Discussion

I want to do this with my own account because protection can only be done by admins. I will use the standard Pywikibot protect.py script with minor changes because the current script does not support 'templateeditor' protection level. 4nn1l2 (talk) 01:35, 9 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Question Looks good, thank you for taking care of this! Just: What about modules? --Marsupium (talk) 13:03, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Marsupium: Few (64) modules are fully protected on Commons. That being said, I added eligible modules (47) to the downgrade list too. 4nn1l2 (talk) 19:00, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
