Revision as of 21:50, 13 April 2007 by Deskana (talk | contribs) (include reason not to sprotect +cascading)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff) You may view and change the protection level here for the page $1. Be sure that you are following the protection policy and/or semi-protection policy.

By default, protections last indefinitely. To specify an expiry, enter a length of time or an expiration date.

  • Do not use non-integer values, such as "2.37 weeks" or "1.84 days", as these may be incorrectly formatted by the MediaWiki software.
  • Please note, all protections are removed at expiration time, regardless of the prior state of protection.

Do not use the Cascading protection option unless applying FULL protection. Semi-protected pages with cascading protection will full-protect all transcluded pages, essentially allowing any user who can edit semi-protected pages to fully protect pages by including a link to the page on any semi-protected cascading page (see bug 8796).

Note: If this page is protected due to Office Actions, do not unprotect it without proper authorization.
