CyberCoders

Semi-protection: High level of IP disruption.

Back in May, a 'Public Perceptions' section was added based on original research and blog posts. Another user and myself have removed the content for those reasons, and I left a message on the talk page explaining the removal and invited the editor(s) to respond. Since adding the message, different IP editors have restored the content three times ([7] [8] [9]), with their only response on the talk page being a personal attack. Based on the latter message, it looks like it may be one person utilizing multiple IP addresses to push this. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:00, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Gone with the Wind (film)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – There have been a spate of non-neutral edits by SPA accounts and some possible socking. F. Dav. Greece started the disruption (see [10], [11] and [12]. After warning the editor on his talk page this editor suddenly stopped implementing the edits and a new account, Aderta Milka, took over (see [13] and [14]). The sole purpose of these SPAs seems to be to remove sourced criticism from the article. I initiated a discussion at Talk:Gone_with_the_Wind_(film)#POV_editing_in_the_lead but neither account has responded to it. Betty Logan (talk) 00:02, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yu-Gi-Oh!

Unprotection: Has been indefinitely semi'd since 2010, would probably be a good idea to experiment with pending changes given the franchise isn't as popular or visible as it used to. No prejudice against re-upping if excessive vandalism resumes. If the level of vandalism is low after a few months, it would probably then be a good idea to fully unprotect the article. Protecting admin has not edited since May 2017. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 14:30, 2 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please could somebody take a look at the history and decide whether semi-protection would be justified. The input from IPs over the course of its edit history has been predominantly unhelpful - but I don't know whether it reaches the threshold that would justify deterring potential bona fide anon edits.

Randy Quaid

Indefinite extended confirmed: BLP policy violations – I am uncertain that this is the correct type of protection to be requesting, so please feel free to consider other types if the requested type seems incorrect. I am an OTRS agent and we have a longstanding ticket by Mr. Quaid (VRTS ticket # 2017062610021476 in which Mr. Quaid has repeatedly asked that his name in this article be shown as "Randy Randall Rudy Quaid", which is his birth name. However, a number of other editors (not IP users, but users with logged in accounts) insist on changing it to "Randall Rudy Quaid" (as though "Randy" was short for "Randall"). This has caused Mr. Quaid a fair amount of frustration and stress, and even the leaving of notes within the article instructing editors NOT to change the name away from "Randy Randall Rudy Quaid" have been ignored on more than one occasion. I am not interested in protecting the content of the entire article, I am only interested in protecting the lead sentence, but I understand that this cannot be done. Instead, I have to ask for some more general kind of protection, but one that will not allow even logged in editors to change the content of the article at will so that the subject's name cannot be changed again. We have seen ample evidence at OTRS that his name is Randy Randall Rudy Quaid, and it would be nice if the article could finally and more or less permanently reflect that. Thanks.

@Nihonjoe:, As I mentioned before, the draft was rejected 6 months ago. The new draft satisfies all the notability conditions according to me and I was about to accept it when the AFCH script mentioned that it is create protected and I would have to request un-protection before accepting. So you have put me in a Catch 22 situation wherein I cannot accept the draft because it is create protected and create protection won't be removed till the draft is accepted. Hope you will reconsider. Jupitus Smart 04:30, 4 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Todd McFarlane- and Spawn-related articles

Indefinite semi-protection: Highly persistent IP editor engaging in vandalism and actionable BLP violations (for nearly a year on some of these articles). Repeated temporary protection has failed as a deterrent.

