Wikipedia:Requests for page protection

Page semi-protected
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Wikipedia:RPP)
    Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.

    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.

    Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    Request a specific edit to a protected page
    Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

    Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload 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.


    National Rally

    Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. Paul Vaurie (talk) 17:08, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User(s) blocked: The basque savior (talk · contribs) blocked by Daniel Case. for 48 hours. Daniel Case (talk) 18:52, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    IQor

    Pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – IP editor trying to change data by claiming to be Senior Vice President of Marketing and Communications for iQor. See User_talk:199.127.146.33. Agent 007 (talk) 17:38, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Now the the IP has been warned, we'll see if they comply with our policies/guidelines. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 18:20, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Kobbie Mainoo

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Many users keep changing the player's height without providing a reliable source. Official sources say the player's height is 1.75m: [1], [2]. In additon, the article has been protected many times before for this reason. Annh07 (talk) 17:41, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of three weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will also leave CTOPS notice on talk page. Daniel Case (talk) 18:55, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Toby Fox

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism. See protection log. Charcoal feather (talk) 18:08, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User(s) blocked: 52.144.56.29 (talk · contribs). Favonian (talk) 18:48, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Added CTOPS notice to talk page. Daniel Case (talk) 18:59, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Markov chain

    Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Per this discussion at Wikiproject:Math, the IP edit-warring is almost certainly the act of User:MegGutman, blocked for promotional editing. JBL (talk) 19:13, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Checking to see if protection is necessary. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 19:30, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I endorse this request, for whatever that's worth. The edit-warring IP is throwing around accusations of sock/meat-puppetry and self-promotion (see the edit summaries in the history). Frankly, I think we're in "every accusation is a confession" territory here. Oh, and grouping together the IPv4 and the IPv6 (because they use the same language in their summaries), they've crossed the 3RR line.XOR'easter (talk) 19:30, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @JayBeeEll: You may want to file a report at WP:SPI if you have sufficient evidence of sockpuppetry by MegGutman. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 19:40, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Azerbaijani language

    Reason: This page is of significant importance to both Azerbaijani and Iranian Azerbaijanis. Over the last year, the page has been altered, with substantial amounts of information gradually removed. Several IP addresses, whose knowledge of linguistics, standards, and disputes in the field is unclear, have made the most significant changes. These IP addresses are not constant and change daily. Given the tone and nature of the extracted information, it is suspected that the changes are being made by the same or related individuals.

    Questions have arisen regarding why a person making such substantial changes does not have a user account. Even if these actions trigger filters, Wikipedia currently lacks measures to address these individuals. Therefore, I would like to request permanent protection of this page, as well as the, from at least IP address edits. Göycen (talk) 19:27, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Checking to see if protection is necessary. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 19:54, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    There is a lot to unpack here (multiple articles and a block-evading user), but I'm unpacking it. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 20:17, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    User(s) blocked. Logged as enforcement for WP:CT/A-A. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 21:13, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Semi-protected indefinitely. Logged as enforcement for WP:CT/A-A. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 21:13, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Enchanting

    Full-protection: There is a high incidence of vandalism by anonymous users and the dissemination of false information, which are exceedingly detrimental. 2RDD (talk) 19:45, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Bari

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Hit with the same kind of IP-hopper vandalism as Foggia and Province of Foggia. Vif12vf/Tiberius (talk) 20:34, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ymblanter (talk) 21:03, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Chima Moneke

    Reason: High level of vandalism by IPs and newly registered single-use accounts. —ShelfSkewed Talk 21:07, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Dopamine (Normani album)

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Persistent addition of unsourced and/or copyvio content by anonymous editors on newly-released music. livelikemusic (TALK!) 21:16, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Manolis Bikakis

    Reason: Page is riddled by pro-Greek editors who have used only pro-Greek and Greek government sources for the page. Thus i request a protection in case of another wave of these unreliable sources used by the Greeks. Ao192 (talk) 21:23, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at 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.

    Module:Location map/data/Israel binyamin/doc

    Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Documentation subpage should be edited by anyone. Vitaium (talk) 02:22, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

     Comment: Are you sure you're in the right section? - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 06:54, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: The page is currently template protected, so extended confirmed would indeed be a decrease. Favonian (talk) 15:01, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Frietjes: Notifying protecting admin per bright and yellow, yet so easily overlooked, instruction at the top of this section. Favonian (talk) 15:10, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @HJ Mitchell: protected it, I just moved it (not an admin). Frietjes (talk) 15:14, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Pawan Kalyan

    Reason: To update the new information and to update the latest photo of the personality Parzival21 (talk) 17:50, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. Talk:Pawan Kalyan is not protected. Favonian (talk) 17:57, 13 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    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

    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 Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
    • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia: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.

    Im not afraid (talk) 04:21, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I posted an edit request on the talk page there to look at this one. ~Anachronist (talk) 02:06, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Israel–Hamas war

    At present we have "On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must immediately halt its Rafah offensive.[1]"

    I suggest changing it to include a longer, semantically-complete, quotation, to read: "On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.[2]"

    As the Guardian article points out, and reports judges as arguing, the last comma is critical to the meaning of the ruling. Hunc (talk) 10:49, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
