Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent disruptive editing by unresponsive, IP hopping anonymous editor. AussieLegend (✉) 13:49, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Fully protected for a period of 3 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This is really the lamest of edit-wars between IPs and experience editors (who should know better!) over if/how some places should be wikilinked. I'll drop a note at the article talkpage and hopefully the three hours will suffice to reach an amicable decision. Abecedare (talk) 22:31, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unprotection: Protected due to an IP-hopping vandal, however I deem it necessary for new/Ip users to contact me here.

Temporary full protection Edit war over breaking news on a press conference to be held tomorrow. Article is already semi-protected. The updates are discouraged per WP:BREAKING. In this USA Today source, it says he "will be introduced officially at a news conference Tuesday afternoon, a person familiar with the development told USA TODAY Sports. The person requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the hire until it was announced by the team." Full protection until 0:00, 3 June (UTC) should be sufficient. This version has all the breaking news content removed, which I would recommend be the version that is protected. I am WP:INVOLVED.—Bagumba (talk) 03:30, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note sure about this so will let another admin decide.

  • Comment - Endorsing indefinite semi-protection. This page has been protected several times now for shorter periods, and each time it's unprotected we see IPs continually replace the link with a spurious/phishing/spam link, often edit warring over the same. I think it's time to just make it indefinite (or at least a long period of time, say, 6 months?). — Rhododendrites talk \\ 23:35, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected — 1 month for now, as I was mulling over how best to deal with this (TBH, indefinitely semi-protecting probably isn't the best option, considering this is actually a very specific edit that otherwise might be handled differently under normal circumstances). Although that one IP range is problematic, it's not entirely bad edits otherwise, plus there are more than that one range. The URL (well, all tor extlinks) is technically already spamblacklisted, but since it's nowikied, it doesn't apply in this situation. Of course, the spamblacklist might need to be revised if this is a problem on multiple pages (i.e., step it down or use XLinkBot), but I dunno. It's down to either XLinkBot (if it supports non-extlink text) or an abusefilter of sorts to explicitly deal with this sort of issue (as I can see it happening in the future).

Revere High School (Ohio)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent anon vandalism from the beginnings of may (more or less 30 edits with a ratio 20 vandalisms and 10 rollbacks). Somebody adds not notable people in the list of notable alumni, others try to mask their vandalisms writing fixed typo. Btw, most of the vandalisms are in the infobox, changing names and other. The parameter "viceprincipal" was vandalized several times, changing "John Evans" into "Joseph Stalin". Due to a series of vandalisms, counter-rollbacks, and other vandalisms, this information (John Evans) was lost some days after this rollback (2 May 2015), because ClueBot reverted the 2nd vandalism (11 May), but not the first (10 May, different IP). I discovered it because of strangeness of "Vice principal: Joseph" without surname, clearly a remnant of the "Stalin" vandalisms. So I restored the parameter as of 2 may, after Wikiisawesome's rollback. Btw, for the number of recent vandalisms, perpetrated by a variety of IPs, the loss of an information (ok, is a minor info, but is an info) only retrieved "by chance", I request a temporary semi-pro. A month could be IMHO good: as May was used to vandalize, June may be used as a "break" :-) Thanks for attention and regards. --Dэя-Бøяg 03:19, 5 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite full protection: Persistent vandalism – Target of sockpuppet edits, shouldn't really need to be edited further to begin with. ViperSnake151  Talk  15:14, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • I don't know if I'm actually allowed to make a minor comment here (if I'm not, just remove it), but in any case, while it might be worth protecting the page, only one edit was by a blocked user's sockpuppet, and even then, if it had been by anyone else, I would have been hesitant to call it vandalism. So I just challenge the claim of persistent vandalism. That is all. Dustin (talk) 15:23, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Cheiron Records

