Current requests for increase in protection level
Place requests for protection increases at the BOTTOM of this section. If you cannot find your request, check the archive of requests or the page history. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Family Reunion: Love & Hip Hop Edition
Reason: Repeatedly vandalism. Octaviyanti Dwi Wahyurini (talk) 01:17, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. @Octaviyanti Dwi Wahyurini: There are no recent edits whatsoever. Please don't make page protection requests in the absence of recent and significant disruption. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 02:47, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Don Huffines
Reason: Repeated addition of unsourced controversial claims relating to Epstein in BLP currently running for office. aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 03:52, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. It's a borderline case but it falls under WP:CT/AP. RunningOnBrains(talk) 04:32, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
User:Ipaduser1123
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Because I don't like how "I'm the one who makes microwaves" is all over. – Gasgas11 Talk! Watch! 04:05, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- I have reverted your removal of their user page. You "not liking" somebody's user page is 1) not a reason to blank it and 2) not a reason to request indefinite protection for it. I have also reverted the "disruptive editing" warning you left for them. aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 04:22, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- Noting that you immediately reverted again and then tried to leave a warning on my page. @Izno, I think a few things need to be reviewed... aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 04:26, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- Probably better to throw that one at @PhilKnight, or otherwise at a forum more tuned to your question. (Not to say "told you so" but because I think technically if I instate a block here that's a wheel war? :) Izno (talk) 04:34, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- Valid point. Until @PhilKnight is active, I have left a notice on their talk page about WP:BLANKING after they tried to restore an improperly given warning on my own talk page. Possible that they just lack a basic understanding of Wikipedia policies given that they are a new editor, so at least now they know. 🤷🏽♀️ aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 04:37, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

Declined I second aesurias's assessment; a review of WP:UPNOT does not give me any reason to think this content is disallowed. RunningOnBrains(talk) 04:31, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- Would you/somebody mind restoring the user page, which Gasgas11 had no right to change?
- @Gasgas11, please also:
- - do not leave improper warnings (my talk page and Ipad's, for example)
- - do not restore improper warnings (or any warnings, actually) that were removed by a user on their own talk page
- - do not claim that my edits are "vandalism" or threaten a block from editing for "disruptive editing" because I reverted an edit you made that broke a guideline aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 04:34, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

Reason: High level of unproductive IP and new user edits - some vandalism. The article subject is a controversial one. Requesting lasting semi-protection of page to quiet the noise. Thankyou. TimeToFixThis | 🕒 04:37, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Current requests for reduction in protection level
Before posting a request for unprotection, please discuss it with the protecting administrator first. You can create a request below only if you receive no response from them.
To find out which administrator protected the page, go to the page's edit history and click on the "View logs for this page" link (located underneath the page's title). The protecting administrator is listed in the protection log entry, next to the words "protected", "changed protection level", or "configured pending changes". If there are a large number of log entries on the page, use the drop-down menu near the top of the page and select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" to filter the logs accordingly.
DO NOT request a reduction in protection if...
- ...you are being prevented from editing the page. A desire to change content is not a valid reason for unprotection. Instead:
- If you can edit the article's talk page, use the WP:Edit Request Wizard to propose a change on the article's talk page. Include an explanation of the exact content that you want to change, and what the content will be afterward.
- If the article's talk page is protected, you may propose a change at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Edit.
- ...your reasoning for reducing protection is that the article has not been vandalized. That simply means the protection is working as intended.
- ...your reasoning for reducing protection is basically "a long time has passed" without supporting details.
- ...you haven't contacted the protecting administrator.
You may request a protection reduction below if...
- ...you want to change the protection level of a template or module from full protection to template protection. You may add the request to this page without having to discuss it with the protecting administrator first.
- ...you need to remove creation protection from a location where no page exists (redlinked pages) after a draft version of the intended article is prepared beforehand and ready to be published.
- ...you are proposing a trial reduction in protection for a page that has been protected for several years, provided the proposal is supported by evidence such as talk page activity, page views, page traffic, number of watchers, frequency of edit requests, and prior history of vandalism.
- ...the protecting administrator is inactive or has not responded to you in several days.
If you cannot locate your request, make sure to check the request archives to see if it's been moved there. Only requests that have been recently answered will still be listed here.

