Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Decrease

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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.

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Montana Tucker[edit]

Reason: This page has been protected in 2008, after several attempts at COI biographies. In other words, very much justified at that time. 16 years have passed and by now she passes the GNG. I wish to undo what is by now an injustice. gidonb (talk) 22:43, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gidonb: Do you have a ready draft article you could use to help justify unprotecting it? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 22:47, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have something on my machine I plan to use once unprotected. It's not very organized. I will add plenty of references and tie to the many pages where she is currently mentioned.[1] It's a similar effort really to the Brian Balmages article that I recreated. Was also understandably removed for peacock, yet notable. gidonb (talk) 22:53, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Module:RFX report[edit]

Reason: Downgrade to semi-protection to match Template:RFX report, which is the only template that invokes this module. They are both transcluded on 389 other pages. (For a period of three months in 2022 the module was transcluded on >5000 pages because of this edit, later reverted, so the bot template-protected it.) If semi is too low, please increase Template:RFX report to match the module. SilverLocust 💬 06:24, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Module:Rfx[edit]

Reason: Downgrade to semi-protection from template-protection. Transcluded on 457 pages. It is invoked by Module:RFX report, so the bot template-protected it in 2022 for the same reason. SilverLocust 💬 06:24, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Calgary International Airport[edit]

Unprotection: I think it can have the PC removed at this point, I don't see persistent vandalism or disruptive editing in the past couple years of edits. the only IP vandalism has been minor and infrequent. it's certainly not at the level it was when the page was protected. I also see constructive edits by unregistered and unconfirmed editors. -- Aunva6talk - contribs 15:53, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Check the filter log. It hasn't stopped. It's just getting held up by the filters. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 21:30, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
