    Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.
    Shortcuts

    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.

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
    Shortcuts

    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.

    Power Rangers Samurai

    Unprotection: 14 years of protection with little vandalism or disruption. Thepharoah17 (talk) 03:30, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Note: pinging protecting admin User:Black Kite. BusterD (talk) 11:41, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Craniosacral Therapy

    Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because The article is disrespectful towards those who practice it. The article uses terms like pseudoscience and quackery. We go to school for these things and practice them in labs. We know firsthand what it can do, as well as, there are numerous peer-reviewed studies on pubmed that validate the practice as legitimate ....... . 2600:4041:1AB:3600:F415:3966:537:705D (talk) 16:16, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    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
    Shortcut

    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.

    The entire section PUBLICATIONS (central point of my bio) of the original first version has been deleted. Please RESTORE IT and confirm. Thank you. GoodKindandHappy (talk) 16:15, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    @GoodKindandHappy: An exhaustive list of works is meaningless, and that particular section was edited before it was removed to get rid of affiliate links. Declined on those grounds. (That isn't to say that we wouldn't entertain a more selective bibliography focusing on Kandorfer's more important works, but the Publications section as it existed at the time isn't acceptable.) —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:23, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
