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.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Protection has recently been removed, vandalism has restarted. Suggest increase length of protection, maybe the vandals will lose interest. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:54, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Unsourced addition and persistent vandalism due to upcoming season of the reality show. C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 09:59, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Reason: Disruptive editing on the title of Shivaji, without discussing it on the talk page. Frequent edit warring and suspecting meatpuppetry. Imperial[AFCND] 10:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Given the number of times this page has bursts of unnecessary edits and vandalism, I think indefinite semi-protection is warranted. I understand these are managable but I (and many others) would prefer we block them permanently rather than go through an endless routine. It would put this page on the same protection level as pages protection, in my humble opinion, for a lot less. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: This page has been vandalised ever since it was created, by both users and IPs, which is why I request extended confirmed protection. Us as the good users cannot keep reverting these edits, as cars are obscure on WP, making them a good target for vandals. Here are some counts of vandalism: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] and there too much more to count, which is why I request extended confirmed protection 750h+ | Talk 16:07, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Subject of a popular YouTube.Still getting unconstructive edits within 1 day of protection being lifted. Classicwiki (talk) If you reply here, please ping me. 22:20, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Reason: Create-protecting the generic form of this name in draft space is not needed, and may interfere with submission of a draft for someone other than the current subject. Multiple forms of the name are already create-protected in article space, and some in draft space also. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
{{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.{{Edit COI}}
template should be used.