Temporary semi-protection: No longer necessary. to allow unregistered and newly registered users to edit this page – Gasgas11 Talk! Watch! 03:52, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Gasgas11: you are required to ask the protecting admin, if they are active, about the protection first before posting here. - The Bushranger One ping only 04:02, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
- Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 04:08, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Not done. Failure to read instructions, and newly registered users are perfectly capable of using WP:Edit Request Wizard to propose changes. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 05:28, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Requests for adminship
Temporary extended-confirmed protection: No longer necessary. Because I nominated myself for adminship. – Gasgas11 Talk! Watch! 04:39, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Not done. You are not eligible to run for adminship, so there is no reason for you to edit this page. -- asilvering (talk) 04:44, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
Current requests for edits to a protected page
Please add an edit request to the talk page of the protected page before adding an edit request here
Requests for specific edits should be made on the talk page of the protected article. You can create an edit request below only if the talk page is also protected, preventing you from adding a request there.
- You may add the appropriate template (
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}) to the article's talk page if you would like to request an edit be made. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - For edit requests being made due to the editor having a conflict of interest with the article subject (see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}template should be used instead of the others listed above. - Requests to move pages that are currently move-protected should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not on this page.
- This page is not for holding discussions regarding content. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit that you wish to be performed.
Otherwise, this is the correct place to use in order to add an edit request if you are unable to add one to the article's talk page. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to properly add a request.
2026 Iran war
I would like to request that the part where it says 30 Kurdish security forces being killed being removed as the source doesn’t say that much was killed and any online new sources also doesn’t mention that many members of the KRG/KRSC security forces died from the conflict, if it did happen then better sources will be needed to back it up and the current source doesn’t — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-16036-17 (talk) 20:00, 13 March 2026 (UTC)
Note: This concerns the infobox. I found a source saying "Strikes on PMF bases in Iraq kill at least 30" but this refers to specific strikes this week and is not an aggregate figure. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 19:53, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Note: I have found a source that says At least 112 killed in US-Israel attacks on Kurdistan province in Iran, with 969 injured
. Probably the article could be updated with these numbers. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:47, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
2026 Iran war
In the infobox, change:
to
The explanatory note only includes the sinking of IRIS Dena, which was near the totality of naval losses a week ago but the claimed losses have now substantially expanded. This would also bring the treatment of naval losses much more in line with aviation losses.
An alternate (in my opinion uglier) option would be:
- 104 sailors killed, 32 injured off the coast of Sri Lanka.[2]

2026 Iran war
Citation 661 does not support claim that North Korea supported the attacks by US and Israel and appears to state the exact opposite.
The US and Israeli attacks were supported at least in part by (...) North Korea [661]. ~2026-16243-72 (talk) 16:16, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Not done. This seems to be a misreading of the content which says The US and Israeli attacks were supported at least in part by [a list of countries not including North Korea]
and goes on to say,while being implicitly or explicitly opposed by [a list of countries including North Korea]
. That is, North Korea opposed the attacks. — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 00:04, 15 March 2026 (UTC)- Woops, that is correct, thank you. ~2026-16322-59 (talk) 04:02, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
2026 Iran war
Please consider reviewing the article title. The United States has not formally declared war on Iran, and the terminology “war” may be premature or imprecise. A title such as “2026 Iran conflict” or similar may better reflect the current status unless reliable sources widely adopt “2026 Iran war.” Morphicz (talk) 21:38, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
Not done. The current title is the result of a discussion at which there was a very strong consensus to call this a "war," as most sources provided are doing
. Any further change to the article title would need a new discussion (which would be restricted to extended confirmed users). Malcolmxl5 (talk) 23:53, 14 March 2026 (UTC)- Page moves are also out of scope on this page en generale.
Requesting immediate archiving... —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 03:57, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
