Versions of edit protection are:
 * Semi-protection: protection of a page against editing by an unregistered user.
 * Full protection: protection of a page against editing by a non-admin.
 * Cascading protection (&rarr; see demo):
 * in combination with full protection: protecting a page against editing by a non-admin, but also protecting images embedded on the page, provided that they are on the same site (not on Commons), and  also applying the same protection to transcluded pages for as long as they remain transcluded in the page (thus it works recursively).
 * Cascade protection does not apply to the targets of file redirects, if the redirect is listed on the protected page (23542).
 * Cascading protection in combination with semi-protection does not make sense and should be avoided (see 8796); applies full protection to transcluded pages for as long as they remain transcluded in the page (again recursively).
 * Move protection is protection of a page against moving by a non-admin.
