Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level

Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level
Shortcuts

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.


Opinion polling for the next Israeli legislative election

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – WP:ARBPIA. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 10:11, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 22:01, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Heretic (film)

Reason: The Plot section of the film is bombarded with people constantly adding extraneous details and attempts to define purposefully ambiguous moments in the film. There has been a back-and-forth over the plot for over a month now that isn't calming. Can you lock it for a short span until people have cooled off, maybe? 194.74.175.114 (talk) 13:06, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

It would require a full lock, since there are EC editors adding to the plot. I'd prefer if someone attempted to create a topic at the talk page to discuss the issue before issuing full protection. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 13:10, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent vandalism - seasonal problem. Entranced98 (talk) 16:46, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Youssoufa Moukoko

Reason: Lots of edits of his date of birth due to still unconfirmed claims by Joseph Moukoko who has been know as his father but now states that he isn't and that his date of birth actually was four years earlier RyokunDE (talk) 21:17, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

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 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.

Urdu

Reason:Article is in a poorly written state and barely gets meaningful contributions since it was last protected. No signs of disruptive editing for a long time either.Axedd (talk) 14:45, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

@Axedd: Is the long-term abuser that caused the article to be ECP'd still active on other articles? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:46, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
Last time this specific user was active was 4 years ago according to his case page. I believe another sock caused this page to locked over an year ago for edit warring, but they weren't solely interested in this particular page. Axedd (talk) 16:52, 6 December 2024 (UTC)
The case page is not a reliable indicator of if an LTA is active or not, especially if they're reveling in the attention. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 08:28, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
Pinging @Yamaguchi先生 --Ahecht (TALK
PAGE) 20:18, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
Thank you Axedd for being in touch and Jéské for the ping. Axedd, you are already able to edit this article in the currently protected state. For context, there have been over 18 different page protections applied over the years due to long term abuse, block evasion, and persistent disruption in general. In light of this, was there any specific reason that you're looking to see this page unprotected? Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 23:34, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Metaverse

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because i believe that the metaverse is now less associated with crypto and the blockchain - especially after the rise of spatial computing. 67.209.128.24 (talk) 15:46, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Suggested action: Lower to WP:WHITELOCK/WP:PCPP to prevent disruptive editing from cryptospammers while still allowing for broader contribution from legitimate editors (especially IPs like me). Otherwise, if no cryptospam is expected, remove protection completely. 67.209.128.24 (talk) 15:51, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

I'll have to disagree. Just look at the page history. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 05:28, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
I looked at the page history and the deleted contributions prior to making this request. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 02:05, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
Still. If there was a need to even delete contributions from the page history to begin with, it should remain fully locked. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 18:54, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: The season is completed. 2A02:C7C:A01:3E00:6416:9E81:7DAB:2ECD (talk) 13:07, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

The protection expires in less than two weeks. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:45, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page.. No valid reason given to remove protection, and it isn't permanent anyway. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:52, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Edith Flagg

Reason: The page was protected due to BLP, and is still protected for that reason despite Flagg dying in 2014. 100.7.34.111 (talk) 12:42, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. It wasn't protected due to BLP, it was protected for persistent spamming, peacocking, unsourced assertions, and unjustified removal of tags. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:55, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
Then why does the pagelock say it was protected to promote compliance with BLP? If the page is to stay protected, the protection reason should at least be changed. 100.7.34.111 (talk) 22:42, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

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.

Template:IPA pulmonic consonants/table

This, I think, is the first time I've made a suggestion. Hopefully, I'm doing this correctly.

The lateral fricative voiced retroflex, as an example, has an IPA representation of ɖɭ˔ according to its Wikipedia page, but the IPA Pulmonic table and other tables use the Unicode representation in the table and any font I have found just doesn't handle that character,

Would it be better to use the IPA representation which I think many fonts handle since the table has 'IPA' in its title and its link points to the Wikipedia page with both representations? The linked article each cell in the table states that the representation the IPA version and that the Unicode character is implied from that.

I'd be happy to make a list of each table and cell where this occurs if that is necessary and you think these will be worthwhile changes. BLWBebopKid (talk) 19:51, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Pinging @Kwamikagami as they are likely to have some insight to these issues. For me personally, I'm not sure. I happen to have fonts installed that handle the extIPA symbols, but I'm in the stark minority there. Remsense ‥ 论 01:46, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
ExtIPA is IPA. It's just a specialized subset. For example, extIPA can be used in the 'Illustrations of the IPA' published in JIPA.
The issue is one of font support. The letters in question date to 2015, though they weren't added to Unicode until 2021. There are websites that list fonts that support various characters. These are supported by the SIL fonts, which are the best free IPA fonts available. If you don't have a good font installed, you're not going to be able to view IPA correctly anyway. That's why we have the IPA notice in articles, that you may need to install an IPA font to view the article properly. — kwami (talk) 05:32, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

User:Pbritti told me to. Apparently I qualify, and I've been cranking out a decent number of articled recently. Been editing Wikipedia on and off since 2009, been editing more regularly for the last year or two. Been a rollbacker and pending changes reviewer for almost 12 years. I created one GA and have taken two articles from being just a few sentences to GA status, a few more nominations in the pipeline. ~Darth StabroTalk • Contribs 02:51, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I am re-requesting AWB perms. It was last denied because I had shown zero need for it but this time, I think I do have a reason.

I had recently created Niagara (electoral district) and Middlesex North from a (redirect) to a Disambiguation page, and it has links. I would like to use AWB to update the links, and make it point to the right pages. I'm thinking there could be more "redirect-to-disambigaution" pages that would need updating links.

