    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


    Requesting Protection

    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.

      Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. - once a week isnt sufficient for protection just revert, warn user Gnangarra 15:55, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Talk:John Lott (edit | article | history | links | watch | logs)

      Semi-Protect Persistent anonymous vandalism of the NPOV section of the talk page by what appears to be a spambot using open proxy accounts. (See the individual diffs for a few of the edits). --A. B. (talk) 15:33, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Declined - only once a day just revert or ignore, not sufficient volume to protect a talk page, Gnangarra 15:52, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      OK, well by my count that's 259 vandalistic edits by 249 different IPs to the NPOV section, most of them probably open proxies, since 26 January. Each one leaves a ton of spam, much of it to porn sites, some of it promising teen porn. That's 259 reversions made by other editors. Sure seems like a waste to just let this go on and on. --A. B. (talk) 16:14, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Correction -- my counting algorithm was wrong: 105 vandalistic edits by 94 anon IPs. Still seems like a waste. --A. B. (talk) 16:29, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Semi-protected due to heavy vandalism. Nishkid64 15:19, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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

      I am renewing my request for semi-protection for Kofi Annan. This article has been a magnet for vandalism for months. I anticipated that his parting remarks as UN Sec. Gen. would spur the anonymous vandals to come out of the woodwork -- and did they ever! Cgingold 13:02, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      I second this request, which I was about to make myself. The page is being constantly vandalised, either with nonsense or with offensive remarks -- at least a dozen time already today, and we're only half-way through it. RolandR 13:07, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Semi-protected IP vandalism/nonsense Gnangarra 13:17, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Article linked to main page will remove when editors fix problems from IP. Gnangarra 14:17, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Unprotected main page, editors appear to have fixed problems Gnangarra 14:40, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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

      Semi-Protect: The page is a a frequent target of utterly random IP vandalism, entirely (thus far) of the form "ALBINOES LOOK FUNNIE!!!" or "YEAH, JOE BLOGGS IN MY SCHOOL, HE PALE AS A GHOST" and the like; it's all school chumps engaging in wanton albino bias and getting very annoying. I have to revert this junk on an almost daily basis. It's very offensive, equivalent to racist slurs, and cannot possibly be stopped without permanent semi-protection — every high school, etc., with a single albinistic student will eventually generate vandalism of this sort. Non-vandal IP edits to the article are practically non-existent. Blocking is not an option; it's clearly organizational IPs, and there's a near-infinite number of them. This is an A-rated article that is slated for CD ver. 1.0, and needs the protection. Lastly, I posted on the Talk:Albinism page about doing this semi-protect, and explained very clearly why it could be controversial, and there wasn't any controversy, after weeks. PS: That I recall, it's never been vandalized by a non-IP user. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 12:42, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection., IP warned report IP at WP:AIV if repeats edits. Gnangarra 13:09, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Respectfully, have you looked at the edit history? I'm not complaining about a specific IP address — the "hit and run" one you just warned is just the latest, and unlikely to pop up again any time soon (the warning is all but meaningless; it's a school, i.e. multiple random users). But another 5 different ones will pop up next week. Rather, there is near-daily (sometimes multiple times daily, on bad days) vandalism of this page by random middle-school kids at IP addresses, all over the US if not the world (I haven't done ARIN lookups; these IPs could be coming from multiple countries for all I know; in fact, I'm pretty sure I saw a British one the other day.) Not seeking temporary semi-protection from an IP vandal; seeking indefinite semi-protection from a never-ending and daily-changing stream of IP vandals. Unless some magic wand makes prejudice against people with albinism go away, this page will continue to be puerilely (and WP:LIBEL-violatingly) vandalized every other day without the semi-protection; around half of the vandalism names specific people (most of them almost certainly minors) as being X, Y or Z (insert something offensive) because they are albinistic. I seem to be the only one regularly rvv'ing in this spot. And I'm about to go on wikibreak (RL vacation) for 2+ weeks. The state of this article is likely to be utterly shameful by the time I return some time in Jan. '07. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 13:56, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      PS: See the Kofi Annan case above. There are probably 15x more vandals per week against that article. But there probably 100x more watchers. Proportionally, the vandalism vs. antivandal situation is far worse for Albinism. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 13:59, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Semi-protected - frequently taking 3hours + to revert vandalism Gnangarra 14:23, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Salt. Deleted thrice, two times in the same day. ~Crazytales56297 | t+c 12:04, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Fully protected salted Gnangarra 13:20, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Southwestern University School of Law (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

      Full-Protect. The Southwestern University School of Law article has been under a low-scale, but rather continuous revert war between an IP and a couple of registered users (basically over a single paragraph} for the past several weeks. I think that if they all had a short time-out on editing the article and I could get them to discuss matters on the article's talk page, things could probably be cleared up. BlankVerse 11:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Fully protected - content dispute Gnangarra 13:25, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      20th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Estonian) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

      Semi-Protect: repeatedly vandalized by various IP's (71.133.246.228 was blocked for 3RR, then vandal used 69.107.250.52). Article has been vandalized 12 times in last four days. DLX 09:23, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Semi-protected multiple IP vandalism Gnangarra 13:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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

