This is likely being done by a vandal that has been 100% proven to use VPNs before[3][4] this becomes more evident when looking at the similar editing style of the editors that are currently coordinating with each other to edit the article (compare [5] with [6]), I request to revert the page to either the version I made trying to get to a consensus with the warring editor(s)[7] or the estable version which administrator EvergreenFir reverted to just one day ago [8] (I leave it up to the criteria of the administrator that attends this case) and protect the page for some time.

    • The key point is that this isn't an isolated attack; it follows identical attacks on one Middle-earth character after another, e.g. Legolas (4 April), Gandalf (31 March and 4 April), Aragorn (3 April), Merry Brandybuck (2 April), Pippin Took (2 April), Gimli (1 April), Frodo Baggins (1 April), Samwise Gamgee (1 April) and so on. A huge amount of effort is being spent reverting the vandalism and blocking socks on each of these, one night after another. I suggest we now limit edit access to all of these articles for say 6 months, and then we can see if the sockpuppeteers have quietened down a bit.

@Daniel Case: I already declined a duplicate request below. The main reason was because EvergreenFir warned the two editors responsible for most of the reverting and the second request seemed to be WP:GAMING to protect the version favored by one of the users edit warring (the current version). Instead of protecting the page, it seems like a more targeted action (blocks) would be possible here if the edit warring resumes. I'm fine with leaving it protected if you still think that's the better option. Regards. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:34, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Since this seems to involve three related articles (see the above requests), I think it best to protect all three for the same length of time. Daniel Case (talk) 22:43, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I also do not understand why you would removing the duplicate report with the differing administrator decision instead of discussing it. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:37, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So there wasn't any confusion. Daniel Case (talk) 22:41, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That cannot be less confusing for users than simply responding to the duplicate response with an explanation or additional discussion. And the response included the dispute resolution recommendation that editor sorely needed. Please don't do that, especially when there is a response, and especially without some sort of communication with the requestor. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:57, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Havana syndrome

Reason: Edit warring and even disagreements over what is the last stable version. So I ask for an admin to protect it and reset it to the last stable version. Slatersteven (talk) 17:58, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was going to come here earlier this morning, but I got hopeful thinking issues had maybe settled. I've mostly been watching this from noticeboards and trying to keep content discussion on the rails with little luck too.
First thing is I don't think there's a stable version in this case in terms of timeline. Even outside of "normal" content disputes that end up here, there's discussion on the talk page from more outside editors on that on the talk page. That's in part because a lot of uncontested improvements were made where just reverting back to an older version causes more problems, so it's probably better to go with WP:THEWRONGVERSION.
The underlying problem at this article that needs to be addressed though is that when content has been removed, editors have been repeatedly ignoring and violating WP:ONUS policy. When content is removed for legitimate reason, you can't say "no consensus for removal" and use that to justify your own edit warring to blanket revert. If it is locked in at the current version, that would at least discourage the ONUS violating and PP would force those editors to actually get consensus. I don't approve of everything in that version, but it's a very workable starting point to work on getting consensus for content to add for all the parties involved. That version at least gets things down to more of a base version. KoA (talk) 18:11, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You are requesting full protection on the current version? For how long? EdJohnston (talk) 18:17, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure if you meant Slater or me in your threading, but the current version would be a more base version that doesn't throw out all the uncontested article improvements. I'd say a week minimum full protection is probably need just to get people focusing hashing out content on the talk page. Neither of Slater or I had any luck getting people to cut back on blanket restorations. KoA (talk) 18:34, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would dislike any reset that lets either side get what it wants, neutrality would be pissing both sides off. Any noncontroversial material or tags can always be reinserted. Slatersteven (talk) 18:39, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fully protected – Two weeks per User:KoA's analysis. If anyone believes the article has been protected on the wrong version, please make an edit request on the talk page. EdJohnston (talk) 18:42, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I was typing this before you made your comment, so I just wanted to note that it appears even people who don't like the current version agree with just starting with it. Hopefully that does the trick. KoA (talk) 18:47, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: The politician's Wikipedia page experiences persistent edits containing inaccurate information, primarily from IP addresses. This makes it difficult to identify the source and creates a situation where false information can be repeatedly added - this has been repetitively seen in the pages history of edits. Anonymous edits raise concerns about potential manipulation, particularly during sensitive periods. It's challenging to differentiate between genuine edits and attempts to spread misinformation - especially as its the same re-edits.

2024 Indian general election state-wise articles

1-2 Months Extended Protection: Persistent and very extensive sockpuppetry by Srimonbanik2007. Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations is jammed with cases, taking too long, sometimes more than a week in which time he is creating multiple accounts, develops sleepers before a case finishes, bypasses any semi-protection and it has gone somewhat out of control.

