Wikipedia:Requests for page protection

Page semi-protected
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Wikipedia:RFP)
    Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.

    Before requesting, read the protection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism to high-risk templates; semi-protection and pending changes are usually used to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars. Extended confirmed protection is used where semi-protection has proved insufficient (see the rough guide to extended confirmed protection)

    After a page has been protected, it is listed in the page history and logs with a short rationale, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins should not revert to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism.

    Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    Request a specific edit to a protected page
    Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

    Reason: Hello fellow editors,

    I am submitting a request for an increase in page protection for the Trade Republic Wikipedia page, due to a growing issue of vandalism that is part of a larger fraud operation. Fraudsters are repeatedly adding false information, such as fake personnel and entities, in order to impersonate the official company and scam unsuspecting customers. This has led to hundreds of people falling victim to these scams, believing they are interacting with the legitimate Trade Republic bank when they are, in fact, transferring money to fraudsters.

    One of the fraudulent websites involved in this scam is hxxps://cfd[.]traderepublicatrading[.]com, which impersonates Trade Republic using the fake entity 'Trade Republica' that scammers add to the page. The false information added to Wikipedia is being leveraged by these scammers to lend credibility to their operations, causing significant financial harm to users who trust the content on Wikipedia.

    Given the seriousness and the real-world impact of these malicious edits, I believe higher protection is necessary to prevent further abuse. We have had hundreds of cases of individuals falling victim to this scam, and extended protection would go a long way in ensuring the integrity of the page and protecting the public from being misled.

    I hope the community and administrators can consider this request for longer-term protection to safeguard both the page and its users.

    Thank you for your attention to this serious issue,

    Reason: War editing due to "Legacy" section, users stopped to add "Grounded Videos" on Legacy section, despite this, there are a real problem, some users continue to add text revealing Caillou with these next sources : [1][2][3].

    An example, if I show my "Wrapper Offline" series at Stade Le Gallo (AC Boulogne-Billancourt) and they filmed an episode of my series and upload it on YouTube, posted it on Facebook or make an article on their website (see here), these sources are reliable? IMO, YouTube is not reliable, is Facebook, Twitter, Instragram and ACBB Foot website are reliable? Do we need reliable sources like Le Parisien, BFM, Sky News, CNN, BBC or other French and especially English real sources to add "Grounded Videos" on Legacy section?

    IMO, if this war editing don't stop, unless the users find a consensus on the discussion page (see talk), the best is or protect the page or use a filter. Thanks. Manchesterunited1234 (talk) 14:01, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Rotating/proxy IPs posting BLP violating screeds. Note that this is happening on both the article and the talk page. MrOllie (talk) 14:04, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Reason: Persistent vandalism by anonymous IP Surayeproject3 (talk) 14:04, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Correcting my reasoning to:
    Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing[1] - IP user continuously switches the article between Aramean and Assyrian, while the sources use the name "Assyrian" and linked articles use Assyrian as well Surayeproject3 (talk) 14:10, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Reason: Persistent unreferenced edits from IP users. The most recent edit from an IP user, included references that don't align with the references they've posted.[2] Hotwiki (talk) 15:17, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    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.

    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    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.


    I want to add a little information inside the template since houthi is already added on the Belligerents side i think we should add the casualties of the yemani also in the template same as egyptians or syrians especially those who died as resulted from isreali airstrike and according to those articles 20 July 2024 Israeli attack on Yemen and 29 September 2024 Israeli attacks on Yemen, the yemani casualties are 20 killed, and +147 injured 70.26.36.11 (talk) 03:48, 10 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    In the second paragraph it states that "The desire to prevent the collapse of the Palestinians and to avoid more refugees were some of the reasons for the entry of the Arab League into the country, which began the 1948 Arab–Israeli War." It is absurd to characterize the invasion by the Arab league into Israel, which triggered the War of Independence as an "entry". The words "entry of" should be changed to "invasion by" which is supported by the source text and just about every other paper on the Israeli War of Independance.
