Wikipedia Padlocks

This is a gallery displaying the padlocks that are or were used on Wikipedia to represent various protection types that Wikipedia has, several of which are also found on Fandom.

Note that only the first six protection types listed are also found on Fandom, though there are some equivalents to some of the protection types not found on Fandom. Enjoy! :)

Trivia

 * While Fandom doesn't have a template protection type, sometime during 2015 or 2016, unregistered users lost the ability to edit templates on Fandom, so that can be compared to the template protection type found on Wikipedia.
 * While Fandom doesn't have a permanent protection type, MediaWiki pages cannot be edited by non-administrators, regardless whether they have been manually protected or not.
 * As of August 2015, only Volunteer Spam Task Force members and Fandom Utilities can edit all system messages, since all the messages now need to be whitelisted in order for Administrators to edit them.
 * Fandom Helpers regained the ability to edit all system messages as of November 2016. Since their introduction in May 2019, Wiki Managers have been able to edit all MediaWiki messages.