Women_in_punk_rock

Reason: Need to allow community to decide that Linda Lindas are not significant. Individual editor removed, without discussion, an entry about the band saying that they didn't meet WP criteria. This is far from the case as they are probably the most significant women in punk rock so far this decade given their huge impact and the acclaim they have had from other artists. To accuse me of an edit war based on me reverting my entry and ADDING multiple sources (New York Times, Rolling Stone, Variety, NPR, etc.) which clearly indicate that this band meets WP criteria, is insulting and an abuse of the edit war mechanism. They have made this into an personal attack. DrKC MD (talk) 00:39, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

World War II in Yugoslavia

Reason: Unacceptable omissions of the role of the Chetniks during WW2. Some edits have been made to portray them as non-collaborators, and this is a form of denialist historiography. The Chetniks did collaborate and this is supported by mainstream reliable sources such as Yad Vashem, the official Israeli memorial museum to the Holocaust, which the Chetniks took part in. See link below and the talk page.

Declined. This dispute has spread to other articles, and evidently also involves Spanish Wikipedia. Repeatedly protecting pages in situations like this makes it so that only edit warriors can actually get edits in, which is the opposite of what we want. I have partially-blocked several editors from a number of articles, and if that doesn't get the message across that edit warring is not allowed then siteblocks will follow.

2024 Indian general election articles

Extended confirmed protection: I had requested extended protection on a list of articles before due to very extensive sockpuppetry going on for months, each time accounts are created days before they become active to bypass semi-protection easily. My request was rejected because the person looking at it thought it was "pre-emptive" but it wasn't. It is ongoing.

Now the latest batch of socks has been blocked so I am requesting it again with a more conservative list. I would prefer it on all state-wise 2024 election articles as he has been editing in all of them through his various socks, throughout his time here but these are the ones where there is very high activity from him in the recent times. Sockpuppet investigations is jammed with cases, sometimes it takes far too long for it to get seen to, which makes the situation go out of control. I can see another account which has popped up that is possibly a new sock.

If you want to check just see the contributions of XYZ 91973 (Not to be confused with XYZ 250706 who he was trying to impersonate) and before that Horace Dendy and so on and so on. Thank you. MrMkG (talk) 17:44, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gadaria people

Reason: I am reopening this request because I feel my last request was archived and declined prematurely, before I could respond. The reason I am making the request is because of persistent, low-level disruption over almost the entire history of the page by non-ECV and IP users. While it's relatively low level and sufficiently rare that it can be managed by playing whack-a-vandal, it's a nuisance to do so. I would appreciate if an admin could raise the protection level to extended confirmed. The admin responding to the last request stated I should warn the user first; however, this is difficult if not impossible to do, and almost certainly will not result in any real change, because (1) the involved users are mostly IP users, who cannot be effectively warned (2) it isn't the same user; there's a new schmuck who shows up every few weeks or so and decides to start adding a bunch of low quality edits to this and other pages about Indian shepherding groups. I got Kuruba page protected for similar reasons (a page also about an Indian shepherding community that attracts the same kind of disruptive edits); I don't see why this doesn't satisfy the same criteria. Thank you. Brusquedandelion (talk) 03:04, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected indefinitely. Unfortunately there is no designated contentious topic area that covers Turkey per se. I don't see why they're shouldn't be, since it lies between three other recognized such (geographical) areas and it increasingly—particularly the Ottoman past—inspires contentious and nationalistic editing. But at least I can do this. Daniel Case (talk) 19:34, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The rate of disruption does seem to have slowed down so I might have declined this too. @Lectonar: Although semi-protection could be justified under WP:CT/BLP, this could be a reasonable candidate for pending changes protection. Regards. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 17:24, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:Aditya-an11/Key

