"WP:RFP" and "WP:RPP" redirect here. You may also be looking for Wikipedia:Requests for permissions, Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission, or Wikipedia:Random page patrol.
    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 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
    this header: view • edit



    Current requests for increase in protection level

    Place requests for new or upgrading of article protection, upload protection, or create 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.

    Current requests for reduction in 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.

    talk:Texas Revolution

    Remove semi-protection: Protection seems to have been placed by a WP:INVOLVED administrator (Maile66) who is abusing admin rights for his own edits, blocking discussion after previously restoring edits that are traced to a racist and non-valid source through the use of false accusations of sockpuppetry.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.87.121.163 (talk • contribs)

    Declined. First of all, the page wasn't protected by Maile66, and it is not protected indefinitely. And secondly, I am not about to undo another admin's protection duration without a really good reason. (Even if, admittedly, my own MO is for much shorter durations.) As for accusations of "racist and non-valid source through the use of false accusations of sockpuppetry"—the proof to that convoluted and confusing claim is in the diffs, which you have failed to cite. Something dosen't feel quite right. El_C 00:55, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Denial by El C is a mistake for the following reasons:

    1. - Maile66 is WP:INVOLVED at Texas Revolution, having made numerous content edits to the page.
    2. - Maile66 is similarly WP:INVOLVED at talk:Texas Revolution.
    3. - Maile66, despite being WP:INVOLVED used admin powers to lock the talk:Texas Revolution under what appear based on the content I can see, to be false claims of bad editing.
    4. - Maile66 has also used his admin powers in a content dispute on talk:Texas Revolution despite being WP:INVOLVED.
    5. - Maile66 has demanded that "we need to hear from Karanacs on this" and is trying to use user:Karanacs's silence as a reason not to remove clearly problematic content from the article. user:Karanacs is known by Maile66 to be retired and/or otherwise inactive from the project, Karanacs having had administrative powers removed for inactivity after a full year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.87.121.163 (talk • contribs)
    Note: Just an observation: the talk-page was indeed protected by Maile66. But imho the underlying problem will not be solved by requests here at RfP. Lectonar (talk) 08:01, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: My bad, the reference indeed was to the talk page, which will be automatically unprotected in a few weeks. Apparently, it was due to abuse of multiple accounts. El_C 09:02, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Declined I also decline; out of scope of WP:RFP.Lectonar (talk) 10:57, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Note: IP blocked for block evasion. But a one month semi-protect on a talk page after one edit seems very much like overkill. Pinging Maile66 so they're aware of this discussion. NeilN talk to me 13:47, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    Further information: Wikipedia:Edit requests
    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.
