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 Wikia.

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

Trivia

 * While Wikia doesn't have a template protection type, sometime during 2015 or 2016, unregistered users lost the ability to edit templates on Wikia, so that can be compared to the template protection type found on Wikipedia.
 * While Wikia 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 Forces and Wikia Utilities can edit all system messages, since all the messages now need to be white-listed in order for Administrators to edit them. Wikia Helpers regained the ability to edit all system messages as of November 2016.
