    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.

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent change of birth year by IP users. This has been an issue since February 2024. Telenovelafan215 (talk) 02:26, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Telenovelafan215: There is nothing on article talk. Since this is an ongoing issue, there should be a section briefly setting out how the DoB is known—preferably a link to a reliable source with a quote from that source. If there is no reliable source, the date should be removed. Johnuniq (talk) 09:22, 5 May 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.

    1961 Kunar River Incursion

    Reason: Numerous individuals have edited my Wikipedia article, spreading false information, and attempting to delete it despite being accepted by many users. 2001:8003:3F18:1C00:F5F7:C528:9763:9738 (talk) 02:48, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    You will not be allowed to remove the AfD template as long as the deletion debate is ongoing. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v AE thread summaries 06:39, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    (Not an admin but...) this is the place for requesting a reduction in protection level. This page is currently unprotected. Did you to put it above, in the increase section?
    If you did, then please do not go and change it now. The deletion discussion is part of wikipedia's process and must stay as long as the discussion is ongoing. Other people will edit your article, but it's not yours, no one owns any articles here. I see no inaccurate information
    Also, you haven't ever even editing the article, let along created it Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 10:41, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    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.
