UDWiki:Administration/Protections/Scheduling

Shortcut:
A/PT/S

This page will be used for users to request that pages falling into certain categories be protected as appropriate by a sysop without having to go through the protections page. A list of pages in the Scheduled Protections list is located here.

Protection Scheduling

Protection Scheduling requests should be requested in the same general format as Deletions. Votes will occur in the same general manner, and like deletion scheduling requests will be voted on for two (2) weeks, as judged by the initial datestamp. Valid votes are:

• Yea - Approval of Schedule Request
• Nay - Disapproval of Schedule Request

Remember that votes must be signed and datestamped (use ~~~~)

After the two weeks are up, if the page has reached at least a 50% majority in favour it is added to the Scheduled list. If the vote fails, it will be cycled as unsuccessful. The closed request can then get shifted to the Archive.

For older cases, please see the archive.
