tools and powers to? Admins can edit full protected articles because they passed community scrutiny, and are expected to be able to read consensus out of discussion, ensure policy is followed in said consensus, and implement. If we pass ECP, 30/500 editors will be allowed to edit ECP protected articles because they made a bunch of edits, whether they spent 2 years significantly improving/creating 500 articles, or 30 days archiving dead reference links on 500 pages from the backlog. Many people here have already mentioned that many very trustworthy editors and/or topic experts will be falsely assumed untrustworthy and discouraged under 30/500; it's also important to consider that many editors, good faith and trustworthy or not, who are regardless not necessarily equipped and community-vetted to read consensus, will be automatically trusted as extended confirmed, and given an inappropriate amount of automatic power. With the semi/full dichotomy, we avoid stratification, because either almost all editors can, or almost all editors can't, edit. It's much less discouraging for an active editor with, say, 150 edits, to encounter a full protected page than a 30/500 page, because they know that power-editors are just as restricted as they are, and everyone is subject to the same edit request system. The same goes for a completely new editor, who sees even the experienced power-editors discussing and arguing for their proposed edits on the talk page, and thus sees a path to their participating on the exact same level as those power-editors, but in talkspace. PC2 would also be a good solution, but in the absence of PC2, full protection serves this purpose a lot better than ECP. As for sockpuppetry, yes, ECP would be a monumental tool for combating it. But I think that the stratification it causes, further discouraging our dwindling supply of new editors, is a far greater concern, especially when there's already systems in place for identifying and quickly limiting the impact of socks. A tool to pre-empt socks, when we already have good tools to limit their impact within minutes, is not important enough to overlook the stratification of the entire encyclopedia it will cause. Additionally, even with option B, we'd essentially be allowing socks and what they want to do, to determine the scope ECP takes on the encylopedia. No matter how much we want to keep it small, the socks will determine how many pages it's used on.

the same reasons we would in the mainspace. My userpage is actually fully protected. There was some disruption from way back when, but either way it's my userspace; it is not meant for collaboration. The exceptions are of course user talk pages (or any talk page for that matter) – rarely protected in any form. I don't know why admins would add ECP to their userspace but I see no harm in doing so if there's good reason. There is also no maximum duration for protection levels, including full protection, ECP will be no different. It's about good judgement and mostly common sense, and the same judgement will be applied with ECP, with added caution in situations where it is used over the less restrictive semi. If semi doesn't work and I protect under ECP for 2 days, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, perhaps 2 years, and disruption still is out of hand, it's time for indefinite. It would have to be really bad for that to actually happen; like I said I think such scenarios will be few and far between. Most of the time it's just juvenile vandalism or BLP violations that require page protection, and semi takes care of that quite well. Anyway you are correct that this is an admin resource, precisely, just like any other tool in the toolbox. The only protection that really could be perceived as reflecting the trust of the user is template protection, since such pages are highly visible and changes will be widespread, e.g. we don't want a bunch of trial/error edits that break the template on 20,000 pages. If we're only looking at maybe 100 or so transclusions, the template might be a good candidate for ECP given we're only suffering from vandalism or edit warring from confirmed users. ECP allows extended confirmed users to still contribute to this otherwise not-so-high-risk template, which is a win-win, right? In a nutshell, semi/PC/ECP/full are just as you say admin resources to combat disruption, plain and simple, but revolve around our policy which purposefully reflects the spirit that a wiki is supposed to be open, and it's this mentality that admins are expected to have

