This page is for requesting that a page, file or template be protected. Please read up on the protection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism to high-risk templates; semi-protection and pending changes are usually used only to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars. Extended confirmed protection is used where semi-protection has proved insufficient (see the rough guide to extended confirmed protection) After a page has been protected, the protection is listed in the page history and logs with a short description indicating why it was protected, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. Further discussion should take place on the Talk page of the article. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins do not revert to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism. Note: Editors should not consider requesting page protection as a method for continuing an argument from elsewhere nor as a venue for starting a new discussion regarding article content. If a request contains excessive argument, appears to be intended to resolve a content dispute, includes personal attacks or uncivil comments, or has any other unrelated discussion, it will be removed from this page and no action will be taken.

Already protected by administrator Hunter Biden laptop controversy
Reason: Due to the salacious nature of some of the laptop's contents, this article will always be the target of extremely graphic and BLP-violating attacks, such as this one. Therefore I request indefinite and permanent protection. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 16:05, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
- American politics 2 Arbitration enforcement
Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 16:20, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
Jamie-Lee O'Donnell
Reason: Persistent attempts to add an unreferenced or improperly referenced date of birth. Latest series of the TV show she stars in has just started, increasing the problem. FDW777 (talk) 16:06, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

Jacob Kogan
Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because there are no vandals on this page anymore and it has been protected for four years already. 2406:3003:2077:3DC5:B4AF:7D4:2AED:6446 (talk) 16:14, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
- That there are no vandals is a feature of protection. What edit do you want to make to the page? Malcolmxl5 (talk) 17:20, 14 April 2022 (UTC)
