Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.

Shortcuts WP:RFPP WP:RFP WP:RPP 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. Skip to table of contents requests to raise protection lower protection requested edits (purge) Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level Request protection Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level Request unprotection 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

User_talk:Alienus (edit | ] | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I request full protection of this user talk page to stop blocked editor Alienus (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · page moves · block user · block log) using it to propagate and expand on the personal attacks for which he has been blocked.

Editor blocked by Will_Beback (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) for numerous personal attacks continues to make personal attacks on his talk page, calling a TM practitioner a cult member, accusing him of malfeasance, duplicity, baiting him, repeating and expanding the cult accusation, attacking two other admins (including myself), defending his attacks, and here, and repeating them. Alienus has a history of edit warring and also personal attacks, particularly on administrators whom he has encountered. --Tony Sidaway 22:38, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Drumaville Consortium (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Semi-protection requested. About three anonymous users have been stubbornly vandalising the article for a while now. ... discospinster _talk 14:32, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Transcendental_Meditation (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Request semi-protection for this article, along with temporary banning of editing by all participants in the recent edit war. I made this proposal on the Talk Page, and there has been no substantive objection, and only one or two peevish objections to it. David 13:01, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

• Semi-protection is used only for vandalism. For edit warring, full protection is required. Do you want full protection? JYolkowski // talk 22:37, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Capitalism (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Semi-protection semi-frequent vandalism by anon IPs and likely sockpuppet activity, which may or may not be connected to RJII (talk · contribs), a shared account which has made over 1,182 edits to the article search capitalism before its indefinate ban around a week ago. 172 | Talk 06:17, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Horacio Elizondo (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Semi-Protection. This page is being vandalised heavily due to two contraversial (some may say bad) refereeing peformances. Both upset Korean and English fans are vandalising this page. It's an obvious target for vandalism. It will recieve a lot more as England fans come home from the pub. Englishrose 19:06, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Iglesia ni Cristo (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Requesting "Semi-Protection" for the Iglesia ni Cristo article. An edit war between editors and proxy IP addesses believed to be emico (talk · contribs) in violation of an ArbCom decision. This edit war has also caused Coffeemaker (talk · contribs) to deliberately disrupt the article by replacing the entire article with this edit.

There is not enough recent activity to justify protection at this time. Just watchlist and revert any vandalism. Voice-of-All 22:28, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Srimad Bhagavatam (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Semi-protection from political, commercial vandalism with false claim of ownership and copyright. Several alternative links to relevant sites have been deleted by O Govinda user. — rpba

That's a redirect with two edits to it. I assume you mean the thing it redirects to? --Lord Deskana 10:36, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Current requests for unprotection

• WP:RFUP
• WP:RFPU

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.

Any edit wars ocurring seem to have been cooled. Unprotecting the page would make things easier.--Nectar 20:13, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

User:Tobias Conradi (edit | ] | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

was semi-protected with the comment "Protected User:Tobias Conradi: IP sockpuppetry"

this violates WP:SPP#When_to_use_semi-protection which requieres vandalism. But there was no vandalism ( WP:VANDAL ) on this page. Hauke 17:56, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Inc. (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Comment: This is not an old case, this is one of the articles that was not unlocked, it needs unlcking so that editors can work on the article. All the other articles under the very same circumstances were unlocked, so, please uinlock this one as well.

This article, and 7 others, were to go through mediation. Mediation has now been rejected, and editors would like to get back to contributing to it. Any or all disputes have settled down. I would like request that it is unprotected and the block on editing is lifted so that progress can be made.

Frater FiatLux 16:39, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

I recently requested the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn article, citing the same reason. The page has been protected for long enough, as disputes have been semi-settled, and arguements have almost completely ceased. Zos 21:04, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Goguryeo (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

The History of China column should be removed from the Goguryeo article. There is no Goguryeo in the History of China column. It shouldn't be there.

Freemasonry (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

There is no reason to have it protected other than to perpetuate the control of the content by a small group of biased masonic editors.Wawanesa 12:18, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

User talk:141.154.236.87 (edit | ] | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I don't get it. Their test messages worked and they block me and my talk page for several days. This is crazy.

• First of all, please sign your remarks with ~~~~. Second of all, you do not own your user page; in this case, the fact that you vandalized and were warned about it should remain for a time until you can prove you're more than a guy who adds "penis" randomly to articles. --Golbez 21:53, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
  • What happened was someone left some kind of "test" message on my talk page. Odd, so I removed it. Then several other "test" messages popped up, I can't remove them from my talk page and I can't edit. I think Misplaced Pages has been hacked.
  • We need to rectify this today.

Current requests for significant edits to a protected page

• WP:RFED

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.

Requesting Semi-Protection for the John Cena article. Nearly daily it has to be reverted from people adding nonsense here and there, mostly anon users. Protecting it for a few days should at least halt them.

Kouta Hirano (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

There's no reason to have it protected as no moving has been going on for a while. Most of the people discussing it (like me, for instance) don't really care which title it's at. Only Bakemono has a strong opinion on the matter, and it's already at the title he wants. ···日本穣 22:51, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Pope Benedict XVI (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

This page has been protected since June 26, 2006, because of one insignificant vandalism and I think it is now the time to unprotect it. --84.146.225.254 14:02, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Several users are asking to add (formerly Calcutta) to the text at the beginning of this article on the main page, to match the page itself, and make this clearer to everyone. These requests are apparently unheard by any administrators. Nfitz Golbez 21:56, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

PlayStation 3 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Requesting semi-protection. Semi-protection was lifted about a day ago - and - vandalism and mindless edits that need to be reverted start again with a vengance - The previous edit 'block' helped a lot:
15th June - 27th June (12 days) approx. 60-70 edits (partial lock) 3rd June - 15 June (12 days) approx 440 edits (no partial lock)

Please add semiprotection again to this article to give the numerous, non-vandalising editors chance to do something without constant harrasment.HappyVR 13:30, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

California State Normal School (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Request Semi-protection due to continued vandalism/deleting of this page. Other of my contributions have been repeatedly vandalized by user NeoChaosX (talk · contribs · count), who may also been responsible for this vandalism. This is an important article about a significant part of California educational history. Michaelch7 02:07, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

• Okay, what? First, semi won't work as NeoChaosX is an established user. NoeChaoX has only redirected it one time, not "repeatedly" as you have stated. He has also backed off - after you resorted the contents, he has not redirected it since. So I don't quite understand your claims of "continued vandalism/deleting" of the page. I also see the complaints regarding the California State University page. NeoChaosX removed the links because he put them in the GoState article where they are more relevent. Discuss it with the user - please don't use page protection as a first resort. Hbdragon88 07:42, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Semi potection please due to numerous minor (non necessarily vandalising) ill thought out edits that need reverting and constant attempts to add blog/new fan site to external links. A lot of these (est. >75%) are by unregistered users. Would certainly make life easier for regular editors. (lot of this happens in the evening)HappyVR 22:13, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
