    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.

    Semi-protection. Unsourced material of all kinds is constantly beeing added or re-added by (especially) IPs, and this has been going on for years. I've tryed to remove some many times, e.g. back in May/June last year, and was helped by for instance User:KeltieMartinFan in July/August, but it's hopeless. Dugnad (talk) 05:01, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

    Semi-protect. Persistent level of IP vandalism. Niteshift36 (talk) 22:48, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Support a good long one for this: while the vandalism has intensified over the last day or so, vandalism has been around for some time and it is of quite a nasty nature. --Mkativerata (talk) 22:53, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Template:Columns-list (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

    Indefinite semi-protection, high-use template. There is little need for IP editors and new users to edit this template; though its syntax is fairly simple, it is used on many pages. Intelligentsium 22:37, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Semi-protected. Tiptoety 01:58, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

    Wife selling (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Temporary semi-protection vandalism, Even though this is no longer Today's Featured Article, this is still getting a lot of immature IP vandalism. Andrewlp1991 (talk) 22:23, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 6 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The IP vandalism finally seems to have abated, but I semi-protected it for a little while longer to prevent any further eruptions. --Orlady (talk) 03:12, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

    Yeghishe Arakyal Monastery (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Temporary full protection. Edit war, with one user not addressing issues in the talk page but only repeating his PoV. The current semi-protection doesn't work. Sardur (talk) 21:10, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. SlimVirgin 03:39, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

    Amaras Monastery (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Temporary full protection. Edit war, with one user not addressing issues in the talk page but only repeating his PoV. The current semi-protection doesn't work. Sardur (talk) 21:10, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. SlimVirgin 03:37, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

    Tsitsernavank Monastery (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Temporary full protection. Edit war, with one user not addressing issues in the talk page but only repeating his PoV. Sardur (talk) 21:10, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Fully protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I hope that all participants in the edit war will take their issues to the talk page -- and be civil. The issues are not complex (just highly emotional), so I think one week ought to be long enough. --Orlady (talk) 03:20, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

    Current requests for unprotection

    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

    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.

    Temporary semi-protection, Please, lock this page for short time (2-3 days). Anonymous user changes contemporary portraits with some ugly and many users must revert this. Anon is not communicating and uses proxy, so ban is not solution. Thans . Yopie (talk) 20:07, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Jimmy Swaggart (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

    Semi-protect Beginning in February of 2010, one or more anonymous IP users have been attempting to force the use of File:Swaggart confession screenshot.png into the infobox on this article. There's a number of reasons this is unacceptable usage, and I'd be happy to debate it with someone if they are interested in doing so. However, despite my having started a discussion at Talk:Jimmy_Swaggart#Placement_of_File:Swaggart_confession_screenshot.png, the anon IP user(s) have failed to engage in discussion. Instead, there's been eight attempts to force the image into the infobox, without any rationale as to why . Note that I am not alone in moving the image to the appropriate section rather than in the infobox . --Hammersoft (talk) 18:17, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for six months. The IP campaign seems intended to add an unflattering picture, though our main concern here is copyright, due to placement of a fair-use image in the infobox. The campaign has been going for several months. EdJohnston (talk) 18:29, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
