Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

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.


Kwame Augustine[edit]

Indefinite create protection: Repeatedly recreated – The article was created by an undisclosed paid editor and was draftified but it was recently moved to the main namespace by a spa after gaining the autoconfirmed status. Since it include paid edits and was created in a violation of WP:PAID this must go through the AfC process. GSS💬 04:49, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Note: Technically it has only been recreated once, if at all, as I can find no deletions....it's more a moving back and forth from main to draftspace. PAID also doesn't forbid users to create pages or modify them, they just need to declare themselves. Lectonar (talk) 06:37, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Andhra Pradesh Council of Ministers[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Speculative portfolios without citations are being heavily added by IPs. Temporary semi protection at-least for 2 days is requested. Thewikizoomer (talk) 09:11, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Doesn't look like they're being reverted. Try that first. Daniel Case (talk) 19:10, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

CSA Steaua București[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent POV-pushing in the conflict who is the real Steaua. The Banner talk 16:06, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Today's burst and then the last one was almost a month ago. Daniel Case (talk) 19:21, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Rampal (spiritual leader)[edit]

Reason: IPs have returned to editing the page to insert unsourced "titles" and other information to the article. — The Hand That Feeds You:Bite 17:32, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will log at CTOPS. Daniel Case (talk) 19:48, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Alphabet Task Force/Popular pages[edit]

Indefinite full protection: Potentially unorthodox request here: I am requesting that this page be fully-protected. Here's the explanation: This page was originally moved to be a subpage of its proper page back in 2019-ish; however, the bot that maintains this page, Community Tech bot, rather than following the redirect to update the live page, overwrote the redirect (the page I'm asking to be fully protected) with the most recent results ... so I recently had to move the pages again (see the edit histories for this page and its target for further information.) For this reason, and in the event the bot operator may not be able to fix this error with its bot in a timely manner, I'm requesting this page be fully protected so the problem ... which occurred 5 years ago and apparently had continued to occur after that until now ... does not occur again. (For the record, I did confirm that Community Tech bot is not flagged as an administrator.) Steel1943 (talk) 19:37, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Steel1943, I think this edit to the config page should fix it, but let me know if the issue returns. (Marking as Declined for the archiving bot.) Extraordinary Writ (talk) 22:17, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

List of Smosh cast members[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Recent surge of IP editing related to social media posts by Smosh staff asking for edits to be made to page, seems to have devolved into minor vandalism. Request temp. protection until it blows over (2 weeks or so). Rambling Rambler (talk) 19:47, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Just your one big revert so far today; last revert was a month or so ago. Daniel Case (talk) 19:59, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Mas Oyama[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – High volume of vandalism and unsourced by IPs including at least one IP hopper. Air on White (talk) 21:36, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:24, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

2024 Chikangawa Dornier 228 crash[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent IP and new user vandalism on this recent incident. Air on White (talk) 21:40, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

D-Chowk (Islamabad)[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalized immediately after protection lifted. Air on White (talk) 21:42, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

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 edits to a protected page[edit]

Request a specific edit 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.


Israel–Hamas war[edit]

At present we have "On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must immediately halt its Rafah offensive.[1]"

I suggest changing it to include a longer, semantically-complete, quotation, to read: "On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel must immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part.[2]"

As the Guardian article points out, and reports judges as arguing, the last comma is critical to the meaning of the ruling. Hunc (talk) 10:49, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

 Done - AquilaFasciata (talk | contribs) 13:09, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
Actually changed to a version which does not give the same meaning as the full text. I hope that you can change:

On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel's military offensive and anything "which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part" must be halted."

to

On 24 May, the International Court of Justice ruled that "Israel must immediately halt its military offensive, and any other action in the Rafah Governorate, which may inflict on the Palestinian group in Gaza conditions of life that could bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part."

The precise grammar, in particular the last comma, is critical to the meaning.

Autopatrolled[edit]

User:VaudevillianScientist[edit]

I have created over 120 articles (over 40 since 2023) on various STEM-related subjects, several of them received thanks from others and very few have so far had issues. My focus is on STEM-related biographies, concepts, or entities, with sufficient reference links. All my new articles are in the English Wikipedia, but I also do minor edits on factual information in other languages. I'm requesting autopatroller rights in the English Wikipedia to reduce the workload of other editors in reviewing my articles. VaudevillianScientist (talk) 12:56, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

@VaudevillianScientist: Most of your articles look good at first glance, but I'm a bit concerned about Institute for Molecular Science. Can you expand on your thought process for that article? It doesn't have any secondary sources. Elli (talk | contribs) 23:29, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for bringing up that article I started. I meant to expand it further, but it requires to establish more entries on notable Japanese researchers first, which the English Wikipedia is lacking in. I have just added a couple external references and improved the entry. VaudevillianScientist (talk) 12:31, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Very good sourced new articles. Very low error rate. Searches in original literature, finds details I never expected to make available for Wikipedia. Creates important, very unique, very useful encyclopaedic articles. Florentyna (talk) 17:47, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Ipscaij[edit]

@Ryan shell has suggested me to request autopatrol rights. I'm often creating simple articles about beetles in English (from the groups I'm personally already familiar with or learning about) and later expanding them if the existing resources allow me to do so. This is to allow other people to find this information and pictures more easily (otherwise it's often scattered on the internet and hard to find). I'm requesting autopatroller rights because I create large batches of articles at once, as Ryan mentioned. I only use reliable sources to provide information for Wikipedia Ipscaij (talk) 09:07, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer[edit]

User:RowanJ LP[edit]

I've created many biographies and have a good understanding of Wikipedia policies. I've fixed vandalism many times and fixed many biography of living persons violations. RowanJ LP (talk) 15:20, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