Indefinite full protection: Persistent vandalism – This page contains my PGP Public Key which is important for proving my identity in case of an untimely emergency [41]. Thus, by nature, it shouldn't be messed with. Aditya-an11 (talk) 12:01, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can any other admin here shed any light on whether this is something we routinely do for committed-identity pages? I don't recall any other ones being protected. Daniel Case (talk) 03:29, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay here is some context. The page contains both my PGP key and SHA-512 signature. These Keys are crucial in case of breach, or in cases where I have to affirm my identity. A good example, as linked in the original reply, would be Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2007-05-14/Committed identity. Moreover, developers like me regularly use these Keys to sign and verify our packages. This is quite a common practice.
Also, I do see pages like User:Gwern/Key being protected.
Vandalizing these keys would just mean tampering with my 'digital identity' in some sense. The true significance of security keys would be lost if it can be tampered that easily. Aditya-an11 (talk) 06:37, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Crazytales: for input; they protected the key-page mentioned above. I have neither protected any such page before, nor have I seen a request for it afair. Lectonar (talk) 06:57, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, @Lectonar:, but I think WP:UPPROT says that a user can very well request for Page-Protect. I believe my request is valid. However, if there is any other medium through which I can Page-Protect my /Key page, please guide me. I am a beginner to Wikipedia, and I am learning from others.
User:Gwern have their page protected for the same reason I have provided, and this is partly what prompted me to protect my /Key page as well. Protective Precaution is the key (no puns). Aditya-an11 (talk) 13:26, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you are beginner to Wikipedia, you're a quick learner :). Your request is at least not routinely done afaict, so I am in the same position as Daniel...I want to have shed (more) light on this. Lectonar (talk) 14:17, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see no reason not to grant this request - WP:UPROT says User pages and subpages within their own user space can be protected upon a request from the user, as long as a need exists. Pages within the user space should not be automatically or preemptively protected without good reason or cause. Even if it's not something we personally would think is necessary for ourselves I see enough of a good reason to protect. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:35, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And of course not doing this will likely just encourage abuse of the automatic CSS/JS protection like User:Sceptre/modules/boxes.css * Pppery * it has begun... 17:35, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's sort of rich considering that protection was requested by a non-autoconfirmed user, who chose to template-warn a user with well over half a million edits (way more than me) and over a decade on Wikipedia.
If full protection is desired, it should have been specified in the request. And frankly the edit warring is not yet so serious as to warrant it IMO. Not with the talk page discussion not yet open. Daniel Case (talk) 21:18, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tanikhel

Reason: Insistent rabid IP obsession over changing the race of a clan to a completely alien one (Afghan to Hindko) And since it is a quiet article the person, who uses multiple IP addresses for this will silently creep back eventually. Very obscure and shocking for anyone to observe. The page has 0 restriction limit, it needs a restriction, doesn't need to be high but it needs a long duration (1 year?)

I just explained to you that for months the article was listing with a different ethnicity at an IP user's insistence (again a very unique problem/occurance on wiki). He has also present doing the same activities on Tokhi, Bettani and a disruption of a historical war detail on Utmanzai (Sarbani tribe). How many articles is that? It has been going on for months and the guy literally came back yesterday to continue! RevolutionaryPatriot (talk) 16:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bbb23 I'm afraid I don't understand your reasoning. I would like to add the page Tani Khel, which is supposed to be a redirect page, but until I just now reverted it, was not, thanks to this individual's vandalism. On that page, the dude's vandalism had been allowed to stand for upwards of half a year because it is a page with basically 0 eyes on it. The most recent edits are from just a couple weeks ago, is that not recent enough? Both of these pages need protection. Brusquedandelion (talk) 20:30, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@RevolutionaryPatriot one correction: the article Tanikhel was actually about a town, not a tribe, before this edit by the IP vandal. The article about the tribe you are thinking of may be Tanoli. Brusquedandelion (talk) 20:43, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Daniel Case: thanks for the answer. What would be the next recommended procedure for this ~three-word "article"? Just delete it? Just leave it be? I'm not familiar with deletion processes, so which deletion template should I use? There was one AfD back in 2015, so I guess it requires another AfD? Or? 2001:14BA:9CD6:4200:B115:F854:5C3C:E971 (talk) 19:41, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And now the person in question is "a stalker". Is this really the state we want this article to be? Also, you wrote "all they did was remove unsourced and unencyclopedically written content" - but, in my opinion, the "all they did" is a weird choice of words, because the same person also vandalizes the article every now and then both here on en-wiki and fi-wiki. 2001:14BA:9CD6:4200:B115:F854:5C3C:E971 (talk) 20:54, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You undoing because of BJP bias. I am not doing vandalism. I love Wikipedia. Admin please check my editing. This person is lying that i do vandalism to stopping me to edit. Bjp lost 2 election. Upa alliance & admk won 2 elections. You are wrongly putting BJP in 2nd.2409:4072:6102:9B3F:5A78:57B1:B6C7:A72F (talk) 10:09, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"I am not doing vandalism", "I love Wikipedia". These statements are not helping your reasoning. Despite your arguments that BJP lost last 2 elections, it remains a fact that the party came second twice, both without AIADMK alliance and with AIADMK alliance. Infact in 2014, DMK was 3rd. If CPIM had been fighting again in place of DMK, then they would be placed in the top. But they are not fighting on the seat, DMK is. Hence they are positioned third.
P.S. If I was biased towards BJP, I would have placed them on first position, not second. Additionally, the reason that I have made this request here is persistent vandalism to K. Annamalai's name. IP addresses like you are vandalising his name just because of his political inclination. I will continue to revert such edits.

