Test2

Reason: Repeatedly deleted and recreated as a test page. Mast303 (talk) 04:32, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But isn't that the point? Daniel Case (talk) 18:27, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No? It's a mainspace article. Test pages don't belong in mainspace. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:57, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Declined They shouldn't be in mainspace, but this is all in all only a small problem...easy to tag it as a test page, easy to delete as a test page. Let's call it a bit of an outlet/service to new users. If any other admin sees the dire need to protect...go right ahead. Lectonar (talk) 12:16, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dembiya

Reason: disruptive editing by sock Magherbin (talk) 16:12, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 01:54, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Begemder

Reason: socking and disruptive edits goes back to June 15th of last year Magherbin (talk) 16:21, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked. Bbb23 (talk) 01:58, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sindhis

Reason: The article on Sindhis should have its protection increased due to the high levels of IP vandalism in the past and to avoid unnecessary edits by non-registered users. This is especially important given that this particular article has been subject to significant disruption from anonymous editors, which could lead to inaccurate or potentially damaging information being added. Increasing protection would ensure that only registered users with a valid purpose are able to make changes, thus ensuring accuracy and consistency for global readers. TheBushSush (talk) 17:49, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 02:00, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of football stadiums in Greece

Reason: Page has been constantly been vandalised with Olympiacos' fans putting Karaiskakis Stadium at second place. This edit warring has been going back and forth the past few months, with it having been reverted back and forth 10 times. This is the second request I submit for this page, the last one being rejected for insufficient warring, but now edit warring with IPs has gone out of control. Tranquill Komnin (talk) 18:07, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pending-changes protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Lectonar (talk) 10:14, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mission Majnu

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Severe IP vandalism and disruption which has seen an uptick in the last month. A mid-term semi is needed. Gotitbro (talk) 22:53, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

La casa de los famosos (season 3)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Disruptive editing from IP users resumed after recent protection expired. Telenovelafan215 (talk) 02:24, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:22, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Timeline of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict in 2023

Extended confirmed protected--Ymblanter (talk) 13:25, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Repeated addition of WP:INDISCRIMINATE cruft by an now blocked Sakuranbo97, which is escalated into WP:3RR. 2600:1700:9BF3:220:9585:F64B:E1C3:B891 (talk) 03:51, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi'd until February 2 by Jauerback. ECP isn't needed. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:56, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Already protected. Lectonar (talk) 12:16, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bobby Hull

Reason: Lots of IP edits + reverts on a man who recently died 45BearsFan (talk) 04:08, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lyldoll

Reason: Recent tampering. Potential removal of information done out of spite. 2607:FEA8:2340:7270:D8A3:C9D5:5E90:4AF0 (talk) 05:58, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Hmmm...i don't know about your definition for "recent"...but the last edit was on december 9th, last year. Lectonar (talk) 10:16, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Long, Long Time (The Last of Us)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent Disruptive Editing. CastJared (talk) 10:11, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

World Health Organization

Temporary extended protection: Persistent Vandalism. This page has ongoing vandalism from IP addresses and has had for as long as I've watched it. I assume this will never end. CT55555(talk) 17:16, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Cornick

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Philipnelson99 (talk) 21:29, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of Super Bowl halftime shows

Reason: One particular anonymous user, using a dynamic IPv6 address that changes with each edit, persistently making an unsourced and dubious claim and edit warring when reverted. When warned about behavior, user continued to edit-war and demanded I "stop destroying the page." As it is not a fixed IP and part of the page is about a pending major event, page is a likely target for vandals, so semi-protection would be warranted J. Myrle Fuller (talk) 23:01, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Agha Petros

Reason: high level AssyrianProud (talk) 00:11, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Please don't use this board until you understand our protection policy. OhNoitsJamie Talk 00:18, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Consumption of Tide Pods

Reason: Persistent target of disruption by WP:LTA. Other articles may follow. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:4C4B (talk) 03:40, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Compact fluorescent lamp

Reason: Same long term disruption as at Consumption of Tide Pods. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:4C4B (talk) 03:58, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Super Bowl LVIII

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – We're coming up on the annual Superbowl, and like clockwork, we're getting IPs making edits which have to be reverted. If we can protect against IPs for another 10-11 days, that will help. Tarl N. (discuss) 05:18, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. --Kinu t/c 05:24, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Lectonar (talk) 10:36, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A-League Men

Reason: Constant changing of "soccer" to "football" by IPs, which is not in line with WP:NCFA. Page was semi-protected for a week - the day the protection expired, and IP once again made the change. Requesting longer or even permanent semi-protection. -- SuperJew (talk) 09:40, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:18, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:16, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sokollu Mehmed Pasha

Reason: Misinformation, false and/or propaganda content referring Sokollus Serbian heritage and ethnicity should be removed. The complete text to be reviewed and referenced. 212.71.208.97 (talk) 10:51, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Automated comment: @Csa19: This request cannot be parsed. Please ensure it follows formatting consistent with the current or previous methods of submission.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 19:30, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Rakaposhi