Fully protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I was originally on the fence with protecting, but the fact that this article is about a conflict between countries over the Mid East and looks to be over religion, this might be argued to be within a topic under discretionary sanctions (still reading and will verify for sure). Because of this, I decided to proceed with the full protection for two days. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:31, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Reduction in protection level: BLP of a prominent politician with a very poor and unacceptably sourced (one tabloid, one citation that doesn't support the claim made at all) lede locked in for a week to attempt to resolve a brief but apparently acrimonious edit war (which FWIW I had no involvement in). Page protected by @CambridgeBayWeather: which had the unfortunate effect of preserving the unacceptable lede. @Richie333: commented the lock seemed a long one at the time[32] If administrators think it's too early to reopen, I suggest reverting the lede to a stable earlier version (e.g the brief lede here [33] ) for the week: this might be too short but at least it's uncontentious. Dtellett (talk) 20:28, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'll leave this for a second opinion. If another admin wants to reduce, remove the protection or revert it isn't a problem with me. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 20:35, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@CFCF: who performed the Redirect you wish to undo. — Maile (talk) 23:53, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The redirect was part of a longer discussion and I see no reason to undo it. The template serves all the functionality of the older two templates combined with the added benefit of easier maintenance. I will comment further on the talk page. No rationale has been given here at all. A restoral would lead to two templates that were exact copies in everything but name.
I regret having missed your response on my talk page UnitedStatesian, but I would appreciate if you withdrew this request — and instead commented on why you wish to restore an exact copy of the template under a different name. If there is any missing functionality, that can be quickly resolved.
The articles you point to such as Amazon did not change at all as a result of the merge. All functionality is duplicated. Carl Fredrik talk 10:04, 9 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Allen Iverson

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent disruptive editing – User:Bozalegenda is making disruptive edits because it is in his opinion that the information added (specifically 3x3 basketball career history info) should not be. Although he said they shouldn't be on the career, he gave no citation or link to a Wikipedia article about it, and other wikipedia pages such as Marko Savić (basketball), Dušan Domović Bulut and most notably Danilo Mijatović who has played both normal basketball and 3x3 basketball yet both are listed under his carrer. It might be mentioned that he technically had retired, but then the besiktas team should be deleted as well and so with every other nba player who "retired" and then played again (see MJ).

I don't know if he's doing it in good or bad faith, hence I assume it's in good faith neither way the information isn't less accurate nor is it less important. It might be important to note, i'm not the first complaining about his disruptive edits behaviour, but who am I to judge?. Remi1771 (talk) 03:57, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done I suggest you explain your position on the articles talk page and discuss it with the user who disagrees. Don't continue to edit war, but if the user doesn't respond to your message on the talk page you can revert him/her and say "see talk page" in the edit summary. If the other user responds on the talk page, keep discussing it and try to reach a consensus.
If the other user is not discussing it, but continues to revert your edits, I suggest taking it to the edit warring notice board.