I am not doing Vandalism. You are saying my normal edit as vandalisms. You only wanting me to stop editing. First show one proof of me doing Vandalisms.

You only are doing it. Placing a party on first position which came third in 2014. The positioning is based on parties, not alliances. BJP came second twice so your argument doesn't hold weight. FlyJet777 (talk) 15:25, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP hopper removing content controversially. Jalen Folf (Bark[s]) 19:00, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined As I said yesterday, all the IP is doing is removing unsourced content and asking that actual sources be provided. I would agree they could handle this better, but in fact restoring that content is the more disruptive action. After all, we do warn people that "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable through citations to reliable sources" every time they edit; we used to warn them that unsourced content could be removed by anyone at any time. I am not going to protect a page because someone is editing too much in conformity with policy for another editor's taste.
It takes two to tango here. Perhaps the better solution would be removing the unsourced content to the talk page or userspace and inviting the IP to work on finding sources (they have claimed to be a native Finnish speaker, after all). If you would like full protection for a few days to make that happen, then please specifically request it. Daniel Case (talk) 20:17, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Owen Hurcum

Reason: Hi all

The article Owen Hurcum has repeatedly had IP editors missgendering them (I can find 5 different examples in the article history) and one edit saying they are delusional which is clearly a violation of BLP, unfortunately this is kind of transphobic vandalism is becoming more common in the UK. Please can it have a protection added, whichever you think is most appropriate, I worry that because it is a lower traffic article it will get vandalised by IP addresses or new accounts and then not corrected for quite a while.

Thanks very much John Cummings (talk) 18:23, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I actually see, in the deep history, a lot more nationalistic disruption than misgendering. Should disruption (which hasn't occurred for two weeks; the diff you linked is over six months old) recur, BLP might be stronger grounds for protection (even if the talk page does have a GENSEX notice). While I have advocated for adding ECR to GENSEX protections, that's based on the general experience by which we've had to protect many articles about trans people; by those standards this article has been remarkably calm on that front (I will RevDel the diff you linked, though).

List of awards and nominations received by Sarah Geronimo

Reason: Increase incidents of disruptive editing. User Dha BSMYR has been adding non-notable subsidiary awards that are mostly not high-quality sources (Imdb) or unsourced content. Other editors have reverted the edits, but does not seem to have changed their behavior. Worth protecting page as user seems to be newly registered and with under 10 edits.

  • Automated comment: One or more pages in this request appear to already be protected. Please confirm.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 02:39, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, the page was moved, and before it was moved, it was move protected a few times. Not sure why without digging into the talk page history, but it wasn't accidental. [63]. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 13:52, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined The move protection was definitely not an error (the articles of some seasons were moved about until people had decided on the titling with or without parentheses), and it does no real harm being there, so I don't see a compelling reason to move-unprotect. Furthermore, there's no article in sight for which it would be necessary to unprotect. Lectonar (talk) 14:55, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hossein Mahmoudi

Unprotection: The page is protected because one user tried to create it to promote himself User:Arc.Hossein Mahmoudi, that was long time ago, not necessary anymore , beside that I want to move the page Hussain Mahmoudi (a completely different person) into this or at least redirect it into that page. Sports2021 (talk) 02:41, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I would hesitate simply because I don't think your article would stand a chance at AFD, as it doesn't list a single independent reliable source, which is absolutely required for a BLP. You only have two bio style cites which do not establish notability. I tagged but didn't send to AFD. So this doesn't overcome the original purpose of the protection. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 00:44, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I would tend to not unprotect too...it would perhaps be wise to draftify this. Lectonar (talk) 11:21, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined and moved to Draft space until you can provide at least two WP:RS that have WP:SIGCOV and are independent of the general topic. ENWP is littered with stubs like this that don't pass the criteria for inclusion, but per Lectonar, I think it is better to Draftify than go to AFD in these cases where the person exists, but there isn't enough meat on the bone to stay in mainspace. Once it has multiple RS/SigCov sources, then it would be easy to move back and deal with this protected article. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 13:13, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We generally aren't supposed to draftily articles older than 90 days, but then there's WP:LUGSTUBS and WP:LUGSTUBS2 and while this wasn't technically part of either list it shows that principle probably doesn't hold in this context. * Pppery * it has begun... 15:05, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ed Young (Fellowship Church)

Reason: The Wikipedia page for Pastor Ed Young has experienced persistent non-constructive edits and the addition of potentially biased or poorly sourced contentious material, particularly within the "Lifestyle" section of the article. This section relies on an investigative report from WFAA, which utilizes unnamed sources, raising significant concerns about the verifiability and reliability of the information. Additionally, the Dallas News article that supports the WFAA piece does not provide independent verification but merely echoes the original report.

