WikiQueer:List of indefinitely protected pages

This is a list of pages that are permanently protected or semi-protected, in line with the protection policy. Note that the list is partial and incomplete. For the full list, go here.

Main Page and component templates
Templates that make up Main Page content, including those that change daily, are automatically protected by transclusion on the Main Page, as cascading protection is enabled.


 * Main Page – discuss changes at Talk:Main Page

High-visibility templates
These templates are not necessarily used on a large number of pages, but those pages on which they are used are visible ones. This also includes templates that are frequently used, but intended to be substituted, so that while they are only transcluded on a handful of pages, changes to them will quickly affect a large number of pages. See also High-use templates below.

Fully protected

 * Template:Donate
 * Portal:Box-footer – High use. Never/rarely edited. Would be non-trivial to figure out if vandalized.


 * Deletion process templates
 * Template:Afd, Template:Afd2, Template:Afd3
 * Template:Ifd, Template:Cfd, Template:Cfr, Template:Rfd, Template:Tfd, and Template:Md1


 * "Old-style" user warning templates
 * Template:Test, Template:Test1a, Template:Test2, Template:Test2a, Template:Test3, Template:Test4, Template:Test5
 * Template:Spam, Template:Spam4im

Semi-protected

Generic image names
These images have very generic names, and are undesirable as names of actual files due to the risk of accidental overwriting should someone inadvertently choose the same generic name. The images themselves contain a message similar to the following one explaining not to use the name:

Libel, slander or privacy considerations
Sometimes it may be appropriate to protect pages based on considerations, whether of legal liability or common courtesy, of harm they may cause. This may involve slander, libel or privacy. Privacy considerations might involve, for example, notorious public behavior by a mentally ill person or a dramatic but embarrassing event which involves a person who is not a public figure.

High use templates

The following templates are indefinitely protected or semi-protected because a large number of pages directly or indirectly depend on them. These templates should only be edited when absolutely necessary. Development of new revisions should be done elsewhere (in a page under user space, in a template sandbox or on a separate development subpage of the template). See also High-visibility templates above.