Vulcan would like to be able to rename files and to help others in doing so. Already have similar role in Commons. Vulcan❯❯❯Sphere! 04:21, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

 Comment: I just declined ~15 of the requests made by the requestor because they do not meet our local requirements to be eligible for renaming. Among the worst offenders were File:Snowfall.gif and File:New Scientist.jpg; neither are completely meaningless, thus they do clearly do not meet WP:FNC#2. I imagine our criteria differs from commons, as I am unfamiliar with their system there. I would recommend that the candidate be asked to take some more time and demonstrate a better understanding of local file renaming procedure before granting a request here. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 20:15, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
Oppose as Godsy says, and given the note that I left them on the talk-page. I'd advise them to gain more experience in the area, and contribute elsewhere? Additionally, most of their rename requests recently were out of the question, here and both per Commons (adding this as Godsy said, they aren't aware of how file renaming works on Commons). ─ Aafī on Mobile (talk) 22:23, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

User:MolecularPilot

Hi! I'd love to help out with the backlog. I have around ~40 AfD !votes, and I'm usually one of the first votes and always use strong guideline-backed reasoning. I've only had 1 AfD in the "red" cell of AfD Stats, that was a bio of a person from a non-English speaking country, and I tried to find sources in my WP:BEFORE, but nothing come up, and then another user more familiar with that country was able to dig something up so I withdrew (I don't think it should count as a black mark against me). I've also reviewed a lot of AfC submissions (a good amount of them sadly don't show in the AfC tool as they were later deleted, but there's still a decent chunk in there), and I almost always provide personalized advice backed with good reasoning when declining. You can find my CSD log here (n. 10, 100% success): User:MolecularPilot/CSD_Log, and I've also created 5 articles (see my user page), 4 of which are B class. Thanks for your time! :) MolecularPilot 🧪️✈️ 05:30, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Adding that I'm also very experienced in cleaning formatting, copy editing, wiki linking etc. as I often do that before accepting AfC submissions, and for evidence of criteria #3 about being kind to new users, I think I've helped a good amount of users understand policies/guidelines/reasons for AfC declines etc, a small subset of these can by verified on my user talk page and I'm also very active on the help IRC (admittedly less during the last week due to a personal event). I'm also knowledgable about copyvios, having cleaned a decent amount, informing users about our policy, answering any questions they sent to me and requesting revdel. I've also reviewed around 20 cases on CopyPatrol. Thanks again for your time :) MolecularPilot 🧪️✈️ 05:32, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
 Done. I'll note that your AfD record is in the "so good it's suspicious" range and I was very pleased to see the well-thought out rationales and participation behind the !votes, with little to no votestacking involved. signed, Rosguill talk 17:56, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

I would like to help contribute reduce the large backlog of unreviewed new pages. I've been an active AFC reviewer for a while. I've contributed to and created dozens of articles that are still live to date. ANUwrites 06:30, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done for 1 month as a trial run, after which you may reapply. signed, Rosguill talk 17:59, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

User:Tesleemah

After I was granted the right some weeks ago, I have been reviewing new articles and since it expires in 6 days, I would like to request for an extension Tesleemah (talk) 20:59, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user was granted temporary new page reviewer rights by Rosguill (expires 00:00, 19 December 2024 (UTC)) and has had 1 request for new page reviewer declined in the past 90 days ([3]). — MusikBot talk 21:00, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
Noting that someone has privately expressed concerns about this user as an AfC reviewer / NPP. I'm not personally up for a deep dive at the moment, but I wanted to mention it so that the processing admin can make sure to be thorough with a review.

User:2601AC47

My next logical request for permission, one that I don't suppose I can utilize alongside Ultraviolet to stop the bad faith one-timers and vandals where I watch. Although, I must admit, I should simultaneously take care to not get into any content dispute I see; I'll do my best not to get into one this way. Thanks for considering (again). 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 01:40, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

P.S.: as a sure guarantee my use of rollback is done safely and without causing any significant issue, I'll use Mr. Stradivarius' ConfirmRollback. 2601AC47 (talk·contribs·my rights) Isn't a IP anon 01:45, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

User:SparklingBlueMoon

I would like to be able to access rollback tools to fight vandalism more effectively, I am familiar with Wikipedia's rules. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 17:17, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

User:Jet Pilot

This permission will help me in combating vandalism. I’ve been actively patrolling recent changes, always warning users when necessary, assuming good faith, and taking full responsibility for all my edits. I also do crosswiki patrolling and recently joined the SWMT. — Jet Pilot (talk) 21:03, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

User:XRozuRozu

Hello! I had been actively patrolling RC in 2023 but paused for a long time since I was too busy. I plan to resume soon and would like rollback rights to make it easier. However, I mostly edit on my school computer so I am unable to use any tools such as Huggle, RedWarn, etc. Thank you for considering my request.

Note from 07:07, 6 December 2024 (UTC): I had just been informed that RedWarn can be used on a school computer, so it's very likely that I will be using it. xRozuRozu • teacups 23:57, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

User:ZyphorianNexus

I have been reverting vandalism by undoing edits, warning users, and monitoring several pages to keep them protected. Rollback rights would make my efforts faster and more efficient. I am familiar with WP:VANDAL. ZyphorianNexus (talk) 07:15, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

User:PersonAccount

I have been reverting vandalism since I created my account. Although it appears I am a new user, I also have experience editing Wikipedia and reverting vandalism as an IP for many years (which I will not be disclosing due to security concerns). The rollback right will help me revert vandalism faster, which is why I am requesting it. PersonAccount 🐉 (talk) 20:08, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
