Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level

Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload 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.


Shivaji

Reason: Disruptive editing on the title of Shivaji, without discussing it on the talk page. Frequent edit warring and suspecting meatpuppetry. Imperial [AFCND] 10:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

The article has been under indefinite semi-protection for about five years now. It does not appear to me that going to ECP would make much of a difference as many contributors already have that user right. The only thing I could imagine doing that could force more talk page discussion would be imposing 1RR. Would you be amenable to that? (I have put a long-overdue CTOPS notice on the talk page). Daniel Case ( talk) 20:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Anti-Occupation Bloc

Reason: Israeli-Palestinian conflict related article on a controversial topic Fileyfood500 ( talk) 21:07, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism – This article is getting destroyed by some editors so protect it. Admantine123 ( talk) 12:18, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.— cyberbot I Talk to my owner:Online 12:24, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Never been protected before; extended confirmed protection is only supposed to be used if semi has been ineffective. Bishonen | tålk 12:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya

Indefinite pending changes protection: Addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. Continuous factual errors after previous protection; grade rating falsely keeps being changed to 'A++' by multiple IPs and users despite cited source. Synorem ( talk) 13:01, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

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.

Draft:William Bishop

Reason: Create-protecting the generic form of this name in draft space is not needed, and may interfere with submission of a draft for someone other than the current subject. Multiple forms of the name are already create-protected in article space, and some in draft space also. Robert McClenon ( talk) 14:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Multan

Reason: The protection of article 'Multan' is no longer necessary because articles on other cities of this country (Pakistan) are not protected so whats the need to protect only one city's article ....... . Unleashed something ( talk) 11:51, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. The page is protected because there is a history of disruptive editing to this article. However, you can request an edit in the form of 'change X to Y' on the article talk page, Talk:Multan, which is unprotected. -- Malcolmxl5 ( talk) 14:21, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Vaibhav Palhade

Reason: The page Draft:Vaibhav Palhade is currently protected, but the protection is no longer necessary. The page has been stable for some time and does not require the extra level of protection.Removing the protection will allow editors to freely contribute to the page and keep it up-to-date.The sources available for this person are from recognized Indian media outlets and appear to be notable.I have compared these sources with the current content on the draft page and believe it accurately reflects the available information. I kindly request that the protection on this page be removed so that the community can collaborate on improving and maintaining the content.

Thank you for your consideration. Steelbird1967 ( talk) 12:40, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Declined – The draft is not actually protected, but it will only be moved to article space if it's approved through the articles for creation process. Favonian ( talk) 14:20, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Iran

Reason: Iran's page needs multiple updates and fixings ASAP, some info are getting expired. Please decrease the protection at least for a while so I can improve the page. Farnaj57 ( talk) 13:29, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Same reply as to your previous request, two days ago: the changes can only be done in response to a request at Talk:Iran. Favonian ( talk) 14:16, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

Request a specific to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

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.

My previous application was rejected as I didn't meet the minimum 25 articles requirement, but now I've surpassed that and continue to create more, mainly focusing on film articles and Indian village and town articles. I believe I have sufficient knowledge about WP:GNG, WP:NFILM, WP:NPOL, and more. Therefore, I think I'm now eligible for this right. Thanks. Grabup ( talk) 15:49, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Requests for AutoWikiBrowser access

User:A smart kitten

I'd like to request AWB permissions, in order to be able to make repetitive and non-controversial changes more efficiently than by hand. I sometimes come across situations where this would be beneficial - e.g., a couple of months ago, I noticed that there were a number of featured lists that were only marked as List-Class in {{WikiProject Lists}}. My current reason for requesting is in order to perform cleanup following the closure of this RfD discussion - to migrate the redirects on this list to use {{ R from subtitle alone}}, & to migrate the rest of the transclusions of {{ R from subtitle}} to {{ R from title and subtitle}}. I have read through and understand the AWB Guide & the AWB Rules.

If this request is granted, please can my alt account a smart kitten (AWB) [ verify be added to the checkpage? (Also, as my alt, please can it be granted confirmed and XC in case any pages are protected?)

