:'''Note, permanently protected pages (visibility or legal reasons) are now listed at [[Wikipedia:List of permanently protected pages]].'''
[[Wikipedia:Administrators|Administrators]] have the ability to "protect" pages or images so that they cannot be modified except by other admins (the link "{{MediaWiki:Editthispage}}" is replaced by a link "{{MediaWiki:Viewsource}}" when viewed by non-admins). This ability is only to be used in limited circumstances.
This is a list of resources available that list pages that are '''[[Wikipedia:Protection policy|protected]]''', '''[[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Semi-protection|semi-protected]]''' or '''[[Wikipedia:Protection policy#Move protected|move protected]].
Admins '''must not''' protect pages they are actively engaged in editing, except in the case of [[Wikipedia:simple vandalism|simple vandalism]].
To request that a page be protected or unprotected, see [[Wikipedia:Requests for page protection]].
==Policy==
<!--Pages must be protected and unprotected by [[Wikipedia:Administrators|administrators]]. -->
# Do not edit a temporarily protected page except to add a protected page notice.
# Do not protect a page on which you are involved in an [[Wikipedia:edit war|edit dispute]] ([[:m:Category:Conflicts|Category:Conflicts]]).
* '''[[Special:ProtectedPages]]''' - automatic list
See [[Wikipedia:Protection policy]] for more detailed advice and the purpose of protected pages.
*:Also see [[Wikipedia:List of indefinitely protected pages]] - indefinitely or permanently protected pages, specifically maintenance templates and high-exposure Wikipedia pages
* '''[[Special:ProtectedTitles]]''' - automatic list of pages protected against creation.
==Procedure==
*:Also see [[Wikipedia:Protected titles]] which uses cascading protection and [[MediaWiki:Titleblacklist]] which protects by mask.
# Protect the page, supplying a reason.
# Add <nowiki>{{protected}}</nowiki> (or <nowiki>{{vprotected}}</nowiki> for vandalism) to the top of the temporarily protected page and make mention of the protection in the edit summary.
# List pages you protect on ''Wikipedia:Protected page''; if it is protected due to a conflict, you may want to list ''all'' user names/IPs involved in the conflict.
#: Please use '''<nowiki>{{article|ARTICLE NAME}}</nowiki>''' when listing a page at ''Wikipedia:Protected page'', where '''ARTICLE NAME''' is the article or page you wish to protect.
# Consider encouraging a resolution between the disputing parties.
# Remove the protection (while supplying a reason) once the conflict has been resolved.
# Remove <nowiki>{{protected}}</nowiki> from the top of an unprotected page and make mention of the removal in the edit summary.

== Rationale ==
See [[meta:Protected pages considered harmful]], [[meta:edit wars]]
== List of protected pages ==
If you protect a page, or find a protected page not listed here, please add it to this list. Please also add a '''short''' description of ten words or less indicating why you protected it. If you need to say more, discuss on the talk page of the page you protected. Also see the [[Special:Log/protect|protection log]] for recent unprotections, which replaces the manual list of recently unprotected pages. The <nowiki>{{protected}}</nowiki> header automatically adds [[:Category:Protected]] to the page, adding it to the Category's listing.
===Pages locked only for moves===
''Please ensure that you add '''<nowiki>{{moveprotected}}</nowiki>''' to the top of a move-locked page. New protections should be added at the '''bottom''' of this list.''

===Pages protected due to edit wars or vandalism===
This list always needs pruning. Wikipedia works perfectly fine on a protection cycle of less than one week. Please examine older listings and unprotect if at all possible. If you add an article here, please remember to check the talk page frequently, and always consider removing protection as soon as possible.

User has cleverly used socks so as to avoid the 3RR, but I'm blocking anyway. Disruptive of the AfD process (nominates own articles for deletion, then has socks go in and vote). All articles seemingly created to violate [[WP:POINT]], and are mere attempts at vandalism.
Enjoys writing about non-notable, unencyclopedic things; obviously aware of policy. Troll-like behavior.

====Pages protected against spambot====
See [[:Category:Protected against spambots]]
====Other====
*[[Talk:Iori Yagami]]. Edit war on the talk page of an article for an obscure videogame character. That's right--edit war not on the article, but on the talk page. Protected to give contributors a time-out. — '''[[User:Philwelch|Phil]]''' ''[[User_talk:Philwelch|Welch]]'' <small>[[User:Katefan0/Poll|Katefan's ridiculous poll]]</small> 21:22, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
*[[Template:S-ttl]] One editor making repeated tiny edits to heavily used template. Have left note on editor's page, suggesting he needs to work on a copy in the sandbox, rather than on the template itself. Should think this only needs to be a brief protection. 00:42, 25 December 2005 (UTC)
===Images protected while on the [[Main Page]]===
Images on the main page often become the target of vandalism, particularly being overwritten with [[shock site]] images, which harms the credibility of the project due to that page's extreme visibility. Also, it takes some time for sysops to determine what caused a main page change. As such, images have begun to be protected during their time there, and this has become a [[de facto]] policy since the second or third week of November 2004.
In order to keep track of these images, please add <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[template:ProtectedMainPageImage|ProtectedMainPageImage]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki> to them. This will add the image to [[:Category:Protected main page images]]. There are typically 4 to 5 images on the main page, although some of them may be from the [[m:Wikicommons|Wikicommons]].
===User pages===
User pages sometimes become targets for [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalism]], and may be protected upon request of the user associated with the page if this is a serious problem. Clear evidence can be seen from a user's history of the page, and their history from their discussion page.
By software configuration, script files (*.js) in user spaces are protected such that only the user or an administrator can edit it.
* [[User:Lir]] This user is banned for one year (ending 23 September 2006 as of 23 September 2005). This user's page has been repeatedly altered to conform to the banned user's wishes without the express authorization of the [[Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee|Arbitration Committee]].

====User talk pages: Registered users====
User talk pages should only be protected in cases of persistent [[Wikipedia:Vandalism|vandalism]], and then only for as brief a period as possible.
