Indefinite semi-protection: Deliberate edit warring and vandalism: still adding unsourced released date outside Genius. He is still adding false information about the single that is actually released in "2005" and make it "2006". This "Tnypr" user should be blocked because he introduced himself as a retired person; so a retired person must consult another administrator, not to just continue edit otherwise he seems like make a sock puppetry 54.36.113.52 (talk) 04:57, 1 March 2019 (UTC).[reply]

Jim Carrey

This article had been semi-protected since 12 April 2010. In my opinion, it is time to try reducing the protection level. The protecting admin, User:Tnxman307, has been inactive since 3 October 2012, when his last edit to English Wikipedia added the {{RETIRED}}template to the top of his user page.—Finell 23:22, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I personally don't think reducing the protection level or removing protection entirely would be a net positive. The article has a long history of vandalism, and Carrey is still alive and well (and relatively popular). I think unprotection or pending changes would just waste vandal fighters' time. Airplaneman 23:54, 28 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You might be right. However, almost 9 years is an awfully long time for page protection, and Carrey is not the star he was in 2010 or earlier. If semi-protection is still necessary, that should manifest itself quickly, and an admin can quickly restore protection. I am no fan of vandalism, nor am I a Wiki-anarchist. I would block vandals more quickly than the standard Wikipedia policy, and I would not send a level 1 template that mischaracterizes clear vandalism as an "experiment"; some conduct so clearly manifests bad faith that it becomes impossible to assume good faith. However, some amount of vandalism is a necessary consequence of being the encyclopedia that anyone can edit, and is a cost of attracting and retaining productive volunteer editors.—Finell 03:22, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Pending-changes protected I have downgraded this to pending-changes, and watchlisted; we'll see...Lectonar (talk) 08:54, 1 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary Semi-Protection: Persistent trolling and weird editing conflicts keep breaking out, to the point that even the subject of the article came out about it (raising WP:BLP concerns).

Indefinite template-protection: Persistent disruptive editing and Edit warring - Semi-protection ineffective, vandalism is persistent.

Module:String

Indefinite template protection: High-risk template – This template is currently fully-protected and has been so since February 2013. However, it is about to have numerous other functions added to it as a result of the decisions to merge five other templates into it, including String2 where I have been the author and maintainer. This added complexity will almost certainly increase the likelihood of bugs being exposed and of requests for modifications or extra functionality. As the frequency of maintenance increases, the rationale for locking down the module against template editors decreases. I would therefore like to see the protection level reduced to TE-level as it will give editors like myself, who know the code best, the ability to maintain the code and respond to issues, at least during the transition to the single string function module.

Rail transport in Walt Disney Parks and Resorts

Semi-protection: Over the past year or so, several anonymous IP editors have made persistent disruptive changes to the lead section of this featured list, specifically changing the location of Hong Kong Disneyland Resort from China to Hong Kong (see the following edits: Special:Diff/822571801, Special:Diff/866582076, Special:Diff/885990599). Referring to it as being from Hong Kong instead of China is inconsistent with the rest of the lead (Tokyo Disney Resort is stated as being in Japan instead of Tokyo, Disneyland Paris is stated as being in France instead of Paris, etc.). I left an embedded note in the lead here: Special:Diff/866704067 to discourage this, but it has been ignored. For the record, Hong Kong is ultimately subordinate to China in spite of its autonomous status, as evident by its full, official name: "Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China". Semi-protection is desirable, but having it in place for a short duration may not do much due to the disruptive edits happening months apart. Semi-protection for a long period will be a better option in this situation. Jackdude101 talk cont 19:35, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: reply to Samsara:Hi there, we are the official film crew. Tao Liu is not in the field of original music in the film ending roller credits, that's why I removed him. Tao Liu is credited as additional composer. We found someone continues to remove the word of:additional composer from Tao Liu and makes him the main composer and not additional composer anymore at not only wiki but a lot of other websites as well, and the same person also attack the main composer by adding slanders that the main composer's music is plagerism.

After a quick search, I can't find any sources to confirm the involvement of Tao Liu (or Liu Tao, for that matter). So unless we get a convincing second opinion (maybe from someone who can read Hanzi or has access to the liner notes), my instinct would be to remove all mention of Tao Liu; Roc Chen, by contrast, is very consistently mentioned in numerous sources.