some cases—among most participants that there are certain situations in which semi-protection is simply inadequate to protect the encyclopaedia from harm from anybody sufficiently determined, and that full protection is too blunt an instrument, and therefore we (the community, through our elected administrators) need to be able to use the new "extended confirmed protection" in at least some circumstances. I acknowledge that there is a principled minority who would rather this new level of protection did not exist or was not used at all; they have conducted themselves honourably, but as I understand it such discussion is outwith the scope of this RfC: the deed is done and we are here to decide under what circumstances admins should be using the new protection level. Despite the overwhelming support for option C, many editors expressed reservations about it being used flippantly and tempered their comments with caveats like "extremely rare", "sparingly", "truly necessary", "clear-cut criteria", and "only when all lesser options have been exhausted" (to pick out a few); clearly many feel that the mandatory notification to the administrators' noticeboard (for protections not related to arbitration enforcement) will serve an important purpose in allowing the community to monitor and review its use, and expect that these protections will be rare (possibly excepting an initial wave as admins make use of an option that was not available before). Therefore I believe it is reasonable to say that
379:: I would have been much more hesitant to support ECP earlier this year if I had known it would lead down this slippery slope. Content disputes should not be solved by applying ECP instead of full protection—even if the original war was between two (or more) non-500/30 users, a 500/30 account could come along and (either maliciously or making an honest mistake) carrying on the reverting. We have enough protection levels for combating vandalism: pending changes is something I am a big supporter of and while few people !voting here might agree with me because they can't remember ever being at that point, I think even semi-protection will stop quite a few people from editing (lots of people create an account specifically because they want to edit one page, and if they find out that page is semi-protected, they might just give up and we have lost a potential new editor; the 30/500 criteria will seem ridiculously unattainable to a newbie). Since option A seems like it will fail (although anything is possible), I should note that I would strongly prefer option B to option C—I don't like the idea of more esoteric protection rules for rare cases (persistent autoconfirmed socks); although I can see its benefits, I think the disadvantage of 969:. The principle of the least required power should be always applied. There are many compelling comments in the discussion section below explaining how widely applying 30/500 would discourage newcomers and IP editors (who are responsible for a huge bulk of the edits) from contributing just because they don't have the numbers. Not to be anecdotal, but I wanted to contribute to another language's wiki (that's poor in quantity and quality), but couldn't and kept hitting walls with every edit or request, because I was considered by the software to be a "newcomer", even though I had much higher edits here on enwiki (not even allowing me to post a request to lift the restriction). Needless to say I'm not gonna be contributing to it anymore. And I don't want newcomers here to have a similar experience. I feel like this goes against the spirit of Knowledge's openness. Initially I was in favor of Option B, but then what quantifies "persistent"? And if it's persistent, then other measures should be followed, up to ArbCom (which is the current procedure for the few problematic topics that emerge). This type of high-level protection should be always decided per case. — 3855:, as a step short of full protection, though the limitations on its use should be stringently adhered to, since it will affect legit editors. At some point, an exemption mechanism for individuals should be devised (i.e., grant the userright before it auto-applies). Would also support a 15/250, if needed, but no more restrictive than 30/500. Despite the beliefs and behavior of far too many GA/FA-focused editors and certain wikiprojects, WP is not a good ol' boys' club of vested editors who have increased content control per their tenure. A terrible result would be something like a 1yr/6000 level. The 3:50 ratio seems okay; very active editors, not using automation, but participating in frequent discussion and making lots of minor cleanup edits, seem to average in the ballpark of 1,000 per month, so half that seems reasonable. If you can't make 50 edits in 3 days you are not trying very hard ( 8031:
is going to jump to ECP knowing semi will work just fine. There may however be a scenario where semi was deemed appropriate at first, and then the numerous socks or what have you waited till they became confirmed to continue disrupting. In that case the protection might be elevated to ECP. The decision to use ECP over semi of course also involves other considerations: Will blocking the users be effective? Is there an edit filter that could be tweaked? This is the normal process and having ECP does not change that. It's about judgement and carrying out the most effective preventive measure that has the least amount of collateral damage. I'm sorry this unclear to users who are less familiar with the administrative process, but I don't think we need to spell it out because frankly that's the philosophy ingrained in a wiki and a new level of protection is not going to change our core values
8278:
giving the reviewers much more control over content, and to some that sets up an additional hierarchy of users to which Biblioworm referred. An edit by an established user without the reviewer user right, even one with 100K edits, would have to be approved by another established user on an edit-by-edit basis. It sets the reviewers apart from other users, and that rankles some people that might not be so rankled about ECP. We're also not currently granting the reviewer user right based on PC2 criteria – we're doing it based on countervandalism history and experience, and that would need to change if PC2 were implemented. This isn't the place to rehash the PC2 discussion, though. It's been two years since the last well-publicized RFC on the subject, so when this is over, if someone wants to propose it again, maybe it's time. (Not going to be me, though. I'm RFC'd out for a while.)
7842:
treated exactly as the full protection, and given the cautious tone of most people who voted the option C, I think that it could be the consensus. I should also like the wording to be clearly state when it's appropriate and when is not. For example, if there is a conflict with two sides, one EC the other not, ECP should not be used as a means to silence the non-EC editors. Because that will in effect topic ban the one side of the discussion regardless of the behaviors of the individuals. Currently admins have to assess the situation to see exactly which editors are being disruptive, they don't ban all inexperienced editors indiscriminately. Using this protection, in effect bans every good faith non-EC editor working on that area even if they are not disruptive, while allowing any EC editor who is disruptive but not enough to warrant a ban yet.
6726:
As I said above in the vote section, it was actually the biting from an experienced editor, who was shortly after topic banned, that led to 500/30 protection. Knowledge was against creationists with all the resources to build an Ark, Scientologists with the power of Xenu, climate change deniers who are friends with creationists, all of which were much more powerful and well funded, those topics did not require this kind of protection but a hashtag with a lame internet drama was too much, we need new tools for admins, man the harpoons, it's Gamergate!!! I don't buy it. This protection might make the subject much more quiet, it does not make it better. Gamergate article didn't improve as far as I can see, It still reads like autism incarnate. And now people suggest using this protection as commonly as semi protection.
7519:. You are absolutely right that non-extended confirmed users are less likely to speak up about their inability to edit, but they are certainly more likely than unconfirmed users. My point here is that no admin in their right mind is going to add indefinite extended confirmed protection without trying shorter durations first. If they do that is abuse or severe negligence, plain and simple. Outside ArbCom-authorized topics or long-term issues of sockpuppetry, you probably won't see a need for an indefinite duration since semi usually does the trick. Even for semi, I can't tell you how many times I see "indefinite semi-protection" being requested at RFPP and the response is "semi-protected for a period of 1 week". As much as we care about protecting the wiki we care about keeping it open 7650:
contributions from new editors who might be rightfully bothered. I am not persuaded by comments above that are worried about new topic-experts unable to participate, because they can always post their draft or suggestions on the article's talk page. For contentious topics, that is usually the best first step anyway. An article that is subject to persistent vandalism, edit warring and disruptive WP:TE will exhaust any topic-expert (anyone for that matter). Semi-protecting and ECP for 1 to 6 months can actually help new knowledgeable editors or topic-experts to help improve the quality of difficult or contentious topics, in a more stable format through the article's talk page. We must assume good faith not only for new users, but also for not-new users and for admins.
2067:
advice rather than automated means. I am very uncomfortable about EP being used in edit warring situations because it effectively gives older accounts a great upper hand over newer users. I am not as concerned about full protection since admins go through a vetting process and risk desysop if they abuse their power over protected article. I would be open to creating a user right that would be granted upon request to edit through an intermediate protection level, but since extended confirm is about account age and not trust, it doesn't satisfy me in that regard. The only use of ECP I feel confortable with is to prevent socks, and even then I worry about overuse leading to a sort of arms race with sockmasters.
5477:—are deliberately modified to conflict with one of those "procedures through which policy and guidelines may be enforced" that the ArbCom creates. A reading of CONEXCEPT would find that the ArbCom procedure overrides the policy-mandated procedure, but an initial reading of the arbitration policy would find that policy overrides ArbCom cases. My personal intuition here is that the ArbCom procedure would indeed override the policy procedure. It is not the role of the community to hear appeals of ArbCom decisions—the ArbCom was created because we accept that there are issues the community cannot resolve by itself. The policy conflict would have to be resolved by the Committee, not the community. 7715:, I do agree with some of his points. I'm also a fairly casual Wikipedian. I've been here a bit more than one and a half years now and I've made about 60 edits per year, give or take a few. Therefore, it would take me about six to seven more years to achieve EC status, which could be a big problem if ECP was used on many articles. I've never tried to edit an article on a very contentious topic, so this wouldn't really affect me yet. However, it feels like content creators or casual Wikipedians could take a long time to achieve 500, even if they are good-faith members of the community and good at what they do. I would be much more comfortable with a 30/200 restriction or something similar. 7497:
