Help me!

Please help me with... I am an autoconfirmed editor, but Wikipedia is not letting me edit pages marked as semi-protected. I've thoroughly searched through my notifications, but haven't found any reason why this is happening to me. 888888jdog 22:55, 25 February 2018 (UTC)888888jdog

What page are you trying to edit? --Majora (talk) 23:01, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm trying to add a section on the Vine (service) page that talks about notable vines that gained popularity and went viral.

Well I don't see why you shouldn't be able to edit the page. Are you getting any specific error messages? In any case, editing it for that reason doesn't seem like a good idea to me. Random facts like that is not really what we are looking for in a summary style encyclopedia entry. If you do want to include such things please start a conversation on the article's talk page, Talk:Vine (service), to see what other people think about it. --Majora (talk) 23:19, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if this is a glitch or anything, because I'm relativley new to Wikipedia, but unless I switch to mobile view, it will not allow me to edit semi-protected articles. I'm wondering if there is any forum where I can report this type of error.

Are you getting any error message? If you can't edit it because of protection you would get a banner that says so. Also please remember to sign your posts on talk pages like this. You can do so with four tildes ~~~~. --Majora (talk) 23:47, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not getting any error messages necessarily its only not allowing me to edit semi-protected articles. Other than that everything seems to be working fine.
