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.

Second Battle of Krinks

I thought there might be a little edit war coming on this page, due to the drama surrounding the last one. I mentioned something to DDR here about keeping an eye on it,.... and not that long after, I've noticed it's well on it's way again. I'd like to possably see this page protected, pending the result of this case, to see if a neutral third party is assigned to the task, and if so, that we could possably learn from the case, and do so for this page as well. -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 15:54, 11 April 2010 (BST)

It's too bad the vote over on Deletions will take 2 weeks, these pages belong on his userspace and this would solve all the drama. The arbitration case in progress is about certain edits to the page, while it's better if we dispute the entire page all together. Move both pages to his userspace and deem any further attempts in the mainspace as vandalism. NPOV simply isn't going to work. Of course, that's just my opinion. --Thadeous Oakley 16:48, 11 April 2010 (BST)

I wish I could just protect the entire wiki and be done with assbaggery like this. 18:33, 11 April 2010 (BST)

So, what do you suggest we do to prevent the drama llama from shiting all over this industrial fan? -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 05:42, 12 April 2010 (BST)

Honestly? I'd stop people like you making cases like this when they aren't necessary. This doesn't need to be protected, for a number of very valid reasons, namely the fact that it's still a work in progress before it gets moved, it's not bound to any arbies cases (yet) and Cornholioo deserves to redeem to page in the hope it might actually be worthy of the mainspace. --

As DDR. These pages have already being or been processed at A/VB, A/DE and A/A. No need for more admin sections. --Thadeous Oakley 13:03, 12 April 2010 (BST)

I understand full good and well, and the reason I submitted it seems to have subsided. Thanks for, at the very least, hearing it out. -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 20:28, 12 April 2010 (BST)

Protected to prevent an inevitable edit war between Infrastructure and Cornholioo. -- Cheese 13:49, 16 April 2010 (BST)

This is dumb and a half... If Zyckde doesn't want his name on there he should take Cornholioo to arbitration. It isn't Infastructures place to enforce something so stupid, so the page should be unprotected, Infrastructure and Zyckde told the correct channels to go through if they want the name taken off, and if they refuse to go to arbies over it and persist the edit war, they should be taken to a/vb... The page is gonna get moved in a few days to the userspace anyways ffs, stop forcing Cornholioo off his "own" pages cause retards can't understand how this wiki works... --

 

 

 

 

14:49, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Unprotected due to this whole mess being fucking stupid. 15:06, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Also I've contaced Zyckde and Infrastructure concerning a) the page's impending move and b) the correct course of action to take should the move not occur. 15:12, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Thanks, I know it isn't the easy way out but there isn't anything to say Cornholioo shouldn't be able to edit his own page because all it takes is for one idiot to start (or even threaten) an edit war to have the page protected. I feeel sorry for the poor guy... --

 

 

 

 

15:20, 16 April 2010 (BST)

You don't really though. 15:25, 16 April 2010 (BST)

I do in this instance... He's an idiot. But having a jackass refuse to have his name mentioned on a page involving a 'war' with his group... and that being the grounds for the second one of his page's protection... bah. --

 

 

 

 

15:27, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Yeah, the protection was unnecessary, but so is most of what both sides are doing here. It's petty all round. 15:29, 16 April 2010 (BST)

I wasn't around for all the umbrella garbage at the same time last year, but surely this has eclipsed it... at leased in an a/a point of view. --

 

 

 

 

15:36, 16 April 2010 (BST)

They aren't his pages. They're in the main space and are community pages until they are moved to his user space. He hasn't requested for them to be moved, they haven't been moved, they're not his pages. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 16:22, 16 April 2010 (BST)

For the love of christ,.... can we just protect it already? -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 21:13, 18 April 2010 (BST)

No. 21:14, 18 April 2010 (BST)

Is this a request to protect my talk page? :S--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:15, 18 April 2010 (BST)

I think so. I considered it briefly but I like it when you reply to me harassing you. 21:16, 18 April 2010 (BST)

But I reply on your talk page. Template:Tonue.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:17, 18 April 2010 (BST)

Done. —Aichon— 20:38, 12 April 2010 (BST)

Thanks! -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 20:44, 12 April 2010 (BST)

Scheduled?

If not, it should be.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 20:13, 8 April 2010 (BST)

I seem to recall that there are actually dozens of suggestions which aren't protected. Anyway, protected it. —Aichon— 21:01, 8 April 2010 (BST)

Hey Aichmeister, this should be moved into the Suggestion namespace... --

 

 

 

 

14:51, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Turns out there's actually several like this, and a glance at Humorous Suggestions reveals even more. Since these pages have some history (in the non-wiki sense) to them, and I wasn't around at the time, I'll have to read up on them when I have some time later today. —Aichon— 17:55, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Another talk page....

Who'd of thought I would have another one of these.... -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 04:14, 8 April 2010 (BST)

Protected ~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 04:56, 8 April 2010 (BST)

And another one...

This one to please... -Poodle of Doom^{M! T} 04:16, 8 April 2010 (BST)

Talk:Viva la revolution

The main group page is already protected, and has been for a while. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the talk page be as well?--~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 01:41, 6 April 2010 (BST)

Shockingly you are wrong. Colour me surprised. This page was protected to prevent a spate of page wiping a couple of years ago and never unprotected. There's no reason for it to still be protected and certainly no reason at all for the talk page to be locked. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 01:59, 6 April 2010 (BST)

Nah, no reason to see talk get protected too, main was only protected cause of vandalism. --

Protections Scheduling Queue

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

Note: The archive for Scheduled Protections can be found here.