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Persistent edit warring between two new editors. I suspect sockpuppetry as well. Please see User_talk:Kinu#Request for help and User_talk:Kinu#Request to ignore and block IP 84.209.76.114 for more background. 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 21:11, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked. I have blocked 84.209.76.114 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) and Music2015 (talk · contribs) for violating the three-revert rule at Cheiron Records, both for 24 hours. As for the other issues: Accusations of sockpuppetry need to be taken to WP:SPI. I am not immediately convinced that either of these users is a sockpuppet; while I wouldn't rule that possibility out, it would probably need a closer inspection. Note that any editor who opens an SPI case must provide strong & clear evidence, without which the case will be dismissed. If this isn't an issue of sockpuppetry, then this is a content dispute which needs resolving. WP:AFD is the correct venue to discuss whether this article should be kept - if the issue is notability, or if the article is suspected to be a hoax/spam, the community should discuss it there. The discussion taking place at User talk:Kinu#Request to ignore and block IP 84.209.76.114 is unhelpful: on top of the ad hominem attacks and unfounded allegations, the basic lack of assuming good faith and civility is not helping. I would request that these two editors, when they resume editing, stop these accusations and try to resolve these issues more productively.

  • Thanks, MelanieN for the notification. Semi-prot would not work in this instance as the user has access to their talk unless that privilege is removed; I would be loathe to remove the user's access at this point. My main issue was the user's probing proxy editing. I'm not convinced that the user knew that was against policy before my notification and, as far as I could tell watching the talk page, they had been careful not to cross the line since my warning. Any admin that looks at the issue and comes to a different conclusion can be assured that I would not have a problem with whatever action they deemed necessary.

I left a WP:COI warning on User talk:72.4.99.115; it was apparently not regarded. I don't know if it's severe enough for semi-protection, but since I also don't want to get too close to WP:3RR, I don't know what else to do other than protect the page and alert others to watch the page. (The user also removes a merge template, also re-adds the same unsourced marketing material, and claims specific living people as clients, "sourced" to other Wikipedia articles that may or may not have proper references, if that's worth anything.) If there's a better way to deal with this, let me know. Closeapple (talk) 05:10, 11 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In a stipulated ruling signed by Hayden, Commerce said he had engaged in, “…fraudulent, deceptive and dishonest practices by participating in a scheme to defraud mortgage lenders.” His inactive real estate license was revoked, and he was “permanently barred from the mortgage originating and servicing industry.”" I'm trying to see the vandalism or BLP violation. --NeilN talk to me 19:54, 10 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@NeilN and Jytdog: I was unable to find any other reference online to any action against Hayden by the Minnesota Dept. of Commerce, beyond this Fox 9 story. That being said, I would generally consider an investigative report by a mainstream network-affiliated TV station to be a reliable source. At this time, I don't think page protection is necessary, but I would refer the question as to whether this source is sufficient to comply with BLP to the BLP noticeboard.

@NeilN:, John D Robertson is a disruptive sock puppet and has since been blocked (as noted above). He and a number of ips (who may or may not be the same person), have been repeatingly removing content. I won't describe this as an edit war as I was reverting vandalism to a BLP. He seemed to have developed a vendetta against me and was reverting all edits I made to the article; these included replaces details removed by ips and John D Robertson, and new referenced new information to reflect the Lenny Henry's knighthood that was officially announced today.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism from an IP user since 2005 ([20] appears to be the first instance), which multiple lengthy semi-protections have failed to stop. The article was most recently semi-protected for 2 years after two separate 1 year semi-protections, and the vandal has returned shortly after each protection ended. Given that this vandal has been at this for almost a decade and consistently returns even after the article is protected for a year or two, I think the article should be indefinitely semi-protected.

Albania–Yugoslav border incident

Semi-protection: IP users have been adding POV information for the last two months which isn't in the reference (just take a look at the revision history). I thought I could handle it but I'm tired of having to revert them. I think Semi-protection is sufficient as it is an issue caused by IP users not registered Wiki users. I think it is worth pointing out that the IPs are based in Serbia which was formerly Yugoslavia, therefore there is nationalist interests for POV pushing. It is also likely that these IPs are socks of blocked users. It is also worth noting that the article was previously semi-protected by HJ Mitchell in November last year due to persistent editing from IP users in Serbia.

