Reason: IP edit warring – WP:HEADLINE, WP:OR, and WP:POV violations. Medxvo (talk) 10:08, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Consistent unsourced changes over the past few days, given the subject of the page passed away recently. Along with multiple conflicting reports on the individual's age. Packerfan386beer here 13:02, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Semi protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Recent IP/new editor disruption. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:44, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Non-constructive edits and vandalism from non registered IPs. Thegreatrebellion (talk) 15:57, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Multiple users, referred to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Slomzy0932 and subsequently blocked, have attempted edits to this article, particularly regarding genres. MPFitz1968 (talk) 16:54, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Multiple users, referred to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Slomzy0932 and subsequently blocked, have attempted edits to this article, particularly regarding genres. MPFitz1968 (talk) 16:55, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Oops, requesting this to be semi-protected, not extended confirmed protected. MPFitz1968 (talk) 16:58, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reported this to AIV - the IP behind this is now partially blocked. Entranced98 (talk) 23:05, 14 April 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Materialscientist (talk) 01:23, 15 April 2025 (UTC)
  • Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 01:37, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 18:00, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: High level of IP unreferenced & non-constructive edits. GnocchiFan (talk) 18:37, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 18:50, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

+1 Plenty of vandalism and BLP issues, especially within the past day. Entranced98 (talk) 23:10, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP 2601:283:4600:36c0:1937:bca:aded:5635, also using other IP's in same range is persistently adding unsourced names to text, is edit warring, had not replied to Talk page warning(s) and has now started "shouting" comments to their constant reversions. Several editors have reverted these unsourced additions, which have been reverted back by IP(s). David J Johnson (talk) 19:02, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: High level of IP vandalism like [1]. Put a page protection for 30 days. see page's history to gain more insights on vandal ip attacks on this page. —⚰️NΛSΛ B1058 (TALK) 19:38, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Materialscientist (talk) 01:24, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Contentious topic restriction. Related to Anti-Zionism. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk · contribs) 21:43, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. And kind of tangential to PIA. Daniel Case (talk) 02:37, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: An IP address in Pakistan (175.107.211.119) has been vandalizing the page repeatedly for about a week. I've been reverting them, but can it perhaps get temporary protection for a couple of weeks, with the hope they'll get bored? Etoile ✩ (talk) 23:13, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Request retracted as the specific IP has been blocked from the page. A peculiar message was left on my talk page almost immediately after, but I have no idea if this is from that user. Etoile ✩ (talk) 23:46, 14 April 2025 (UTC)
Declined per above. Daniel Case (talk) 02:38, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: High level of IP vandalism 191.99.33.138 (talk) 23:53, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 03:06, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Vandalism 191.99.33.138 (talk) 23:54, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Vandalism 191.99.33.138 (talk) 23:54, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Article was only created two weeks ago. Daniel Case (talk) 03:10, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: IP vandalism 191.99.33.138 (talk) 23:56, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of six months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will log at CTOPS under WP:CT/KURD. Daniel Case (talk) 03:18, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: User request within own user space. Per BusterD's comment in Special:Diff/1285477831, it was protected because of WP:DE, but there appears to be no good reason for non-extended-confirmed users to edit my user page. That user also said I can request any administrator to change the protection level if I choose to do so. Z. Patterson (talk) 01:54, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: If left unprotected, this Wikipedia will be 100% vandalized over the next two weeks before the Canadian election. 67.193.169.85 (talk) 02:20, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

[edit]
Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on 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.

Reason: I would like request the removal of page protection for Julian Bunetta. This page was salted in March 2020 following a successful AfD, and from the comments there, it seems like he failed WP:MUSICBIO at the time and that the content was lacking. While I'm sure that as true at the time, Bunetta's rise in profile, the significant increase in coverage about him, and his recent Grammy nominations made him seem a little overdue for a page, so I've been working on putting that together for the last month or so. I created a draft in my userspace that includes a plethora of sources and information about his life and career, and I think it warrants the removal of creation protection.

As an extra note, I also plan to make a discography page for him due to the volume of his work if this protection is lifted, so the existing discography section would split out to that page and expanded to include non-singles. Sock (tock talk) 00:21, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: The information is outdated and due nature of protection information can be updated GlobalAirport (talk) 15:06, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

The talk page is not protected. Sumanuil. (talk to me) 03:28, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Page has been protected since 2008 (17 years) as of 2025. Given that there hasn't been much vandalism, I think we could try pending changes Filmssssssssssss (talk) 17:02, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because vandalism in this article has died down. 2600:1700:6180:6290:9166:760B:763B:2730 (talk) 23:34, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

 Comment:That's kind of what protection is for. Sumanuil. (talk to me) 03:29, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Page has been protected since 2017 (8 years) as of 2025. Given that there hasn't been much vandalism, I think we could try pending changes. 69.193.154.106 (talk) 23:45, 14 April 2025 (UTC)

 Comment: Have you considered that the vandalism might have stopped because of the protection? Sumanuil. (talk to me) 03:31, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because sockpuppet is no active anymore and not much vandalism on this page it has been protected by MelanieN on July 7, 2020 plus she no longer administrator I just checked the tool username information according to unprotection request who ever is inactive or no longer administrator it can be appeal, if who ever active then we will have to contact who protect by username administrator so I'm requesting to be unprotected. 69.193.154.106 (talk) 00:04, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

The last time it was unprotected (right before the aforementioned prot by MelanieN), it had to be reinstated because of sockpuppetry even after seven years. Discounting that history, this unprotection request segues into the nonsensical. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 00:08, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Or maybe we could try pending changes either way. 69.193.154.106 (talk) 00:15, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

PC reviewers don't check why the page is protected. They approve the changes only if they perceive them as valid. (CC) Tbhotch 03:35, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Reducing protection would allow for constructive contributions from more editors and help improve the article collaboratively. Wikimaster23456 (talk) 03:28, 15 April 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

[edit]
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.
