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.

Misplaced Pages:Introduction (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Full Protection for:
http://en.wikipedia.org/search/ title=Misplaced Pages:Introduction&oldid=56283444 to stop edit warring or severe vandalism; i.e. with a sandbox of it's own the text of the introduction wouldn't keep getting deleted by visitors.--Chuck Marean 16:14, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- The page is partially a sandbox, and should be edited as such. Also, this page is high visibility to new users, so removing the ability to edit may confuse some people. Prodego 17:00, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Battle of Mu'tah (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- Semi-protection A user editing from anonymous IP addresses in the range 212.138.64... dumps loads of unsourced POV material into the article. Reporting the anon for 3RR violation didn't help, as the anonym keeps editing even after the range block. Pecher 14:54, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- The IP seems to have stopped. Relist it here if it continues. Prodego 17:00, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
- The IP has returned as User:Falso. This account must be blocked for 3RR violation. Pecher 18:30, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Current requests for unprotection
If you simply want to make spelling corrections or add information to a protected page that is not disputed, and you are not involved in any disputes there, consider simply adding {{Editprotected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page.
Current requests for significant edits to a protected page
Please demonstrate a good reason for an edit to a protected page. These are only done in exceptional circumstances, or when there is very clear consensus for an edit and continued protection. Please link to the talk page where consensus was reached.
You may also add {{Editprotected}} to the article's talk page if you would like an inconsequential change of some kind made, but note that most of these should simply wait for unprotection.
