    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.

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Gotitbro (talk) 01:23, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Gotitbro: Could you please clarify which specific recent edits are vandalism? (Other administrators: Please feel free to resolve this request.) Daniel Quinlan (talk) 03:07, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    The page has faced serious WP:CASTE based disruption by multiple IPs (see the recent reverts by different editors and the edits further post that). Gotitbro (talk) 03:39, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Gotitbro: Please link specific edits. To avoid going back and forth on this request, please also explain why each edit is disruptive (e.g., why an edit is caste-related disruption). Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 04:20, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Subh-i-Azal

    Reason: Temporary semi-protection: persistent disruptive editing, uncivil behavior from someone creating multiple accounts and IPs. User:Qalandar303 was blocked indefinitely, IP range 2001:8003:ED8F:EB00:0:0:0:0/64 was blocked for 3 months, and User:CarnelianSun108 was blocked in this sockpuppet investigation. About 24 hours later 101.188.188.160 and the newly created User:John Eternity started making the same edits. I recommend a 1 or 3 month semi-protection.

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
    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.

    Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 04:54, 3 October 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
    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 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.
