UDWiki:Administration/Protections/Archive/2011 06
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.

UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/DanceDanceRevolution vs Boxy
I've withdrawn my case now, so it's a scheduled. --
12:16, 8 June 2010 (BST)
- Done. —Aichon— 12:28, 8 June 2010 (BST)
- Since when is one side unilaterally withdrawing, to shop for a better result elsewhere on the wiki, enough to end a case? -- boxy talk • teh rulz 22:43 8 June 2010 (BST)
- He was the one who brought the case, and arbitration had not yet started. I agree that he's shopping around, but it's his prerogative to withdraw (and I think it's a BS precedent that people can be forced into arbitration). If you'd like to pursue the issue, you're welcome to do so, and you'd have no objections from me (nor would I take offense) if the case were unprotected and brought back up for arbitration. —Aichon— 00:45, 9 June 2010 (BST)
- Iscariot did it all the time, and while my actions have been very much like his in the past, the raw truth was Arbies was my second choice and getting a simple vote of sysop confidence was my first. As it happens, my first choice came second. -- 02:24, 9 June 2010 (BST)
- Plus, in line with "sysop opinion" Misanthropy gave his own solution which I accepted but you ignored in way to allow Jorm some space to argue. Not my bag, sorry. -- 02:25, 9 June 2010 (BST)
- Man you know you've jumped the shark when you have to compare yourself to Iscariot as a defence. I pray that day never comes for me. Cyberbob Talk 02:32, 9 June 2010 (BST)

UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/Poodle of doom vs DanceDanceRevolution
This needs protecting. While I'm here, I found a few messys (and made a few of my own) so in this request I am adding UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/The Entire Wiki Community vs Cornhoolio which needs to be protected and moved to UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/The Entire Wiki Community vs Cornholioo cause Cheese got the "oo"s wrong, and UDWiki:Administration/Arbitration/Poodle of Doom vs DanceDanceRevolution needs to be deleted (cause I made a messy with the capitalisation with Pod's name) as a crit 7 by proxy/ish? --

Talk Page
Just want my talk page permantly protected.... again. -Poodle of DoomM! 
T 22:28, 31 May 2010 (BST)
- No. Unless you plan on leaving here. As long you edit on this wiki, people should be able to contact you. --
Thadeous Oakley 22:39, 31 May 2010 (BST)
- Also make up your mind.
22:40, 31 May 2010 (BST) - Also, something happening permanently again is a paradox. Permanent only happens once. --Thadeous Oakley 22:50, 31 May 2010 (BST)
- Also make up your mind.
- Thad is right. Without a specific and compelling reason, unless you're going to be inactive for an extended period or banned once again, limiting access to your talk page is not standard procedure. I don't mean for this to sound rude, but perhaps you could merely make yourself a lower profile target? You've been doing a lot of things to draw attention to yourself recently (e.g. arbies case, back and forth on protections, self-imposed ban, posting rants, all in the last two weeks), which obviously will get reactions from people. If you don't want attention from others, don't move in such a public way and simply don't respond to comments made against you. I mean that as honest advice. —Aichon— 23:46, 31 May 2010 (BST)
- I'll take another fucking ban if I have too... though I was only planning on leaving. I have two more requests to make though before I leave again. I'm planning another gap in status, like the one I had shortly after I registered. So please lock the page... -Poodle of DoomM!

- You don't have to take a ban. We can protect your page for you just fine if you're going to be inactive (similar to Iscariot's). Being inactive is the important part. If you're still going to be editing around the wiki for your group though, it really shouldn't be protected. —Aichon— 03:05, 1 June 2010 (BST)
- One thing at a time. I am leaving the game/wiki for a while. The next step though is something I don't want any backlash on. I'm deleting my group, and all five hundred and twenty nine of it's subpages after this is sent through. Again, I don't want any whine ass bitching on my talk page from some pansy assed little bitch who doesn't like my decision. -Poodle of DoomM! T 03:26, 1 June 2010 (BST)
- Realistically, we can't protect your page until you're gone. Oh, and I should be able to get some of your pages today if you post the request soon.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 10:03, 1 June 2010 (BST)
- Fine... ban request first... and deletion second... I see how it is... I'll have someone contact you soon. -Poodle of DoomM! T 00:46, 2 June 2010 (BST)
- As I said, there's no need for a ban. Just inactivity. —Aichon— 02:35, 2 June 2010 (BST)
- Now, I can't very well request protection when I'm inactive can I? -Poodle of DoomM! T 02:43, 2 June 2010 (BST)
- You've already requested protection (that's what this is, after all). We'd honor it now, as we have with others in the past, but you're still active, so it wouldn't make sense to honor it yet. Once again, there's no need for a ban. —Aichon— 03:09, 2 June 2010 (BST)