and if they do apply full protection haphazardly, the multitude of experienced editors who are not admins will surely raise complaints. On the other hand, experienced non-admins won't be affected by the haphazard application of EC protection, so they have no incentive to complain unless they dislike EC on principle. Meanwhile, the new users (those with less than 500 edits) are unlikely to request unprotection due to their unfamiliarity with Knowledge, or unwillingness to jump through so many hoops. Proportional duration is still up to each admin's interpretation. If an admin does decide to EC protect a page indefinitely, it could easily languish that way forever. Just looking through
9441:, it seems that the important distinction is that the talk page is not under 30/500, only the article. That allows people to request changes even if they haven't met the restriction. In that sense it is working. However, I also note that semi was only applied in June, and there were three minor vandalism attacks since then. Although there have been no edits to the article since 30/500 was applied, we've got four edit requests that needed to be turned down. In terms of stopping disruption, 30/500 seems only mildly more effective than semi was. The long term effect may be better, though, so I guess we'll see what happens over time, as 10 days is a bit short to evaluate the result. - 712:: It is a bad idea to give more importance to edit count. An user who has 500 edits of wiki-gnoming is no more deserving of editing some pages that an editor who has extensively contributed to a few articles doing a few edits of 1,000+ bytes each plus a few minor edits, who may easily not have totaled 500 edits yet could have done a much more valious contribution than a wiki-gnome. Also, we already have a lot of people reverting vandalism. This kind of restriction (“protection”) can't be justified on the basis of vandalism when most of it gets reverted in minutes. Knowledge doesn't have a problem with vandalism. It ha a problem with excessive restrictions and revert-happy editors. 2320:
they're not at all clear on what hoops they are and are not willing to jump through, what sacrifices they are and are not willing to make, to achieve it. Thus, we are in a situation where we agree that we need a tool capable of making things harder for vandals, but have consensus to implement the tool with no policy other than "semi protection must have been tried and failed". 500 edits is a lot of effort for a vandal to go to, but it's also quite a hurdle for a good faith new user. In short of a workable policy to protect such users, option B is the appropriate step - signal that this should go further than Arbcom, but that we are not willing to use this as a free-for-all.
4626:. The use of ECP will help greatly when it comes to POV warriors, prolific sockmasters, and LTA vandals. It seems both bureaucratic and counterproductive to limit ourselves in when we can make use of this tool. If it will stop the disruption while still allowing through at least some constructive edits, that's a win for the encyclopedia. It is tedious beyond belief to deal with some LTA vandals. The ones who add sneaky vandalism, such as plausible-sounding hoaxes, consume massive amounts of volunteer time. If ECP turns out to be problematic in itself, we can review its use. We can also add restrictions if the community finds it's being used indiscriminately. 8232:) made a good point: Why is it that editors are overwhelmingly approving unrestricted use for this "intermediate" protection level, but yet rejected the also intermediate PC2 for reasons of "bureaucracy and hierarchy"? Even more remarkably, PC2 was weaker, to a certain extent. With PC, changes are simply reviewed and not blocked outright. But ECP is hard protection—editing is completely disallowed for those who have less than 500/30. What is the reason for this conflict? Could it be that people voting here are not concerned because they know that ECP will not affect them due to their long tenures and high edit counts? 7416:. I'm sorry this was not clear, perhaps we should amend the wording for clarity. Semi on the other hand may be handed out more liberally since it involves less collateral damage, but semi itself is not given a longer duration because it is still "technically open to edits", and this would be much less the case for the more restrictive 30/500 protection. This should go without saying, but we can amend the policy language to clarify that 30/500 is no different than the other protection levels when it comes to deciding on a duration (with exception of highly visible templates which are given an indefinite duration) 5357:— it should never be widespread, but should be applied to problematic topics/article sets where disruption exists despite semi-protection. Semi-protection should always be the first step, only when that doesn't cut it should this be implemented. Controversial topics can otherwise be overrun by SPAs, at detriment to seasoned editors — eating up their time, especially so when policies need to be reiterated over and over again. I've never seen a new editor who started editing with an agenda on something controversial, who later went on to do constructive edits elsewhere. It just doesn't happen. 9420:
depending on the vexatiousness of the topic. The problem with the edit-count based privileges is that the edit count has no bearing on the editor quality. The auto-confirmed protection works well, because it is not too much of a burden for good faith editors while it is an inconvenience for disruptive editors.(especially effective against vandals since vandalism is quite a blockable offense) But this one asks too much of a casual contributor in good faith. I don't deny that it can, in some instances, prevent persistent disruption. but in my opinion, the cost far outweighs the benefits.
7791:
the article or topic (those are ArbCom decisions or community decisions). Say a 3-month maximum. It should probably be treated as full-protection in terms of time in order to be egalitarian and avoid the problem of registered user castes. Also clarify that it is never appropriate in user or WP spaces (i.e. admins who semi-protect their userspace should never escalate to EC protection, they should warn/block the registered account). EC is solving an admin resource issue rather than an article content quality issue and shouldn't reflect "not trusted enough yet" back on the editor. --
1081:
disenfranchise new editors and encourage ownership of articles by entrenched, adroit factions. Edit counts should not be used as a license to edit or to lock down articles. It took me 10 years to get 500 edits, yet, even were I now to start editing an extended restricted page, I would likely be dismissed as simply a sleeper account that grinded just enough edits to game the system. If it must exist, then I adamantly oppose its use except in the most drastic or extraordinary cases and adamantly oppose its unchecked use by administrators. Appreciate the watchlist notification.
2101:- without prejudice to migrating to C down the road after this is tried out. Recent use of 30/500 has been, in all cases so far, a "we're at the end of our wits trying to solve this, so its either this or full-protection". So Option B would maintain that Last-Resort mentality without having to tie up ArbCom. I think we give this a try and see how it works first. Using this for "regular disruption" treads the line on infringing on "anyone can edit" due to a few bad apples. It may be that it is inevitable, but I'd rather go incrementally down that road. 2902:
semi-protection. As an example, which I offer cautiously as I have not been involved in Gamergate issues, I see that it has proved useful in that brouhaha. I can envision that a new article about a player in that controversy might be created and then might erupt into problems. I can imagine that this level of protection might be warranted rather than insisting that semi be added and failed before jumping to this level, but I am totally on board with the concept that jumping immediately to this level of protection would be extremely rare.--
7886:
then it's just a replacement for full protection in cases of heavy vandalism or where all editors involved are not extended confirmed, and like full protection would always be temporary. The problematic examples you've listed elsewhere (e.g. applying ECP in a content dispute when one party is extended confirmed and the other isn't) would be obvious misuse of admin tools (like semi protecting an article when one party is autoconfirmed and the other isn't). That situation isn't an argument for getting rid of semi protection, is it?
6927:
was a solid enough fan base who ensured they were autoconfirmed to keep pushing the disruption. ECP would have been an excellent choice to deploy at that point. Articles relating to politicians that are not covered by WP:ARBAP2, particularly around election time in any given country especially those given to extreme partisan politics, would be another example. Like I said in an another post, a discussion about specific aspects, such as duration, should wait until consensus has been reached as to actually permit admins to deploy ECP.
8921:
have an administrative power to choose who is productive and who is not. There is a reason for the distinction of involved admins. (This is unique to ARBPIA3 where the arbcom unwisely created a broad sanction which made it impossible to ECP every article this sanction applies, another of the many flaws of this new protection.) Secondly, as you just said, the puppetmasters are willing to create and game this new system too, which supports what I said that the only people who are being disallowed are the dispassionate new editors.
7341:, EC is permanent, or usually is, yet socking or edit warring is a fleeting thing. Why would we want to protect an article so that someone can't contribute positively? Perhaps Option C should have a time limit, temp-EC. As for my Option A, I could see a fast-track system of ARBCOM approvals so that we don't have to wait for a full case to get ARBCOM approval for EC. The one thing we SHOULD NOT have is EC available to every admin. It will do terrible things to Knowledge. Everyone can edit is turning into only the elite can edit. 6481:
application is established. Moreover, if the only attention it receives is in the form of complaints (assuming there will be at least a few) there will be a sort of selection bias in people’s perception of the policy‘s success, while mandatory reporting will create an easily visible ‘track record’. (For that matter, it may be worthwhile to survey the reversions and edit-requests on ECP pages, to evaluate the balance of disruption-reduction against inconvenience to good-faith newbies and the editors who process their requests.)—
6820:
broadly it is used for I/P), but realistically, if semi is not working, there is something else going on that needs a better evaluation of the situation and not just slapping a closed door onto an article. The Internet is inherently not a safe space, and I've seen people suggesting 500/30 to make WP such a place, which can't happen without closing off the open-edit fundamental system. It might take more work and for editors and admins to show patience and restraint, but if we close off Knowledge, the experiment has failed. --
9658:
