This page in a nutshell:
Editing or moving of a page can be restricted by administrators. As Wikipedia is built around the principle that anyone can edit it, this should only be done in certain situations.

Administrators
are able to
protect
a page to restrict editing or moving of that page, and remove such
protection
. Protection can be indefinite, or expire after a specified time.
Full protection
prevents editing by everyone except
administrators
. Fully protected media files cannot be overwritten by new uploads.
Semi-protection
prevents editing by unregistered contributors and contributors with accounts which are not
autoconfirmed
Creation protection
prevents a page (normally a previously
deleted
one) from being recreated (also known as "salting").
Move protection
protects the page solely from
moves
Upload protection
protects the file from
reupload
, does not protect the file page from editing.
Pending-changes protection
means edits are not visible to readers who are not logged in, until the edits are checked by a reviewer.
Any type of protection or unprotection may be requested at
Wikipedia:Requests for page protection
. Changes to a fully protected page should be proposed on the corresponding
talk page
, and carried out if they are uncontroversial or if there is
consensus
for them.
Except in the case of
office actions
(see
below
), administrators may unprotect a page if the reason for its protection no longer applies, a reasonable period has elapsed, and there is no consensus that continued protection is necessary. Contacting the administrator who originally protected the page is advised in unclear circumstances. A log of protections and unprotections is available at
Special:Log/protect
Types of protection
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Full protection
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Policy
shortcuts
WP:FULL
WP:GOLDLOCK
A fully protected page can be edited only by administrators. The protection may be for a specified time, or may be indefinite.
Modifications to a fully protected page can be proposed on its
talk page
, or in another appropriate forum for discussion. Administrators can make changes to the protected article reflecting
consensus
. Placing the
editprotected
template on the talk page will draw the attention of administrators for implementing uncontroversial changes.
Content disputes
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
On pages that are experiencing
edit warring
, temporary full protection can force the parties to discuss their edits on the talk page, where they can reach
consensus
. Isolated incidents of edit warring, and persistent edit warring by particular users, may be better addressed by
blocking
, so as not to prevent normal editing of the page by others.
Policy
shortcut
WP:PREFER
When protecting a page because of a content dispute, administrators normally protect the current version, except where the current version contains content that clearly violates content policies, such as
vandalism
copyright violations
, or
defamation of living persons
. Since protecting the most current version sometimes rewards edit warring by establishing a contentious revision, administrators may also revert to an old version of the page predating the edit war if such a clear point exists. Pages that are protected because of content disputes should not be edited except to make changes which are uncontroversial or for which there is clear
consensus
(see above).
Administrators should not protect or unprotect a page to further their own positions in content disputes.
Vandalism
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Policy
shortcut
WP:NO-PREEMPT
Pre-emptive full protection of articles is contrary to the open nature of Wikipedia. Brief periods of full protection are used in rare cases when a large number of autoconfirmed accounts are used to make a sustained vandalism attack on an article. Persistent vandalism, or the possibility of future vandalism for highly trafficked articles, rarely provides a basis for full-protection.
Semi-protection
is used for articles, such as
Jesus
, that have a pattern of heavy sustained vandalism.
"History only" review
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
If a deleted page is undergoing
deletion review
, only administrators are normally capable of viewing the former content of the page. If they feel it would benefit the discussion to allow other users to view the page content, administrators may
restore
the page, blank it or replace the contents with
TempUndelete
or a similar notice, and fully protect the page to prevent further editing. The previous contents of the page are then accessible to non-admins via the
page history
Protected generic image names
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Generic image names such as
File:map.jpg
or
File:Photo.jpg
are tagged with
Protected generic image name
and fully protected to prevent new versions being uploaded.

