Joe Gatto (comedian)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – A lot of people have decided to go nuts on this article in the last few hours (one can only presume he did, or said, or tweeted something controversial -- or perhaps someone else did). At any rate, the page is being vandalized quite profusely. jp×g 07:12, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nazi symbolism

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP's constantly adding that the swastika , is misinterpreted as a hate symbol and it was the Hakenkreuz which was used, some IP's apparently think that its propaganda against Hinduism, also edits and summaries like the following aren't helping: [1] Swastika (Fake Symbol), [2] I changed this because swastika is not at all nazi symbol. People need to know this truth., [3] Swastika history needs to to be reviewed., [4] Swastika has no connection with Nazi at all., [5] Fake propaganda against my religion needs to be stopped., [6], [7] I have changed swastika to Hakenkreuz because Hitler never used word swastika in his book Mein Kampf. It is James Murphy who translated Hakenkreuz to swastika in his english translation of Mein Kampf.. Bingobro (Chat) 08:57, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked. I added Nazi symbolism to the existing /38's p-blocks. El_C 11:22, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Amanda Swimmer

Full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Slow-burning edit war on a page with not much attention. I would protect it myself, but I created it a few years back and haven't edited it since, so might be involved. Would suggest a week at full protection to let things simmer down, but posting here so someone unconnected can assess. TonyBallioni (talk) 18:05, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Let's try semi-protection first. If EC vandalism remains a problem, ask again. In the meantime, some of the problems there look like sockpuppetry; if there is a recognizable sockmaster, be sure to report the socks to get them blocked. MelanieN (talk) 20:14, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: Requesting Semi-protection due to disruptive edits and edit warring by various IPs over the past few days Shadowwarrior8 (talk) 04:47, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Shadowwarrior8, can you provide WP:DIFFs that illustrate the problem? I notice that you didn't retain minor improvements, like fixing all-uppercase titles for refs (diff). El_C 10:57, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

El_C

Yeah, I didnt notice that initially. Here I corrected it: [8]

As for the problem in the page, it is edit waring and disruptive-POV editing by various IPs in the page:

These are it: 

[9] This one is as early as 17 Dec

Next these disruptive edits are in 27 Dec [10] ; [11]

Next a series of disruptive & POV edits, edit warring, etc by multiple IPs b/w 27-31 December [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20]

Shadowwarrior8 (talk) 11:47, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is nothing disruptive about adding sourced content from peer reviewed journals. It sounds more like you don’t like the content.

And actually you have been part of the edit warring by removing peer reviewed content without explanation. 89.242.88.80 (talk) 14:52, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply] 

89.242.88.80 (talk) (talk)  Content involves WP:REPETITION and sourced content was deleted. Also see guidelines for MOS:Lead.

Shadowwarrior8 (talk) 16:26, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. This appears to be edit warring over certain wording, particularly in the lead. I see no attempt to discuss the differences at the talk page. Full protection is a possibility and would stop the warring, but I would prefer to see some use of the talk page. MelanieN (talk) 18:56, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Scientific wild-ass guess

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Not sure if we should keep this page around (see WP:NEO), but if we do, it should have some protection given the high portion of vandalism edits. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 05:44, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Sdkb, last edit was in June, so this seems rather Stale. What am I missing? El_C 11:03, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The request is based on the proportion of vandalism rather than the volume. No worries if there's not enough volume for this to be actionable, though. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 16:32, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. MelanieN (talk) 18:59, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Multiple IP address vandalism. I.hate.spam.mail.here (This is YOUR page) (talk) 06:43, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: actually, I.hate.spam.mail.here, there's only the one disruptive edit (on Jan 1, which was suppressed), the edit preceding it was in May, so this is rather Stale (multiple IPs-wise). Unfortunately, even admins can't see who did the suppression, so I'm unable to ping them here about the Jan 1 suppressed edit (whose contents I cannot access). Will probably decline, but leaving this request open for the time being. El_C 11:09, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Twoja twarz brzmi znajomo (season 15)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – IP editor 79.162.209.91 is insisting in returning this redirect to article with no effective sources. Reviewed by two independent editors. scope_creepTalk 11:58, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined. This was created months ago as an article, and only recently converted to a redirect - an undiscussed action which has been reversed several times. The page is now at AfD, which is the proper forum to decide whether it should be kept as an article, made into a redirect, or deleted. MelanieN (talk) 19:07, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The page is a vandalism magnet and volunteers are repeatedly having to watch the page and undo vandalism which has resumed since page last became unprotected. Suggest a long temporary. Djm-leighpark (talk) 20:25, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lift-to-drag ratio

