===[[User:Spraycan Willy/sig]]===
Please protect my signature from being altered. {{User:Spraycan Willy/sig}} 16:23, 30 September 2006 (BST)
:Done.--{{User:The General/sig}} 16:52, 30 September 2006 (BST)

===Protection from Moves===
*[[User:Thari|Thari]] + talk page
*[[User:MrAushvitz|MrAushvitz]] + talk page
*[[User:Steel Laser|Steel Laser]] + talk page

They have all been moved a shitload lately.--{{User:Gage/sig}} 02:12, 30 September 2006 (BST)
:Hmmm, Gage, to prevent furture damage perhaps we should make "Back-Ups" of important and sensitive pages? The vandals ''are'' getting more and more sophisticated. They might make a change we ''can't'' fix.--[[User:Canuhearmenow|Canuhearmenow]] <sup>[[Witch_Burners|Hunt!]]</sup> 02:20, 30 September 2006 (BST)
::Honestly, I don't think that is possible unless they were a mod or a bureaucrat.--{{User:Gage/sig}} 02:23, 30 September 2006 (BST)
:::It's possible. It happened yesterday on Wikipedia. --[[User:Gold Blade|Gold Blade]] 02:25, 30 September 2006 (BST)
::::Thats what I'm talking about. They might Hack Mod status and wreck havoc, we need a fail-safe system.--[[User:Canuhearmenow|Canuhearmenow]] <sup>[[Witch_Burners|Hunt!]]</sup> 02:26, 30 September 2006 (BST)
:::::Hack Mod status? No. They made it so any attempt to edit the page edited another page, including moves and deletion. --{{User:Gold Blade/signature}}
::::::Hmmm, those this count towards "Significant Work on the Wiki?" helping come up with the idea to make back-up files? I can smell the Mod status already... Smells like... Like... Gold.--[[User:Canuhearmenow|Canuhearmenow]] <sup>[[Witch_Burners|Hunt!]]</sup> 02:34, 30 September 2006 (BST)
:::::::What about mine? --[[User:Gold Blade|Gold Blade]]<sup>[[UDWiki:Moderation/Promotions#Gold Blade|Abstain!]]</sup> 02:36, 30 September 2006 (BST)
::::::::Gold All around!--[[User:Canuhearmenow|Canuhearmenow]] <sup>[[Witch_Burners|Hunt!]]</sup> 02:38, 30 September 2006 (BST)

Done. {{User:Xoid/sig}} 04:45, 30 September 2006 (BST)

===[[User:HerrStefantheGreat]]===
My friend has left UD for good and I think his pages should be protected just in case he ever wants to come back in the future. [[User:Krazy Monkey|Cheeseman]] <sup>[[Project Welcome|W!]][[The Anti-Smurf Brigade|ASB]][[User_Talk:Krazy Monkey|Talk]]</sup> 19:13, 23 September 2006 (BST)
:Um, I really see no reason to protect this. If he comes back he comes back. If he doesn't he doesn't. His user page won't be deleted whatever happens. --{{User:Brizth/sig}} 22:01, 23 September 2006 (BST)

===[[UDWiki:Moderation/Policy Discussion/Combative External Links|Combative External Links]]===
Just another heads-up. The voting period has ended on this policy. -- [[User:Alan Watson|Alan Watson]] <sup>[[User_talk:Alan_Watson|Talk]] · [[Malton Telephone|MalTel]]</sup> 21:54, 23 September 2006 (BST)
:Done. --{{User:Brizth/sig}} 22:01, 23 September 2006 (BST)

===Wanker===
It may be a little too much work, but... I think all the pages under 
[http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Category:The_Wanker%27s_Alternate_Accounts this category] should be protected.--{{User:Thari/sig}} 22:07, 22 September 2006 (BST)
:All protected - wanker template has been modified to reflect that the pages are and should be protected. --{{User:Darth Sensitive/Sig}} 04:15, 23 September 2006 (BST)
::Nice work, thanks.--{{User:Thari/sig}} 06:02, 23 September 2006 (BST)

===[[Template:Locationblock]]===
Also [[Template:Locationblockmerge]] and [[Template:Multiblock Structure]].
No modification needed. If someone breaks theese templates, he will crash every location page and that's not cool.--{{User:Thari/sig}} 15:54, 22 September 2006 (BST)
:Protectionated by [[User:Xoid|Xoid]].--{{User:Thari/sig}} 22:07, 22 September 2006 (BST)
::I wish I had seen this.  These templates need to remain unprotected, especially since I just became aware of a bug and can no longer fix it!  If they DO get messed up, revering is NOT a problem for any decently skilled wiki user. --{{User:Mia Kristos/sig}} 23:28, 22 September 2006 (BST)
:::Yeah, but recaching the pages is a killer on the server. That's not something I want to see. Besides, it's talk pages are there for a reason; just place a "please make this alteration" message on the talk page and I'll get around to it. Or you can bug another mod if you wish. Despite whatever Odd said, doing that sort of stuff ''is'' in the job description. {{User:Xoid/sig}} 10:58, 23 September 2006 (BST)

===[[User:Jedaz/Sandbox/Sig]]===
Actualy it's an uprotection request belive it or not. I wish to update some links in my signature (some free advertising for my friend) so it's good if I can actually alter the page, you can protect it again after I've altered them if you want to. Just let me know so I can place a protection request after I've changed them. Thanks. - {{User:Jedaz/Sandbox/Sig}} 08:46, 22 September 2006 (BST)
:Unprotected.--{{User:The General/sig}} 10:30, 22 September 2006 (BST)
:Technically, unless it's going to be needing frequent modification you're just supposed to tap a moderator on the shoulder and say, "Hey you, fix that!" instead of going through M/PT. {{User:Xoid/sig}} 18:19, 22 September 2006 (BST)

