WP:PROT

Hi Wetitpig0, I thought I'd just give a courtesy note about my undoing your recent edit at WP:PROT. See Special:Diff/699287690, Special:Diff/728507224, and Wikipedia:Protection policy/Padlocks for what I mean. I believe the red lock is considered dated and not used anymore. — Andy W. (talk · ctb) 00:03, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

In other Wikimedia Projects e.g. Wikisource Header Template, the permanent protection policy is still in use. So I will revert your edit now. Wetit🐷 0 07:26, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

Re [1]: The General Disclaimer is just an example (given in the policy) of a permanently protected page, which uses a gold padlock, not a red padlock. - Evad37 [talk] 07:55, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
Also, see Wikipedia_talk:Protection_policy/Archive_16#Icon_for_fully_protected_pages for the discussion that resulted in the red padlock being removed - Evad37 [talk] 07:58, 9 September 2016 (UTC)
