notice with {{no admin backlog}} when the backlog is cleared.

    Current requests for increase in protection level

    Place requests for new or upgrading of article protection, upload protection, or create 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.

    Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action

    Indefinite extended confirmed: Arbitration enforcement – History of disruption related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. While Iran isn't an Arab state, this specific subject (the Iran Nuclear Deal) is deeply steeped in issues relating to Israel and Palestine, to the extent that I believe it meets the "reasonably construed" component of WP:ARBPIA3#500/30, which to my understanding is mandatory.

    This page was also full-protected due to an edit war about a week ago, initially to last until mid-June. The full protection was lifted, I believe because it was interfering with fixes to the article. There has been an instance of vandalism since then as well. —/Mendaliv//Δ's/ 17:25, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

    • I'm having a hard time going there. Does anyone else think that 'reasonably construed' can be stretched to cover this article? Katie 21:08, 31 May 2016 (UTC)
    • Everything seems to be related to everything, especially in the Near-East, but me thinks it would be very far-stretched to see this under the cover of ARBPIA3#500/30. Lectonar (talk) 07:59, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

    Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. — MusikAnimal 02:32, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
    Thank you. Apologize for misunderstanding; will resubmit if issue. (Also, if you look attached Talk page, it isn't exactly preemptive.) Michael Sheflin (talk) 04:54, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

    Pending changes: This is another example of a page where the IP edits are rarely sensible. Previous semi-protection in May 2016 has expired and the nonsense edits have come straight back again.--♦IanMacM♦ 05:34, 2 June 2016 (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.

    Selena

    Unprotection: From semi protection to recent changes. I do not think semi-protection is needed any longer, recent changes will do. 2605:6000:E8DA:8600:98D2:7BB9:FEE3:4F7B (talk) 22:54, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

    Paging Favonian to aisle 2. Katie 02:27, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
    Considering the history of this article, in particular the numerous protections that have been necessary, I cannot support this request. Strictly speaking, the current indefinite semi-protection was put in place by Darkwind (hereby paged) – I merely reinstated it following a short period with full protection. Favonian (talk) 15:30, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
    Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. It's clear from the prior page logs that PC protection was tried in the past and wasn't sufficient to prevent problems. –Darkwind (talk) 00:05, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

    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.
