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 unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level Request unprotection Request a specific edit to a protected page Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here Request edit |

Boyle's law (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Temporary Semi-protect. High level of IP vandalism. I don't know why this article has been recently receiving negative attention but it has been ambushed by vandalism lately. I patrol the Recent Changes page and reverted a vandal and upon reading its history, its been taking a lot of hits lately. Perhaps just a short semi-protect to let the smoke clear. —ASPENSTI—TALK—CONTRIBUTIONS 14:05, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Declined The vandalism is actually pretty infrequent, and in most cases there is only one vandal causing trouble at a time. Dabomb87 (talk) 14:34, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- You're the admin, but 20 of the last 50 edits were vandalism making 40 of the last 50 edits dedicated to vandalism and reverting. Just FYI —ASPENSTI—TALK—CONTRIBUTIONS 15:32, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- I've put the article on my watchlist. If vandalism picks up, I'll be happy to protect it. Alternatively, if another patrolling admin thinks this should be protected now, I have no problem with that. Dabomb87 (talk) 15:43, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- I have no bias for this particular page, I just found that it had been abused lately. Thanks —ASPENSTI—TALK—CONTRIBUTIONS 16:16, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Herpetology (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Temporary full protection vandalism, There was an XKCD webcomic about herpetology today, thus I expect an influx of ill-formed fanboys either attempting to pimp the comic or reference the childish "herp derp" meme. 3 days of protection should suffice for them to find another distraction from their sad, wasted lives. Mokele (talk) 12:36, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Jashodaben Modi (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
full protection dispute, Despite clarifications provided on the connected talk page(s) about the valid references, there has been a sustained attempt at vandalism through edit wars by users Spacemanspiff and one other to try and remove references to Narendra Modi's wife. They have also attempted to get the article on his wife deleted.
This is clear attempt at POV pushing. Suggest suitable protection till matter is resolved on the talk page.
The section (and the connected article) is fully backed by valid references to news articles. Ashlonerider (talk) 11:12, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Dabomb87 (talk) 14:37, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

Current requests for unprotection
ShortcutsBefore 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.
Alan Sugar (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
As I noted on the protecting admin's talk page Alan Sugar was semi-protected over a year ago, for a two-year period. The history from the public logs suggests that two year was too long, so after reviewing WP:SILVERLOCK I'm asking for the semi-protection to end now. Thanks. 67.100.127.36 (talk) 06:31, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Declined. The protection log shows that the article was protected for the majority of 2009, making a two year protection perfectly reasonable for a WP:BLP, given the ineffectiveness of the previous shorter protections. Even during this protection the article was vandalised, strong evidence against the assertion of being able to handle disruption on an unprotected article. Rami R 10:12, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
Current requests for edits to a protected page
ShortcutIdeally, 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. Edit warring by IPs. Since this IP has had edits that are actually constructive, filing a 3RR report is NOT the solution... indeed, I have attempted to open discussion on the talk page, but this IP won't even take the initiative to click on the discussion tab. Semi-protecting will be more likely to force this IP to sit down and discuss absolutely pointless, unexplained changes such as this. And I hope my arch-nemesis does not come charging in here...