If you wish to contest deletion (which is where that Afd looks to be heading), you should do so at the Afd discussion page.

@Fish and karate: I see it now, I indeed intended to fully protect but screwed it up because I did not have enough coffee. However, I had a look at it now again, and I think all disruption is coming from just one editor, Kanjikkuzhi, and full protection might be unnecessary at this point. I warned the user, and I will block them if they continue edit-warring. For the time being, I would advocate keeping a three-day semi protection.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:27, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 18:26, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I think I'd prefer that Module:String be editable by template editors if we are going to merge another five string modules into it. The simple solution would be to replicate the two string functions used on main page ({{Str endswith}} and {{Str number/trim}} in a fully protected module of their own, and call that from main page. This would sever the link between Main page and the usual string functions, thus providing an extra layer of insulation for the Main page, while easing development and maintenance of the growing number of string functions used elsewhere in Wikipedia. --RexxS (talk) 18:30, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    You're too late: there's already consensus to merge Module:Str endswith with Module:String. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 18:33, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't see a conflict with the merge consensus. Any sensible editor can see the value of merging all of the string modules into a single module. However, that combined module needs to be editable by template editors, so I'm looking for solutions to that problem. There's no point in raising the protection level of Module:String, and certainly not while we can explore ways of resolving the cascade-protection issues. --RexxS (talk) 19:30, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Declined – There are ongoing discussions to see if Module:String can be taken out from under the cascade protection. When a conclusion is reached there, it may be time to consider changing this module from template protection to full. See also a discussion on RexxS's talk.

@Fish and karate: Having a template use a Lua module with a higher lower protection level defeats the point of the protection of the template. {{3x|p}}ery (talk) 19:54, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
One solution would be lowering the protection of the templates. Tricky case as in trying to figure out if mere mortals may lower protection on office-related pages where PP policy would normally suggest we should, I found myself wondering whether a protecting vanished user was part of OFFICE. Maybe we should just let office look after office. Samsara 21:22, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Declined – As someone pointed out in the protection log of Template:Pp-office, this banner was not *itself* protected as an Office action, it is only used to *designate pages* that are under Office protection. Normally we consider that template protection is enough to prevent vandalism. If the Office believes this is not sufficient, they can increase this to full protection. As a point of interest, there are *no* current pages under Office protection (see Category:Wikipedia Office-protected pages), though of course the system is in place if they ever want to use it.

Sustainable Australia

Full protection: Once again, serial vandaliser, The Drover's Wife, is just indiscriminately wiping out content, often without giving a reason. Really this user just needs to be kicked into touch. All that is happening now is edit warring.

I would have thought that it is within the remit of Wikipedia to inform the reader somewhat about the policies of a political party, to give the reader some understanding of the party, without debating the merits of those policies, or either advocating for or against those policies, and of course without simply replicating the party's web site.

As I have pointed out in one of my numerous reinstatements, this is simply borrowing sections and layout from other Australian political parties e.g. Science Party or United Australia Party. Is it permitted to document policies or not? However whatever the answer the same should apply to ***all*** parties.

The serial vandaliser seems to be of the opinion that documenting a few policies is "promotion". It is clear that said user and I will never agree on that. So it seems likely that separate apolitical assessment of that is required.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – The "affluent" editor is back: Part of slow, long-term pattern going back 11 years to 2007-10-17 on the Palos Heights article and further back than that on other pages. Setting 1-month then 6-month protection back in 2016 didn't get rid of this. Only 1 non-abusive edit by new/anonymous users in the last year, and only 2 in the last 2 years. Edits from the same IP addresses as the "affluent" addition have also been responsible for adding a copyright violation (50.4.128.79 at 2017-03-02 06:52:25) that will now have to be cleaned out. Seems to have used the username User:Deanpear in 2013 and 2016, but all other edits appear to be from anonymous IPs; not sure if I should be reporting this to WP:LTA or Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations also, since some of the IPs have added, to other articles in the past, "affluent" or other opinions about places being poor or having "low income" or "substantial section 8" housing.