edit, and they'll give up in frustration. Now, 30/500 locks out quite a lot of people who I wouldn't call 'newbies', and who I imagine are quite competent in making a protected edit request, but a lot of good faith newbies will simply not know how to make an edit request, or have the patience to make one, so even if there are technically ways for anyone to get their constructive edit onto a protected page, what any form of protection (even semi) does in reality is lock out most people who fail the criteria completely.
6327:
been granted ECP through an Arbcom case, Gamergate for example, then the ECP is an Arbcom action, with the authority of the whole committee, and not an unilateral action by an admin. An Arbcom action such as this already requires a majority vote by the committee before being performed. As for the subsection notification, the requirement is like a block review. It's posted as a new thread, the community reviews, the discussion is closed once consensus supports or opposes the ECP action then it is archived as normal.
2995:. Conceptually, I hate the idea of restricting editing from new users on certain pages. Practically, I acknowledge the necessity. That being said, this is a less restrictive option than full protection, and it adequately addresses the weaknesses of semi-protection. There are cases of vandalism, BLP violations, highly visible pages, etc. where this will be useful temporary measure of protection. I agree with the comments above that this should be used sparingly and only after lesser forms of protection have failed. 1968:- 30/500 protection would definitely be more effective against persistent sockpuppetry than semi-protection (i.e. "4/10 protection") in that it would take a full month for a sock to gain auto-extended confirmed status. However, I would add the caveat that community-imposed 30/500 should last no longer than 60–90 days, after which ArbCom would have to authorize indefinite 30/500 protection. Option C goes too far, and Option A doesn't give admins the flexibility to impose 30/500 in an emergency. — 3117:. For the purposes of sockpuppetry, 30/500 should work wonders. We can't keep making expensive edit filters for each and every issue of sockpuppetry, and no one is having fun combing through revision histories fact checking every change. Same rules apply with 30/500 – don't protect preemptively and use it only when necessary. The flexibility of having a new form of protection at our disposal is only going to make things easier, save us a lot of headaches, and still allow articles to develop 5542:
occasions despite it being permanently semi protected. High profile editors (who are not administrators) shouldn't have to put up the extra harassment from disgruntled editors and vandals. User pages should be allowed to be 'sacrosanct'. There is no 'need' for anyone and everyone to edit my user page. It's bad enough that user talk pages are routinely vandalised, but to then allow it to also occur to user pages, despite semi protection, definitely requires a different policy response.
9140:
for this protection to be justified is if there is consistent disruption from sock puppet accounts who are not vandals but disruptive editors, even then you bar every new potential good faith editor just because some people are ban evading socks. Full protection is almost always is a result of content disputes that turn into edit wars, if you replace full protection with EC protection, you may be helping one side of the conflict or another, depending which side has EC editors more
4662:
sockpuppetry, the disruptive nature of the edits isn't immediately visible to editors not familiar with the situation or where the article has a high edit rate. Full protection, whilst highly effective at stopping disruption, also prevents almost all legitimate editing as well, and is rarely applied outside specific circumstances such as edit wars between established editors. With safeguards I think it is appropriate to have an alternative available for these rare situations.
2084:- I can understand seing Option C as too vague and/or too far away from the wiki idea. If semi-protection doesn´t work get the 30/500 authorized by the ARBCOM and everything is fine. And the addition of usage against sockpuppetry makes absolute sense to me. What I would think about is making the 30/500 temporary at first, like automatically downgrading it to semi-protection after a month or something like that; with the option to easily renew and lengthen it if necessary. ... 857:- I feel that this policy should not have even be discussed in the first place. We do not need further confusion to brand new users who have just joined Knowledge. As such, we must remember about people who actually help Knowledge, but have only just created a Knowledge account, and how this policy, if one were such to exist, affect those people. See discussion below for more details. (And yes, my account is just 3 months old at the time of editing, hence the support.) -- 7690:
who will make tons of typo corrections as I see them, but I absolutely agree that there will be many editors out there who feel the way you do—for whom amassing 500 edits using automated tools or for such trivial wastes of time as searching for typos is an absurd concept, and the fact that they plod along at their own pace, making fewer but more important edits, provides no reason why they shouldn't have the same right as '30/500' users to edit controversial pages.
8906:
editors are no longer blocked by admins when they revert a wave of sockpuppets. This has dramatically reduced the effectiveness and thus number of sockpuppets, though these puppetmasters are now putting in 500 mostly minor edits and waiting 30days per account to again disrupt the encyclopedia. I think those accounts clearly owned by previously blocked editors who quickly pass 30/500 to disrupt the topic area should be blocked just as their previous accounts were.
2171:- pages experiencing persistent sock-puppetry lack the safeguards to really do anything effective. Similarly, since I've been fairly active in outing sock and meat puppets, I know that they get smarter - they don't keep attempting the same obvious edits, meaning classifying them as socks is more difficult. They also learn pretty easily how to use different IP addresses. Creating this statute will help minimize tendentious editing from socks, as well as vandalism. 8066:'encyclopedia anyone can edit' thing seriously. We do not want to stop IP editing, and we do not want to discourage new editors. But there are an increasing number of cases of sockpuppetry and disruption where ECP could help us. We are experienced at this, and we understand how long and what type of protection is best. Please assume good faith in the admin corps. We really are here to help the encyclopedia, and we want the best for the project and the movement. 3889:- given that the assumption here is that semiprotection has failed, and the only other option currently is full protection, this seems a reasonable halfway house and I don't see the harm in adding it to administrators' arsenal when combating vandalism. Assuming it doesn't get applied in cases where semiprotection would have done, of course. That can be monitored in the early days of it being used, but we generally assume our admins are sensible people.  — 9228: 8829: 10155:. At the least, I think we've agreed that we don't need to automate posting new sections. Admins may be expected to manually make a post for any applications of ECP that could be debatable (as opposed to ArbCom-related matters), but I still think the transcluding the bot report will suffice. And rest assured I won't kill this bot task :) If I do or if Tool Labs blows up you can still rely on the link the header of the report that brings you to 8126:
warring because it forces discussion. It would be horribly inappropriate to lock one side out of the page as a substitute for discussion. I'm not talking about abuse from an involved admin. I'm talking about an admin who responds to an RFPP request or AN3 report and may be tempted to try the new lower protection level before full protection without considering the ramifications. This is the main reason I'm not supporting Option C as written. ~
331:. This option will obviously fail, but I will cast my vote for what I believe is correct. Admins don't need more practically unrestrained discretionary power, especially considering that this is a rather powerful level of protection. If we are to use this type of protection for purposes other than Arbitration Enforcement, the criteria for doing so should be specific, not a sweeping mandate for discretionary use "whenever necessary." 7561:
right, we run into the same issue with full protection all the time. Fortunately with ECP the fallback is not as significant (full to none vs ECP to none). I don't know how long it'd take for a core solution to happen, but I've meaning to propose a bot-automated report of full protections that have expired, perhaps pinging the protecting admin. This would be a straightforward task to implement, and the same could be done for ECP
9434:
being disruptive or were being managed easily by existing rules. Since it has been applied it has effectively disenfranchised any new editor from taking part in the discussion without considerable work. Given that there was no evidence provided that there was a problem that semi-protection wasn't already handling, we've managed to prevent new editors from taking part in discussion with no significant sign of reduced disruption.
8374:
respondents to fully-protected edit requests. I'd only support PC2 if we separated out the reviewer PC1 and reviewer PC2 user rights (with the PC2 needing to be requested by current reviewers). Specifically, any editor with a history of edit warring should not be able to review PC2 revisions for obvious reasons, but we've never had cause to heavily consider that when granting that flag up until now. ~
4380:. I'm in favor of any shifts in policy in the direction of asking our editors to prove their dedication and dependability. I'm favor of any new policy that moves us away from the idea that anyone can edit anonymously, which I realize was necessary during 2003–13 to build momentum and mass but which is no longer so good for the encyclopedia, in my opinion. Option C is a step in the right direction. 1656:. I'll go on record as being around 130/1200 and having no idea what's going on half the time - editcount might suggest I'm not a sockpuppet but I don't feel terribly qualified. For example, to my uninformed mind this sounded like a perfectly reasonable and useful tool. Then I read through comments like I was being warned by the ghost of wikifuture. So, strongly oppose B and C, and support A 407:. I actually support wider use than just approval by the arbitration committee, but both options B and C are too lenient as they allow it to be imposed at the discretion of a single user so this is the only option I can support. In my view the restriction should be applied only with the prior consensus of multiple independent administrators that other methods have failed or are not appropriate. 1695:
understand that to a seasoned editor, 500 edits is nothing, but if I continue at this rate, I will have clearance to re-edit some of the articles I've already made contributions to in four more years. I don't think that the miniscule benefits Option C produces outweigh the damage to the morale of new editors or infrequent editors, so I will support using this as infrequently as possible.