Reason: I have a lame edit war with an IP. He/she does not understand WP:BRD and won't go in talk. Is it possible to restrict editing to autoconfirmed users? Thanks. Marc Lacoste (talk) 21:00, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fully protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I don't see you at the talk page either. I'm locking the article for 2 days to get you two actually talking to each other (as opposed to in edit summaries). I suggest that after posting your rationale on the talk page, you go to the IP's user talk page and politely invite them to the discussion. (Ping doesn't work for IPs.) MelanieN (talk) 22:27, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Garuda Indonesia

Temporary semi-protection: Sockpuppetry. Also persistent addition of unsourced content by new and unregistered users. The edits by IPs starting in 36, 115 and 180 are likely EWLO. This is all I will be requesting for a while, to avoid flooding RfPP. Mako001 (C)  (T) (The Alternate Mako) 04:47, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question: @The Alternate Mako: Who is evading a block? Who is currently blocked? El_C 10:28, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
At least two different masters, Jellywings19 and Sarah Carvalho. Mako001 (C)  (T) (The Alternate Mako) 10:53, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Mako001, maybe take it to WP:SPI. Or provide diffs that establish the connection, because it isn't immeidately evident to me. El_C 17:15, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@El C: Already done, both masters have SPIs, but there is a long running issue with these Indonesian aviation articles, and it's getting a bit whack-a-moley. Mako001 (C)  (T) (The Alternate Mako) 01:25, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Mako001, okay, feel free to add new entries to these SPIs, then, Or, again, provide pertinent diffs here. Because I still can't make an immediate connection between these masters and the claimed block evading account/s. El_C 10:53, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@El C: See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jellywings19/Archive. Basically, Svenurbana, Kokusaijoxo, MariaEDAS Ibavcahe87 are all Jelly's sockpuppets except maria, who is Sarah's sock. Maybe leave it for now though, we'll see if Drmies latest rangeblock aimed at them has done the trick. Mako001 (C)  (T) (The Alternate Mako) 11:57, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: This article has been G5'ed before and moved back into draft space thrice. However, I would accept Draft:Mikhail Lomtadze were the destination title not salted.

Pinging MER-C as the admin who protected this quite recently for their thoughts. Hog Farm Talk 17:09, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This is a Bodiadub article with the latest activity from this sockfarm on this subject a month ago. Bodiadub socks tried to move it into mainspace twice this year. (They continue to abuse Wikipedia regarding other subjects). I am not convinced the AFC submission is made in good faith; FinancesHero may be another sockpuppet. MER-C 17:52, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

List of coups and coup attempts

Indefinite semi protection - Some months ago I semi-protected List of coups and coup attempts by country (a related article) due to repeated re-addition of a contentious entry about characterizing the 2021 US Capitol attack as a coup, but I neglected to protect List of coups and coup attempts. Since then, I have become WP:INVOLVED in the topic so I cannot protect that article now, although it still experiences similar disruption from well-meaning unconfirmed accounts who aren't aware of the need to gain consensus first. (For the record, I personally agree with this addition, but consensus among reliable sources must be established first before the entry is added, and that hasn't happened.) User:Gorilla Warfare has participated on the talk page in an administrative capacity, but I felt it would be best to ask for protection here than from an individual fellow admin. There is no vandalism, just long-term history of adding this without talk page discussion; for a similar reason we indef-semi-protect articles like Muhammad to prevent repeated long-term good-faith-but-disruptive edits. ~Anachronist (talk) 16:17, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@El C, if you see this diff, you will find I reverted some edits made on December 13. I am assuming there is a possibility of an another attempt. But after raising this move protection request, I have also put up a merge discussion tag on the page and till now we have not seen any participation. This company has a controversial editing history. So, I am also in sitting in a wait and watch position like you. However, you are the best judge of this kind situation and I will go along with your call.

Unprotection: Redirect, fully protected because of some page move vandalism back in 2009. Doesn't seem at all necessary anymore. Lennart97 (talk) 16:25, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question: On the other hand, there is no need to move the page that I can see. Do you intend do write a new article under that name? Lectonar (talk) 10:55, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It would need to be moved if this RM is succesful, which it doesn't look like it will be. Two edit requests were recently needed just to list the redirect at RfD and then remove it, though. I realise it's not at all a big deal since it's a redirect, but in principle I don't see a way to justify having any page fully protected indefinitely because of some temporary disruption from over a decade ago.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals

Require PETA to disclose their true primary mission that they hide from the public while pretending to care about protecting animals which they do not.

