Wikipedia's protection
editprotected "The commercial subsequently prompted responses from Wikipedia and Google, with the former locking its article from editing by unregistered users": There is no way, as far as I'm aware, one can configure MediaWiki protection settings to prevent only IPs from editing. Per the actual protection log, on April 12 it was semi'd, then extended-confirmed-protected (from editing) on April 14 &mdash; hours before this was published, and also hours after the most recent source update. Note, WaPo didn't mention protection, USA Today characterized it as being protected from "new edits", and The Verge said "authorized administrators" were the only users allowed to edit the article, so our description is not even supported by the sources. How about a correction along the lines of "This article says Wikipedia's Whopper article was protected from "unregistered users"; it was also protected from new registered users." You'd think, of all outlets, we'd get this right. Heavy Water (talk) 23:40, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ I guess we at least were more correct than other outlets. Tweaked the wording. —chaetodipus (talk &middot; contribs) 00:14, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