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Very persistent nationalist editing. Uness232 (talk) 14:40, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined One instance in about 4 months isn't what I would call persistent. Lectonar (talk) 15:48, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Massanutten Military Academy

Reason: The vandalism was regarding an alumni that other alumni deemed unacceptable. There have been thorough and monthly discussions and learning that the Wikipedia listing is accurate. There will be no further vandalism of trying to remove the alumni, as they did attend the Academy. TrueCadence (talk) 15:45, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Not done Edit requests are working fine; I'm not convinced by your assurances, and anticipate that disruption around Khalifa's entry would immediately resume. OhNoitsJamie Talk 16:23, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of three weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 21:22, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Doudrop

Temporary move protection: To prevent further undiscussed moves[1][2] and avoiding WP:RECENT and WP:TOOSOON. For a professional wrestler, it usually takes 3-6 months to establish the new ring name. So I suggest 3-month protection. Users can start a requested move on the talk page at anytime and if community reach a consensus, we can move the article to the new name. Mann Mann (talk) 15:09, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Move protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 21:29, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Series/Gamergate

Unprotection: Gamaliel semi'd this template in 2015... something tells me this is not an ongoing issue. jp×g 01:51, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Do we know if that was protected under WP:ARBGG (which would still make it an arbitration enforcement action even with GG being supplanted by WP:GENSEX)? —Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.) 05:55, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No reason was provided in the protection log. — xaosflux Talk 12:48, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like the page protection was done before the initial case closed. I would say WP:ARBGG applies as it's the de facto. – The Grid (talk) 18:50, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Nope - the prot (2015/02/02) was a few days after the case formally closed (2015/01/29). —Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.) 20:25, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Gamaliel: ping, FYI. We're wondering if there's any connection between this protection you applied and WP:ARBGG. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:05, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Unprotected. @JPxG: the protecting administrator informed me he has no objection to unprotecting. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:20, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

02 February 2023

Hellraiser (2022 film)

Reason: IP editor who was previously engaged in an edit war in December has seemingly returned (with a different IP), now moving to the plot section and is changing Pinhead's credited name of "the Priest" to just Pinhead without providing a reliable source. Previously, the IP editor had been consistently changing a sentence in the opening paragraph and removing the reliable source I provided, and ignored the words "Do not remove" when editing. Seems like either semi-protection or extended confirmed protection could work to prevent the IP from making further disruptive edits on the article. Edwordo13 (talk) 15:47, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 21:31, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yevgeny Prigozhin

Reason: Unconstructive IP edits to a BLP on Russian Ukrainian war topic which non auto confirmed accounts can’t edit Volunteer Marek 19:31, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It’s still going on. Volunteer Marek 18:40, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Can we PLEASE get this done? It's been going on for half a week now and it's just getting worse. Volunteer Marek 22:24, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Already protected by administrator Ponyo. For three days. Sdrqaz (talk) 22:52, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Vandalism. 73.67.145.30 (talk) 20:05, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Sdrqaz (talk) 22:52, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Saul Goodman

Reason: Frequently vandalized due to the suject being popular in memes. Semi-protection will probably suffice. 142.254.1.77 (talk) 20:28, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Pending-changes protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Sdrqaz (talk) 22:52, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

MasterChef India (Hindi season 7)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Continued re-addition of unsourced material. Onel5969 TT me 14:40, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Seems to have stopped after yesterday's edit war. Daniel Case (talk) 21:23, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It stopped, because I asked for the page to be protected, then the uncited information was re-added. Onel5969 TT me 04:08, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

MBC Action

Reason: Persistent Tunisia-based LTA/block evasion. Same exact issue at other already-protected articles including MBC 3, MBC 2 (Middle Eastern and North African TV channel), MBC 4, List of programmes broadcast by MBC 4, etc. Magitroopa (talk) 20:52, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 23:44, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Creation protected indefinitely. BusterD (talk) 00:57, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Template:U.S. family-oriented television channels

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 17:25, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

65th Annual Grammy Awards

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP vandalism. Doc StrangeMailboxLogbook 20:43, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – the request was valid at the time, but there's been nothing in the past 24 hours. Sdrqaz (talk) 22:52, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

N. Wyn Evans

Reason: Extended confirmed protection - New user who is apt to hit autoconfirmed status fairly soon is edit-warring to replace the redirect with a undersourced biography on an academic with dubious notability. —Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.) 00:02, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Extended confirmed protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Continued discussion is sometimes helpful. BusterD (talk) 01:11, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr

Reason: Persistent IP vandalism/puffery which appears to originate from the law firm the article is about. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 16:49, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. There is a little puffery - a couple on January 31, one on January 25 - but before that it goes back to December. If puffery continues or increases, ask again. MelanieN (talk) 02:13, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dhama

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This article has faced persistent vandalism of the same unsourced information from various IP addresses. Since this seems to be the same user adding unsourced information despite direct explanations in the talk page as to why this information was removed, some form of protection might prevent further vandalism. If there is another form of protection I should be requesting, please let me know. Owlettes (talk) 04:41, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Module:GetShortDescription

Reason: Requesting permanent template-protection as this is required by Module:AnnotatedLink (also needs protection) which is invoked by the currently protected high-risk {{annotated link}}.

