Description Arno Lagrange 2006-01-26 06:58:21 UTC
On eo-WP I tested if protecting and unprotecting run well. I could protect a
page [[:eo:GAZ]] and now I can't unprotect it. When I click oon 'unprotect' I
get the protect page again.
Comment 1 Arno Lagrange 2006-01-26 07:04:08 UTC
An other admin on eo:WP experienced the contrary : he wanted to protect a page
[[:eo:Literaturo]] and must do it four times untill he succeded. In the protect
logbook  one see three times 'unprotect' (and he asked does that not work ? )
and the forth time 'protect' 
Comment 2 Brion Vibber 2006-01-26 08:35:22 UTC
The form has changed to better accommodate multiple protection levels (the separate protection against 
page moves only, and the additional limit level for new users which some of the wikis are using). When 
you bring up the form, it shows the current selection: you must choose the new selection. Just pushing 
the submit button won't change the settings.
Comment 3 Rob Church 2006-01-26 09:28:23 UTC
It wouldn't hurt to avoid creating dupes in the protection log when the
protection levels haven't changed, however...
Comment 4 Rob Church 2006-01-26 10:19:01 UTC
Changing focus to match the issue from comment 3.
Comment 5 lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2006-02-14 19:29:34 UTC
Hallo!

It seams that another reason for these "duplicates" (protections with the same
level) happens also if the page does not "refresh" after "action=protect".

This happened to me two times while performing the steps described at
http://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Gangleri/tests/bugzilla/transcluded_MediaWiki_messages/001#steps

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
