UDWiki:Administration/Protections
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. To submit a new scheduled protection, please visit here.

Shouldn't this The_Dead page be locked? Let The Dead rest.--

- It should be. Looks like I originally protected it in 2008, and then moved the page in 2018, which also moved the protection. Sorry about that; I've put the protection back up. -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:38, 27 October 2021 (UTC)
The page should not be protected, and should be accessible to edit as was decided in 2018.

Not this again. Sorry to step on your toes AHLG but I've unprotected it as per the 2018 request, which after much nail-pulling, finally provided a result. If the request here is functionally identical to the 2018 request, which at the moment it is, then the result should surely be the same. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION 02:57, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