Template protected – Favonian (talk) 11:37, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Manganese, Minnesota

Reason: User:Magnolia677 continues to revert article content specifically requested by reviewers during GA and FA review process of this article. Consequently, I am no longer certain this article meets FA criteria due to this user's continued edit warring and reversions. I will be requesting FA re-assessment of this article once the page is protected with the original content required for promotion and the request that this user be blocked. This user has a history of removing relevant, neutrally-phrased, reliably-sourced material from pages as stated by many other users on his talk page. DrGregMN (talk) 01:22, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Talk:Manganese, Minnesota#Undue geologic details would be a good place to start. The discussion was initiated on January 23, but so far only Magnolia677 has weighed in. Favonian (talk) 09:45, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Persistent IP edit warring and vandalism. This has been happening across Peru-related articles. WMrapids (talk) 23:24, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Move protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I move protected to prevent any additional move warring. I did not protect the article itself because this is basically a content dispute between those who want to say "massacre" and those who want to say "incident". It's not serious enough (yet) to require full protection. But the disputing parties need to discuss this question on the talk page, which is currently not happening.  MelanieN (talk) 17:22, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Invented tradition

Reason: An unregistered user coming from multiple IP addresses in the 240B:C020:4XXX block has been editing disruptively:

  • In edit summaries, they have accused editors of "prejudice and racism".
  • In edit summaries, they have called other editors' edits "ridiculous" and "lies".
  • They have deleted sources.
  • They have not engaged on Talk despite repeated requests to.
  • They have repeatedly reverted (edit warring).

Since their IP address is not stable (they have used 7 so far), it seems that the only way to stop the disruption and encourage the editor to discuss on Talk is semi-protection. Macrakis (talk) 23:56, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: IP users behind who I suspect the subject of the article have for years consistently edited the article, often adding unsourced praise. I added a long descriptions of my findings to the talk page back in 2021, where I came to the conclusion that the article was very likely mostly written by the subject himself, in blatant violation of WP:CONFLICT. Since then this pattern has persisted, for example with the same IP address adding praise back in without addressing any of the concerns regarding WP:CONFLICT and WP:V. At this point I think only deleting the article or semi-protecting it will help. QuaintlyLittoral (talk) 13:51, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

English language

In the infobox image caption, "States where English is a working languages of the government" is incorrect - should be singular ("language").

To be even more correct, the sentence should either read "States where English is a working language of the government, a language of education, or spoken by more than 20% of the population" or perhaps "States where English is a working language of the government, language of education, or is spoken by more than 20% of the population". I leave the level of pedantry up to you.

Race and intelligence

In the section "Genetics of race and intelligence", add this at the end of the second paragraph: By contrast, T. Warne (2021) argues that within the United States, a >0% genetic origin of intra-group differences in intelligence is probable, and discusses five lines of research to support this contention. END OF PROPOSED EDIT.

Here is the source: https://doi.org/10.5406/amerjpsyc.134.4.0479 . The American Journal of Psychology is a reputable source. This specific paper discusses some of the literature concerning the situation in the US. The author of the paper, Russel T. Warne, is a psychologist and researcher. He also serves on the editorial board for the journal Intelligence. 185.183.147.233 (talk) 00:13, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that the requested edit would violate WP:FRIND, given that Warne's stated position is definitely FRINGE, as determined by strong consensus at the most recent Race and intelligence RfC. This is assuming that the IP meant to write "inter-group differences" rather than "intra-group differences" –– Warne's article argues the former, and only the former would be relevant in any case.

Once again, entirely unnecessary (see Acadia: A New Orleans Bistro above). I've been clear I am not going to edit war. Editor continues to follow me, adding tags unnecessarily and removing sourced details, even when other editors have disagreed with The Banner's assessments. I would like for this editor to please leave me alone, which I've requested multiple times now. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:51, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ARBIP. Daniel Case (talk) 21:20, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
But these just introduce contentious topic, they do not authorise blanket ecp protection such as for example PIA. I do not see any ongoing disruption in the article which would require any protection. Ymblanter (talk) 14:04, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's my understanding (I can't find the page that says this, but everyone involved in this topic area seems to believe it) that the CT designation authorizes admins to impose ECP with less discussion than usual. I have certainly done this in the past without complaint.
This is probably moot, though, as you are correct that disruption on this page is at the moment minimal. Daniel Case (talk) 20:25, 2 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This article has been the subject of a long-term vandalism/POV-pushing campaign that has gone on for years. The page was protected back in June for a six-month period, but now that it's over, further efforts have been made to continue adding the exact same content. ser!

