Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser

This page is for requesting that a page, image or template be fully protected, semi-protected, move-protected or unprotected. Please read up on the protection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism to Wikipedia:High-risk templates; semi-protection is usually used only to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars After a page has been protected, the protection is listed in the page history and logs with a short description indicating why it was protected, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. Further discussion should take place on the Talk page of the article. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins do not revert back to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism. Instructions If you would like to request a page to be protected or unprotected, please follow the following steps: Add a level 4 header at the TOP of either the protection or unprotection list and place one of the templates from the table below within the header. (for example, for an article use: ===={{la|ARTICLE}}====) If you are requesting protection, place the type of request (full protection, semi-protection, or move protection) and a brief reason for your request below your header. If you are requesting unprotection, it is usually a good idea to ask the protecting admin first before listing a page here. Please do not add arbitrary requests for a protection expiry time to your request. If there is a reason for a page to be protected for a certain amount of time, such as protecting a usertalk page until the user is unblocked, please make this clear. If you are requesting indefinite semi-protection, be aware that it is only applied to articles with endemic vandalism problems like George W. Bush, and not to articles with half a dozen IP vandalism edits in the last fortnight. Sign your request with four tildes ~~~~ and save. Administrators: Please mark reviewed requests using {{RFPP}}, so that a bot may recognize and archive those entries. Note that this is not a venue for continuing an argument from elsewhere. If a request contains excessive arguing, is being used for edit-warring or content disputes, contains personal attacks or uncivil comments, or any other unrelated discussion, it will be removed from this page.