Wikipedia:Rough guide to semi-protection
Semi-protection prevents edits from
unregistered users
(IP addresses), as well as edits from any account that is not
autoconfirmed
(is at least four days old and has ten or more edits to Wikipedia) or
confirmed
Such users can request edits to a semi-protected page by proposing them on its talk page, using the
Edit semi-protected
template if necessary to gain attention. If the page in question and its talk page are
both
protected please make your edit request at
Wikipedia:Request for edit
instead. New users may also request the
confirmed
user right by visiting
Requests for permissions
Guidance for administrators
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Administrators may apply
indefinite
semi-protection to pages which are subject to heavy and persistent
vandalism
or violations of
content policy
(such as
biographies of living persons
neutral point of view
). Semi-protection should
not
be used as a pre-emptive measure against vandalism that has not yet occurred, nor should it be used solely to prevent editing by unregistered and newly registered users, nor to privilege registered users over unregistered users in content disputes.
In addition, administrators may apply
temporary
semi-protection on pages that are:
Subject to significant but temporary vandalism or disruption (for example, due to
media attention
) when
blocking
individual users is not a feasible option.
Subject to
edit-warring
where
all
parties involved are unregistered or new editors (i.e., in cases in which full-protection would otherwise be applied). This does
not
apply when autoconfirmed users are involved.
Subject to
vandalism
or
edit-warring
where unregistered editors are engaging in
IP-hopping
by using different computers, obtaining new addresses by using
dynamic IP
allocation, or other address changing schemes such as
IP address spoofing
Article discussion pages, when they have been subject to persistent disruption. Such protection should be used sparingly because it prevents unregistered and newly registered users from participating in discussions. If the page in question and its talk page are
both
protected please make your edit request at
Wikipedia:Request for edit
instead.
Talk pages of blocked IP addresses that are being used for continued inappropriate editing, including repeated abuse of the
unblock
template, or continued uncivil or offensive remarks. The protection should be timed so as to not exceed the length of the block. Although administrators may also choose to change the block settings to block the user from editing their talk page instead, since there is no need to synchronize the block period with the page protection time period with this method.
Today's featured article
may be semi-protected just like any other article. But since this article is subject to sudden spurts of vandalism during certain times of day, administrators should semi-protect it for brief periods in most instances. For the former guideline, see
Wikipedia:Main Page featured article protection
Creation protection
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Policy
shortcuts
WP:SALT
WP:PDP
WP:BLUELOCK
Administrators can prevent the creation of a page through the protection interface. This is useful for articles that have been
deleted
but repeatedly recreated by an editor. Such protection is case-sensitive. A list of protected titles may be found at
Special:Protectedtitles
(see also
historical lists
).
Pre-emptive restrictions on new article titles are instituted through the
title blacklist
system, which allows for more flexible protection with support for substrings and regular expressions.
Pages that have been creation-protected are sometimes referred to as "
salted
". Contributors wishing to re-create a salted title with more appropriate content should contact an
administrator
or use the
deletion review
process.
Move protection
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Policy
shortcuts
WP:MOVP
WP:GREENLOCK
Move-protected pages cannot be moved to a new title except by an administrator. Move protection is commonly applied to:
Pages subject to persistent page-move
vandalism
Pages subject to a page-name dispute.
Highly visible pages that have no reason to be moved, such as the
Administrators' noticeboard
Fully protected pages are also move-protected.
As with full protection, administrators should avoid favoring one name over another, and protection should not be considered an endorsement of the current name. An obvious exception to this rule is when pages are protected due to page-move vandalism. When move protection is applied during a requested move discussion the page should be protected at the location it was at when the move request was started.
Upload protection
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Policy
shortcuts
WP:PURPLELOCK
WP:UPLOAD-P
Upload protected files cannot be replaced with new versions except by an administrator. Upload protection does not protect file pages from editing. Upload protection may be applied by an administrator to:
Files subject to persistent upload
vandalism
Files subject to a dispute between editors.
Files that should not be replaced, such as images used in the interface or transcluded to the main page.
As with full protection, administrators should avoid favoring one file version over another, and protection should not be considered an endorsement of the current file version. An obvious exception to this rule is when files are protected due to upload vandalism.

WP:PPINDEF
WP:REDLOCK
Some areas of Wikipedia are permanently protected by the
MediaWiki
software. The
MediaWiki namespace
, which defines parts of the site interface, is fully protected; it is impossible for administrators to remove this protection. In addition, user CSS and JavaScript pages, such as
User:Example/monobook.css
and
User:Example/cologneblue.js
, are automatically fully protected. Only accounts that are associated with these pages or administrators are able to edit them. This protection applies to any user subpage with a ".css" or ".js" extension, whether an equivalent MediaWiki skin exists or not. Administrators may modify these pages, for example, to remove a user script that has been used in an inappropriate way.
In addition to the hard-coded protection, the following are usually permanently protected:
Pages that are very visible, such as the
Main Page
or
File:Wiki.png
Pages that should not be modified for copyright or legal reasons, such as the
general disclaimer
or the
local copy of the site copyright license
Pages that are very frequently
transcluded
, such as
tl
or
ambox
, to prevent
vandalism
or
denial of service
attacks. This includes images or templates used in other highly visible or frequently transcluded pages. See
Wikipedia:High-risk templates
for more information.
Files are indefinitely move-protected, though
file movers
and administrators may still move them.
Office actions

Policy

WP:BLACKLOCK
As outlined at
Wikipedia:Office actions
, pages may be protected by
Wikimedia Foundation
staff in response to issues such as copyright or libel.
Such actions override community consensus
. Administrators should
not
edit or unprotect such pages without permission from Wikimedia Foundation staff. A list of pages under the scrutiny of the Wikimedia Foundation can be found