Now (The Carpenters song)

Reason: Continued attempts to overwrite the merge consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Now (The Carpenters song), possible LTA by Ajsillo302010.

Highways in Romania

Reason: Intensified disruptive editing by multiple IPs in the past month, around the general map of highways in the lead section, despite local consensus.

Manganese, Minnesota

Reason: Requesting full page protection. Manganese, Minnesota is a featured article. I am the primary author and promoter of this page. Both content and photos requested by GA and FA reviewers have been gutted and reverted on several occasions resulting in the start of an edit war between myself and User:Magnolia677. I am requesting this user be blocked from further edits of this article until it can be reassessed: I am not certain the removal of content by this user meets FA criteria anymore. This cannot be done without this user continually gutting reverted edits. I have already tried to make a peace offering by asking him to participate in my recent request for peer review of the article Withrow, Minnesota: instead of participating in the process, this user fired an opening edit salvo by gutting this article as well. I am requesting that Withrow, Minnesota also receive full page protection and User:Magnolia677 be blocked from further edits of this page at least until the article Manganese, Minnesota can be reassessed for FA criteria.

Unprotection: (Remove 'Pending Changes' reduce to 'Semi Protection') This page has been 'pending changes' protected since 2018 for 'Persistent Sockpuppetry.' I don't think this is a valid reason to have 'Pending changes' applied (it's not 'vandalism') and most pending changes reviewers won't be 'checkusers' anyway.

Protecting admin does not appear to be active. JeffUK 10:00, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@JeffUK: Semi-protection is an escalation from CRASHlock, not a softening. And provided the article isn't otherwise contraindicated for it sockpuppetry is indeed a valid reason to use CRASHlock, as much as I loathe uttering that sentence. That most reviewers won't be CheckUsers is irrelevant; one doesn't necessarily need that tool to suss out if someone is a sock. —Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.) 16:38, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not done. I'm not sure whether the sockpuppetry is still an issue, but regardless there seems to be a good case here for pending changes protection: there's been plenty of recent disruption, but it's not so concentrated that PCP would be ineffective. There have also been a number of constructive IP edits (e.g. [9][10][11][12]) that semi-protection would have prevented. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 01:31, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Qamar Javed Bajwa

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Content dispute over the controversy section of the article. I think both parties should have a discussion on the talk page over which particular part of the section do they want to keep or remove but as of now, One party wants to remove the entire controversy section while the other one wants to restore all of it. The constant edit warring is preventing any healthy discussion. The last stable version of the article had the controversy section in it. Razer(talk) 08:35, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

As the admin who put this article under ECP a few days ago, I understand why this would be sought. The problem is that once the full-protection expires, it would be necessary to manually restore the ECP. So if we do this, someone needs to commit to getting it back either by notifying me or making a fresh request here. Daniel Case (talk) 22:43, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Things have slightly improved since my request for protection and there have been a couple of editors who are trying to improve the article. I think ECP is sufficient under the current circumstances. Interestingly the same story is being repeated on the article of another pakistani general - Asim Saleem Bajwa. Where a group of editors have been trying to remove the entire controversy section. Razer(talk) 08:42, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of extinct bird species since 1500

Unprotect. This page, under the title List of recently extinct bird species, was put under pending changes protection by Ronhjones in September 2018 because of waves of edits from socks. Over the past several weeks, an anonymous editor using a dynamic IP has made hundreds of miniscule edits, all of which have been accepted practically immediately by pending changes reviewers because this person's tweaks have all been clear improvements.

Canon (fiction)