Sigmund Freud's views on homosexuality

Semi-protection: After reading some articles concerning homosexuality, I must stress that this article is of utmost importance considering the amount of research Freud has done on the subject. This topic is often censored by many, particularly by the "liberals" or the left, from the United States. Freud is a European social scientist. I put warning labels on the article to attract contributors to help make this article stand out with verifiable sources. Currently, it has no such thing and I question how this article is even still up without adequate sources for so long. I am not a expert in psychology. This is a controversial subject and politically heated subject. I believe Freud's research and his view is important to know considering there are very few, today, that actually have studied it extensively as him. Lots of people, including gays, tend to research Freud to some capacity for knowledge that is all too rare today. JLanex (talk) 20:32, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Acid Rap

Semi-protection for moves: Bit of a long story, but there's been a concentrated effort to move the album article for Acid Rap to different titles in order to turn the page into a redirect for Esham. It's currently at ACID RAP (a WP:POINT-y move by another editor) and needs to be moved back to Acid Rap and after that's done I'd like for this to be protected against moves. This has been somewhat ongoing since 2013 and odds are high that this will continue if it's not semi'd against moves. I'd do this myself except that I'm somewhat involved (back in 2013 mostly). See the article talk page for more explanation. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:47, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Basically it looks like the moves have been fairly POINT-y ones that are made by an extremely small group of people with nearly identical arguments. I don't think that this is sockpuppetry (at least not intentional sockpuppetry) but I do think that the amount of people that specifically want to have Acid Rap redirect to Esham is extremely small. So far the current move has been extremely disruptive, enough to where the main editor in question was blocked for accusing Koala15 of edit warring for reverting their moves.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IPs keep adding vandalism, not official until 1 july. TeaLover1996 Talk to me ☏ 15:47, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Your definition of vandalism. OK, maybe he will only join on 1 July, but he has actually signed so it would not hurt to have the intro read "...who plays for Southampton...". Much more serious, the player only played for Sporting Clube de Portugal B in the year 2013 (not 2014) and we are not supposed to write in the future tense in an encyclopedia, but you don't allow me to compose/correct any of that.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism from an IP-hopping vandal who is hellbent on inserting original research supported solely by various petulant reiterations of "because I said so."

Unprotection: The page was improperly protected. It was protected with the summary "No reason for an IP to need to edit this".

Mufaddaliyat

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism - Continued long-term reverting of random edits of mine. In the past month, a number of disruptive editors have either been banned or chased away after trying to push various points of view. I'm not sure who it is, but I'm sure this is related to that; multiple different IP addresses keep randomly reverting all of my edits across multiple specific articles, but don't seem to follow me onto other articles. MezzoMezzo (talk) 04:11, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The same problem is occuring on the following articles:
Both myself and other editors have simply reverted every time the various different IP addresses have done this, so the issue is being handled, but it's very time consuming and I find that I don't have much time for more constructive edits I had been planning on. This issue was noted by other users three weeks ago and it's still going on. MezzoMezzo (talk) 04:11, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – According to the public log, this page had indefinite semi-protection going back to September 2011. Then there was a period of edit warring earlier this month that led to the page being fully protected for a week, but when that full protection ended, so did the semi-protection. Not sure what the circumstances were back in 2011 that led to the indefinite semi-protection, but I'm not thinking the semi-protection was to have expired.

NeilN, yes, people who were adding "former" are unconfirmed, but people who were reverting it are confirmed, so I think there is no need to consider our(confirmed users) version is right because those unconfirmed users were not doing any vandalism, infact "Bombay" is "former" name of "Mumbai", thats why I requested full protection.