Donated funds from well intended but mislead contributors is used to lobby legislative bodies to make touching a pet in ways their religious beliefs object to, a felony crime while encouraging continues use of steel leg traps so horribly painful the trapped pet or non domesticated animal literally chews off it’s own foot in an unsuccessful attempt to free itself.

When the trapper arrives and finds someone’s pet in their trap they don’t try to rescue someone’s beloved animal, they kill and hide it so it’s owner can never discover what happened to the dog or cat they love and miss so much.

PETA is an organization with an agenda they hide from the public that must be fully exposed to better inform potential donors who wrongly assume their generous donation will go to stop such horrific pain and death of innocent animals. 192.181.193.3 (talk) 13:56, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Limit inferior and limit superior

Reason: See Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Mathematics/Archive/2021/Nov#Vandalism_of_"Limit_inferior_and_limit_superior" for background information. Since at least sep 2020 this page is being periodically vandalized by an anonymous editor. On 26 Nov 2021 the page was given "pending change protection" in order to limit this vandalism. But as you can see from the revision history of the page, this has done nothing to stop him. If anything, that made him redouble his vandalism (already 6 instances of repeated vandalism, each time corrected, and no other edits since the page had that level of protection). Based on this, I'd like to request protection level to be raised to semi-protection. PatrickR2 (talk) 23:00, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Chaldea

Reason: An editor who keeps editing from different IP addresses (or multiple different editors?) is adding nationalist POV-pushing to the article on the ancient region and people of Chaldea. I've notified the editor in question at the latest IP address that made the edit (here User talk:2601:40D:8100:14E0:189A:2ABF:8ECC:176F). The editor seems to be trying to make the Chaldeans out to be among the most ancient peoples of Mesopotamia and also replaced the use of "Assyrians" with "Chaldeans".

The Chaldea article is a historical article without connection to the name dispute in the modern ethnic group — the Assyrians referenced are the people of ancient Assyria (who obviously did not identify as "Chaldeans") and the Chaldeans referenced are the ancient people, who did arrive in the region long after the ancient Assyrians and Babylonians were already established. Articles on the modern group are protected to various extents avoid cases like these (see Assyrian people, Terms for Syriac Christians, Chaldean Catholics) - could this perhaps be extended to Chaldea as well?

Support This link has been a permanent red link (i.e. salted page used in documentation as a red link) since 2007, but it's not the only one available, and evidently there are several things called "Like This". "Intentionally permanent red link" seems clearer and less likely to be the name of an encyclopedic topic. The 171 incoming links could easily be replaced with a link to a different permanent red link. User:GKFXtalk 18:27, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am reviewing the edits manually (since some people who link to it are actually talking about the page "like this" whereas others are just trying to make a red link appear). As far as I can tell, the majority of them are actually coming from this very discussion (since the section heading is included on Template:Dashboard which is transcluded to a ton of userspace pages), lol.

Semi-protected for a period of one month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Hellknowz, the only protection the page has seen has been one month pending changes.

Seems an anon removed the content without first seeking a concensus on it and also removing lost established history. I think page protection is needed as I see this might become edit warring. They also have been engaged in other city related articles and removing content.

DragonofBatley (talk) 14:34, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Looking at the history, you're clearly trying to misuse RFPP to get us to lock in your preferred wording in a content dispute with a (single) other editor. (A dispute which you've made literally no effort to discuss, FWIW.) This is not what page protection is for.

Egyptian–Ottoman War (1831–1833)

Reason: High level of IP edit warring - issue was previously raised at ANI, resulting in the editor involved receiving a block. However, a series of IP's are now trying to boldly implement their desired changes at the above page and at Egyptian–Ottoman War (1839–1841), so semi-protect would appear to be appropriate.

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I note that there has been no attempt to discuss these disputes at the talk page; you have told the IPs in edit summaries to discuss, but have not launched any discussion yourself.

