Requests for page protection

You are currently viewing the requests for edits to a protected page subpage of Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. Requests for specific edits should be made on the talk page of the protected article. You can create an edit request below only if the talk page is also protected, preventing you from editing it. Instructions You may add the appropriate template ({{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}}) to the article's talk page if you would like to request an edit be made. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. For edit requests being made due to the editor having a conflict of interest with the article subject (see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used instead of the others listed above. Requests to move pages that are currently move-protected should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not on this page. This page is not for holding discussions regarding content. Otherwise, if you are unable to add a request to the article's talk page, you may use this page to propose a specific edit to be performed. Vague requests that don't propose a specific edit will be declined. Request a specific edit be made to a protected page Request edit

2026 Iran War

• 2026 Iran War (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I request the following sentence be removed from the lead's 2nd paragraph:

"and subsequently annexing the Strait of Hormuz"

This sentence was recently added but is completely unsourced, not in the body, and POV pushing. Although Iran has claimed sovereignty over the strait, there are no sources claiming that it has actually successfully annexed it during the ongoing war or even attempted officially to do so. The linked page on sovereignty in the text which is a new page created by the same user also doesn't even support this wording of annexation. Current talks between Iran and Oman are about shared administration as well, not annexation. ~2026-43592-81 (talk) 07:20, 7 August 2026 (UTC)

Gamergate

• Gamergate (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Replace X "misogynistic and/or racist commentary" with Y "misogynistic and racist commentary." so that the page complies with MOS:ANDOR guidelines. This edit should be uncontroversial, the text is not a quote, there does not appear to be any important "not both" edge case that the author was trying to address, it seems to be only a lack of awareness of guidlines such as MOS:ANDOR as well as MOS:SLASH. -- ~2026-37849-52 (talk) 23:47, 8 August 2026 (UTC)