If he disrupts the discussion he can be blocked for disruptive editing. Ks0stm (TCGE) 03:16, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I take that back, some of their comments on the talk page are reprehensible enough that I'm going to rangeblock now. Ks0stm (TCGE) 03:19, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I trust you have watchlisted the talk page, Ks0stm. He has used a regular IP along with the IPv6. Thank you. I was not going to participate in that toxic environment, but I will now go to the talk page and start a new discussion, pinging the other involved editors. Thanks for the revdel. John from Idegon (talk) 04:08, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Ks0stm: You forgot to put the {{anonblock}} template! I was not going to do it, because it would imply that I made the block, which cannot be the case, because I am not an admin, but I am just reminding you that you forgot to put this on the IP's talk page. UpsandDowns1234 (🗨) 05:39, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@UpsandDowns1234: [42] is where I put it, but with IPv6 it's kinda hard since they're so dynamic that they may have a new IP by the time they log on next. Ks0stm (TCGE) 09:13, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The editor in the minority does seem to be editing in good faith, as are you, and he is adding sources which you revert out. I don't see a good guy/bad guy, just differing opinions.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Hong Kong hospital articles subject to long-term, continuous disruptive editing from many different IP addresses. Citobun (talk) 15:23, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. @Citobun: All of these look to be content disputes between you and various IP editors. Protecting these articles is unwarranted at the moment, and you should consider talking to them on the talk pages of the various hospital articles to try to come to a conclusion. Also, indefinite protection is almost never the first length of time of protection; we work up to indefinite following consecutive shorter periods of time. Anarchyte (work | talk) 15:28, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I have tried to open a discussion, i.e. here: User talk:203.145.95.1. The user kept at it despite my messages, so realistically I don't see what difference it would make to leave messages on all the hospital articles also. Secondly I am not the only user that has questioned IP's edits here. Citobun (talk) 15:32, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Citobun: Would you be able to link the other user's attempts to contact the IPs? I can't see it on the talk page you've listed, or on the talk page of any of the hospital articles. I'm fine with reconsidering, and Biblioworm has already protected one of them for 1 month. @Oshwah and KrakatoaKatie: what do you think? Anarchyte (work | talk) 15:35, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Content dispute aside, just looking at the rate of editing on the article's history page shows that there definitely isn't enough persistent disruption (let alone edits) to justify protection of any kind here. There have been only 10 edits made to this article in the last three months - only two of which were made this month. I agree with Anarchyte and his decision to decline this request. There may be other articles where this is a difference case and that protection is warranted, but this article isn't one of them and we don't protect articles preemptively. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:49, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Adding to my response: I do see that the IP mentioned in this report (203.145.95.1) also edited Tuen Mun Hospital, an article that has been edited a significant number of times in the past week alone. I haven't looked into the edits in-depth yet nor have I determined if the article should be protected, but it is worth a look to see if it does. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:56, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I guess other users haven't contacted the IPs directly, just expressed the same concerns as me in the form of edit summaries, as at Tin Shui Wai Hospital. Citobun (talk) 16:00, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Permanent full protection: Persistent edit wars, vandalism, disruptive editing, BLP violations, promotional editing and peacocktry.

Temporary move protection: Page title dispute/move warring – Edit-warring over redirect. . Robert McClenon (talk) 16:47, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Just a move protection will do nothing, since there's no actual moving involved. This should be protected regularly and not just from moves. SkyWarrior 16:50, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
True, since the real problem is redirect warring. However, full protection is undesirable. Maybe blocks are a better idea. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:09, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Eh, maybe not yet. There are eight edits to the page and seven distinct editors; the amount of reverts total two, maybe three, all by different editors. I think this should be closed as no action taken, at least for now until (and if) more action happens. SkyWarrior 18:39, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Matrix

Indefinite full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – This page, and others but this is the most prominent work of theirs, will never not be a target for disruptive editing over the gender/sexual identity of the filmmakers. The persistent problem and its undoing account for probably 60-80% of all edits, this should be given an indefinite protection. Notes in the editing space are completely ineffectual in combating the changes to "Sisters" etc and the disruptive edits resume as soon as the temporary protection is lifted.

Indian soap opera

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Certain editors (under an IP) keep making disruptive edits. For example, changing things like 'at least 2,000' to '2,000+', and changing 'and' to '&'. There are many more. Persistently adding ordinals to dates is one. As they edit under IPs, it is difficult to warn them. I have tried with a couple. I must say, I suspect that it is the same person (or certainly the same group of people), as the edits are so similar. As it is, I have made sure the page is MoS-compliant. Somebody (maybe me, when I have enough time) needs to check the references. This will take an hour or two. Thank you. Sb2001 talk page 13:50, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Todd McFarlane- and Spawn-related articles

Semi-protection and/or range blocking: Highly persistent IP editor engaging in long-term vandalism and fraud, including BLP issues. Haphazard short-term protection of individual articles in this group, and short-term blocks of individual IPs, have proven ineffective as a deterrent. These articles – along with the following articles (some of which are currently protected) – constitute a collective target: if any of them is left unprotected he will continue to vandalize it. Most of these are infrequently-edited articles where any negative side-effects of blocking this vandal's IP ranges and/or of indefinite protection from IP editing altogether, would be minimal.