Let me know if there are any queries. All the best, ‍—‍ a smart kitten[ meow 10:50, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Requests for new page reviewer

New page reviewer

User:Aplucas0703

I have made many constructive edits to Wikipedia, and have a decent amount of experience in Articles for Creation, and I have approved AfC reviewer for nearly 1 year. I have had no controversy thus far while working in this area. I mainly want to focus on patrolling the backlog of redirects, but occasionally I would also review articles. I also know my limits, and only work in the areas I am confident in, or I seek help. I am big on assuming the good faith of editors and pointing them in the right direction if their efforts are misguided, as I often do at AfC. aaronneallucas ( talk) 04:40, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

User:Grabup

I have actively participated in numerous AFD discussions and have also initiated several. My experience primarily revolves around Indian Film articles, where I've created many articles. I also have dealt with issues such as paid and spammy citations with Admin “Kuru”. While I currently review new articles from the 'New pages feed,' I lack the authority to accept them. However, I regularly tag articles for speedy deletion when they meet the criteria, resulting in their removal. I'm now requesting a one-month trial for the New Page reviewer right. If my contributions are deemed beneficial, I hope to continue, but if not, I understand and am willing to relinquish the right after the trial period. Grabup ( talk) 06:54, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

I was granted new page reviewer rights temporarily and I think that I'm ready to get them permanently since I've tagged and patroled over 50 pages now.

Hi. I generally rotate between different maintenance activities such as RC patrol, pending changes patrol, and edit request patrol, and would like to contribute to the NPP/AFC queues too. Editing Wikipedia for 15 years, but with long bouts of low activity or inactivity, but I feel I have a strong grasp on the core policies (especially copyright-related). Despite focusing on maintenance mainly, I have created/significantly contributed to few articles, most recently XZ Utils backdoor ( permalink when moved from draft to mainspace) and BG3.

I regularly create pages and want to save others time from reveiwing pages created by me, in addition to that I would be able to help with the backlog. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 00:22, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

@ SheriffIsInTown: To be clear, the NPR permission does not assist with review of your own pages. If you want to "save others time from reviewing pages created by me", then you would want to request autopatrolled at WP:PERM/AP. Hey man im josh ( talk) 16:39, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Hello. I would like to request NPP rights to help review newly-created articles and lower the backlog. To start, I have over 5500 edits on en.wiki, with over 1500 in the mainspace. I also have moderate experience in the article creation process, being a AfC reviewer and having created several articles. I also have experience in the deletion process, having tagged lots of pages for CSD (and later having most of them deleted) and participating in AfD. If the NPP right is granted, I will start carefully patrolling the NewPagesFeed and contributing to the reviewing process. Thank you for considering my request!

Hi and thanks for looking. I'do love to volunteer in patrolling recent changes as well as other aspect of vandalism.

 Not done You've barely made any reverts since I declined your previous request. As I said, please spend a month patrolling RecentChanges before making a new request. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits (I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy). - Fastily 08:19, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Shivaji

    Reason: Disruptive editing on the title of Shivaji, without discussing it on the talk page. Frequent edit warring and suspecting meatpuppetry. Imperial [AFCND] 10:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

    The article has been under indefinite semi-protection for about five years now. It does not appear to me that going to ECP would make much of a difference as many contributors already have that user right. The only thing I could imagine doing that could force more talk page discussion would be imposing 1RR. Would you be amenable to that? (I have put a long-overdue CTOPS notice on the talk page).

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Never been protected before; extended confirmed protection is only supposed to be used if semi has been ineffective. Bishonen | tålk 12:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Guru Ghasidas Vishwavidyalaya

    Indefinite pending changes protection: Addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. Continuous factual errors after previous protection; grade rating falsely keeps being changed to 'A++' by multiple IPs and users despite cited source. Synorem ( talk) 13:01, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    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.

    Draft:William Bishop

    Reason: Create-protecting the generic form of this name in draft space is not needed, and may interfere with submission of a draft for someone other than the current subject. Multiple forms of the name are already create-protected in article space, and some in draft space also. Robert McClenon ( talk) 14:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

    Multan

    Reason: The protection of article 'Multan' is no longer necessary because articles on other cities of this country (Pakistan) are not protected so whats the need to protect only one city's article ....... . Unleashed something ( talk) 11:51, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. The page is protected because there is a history of disruptive editing to this article. However, you can request an edit in the form of 'change X to Y' on the article talk page, Talk:Multan, which is unprotected. -- Malcolmxl5 ( talk) 14:21, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Draft:Vaibhav Palhade

    Reason: The page Draft:Vaibhav Palhade is currently protected, but the protection is no longer necessary. The page has been stable for some time and does not require the extra level of protection.Removing the protection will allow editors to freely contribute to the page and keep it up-to-date.The sources available for this person are from recognized Indian media outlets and appear to be notable.I have compared these sources with the current content on the draft page and believe it accurately reflects the available information. I kindly request that the protection on this page be removed so that the community can collaborate on improving and maintaining the content.

