Description Basvb 2013-06-21 21:45:52 UTC
When protecting (beveiligen) a page the action gets marked as a small edit. See [1] for an example edit. The same goes for unprotecting a page. It seems unlogical to mark a protection as a small change as it is quite an important action to a page. The topic was discussed [2] on the Dutch Wikipedia on a moderator request page, but it seems that this is not something a sysop can change.

Is it possible to change protections to mayor/normal edits instead of small edits. 
And if yes, can this be done for the Dutch Wikipedia? (Maybe this is considered a mistake and should be changed on all wikis, but I believe I'm not in any position to decide about that).

I'm not sure whether I selected the correct Component, please correct when necessary.
