Category:WikiDevi pages semi-protected against vandalism

This is an administration category. It is used for administration of the WikiDevi project and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages that are not articles, or it groups articles by status rather than content. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a hidden category. It is not shown on its member pages, unless the corresponding user preference 'Show hidden categories' is set.

This category contains pages which have been semi-protected to prevent vandalism and other unconstructive editing. This is done when a page has been repeatedly vandalized by many users, or when such vandalism is anticipated. (Vandalism by a small number of users is more easily dealt with by blocking the users responsible.) This protection is usually temporary, although pages that are vandalized very frequently, such as WikiDevi, are indefinitely semi-protected. Semi-protection prevents a page being edited by anonymous and newly registered users. Very visible pages such as the Main Page are fully protected, which allows only administrators to edit them; see Category:WikiDevi pages protected against vandalism for pages which have been protected for this reason.

Use {{pp-vandalism}} to add a page to this category. This should only be done if the page is in fact semi-protected – adding the template does not in itself protect the page.