A google search confirmed he was a Professor, the article's existing references confirmed he was a Professor. I am going to assume 84.60.235.168 edits [11] [12] were made in good faith. However, I am sure 2605:8D80:628:D24C:CA71:A4AB:7A51:6DF6's long record of disruption, documented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Renamed user 49274c4c204245204241434b/Archive, proves that their only intent is disruption. Note their second edit summary "Reverting BLP violation. If you are going to edit here competency is required." is patent nonsense.

  • Neutral comment Over a barely-noticed logo update which outside of kerning changes, is completely undesirable from the current one? There hasn't been any vandalism at all; two bad edits in fifteen since the new year (and those two were very minor) is certainly not worthy of protection, and in fact I'm reverting your edit, because the 'logo change' was barely noticeable. Consider this a warning; RFP is for cases of continuous and tenuous vandalism that reversion/warning isn't enough for. Not to protect your edits from reversion.

Sword and Scale

Temporary full protection: Long-term edit warring going on between two editors over a "Controversy" section which involves BLP and COI matters. One editor, who the content is about, keeps removing the section and claiming that it's defamatory. The other editor keeps re-adding it and has left edit summaries like "LOL" in response. This has gone way beyond 3RR and it's surprising that nobody has been blocked yet. IPs are also removing the content (but these are probably same as the editor with BLP concerns). It might be a good idea to WP:FULL protect this until whatever COI issues and BLP issues there are can be sorted at WP:BLPN#Sword and Scale and WP:COIN#Sword and Scale. -- Marchjuly (talk) 02:59, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This was declined above. I'll explain myself more clearly. Note that User:OliverC200 is a Brian Frosh WP:SPA that was unblocked[14] with a request that they follow WP:COI. Can I prove that this is the same person as the IP editors? No, but based on the timing and the continuity of the conversation, it sure looks like it. If one wants to go back to October, User:BBcomm is another WP:SPA whose two contributions both consisted of removing sourced info with an edit summary saying that the info was unsourced.[15][16]Adoring nanny (talk) 03:05, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Derwick Associates and Alejandro Betancourt López

Full protection: or Pending changes: part of electrical crisis in Venezuela, with ongoing BLP issues.

History: Betancourt López is one of the founders of Derwick Associates; both are names that come up in multiple sources with respect to the blackout in Venezuela. There is a history of paid editing, where the articles were being whitewashed. Considering recent developments, I checked on the articles this week and updated dead links. I am not able to convince myself that paid editing has not continued. Further, because of the blackout, the BLP is being hit constantly by IPs with BLP violations. I don't think semi-protection is enough for these articles, considering the history of paid editing. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 14:42, 12 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

SandyGeorgia - Sure, no problem at all. Lets both keep one eye on the article.

Unprotection: Well for one it strikes me as odd that a redirect has indefinite full protection. So when I went back and looked, the subject’s page had been deleted and that had been the request of an editor. Well, that was 6 years ago and times change (at that time it was assumed he would follow in his father’s football footsteps so it was deleted under NFOOTY). By now, 6 years later, the subject has more than enough independent coverage of his own in the most reliable sources such as The Independent, GQ, BBC, etc.; it is no longer inherited notability. Therefore I just want to get the page done with. The page itself is protected as David Beckham#Personal_life so I’m not sure how to link it properly.

Watership Down

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Special:Contributions/2600:1702:1c0:5df0::/64 is edit warring, and has violated WP:3RR, in removing the well sourced section "Criticism of gender roles" which impartially records criticism of some of the book's themes which have been made. These criticisms are clearly notable, being published by the New York Times and even the book publisher itself in an afterword accompanying the book. There is extensive discussion amongst the editors who originally added this content on the talk page. The IP range is not discussing on the talk page as they were advised to do the first time they were reverted but instead continues to simply remove the section (which is being reinstated by multiple editors) with edit summaries such as "My source is this very page" and "Being able to site [sic] a source, does not make that source factual or correct". They have been warned for edit warring but as they are hopping betwwen different IPs it may be easier to protect the page (or, perhaps, rangeblock) to get them to start discussing.

Unprotection from creation protection: A while ago I contacted the protecting admin for permission to create the draft since the page had been creation protected because a sockpuppet kept abusively creating the article. I’m not a sock, obviously, but since I created the draft and have done all I can, I don’t want creation protection to block it from moving to the mainspace upon approval. In December, the protecting admin already left a comment requesting removal of page protection when the article is approved. Trillfendi (talk) 17:05, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Done @Ivanvector and Trillfendi: pinging involved users. Reduced from full protection to extended confirmed protection.