User:TheNuggeteer[edit]

I participate routinely on both AFD and AFC, I edit routinely, and I have over 1,300 edits. I reverted some edits in my user history. TheNuggeteer (talk) 12:20, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

I'm concerned about this post on your talk page about proper verification of sources from two weeks ago, and I also saw that you posted a nomination to DYK for an article (written by an IP) that had concerns about close paraphrasing. Understanding verifiability and spotting copyright-violating material is necessary for the PCR flag. You also don't seem to have much experience with reverting vandalism, with only three undos in total. The sum of these concerns amount to a  Not done for now, though I suggest you re-apply in a month or two once you have a track record with understanding our content policies and perhaps become more involved with antivandalism. The Night Watch (talk) 19:17, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

User:M S Hassan[edit]

I am requesting Pending Changes Reviewer rights to assist in maintaining the quality of Wikipedia articles. I have been an active editor for almost 3 years, with over 16,000 edits. My contributions reflect a solid understanding of Wikipedia's content policies, including verifiability, neutrality, and no original research. I regularly engage in discussions to improve articles. I am committed to ensuring that pending changes are reviewed promptly and accurately. M S Hassan (talk) 17:25, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Myrealnamm[edit]

Hi there! I'm requesting Pending changes reviewer so I can review changes. I have read Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes and the other pages to read (such as WP:VANDALISM and WP:COPYRIGHT), and I have been fighting vandalism for about 2 months now. Having this user right will help me reduce the number of articles listed at Special:PendingChanges. Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 21:24, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Garsh2[edit]

Good day! I am requesting reviewer rights to extend my ability to patrol recent changes to include recent change protected articles. I have done extensive, recent work fighting vandalism (RCP) and following related policies in doing so (warning users, improving good faith edits with problems, etc). Through this work (and editing), I have gained an extensive understanding of WP:NPOV, WP:BLP, and more. I do not boast a large quantity of edits (most of my older edits were not logged in), but I am convinced that the quality of my edits meets the criteria for this permission. I have created a handful of pages, during which I have come to understand reliable source requirements, original research guidelines, and what is constructive (and what is not). I believe my discussions with other Wikipedians and detailed comments related to unconstructive good faith edits will demonstrate that I am not here to bite the newcomers. I hope I will be permitted to expand my improvements to the English Wikipedia. Thank you for your consideration. Garsh (talk) 22:55, 13 June 2024 (UTC)


Rollback[edit]

User:OnlyNano[edit]

I have met the criteria for requesting access to this tool, and most of my edits to Wikipedia have been reverting and warning. I am very familiar with what constitutes a rollback, and have been using other tools, such as Twinkle and Ultraviolet for a couple months. Looking to get back into Wikipedia, and would love to gain access to this tool. Edit: I should have included that I am interested in switching to AntiVandal, and that is why I am interested in this tool. OnlyNano 19:43, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

 Done Malinaccier (talk) 13:36, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

User:M S Hassan[edit]

I am requesting rollback rights to assist in combating vandalism more efficiently. Over the past several months, I have actively reverted vandalism, I would like to have rollback permissions so that I can revert vandalism faster. I have taken feedback from my previous request seriously and have since ensured to warn users after reverting their edits, including good faith edits. Granting me rollback rights will enable me to help maintain the integrity of Wikipedia more effectively. M S Hassan (talk) 12:02, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 20:47, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
I apologize for not consistently warning editors when reverting their edits. While I was aware of tools like Twinkle and Ultraviolet, I sometimes forgot to use them. I understand the importance of leaving notifications and will ensure to consistently use these tools moving forward. I am committed to improving my communication and adhering to guidelines. Thank you for your understanding. M S Hassan (talk) 22:41, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
Great, please do that going forward. However, I do see that you were recently blocked for edit warring. Please see the notice at the top of this page; successful applicants are expected to have no recent history of edit warring. That said, please spend a few months establishing a track record of positive contributions before reapplying. As such, closing as  Not done. -Fastily 08:32, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your feedback and for considering my request. I understand the importance of having a clean record and will focus on making positive contributions to the community. I appreciate the guidance and will work diligently to avoiding edit warring and ensuring I warn editors after reverting their edits. I will reapply in a few months with a stronger track record. Thank you for your time and consideration. M S Hassan (talk) 10:02, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Totalirus[edit]

Hi. I have been reverting vandalism using UltraViolet for a while (quite a bit last year and getting back into it now), and I meet the criteria for rollback permissions. I would like to have rollback permissions to use Huggle or AntiVandal to revert vandalism faster. Totalirus (talk) 23:23, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I noticed you make a handful of edits, and then drop off for months at a time. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend at least a month consistently patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are always warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 08:29, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for the feedback. I will be sure to take into consideration the tips you have given me. However, would you mind providing a couple examples of when I forgot to warn people? I don't remember forgetting to do so, but I'll be sure to pay more attention to warning in the future. Totalirus (talk) 22:52, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
Sure: 1, 2, 3 -Fastily 00:10, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

User:JFHJr[edit]

I'm active mostly on WP:BLPN and sometimes have to revert problem editors' deeper edits or find the pre-problem version of a BLP manually. I use Twinkle, which has the rollback feature built-in. I've edited responsibly enough over almost 19 years to have never had a sanction or block. Thank you for your consideration. JFHJr () 01:14, 13 June 2024 (UTC) Addendum: my track record of warning editors appears in BLPN archives, though I rarely template user pages especially when there's an active BLPN discussion that would make doing so unhelpful, antagonistic, and redundant. Thanks again! JFHJr () 01:23, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 08:29, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