It appears that someone has also submitted a draft - Draft:Lil Pump - however, that draft would need a substantial improvement to show notability which is why I started one from scratch. --DoubleuWW (talk) 08:18, 15 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ahhhh. Got it. I obviously didn't read the instructions very well. Leaving a message there now. --DoubleuWW (talk) 00:10, 16 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
At this point I still think it should be submitted through AFC, referencing the declines at the other draft. I wouldn't object to unprotection by another admin who works more specifically with music articles, though, so long as he's aware of the history of the sockfarm promoting this person. —Cryptic 20:26, 17 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Cryptic - Wow! I figured there was some drama with the page since it was protected but didn’t realize it went that far. I have done quite a bit of work on music pages so I am sure the topic meets WP:NMUSIC but that doesn’t seem to be the issue here. Looks like creating the page would actually be assisting someone with promotion. If someone reviews the draft I created and sends it to the mainspace, I will watchlist it and revert any promotional edits or WP:FANCRUFT that gets introduced. If not, that is fine as I don’t want to create any issues or assist someone in promoting themselves. So, if consensus is not to move the page, you can blank the content in my sandbox as again, I don’t want to assist anyone with promotion. I will simply move on to editing another artist. Thanks for your time and sorry to step into this mess. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DoubleuWW (talkcontribs) 06:10, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@DoubleuWW: I believe Cryptic is fine with unprotection as long as your draft (or any draft) gets accepted at WP:AFC. When you think the draft is ready, hit the button that says "Submit your draft for review!" and then wait a bit. It'll be easier on all of us if we have confirmation from an uninvolved user who has fully analysed the article and agrees that it's ready for mainspace rather than unprotecting it now and having the possibility that the socks come back.

Oshwah I thought one of the edit warriors had been around for a while but apparently they are all new so I've downgraded the protection to semi for 1 week. DeniseJZ & Jessehr are almost certainly the same person. Kebawl may be a sock as well but I'm not sure of whom.

Indefinite semi-protection: All of the Europe's biggest football clubs, including Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man Utd, PSG, Arsenal, Juventus, etc. have had their Wikipedia pages protected, but Bayern's Wikipedia page is the execption even though the German club is one of the best in Europe. That means that anyone can vandalise the page and write some bad comments about the club at any minute.

Unprotection: Pinging responsible admin @HJ Mitchell: Hi, you've restricted this template to autoconfirmed edits seven years ago. I've so far used edit requests to make changes to the page, but I don't think this edit restriction is necessary. According to toollabs:templatecount, the template is transcluded from (only) 315 pages. The restriction to autoconfirmed users was set indefinitely without prior restrictions. This template also doesn't have any intricate syntax, but it's a wrapper around {{Navbox}}. 2001:2003:54FA:D2:0:0:0:1 (talk) 16:28, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) I don't see a point in removing protection from a template where vandals can easily add fake licenses or blank the template. Even though it's only transcluded in less than 500 pages, it's still prone to vandalism as it's transcluded on several already highly viewed articles. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 21:42, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:BIDIRECTIONAL, this should probably be removed from many articles (about 200 of them). After that's done, semi wouldn't be warranted. ~ Rob13Talk 04:06, 23 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Nominator is referring to RedOnion1634 that I had blocked in error, and then unblocked as soon as the error became known. That editor has made a great many additions to this article in the last two days. However, those edits seem to be someone trying to improve the content, without providing much in the way of sourcing. Good-faith edits, but I'll leave it up to another admin to sort this out since I already did a block/unblock. — Maile (talk) 20:13, 25 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Module:Syrian Civil War overview map

