Wikipedia:Protected titles/Historical list of titles

This Wikipedia page has been superseded by MediaWiki's native protection of nonexistent pages (applied in the same manner as ordinary protection, also see Special:Protectedtitles) and the title blacklist MediaWiki extension and is retained primarily for historical reference.

This page is about protecting nonexistent pages against creation.

Wikipedia welcomes new encyclopedia articles.
Sometimes, however, we have debated a subject and decided that it currently does not merit inclusion in Wikipedia. Pages listed here have been created and deleted multiple times. If you wish to create an article at one of these titles and have reliable sources on which to base it, you are invited to ask at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Sysops: To ensure protection against creation, please delete pages before adding their titles to the list or purge this page's cache (not the cache of a "List" page) immediately following the deletions.

The old protected title system has been deprecated. These pages are maintained as static lists to allow them to be found via Special:Whatlinkshere when trying to track down when/why a protected nonexistent page was originally protected.

Wikipedia:Protected titles/XRumer spambot, for any title that ends with "index.php" or "/", or otherwise made by spambot

Wikipedia:Protected titles/Wikipedia-related, for cross-namespace redirects and other inappropriate Wikipedia-related pages in the article namespace.

Instructions for using this page

This page is kept for historical and exceptional reasons. Deleted titles may be protected just like other pages now.
Only administrators are able to list titles here. To request that a deleted title be protected, please list it, with the reason for the request, at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection.
Instructions for administrators:
- Delete the page to be protected.
- Edit the title list for the current month.
- Enter the title in alphabetical order.
- Use {{Protected title}}, with the parameters {{protected title|pg=pagename|reason=reason|ns=namespace|talk=yes/no|commons=yes/no}}. Only the first parameter is required. For more information on using this template, see Template talk:Protected title.
- For images or categories, you MUST use the namespace parameter as well, or the protection will fail. This is because images and categories are linked to in a nonstandard way ([[:Image)
