Legality of Cannabis by U.S. Jurisdiction

    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

    Janata Dal (United)

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Recently I reverted it to last stable version. Since there is no protection some ips are actively removing sourced content on dubious ground which is often not tracked. Admantine123 (talk) 09:02, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User talk:Joseph2302

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – To prevent harassment from an IP user that won't stop posting here despite polite requests to do so and a clear "no templating" banner on my talkpage. No useful edits by IPs to my talkpage for months. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:47, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Blaze Bayley discography

    Reason: Persistent LTA. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/TyMega. HorrorLover555 (talk) 11:05, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Equal opportunity

    Reason: Repeated attempts by multiple contributors to add off-topic and otherwise unsuitable content to the article. That the contributors appear to be participants in an educational program (see [1]), but are refusing to engage in discussions. AndyTheGrump (talk) 11:38, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Dev Pragad

    Reason: I’ve recently started working on the article, noticed in History IP edits are persistently happening. I would like this page protected from unregistered users. EntrepreneurPedia (talk) 12:49, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    DeclinedPages are not protected preemptively. Constructive ip edits are welcome, and I do not see any significant vandalism or disruptive editing that would warrant page protection. If you have dispute concerning content please attempt to get consensus on the article talk page. Xymmax So let it be written So let it be done 13:28, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    The Hooley Dooleys

    Reason: A game of whack-a-mole with IPs beginning 203.30.4.* who are repeatedly adding nonsense to the article and have been for a couple of days. Individual blocks aren't working, so anon-only (is that called ECP?) would be useful for a week or two. I'm aware that'll block me from the article, but I have no interest in it anyway (I've only ever edited it to revert 203.30.4.*). 81.187.192.168 (talk) 13:55, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Fire Emblem: Thracia 776

    Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Frequent and persistent LTA target; temporary protection isn't clearly cutting it. Blake Gripling (talk) 14:01, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Raphaelle Ortega-David

    Indefinite pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – BLP thats a Sockpuppet target. Indef PC could discourage them from making edits to this. Nobody (talk) 14:05, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the 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

    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.