7998:, and is found to be ineffective, then 30/500 limitation may be imposed? The present language grants unlimited and arbitrary power to impose 30/500 limitation wherever semi-protection might otherwise apply. Is this what the proponent and supporters want? If not, and the language is intended as a proviso, then it should be rewritten, substituting "if" or "where" for "given that". 6432:- If this action needs posting at AN, why not just have a bot trigger a posting everytime it's used. Either on the main AN page, or a sub page. That way, everyone will get an idea of whether it looks like it's being used too liberally. If it's only a once in a while usage, then it's no problem for an uninvolved editor to click on the link and see if it warrants a second look. 1552:
experienced editors who spend most of their time pushing their POV that is not supported by reliable sources, these folks know all rules of Knowledge and are looking for an angle to ban other editors. These persistent POV pushers and ethnic warriors need to identified and banned from editing, the newcomers that make positive contributions need to find a welcoming atmosphere.--
6622:
become as widespread as semi-protection: with full vs. semi-protection, many active non-admins will argue against full protection. This is not the case when choosing between ECP and semi-protection, since the newcomers ECP restricts are unlikely to speak out against it. Knowledge is failing to attract as many new editors as in the past; ECP will only exacerbate the decline.
8148:. Almost every day there's a request for protection from someone who wants their 'side' to prevail in an content dispute with an IP while disguising it as an attempt to control disruption, and we always have to be sure we're not locking out someone who has a real problem with content. If admins understand the protection policy – and we do – there's no need to add your text. 891:- I am against this level of protection as a whole. The community doesn't get a direct say about the arbitration committee's use of it as a remedy, but it can and should strike it down as a community approved protection level. Use of this level of protection, especially allowing wider applications, is against the Knowledge's core value of being "the 💕 that anyone can edit". 4166:. As the Knowledge content grows, so does the need for enhanced control over content grow with it, especially the professional attempts to abuse the encyclopedia for promotional purposes. This comes as a much needed intermediary protection level between semi and full protection and I see no need whatsoever for notification to be posted in a subsection of AN for review - 9301:). His usual preferred method of getting around semi is to make 10 edits to his user page and then jump into vandalizing without warning, so that his sleeper isn't found before he can get to the semi-protected articles. Here, he made 115 edits to his userpage (which have now been deleted), apparently got bored, and made a single vandalizing edit to an unprotected page ( 51:
best chance of establishing a consensus and making the best use of the time that the hundreds of participants have invested. I should also thank all the participants, especially those who provide insightful rationales and those who do not yet meet the criteria for 'extend confirmed', who brought a different perspective that would otherwise have been easy to overlook.
3961:, newcomers and topic-experts can always post drafts or suggestions to the talk page, which is what WP:BRD requires and is likely on contentious topics; vandalism and edit warring by new accounts and socks is a growing problem, which exhausts constructive new/old contributors and admins; for other reasons see my comment in the "Impact on newcomers" discussion section. 952:
are in their critical learning-the-ropes stage) because of disruption by identifiable & bannable bad actors is a terrible solution, but it's just what Option C (and to a lesser extent Option B) propose. I can accept an extraordinary exception in the case of truly intractable and highly disruptive sockpuppetry directed at a single article (i.e. Option B).
8298:
is that they have absolutely no stake in whether this is implemented, because ECP will not affect them in the least. They will still be able to freely edit all ECP-protected articles, even though new users are locked out. I find this very concerning. Note that my object here is not to revive the PC2 discussion, but rather to use it a contrasting example.
6096:- I don't feel like ArbCom should have to be tasked with making decisions about page protection-- admins can be trusted to do this, so option A doesn't jive well with me. I think there does need to be a responsive measure for folks who try to game the system with sockpuppetry and sleeper accounts intended to circumvent the semi-protection process. 5725:. The essential point is "given that semi-protection has proven to be ineffective". Under present circumstances, if semi-protection fails, the options are either to let the disruption continue or to stop all non-admin editors from editing. The option of stopping a limited range of editors will sometimes be a lesser evil than either of those two. 6311:. Need clarification on "Notification is to be posted in a subsection of AN for review, unless the topic is already authorized for 30/500 protection by the Arbitration Committee." What does this mean? Will this be a general notification permanently posted at AN, or is this to be posted every time it's used? Wording is open to interpretation. 9717:
to obstruct improvement)? In some circumstances I can understand temporarily putting this protection in place, but, all six of these currently have no expiry date set (in other words are indefinitely protected). I also find it interesting that all six of these 30/500 protections were set within two weeks of the first (6th to 18th April 2016).
8163:, though. Does it not make sense to provide similar guidance for 30/500? Alternatively, the existing guidance could be relocated somewhere that isn't specific to only one protection level. This isn't only applicable to the admins protecting pages, but also to newer editors who seek to understand the protection policy and how it's applied. ~ 9527:
continued use of new, disruptive accounts where other methods (such as semi protection) have not controlled the disruption. This provision does not apply to a page or topic area which has been placed under 30/500 protection by the Arbitration Committee." I've been taking this to mean that 30/500 is implicitly an arb enforcement tool. --
125:, with guidance related to over- or mis-use, but that this not come fully into force until the mass message to administrators has been sent out. I further recommend that a review of extended-confirmed protection (excluding arbitration enforcement) be done in three months' time to establish whether its use is living up to expectations. 680:
bay, but this isn;t aimed at socks, or disruptive IPs, but 30/500 states that certain editors aren't considered to be experienced enough to even discuss the topic. Given that Option A already sees it applied to talk pages, I'm concerned that any further opening up of its use will see far wider and even less careful application. -
4565:
seems to be unnecessary bureaucracy, and a bit lop-sided. An Option D to allow this protection to be used at admin discretion without the need to report the action at AN would have been helpful, and I would have supported that option. I do feel, however, that whenever any form of protection is applied that a message, such as
1063:. We already have an intermediate category between full-protection and semi-protection - Pending Changes Level 2. However, the community overwhelming rejected the implementation of PC2, citing unnecessary bureaucracy / hierachy and fears over widespread usage as reasons of opposition. Same applies for 30/500 protection. -- 6740:
indefinite ECP applied. What the RFC is asking is whether Admins should be allowed to apply limited duration (at least that should be thrust of it) ECP to articles that are seeing heavy disruption from new accounts, sock accounts, IP's and sleepers. If ECP is not necessary, then the fall back position is semi protection.
642:. 500/30 is an extreme form of protection which disallows a very wide swathe of the editors. There should be first a serious examination of the results of the 500/30 protection on the areas it has been used, before expanding it any further. Absent this review, I am unwilling to extend it any further than it already has. 4569:, should be placed on the talkpage to give guidance to those users impacted on what they can do. Accounts impacted by Extended confirmed protection can apply to have their user rights adjusted to edit through the protection, and such information should be placed on the talkpage advising such users they can apply at 768:- I worry, with other editors, that B and C (unchecked) risk creating an undue burden on new users. 500 edits is a lot to ask of a newbie, and I fear this protection will discourage a fair bit of useful and productive content creation. I recommend reading the comments below the voting section, which inform my vote. 7665:
whereas some have been creating new (or vastly improved) graphics for articles into which I put a lot of work; and I have never vandalised, been rude, or engaged in an edit war. I feel that (a) I have earned my right to make good-faith improvements to articles, and (b) I shouldn't have to, beyond auto-verification.
1184:. Let's not increase a trend that is gradually destroying Knowledge as it becomes less accessible and more bureaucratic. Also a basic life principle is to use the minimum force required. We don't need to give admins greater powers. I fail to see why we need this high bar of protection without ArbCom authorization. 3939:, two of our most heated topic areas. It makes sense that this should be effective in less complicated topics which experience the same forms of disruption. Fills the critical gap between where semiprotection is ineffective and full protection is unwarranted. Inherently support any option but strongly prefer C. 1910:: Option C is vague, creates more caste and encourages editors to put "this user has extendedconfirmed permission" userboxes (more hat collecting!), and gives too much power to silence newcomers. Semi-protection works just fine for most cases. I support use only to stop paid advocates and other sockpuppets. 2260:
full protection (if not more) for the next year or so, and afterwards the admins will have made necessary adjustments to community feedback to know which articles should go under which protection. Cases on the fence between semi/pending and full are precisely the ones that would benefit from 30/500 anyways.
9628:(is that how you ping? I'll consider that a ping because I have no clue how to wiki) but it's a great point that it deserves to be mentioned again. The talk page is NOT under 20/500, only the article. If edits can be requested and discussion is encouraged to new users who don't fit 30/500 they can do so. 4995:
must have XX number of days with edits. This would then prevent someone from gaining edit access by simply making 500 edits on one day for the purpose of crossing the threshold. - - - Another thought: is it possible to apply additional limits to editors with, say, X number of bans in the past 12 months?
1163:. The average EC-protected page today sees a new editor go through the trouble of an edit request at a rate of once per year. Let's hope, under option B or C, sock puppeteers don't figure out they can disrupt Knowledge for new editors on a large scale by baiting admins into EC-protecting popular pages. 10101:
I don't like the idea of an additional noticeboard. We already have so many freaking noticeboards that they're losing their effectiveness. Eyes are glazing over at the sheer number of noticeboards one needs to watch. I really think transclusion of MusikBot's report in a section of AN will be fine. If

