Template protection is used on higher risk templates and Lua modules, such as those with a high transclusion count or those with licensing information. Pages under this protection can only be edited by administrators and those with the template editor user right.
Autopatroller protection
Autopatroller protection only allows editing for users with the autopatrolled right. It should only be used where semi-protection has been proven to be ineffective in combating disruption in cases such as persistent vandalism, sockpuppetry and edit wars.
Semi-protection
Semi-protection disables editing for anonymous users and registered accounts less than four days old. This is the most common type of protection and is commonly used to prevent IP vandalism.

Move protection protects the page solely from being moved. By default, fully protected pages are also move protected.
Cascading protection
Cascading protection fully protects all pages transcluded on the protected page, including any images and their file description page, and any templates. Due to the widespread and powerful nature of cascading protection, its usage should be kept to a minimum. On Commons, cascading protection should only be used in rare situations where there's a consensus to do so.
In the past, it wasn't possible to protect nonexistent pages from being created. As a workaround, these pages were transcluded on a page that had cascading protection. It is now possible to protect pages using MediaWiki's built-in protection of nonexistent pages, which is applied in the same manner as ordinary protection. However, the old method has not been abandoned completely.
Cascading semi-protection is disabled, because it enabled non-sysops to fully protect pages by transcluding them.
Upload protection
Upload protection might be used to prevent overwriting of files that are either heavily used across Wikimedia projects (e.g. template icons) or used in a dangerous location (e.g. wiki's main pages) in order to prevent vandalism. These protections might be indefinitely or temporary, for example only as long as a file is on a wiki's main page. For “heavily used” files [upload=sysop] and (to prevent malicious or accidental moves) [move=sysop] should be used. [edit=sysop] is not needed (and not useful since it, for example, does not allow category changes) if just the file's contents are important (e.g. if only very few views of the file page can be expected as it happens in non-linked template use).
Requesting protection and unprotection
- To request protection
- Ask an administrator or make a request on Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Blocks and protections.
- To request unprotection
- First, ask the administrator who protected the page.
- If they are unresponsive, ask a different administrator or ask at Commons:Administrators' noticeboard/Blocks and protections.