Arctic Ambient

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent IP vandalism. Users from the site RateYourMusic have been coming here to attempt to delete or in other ways damage this article with false accusations of research on the subject and incorrect sourcing. The first time they attempted to delete the entire article with no sources, the second time a user added a ludicrous number of citation requests, even in places that already had valid citations. I have kept some of these that could indeed use more sources, but their attempts to destroy the legitimacy of the genre should be seen as vandalism, and I'd like at least some sort of temporary protection to avoid this in the near future, whilst I add additional sources to it.

Indefinite semi-protection: continual disruptive IP edits every time the article is taken off protection (format changing without discussion or consensus; inserting a flagicon to the infobox; not following MOS:LEAD by adding birthplace, etc.) This will be the third time in a month I've requested PP, but now I believe it should remain for much longer than a few days or weeks—the IP will only return again otherwise.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing, and potential vandalism by single user, using several IPs - user makes same edits continuously, and is consistently reverted and it is explained to him what was wrong with edits. - Editor edits with out any sources or references, and shows a bias point of view in the Tesla Motors section, removing sourced information, adding unsourced information, and deliberately removing part of URLs of references, so that original version's reference link comes up a broken.

2012 Aurora shooting

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – There is an ongoing edit war on this article concerning conspiracy theories that surround this incident and whether to include this material. I think more than semi-protection is called for because some of the edits are by autoconfirmed editors. This is likely to go on at least until the trial concludes. Liz Read! Talk! 21:15, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - Since only one or two users are adding this material, this would be better handled with blocks instead of protection or pending changes, I think (PC level 1 is less protection, not more, and PC level 2 isn't used). I've left a note for the user and I'll monitor the article. --Bongwarrior (talk) 21:49, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2015 NBA draftees

Semi-protection: None of the players drafted in last night's NBA draft have actually signed contracts with their respective teams, so those teams are not to be listed in their infoboxes yet. However, many users keep adding them because they do not understand this, despite many of the players' articles having hidden notes in the infobox that explicitly say not to add the players' teams until the player has signed a contract with that team. As it is mainly anonymous IPs and newly-registered accounts making these sorts of edits, we could greatly lower the amount of these edits by semi-protecting the pages of every new NBA draftee. --A guy saved by Jesus (talk) 23:09, 26 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Towns Semi-protected one week by Glen
  • Russell Already protected. three days by NeilN
  • Okafor Declined as there seem to be sufficient eyes on it and a lack of recent disruption.
As for 'and so on (all other new NBA draftees)': nope, nope, nope. Be specific in your requests. Instead, you're asking us to go through > 55 articles, and in case you hadn't noticed, there's a backlog here. I like to think I'm a patient person, but the two requests of this kind that I've seen in the last few days, asking admins to go through categories or lists to see what needs to be locked, is two too many. KrakatoaKatie 20:59, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
To expand on what KrakatoaKatie is saying, when you add properly formatted requests here, admins can expect you've given the article history at least a cursory glance and the links give us an easier way to check what we have to check. --NeilN talk to me 21:05, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

K. Banerjee Centre of Atmospheric and Ocean Studies

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Repeated recreation by probable COI contributors of an article that was deleted per AfD in 2008 and, as a compromise, recently redirected. This provides some background. Please note that numerous related articles have been deleted in the past, and some have I think also been salted. Sitush (talk) 13:47, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies. Hoary has now applied protection for a limited period. - Sitush (talk)
  • Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 14:08, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And my apologies to Sitush for not having noticed the request here. But if anyone is wondering what this is about, see this MfD and the numerous similar pages that this mentions, this earlier version of the article Prem Chand Pandey; this AfD of that very version, and very likely more that I haven't yet discovered. -- Hoary (talk) 14:09, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Already done. NeilN talk to me 17:50, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Shonda Rhimes

Temporary semi-proection: Persistent IP vandalism. People keeping adding "Life ruiner" to her list of occupations. I've personally reverted it at least five times just within the last week. The page was previously semi-protected on April 26th, 2015, but that protection expired on May 3rd. It was again protected on May 14, but that protection expired after only four hours. The page is still getting vandalized nearly every day. Librarynerds (talk) 14:55, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Librarynerds, the previous protection was for one month, not four hours NeilN talk to me 15:29, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