Reason: Looking at the history of the page, there's been an edit war going on for 1.5 YEARS now. It started on 5 September 2021‎ with user Smitterdin adding the claim that canon is decided by the fan base, and he has been hounding that page ever since, undoing everyone's work who corrected this. Originally he did so without any source, and later on he just copied a random source from further down the page. Ironically the source doesn't support his claim, it contradicts it, defining canon as "The source material". It does note that not all people accept the concept, but that's a far cry from it supporting the claim that canon is decided by the fan base. Side notes about the opinion of some people have no place on wikipedia, lest we have to add to the Earth's page that some believe it to be flat! 1.5 years of edit wars is too long and he clearly has no intention of stopping. Therefore I request that his unsupported claims be removed and the page temporarily locked, as a sign for him to stop his vandalism 2A02:1810:4F0B:500:7791:C6EF:E1E4:5282 (talk) 04:59, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm the user mentioned in this request so I decided to address it.
1) The claim that there is an ongoing edit war that lasted 1.5 years is blown out of proportion. This page was edited 68 times in the last 1.5 years and only a portion of those is edit warring.
2) The claim that I fought against multiple users is false. The edit war 1.5 years ago was conducted by me and an anonymous user who later made an account to post on the talk page. Multiple users agreed with me and there were at least two other accounts (not including bots) who reverted edits on that page.
3) The claim that I committed vandalism is false. I corrected this article in good faith and then I attempted to discuss my corrections on the talk page. The edit war 1.5 years ago happened because the anonymous user involved ignored my requests to take it to the talk page and instead proceeded to re-add the same information over and over again and use edit summaries for talking. I acted the way I did believing I was fighting vandalism which is permitted according to Wikipedia:Edit warring.
4) The argument at hand is incomparable to the flat earth argument and only serves to portray the opposing side as incompetent. Smitterdin (talk) 05:41, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
1) the fact that it's not always been the same intensity is irrelevant. I can see in the history page that it's been going on for 1.5 years
2) Multiple users agreeing with you doesn't matter if you can't provide a source to back up your claims. if multiple people agree that "the earth is flat" should be added on the Earth's page, it doesn't matter either because there are no sources to back up that claim. Wikipedia is about facts and not about "x number of people have opinion Y"
3) If you work in good faith, then why did you at first not even use a source and later just copied a source which outright contradicts your claim? The source clearly defines canon as "The source material." notice the full stop there! The added note that some people refuse to work with that is not part of the definition of canon, it's a side note
4) The comparison with flat earth is an analogy to highlight the absurdity of what you're doing, i.e. using the side note "some people have different opinions" as proof that your claim is right, even though the source directly contradicts you. Just like with the shape of the earth, it doesn't matter if some people have a divergent opinion, this is true for any topic ever
(also, I don't think this page is the correct place for a discussion) 2A02:1810:4F0B:500:7791:C6EF:E1E4:5282 (talk) 05:59, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Template protected indefinitely. OhNoitsJamie Talk 04:13, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    @Moxy and Ohnoitsjamie: I don't believe that protection is necessary for a template documentation page, and even if it were necessary, the template-editor level is far too high. The point of protecting high-risk templates is due to the havoc they can cause because they are transcluded in so many places. This documentation page is transcluded in two places: a sandbox and its parent template. Knock-on effects of disruptive editing for a documentation page are nearly zero. {{Infobox country}} is transcluded 6,000+ times; if you compare it to an incredibly high-risk template like {{Short description}} (5,000,000+ times), its documentation page isn't protected. Nor is the similar {{Infobox}}'s documentation page (3,000,000+ transclusions). Please unprotect it. Sdrqaz (talk) 04:29, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Perhaps I've asked for too high a level of protection... willing to except any increase in protection. looking at the history of the info box documentation page it should also be semi or whatever protected. Moxy- 04:37, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any extended confirmed disruptive editing in the page history? I don't see any but perhaps I'm missing something. I believe best practice is to use the minimum amount of protection needed. –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:19, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The page was full protected after Imadethisforherobrine began to edit it, but that editor is nowhere near ECP, so ECP would have prevented their disruption.

Oh look, we agree. I submitted a request a few minutes after this one; appending my rationale for completeness: Reason: An issue regarding the lead has been under continuous discussion since October 2022, but is subject to constant edit warring with impunity at the same time, while the discussion is ignored. The article is in WP:CTOPICS as part of Eastern European history, and recent events have also connected it to WP:GS/RUSUKR. Perhaps a low level of protection will help.  —Michael Z. 19:31, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wings of Fire (novel series)

Reason: Requesting extended autoconfirmed protection of page "Wings of Fire (novel series)": there seems to be consensus per the article's talk page that the article is likely a long-term sockfarm/fancruft target. Additionally, banned user CC8200's talk page issues a threat to anonymously vandalize this and other pages (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:CC8200) - one which is possibly being carried out at the moment considering a recent page vandalism. The page has inconsistently been threatened over the years, yet a protective precaution could stop countless problems. ^^ TheMysteriousShadeheart (talk) 19:37, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ja'far al-Sadiq

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. So far this year, there have been thirteen disruptive edits from IP editors, and four more from registered users. Often the attackers change the religious denomination of Ja'far al-Sadiq, even though there is really no question in reliable academic sources about his Shia beliefs, e.g., the Iranica article here. These edits are often caught early and reverted by other editors. Had it not been for their efforts, it is likely that the article would have been damaged further by unsourced and tendentious edits.

Reason: Doug Weller semi-protected this user talk page indefinitely in 2016. I'm not sure why indefinitely, but I would venture to guess the protection has ran its course. I asked the protecting administrator to unprotect, but they dismissed my request without explaining why the protection is still needed.

On a surface level, I would understand a temporary protection, but Gamaliel is an administrator, which means that their user talk page should normally be open for public editing. If the page is unprotected and Gamaliel is harassed by trolls or socks, any administrator – including Gamaliel – can of course apply a temporary semi-protection.

@Jéské Courian: Whatever reason it is, nine years is a bit too long for me.

