Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here. | ||
---|---|---|
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.

Reason: IP vandalism. 67.230.43.70 ( talk) 02:20, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Reason: Addition of unsourced content and disruptive edits by IP. M S Hassan ( talk | contributions) 04:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This article undergoes constant editing by IP addresses, who are eliminating stuff that is well-referenced. The revisions are not productive. DJ InstaMalik ( talk) 05:05, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent Sockpuppetry. GrabUp - Talk 05:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – WP:LTA/GRP. Mtarch11 ( talk) 05:53, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IPs back to remove mentions of criticism, soon after previous protection ended. Krimuk2.0 ( talk) 06:16, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary pending changes: BLP policy violations – Regular IP edits accusing this LGBT writer of "grooming kids". Belbury ( talk) 07:00, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary pending changes: A passing internet meme from 2022 about a fictional country that people pretended was real. Nearly all IP edits this year have been people removing "fictional" from the first sentence or lead, in the spirit of the joke. Belbury ( talk) 07:05, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. Following the recent controversy, the page has been subject to disruptive editing by multiple IP editors, including mass removal of content and BLP violations. Clog Wolf Howl 08:02, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Protection no longer needed over a decade. 49.150.14.10 ( talk) 08:14, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Unprotection: Has been on pending changes protection for nearly six years, vandalism stopped not long after when temporary semi-protection was applied. No vandalism since the latter expired, so pending changes is hopefully not needed. Chaotic Enby ( talk · contribs) 09:50, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
