    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.

    Neilia Hunter Biden

    Temporary pending changes: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – All IP edits in the past six months were reverted. Given the subject is very close to the candidate of the US presidential election, I suggest implementing pending changes protection until after the 2024 presidential election (Nov 5) is over. Broc (talk) 06:07, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Please enforce WP:CT/AP IanDBeacon (talk) 17:19, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Valkyrie Anatomia

    Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. Ae245 (talk) 07:55, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Tiyyar

    Reason: Request for Extended Page Protection. Page is vandalized multiple times by anonymous IPs who delete sourced entries. The current status of community is mentioned in first paragraph but IP moved it to history section, which does not suit current status of community. Piyush Chekavar (talk) 09:42, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Muuse Ismaciil Qalinle

    Reason: Repeated (mostly IP) editor removal of AfD tag within less than 48 hours. (See diffs here: [1] [2], [3], [4], [5].) Temporary protection requested until conclusion of AfD discussion. Thanks! Dclemens1971 (talk) 11:19, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Deadpool & Wolverine

    Semi-protection: Many reverted edits after the end of the last protection (only 2 days ago), with unsourced, unnecessary and wrong edits--Luke Stark 96 (talk) 11:22, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Talk:Kalki 2898 AD

    Reason: The talk page bombed by repeat Extended-confirmed-protected edit request and comments to change the boxoffice numbers by many IPs. After answering the requests, the comments and request continue to repeat. Can the talk page be protected for confirmed users only for some period of time? RangersRus (talk) 12:32, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Jamie Maclaren

    Reason: High level of IP vandalism from India. He has been linked with joining an Indian club but nothing is confirmed or near completion but this page is continuously vandalised applying he has joined the club and has a squad number. The vandalism is also done with very poor grammar/english. Nzs9 (talk) 12:49, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Ghulja incident

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – WP:GS/UYGHUR, enforcement. -Lemonaka 12:50, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Prima Donnas

    Reason: Persistent vandalism from IP users. Hotwiki (talk) 14:03, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Julian Assange

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. 🔥Jalapeño🔥 Stupid stuff I did 14:37, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Steven Stamkos

    Reason: high levels of IP edits after free agency rumors. 45BearsFan (talk) 15:50, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Masoud Pezeshkian

    Reason: This article, related to the President candidate of Iran, is out of control with edits from no-account users who are removing vital info without a single explanation. Do something, its getting out of hand... Farnaj57 (talk) 18:05, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Popular Mobilization Forces

    Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Just like Islamic Resistance in Iraq, this article is related to the Arab–Israeli conflict and Attacks on U.S. bases in Iraq, Jordan, and Syria during the Israel–Hamas war and should probably get protected. Skitash (talk) 18:06, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Despicable Me 4

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Hello, various users have been repeatedly removing the plot, stating that it contains spoiler or that the film was not released in the US. Can we protect the page until the said release July, 3 to avoid constant reverts and inappropriate comments (see my talk, page and page history)? Thank you. -My, oh my! (Mushy Yank) 18:11, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    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 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.

    2010 Atlantic hurricane season

    Reason: The extended confirmed protection is no longer necessary because the autoconfirmed vandalism-only account that vandalized the page in October 2022 probably won't come back to this article. I would suggest reducing it to semi-protection or unprotecting the page entirely. 24.115.255.37 (talk) 21:09, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Whoops, I did not discuss with the protecting admin first. I did not see that note until after submitting this. 24.115.255.37 (talk) 21:10, 29 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Well, you still haven't notified him, so now I shall have to do so. @Cryptic: how say you? Favonian (talk) 15:19, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    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.