      Semi-Protect: Lots of IP vandalism, adding what seems to be nonsense. It's also not a much-noticed article, so the vandalism has gone uncorrected for long periods. Dkostic 08:54, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      There is not enough recent activity to justify protection at this time. Just watchlist and revert any vandalism. Nishkid64 15:20, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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

      Semi-Protect: There have been many edits by anonymous users relating Meat (the food), to a slang word for penis. Just look at the history and you'll see... Chrisch 04:59, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. - just report such editors at WP:AIV, Gnangarra 15:49, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Neuro-linguistic programming (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

      Protect: In the last week there has been a number of reverts. Reverts against consensus by AlanBarnet (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) have continued. Previous weeks had seen many changes with some reverts. I am concerned that the page could slip into an unstable state that existed before the arbcom case and subsequent mentorships. I think it would be useful to protect the page for a week to allow editors to cool down and work together resolve the outstanding issues. --Comaze 07:29, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Declined - editors are discussing issues, I see nothing to warrant blocking the page at the moment Gnangarra 15:46, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      List of countries by GDP estimates for 2007 (nominal) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

      Semi-Protect: An anon-IP (it appears to be one) has been stubbornly adding a value to the table only to be reverted again and again by me and other users. Attempts to communicate to the user wouldn't work as it appears that they do not have a static IP or a user account. Semi-Protecting would require this user to register an account which can be communicated to, or at least have them stop and look at the talk page. --Colonel Cow 03:08, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Semi-protected - roving IP needs to discuss changes first Gnangarra 15:38, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

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

      Semi-Protect: The User:Leyasu has been completely banned from editing on wikipedia but still persists in doing so through anonymous IPs. The user does not even bother to deny being Leyasu, as evident on the talk page of both the article and my user page. The user has continued to edit numerous articles through the use of such ip addresses as the ones listed below. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.152.216.25 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.153.41.223 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.155.146.226 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.157.66.36 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.157.91.34 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.153.143.33 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.157.80.240 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.153.44.28 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.157.68.251 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.153.40.247 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/81.156.159.73 Other articles that this banned user has been actively editing includes Symphonic Metal, Gothic Metal, Diabolique (band), Paradise Lost (band) and Tiamat (band). I do not wish to get into an edit war and a revert war with this infamous character and I do not see why I should have to when the user has already been completely and utterly banned from editing on wikipedia in its entirety. --Anarchodin 02:20, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Current requests for unprotection

      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.

      Current requests for significant edits to a protected page

      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.

      recent vandalism and bizarre photos added has meant the article is protected. Requesting un-protection for my reasons given at bottom of talk page ( lack of context in the central, now shortened history section). There was no dispute over content leading to its removal, just a suggestion of replication which I've discussed on the talk page.

      Protect: Over the last several days, a section title on this article has undergone a rather large number of reverts. I've placed a list of 38 changes to this section title since 6 December 2006 at Talk:Collapse_of_the_World_Trade_Center#Summary_of_recent_reverting_over_the_title_of_a_section. Despite my pleas to iron this out on the talk page, and my caution that I would request protection, the reverting continues apace with no sign of stopping. Since I have been involved, I decline to use my admin abilities to intervene and am thus placing my request here. Protection should last until all parties finally resolve the dispute on the talk page of the article. --Durin 21:24, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Semi-Protect:Subject to frequent vandalism by a range of IPs. Sometimes the vandals follow so closly that a reversion of one piece only goes back to an earlier vandalised version.

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

      Semi-Protect: This page has become a recurring target of anon vandalism from changing IPs. Only anons are editing the page at the moment, and except possibly one good-faith edit, the rest are vandalism or a revert of same. In some cases, an editor accidentally reverts one vandalised version to another, and the page history is getting hopeless. Semi-protection might give it a break.

      There is not enough recent activity to justify protection at this time. Just watchlist and revert any vandalism. Nishkid64 02:30, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Semi-protect. Rampant anon IP vandalism over the last few days. -- weirdoactor t|c -- 15:36, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Semi-protected I thought this was borderline, but I'm concerned at how often the sales figures are being changed by anons, as it's tough to distinguish that sort of vandalism from real edits. | Mr. Darcy talk 16:18, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      It was protected in an unfair manner by User:Khoikhoi. You can see hisotry page. Just twenty minutes after POV Pushing by User:Khodavand the page was protected. The problem is that no one requested him to protect that page and he calims that he is not interested in those articles[1]. As Mohammad Ali Najafi is one of the candidates in friday election in Iran I want you to unprotect this page so I can put the Image I have taken today in Sharif University. Even I think an admin should consider WP:BLP before protecting a page. Failing to do something is different from quitting that. Hessam 18:25, 10 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

      Admins always protect the m:The Wrong Version, if you think the current version violated WP:BLP please contact the protecting admin. --WinHunter (talk) 05:20, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      Protecting admin is helping others to push POV. You can see his block log in Iran related articles and this this request for artbitration. Even those pages are protected in less than 20 minutes after last POV Pushing by User:Khodavand somedays after his request. As it happened in protecting 4 or 5 pages I'm sure it's not an accident. Even you know better than me that m:Protected pages considered harmful and he protected 4 or 5 pages in less than 5 minute without any investigation on what's going on to them. There are more than thousands admin here to not let others push POV and abuse administrative power. I'm waiting for your answer. Hessam 08:02, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