Recent discussions on the talk page and BLP talk page have highlighted recurring issues with these edits potentially breaching BLP policy. The repeated addition of this material without a consensus indicates a risk of disseminating unverified or misleading information, which could be damaging to the subject of the article and misleading for readers. 5dondons (talk) 15:11, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

UEFA Euro 2024 broadcasting rights

Reason: Can you guys request the edits in this page to be only for registred users only? I want make sure people read edit notes and page sources before do the edits, It is the 3rd time in a different broadcast list that someone tries to run over the consensus via the sources shown that USA and Canada rights are sold by language basis instead of national/regional basis, but people STILL try run over it, the last thing i want is a edit war or some ipuser doing mess with the lists, so please can you lock the page for registred users only? Meganinja202 (talk) 19:07, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. This seems to be an editorial dispute: you want the list to be one way, other editors want the list to be a different way, but it's not obvious (to me) that either way is correct, and so I can't say that any of these edits are disruptive. They're not disruptive on purpose, at least. Please try discussing this on the article's talk page before requesting protection. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:52, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I tried in the past, i had not solved the problem beacuse the most of the ones that cause it are ipusers that i have no way to talk with unless they make a account.
They simply evade the talkpage and do the edits they want, I had tried resolve it via the talk page in the past, but it was ignored by the same users, I decided to do it as last resort to try motivate to people at least opent to debate Meganinja202 (talk) 21:05, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand, and usually I would take it to their talk pages, but the high number of different IPs (5 in total) who all made the same wrong changes, as well as the edit summary of the only non-IP to edit this page (who made the initial wrong change) didn't leave me with much hope of solving this in a constructive manner. :/ Seelentau (talk) 21:59, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • I just randomly checked a few different years and found they are all semi-protected. To be honest, I'm not inclined to reduce protection because there isn't a huge demand for editing these articles by the largest number of people. This means they aren't watched by a huge number of people, and the possibility of vandalism going unnoticed is much higher, so the risk of unprotecting is greater than the possible gains by allowing IPs and new editors to edit. Semi-protect is such a low bar, I can't see how this is damaging the article, but I do see how this stops hit and run vandalism that might go unnoticed for extended periods of time. Will leave open for another opinion. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 04:53, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

January 6 United States Capitol attack

The editing of this page is extremely biased and breaks the procedure for how an article should remain unbiased. It sounds like it was written by a far left news media and thats because almost all the sources are far left news media sources. I understand the page is extremely big but the bias is even larger. Any moderate or independent would look at that and think they were on CNN or MSNBC news article.

I would love to reply unambiguously about the changes more than how biased it is. But that would require me to take the time and basically rewrite the entire article from scratch. Also the talk page is semi protected which is why I posted it here instead of the talk page on the article. PoliticalFact (talk) 00:44, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2024 Iranian strikes in Israel

The middle portion of the lede repeats the phrase "sho(o)t down" five times in close succession, which to my ear is past the point at which it starts to grate. Plus, "shot down in space" is conceptually questionable. Suggest diluting this with near-synonyms such as "destroy", "intercept", "neutralize", and maybe "down", "bring down", et cetera. - 2A02:560:59A1:EF00:A1F4:52E0:466E:8128 (talk) 08:51, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

History of Palestine

The article refers to Palestine as a "country", even in the ancient period. This is false and misleading. The evidence is in the article itself. This was done with the intention of accusing Israel of invading a "country" called Palestine. That's a lie.

- Oxford Dictionary defines "coun·try" as a nation with its own government. It defines "na·tion" as a large body of people united by common descent, history, culture, or language. Neither of definitions applies to Palestine, certainly not before 1988, when the Palestine National Council proclaimed the State of Palestine. That State is NOT recognized by over 50 member-states of the UN.

- Before 1988, it was a REGION with a NAME, under foreign rule, not a "country". The name "Palestinian" used to refer to both Jewish and non-Jewish residents, who lived there, side-by-side, for centuries.

- The last time it was independent, indigenous, and self-governing was under the ancient Hebrews. - Since the ancient Hebrews, it's been under continuous foreign rule by foreign invaders.