David Carradine

Pending-Changes: Due to the controversy of this person regarding his death and such, I feel like people who are unregistered or new to Wikipedia be subject to review for their edit so content that is verified with sources can be submitted rather than have people post personal opinions on the death of a person. Vmkcheat (talk) 07:39, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. There's no evidence that that has been happening in the recent past. Policy on page protection is only to protect where there's evidence of edits requiring protection, not predicting it. GedUK  11:13, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

PC Master Race

Article is the target of canvassing from the subreddit /r/pcmasterrace and /r/KotakuInAction/ to erase reliably sourced information describing its entomology. [51] [52] Most notably a sentence sourced to PC Gamer in which the original 'Master Race' context is made plain (diff) A report concerning one Wikipedia user who appears to be co-ordinating his editing with /r/pcmasterrace has been filed on the Administrators' noticeboard (here) but no advice or assistance has been forthcoming. — TPX 11:08, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Non-admin comment: It is unclear what level of protection you want, but I would assume it looks like you need semi-protection.—cyberpowerChat:Limited Access 11:35, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Fully protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. That's an edit war. Keep using the talk page to reach an agreement on the content. GedUK  12:17, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Edit warring by a shifting IP making no discussion beyond incoherent "don't reverted, vandalism warning" edit summaries. McGeddon (talk) 07:49, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Pending changes: BLP policy violations – Persistent addition of unsourced content. SLBedit (talk) 10:42, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Non-admin comment - " To me, this seems to look like a new page involving the biography of a living person regarding his career and such. As I am looking forward to request protection for pages regarding the biographies of the people whether they are living or not, my request is processing due to it's controversial claim. Wikipedia's common rule is "This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons", and because most articles I see can be about living people, it is best I support your request if it can be indefinite, but, as I see you are a reviewer, do you think it may be a better option to semi protect the page? I'll support either decision, whether indefinite or not. Vmkcheat (talk) 10:53, 30 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Light heavyweight

Temporary semi-protection: highly antagonistic IP with WP:SPA tendencies who goes around changing formats without consensus and claiming "vandalism" upon revert. Has recent previous history of WP:NOTHERE, and most recently "contributed" to a discussion with this bit of pleasantry. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 22:41, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Declined Concerned user has not resumed edit warring since being warned, and is participating in the talk page discussion. If you feel involved I'd report to WP:ANEW should disruption continue — MusikAnimal talk 17:31, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Thank you, MusikAnimal. At the time the request was made, the editor hadn't participated on the Talk page and the disruption was on-going. — Malik Shabazz Talk/Stalk 21:48, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Plarium

Unprotection: There's currently a draft up for this article at Draft:Plarium. In order for it to be accepted (if it gets accepted) this'll need unprotecting.

The page was created 3 times before deletion over the course of ~1 year. I don't think it'll need protecting anymore. --Anarchyte 06:02, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@RHaworth: Pinging the protecting admin. --Anarchyte 08:58, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • So when a version exists that Anarchyte is happy with, I will unprotect. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:36, 27 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Not done Anarchyte, per RHaworth, just drop a note on his page when it is ready for approval. kelapstick(bainuu) 21:19, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dynamex

Unprotection: Since the article was initially create-protected in 2007, it is now actually notable as Amazon uses it to fulfill Prime same-day deliveries in the markets where it is available. Gparyani (talk) 19:09, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Being used by Amazon does not automatically confer notability. If and when there is a suitable draft ready for prime time, the title can be unprotected. kelapstick(bainuu) 21:12, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. There are multiple confirmed users contributing to the recreated article, implying some disagreement on whether it should be redirected. A discussion should take place first before we shut out the good-faith edits from anonymous users — MusikAnimal talk 17:39, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
