[edit] Helpme question

How do I protect a page against changes, or get emailed if people do make changes to a page? {{helpme}}

Hello Mersia, you cannot get notified via email if someone changes a page, sorry. Wikipedia is open to millions of editors, and that would just be a huge thing, to email anyone when changes are made. Some articles have hundreds of changes a day! As far as requesting page protection, please review the protection policy. Page protection is a last resort, and done in extreme cases of vandalism, or in cases where all other methods have failed to resolve a content dispute. If you feel a page is being repeatedly disrupted by more than one user, and it is not a content dispute, (which should be taken to the talk page for the article to try to resolve prior to going to protection), then you can request protection by following the instructions at requests for page protection.