File talk:UC Browser Logo.png

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Is there anything we can do about this ? (I've never had to deal with a file talk). - FlightTime (open channel) 17:53, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please ping me with the resolution, thanx. - FlightTime (open channel) 17:55, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Declined @FlightTime: The concern here is legitimate. However, we only protect talk pages in extreme situations, because protecting a page and its talk runs contrary to the fundamental principle that anyone can edit Wikipedia. With approximately two disruptive edits a month, this is not at that level. I could apply PC protection, but given that the content of the edits isn't something that needs to be hidden, this will only shift the load of dealing with these onto reviewers. In sum, I don't think there's much to be done here. If another admin is willing to semi-protect this indefinitely, I won't object, but I'm not willing to do so. Vanamonde (Talk) 18:33, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Vanamonde93: I was hoping it wouldn't too much of a problem as file talks are very rarely used, but your rational is logical. Thanks for your time. - FlightTime (open channel) 18:36, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Revert to Pending Change Protection There was a flaw in the article that causes many to try to fix it (assuming that they are students in the school), but they are blocked by the semi-protection lock. The article was semi-protected because of long-term vandalism. Since then, there were no edits for four years, but there were some requests in the talk page to fix inaccuracies. I think the semi-protection should be removed and instead replace it with pending change protection. INeedSupport :3 15:11, 19 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed: Arbitration enforcement – non-ECP (SPA to this article) / IP turned this BLP article into an article consisting of 50% ARBPIA conflict material (along the way, possible BLP issues as the cited sources were not on this BLP) - this version. The article (in the version edited to by the IP / non-ECP user) falls under WP:ARBPIA3#General Prohibition. I'm not sure this should be indef-ECPed (as I'm not sure the subject is inherently ARBPIA related) - but the current content dispute is between an ARBPIA article and a non-ARBPIA article - and while this content dispute is unresolved the article should be ECPed per ARBPIA3. Icewhiz (talk) 20:52, 17 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. The substantive content of the article is not pertinent to ARBPIA, and the fact an author writes an article for USA Today about US aid to Israel does not immediately render them subject to ARBPIA, even if an editor tries to coatrack the article to make it so. Fish+Karate 09:55, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Will re-raise if this continues (I agree the article shouldn't be ARBPIA (the oped either should be absent, or get a very minor mention) - the coat racking by an IP turned it into ARBPIA (over 50% by my eyeball)). Icewhiz (talk) 13:17, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
If that continues then there's a valid argument for semi-protection if discussion with the IP editor does not resolve the issue. Fish+Karate 13:38, 18 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. Note O'Dea that technically both you and the IP are in breach of 3RR, as this is a content dispute, not vandalism - the IP is trying to improve the page (albeit in a way that goes against the MOS), you could try being a little bit nicer in your discussions, and also use edit summaries to explain why, rather than just spamming rollback. Fish+Karate 15:09, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I did allow my annoyance to get the better of me at first but then I used edit summaries and the editor's talk page to explain that there was in fact a policy at issue, rather than merely a question of personal taste. But the IP ignored that. I knew I had exceeded 3RR so I withdrew from that and tackled the issue differently. — O'Dea (talk) 16:10, 21 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism over the last few months. We have IPs trying to add spam links multiple times[38] and we have IP accounts try to add low quality sources.[39] Semi-protection for 6 month at least would be useful.

Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302

Temporary semi-protection (perhaps for a period of about a month or so until the dust settles on this article): After this page became unprotected, it still averages about one or two IP vandalism/disruptive edits per day. This is a commercial aviation disaster that killed all 157 people aboard, and the cause still hasn’t been determined, so I think it would be better for semi-protection to be applied for a longer period than the minimum 3 days.