Since deleted by Maile66. Maile, can I ask about your deletion rationale? What you said is correct (that it's a hoax and that the admin who protected [and recreated] it is banned), but the former is true of all of the subpages of Wikipedia:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia, and the latter is true of many of them. I remember when the banned user in question unilaterally decided to restore all of those pages, because they asked me to create {{hoax documentation}} as part of it, and I kinda expected it would all go to MfD, but instead the approach has caught on quietly over the years.
BTW, @GKFX, per {{hoax documentation}} the correct place to request an edit to an archived hoax is Wikipedia talk:List of hoaxes on Wikipedia. I'm not sure if anyone actually follows that, but it's what I decided in 2013 and no one's ever challenged it. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she/they) 14:51, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Archive/2021/11#16 November 2021. There are no useful edit requests, so this protection is not hurting anything. More importantly, it's actively stopping disruption from autoconfirmed editors, which is why I've ignored the pings from people who think I'm killjoy. I've seen no evidence yet that anyone wants to edit this page outside of adding memes, and at least one of the people posting there seems to indicate this is the case: "it gave people a reason to look at the page of some random British economist".

The Egg (Weir short story)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Seems to be an ongoing edit war in which a user (User:Chiyote) persistently adds an unsourced claim that this work was plagiarized by them (or more recently, removes the author information entirely) despite multiple editors removing it for being unsupported original research, a clear conflict of interest, and possibly a personal attack? User:Chiyote was banned, after which several anons continued the effort. Based on a recent post on their talk page ([78]) they may be brigading on Facebook and Reddit to get others to make these changes.

Not sure if semi-protection is appropriate here but at this point the page has spent more time in the last three months having incorrect info than correct info. The page is otherwise extremely low activity, so I don't think we'd lose much in terms of regular contributions by adding semiprotection. Dylnuge (Talk • Edits) 15:47, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@CreecregofLife:. No they aren't, which one could have easily found out. Lectonar (talk) 09:12, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not done; if something has been placed under arbitration enforcement, then use an edit request (using {{SPER}}) on the article's talk page to ask that a change should be made - if it's that bad, someone will definitely enact the change. Additionally, AC-status is pretty easy to obtain. Primefac (talk) 13:15, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nas Daily

Reason: The Protection should be semi since it has a history of vandalism but is not related AT ALL to ARBPIA. He was born in Israel but has no writings about the conflict or anything. It only had 1 previous protection before someone ECPed it. It says the reason was ARBPIA. Please remove it so that autoconfirmed like me and others can edit it! Jishiboka1 (talk) 00:19, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The edit reverted in Special:Diff/969913214 seems to indicate that there are Israeli-Palestinian conflict concerns. Because of that I am not overly keen to reduce the protection put in place by Ymblanter. Primefac (talk) 13:10, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
This is not an individual administrator action; articles in this area are protected by the Arbitration Committee.

Your point being? If it is obvious vandalism, warn & report the offenders to AIV. If the disruption is more complicated in nature, then it belongs at ANI. Page protection is not a blunt force weapon suitable for bludgeoning adversaries. -FASTILY 03:12, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Fastily: My point being that protection is the most appropriate remedy for dealing with disruption from multiple accounts. Are you suggesting that page protection is never appropriate? You did just decline every protection request here, including several with disruption from multiple accounts. There are clear policy violations here. I am not trying to bludgeon anyone, and I resent the accusation. I'm not the only editor trying to deal with the disruption on this page. ― Tartan357 Talk 03:18, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, it isn't. Page protection is only appropriate in situations where blocks are ineffective. There is a cost to protecting pages, as it prevents legitimate contributors from making constructive edits. You've been around awhile, and I'm concerned I should have to explain this to you. So yeah, in summary, most of the requests on this page can, and should be dealt with via blocks. But humor me. Which 3 accounts/IPs are causing you grief such that if I were to block them right now, protection would still be warranted. Also, please explain how their edits are disruptive and link the warnings you've issued. -FASTILY 03:27, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I regularly get pages protected for far less, so I think you're in a minority among admins. Which is your right, but it doesn't reflect a lack of understanding on my part or a bad-faith desire to "bludgeon" editors. I would say that since a similar type of disruption is occurring from multiple accounts that started in a short period of time on a page that doesn't get many edits, there is either socking or a post made by someone in the party on social media complaining about the page being "biased" (it wouldn't be the first time), so this is likely to continue unless a brief period of protection is used to ward people off. ― Tartan357 Talk 03:33, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh sorry, to be clear the "bludgeon" comment wasn't a bad faith accusation, just a poor attempt at humor :). But like I said, if there's 3 accounts/IPs, could you please name them? Assuming you've issued the appropriate warnings, I'll be happy to block them right now. On the other hand, if there were say, 10 concurrent accounts/IPs, I would already protected the page. -FASTILY 03:42, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Fastily: Thank you, I appreciate that retraction. I haven't adequately warned them for a block and only one IP has disrupted the page enough to warrant a block. I made a request here because other admins I've interacted with have treated protection as an alternative to blocking when there are multiple accounts engaging in low-level disruption, and it seems likely more will emerge. If that's not your interpretation of the protection policy, then I respect that. ― Tartan357 Talk 03:49, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reconquête (political party)

