Revision as of 08:15, 17 April 2007

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.

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

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

semi-protection This article is routinely subject to vandalism by new users and IP users. This has been going on for some time now. Due to this frequent vandalism and due to the strong opinions some people have about the subject of this biographical article, I think semi-protection for the forseeable would be appropriate. --MatthewUND^(talk) 06:13, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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

full protection Long and steady reverting by user 66... coupled w/refusal to engage in discussion or respect 3rd opinions or accept any part of prior edits. As to denial by ALison b/c " edit war & anon user is giving detailed rationale on the talk page (as yet unanswered) - I am the anon user and it is 66 who is reverting STILL and who hasn't replied on the talk (as anon, my # changes) 4.231.242.90 06:00, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Current requests for unprotection

Shortcuts

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.

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

unprotect.

Extreme bias is (unexpectedly) present here, the registered community will obviously have a bias towards Wikipedia, unprotection is the only way to prevent this. LaudanumCoda 03:50, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Declined - see [1]. It's been repeatedly tried but never works - Alison^☺ 04:31, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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

I think that I am the reason of having protected this entry. In the section Incidents, I added an incident that could have taken more than 138 lifes. I also put, as a proof, a picture taken by one of the passengers. I was one of those, so as I proof there was also my testimony. During take off, April 5, 2007, in flight 265 from MEX (Mexico City Airport), pilot made a blunder maneuver and drove the plane to a mud, instead of taking off from 05R runway. Left turbine was close to crash to a concrete block (may be it touched lightly), and if this were happened, me and my fiance were have died, because we were at seat 6-B and 6-C, just aside of the left turbine. THIS FACT IS AN INCIDENT, IT HAS TWO PROOFS (My testimony and a picture), but it affects Copa Airlines image (they just cancel the flight, with no explanation, no compensation, and reasigned us in different flights to our destinations). So, some one deleted why I wrote and it does not even appear as a history of the entry. If this entry remains protected, at least I want the history of this edition COMPLETE, with the picture. And anyone will take his/her decision of flying with Copa. Thanks Robertoremes 04:05, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Declined - it's only been protected a few days ago due to sock-puppetry by User:Cpzphantom. - Alison^☺ 04:33, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Virginia Tech shootings (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Unprotect. Sprotected to pre-empt vandalism, which isn't policy -Halo 18:56, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Comment according to this section a few sections up, it was protected due to heavy vandalism, not the potential for heavy vandalism. In other words, the vandalism was happening and it wasn't a protection to prevent the possibility for vandalism. Metros232 19:01, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment I was editing the article - there was 1 lot of vandalism for around 15-20 genuine edits. Therefore it was either done incorrectly, or it was designed to pre-empt vandalism (since "it's a new article"). Check the edit history -Halo 19:13, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Declined The talkpage has now had to be semi-protected to avoid people posting names and personal details of alleged shooters. Unprotecting the article would leave it open to the same problem. WjBscribe 22:03, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unprotect. Talk:Virginia_Tech_shootings. Now no one who is unregistered is permitted to discuss the topic. This seems to be violative of the fundamental principles of Wikipedia. Rooot 23:18, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unprotect I strongly agree with Rooot. This quick-trigger to protect articles and the talk space when they are most in demand is getting out of control. Tfine80 04:24, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Declined per above. – Steel 23:19, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Current requests for significant edits to a protected page

Shortcut

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 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.

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

The Page contains baseless allegations about the organisation and is protected so that no one can remove those blatant lies. Some users like Swadhyayee,etc. have hijacked the page and do not allow even to post the fact supportd by link to the national news paper Indian Express that Mr. Bharat Bhatt has been relived on bail by Gujarat High Court citing "Prima Facie" he does not appear to be involved in the murder case. The present protected page is not at all reflective of NPOV. The best thing is to have the page with facts and philosphy and practice of the organsiation and have a seprate page for controversies. To do this, it requires a major edit before all the bias is removed and it is protected again. --[[User: Hemendra|Hemendra]] 23:35, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Virginia Tech shootings (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I noticed that in the article there is no mention of the chains that were on the doors on at least two doors at Norris Hall. I believe that this is of great signifigance, for the gunman may have had to go elsewhere to get these chains and locks. If this was so, perhaps the Norris Hall shootings weren't apart of the original plan. It also rules in the possibility of a second gunman, or at least supports it more.
