i'm new, how do you edit a semi-protected article? Dailen05 (talk) 16:16, 18 May 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Dailen05:WP:SEMI says "Semi-protected pages cannot be edited by unregistered users (IP addresses), as well as accounts that are not autoconfirmed (accounts that are at least four days old and have made at least ten edits to Wikipedia) or confirmed." You can do some general editing of unprotected articles to get your edit count up a bit, then you could do it yourself, or you can submit an edit request. You might find the Wikipedia:Teahouse helpful. SchreiberBike | ⌨ 17:21, 18 May 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

this page is for some bizarre reason semi-protected, despite it having relatively low traffic and no large draw for vandals Dailen05 (talk) 19:37, 14 June 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