- 1516 - 1918: Ottoman

- 636 - 1516: Islamic Arab

- 63 BCE - 636 AD: Roman (who named it Palestine to erase Jewish identity)

Reason: IP vandalism Scu ba (talk) 17:51, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would not call it vandalism. There's an edit-war. The side that's removing content is appealing to WP:BLP policy, albeit without Wikipedia jargon. Per policy, their concerns ought to be addressed before restoring the content. That's not happening. The fully restored article does read like an attack page. This revision that the IP tried seems without urgent problems. I would suggest protecting it there and directing the parties to seek consensus for addition of controversial content, per BLP. — Usedtobecool ☎️ 18:59, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

UEFA Euro 2024 broadcasting rights

Reason: I need to ask again, beacuse, as expected, ipuser ignored my calls to take it to talk page, he had ignored also my asking for him have a account so i could talk with him in a way we could reach consensus, so i can safely assume that he purposely avoided any type of consensus talk, no matter what i tried.

There has no other way, this is the not the first time it happens, i am asking for semi-protection not as preventive measure, but as last resort agnaist the lack ot interest in make consensus and as a way to avoid a edit war that would make more harm than good Meganinja202 (talk) 21:15, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an admin but... "he had ignored also my asking for him have a account so i could talk with him in a way we could reach consensus" is just wrong. No IP is obligated to listen to you and get an account. You can talk with them, and reach consensus, without them needed to have an account.
You also could have posted on the IP's talk page. @Meganinja202 Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 21:27, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
does ip have talk page? as far i know, only users has talk page

Also i want be clear, its not my intention force him to have account, I want to talk with him and try reach a consensus, but as far i tried, he ingored my plea for debate into a consensus, I feel he may try make it into a edit war if things stay as it is. Meganinja202 (talk) 21:33, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IPs have talk pages. You asked once and didn't post anywhere. "I feel he may try make it into a edit war" - it's already an edit war, one that you are nearly just as wrong in. @Meganinja202 Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 22:33, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As I said before, this is the not the first time I tried to put a final conensus about the theme, each time I tried on the last 12 months to put a consensus about it, the IP user had ignored any plea for talk, I will try find his talk page, but i dont have any hope he will try be comunicative about it Meganinja202 (talk) 22:47, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But ok, i will go ahead and make the edit to the page, as you instruct.

This page was protected under the auspices of WP:GS/RUSUKR and shouldn't be unilaterally unprotected. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 15:42, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done. No incidents have occurred in the article for almost a year because of the protection. Because the Russia-Ukraine conflict is still a contentious topic, I see no reason to unprotect at this time. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:19, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes the Russia-Ukraine conflict is still a contentious topic, but for this specific article I think that enough time has passed since any notable events involving the items in the article (specifically the Ivan Khurs naval vessel) for the protection to be lowered. Articles on similar topics with similar issues, such as Russian cruiser Moskva, Sinking of the Moskva, Russian patrol ship Vasily Bykov, Russian landing ship Novocherkassk, Russian ship Tsezar Kunikov, and Russian corvette Ivanovets have a lower protection. IvtI 09 (talk) 21:33, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. The edit filter log shows disruption from as little as 2 years ago, and there has been disruption just this month from an autoconfirmed account, as well as other disruption a year ago. If those that are getting past the protection due to being autoconfirmed is representative of the vandalism attempts from unconfirmed editors (which would be greater in number), then removing the protection doesn't seem warranted at this time. ~Anachronist (talk) 05:02, 21 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Pinging Anachronist, who did the original protection. The original protection was a bit of a nuclear bomb, as it had never been protected before, however, it was a highly effective and innovative use of the tools, so I'm not complaining. I'm thinking semi (or unprotect) might be ok at this point. The original "problem" editors haven't edited since protection was put in place. The article doesn't attract a lot of traffic, and if the problem pops back up, it can be dealt with at that time. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 06:09, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I remember that one. Not only were there multiple COI editors who were all autoconfirmed and refused to engage on the talk page, but one of them was lodging complaints at VRT, which is how this article got my attention. The only solution was ECP. I made it indefinite because I didn't know how long those with a stake in the various controversies would stick around. No objection to reducing to semi, although ECP should be restored if COI editing resumes. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:15, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Macrobians

The suggestion of macrobia being in the Somali region is misleading since most ancient writers are referring to Sudan as macrobia: William Smith in his ‘Dictionary of Greek and Roman Geography’, 1854, also believed that the long-lived Ethiopians (or Macrobians) must have been the inhabitants of central and southern Sudan:

If, then, we do not yield up the Macrobii to myth or fable altogether, we must seek for them in some district nearer Aegypt. Whatever tribe or region Cambyses intended to subdue, gold was abundant, and brass, or rather copper, scarce among them. Now the modern inhabitants of Kordofan (15° 20′--10° N. lat., 28°--32° E. long.) are commonly called Nobah, and Nob is an old Aegyptian word for gold. Again, the Macrobii were singularly tall, well proportioned and healthy; and Kordofan has, from time immemorial, supplied the valley of the Nile with able-bodied and comely slaves of both sexes (Hume, ap. Walpole, Turkey, p. 392).

