Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Article is also subject of WP:ARBDS. IanDBeacon (talk) 07:10, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Note: None of the disruption that I see from the past two years comes from autoconfirmed accounts, so I don't see the benefit in applying ECP here. It's also slow-moving. I understand that ARBDS applies, but I'm unsure of how that would advocate in favor of ECP in this case (am I missing something?). I'd personally be fine applying an indefinite semi-protection on the article, but I know that's more heavy-handed than many other administrators may be comfortable with. I'm curious to see what other admins clerking this page think. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 07:40, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Spoken_Wikipedia_Header_Template

• Template:Spoken Wikipedia Header Template (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Please place indefinite extended user protection to template as the project is being re-amped and will be published throughout Wikipedia as we complete more articles. Audio files have already been pushed to some articles. This is the project template header. Thanks, Galendalia Talk to me ^{CVU Graduate} 09:14, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. CaptainEek ^{Edits Ho Cap'n!}⚓ 16:03, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a page, it is a project header template that is used on many pages and I am requested extended confirmed access only so it does not get broken because it will break the hierarchy of the project. Galendalia Talk to me ^{CVU Graduate} 17:07, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The template itself is only used 7 times. As CaptainEek says above, pages (templates are also pages) are not protected preemptively and also the template itself is not high risk as it has a very small amount of transclusions. If disruption occurs, then the page can be protected. Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 17:11, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Dreamy Jazz: - I just found the RFC with the criteria. Maybe those numbers could be made more prominent somewhere. Thanks for the information. Galendalia Talk to me ^{CVU Graduate} 17:24, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Unprotection: This article is confused with Chandler Sterling (Bishop) as opposed to Sterling Chandler (Photographer). Reason for request is to edit article. Also include redirect page to Chandler Sterling Ellswiki (talk) 21:35, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Beetstra: is the protecting admin. (Non-administrator comment) Alucard 16_{❯❯❯ chat?} 09:08, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ellswiki, there is no confusion, there was massive hijacking of the bishop’s page while it should have been at the correct name. Moreover, seen those hijacking attempts I doubt that the photographer is notable. So .. create it through WP:AFC in the draft namespace, and submit it. If it actually is sufficient, any admin can move it over the redirect and remove the protection. For me, unprotection is  Declined. Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 10:30, 30 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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.