    Thank you for your consideration. Steelbird1967 ( talk) 12:40, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Declined – The draft is not actually protected, but it will only be moved to article space if it's approved through the articles for creation process. Favonian ( talk) 14:20, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Iran

    Reason: Iran's page needs multiple updates and fixings ASAP, some info are getting expired. Please decrease the protection at least for a while so I can improve the page. Farnaj57 ( talk) 13:29, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Declined – Same reply as to your previous request, two days ago: the changes can only be done in response to a request at Talk:Iran. Favonian ( talk) 14:16, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Request a specific to a protected page
    Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

    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.

    User:A smart kitten

    I'd like to request AWB permissions, in order to be able to make repetitive and non-controversial changes more efficiently than by hand. I sometimes come across situations where this would be beneficial - e.g., a couple of months ago, I noticed that there were a number of featured lists that were only marked as List-Class in {{WikiProject Lists}}. My current reason for requesting is in order to perform cleanup following the closure of this RfD discussion - to migrate the redirects on this list to use {{ R from subtitle alone}}, & to migrate the rest of the transclusions of {{ R from subtitle}} to {{ R from title and subtitle}}. I have read through and understand the AWB Guide & the AWB Rules.

    If this request is granted, please can my alt account a smart kitten (AWB) [ verify be added to the checkpage? (Also, as my alt, please can it be granted confirmed and XC in case any pages are protected?)

    Let me know if there are any queries. All the best, ‍—‍ a smart kitten[ meow 10:50, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

    New page reviewer

    User:Aplucas0703

    I have made many constructive edits to Wikipedia, and have a decent amount of experience in Articles for Creation, and I have approved AfC reviewer for nearly 1 year. I have had no controversy thus far while working in this area. I mainly want to focus on patrolling the backlog of redirects, but occasionally I would also review articles. I also know my limits, and only work in the areas I am confident in, or I seek help. I am big on assuming the good faith of editors and pointing them in the right direction if their efforts are misguided, as I often do at AfC. aaronneallucas ( talk) 04:40, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

    User:Grabup

    I have actively participated in numerous AFD discussions and have also initiated several. My experience primarily revolves around Indian Film articles, where I've created many articles. I also have dealt with issues such as paid and spammy citations with Admin “Kuru”. While I currently review new articles from the 'New pages feed,' I lack the authority to accept them. However, I regularly tag articles for speedy deletion when they meet the criteria, resulting in their removal. I'm now requesting a one-month trial for the New Page reviewer right. If my contributions are deemed beneficial, I hope to continue, but if not, I understand and am willing to relinquish the right after the trial period. Grabup ( talk) 06:54, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

    I was granted new page reviewer rights temporarily and I think that I'm ready to get them permanently since I've tagged and patroled over 50 pages now.

    Hi. I generally rotate between different maintenance activities such as RC patrol, pending changes patrol, and edit request patrol, and would like to contribute to the NPP/AFC queues too. Editing Wikipedia for 15 years, but with long bouts of low activity or inactivity, but I feel I have a strong grasp on the core policies (especially copyright-related). Despite focusing on maintenance mainly, I have created/significantly contributed to few articles, most recently XZ Utils backdoor ( permalink when moved from draft to mainspace) and BG3.

    @ SheriffIsInTown: To be clear, the NPR permission does not assist with review of your own pages. If you want to "save others time from reviewing pages created by me", then you would want to request autopatrolled at WP:PERM/AP. Hey man im josh ( talk) 16:39, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

    Hello. I would like to request NPP rights to help review newly-created articles and lower the backlog. To start, I have over 5500 edits on en.wiki, with over 1500 in the mainspace. I also have moderate experience in the article creation process, being a AfC reviewer and having created several articles. I also have experience in the deletion process, having tagged lots of pages for CSD (and later having most of them deleted) and participating in AfD. If the NPP right is granted, I will start carefully patrolling the NewPagesFeed and contributing to the reviewing process. Thank you for considering my request!

     Not done You've barely made any reverts since I declined your previous request. As I said, please spend a month patrolling RecentChanges before making a new request. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits (I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy). - Fastily 08:19, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