Extended confirmed protection: High level of conflicting changes and IP-vandalism. This module was divided into two parts Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map and Module:Syrian Civil War overview map And now Module:Syrian Civil War overview map not protected.Mehmedsons (talk) 10:36, 26 July 2017 (UTC) You can just put Extended protection at this module bcause its part of the Module:Syrian Civil War detailed and which have a lot problems at past with high level of conflicting changes from the users without the extended confirmed access level and IP-vandalism. And one of this IP-users already made the first of conflicting change without any source link. So please instal the same protection when module can be edit only by editors with the extended confirmed user access level also known as 30/500 protection. Is it extremely necessary! Mehmedsons (talk) 06:37, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why my request to protection still without a result? So I just ask put Extended confirmed protection: for Module:Syrian Civil War overview map exactly as it is was done for Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map. Some of the IP-users and users without the extended confirmed access level make of several conflicting changes.linklink Mehmedsons (talk) 10:22, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Declined Conflicting changes are *not* a reason for protection at all. I am not seeing IP vandalism either. Protection is a last resort, not the first thing to throw at any issue. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:28, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Jo-Jo Eumerus You did not understand the main thing in my request! A long time was the one module Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map which have a Extended confirmed protection: because of the high level of conflicting changes and IP-vandalism. But we divided this module into two parts. And Module:Syrian Civil War overview map is it of its second part. And in my the request, I just asked your to also put protection for the second part of one module. Since if to make harm to Module:Syrian Civil War overview map this also affects on working Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map. So maybe now you can understand of the essence of my request? Mehmedsons (talk) 11:50, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Pages are not protected preemptively. There's no requirement to protect everything related to the Syrian Civil War from what I can see (the article itself only features semi) (though I could be wrong, I don't read much into these matters). We need to see evidence of proper disruption or vandalism before protecting any pages. It's only got 12 transclusions at the current time. I'm not Jo-Jo Eumerus, but I hope this answers your question adequately. Cheers, Anarchyte (work | talk) 11:54, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Anarchyte If any IP-users make conflicting changes or cause any harm at the Module:Syrian Civil War overview map It will also hurt Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map which have a Extended confirmed protection: I do not want to wait for problems, but propose to prevent them. After all, the lack of protection on Module:Syrian Civil War overview map it makes useless to protection at the Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map. At 27 March User:Ad Orientem put Extended confirmed protection: at the Module:Syrian Civil War detailed map because of the high level of conflicting changes and IP-vandalism. You can see it.link And now when the data of one module was divided into two parts, one part of them that is in an unprotected module is under threat. Mehmedsons (talk) 12:10, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I did see that the other module was protected. Thing is that a) that the other module was protected does not mean that this one also needs to, b) there is no indication of improper editing on this module and as Anarchyte said we do not protect pages pre-emptively and c) that the "detailed" module had problems in the past does not mean that these problems will propagate to the lower-level module. Also, while it's true that bad edits are a problem, "some people can't edit the page" also is as it retards updates and leaves errors around for longer.

This is probably breaching a policy of some kind or other, but in this instance I'm very reluctant to protect. Because this is a brand-new article on a subject with BLP considerations, I don't want to close off the main avenue by which people can correct errors (drive-by IPs generally aren't aware of talkpages). PC rather than SP means that IPs can still make legitimate changes but spam won't stick.

Not done. To protect against the removal of a PROD tag goes against the whole reason PROD exists. If the IP deems it notable then just take it to AFD which will continue even if they remove the tag. Anarchyte (work | talk) 09:51, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

City University of New York Public Safety Department

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – One stubborn editor with an always changing IP address insists on removing sourced content from this page, and directing editors to their own personal interpretation of a State statute which contradicts the facts as it is seemingly not enforced per the IP's reading, given the mentioned sourced content already on the page. This dispute has been the source of almost every edit for over a year, and page has only been quiet when PP is on. Last one was for four months and since it expired the disruption has been daily, requesting indefinite. This isn't a hot-button page and is in general relatively static, so indefinite PP wouldn't be that impactful to GF new editors who can also always request changes on the Talk. The page is watched because of this vandal, so their requests will likely be answered promptly. JesseRafe (talk) 14:07, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Just a suggestion, JesseRafe - Notability seems quite thin. Why not just merge it to the university's article and be done with it? I think I have encountered the guy that is disrupting before on another very marginal New York law enforcement agency and that solution worked there. NYPD is notable, the vast majority of other law enforcement agencies, not so much. His additions seem very "police buff" oriented. Not remembering the specific article I am referencing, sorry.