Hogwarts Legacy

The article claims the game is set in 1899 but that is not possible as a letter in game states Sirius Black the second still is a Hogwarts student at that time, as he is born in 1877, he would have finished school by that time. Furthermore, a letter between Ursula Black and Phineas Black the Headmaster also states Cygnus Black has just started to crawl. As he is born in 1889, the likeliest year for the game to be set is in 1889 or 1890. TonkyBonks (talk) 17:27, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

10th_Separate_Mountain_Assault_Brigade_(Ukraine)

The article doesn't include anything about the controversy over the use of symbols associated with Nazi Germany in the modern Ukrainian miltary (see: Azov movement) and there was an edit war over this. It's a contentious issue but I feel that Wikipedia cannot simply ignore it, omitting it feels like the opposite of neutrality yet we also need context on how Russian propaganda exploits this situation. The edit war was frustrating. I requested the article be protected and now I hope someone can add the relevant information without it being erased.

The 10 Separate Mountain Assault Brigade's honorific name and symbol: 'Edelweiss' is controversial for the association with Nazi Germany's 1 Mountain Division, also called 'Edelweiss'. In light of the Ukrainian military's Azov movement and the parades for Stepan Bandera, this is extremely contentious and the information needs to be presented neutrally.

Little Jack Horner

Reason: This article being protected is unfair because this page is about the nursery rhyme of Jack Horner and not the film version but there was a section on this article about the film version and some IP addresses wanted to improve that section by adding that Jack Horner was the main antagonist of the film Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (which he was) and not some major antagonist and then added that the character portrayed in the movie was "megalomaniacal, ruthless, sadistic, and narcissistic" (which the film also portrayed him as that) and then this page got blocked. There was no need for this article to be protected, no disruptive vandalism ever happened on this page at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.151.194.14 (talk) 11:27, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This missing person, Nicola Bulley's disappearance has already attracted much unwanted speculation from the media and members of the public, with her family complaining about this also. This is something that will likely become more prevalent in coming days, if/when the body is confirmed to be Nicola's.

The anonymous user is 2605:A601:AE1E:400:E9D5:8FB1:1B39:E1B4. They have repeatedly added content asserting that the body is Nicola Bulley's, despite no announcement yet. Reduolf13 (talk) 18:53, 19 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This page includes the false allegation: In 2019, the Guardian newspaper reported that Dawson - a keen supporter of Brexit - was acting as the public face of the pro-Brexit organisation, Britain's Future[14].The organisation was the biggest single UK political advertiser on Facebook, spending £422,000 campaigning for a hard Brexit.[15] The money was spent buying "dark ads" targeting anti-Brexit politicians.[16] Dawson has refused to answer questions about who funded his campaign.[17]

Mr Dawson has never been arrested, charged or convicted of this and we can evidence this with his criminal record. Under Article 17 The Right to Erasure this must be deleted because it is Inadequate, it is not an adequate representation of him as an individual nor the nature of events. It is excessive as it suggests he is guilty of a crime. It is irrelevant because he has never been convicted or investigated of this and a significant amount of time has passed since. It is inaccurate too. This must be removed. We have edited this out multiple times but one individual under the name: Garnett F has been reposting it despite this breaching guidelines.

Please respond to this request via email:

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Users have repeatedly tried to alter details about the number of children had by the article's subject.

Reason: Vandalism, and someone has been spreading misinformation in the page about the person being of Bengali descent only, the person said himself in an interview that his family is from both Bangladesh and India, and thus he is both of Indian and Bangladeshi descent, but someone keeps editing it and changing it back to "Bangladesh" or "Bangladeshi" only and it has been going on for about a year, so I suggest this page should be locked down for protection and to stop misinformation being spread continuously. 43.245.123.52 (talk) 07:17, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Protection of this page is detrimental to the page, as it's missing a bunch of important information, and is heavily outdated.

Re: Edits to the "restricted" article on Wikipedia entitled "Muhammad in Islam"

To Whom It May Concern:

The protection allotted this article is no longer necessary because it has clearly been stated in the sacred writings of the Baha'i Faith that the prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is regarded as the "Seal of Thy Prophets and of Thy Messengers", this quote from Prayers and Meditations by Baha'u'llah: XXV, written by Baha'u'llah, co-founder of the Baha'i Faith and Himself a Manifestation of God. The foregoing established, it is misleading to represent Muslims as the only religious group to share this belief.

Reason: There is a history of IP edits being repeatedly made, dating back at least to September 2022.

Despite my reversals, edit summary comments, and leaving notes at some of the IPs talk pages, the edits continue unabated. Maybe a week of semi-protection would send the IPs elsewhere.

