When protecting a page in the Arabic Wikipedia, the administrators can't set edit parameter and move parameter separately but both must be the same which is not the case in the English Wikipedia. (For example Talk:Main Page in the English Wikipedia is protected against moves only [move=sysop] but not against editing but in the Arabic Wikipedia the two parameters must be the same, for example: [edit=sysop:move=sysop].) I know this because I am a former administrator in the Arabic Wikipedia. I am not saying that this is a bug but I thought that the developers should know this. Thank you.
Does the "unlock move permissions" check box appear? Is it usable?
I can confirm that the check box does appear and does work correctly on ar.wikipedia.org. Tested in Firefox 2.0 on Mac OS X 10.4 and IE 7 on Windows XP SP 2. (Note that if JavaScript is disabled, the checkbox does not appear, and both columns must always be set independently. The checkbox and the locked mode only appears when JavaScript is enabled.) There is one issue, though, which is the positioning of the checkbox. In Arabic it appears below the lefthand column, instead of being properly aligned along the right edge. It's probably easy to miss if you're not looking for it.
This has been fixed but if you still have a problem, please submit a screenshot so when understand the complaint.
