Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items/content

This page is fully protected with the cascading option enabled. Pages transcluded on this page are highly important templates or pages that require full protection to guard against vandalism. Most of them are also directly full-protected, but this page serves as a safeguard against security leaks and human error. If you would like to make an edit to any of these pages, please use the {{editprotected}} template on their talk pages to get an administrator's attention.

The images listed here are protected even if they are accidentally deleted. Thus no-one can upload a bad image during that time. This also protects the images after they have been restored, since admins sometimes forget to re-protect the images after they have restored them.

Admins sometimes delete protected images by accident, or because they think we don't need them since they exist on Commons. But images are usually locally uploaded and protected here at the English Wikipedia since they are used in an interface message or in some widely used template. Thus these images are high-use and high-risk.
