Try speaking with the admin who locked the page you are requesting first. If the admin failed to answer your request, then the option would be best to ask for this option, because I am autoconfirmed and have the option to edit the page, but the reason why it seems to be locked for non-autoconfirmed users was because people repeatedly decided to evade blocks so they can damage it with what they want. If the administration and/or reviewers cannot handle reviewing edits from new and unregistered users, then the best option for them is to either have the semi protection lock available, or the full protection lock active, but as I am someone who undoes damage to pages, it is best you speak to the "GB fan" user who protected the page if you haven't. If you already have and they failed to answer, you may disregard my comment. ] (]) 10:39, 30 June 2015 (UTC)

    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.

    Current requests for increase in protection level

    Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level Request protection Shortcuts

    Place requests for new or upgrading of article protection, upload protection, or create 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.


    Gurgura

    Reason: vandalism and constant editting/removing content. please protect the page and allow changes to edits with only references Hurso77 (talk) 02:08, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @Hurso77: It is not possible to allow only certain kinds of edits. You should discuss issues on the article talk page. Please ask for assistance at WP:Teahouse. Johnuniq (talk) 07:51, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Gurgura

    Reason: vandalism and disruptive editing/removing of factual text Hurso77 (talk) 02:10, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I will leave a CTOPS notice on the talk page, though. Daniel Case (talk) 07:01, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
    @Daniel Case: Oops. I was coming down and just semi-protected the article for a week, partly as a favor for the requester so they didn't run into an edit-warring problem. Please adjust if wanted. Johnuniq (talk) 07:54, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Protection

    Reason: High level of IP vandalism. Janufff (talk) 02:29, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Pease do not request protection for non English articles here. Heyaaaaalol (talk) 02:35, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
    Can you help us protect ourselves? Janufff (talk) 02:39, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
    @Janufff: English-language Misplaced Pages administrators have zero authority on the Hindi Misplaced Pages. You need to ask at the Hindi Misplaced Pages's equivalent of this page. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v 02:53, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
    I see no signs of vandalism in the page history, but I have nominated it for speedy deletion. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:46, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
    Not done. I see you've now made a request on the Hindi Misplaced Pages's administrators' noticeboard. (There's also hi:विकिपीडिया:पृष्ठ सुरक्षा अनुरोध.) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 06:47, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Jeevitha

    Reason: From August through December 2024, an IP has repeatedly made bad edits and has repeatedly reverted attempts to correct them. Please prevent further IP edits. Thank you. Jellysandwich0 (talk) 03:24, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Yes, there was one disruptive right after the last protection I imposed expired ... in late September. Editing as a whole has been rather minimal since then. Daniel Case (talk) 07:04, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Jelly Roll (singer)

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – repeated vandalism and genre-warring. Ten Pound Hammer • 05:31, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Seems to have died down a few days ago. Daniel Case (talk) 07:05, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    2025 Finalissima

    Pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – Repeated recreation of an article for a future football event that was eventually rescheduled to 2026. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 06:28, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Doesn't seem to have been recreated much since the middle of last year. Daniel Case (talk) 07:07, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Ongoing IP vandalism. SugarRat – t c 07:48, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Johnuniq (talk) 07:56, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Generation

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Addition of unsourced content/vandalism. Sjö (talk) 09:14, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level Request 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.

    Shortcuts

    Ramkripalyadavg

    Reason: Request unprotection We are unable to create an article for this....... . Janufff (talk) 02:45, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    @Janufff: Make a draft for this. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v 02:52, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Show Me series

    Reason: It was recreated same other page article Cardinals vs Royals closed as redirect at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Cardinals–Royals rivalry (3rd nomination) I think this protection is no longer need because no one gonna use this page anymore since is deleted per CSD G4 applies. 173.219.25.75 (talk) 06:15, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Insofar as I can actually grok this request, that isn't an argument for unprotection; in fact repeated deletions (of any sort, not just G4) is grounds for a salting. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v 08:56, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    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 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.

    Example Article Name

    I would like to request that... (The upper range of Bahubali 2's gross is stated as 2500 crore. This is incorrect as only one source mentions it and even there the insinuation is that both part 1 and 2 collectively did this number.) . Darius bactria (talk) 10:20, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
