* Even though the RfC which prompted this request has closed, I'm leaving this request for unprotection open. I'm doing so because the millisecond the requested page is unprotected, I intend to open a new RfC asking if "First American President to ever be convicted of a felony" should be added as the article's second sentence. Now I'm not saying that outside concerns like this should be the basis for your decision. But I do think they should give you pause and prompt you to think about whether you really want to be a walled garden or not. So admins, I would ask that you either grant my request or permanently block me. Please show us where you stand.] (]) 02:40, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

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.
