Unprotect
Hiya Ged! I noticed you've protected Richard Scarry because of persistent vandalism. I would like to request that the protection is lifted so that this person is able to improve the article. Arcandam (talk) 20:05, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
- I only protected the page about a year ago for one day, it's not protected now. Judging by the comments on that IP's talk page, the reason their edits aren't going through is that they're trying to link to a site on the blacklist. I've not looked at it in detail, but we ideally would need some different sources. GedUK 19:37, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks! Arcandam (talk) 19:41, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

Help
Hi Ged, sorry to bother you but I have a problem. Basically I need an admin to do a roll back on a user's edit on The Jonathan Ross Show. They've completely messed it up by making lots of edits, most if not all of which is nonsense. Due to the ammount of edits they've made, it'd be difficult for me to undo each one. Kind regards, Mythical Curse (talk) 17:16, 2 May 2012 (UTC).
- Sorry, I've been off wiki for a bit. Is this done now? GedUK 11:48, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry for the incredibly slow reply, i've had exams. Yes, I found another admin that could do it :). Thanks, Mythical Curse (talk) 17:07, 29 May 2012 (UTC).