I would be concerned with all of them. The 30/500 sanction on talk pages makes it difficult for many (possibly most) editors to actually contribute to those pages in any meaningful way. Like I said, 30/500 on the article page I can understand. But, for the talk page what does this achieve (other than

It was implemented as a result of the ARBPIA3 remedy, so it did originate as an arb enforcement tool, but I think we've posted up, down, and sideways now that the standards laid out a couple of months ago were for AE/DS use and it's up to the community to decide what else to use it for (if anything).

All of this seems to indicate that 30/500 is capable of working against sockpuppetry. Since this is the first time (to my knowledge) the community has authorized 30/500 outside of arbitration enforcement, this might be a useful case study to inform the positions of editors on how we should use 30/500

I hate the generalization that ECP makes. Editors are always going on about how "edit count doesn't matter", then come on RFCs and say another thing entirely. Compared to other editors, I've done rather poorly on the edit count basis, and a third of my edits are in user space. But my point is that if

for an example. If Option C passes, then may I suggest an explicit time limit on the protection, with indef 500/30 only allowed via ArbCom directives.

before framing the policy that governs the practical use of the added protection. Step 1: You are allowed to do this. Step 2: This is the scope and here are your limitations. It'd be somewhat pointless if a policy was created and then the community consensus was "sorry you're not allowed to use ECP".
6707:
There is a reason why these all have Arbcom cases. What has come out of the Gamergate is that the admin corps needs a new tool to deal with disruption. Autoconfirmed is easily gamed and protection might be too strong. There's not been an intermediate protection level that lets newbies who have picked

No objection from me.

with modification of 30/500: Auto-protection will reduce activity by casual bad actors, but determined ones will spend a couple hours making 500 edits to cross the threshold. Rather than (or in addition to) the total number of edits, include a parameter that looks at number of edit DAYS. For example,
3906:- Amakuru says it nicely above: under this formulation, it would be a useful mid-level of protection, with the risk of it being too restrictive kept in check by a) requirements for prior attempts of solving by semi, and b) we do assume admins to be both conservative and accountable in this regard. -- 3432:
above. Yes, this is introducing additional complexity into the protection options; but to strike a healthy balance between preventing disruption and encouraging constructive contributions, wider use of such protection would be helpful. Of course, it should only be used if semi-protection is not going

2. Unlike full that locks out everyone and semi that does not lock out anyone for long, 30/500 has real potential to lock out of editing one side of an edit war while the other remains. I am ready to believe most admins are aware of such issues, but if "most" is 90% it still means a few of them could
2259:
1. 30/500 allows a downgrade from full, which is good in general (less protection is better most of the time), but it also allows an upgrade from semi/pending when no admin would have been willing to impose full. I think this does not matter, because 30/500 is likely to come under as much scrutiny as

Thanks for asking to clarify, that was a little poorly phrased - I am not. I'm supporting (lengthy if necessary) periods of full protection to combat consistent edit warring over content disputes from real editors. And I'm supporting continuing to use the existing counter-sockpuppetry tools to combat

For the hell of it I want to point out that as an admin I have no interest whatsoever in using a new level of protection, so this is going to go right along side pending changes and super-protect as a new tool I neither wanted nor plan to use.

You only care to enforce ECP for people you deem are "worst editors," don't get me wrong I don't assume you are pushing a POV and allowing only the editors who share your POV while reporting others, but you have to agree that it may be used as such and is a broken system to begin with.

We don't necessarily need to try semi first. If I look at a revision history and see that there are numerous confirmed users causing disruption, I know that semi won't be effective.

exactly like that, and it wont be the last I assure you. With this RFC going the way it is, we will be throwing the AGF out of the window and the articles with this protection will be OWNED spaces.

Yes there is a reason why these all have arbcom cases, and it's not the newcomers. Yes there might be a certain amount of disruption from newcomers especially when the topic is hot.