This is more accurate; Somalia certainly was not macrobia and any attempts to suggest this will mislead researchers on the topic. ProfZumali (talk) 06:47, 22 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alyson Hannigan

Reason: Request increase of duration of current page protection

Since 16 March 2024, the article Alyson Hannigan has been semi-protected 6 times, accompanied by revdel of RD2 blp violations. In one of the 16 March edit summaries (can't link because of revdel), they wrote Hey User:Schazjmd here's a little secret. I'll NEVER give up. I'll keep doing this forever if I have to. When the protection expires, they start up again. The most recent protection (today) is only for 2 days. Please extend this protection for several months, maybe that will bore the vandal out of this obsession. Schazjmd (talk) 20:06, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ymblanter Thank you so much for the protection. But I guess 1 month of protection is not enough here, as it was earlier protected for 6 months in 2022 by EIC for the same lead blanking per the article's history. Assuming it has been on the agenda of an LTA for years, do you mind protecting it for indefinite duration, please? Regards. Maliner (talk) 20:47, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, I think the duration is appropriate given the circumstance, but I do not mind if another admin would protect it for a longer duration. Ymblanter (talk) 20:49, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, @Ymblanter, for your permission. I will ping @Harry if he can help us here. Regards Maliner (talk) 20:59, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think a month is a reasonable starting point and I wouldn't normally override another admin unless I thought their decision was completely unreasonable. If the problems come back after that, we can look at longer-term protection (I'm loathe to protect anything indefinitely because I've seen too many articles languish on indefinite protection years after the problems have gone away).

Women in punk rock

Reason: Editor who created the page some time ago claims authority over content (in part based on hidden comments at the start ofthe article, but even so the entry meets even those arbitrary and non-community based crtieria). He, and a cronie have taken it upon themselve to revert any changes that he doesn't personally approve of. After posting to talk page, there was no sustantiative ojections other than me receiving unwarrently warninngs and treats that they would ban me for ojecting to the aritrary removal of the entry about the Linda Lindas. I have had it with the other two who have been tag-teaming ad hominem attacks since they first took a high-handed and condescendng rejection of earlier response to a claim that the band was not noteworthey enough to be on this guys pet page---and I was accused of starting and edit war because I reverted their deletion and added citations from multiple national caliber publications which clearly supported the band meetng any sort of criteria for inclusion. I am sick of how i have been mistreated, maligened and harasses on pages that have nothing to do with anythign related. This is my last contriution to wiikipedia, as I am just stick this sort of behavior. DrKC MD (talk) 07:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined and I reverted your adding the PP icon on the page. I don't think you understand what page protection is. It would only stop new users from adding content, it wouldn't stop established editors from editing the page. Admin don't get involved with content disputes, normally. You need to use the talk page of the article and build a consensus for the changes you want to make. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 07:39, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Persistent disruptive editing from previous socks & master who were blocked, has now moved on to persistent disruptive editing of an unsourced date from various IPs. It now appears that only permanent extended confirmed protection will protect this article from the drip-drip-drip of this editor/contributor/vandal. Shearonink (talk) 13:01, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. That page has been protected zero times prior (ever), Shearonink, so jumping straight to WP:ECP without attempting WP:SEMI first, seems premature, as most possibly all recent disruptive named accounts are either already blocked indef or are not WP:CONFIRMED at this time (regardless if it's the same master or not). To combat drip-drip-drip, report more often as problems arise. Thanks. El_C 14:03, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Chloe Cole

Reason: The page has been protected for about a year. Since then, much more information has come out about Chloe Cole. It would be beneficial for the community to be able to contribute more information. Also, since then, Chloe Cole is much less of a contentious topic, meaning there is much less of a likelihood of disruptive edits. And even if there were to be disruptive edits, it is not a significant issue; it is not worth banning everyone from editing the page due to a few individuals because it hinders our freedom to give genuine improvements to wikipedia, and goes against the principle of the website. Archosaur96 (talk) 17:20, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. Talk:Chloe Cole is not protected.

Neolithodes

Reason: Extensive, near-constant IP vandalism, and I have absolutely no idea why. On top of that, Michael10020 appears to be the same spammer as Michael2176, who was indefinitely blocked for spam on these articles. The IP addresses 112.198.112.226, 112.198.112.167, and 112.198.112.172 from the Philippines appear to be part of this as well (all spamming, all in the 112.198.112.X block of addresses). Although many articles on Lithodidae (king crabs) have been spammed by this person, Neolithodes has been hit the hardest. Requesting semi-protection, and I will also be requesting a blanket IP ban on that range of addresses at the noticeboard. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 16:38, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Hacked youtube channels will usually associate themselves with this company which can be a major point of contention as fans of said youtube channels would come to the WIkipedia page and attempt to add the hacking incident to the page (and though it most likely isn't the fault of the actual company, it isn't out of question if it actually is, though I'm not bothering to check). I would also suggest adding an FAQ to the Talk page section. Channel hackings that associate themselves with this company has happened more than once and it would eventually happen again.

