Semi-protection if you kind (and if you're really bored, you can do all the associated UD[insert] templates, though there's lots of them). Also, there is also ample opportunity for doing semi-protections on pages like [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=protect&user=&page=Template%3AWiki+News&year=&month=-1 this].

===[[User:Iscariot]]===
*{{vndl|Iscariot}}
I'm sure it was requested, but can anyone find ''where''? I've checked the relevant [[A/PT]] archives and found nothing. It should have been  linked in the protection itself and logged here, or at the very least one of those. Yon, Ross, can either of you enlighten me? And assuming it's valid, should we perhaps protect [[User:Iscariot/Signature|his sig]] as well?
'''N.B.''' I am raising this on a relevant talk page instead of taking this straight to [[A/M]]. Because that's what good wiki users do, fucking '''''discuss''''' first. {{rolleyes}} {{User:Revenant/Sig}} 04:30, 2 May 2011 (BST)
:Mmmm, don't know. I can't find any specific things either, Yon may have protected it by accidentally thinking that Iscariot wanted his talk page ''and'' his userpage protected. Either that or he did it whilst protecting a lot of other pages that were protected before SA's "coup" and were unprotected upon undeletion. And thanks for being the bigger man and discussing it here, I don't know WHAT would happen if I had to deal with it on A/M! -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig4}} 05:42, 2 May 2011 (BST)
::Or it could have been when Izzy requested his page deleted and Cheese and Thad had a QQ and had it undeleted cause he didn't request it ''on'' the wiki, so Yon thought the next best thing was protection? Who knows hey, izzys page has been mangled so bad I just don't know, might as well wait for Yon -- {{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sig4}} 05:45, 2 May 2011 (BST)
:::Mmm, with Iscariot on indefinite wiki-break it's not really time-critical, but definitely worth taking the time to review. {{User:Revenant/Sig}} 06:45, 2 May 2011 (BST)

====If I may suggest====
In the interests of efficiency, why not just slap a unique category on 'em, say [[:Category:Old Suggestions]] or similar, and then link that here and let us know when you're done? That way we can also easily move 'em to the correct namespace. This ''is'' one of the things categories excel at. {{User:Revenant/Sig}} 23:21, 3 May 2011 (BST)

This page is for the request of page protection within the Urban Dead wiki. Due to philosophical concerns, the ability to protect pages is restricted to system operators. As such, regular users will need to request a protection from the system operators. For consistency and accountability, system operators also adhere to the guidelines listed here.

Guidelines for Protection Requests

All Protection Requests must contain the following information in order to be considered:

  • A link to the page in question. Preferably bolded for visibility.
  • A reason for protection. This should be short and to the point.
  • A signed datestamp. This can be easily done by adding ~~~~ to the end of your request.

Any protection request that does not contain these three pieces of information will not be considered, and will be removed by a system operator.

Once the protection request has been entered, the request shall remain on this page, where it will be reviewed by a member of the Sysop team, and action taken accordingly. Once action has been taken, the system operator will add a comment including a signed datestamp detailing his course of action, and the request will be moved into the Recent Actions queue, where it will remain for one week. After that week is up, it may be moved to the archive (see navigation box below). If the Protection has been granted, the system operator should place the tag {{protect}} on the page(s) that have been protected.

In the event of a system operator requesting a Protection, all the previous points will apply, excepting that a system operator other than the requestor shall review and take action on the request.

Pages in the Protection Queue may already be scheduled protections. For a list of scheduled protections, see here.


Protection Queue

Sacred Ground Policy

Sacred Ground Policy but NOT the /People and /Groups subpages. Those I'd like to leave open for people to add to. Basically, I'd like to protect the policy as I wrote it and block watering-down and meddling should I be re-permabanned or if I get hit by a truck or simply stop coming by. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 02:01, 31 May 2011 (BST)

Also leave the corresponding talk page open if possible. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 02:07, 31 May 2011 (BST)
I'mma refuse for two reasons. 1) it's more of a community page now, like other tactics. 2) it's got portions for general user editing on the main page. --Karekmaps 2.0?! 05:01, 31 May 2011 (BST)
Can I reply, or is that forbidden? Anyway, taking the risk... 1.) It might be a dangerous precedent to say a page is community property because the owner can't access it. I never gave permission as such, so I don't understand how it can just... be that way. History also directly supports my case, as McZeds was reverted and protected as per my request while I was still permabanned. McZed's was open to user editing and was around long after I left, but it was still protected. And... 2.) The portions for user editing are actually on the /People and /Groups sub-pages. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 06:37, 31 May 2011 (BST)
The bigger issue is it was a public policy and the community continued on with it after your absence. It's more of a representation of the game then an owned idea. --Karekmaps 2.0?! 07:31, 31 May 2011 (BST)
I done been robbed! :O Seriously, though, in my personal estimation (just to explain the request) it's complete the way it is, as a policy, and I didn't see the need to keep it open for people to add, say, anti-SGP policies and various errata. But whatevs. It's there for people to enjoy the benefit of, just didn't want it watered down and obfuscated at some future date. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 18:35, 31 May 2011 (BST)

Even if this was fulfilled I'm quite sure the [edit] sections of the subpages you have there will disappear on the main page even though the subpages aren't protected... I'd recommend adding a workaround edit button if the protection goes through. -- ϑanceϑanceevolution 06:43, 31 May 2011 (BST)

I'd have no problem with that. Wiki rustiness causes me to miss factors like that. -- ™ & © Amazing, INC. All rights reserved. Replying constitutes acceptance of our Terms of Service. 06:45, 31 May 2011 (BST)
