Wikipedia:Requests for page protection
This page has an administrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators. Please replace this notice with {{no admin backlog}} when the backlog is cleared. |
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 |

- Declined/ Unlike your Thirty-fifth government of Israel request (a specific government), this article almost exclusively deals with the nature and composition of any Israeli cabinet (i.e. structure of ministries, etc.), in general, with no reference to ARBPIA. El_C 20:17, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Dell Latitude E6400 (talk) 14:45, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Edit-warring by Singapore-based IP address, repeatedly adding claims potentially going against WP:SYNTH. hundenvonPG (talk) 16:22, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
- I suggest the admin to look into the page history. The user started edit warring despite we have invited him to the talk page for discussion. We have also added three sources from the government but was intentionally deleted by the user, when you just cited one source which obviously contains incorrect and speculative information. 155.69.183.1 (talk) 16:30, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
- 1. Who started the reverts in the first place? Please see WP:3RR.
- 2. As mentioned, your claims are not supported by any source, yet you have adamantly engaged in edit-warring despite the fact that your claims go against WP:SYNTH.
- 3. Incorrect and speculative, to whom? You? hundenvonPG (talk) 16:40, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
- "intentionally deleted" - an accusation by said IP made in bad faith hundenvonPG (talk) 16:51, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Since protection last lapsed, were back to consistent vandalism. Nswix (talk) 20:26, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Per WP:PIA, this would be covered by ECP. It's seen a lot of activity from IPs and new accounts since its creation—almost all beneficial and in good faith, thankfully. ~. Pbritti (talk) 20:36, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. - FlightTime (open channel) 21:19, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: User:DDKay does not cite sources or references when undoing work of others. This user persists on actively not p[roviding commentary on decisions to reword/remove/undo work of others. Medium-high level of vandalism. KingdomNone91 (talk) 21:23, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
- I did and he wants to ignore what I say. The top 200 on GNTM are semi-finalst. In germany they never call the casting round semi-final, because semi-final is the episode before final. He translate the german atricle literally into english, but that is the problem. The articles say only that they cast 100 men and 100 women for the first episode. They never said, that those big group is the final cast. They always call semi-finalist constetants or cast. That don't mean that those are the final cast. Here an example from season 7. There where chosen 50 girls for semi-final and where also called cast or constetants. https://www.bravo.de/germanys-next-topmodel-2012-das-sind-die-50-kandidatinnen-329333.html Those 50 girls where also not the final cast, only because of that. It was the top 25 who became final cast. It is also a wrong information to show the big list of 200 people as final cast and saying that they are the final cast, when even he don't know. So far it is only a list of 200 people. Prosieben webiste also show pics where some of the 200 people having casting numbers, which means the first episodes are castig episodes, where the 200 people will be reduce to the final cast.

- This article relates to an old season and is not relevant to the current season. This request relates to the 20th season. Thanks. KingdomNone91 (talk) 21:35, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
- I also talked with him before and explained that at him. He told me, he is fine to mark the list as semi-finalst, but change it after that back to final-cast again and again.

Current requests for reduction in protection level
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.
Current requests for edits 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.