I've chipped in on the talk page discussion so wouldn't want to change / not change the protection. While I think the IPs are edit-warring, so are establishing editors, and semi-protection potentially just means the established editors get their own way on what is clearly a content dispute. I would shorten the full protection as a week is excessive, but not drop to semi-protection, but I can't make that call after participating in the discussion. Fish+Karate 14:06, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I am fine with reducing the protection length, but they were edit-warring for already quite some time, this is why I have chosen a week.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:42, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
While I don't excuse the edit warring from anyone, nor do I necessarily think that the full protection needs to be removed until the talk page discussion resolves, I am pretty sure that the two IPs that I identified above are a blocked user sockpuppeting from open proxies or a TOR node. I'm not positive who the master is, but their behavior stands out as highly suspicious. I have reported the IPs to WP:OP, but changing IPs via proxies is trivial, so it won't actually do much good.- MrX 🖋 15:52, 22 March 2019 (UTC)  [reply]
Since the above conversation, there was some discussion on the talk page that came to a consensus version of the text to include; at least one of the edit-warring editors was involved/signed-off, so yay, the process worked! With that in mind, I will lower the protection to semi for a bit, just to ensure it sticks. At this point, if any established accounts continue edit warring, a block seems more reasonable. ~ Amory (utc) 10:15, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@TheGeneralUser: Why ? - FlightTime (open channel) 17:01, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
As I've mentioned above, there isn't any current issue for the which the protection is currently in place and blocks and protections are only applied to prevent disruption which in this case has already outlived its purpose. I'm not asking for the article to be moved, only for the move protection to be removed. There are millions of articles on Wikipedia that don't need to be moved, but we don't fully move protect them all indefinitely because things can always change in the future. TheGeneralUser (talk) 21:21, 23 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@TheGeneralUser: Note the policy phrase: "Highly visible pages that have no reason to be moved" under move protection. Samsara 08:15, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@Ymblanter: There was move warring by a then autoconfirmed, now blocked user in April and May 2011. However, the user, KS700, wasn't actually blocked until 2012, then repeatedly until indef - apparently move protection was the preferred remedy. I believe ECP may not have been available to use at that time, so full protection would have had to be applied for it to be effective (or a block, as mentioned above). Nev1 was the admin making the move protection setting, and they've not edited in the last 4 months. In my opinion, lowering the move protection to ECP would be entirely uncontroversial, and lowering it completely might be considered given the time that's passed.

List of world number one snooker players

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Hi, I am a member of WP:SNOOKER and I am having real problems with an editor at this article who keeps corrupting one of the tables so it directly contradicts sourced information (the sources are documented directly in the table above). Even though the changes are being undertaken by different IP numbers and a newly registered account I am pretty sure this is just a single person. I started a discussion at Talk:List_of_world_number_one_snooker_players#Total_time_spent_at_#1 but the editor has just completely ignored this (explaining why their edits are wrong and contradict the sources) and reverted. Semi-protection for a week would force them to hack this out on the talk page rather than de-stabilising the article with incorrect and an unverifiable information.

Phil Bryant

Semi-protection: BLP policy violations. A steady stream of edits (and consequent edit wars) dating back to early 2017 falsely alleging that Bryant is the nephew of Roy Bryant, one of Emmett Till's killers. This claim originated from a poorly-researched article published in January 2017 which claimed that Gov. Bryant's mother was the sister of Roy Bryant. Not that the article even deserves the attention of disproval due to its shoddy information to begin with, I took it upon myself regardless to look into the family histories of the respective men & can say confidently that there is no immediate nor even distant familial link between them. I could go into the genealogical particulars but that seems inappropriate in this space. Anyway, such false claims, especially when made vindictively and emotively as they have been (one user making the edits was named EmmettsVoice; another accused their reverter of 'whitewashing history'), are highly damaging and surely, given their persistence, warrant article protection.

