This category is used for administration of the Wikipedia project, and is not part of the encyclopedia. It contains pages which are not articles, or groups articles by status, rather than content.
Description:
This category contains pages which have been fully protected to prevent vandalism and other unconstructive editing. This is usually done in cases where a page is particularly visible, such as Main Page, or has been subject to a very large amount of vandalism. Full protection prevents a page being edited except by administrators. In most cases, semi-protection (which prevents a page being edited by anonymous and newly registered users) is sufficient to deal with vandalism; see Category:Semi-protected against vandalism for pages which have been semi-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 protected – adding the template does not in itself protect the page.
