    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.

    Ant-Man (film)

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Amount of vandalism would probably warrant a 1 to 2 week semi, but given the film comes out July 17, if deciding admin could give the page a month or one month and an extra week or two of protection, that would be greatly appreciated. Favre1fan93 (talk) 05:22, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. — MusikAnimal 16:47, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    2014–15 UEFA Champions League

    Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. MelanieN (talk) 19:06, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Brahmotsavam (film)

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The article was unprotected ten days back. Since then, editing tests have resumed. Thus, i request to semi-protect the article for a reasonably long period. . Pavanjandhyala (talk) 16:10, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. MelanieN (talk) 19:13, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    America's Next Top Model (cycle 22)

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Reverting edits by IP editors without any unreliable sources. ApprenticeFan 23:54, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

    Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. There are multiple confirmed users contributing to the recreated article, implying some disagreement on whether it should be redirected. A discussion should take place first before we shut out the good-faith edits from anonymous users — MusikAnimal 17:39, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Template:National Autonomous University of Mexico

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent target of a sokpuppeteer. Basically, no one is watching it. © Tbhotch (en-2.5). 02:08, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. MelanieN (talk) 19:16, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Antisemitism

    Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – An alternative would be to block the contentious editor who is causing the edit warring.... — Malik Shabazz /Stalk 02:39, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Declined Concerned user has not resumed edit warring since being warned, and is participating in the talk page discussion. If you feel involved I'd report to WP:ANEW should disruption continue — MusikAnimal 17:31, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    2015–16 Arsenal F.C. season

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Transfer mayhem, Chelsea and Arsenal has "agreed" to transfercost but no transfer is done. That does not stop IP's though. Qed237 (talk) 14:48, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    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.

    Plarium

    Unprotection: There's currently a draft up for this article at Draft:Plarium. In order for it to be accepted (if it gets accepted) this'll need unprotecting.

    The page was created 3 times before deletion over the course of ~1 year. I don't think it'll need protecting anymore. --Anarchyte 06:02, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

    @RHaworth: Pinging the protecting admin. --Anarchyte 08:58, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

    Dynamex

    Unprotection: Since the article was initially create-protected in 2007, it is now actually notable as Amazon uses it to fulfill Prime same-day deliveries in the markets where it is available. Gparyani (talk) 19:09, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Further information: Misplaced Pages:Edit requests 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.

    Philip Benedict

    I request that the tags be removed from the teaching section on the ||Philip Benedict|| page. The tags do not correspond to the actual issue of the editors who are adding it -- which is in fact a claim of synthesis, not OR, Coatrack, or Undue Emphasis. They have a problem with a single sentence. They should address that on talk and perhaps add a sentence tag, not three vandalizing tags for the entire section.94.163.176.186 (talk) 07:00, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