Temporary semi-protection: Reconquête is a brand new (5 Dec) French political party, created by far-right pundit Eric Zemmour. Currently, I am more or less single-handedly trying to keep the Verifiability lid on this Start-class article, while legions of new editors, IP and registered, many (perhaps most) of them French, come over and try to add unsupported political positions to the Infobox, or the brief #Ideology section. Most of these users are, I think, editing in good faith, with a few ideologues sprinkled in among them, but either way, they are massively ignoring WP:V. If there were another three or four experienced editors watching over it who would intervene as well, I'd say it wouldn't need protection, yet. But for the moment, for whatever reason no one else is helping out (maybe because this is a Start-class article with no listed watchers, even though I'm watching it, so it should be > 0). I'm devoting way too much time on it, so I'm faced with a choice, now: abandon all the many other things on my plate and sign up as full-time babysitter at this article, stopping the same edits over and over; or keep on improving the encyclopedia in many different areas. Nobody has responded at the Talk page, though I've left messages in English and French (possibly a WP:THEYCANTHEARYOU problem?) and also lengthy edit summaries in some cases, trying to explain how things work at en-wiki. I can't keep this up, something has got to give; can we try a couple weeks of semi-protection, and see if that takes the pressure off? Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 01:53, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Persistent mass removal of sourced material by anonymous IP editors. While there's also been an issue with some logged-in users making disruptive edits, these are fewer and further between than the new or IP users we've been having to revert on a regular basis for quite some time. Semi-protection might even be more appropriate, but I think it would help a lot of there was at least some level of protection given that this seems to be a rather controversial BLP page and we can't go more than a few days without someone trying to purge sections of it.  Vanilla  Wizard 💙 15:37, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Name of page you are requesting an edit to

Can we add the line " Andrew Garfield is the werewolf." It basically means that he played spiderman in no way home and will be a fun inside joke for all his fans. Context: when asked in an interview if he is playing spiderman in no way home Andrew compared playing spiderman to being the werewolf and proceeded to say multiple times that he is not the werewolf. But as we know he was a part of no way home and is indeed the werewolf. I just think it's a fun and harmless way to jazz up the page. Thank you!

Joseph Mercola

Reason: The page is so biased, and the criticism is based on many false "factcheckers'" reports. Mercola has been right and now even Dr. Werlinsky has changed her tune, admitting that the vaccines do not prevent transmission nor prevent you from getting Covid. Now we just need them to admit that there are actually many deaths and injuries caused by it, something that Mercola has been telling people for quite awhile. VAERS is only reporting a small percentage of deaths and injuries, because doctors don't want to take 30 minutes to fill out the forms. We need an unbiased Wikipedia, that tells the whole story! I will not donate to you until you do so.

@Jishiboka1: Your previous requests are at 13 January 2022 and 19 January 2022. You must stop asking for unprotection because such repetition wastes time. As I wrote last time, the article for an "Israeli-born Arab vlogger" is subject to WP:ARBPIA and it will not be unprotected. If you want to appeal that decision, you could ask at WP:ARCA.

Original North American area codes

Reason: User:kbrose repeatedly violates WP:OR and/or WP:SYNTH, while asserting special privileges on the basis that he "wrote the entire article".

He is effetively claiming that he shouldn't be expected to comply with the normal rules, stating

My edits to the article are not bold and not controversial based on the ample references. I cannot vandalize it, because I wrote the entire article, and it is factual and well sourced. That is not ownership. I am open to improvements by others when relevant references support changes. I suggest you show some proof for your lies and accusations. They are just smoke and mirrors. If you think your senseless deletions without reason and explanation are an improvement then explain it. I will continue to defend the article as written against all misinformation and vandalism, and I will likely expand it further with new source material.

His assertions are without merit. The essential aspect of this is that he supports his own claims on the basis that no reliable sources are available that disprove his claim.