===[[User:Max Grivas/sig]]===
Seems like a good idea. --{{User:Max Grivas/sig}} 18:31, 21 September 2006 (BST)
:Protected. If you need it changed, message a moderator, or leave the request here (while we dont have a page for this right now). --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 19:20, 21 September 2006 (BST)
::Um, Hagnat, Max ''is'' a moderator. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 22:38, 21 September 2006 (BST)
:::erm... i completly forgot about that. --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 03:55, 23 September 2006 (BST)

===[[User:BobHammero/Sig]]===
See Hagnat's request. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 06:41, 21 September 2006 (BST)
:Already [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=protect done]. --{{User:Brizth/sig}} 08:30, 21 September 2006 (BST)

===[[User:Hagnat/sig]] and [[User:Hagnat/sig2]]===
i need these protected. And i suggest everyone who sign the same way to request it too. --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 02:43, 21 September 2006 (BST)
:Done (the first was already done). {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 06:41, 21 September 2006 (BST)

===[[UDWiki:Moderation/Policy_Discussion/Talk_Page_Spamming|Talk Page Spamming]]===
Yes, I know that I don't need to submit a formal request for Protection on a withdrawn policy but I figured I'd give you guys a heads up. -- [[User:Alan Watson|Alan Watson]] <sup>[[User_talk:Alan_Watson|Talk]] · [[Malton Telephone|MalTel]]</sup> 06:08, 20 September 2006 (BST)
:Done. {{User:Xoid/sig}} 06:25, 20 September 2006 (BST)

===[[User:Matthewfarenheit]]===
I won't come back. It wuold be cool that you protect it. Or I may have to vandalize 8 times? --{{User:Matthewfarenheit/Signature}} 21:18, 19 September 2006 (BST)
:Done. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 23:20, 19 September 2006 (BST)
::Should his [[User:Matthewfarenheit/Signature|sig]], [[User:Matthewfarenheit/Suggestions|suggestions]], [[User:Matthewfarenheit/Sandbox|sandbox]], and [[User:Matthewfarenheit/Navigation|nav bar]] be protected too? --{{User:Darth Sensitive/Sig}} 01:39, 20 September 2006 (BST)
:::Done. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 02:00, 20 September 2006 (BST)

===Demotion pages===
[[M/DM]], [[UDWiki:Moderation/Demotions]], and [[UDWiki:Moderation/Demotions/Archive]]

These should only be editable by Moderators. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 06:57, 19 September 2006 (BST)
:Done. How about you get the newly created talk page for M/DM while you're reading this Bob? [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Talk:M/DM&redirect=no here]. {{User:Xoid/sig}} 09:05, 19 September 2006 (BST)
::Done. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 09:08, 19 September 2006 (BST)

===[[Template:Lastupdate]]===
Protect from moving, but allow anyone to edit; to insure that new info gets put up ASAP. {{User:Nubis/sig}} 23:53, 9 September 2006 (BST)
:doooone. --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 23:57, 9 September 2006 (BST)

===[[Template:comannounce]]===
For a template on the Main Page, this is unprotected.  Seems like it should be to me. {{User:Nubis/sig}} 23:50, 9 September 2006 (BST)
:protected. --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 23:53, 9 September 2006 (BST)
:This is kinda annoying considering most of the time it isn't updated very frequently (like now), and it hasn't seemed to be the target of much vanadalisim. It seems more trouble than its worth to stop regular users. {{user:ybbor/sig}} 23:06, 15 September 2006 (BST)
::True. It's kinda pointless if the [[Template:Lastupdate]] is unprotected anyway. Currently it is just annoying and brings more work to mods (what we traditionally hate...) and doesn't offer that much protection from Main Page vandals. Anyone else has any opinion? --{{User:Brizth/sig}} 23:14, 15 September 2006 (BST)
:::I have never seen either template vandalized, and less work for us is always good. {{User:BobHammero/Sig}} 00:02, 16 September 2006 (BST)
::::Well, it's unprotected from editing now. I left the move protection though. --{{User:Brizth/sig}} 00:09, 16 September 2006 (BST)

===Old Policy Discussion Pages===
*[[UDWiki:Moderation/Policy Discussion/Group Pages|Group Pages]]
*[[UDWiki:Moderation/Policy Discussion/Offensive Language|Offensive Language/Interaction (was Offensive People)]]
*[[UDWiki:Moderation/Policy Discussion/archive|General archive]]
*[[UDWiki:Moderation/Policy Discussion/Archive|Older general archive]]
and their talk pages, of course.

And i think that all Archieved Policies should be protected too. --[[User:Hagnat|overlord hagnat]] <sup>[[Moderation|mod]]</sup> 21:22, 7 September 2006 (BST)
:Protected.  The links provided at least, as I'm a lazy old codger and can't be bothered to do anything without a direct link shoved up me arse.  I'm keeping the talk pages open however, so people have a place to put any questions regarding the pages. {{User:Nubis/sig}} 21:00, 8 September 2006 (BST)

There. :) --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 21:21, 8 September 2006 (BST)
:I think that policies could be protected as soon as they are protected. Should we vote for this or can ''common sense'' work here ? --{{User:Hagnat/sig}} 21:21, 8 September 2006 (BST)
::Done, and put it in the Protections Scheduling Queue just to be official-like.  I doubt anyone would care. {{User:Nubis/sig}} 21:34, 8 September 2006 (BST)

===[[UDWiki:Specific Case Editing Guidelines]]===
Because ''you know you want to''.--{{User:Thari/sig}} 04:47, 6 September 2006 (BST)