Republic of China (1912–1949)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – dynamic ip keep on changing the map to non-SVG. A full protection may force them to sit down in talk page to discuss it. As a bureaucratic kick around , SPI clerk did not think this ongoing (for a few month of changing map to non-SVG ) is their problem (the actual wording is "Having a dynamic IP is not sock puppetry") So, please don't kick the disruptive edit problem to another venue. e.g. It seem the sockmaster or as WP:tag team hold other ip such as 111.192.193.239 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) (by compare of change of map). Matthew hk (talk) 04:19, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It is redundant to protect the article Republic of China (1912–1949) because it is only about the detail that which map should be used for the article Republic of China (1912–1949). I changed the infobox map of the article Republic of China (1912–1949) for some reasonable reasons: the map "File:China 1933.jpg" shows the territories of the Republic of China between 1 January 1912, when it was established, and 25 October 1945, when it regained Taiwan from Japan, for nearly 33 years and 10 months. However, the map "File:Republic of China (orthographic projection, historical).svg" shows the the territories of the Republic of China between 25 October 1945, when it regained Taiwan from Japan, and 5 January 1946, when it officially recognized the independence of Outer Mongolia, for nearly only 2 months. By comparison, it is obvious that the map "File:China 1933.jpg" is more representative, reasonable and proper for the infobox map of the article Republic of China (1912–1949). In conclusion, 1. it is redundant to protect the article Republic of China (1912–1949) because it is only about the detail that which map should be used for the article Republic of China (1912–1949). 2. the map "File:China 1933.jpg" is most representative, reasonable and proper for the infobox map of the article Republic of China (1912–1949), so please use the map "File:China 1933.jpg" for the only infobox map of the article Republic of China (1912–1949) and never change it. 123.150.182.179 05:28, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
Since you never use Talk:Republic of China (1912–1949) and you have been warned, temp blocked. It is required to do so to stop this edit war. Also, this venue RFPP is bad to document the discussion about the editing of the article, so please use the right venue Talk:Republic of China (1912–1949), or related article talk page that you guys edit warring at: Talk:Nationalist government, Talk:Beiyang government.

However, the map "File:Republic of China (orthographic projection, historical).svg" shows the the territories of the Republic of China between 25 October 1945, when it regained Taiwan from Japan, and 5 January 1946, when it officially recognized the independence of Outer Mongolia, for nearly only 2 months (of course the only 2 months is during the rule of Nationalist government). By comparison, it is obvious that the map "File:China 1933.jpg" is more representative, reasonable and proper for the infobox map of the article Nationalist government.

Wikipedia is not in your way of bold edit everywhere and user warn you to discuss it first. For Nationalist government, it even worse, at least a dozen ip keep changing the map without discussion, with a registered user 复旦大学张超 even blocked for socking. The article was high likely to have an edit war again if you guys did not sit down in the talk page to document the consensus. Before any new consensus, it should use the SVG map whcih appeared in the stable version of the article back to 2013. Matthew hk (talk) 15:55, 24 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
The IP user you said participate in the discussion now. There is no one change the infobox map these days. Thus, it is redundant to protect the article Nationalist government. 211.103.82.167 16:22, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

Temporary protection: High level of speculative or against source edits. Or deciding some how Fox units shut down before the Disney merger are some how Disney units. Spshu (talk) 19:41, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You have no source that they shut down. Just because 21CF shut down, doesn’t mean Fox EG shut down. By that logic, 20th Century Fox would have been “shut down”. So it’s best to countinue to list these as Disney units UNLESS you give a source saying otherwise. HurricaneGeek2002 (talk) 20:21, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Fox Entertainment Group has been split into two, TV and film. The highest unit under Walt Disney Studios was announced to be 20th Century Fox not Fox Entertainment Group, @HurricaneGeek2002:, with Walden as Vice Chair of 20th Century Fox moving over to Disney Studios. It doesn't necessarily Fox EG shut down, but you are assuming what and where this unit is. It could be used as a transfer vehicle for the TV units and moved under W.Disney TV or just a unit wind down. 21CF did not shut down it merged with WDC Merger Enterprise II, Inc. and became a holding company.

The users will return and return as have been doing since 2016 if not protected indefinitely. This request has apparently been rejected for "not enough recent activity" despite the fact these users have made 23 editions in the last 10 days. Super Ψ Dro 20:31, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Pending-changes protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Semi-protection may have been an overkill given the sporadic nature of the disruption but, given that this has been a long-term problem I have added pending changes protection. If auto-confimed accounts continue the disruption by adding unsourced or undue content, they can be warned and subsequently blocked. Abecedare (talk) 20:50, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Just one IP recently, no need for protection ~ Amory (utc) 11:25, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Amorymeltzer, I do not know what is understood by recently, but in the last 10 days, 3 users (2 IPs and an account obviously of the same person) have made a total of 23 editions adding the same and reverting their own changes over and over again so that other users can not revert them. This person is not going to stop until we leave his changes in the article, it has been this way since 2016 and it's about time to end this. Super Ψ Dro 13:03, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
