Indefinite semi-protection: Given the number of times this page has bursts of unnecessary edits and vandalism, I think indefinite semi-protection is warranted. I understand these are managable but I (and many others) would prefer we block them permanently rather than go through an endless routine. It would put this page on the same protection level as pages protection, in my humble opinion, for a lot less. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]

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.

Draft:William Bishop[edit]

• Draft:William Bishop (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: Create-protecting the generic form of this name in draft space is not needed, and may interfere with submission of a draft for someone other than the current subject. Multiple forms of the name are already create-protected in article space, and some in draft space also. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:09, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page[edit]

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.

Hi and thanks for looking. I'do love to volunteer in patrolling recent changes as well as other aspect of vandalism. My previous request was followed by my bad in lacking civility over IPs, which Dan Cherek advised me. For atleast close/a month, I've taken the advice and sometimes instead of warning, I write messages to the editor in question. I'm not perfect but will do my best in patrolling Special:RecentChanges. I have maintained at least in a good capability, a track record of consistently notifying editors after reverting. Thanks for considering me also.— Safari Scribe^{Edits!
