UDWiki:Administration/Protections/Archive/2013 Q1
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.

Voting on the policy has ended, so it should now be archivally protected. Thanks! Bob Moncrief EBD•W! 03:27, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
- I have already protected the page on March 18, but must have forgotten to cycle the request. Fixed. -- Spiderzed█ 16:06, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
UDWiki:Administration/Speedy Deletions
Removed the semiprotection after a new user highlighted it as an issue. Anyone care? --Rosslessness 00:38, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
- Certainly not from the wizard who did it. --Karekmaps 2.0?! 02:46, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
UDWiki:Administration/Demotions/Archive#Rosslessness
The header for Ross' demotion should be ===Rosslessness (2)=== . Also acceptable would be changing the header of his first demotion to ===Rosslessness (0)=== . ~ 06:50, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

UDWiki:Administration/Move Requests/Archive/2012 Q3, UDWiki:Administration/Move Requests/Archive/2012 Q4, UDWiki:Administration/Move Requests/Archive/2012 05 (someone missed this one), UDWiki:Administration/Protections/Archive/2012 Q4, UDWiki:Administration/Undeletions/Archive2012, UDWiki:Administration/Speedy Deletions/Archive/2012 Q4, UDWiki:Administration/Vandal Banning/Archive/2012 Q4, UDWiki:Administration/Deletions/Archive/2012 Q4.
Also, not sure how archiving of UDWiki:Administration/De-Escalations works? It seems to be in a different format, transcluded from the most recent archive. Can someone sort that out?
Thanks! Bob Moncrief EBD•W! 20:05, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- It's an old-style archive like we used to do in most places. You simply un-transclude it from the relevant admin page, create a new archive, and then transclude the new archive. It's done that way so that we can link to the entries immediately from A/VD without those links later breaking when we archive things. And I'll do all of these in just a sec. —Aichon— 21:07, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
