Wikipedia:Requests for page protection
Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here. | ||
---|---|---|
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 |

Current requests for increase in protection level
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.
Reason: A user (Sira Aspera) since April 2024 is repeadetly editing back every correction of the page. I have been giving more detailed informations about the execution of Şehzade Mustafa, however, this user have edited back, with poorly written undetailed text, my corrections and editions despite the sourcings. Therefore, I request your protection of this site as of 10.09.2024, 13:32 UTC version. 94.254.118.178 (talk) 13:34, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
- If we semi-protect the page you won't be able to edit it. Daniel Case (talk) 18:59, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 21:39, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protection: - IP disruption after appointment as Foreign Minister.--BabbaQ (talk) 15:45, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Daniel Case (talk) 19:09, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent addition of unsourced content by IP-hopping editor since 15:28, 7 September 2024. Panian513 18:28, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
User(s) blocked: 2A02:C7C:6D8A:6A00:0:0:0:0/64 (talk · contribs) blocked by PhilKnight. for 48 hours. Daniel Case (talk) 19:26, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Long-term sockpuppetry by autoconfirmed accounts of GENSEX POV-pusher Raxythecat since May 2023.
Socks by Raxy that edited this article (there could be more IPs):
- User:Big Money Threepwood (last sock, March 2024)
- User:The Sausage Grinder (November 2023)
- User:Underwoods Witch (September 2023)
- User:How I could just edit a wiki article (July 2023)
- User:A person from nowhere (July 2023)
- 107.115.5.65 (an IP very similar to those at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Raxythecat/Archive; July 2023)
- 107.115.5.101 (July 2023)
- User:Very Average Editor (May 2023)
Raxy seems to be an experienced sockpuppeteer and, judging by the number of reverts by his accounts, he has this page on his "watchlist", so a temporary semi-protection would have little effect here. And judging by the similar POV and article preferences, User:BreadCastle and User:Mushfluff could also be related to this, the article was protected for sockpuppetry in 2020 because of them.

Extended confirmed protected indefinitely. Aoidh (talk) 23:46, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
Reason: Repeated removal of sourced content; page was previously locked for a year. As soon as the protection was removed, the vadalism and deletion of high-quality, credible sourced content started again. Belladonna2024 (talk) 22:32, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 7 days by User:ScottishFinnishRadish, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Aoidh (talk) 23:58, 10 September 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level
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.
Current requests for edits 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.
"On 1 April, seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen, including British, Polish, Australian, and Irish nationals, were killed in an Israeli airstrike south of Deir al-Balah" is incorrect and should be reworded as
"On 1 April, seven aid workers from World Central Kitchen, including a dual US-Canada national, a Palestinian, three British citizens, an Australian, and a Pole, were killed in an Israeli airstrike south of Deir al-Balah" as per [1], [2]. 148.75.59.49 (talk) 23:26, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
I suggest adding to 'War Crimes' a section about the Sde Teiman detention camp. The use of concentration/torture camps is a very notable war crime and an important fact as it pertains to the ceasefire negotiations regarding hostage swaps. It is also relevant as many have been taken from Gaza and are being tortured under pretext of "interrogation." Jdftba (talk) 08:36, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
