Current requests for increase in protection level

[edit]
Request protection of a page, or increasing the 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.


Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Anonymized user insists on adding original research and correcting the marriage year contrary to provided source (1994 vs 1998). Hariboneagle927 (talk) 13:54, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: 2603:8000:2A00:3EE6:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs) blocked by Daniel Case. for three months. Daniel Case (talk) 00:55, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
2603:8000:2a00:3ee6:590c:e9db:726e:eac2 is continuing with the same editing pattern, specifically adding an unsourced timeframe for the subject's initial preferred name. I really do insist on a temporary page protection to just clean up the page. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 01:53, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
Nevermind they have been blocked too. ThanksHariboneagle927 (talk) 01:55, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 16:03, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined Again I think this is too far out of scope. Daniel Case (talk) 00:58, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism since 06:07, 10 January 2025. Alith Anar 16:48, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined, as the IP has stopped. Nothing for four weeks beforehand. Sdrqaz (talk) 00:53, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. User:Namiba 17:45, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will leave CTOPS notice on talk page. Daniel Case (talk) 01:11, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 18:52, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined Again, I think, too old to be in scope. Daniel Case (talk) 02:46, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 18:52, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined Died last year, yes, but I don't think he's a hot topic anymore. Daniel Case (talk) 02:49, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Disruptive MOS issues by IP editor range. Mass rewriting article with poor to no sources, additions of nonexisting files, etc, later IPs of same range keep reinstating the content that was objected to. Zinnober9 (talk) 18:54, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 23:05, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
    Already protected by administrator ToBeFree. For one month. Sdrqaz (talk) 01:51, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Since the end of December. Skywatcher68 (talk) 19:10, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: MALAKAS1 (talk · contribs). Globally locked. Daniel Case (talk) 02:51, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 19:28, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protected indefinitely. Will log at CTOPS. Daniel Case (talk) 02:57, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Sustained vandalism for the last month, adding factually incorrect information (such as fake cast members). If the article were semi'd for a month or so it will hopefully encourage the vandal to move on. Betty Logan (talk) 19:48, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. There are some good IP edits in there too.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP vandalism. Doc Strange (talk) 20:00, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: 2A02:587:4700:0:0:0:0:0/41 (talk · contribs). Partially from the article. Sdrqaz (talk) 01:51, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IPs adding non-NPOV information to a contentious topic despite being warned numerous times to use talk page per WP:ONUS. CNMall41 (talk) 20:08, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. By Doug Weller. @CNMall41: Why would extended-confirmed be needed if there are only IPs? Sdrqaz (talk) 01:51, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
@Sdrqaz:, it wouldn't. Didn't realize I requested extended. Semi is all that is needed. Sorry. --CNMall41 (talk) 01:56, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
@CNMall41: No worries! Sdrqaz (talk) 02:47, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism and sock puppet abuse. Drummingman (talk) 21:58, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent changes that are inaccurate for the page https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Solitarios If this isn't the place to request this, please send the Spanish link for this request. Thank you. Gaming222 (talk) 22:51, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

@Gaming222: The page you want is es:Wikipedia:Tablón de anuncios de los bibliotecarios/Portal/Archivo/Protección de artículos/Actual, I think. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:58, 10 February 2025 (UTC)
Declined (we don't have authority there). Sdrqaz (talk) 00:53, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Repeated, undiscussed change to Jerusalem entry, previously stable for over two years. Any substantive change to this entry would seem to warrant discussion. The relevant edits, from a roving Melbourne, Australia-based IP, are: [3], [4], [5]. Declangi (talk) 23:15, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. TVHead (talk) 23:37, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: 2600:4040:2B88:B700:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs) blocked by PhilKnight. Been disrupted by two accounts/IPs since the last protection's expiry on 28 January, which should mean that the block is sufficient. Sdrqaz (talk) 01:51, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content, primarily from IPs. Magitroopa (talk) 00:09, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Vandalism from different IPs (probably from the same person, as they use the same summary) arbitrarily removing references to the Catalan language. Flopgui (talk) 00:25, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent disruptive edits by IP Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 00:31, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Requesting temporary semi-protection due to IPs changing "Gulf of Mexico" to "Gulf of America." Trivialist (talk) 01:16, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Also falls under arbitration enforcement for post-1992 US politics given context. Departure– (talk) 01:31, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
As part of that, could WP:BRD or WP:CRD be enforced? IanDBeacon (talk) 02:23, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content. Johnj1995 (talk) 01:47, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism by I.P editors and newcomers. Flat Out (talk) 02:00, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: 138.217.144.194 (talk · contribs). Other account is on their final warning. I've added the article to my watchlist. Sdrqaz (talk) 02:47, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: PCProt, while effective, hasn't stopped the volume of spam we're getting. JayCubby 02:24, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Insufficient frequency for semi-protection. Sdrqaz (talk) 02:47, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Reason: High level of traffic during wiki-banner, until the 24th of Feb, thanks Oscar_. (talk) 02:51, 11 February 2025 (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 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.

Reason: This page has been protected for *ten years*. It is the only engine page for major US manufacturers that is. It is not an *inherently contentious* page like many on religion, sexuality, ethnic strife, and such (which can remain persistently problematic). The page has had plenty of time to ride out a spate of probematic editing/unregistered editors. It needs the opportunity to be freely edited, and settle itself down. 2601:196:180:DC0:4842:76FD:4D84:35D5 (talk) 15:26, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

FYI Biblioworm. There's certainly a lot of disruption on car articles generally, but I'm not sure about a specific engine nowadays – I checked in the archives and the last time we had an engine-related request was in October (note that I only did a Ctrl+F check and that the Ford IP seems unrelated to this one). Sdrqaz (talk) 17:17, 7 February 2025 (UTC)

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.


This article is written in Spanish and does not have an English version. I am involved in literary scholarship concerning Pereira's work and would like to translate his Wikipedia page into English as part of this work. I need permissions in order to undertake this translation work. Ragazzostar76 (talk) 01:05, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

@Ragazzostar76: Create a draft for the translation. Nine times out of ten, a straight translation of the page as it currently stands won't work as the English-language Wikipedia has both stricter and better-enforced sourcing standards. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 02:53, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