Cascading protection
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Shortcuts
WP:CASCADE
WP:CASCADING
Cascading protection fully protects a page, and extends that full protection
automatically
to any page that is
transcluded
onto the protected page, whether directly or indirectly. This includes templates, images and other media that are hosted on English Wikipedia. Files stored on Commons will not be protected by cascading protection, and need to be temporarily uploaded to English Wikipedia or protected at Commons. Cascading protection:
Should be used only to prevent
vandalism
when placed on particularly visible pages such as the
Main Page
Is available only for fully protected pages; it is disabled for semi-protected pages as it represents a security flaw. See
Bugzilla:8796
for more information.
Is not instantaneous; it may be several hours before it takes effect. See
Bugzilla:18483
for more information.
Should generally not be applied directly to templates, as it will not protect transclusions inside
includeonly
tags or transclusions that depend on template parameters, but
will
protect the template's
documentation subpage
. See
the "Templates" section
below for alternatives.

Wikipedia:High-risk templates
and
Wikipedia:Template documentation
Highly visible templates which are used on an extremely large number of pages or substituted with great frequency are particularly vulnerable to vandalism, as vandalism to the template may introduce vandalism to hundreds of other pages. Therefore, they are frequently semi- or fully protected based on the degree of visibility, type of use, content, and other factors.
Semi and fully protected templates should normally have the
documentation
template. It loads the unprotected
/doc
page, so that non-admins and IP-users can edit the documentation, categories and interwiki links. It also automatically adds
pp-template
to protected templates, which displays a small padlock in the top right corner and categorizes the template as a protected template. Only manually add
pp-template
to protected templates that don't use
documentation
(mostly the stub and flag templates).
Cascading protection should generally not be applied directly to templates, as it will not protect transclusions inside
includeonly
tags or transclusions that depend on template parameters, but
will
protect the template's
documentation subpage
. Instead, consider any of the following:
If the set of subtemplates is static (even if large), protect them using normal protection mechanisms.
If the full set of subtemplates is transcluded whenever the main template is trancluded, transclude the main template on
Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items
or a similar page.
If the set of subtemplates is unbounded, use
MediaWiki:Titleblacklist
to protect all subtemplates using a particular naming format (as is done for
editnotice templates
and subtemplates of
Template:TFA title
).
Note: All
editnotice templates
(except those in userspace) are already protected via
MediaWiki:Titleblacklist
(which can, however, be overridden by
account creators

WP:UPROT
WP:UPPROT
User pages
and subpages are sometimes protected at the user's request, or if there is evidence of vandalism or disruption. User talk pages are rarely protected, and are semi-protected for short durations only in the most severe cases of vandalism from IP users.
Users whose talk page is semi-protected for lengthy or indefinite periods of time should have an unprotected user talk subpage linked conspicuously from their main talk page to allow good faith comments from non-autoconfirmed users.
Deceased users
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
See also:
Wikipedia:Deceased Wikipedians/Guidelines
In the event of the confirmed death of a user, his or her user page, but not talk page, should be fully protected.
Retired users
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Retired users may have their user pages protected upon request. Talk pages of retired editors are not usually protected except with limited duration to deal with vandalism. A user's request to have his or her own talk page protected due to retirement is not a sufficient rationale to protect the page.
Blocked users
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
Blocked users' user pages and user talk pages should not ordinarily be protected, as this interferes with the user's ability to contest their block through the normal process. In extreme cases of abuse, such as abuse of the
unblock
template, the talk page may be protected for a short time to prevent abusive editing. When required, it should be implemented for a brief period which should not exceed the length of the block, whichever is shorter. Consider disabling the user's talk page access via the
block
feature instead. In cases where the user has been blocked indefinitely, they should be informed of off-wiki ways to appeal their block, such as the
unblock-en-l mailing list
or
ban appeals subcommittee of the Arbitration Committee
. Confirmed socks of registered users should be dealt with in accordance with
Wikipedia:Sockpuppetry
; their pages are not normally protected.
Sandboxes
ସମ୍ପାଦନା
See also:
Wikipedia:About the Sandbox
Wikipedia:Sandbox
and other sandboxes should also not ordinarily be protected since their purpose is to let new users test and experiment with
wiki syntax
. These pages are automatically cleaned every 12 hours, although they are frequently overwritten by other testing users much faster than that. Those who do use the sandboxes for malicious purposes, or to violate policies such as
no personal attacks
civility
, and
copyrights
, should instead be warned and/or blocked.