24.78.138.224

Reason: This is a University IP address, and we need it unblocked after it was wrongfully blocked for no reason given to us. It is against the rules of our University to ban and/or block ANY of our IP addresses here, as our students require the usage of them for their studies. Because it was a wrongful IP address "block" in the first place, giving our IP address page protection was especially unnecessary! In other words- it was never needed to begin with! Factchecker994 (talk) 12:25, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Wrong venue. This does not concern page unprotection, but IP address unblocking. You've already found your way to User talk:24.78.138.224 where such requests belong. Please be advised that Wikipedia is not subject to the university "rules" you quote above. Favonian (talk) 13:16, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, it DOES concern page unprotection, as many of our University's students have tried to edit our IP address's page at the request of our school's higher ups, as it says that we need to request page unprotection in order to be able to edit it! We have numerous users here, and we require that we be able to use the IP address! Oh- and EVERYBODY is subject to our University's rules, whether you know it or not! Factchecker994 (talk) 14:47, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, the page is not protected, but the IP adress is blocked. Lectonar (talk) 14:50, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The page is absolutely protected- I even shared the EXACT message that comes up whenever any of our students or faculty members try to edit our IP address's talk page! The dean of of University is working on getting the IP address unblocked, so it was left to me to do this part! PLEASE tell me you understand that at least! Factchecker994 (talk) 15:07, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This is what it says anytime any one of us students log in and try to edit our school's IP address page! "This page is currently semi-protected so that only established, registered users can edit it.
Why is the page protected?
While most articles can be edited by anyone, semi-protection is sometimes necessary to prevent vandalism to popular pages.
The reason for protection can be found in the protection log. If there are no relevant entries in the protection log, the page may have been moved after being protected.
What can I do?
If you have a user account, log in first. If you do not yet have an account, you may create one; after 4 days and 10 edits, you will be able to edit semi-protected pages.
Request that the page's protection level be reduced.
Find out more about how to get started editing Wikipedia.
If you have noticed an error or have a suggestion for a simple, non-controversial change, please check the talk page first in case the issue is already being discussed. If the issue has not been discussed yet, you can submit an edit request at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Edit. Make sure to clearly describe which page your request is about, and which change exactly you are requesting.
If you wrote any text, please save it temporarily to your device until you can edit this page." I myself should have the ability to edit such a page, as I have over 10 edits, and have been here for longer than 4 days, but I still get that message if I try to edit our IP address's page while logged in, which shouldn't be possible, as like I said, I have over 10 edits and have been here for longer than 4 days! It said to come on here and request page unprotection, so that's what I'm doing! That's what I had to do! Factchecker994 (talk) 14:51, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The talk-page is indeed protected. Please follow the kind advice Favonian has given above. Lectonar (talk) 14:56, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
We are unable to do that on the talk page, if anyone of our students try to edit anything on the talk page, it says- as follows- " "This page is currently semi-protected so that only established, registered users can edit it." That is exactly what I am, but for some asinine reason, even I cannot do anything on the talk page, which is why when it also said "Request that the page's protection level be reduced.", I knew I had to do that here. If I could've done it on the IP address's talk page, I would've, but despite being an established, registered user, I am unable to do anything on the talk page! Now do you understand the problem? Factchecker994 (talk) 15:03, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It wasn't "kind" advice though- it was rude and completely uncalled for! They also didn't realize that I had to come on here AFTER I was unable to do this same thing on our University's IP address talk page because it's protected. The fact that I am the one who has over 10 edits and has been here for over 4 days means that I myself should've been able to ask for this sort of thing on our IP address talk page, so it's baffling to me that I am unable to do that there despite having the qualifications to do so. That smells... fishy, wouldn't you say? Factchecker994 (talk) 15:20, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Not "fishy" at all. On the contrary, your account is so fresh that it won't be auto-confirmed until February 24, 05:50 (UTC). Favonian (talk) 16:51, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The talk page for our IP address has a notification saying that it is a semi-protected page. It didn't say that yesterday. Maybe it was done in error, maybe it wasn't, but regardless of that, it is indeed protected now! Factchecker994 (talk) 15:25, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: We students and faculty members cannot edit our IP address's talk page, if we try, we get the following message- " "This page is currently semi-protected so that only established, registered users can edit it." I myself am an established, registered user and yet I am unable to edit the talk page for some reason. As such, we CANNOT request this on our IP address talk page, because no one can edit it. If we could've done that, we wouldn't have needed to come here to do it! However, considering it also said "Request that the page's protection level be reduced.", and we are unable to edit anything due to that, I had no choice but to come here and request it- I hope you can understand! Factchecker994 (talk) 15:15, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Anachronist, thank you for the protection, but could you please undo the last edit you made? It states "Zack Hoyt" for Asmongold, which comes from an unreliable news source that uses incorrect information (i.e. wrong birth date) and shouldn't be used to rely on the name, as there is no reliable source supporting it and Asmongold never confirmed his name, other than his first name, Zack. It would be great if it could be removed in order not to potentially dox him, as this may be private information that he wouldn't want to be shared, if it were his true name.

