Current requests for increase in protection level
[edit]Place requests for protection increases at the BOTTOM of this section. If you cannot find your request, check the archive of requests or, failing that, the page history. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Temporary semi-protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring. Luke th3nuk (talk) 00:22, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Scott Wozniak has recently made a video on his wikipedia article. This has encouraged users to edit the page. While some are certainly acting to improve the encyclopedia, others are attempting to vandalize the page with jokes from the show. Industrial Insect (talk) 00:52, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – ARBPIA. PlotinusEnjoyer (talk) 01:30, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Disruption by multiple IP editors on talk page for several days now. RachelTensions (talk) 02:08, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
- Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 02:18, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: IP editor consistently editing disruptively, insisting on using stylisations in opposition to the MoS and the article's title. – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 02:26, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: An IP user keeps repeatedly vandalizing this page and won't stop. I am requesting a protection on this page if possible to stop the vandalism. Thanks.HJHooker00 (talk) 02:56, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]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: The protection is no longer necessary because I need to add an untitled project to the film list. 174.128.153.62 (talk) 01:12, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
- You can request an edit request. Removing the protection just for you is unnecessary. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 01:50, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Indefinite pending changes protection: Testing whether long-term protection is still needed. No vandalism ever since it was last protected. I have already asked the protecting admin, but I doubt that they'll respond since they are busy and their last contribution was three weeks ago. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 01:45, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Keep the semi protection. But the pending changes is no longer necessary, I request that it be removed because it is redundant70.53.89.38 (talk) 03:10, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]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.

"Do you want to take a survey?"
[edit]On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.

Early Anon work, no need to bug the developers

More recently 1,250 or so edits on 75.41.110.200 are apparently all mine. Apparently my new ID is 75.41.109.190. There are undoubtedly many others as the earliest history of many articles was not preserved by the software.
