To attempt to end a many-year-old edit war, I have indefinitely full-protected the article [[Views of Lyndon LaRouche]].
This all hinges on the word "indefinitely".
Did you simply mean "without taking advantage of the (comparatively new) feature which allows the protector to specify an expiration date"?
Or did you mean "such that the protector intends for it to remain protected until the cows come home?"
The latter would be, as Anthony has put strikingly into perspective, an outrageous alternative to blocking the edit warriors (who will undoubtedly reconvene themselves on a different page).