I envision the report being at the top of the noticeboard, which should fit nicely next to the table of contents which is typically very long. This to me would be quite visible. The idea I think is to start a discussion when someone disputes the use of ECP. At the rate we're seeing it being applied

As a start, individual sections would be helpful to give ECP notifications some visibility. In time, this can then be migrated into a transclusion of the report. I don't know if others would want a report at the top of the noticeboard right from the start. Perhaps by then a new noticeboard would be

I join TomStar in noting that I will never use this level of protection. ArbCom instituted this new "extended confirmed" usergroup by fiat. Seeing that unlimited admin use will now become official policy, new users will be increasingly shut out as it is applied in a liberal, over-the-counter manner
9891:
I have to disagree. We also have to consider the class of pages where we previously wouldn't have used full protection but wouldn't have been able to control the disruption either. This is mostly true with sockpuppetry. It's obviously not customary to fully protect articles for long periods of time

is an absolute disgrace, but that's not under the community's control.) However, while this reassures me slightly, I still don't think it's a very nice compromise. If a newbie comes across an ECP-protected article and wants to edit it, all they'll see is that the system won't let them make a normal

You say it will be, like full protection, always temporary. That's great, can we write that down clearly in the proposal so as to avoid any future misunderstandings? It would also be helpful to note that it's not appropriate to use ECP in content disputes, just to be on the safe side. Currently the

This is exactly the sort of viewpoint that we need to see more of, but our RfCs will always have an inbuilt bias against users like you—casual editors who would probably voice strong opposition were they aware of the proposal. For me, 500 edits was nothing, because I'm a sort of spammy-style editor

That is a step in the right direction, thanks. However, I still have my doubts with how vigorously protection duration guidelines will be enforced. Part of the reason why long-length full protection is so rare is because sysops recognize only 1,296 Knowledge accounts will be able to edit that page,

What need is there to wait—why not create it now? If there is an edit request template for the higher-level full protection, what good reason would there be to not create a template for this type? We should never create a system in which any admin can unilaterally impose protection and consequently

I would add that although vandalism commonly comes from IPs and new users, on unprotected pages it is often the IPs and new users (in other words, casual readers) who spot the vandalism and remove it. On the other hand, it will be much more difficult to vandalize a 500/30 protected page, but if the

This proposal is being voted on by the people it would affect the least: we are approaching this RfC through an enormous blind spot. Who among us has fewer than 500 edits or can remember what it was like to be a newcomer? This proposal will drive away new users, and here's why: 500 edits seems like

we should only use this sparingly as a short-term measure for really heated issues that it would be difficult for administrators to otherwise keep on top of. We shouldn't create barriers to editing for new and occasional contributors, lest it become another gentle step away from the original vision

Knowledge has proven itself time and again to be a pure democracy regardless of the weight of arguments, and therefore option C will be implemented. The problem (as with a certain vote in my country not too long ago), is that while people are clear on what they don't want (a simple-to-game system),
1615:
ECP was always a necessary evil based on the otherwise unenforceable Arbcom decision, but anything else is just scope creep. The kind of editor willing to wait four days to make a disruptive edit is not the kind of editor you want trying to sneak 500 edits into the encyclopedia prior to disruption.
1422:
In almost all cases where 30/500 is being proposed, the use of full protection, with policy written as it already is currently, is more appropriate. The issue of stratification should carry a lot of weight - the ability to edit an ECP article is a powerful tool, and which editors do we want to give

users so as to prevent ownership, and that it is the still contentious but less visited articles that actually benefit from protection from drive-by edits. This level of protection isn't useful against vandalism anyway. Allowing admins to lock people out of their pet articles without supervision is

I am a bit ambivalent about the use of this on articles - I don't like it, but it is another tool to consider. What I don't like is the use of this rule on talk pages. There it disenfranchises new editors from even involving themselves in the discussion. Semi-protection serves to keep most socks at

424:
At this point we are moving from "encyclopedia anyone can edit" to "encyclopedia anyone can edit unless it's a contentious topic." I don't think it's a useful sanction at all, it's just a tool for owning the article by the regulars of Knowledge who are not necessarily the experts of the subject and

This is borne out not just by the number of participants supporting option C (though it is worth noting that almost twice as many people supported option C as supported option A and B combined), but by the detailed rationales that many of the participants left, and it was these—rather than drive-by
9486:
But the current wording states that the duration will be no different than semi or full protection, that it will be proportional to the disruption. In reality, it will most likely be used like semi protection level 2, and we know how many indefinitely semi protected articles we have. I recommended

It has been found that, although the majority of edits are performed by experienced users, the majority of bytes are written by inexperienced users. These editors lacking extended confirmation should not be penalized for the small minority of vandals. It is easier to revert vandalism than it is to

I do not deny the frustrating nature of contributing in a contentious area, and sympathize with you even though I've never edited in that area. But this protection is fundamentally flawed and it's the antithesis of Knowledge. Furthermore this protection, while it may reduce the socking, encourages
8394:
As far as I'm concerned, PC2 + semi should be available right now as an option for pages subject to extreme disruption. And yet... here we are. Even if PC2 were available, however, 30/500 would be valuable as another tool in the chest. Pages that would otherwise be subject to full protection might

My fear is that, in time, there will be as many ECP articles as semi articles, which will impact the project severely. The current proposal says it would be used against "any form of disruption" Also the duration is said to be like semi or full protection. I think the option C should be amended to

Well, I think these accidental uses are a preview of what we will see if B or C is passed(which is likely,) a beta test if you will. Notice that their expiration dates are indefinite, which I believe will be the norm. Full protection by it's nature has to be short termed, ECP is more like the Semi

A good example, digging into the past, would have been the MMA (Mixed martial arts) articles that, for a time, showed up at ANI virtually every week. There was a great deal of disruption from a lot of new accounts and IP's largely due to off wiki forums, so many articles were semi'd however, there
6621:
Now, I see many users have asked that ECP be used only rarely, or when semi-protection fails. But besides the AN notification, nothing in this proposal would actually discourage admins from excessively applying ECP. Although this RfC sells ECP as an alternative to full-protection, ECP could easily
6407:
I strongly object. If this measure is to be used "sparingly", as many supporting option C have indicated, the notifications will be occasional and will not clutter the noticeboard. If ECP is used so frequently that the number of notifications is cluttering the noticeboard, we need to reexamine the

As a disclaimer, I was the one that proposed the addition of the notification requirement during the village pump idea lab discussion. The idea, in my mind, was to require admins to post the levying of ECP on any given article for community review. The exception above means that if the article has

Option B would be a good choice. Sockpuppetry is a huge problem here that need to be dealt with. I don't see the need for option C because we already have simi-protection and pending changes which works fine. Lets not make editing for the newcomers more difficult to contribute to the encyclopedia.
1694:
I joined Knowledge last year and have made somewhere around 100 edits by now. While I feel like this tool would be useful in blocking sockpuppets, the people who it would affect the most would be people like me: good faith editors who aren't very avid and do what they can to help every so often. I

The difficulty is that allows people to suggest changes, but generally those are turned down quickly. To be involved in the discussion about the direction of the article you need access to the talk page. We're going to see a lot of cases of 30/500 being applied to talk pages, which is something I
9679:
Why are the talk pages being placed under the 30/500 restriction. That to me seems quite foolish. It prevents discussion on the article for many editors absolutely. If the article needs protection to prevent vandalism, POV pushing or what have you then that is fine. But to lock editors out of the

The GamerGate article is a good example. Before 30/500 was applied, semi-protection was working. In the two months leading up to the restriction, very few editors who would have failed that restriction were taking part, there was no revdel, and those editors who didn't meet 50/300 were either not

or no CONEXCEPT, I will make it clear that I oppose this level of protection. In the end, it will become another means for the increase of stratification and administrative power, which I do not believe in. It simply is not ArbCom's business to be creating new classes of users by fiat. It's about

