Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – After block of Pesclinomenosomlos, a rotating cast of IP editors have been "contributing" to the discussion, in apparent block evasion. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 16:17, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – No pending changes seem to be actually constructive, might be a waste of resources to continue to review every one that comes through. Semi-protection would be ideal. > Asheiou (they/them • talk) 19:06, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. -Fastily 20:35, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not one user - it's lots of IPs and every pending edit the page has had for months has been reverted. Every single IP edit to the page since August is marked as reverted. > Asheiou (they/them • talk) 21:17, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary full protection: Persistent insertion of copyrighted material. Moxy🍁 01:19, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should get extended confirmed protection since the users in question don't have that right. I think full protection is a step too far. Aydoh8 (talk | contribs) 01:53, 30 April 2024 (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.

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.

A historical archive of previous protection requests can be found at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Archive.
