Admin Forum:Is this the right place to request page protection or in the alternative to become an administrator?

A user has deleted a page I created and to my surprise there was no way for me to revert the deletion. All of the administrators, sysops and staff I have informed of the deletion and from whom I requested reversion I suppose were more concerned at the time about the Occupy Oakland events. I have recovered a copy to the page, however, along with all four comments which are supportive. I need the page to be protected either by an administrator of by becoming an administrator if I am going to recreate it so that I can protect it myself. Otherwise the user who deleted it will just delete it again. Thanks. --imho 10:53, November 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Another administrator can protect delete a page even if it's protected. 1358  (Talk)  11:06, November 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Xd: I take it you mean delete? Anyway, if the page was deleted by an Admin, you should ask them why. Becoming an admin yourself or protecting the page won't help much. - Tjcool007 (Talk) 11:15, November 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I do. Thanks. :S 1358  (Talk)  23:45, November 5, 2011 (UTC)
 * Pages are deleted all the time. You should ask the user who deleted the page why it was deleted if you don't know.
 * It seems you landed in a sort of edit war on this wiki with the admin. That admin does not think your recipe is living up to the standards set on the wiki, and you think that this is a healthy recipe, which should be added.
 * Since you already consulted staff on this issue, i think i leave it at that. I do think that 'healthy' is debatable however and is subject to different insights depending on background and culture.
 * Hi imho, WikiPim is correct -- this seems to be a difference of opinions. The admin has told you why the recipe was deleted and it sounds as though she is not going to change her stance. Normally, we do not step in on these sorts of disputes on wikis.
 * Perhaps your recipe, Prison Diet Plan Gruel is best suited for another recipe wiki? You are also free to create your own recipe wiki if you find that Healthy Recipe wiki is not a community you wish to be a part of. As for protecting pages -- most pages on wikis are not protected unless they are main pages that are preventing vandalism. As XD and Tj have mentioned they can be unprotected by an admin as well. Good luck! --Meighan http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog) 23:42, November 5, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, first I realize now that each wiki has a founder and the founder can do whatever they want so if they do not like something it does not matter. This was a wake-up call so I won't post anything else to this wiki and having learned this I have decided to start my own wiki. As for what is healthy and what is not as a matter of opinion one of the reasons I began creating recipes in the first place is because I discovered how narrow the diet plan range actually is due to the small difference between minimums and maximums for all macronutrients. The user who deleted the recipe believes in the MyPlate plan as if by magic random amounts of fruits, grains, vegetables, protein and dairy will give you a meal of 30% fat, 55% carbohydrates and 15% protein such that serving amount is not important. Moving on the second thing that allows me to concede and walk away from this is that I was able to recover the complete recipe data plus the 4 comments other users made and repost to my healthy recipe talk page which I hope is protected. That done I have also started a new wiki entitled "Grocery Receipt Wiki" for all users to upload copies of their own grocery receipts so as to be able to compare them with the official rate of inflation. In January bread at my store was $1.88 while today it is $2.88. You can look at most any grocery receipt and see that inflation for bread is not 3.25% since January but 53%. Upload your receipts so we can keep track of inflation from all over the country not just from where I live. If you are rich and price does not matter you can still do something for the poor by helping to track inflation in this way. Thanks. --imho 11:13, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * What a founder can do totally depends on the wiki. On most established wikis the founder is just a normal bureaucrat who has to abide policy just like the rest of the administration team. 1358  (Talk)  12:17, November 6, 2011 (UTC)
