Semi-protect request

Since Sunak will resign as Leader of the Conservative Party, I think its time we change the protection into semi-protection Richie1509 (talk) 21:38, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Guys, can someone please do semi-protection please? Richie1509 (talk) 06:53, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Richie1509: - You'd be better off requesting this at Wikipedia:Requests for Page Protection. You are 900 times more likely to get a response there. MadGuy7023 (talk) 19:21, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OK, thanks. But because I just want the protection to become semi, how do I do that? Richie1509 (talk) 11:18, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article is already extended-protected. — Czello ^(music) 11:21, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup lede

Can we maybe change the lede a bit since he is not the party leader anymore, it probably wouldn't be so relevant that he was Leader of the Opposition for less than four months. By other former Prime Ministers we don't say he was the Prime Minister as well as Leader of the Opposition for a bit? Yeshivish613 (talk) 20:55, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