    It's a page about a city councilor in Chicago. This is not a high traffic article, there's practically no content disputes, and I'm the only person whose edited the article in like 2-years. I don't believe an extended confirmed protection is necessary. Iamreallygoodatcheckers talk 03:36, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia must never be used and/or misused to harass anyone. Especially anonymous or non-notable individuals, or any person or individual of the private public at large. Edits constituting harassment such as the ones you have been making to harass RDJ, his cousin, who happens to also be his personal assistant, and other connected celebrities with this particular talk page. Your reverts, well over the three revert rule now, constitute harassment of this individual. Edits constituting harassment WILL BE REVERTED, DELETED, and EDITORS who engage in harassment are subject to BLOCKING AND BANNING.
This WP: HA policy applies to ALL Wikipedia editors, and Wikipedia administrators who engage in harassment, as well.
The harassment noted includes actions by a handful of Wikipedia editors calculated to be noticed by the target(s) and the specific named celebrities, and it IS clearly suggestive of targeting them, where no direct communication takes place with the non-noteworthy private individual, and the celebrities named in the discussion. Editors MrOllie and ElKevbo are guilty of harassment in this matter and their harassment continues unabated in violation of the Wikipedia policy WP: HA pertaining to harassment. Suggest blocking or banning user MrOllie and user ElKevbo.

The "disruptive edits" are only fixing clear mistakes and removing highly subjective phrasing. Note that the cited source indicates that Ingram was promoted to Major in 1995, yet you keep restoring the version that says 1996. 89.17.214.10 (talk) 16:19, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That is a lie. You are making major edits to an article using a proxy IP address after having had many other accounts and IP addresses blocked. You are de-facto banned from editing. Your behaviour is not innocuous and you must know that by now. This isn't just a date change and is it blatantly dishonest to pretend otherwise. DanielRigal (talk) 16:24, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The date change is an example. The bigger issues are fairly straightforward, and no one has offered a substantive objection, yet you keep reverting just because. 89.17.214.10 (talk) 16:26, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
He was right about a single date being wrong which I have corrected but the other stuff he was claiming is wrong.

Polish contribution to World War II

Reason: A small group of individuals involved in arbitration (because a research paper alleges manipulation and lies) are the primary editors of this topic. In my opinion the arbitration needs to resolve itself to conclusion while the editors in question should be recusing themselves. To be mentioned in an external research paper for promulgating falsehoods creates a conflict of interest that needs to be recognized as it calls into question the credibility of the platform. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case Flibbertigibbets (talk) 02:55, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Baloch people

Reason: There is no reason as to why a page that is barely checked in a year is receiving confirmed edit protection, apart from that the article currently isn't even a dispute point for which it has its security increased hence it is illogical for a page to recieve such protocol when other deserving pages like Sindhis, Kashmiris and Saraikis have no additional protection. Starkex (talk) 17:24, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Free Peru

Reason: Requesting permanent semi-protection due to persistent vandalism by an anonymous editor (possibly a group) who has been jumping from IPs and throwaway accounts to blank the article. Blanking has been going on since June 2022 and the vandalism immediately resumed on a near-daily basis after the temporary semi-protection expired. In my opinion it is pointless to have editors revert article blanks and restore, review, etc. again and again when the simplest solution is to restore the protection on a permanent basis.

Funimation

Reason: Here, an IP has added a class of very rare altered edits, it says in the summary of edits that included photos of the corporate offices and asked a class of questions on the discussion page of another IP about why the Crunchyroll website (the streaming service) was removed from both the infobox and external links when mixing with numerous competitors (section below) since it merged in mid-March 2022, almost barely a year since it began to consolidate into Crunchyroll itself. 179.52.223.99 (talk) 05:00, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question: And why do you want the page protected? Lectonar (talk) 14:16, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For this, it has partially reverted to the old edition to be able to migrate the bit of history from the Crunchyroll article, the recently merged streaming service and now it sounds confusing to me that it has the same owner with Sony if instead Funimation is still owned by Sony Corporation of America with a joint venture with Sony Pictures Television and Aniplex's Japanese subsidiary in the United States also owned by Sony. And it gets confused by placing the Crunchyroll website both in the infobox and external links. 179.52.223.99 (talk) 14:50, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I've gone cross-eyed. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 15:57, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
And have you protected the page yet? 179.52.223.99 (talk) 17:00, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like you want your edits protected and your edits are being reverted by @FilmandTVFan28:. So maybe this is a content dispute and needs discussion on the talk page. I will defer to @Lectonar: or another RfPP reviewer, but I do not see the need. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:09, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I just replied on my discussion page to the user here It is that I did not disrupt the edition on the Funimation page, in fact, I restored this confusion of Sony and Sony Pictures properties instead of saying that this is the current owner of Sony Pictures Television since 2017. Not Crunchyroll which is currently owned by Sony Group Corporation and Sony Pictures are different things. 179.52.223.99 (talk) 19:03, 27 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