The current wording for the time limit clarification is "protection does not differ from semi or other forms of protection." But the semi and full protection are applied very differently, that is, semi protection tends to be longer while full protection is much shorter. I would ask the ECP to be

I agree that this is likely to have an adverse effect. I'm a fairly casual Wikipedian, I've been here since 2007 and thought I'd amassed hundreds of edits - but it turns out to be 94. To me, and I suspect *many* others, 500 edits is the same as full protection. Some of my edits have been gnoming,

This adds another tool to the admin's chest, which could be useful in stopping the sorts of problems that currently slip through the cracks. However, it's only useful if admins can actually use it. The more rules governing its use, the more work it will take for an admin to implement it, and thus
3112:
I trust our admins will use this form of protection wisely, just as we do with other levels. It is nonsensical and contrary to our mission to resort to full protection when the lesser evil 30/500 would adequately control the disruption, and allow more contributors to edit. You might have found me

This was a lengthy RfC and took quite some reading. Thank you for your patience in awaiting a close. First of all, thanks are due to the initiators for getting the discussion underway; it was a discussion that needed to be had at some point and starting with a properly structured RfC gives us the

Right now the uniqueness of the ARBPIA3 allows you to permit the casual good faith editors because not all pages of I/P conflict is physically ECP'ed, that is assuming the established editors wont favor casual editors who support their POV. But it wont be the case for articles with ECP in place,
8905:
All ARBPIA articles fall under 30/500, but new accounts and IPs often edit in the area as most articles are not actually locked down under 30/500. I and other users only care to enforce 30/500 in the topic area for the worst editors and not at all for the casual editor. Under this system serious
8077:
Administrators already have the power to fully protect the article, which is far stronger a protection level than semi or ECP; any "if-then-else" or "if-and-only-if" approach is overly restrictive. Admins who regularly patrol RFPP and are experienced in applying protection should be, by default,
7924:
This may have been answered above but could someone clarify how extended protections are removed? Do they require a consensus at AN or can it be done at the discretion of an administrator? Or is it cannot be removed until it's time limit has expired and what about in the case whereby it has been
5650:
this level of protection would be useful. Sock puppet editors often do pointless edits just to get autoconfirmed, so semi-protection is not a huge barrier for them. I do not see a good reason for restricting this to areas favoured by Arbcom. It is much fairer if it can be applied by community
4546:
I'd like to see this used rarely, only when all lesser options have been exhausted. The concerns about discouragement to new editors, well valid, ignore the fact that higher levels of protection only have more of the same effect. Oh, and no userboxes. This isn't a matter for pride, only safety.
1551:
The reason I say this is that we need to encourage people to contribute to Knowledge. After 11 years as a user with over 20,000 edits I have found that there are folks that show up out of the blue and make positive contributions, we need to welcome and encourage them. On the other hand there are
1186:

933:
I support as limited implementation of protections as possible. As a new(ish) editor, coming across and article with any type of protections is still intimidating, and it definitely discourages me from editing, as I don't want to run afoul of whatever incident led to the protections in the first

To business. Let me fist state the obvious. Of the three options presented here, option C is by far and away the most popular. While closing discussions is not merely a matter of counting heads, administrators are not entitled to a supervote and cannot ignore such a large groundswell of opinion.
10195:
We should specify that users who meet the 30/500 criteria can have any page in their userspace except their talkpage placed under extended confirmed protection upon request as an anti-vandalism/sockpuppetry/defamation measure. The value in allowing new users to edit another editor's userpage is
9050:
I took a random sample of 20 (out of ~120) users who voted for Option C. The result: most accounts were several years old, about 30-40% claimed to have made several thousand edits, and a few were administrators. I'm afraid that the people who are voting for C are not representative of Knowledge
7560:
I'm not sure technical limitations should warrant malpractice. Here we are effecting editor engagement and an article's ability to develop, and that should have priority. Patrollers are quick to re-request the appropriate protection, especially if the disruption is truly that severe; but you're

Can the multitude of people who support Option C, give a few examples of how the current none-semi-full protection system falls short on some articles? In practice, 500/30 has only been used so far as an "indefinite" (or very long duration) measure. I am concerned that this might become the new

Option C is a terrible precedent. Knowledge is the encyclopedia anyone can edit, and Option C purposely works against that. While there are points where semi can fail and full is not sufficient, requiring 500/30, and the current cases outlined by ArbCom seem reason (though I still object to how

The notification needn’t be set in stone; there’s nothing to prevent revisiting the procedure in a few months should it become a waste of time on the one hand, or be deemed inadequate on the other. I think it’s only prudent to have some ‘peer review’ under proposals B & C until a pattern of

Ah, thank you. I understand now. I still don't approve of 500/30 in the cases you support them, but I do agree that the 10 would in theory be an improvement and defend against sockpuppets who amass sleeper accounts, while not blocking any good faith users for whom editing on 10 separate days is

I'm a fairly new editor with less than 500 edits, but I'm not really worried about not being able to edit articles because of ECP. I mainly edit math articles, and only a tiny number of those are even semi-protected. None of the articles I have been interested in editing so far have even been

If option C passes (which is looks like it's on track to), there really needs to be some guidance for admins that ECP should only be used in cases where the page would've been fully protected if ECP didn't exist, and for a duration equivalent to how long the page would've had full protection.

Therefore, pioneering ECP on en.wiki would be beneficial for all (larger) Wikimedia projects, at least in terms of policy making. 3213:. I think that this option is the best of the three, but it should be used as little as possible: after every possible semiprotect or pending changes method has been exhausted, and even then, under strict scrutiny from both admins and non-admins—ideally, almost a one to one ratio. 1930:– I originally supported the creation of 30/500 protection on the assumption that its use wouldn't be expanded beyond Arbcom-initiated areas, and I'm a little disappointed that this is being rushed towards the door of being used as "just another semi-protection level" already... -- 9506:, the protecting admin, who I'm almost certain would consider lowering the length to something in the realm of 3–6 months.

The community most certainly can overturn an arbcom ruling. If it wants to it can entirely get rid of ArbCom. I agree in principle that such a move would be very unlikely to be good for anyone, and it isn't going to happen here, but it can be done and don't go saying otherwise.

As others have said: another tool in the toolkit. If semi-protection doesn't work, this is definitely better than giving full protection to articles as it would allow edit requests to still be fulfilled. ECP isn't used often enough to warrant its existence otherwise, I think.

This is a silly argument; if you choose to use a protection level sub-optimally, that's your choice, but that doesn't mean it's ineffective for improving the encyclopedia. That's like throwing away a bar of gold and using that as your proof that gold isn't worth anything. ~

I support this option. The EC protection should be used only for ARBCOM approved articles. If another article is heavily vandalized, then fully protect and open an ARBCOM case to switch to EC protection. Perhaps ARBCOM should develop a fast-track system for EC protection?

We discussed that (see the talk page). We left it out because anyone is free to bring up anything at AN at any time, including ECP for a page, as evidenced by the discussion that closed earlier this week. This is strictly about administrator discretion using ECP.

We don't need a follow up discussion on what durations to go with for ECP. The philosophy of minimum effective administrative action is already in practice and I have every reason to believe competent admins will do no different with a new form of protection