    • It still needs protection, regardless, we can't block this individual, and he'd target the new page as well.

@Maile66: I am almost the only Wiki user active on Jordan related topics. So it was almost as if Jordan was an article from makeandtoss.wiki.org, now people can challenge what I add.

List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of 2017

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Not sure whether this qualifies exactly, but a dynamic IPv6 has been adding blank rows to the table of entries in this article (as in putting the date of the chart ahead of an announced #1 song - but obviously not providing the song in their edit ... example) ... has been doing that for weeks and it's clearly annoying. There also has been some random vandalism like [83] but that seems to be spread out. Articles for previous years have been semiprotected in the past 20152014 because of vandalism issues that carry over from year to year. Don't know if semiprotection or pending changes is the better call here, but in either case, this being put under protection for more than a week would be preferred, based on the first problem I addressed (the addition of blank rows - note: the Billboard charts are updated weekly).

The accusation of vandalism is a lie. This article has been 11 years without an infobox, and a small clque are edit warring to put one in. They are trying to drive people off the talk page too. It's disgraceful behavior. The scare language of "anon IP who is address-hopping" is a bit of a joke. I give away more information in an IP address than the anon-pseudonyms. The different IP addresses are all me (I am hiding nothing), but my mobile phone company mixes them around regularly 213.205.198.162 (talk) 22:17, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
So far, this editor has been posting disruptive edits and tendentious arguments at the talk page. All save one of these IP addresses contain previous warnings for disruptive behavior at other articles. The editor is on the cusp of a 3RR violation if one notes that there are different IP addresses being used. Montanabw(talk) 22:24, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
None of the blocks were for me, as I have already explained. The IPs are a large mobile phone company. This Montanabw has edit warred and lied. Other editors, notably the Ghnome, have baited, and none of them have yet addressed the question of their proposed addition. Nothing at all, just finger-pointing at an IP and baiting of Coile and Kavya Liz. The behavior of these infobox people is shocking 213.205.198.162 (talk) 22:50, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Antonio Banderas

Long-term Semi-protection: This page has been the subject of IP vandalism that has gone on for months now. Given the edits that are made, I speculate that the IPs are really just one zealous editor who continuously and without reason makes massive changes to the page. A look through the page's history shows what I'm talking about. Almost all of the IP accounts have been warned, but the vandalism continues, unabated. Temporary protection does nothing to dissuade this editor.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 19:59, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates

Semi-protection: A rapid series of continuing reverts. I could not quite tell if it is vandalism or some sort of a BLP dispute, but in any case temporary semi-protection seems to be in order. Nsk92 (talk) 23:14, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked. Disruptions seem to have all come from the same IP. — Maile (talk) 23:27, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

False accusation of rape

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of poorly sourced, POV-laden content by unregistered user. Also see Linda Fairstein and now, apparently Ben Stein. Pretty clear WP:NOTHERE if the protecting admin wants to address that, but not reporting elsewhere as there haven't been the multiple warnings yet. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 20:30, 30 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: The previous protection has expired and the disruption from IPs has returned. —Granger (talk · contribs) 00:13, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that before the latest edit to this page, I left a message at the talk page of the previous protecting admin, Vsmith. That message has now been reverted by three different IPs. Only the last of them left an edit summary (and it's a doozy). Funcrunch (talk) 00:19, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
ETA: Make that four. (And thanks to Acroterion for catching some of these) Funcrunch (talk) 00:25, 31 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
