This is the list of protected pages on Wikitravel. Administrators who protect a page should list it here with the reason it was protected so that others can see the reasons and comment.

A fully protected page can only be edited by administrators. Semi-protected pages can be edited by any logged-in user, but not anonymous users.

[edit] Permanent full protection

Wikitravel:full text of the Attribution-ShareAlike 1.0 license. This is the license for Wikitravel articles, and must remain verbatim. So, I protected it. -- Evan 07:43, 14 Aug 2003 (PDT)

Wikitravel:full text of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2. Some contributors want to release their work on Wikitravel under dual licenses; this page was added in order to facilitate that. It is protected because it's only supposed to be copied verbatim. -- Evan 09:51, 2 Nov 2003 (PST)

User:JpatokaI. Full protection to thwart dopplegangers. (see discussion)

[edit] Permanent semi-protection

Main Page. Protected against moves only because it is the hardwired entry point to the site and should never be moved. Edits are still allowed by all users. -- Ryan 00:08, 21 Aug 2005 (EDT)

Scratch that, protection currently disallows edits by anonymous users. --Peter ^Talk 07:11, 19 December 2007 (EST)

I have protected the templates used in the main page too. -- Colin 18:14, 31 July 2008 (EDT)

Wikitravel:Local spam blacklist. Unregistered users=block & move=sysop only per discussion (Ryan's comment) at Wikitravel talk:Local spam blacklist/Archive 2005 - February 2008#Semi-protect? --Peter ^Talk

Wikitravel:Travellers' pub — edit=default & move=sysop. This is enough of a main portal where I think we should give it some level of protection against move vandalism. And if I'm not mistaken, there will never be a reason to move it. --Peter ^Talk 00:02, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