No idea why I was pinged here, but indefinite protection seems seriously overkill.

Safety of Rwanda (Asylum and Immigration) Act 2024

Reason: The article has been the subject of persistent vandalism which editors have had to remove. It is likely, given that the Act has just passed, and given the nature of the Act which is to remove asylum seekers from the United Kingdom to Rwanda, it will persist in being the victim of vandalism in the near future. I would propose an interim WP:SILVERLOCK be imposed. I will also add that, as can be seen from the history page, some of the comments appear to be racist, inflammatory and scurrilous.

Nasimi Aghayev

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Saw this article recently, and from looks of it, a long time edit-warring disruptive user has been on it. The user’s entire contribution to wikipedia involves almost exclusively this one article (both in english wikipedia and commons [89], [90]), and the user is likely closely associated with the article person. The user edit-wars and either removes sourced info, or changes sourced info from secondary to “press release” primary and engages in selective quoting from same primary reference while removing/modifying secondary sourced info. The least we can do is protect the page imo. AntEgo (talk) 10:09, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite semi-protection: Given the number of times this page has bursts of unnecessary edits and vandalism, I think indefinite semi-protection is warranted. I understand these are managable but I (and many others) would prefer we block them permanently rather than go through an endless routine. It would put this page on the same protection level as pages protection, in my humble opinion, for a lot less. Omnis Scientia (talk) 11:53, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: This page has been vandalised ever since it was created, by both users and IPs, which is why I request extended confirmed protection. Us as the good users cannot keep reverting these edits, as cars are obscure on WP, making them a good target for vandals. Here are some counts of vandalism: [91] [92] [93] [94] [95] [96] [97] [98] [99] [100] [101] [102] [103] [104] and there too much more to count, which is why I request extended confirmed protection  750h+ | Talk  16:07, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection.

@Gråbergs Gråa Sång: the nomination for speedy deletion doesn't reset the clock for a G13, which is still ticking from when the draft was last edited by its creator back in November 2023. It's clearly going nowhere as an article so no objection to an Xfd, but imho because speedy deletion is single-determiner the criteria are quite strict for good reason. :) -- Euryalus (talk) 08:24, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Nableezy Deletes every time the paragraph that Amnesty claimed that Israel imprisoned a Palestinian writer while he was a terrorist who murdered and kidnapped an Israeli soldier.

Shivaji

Reason: Disruptive editing on the title of Shivaji, without discussing it on the talk page. Frequent edit warring and suspecting meatpuppetry. Imperial[AFCND] 10:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article has been under indefinite semi-protection for about five years now. It does not appear to me that going to ECP would make much of a difference as many contributors already have that user right. The only thing I could imagine doing that could force more talk page discussion would be imposing 1RR. Would you be amenable to that? (I have put a long-overdue CTOPS notice on the talk page). Daniel Case (talk) 20:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't have a strong opinion, but looking at edits from the last 2 weeks, 3 out of 8 users involved in the dispute over titles are not EC so ECP probably would improve the situation over the long run. I suspect that even if EC editors reach consensus, the title dispute will continue. Perhaps full protection for a week or two followed by indefinite ECP? Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't like imposing full protection when it's not been requested; that solution also requires setting the watchlist ping to come back and reimpose the indef. And any ECP would not have a "long run" effect since the three editors excluded would likely work to increase their edit counts, PGAME or not, to the point that they could edit the page again (Some day we will have the authority and ability to make page-specific user access level revocations ...).

1RR is frankly to me the best long-term solution here, but I'd still like to hear from the requester. So, @ImperialAficionado:, any thoughts here? Daniel Case (talk) 18:35, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: @JoeK2033 There's no recent history of vandalism on this page – there was a spot of attempted vandalism in December 2023, but it's not justification enough to protect it. As per WP:PREEMPTIVE, Wikipedia policy is to not pre-emptively protect articles, as it goes against the spirit of an encyclopaedia anyone can edit.

Zonhoven

Reason: User FateHags99 persistently attempts to include a particular individual in the "Notable persons born/raised in Zonhoven" section, despite the individual lacking significant notability. This behavior extends to both the Dutch and French versions of Wikipedia.

Given the ongoing addition of a person lacking clear notability, I request page protection for the article. Ø11 (talk) 20:29, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