This is an editor who has made up his mind and is not listening to anybody else. When objectios are made, he just repeats his false claim that his claims are actually sourced. It is no wonder that his content is repeatedly deleted, and there does not seem to be any reasoning with him. The original semi-protection should therefore be reversed. Fabrickator (talk) 23:13, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined The article is semi-protected to prevent the IP from continuing their edit war. A quick look at article history shows the IP removing text they don't like over months, with incorrect accusations of vandalism (see WP:VAND). The protection resulted from the report at WP:AN3. The above is not a suitable request for a change in protection. Johnuniq (talk) 01:44, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Mark Ronson's article has been vandalized by IPs who insist on putting the term "singer" in the opening sentences and the infobox despite this, keeps repeatedly changing the occupations I intervened in and corrected from this IP (this one for example). And it shows when I add the artist's dual nationality when they edited, because that's what it says in an edition summary saying that rv unsourced changes and apparently it continues to mess between the short description, opening sentences and the infobox itself. 152.0.138.36 (talk) 04:00, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Let me explain. Normally we don’t protect talk pages for more than a few days, but IMO this is a time for WP:IAR. As far as I can tell from the archive, there hasn’t been a constructive edit to the talk page since last February. There was occasional nonsense throughout 2021, but nothing that couldn’t be handled by normal page watching. But since November it’s been non-stop nonsense, multiple times a day every day - interrupted by two intervals of semi-protection, but immediately resuming when it expired. To put a stop to this waste of editor time I am semi-protecting this page for three months. If anyone feels this is excessive, please let's discuss it on my talk page.  MelanieN (talk) 23:41, 22 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: There has recently been a large amount of edits from different IP:s (presumably the same person) trying to blame all of this emperor's failures on his mother's influence (for example 1, 2) without the addition of any reliable sources to support this; IMO this appears to fall into medieval sexist tropes that are no longer held in the same regard by modern historians.

Wikipedia as a whole lies when it claims to be open source if pages are protected, particulary controversial pages. Wikipedia is a sham orignazation that promotes leftist propagana and in no way promotes free speech. David19672 (talk) 19:42, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@EvergreenFir: Forgive me, but I object to this. WP:CENT is a community resource; we can't limit its use to Template Editors without global consensus to do so, notwithstanding that it's a "highly visible" template (btw, WP:TPROT is "high risk" not "high visibility"). I see no edit warring, abuse, or any other problem that needs to be solved with protection. Please see also the template's protection log history and reconsider this. Thanks, Levivich 17:45, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This is a controversial case.

  • information Administrator note: I disagree with the closing of the linked discussion. There are people opposing even reducing to semi, so I cannot see why a protection level beneath that has been determined as having gained consensus. I'll reiterate what I said here in November, which is that I'm willing to let semi play out, but PC on a BLP that has been prone to vandalism for over half a decade (regardless of how tame the changes are) is beyond what I'm comfortable with.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Any way we could increase the pending changes on this article to semi-protection? The same person, using dynamic IPs, has been vandalizing the article with the same edits (inserting false information) goin back to at least September 2020 (except for the periods in which this article was semi-protected) Enabling pending changes has not prevented this person from making their edits. If I am reading the article history correctly, the last time an anonymous user made a constructive edit to the article was way back in February 2021, and that anonymous editor was reverting the edits of the same vandal I mentioned earlier, so I don't think semi-protection will do much harm.

  • Commnent NoonIcarus, a Wikipedia editor operating from the country of Venezuela, is editing all pages related to the American publication El American, which is libertarian-conservative, attempting to discredit all links to it and all people related to it. He has been doing this systematically in the Spanish version of Wikipedia. Moreover, the article in question had already been subjected to similar censorship attempts in the past two months for links to American Thinker.

Reason: The page seems to be the target of extreme-right wing activists that regularly add content that talks about the "loss of state authority" in France and other vague claims while adding links a politcal website called "La France Libre" (The free France). It is not only irrelevant information but clearly biased. There's a surge of intolerance in France and I think that kind of vandalism is going to get more frequent as the french presidential elections approches.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Continuous disruptive editing and vandalism from IP editors. ––FormalDude talk 18:13, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined @FormalDude: Sorry but it's hard to see why the edits are vandalism. I'm declining because indefinite protection is very rare and is not going to happen given the article has never been protected. The IPs conceivably could have a COI problem but their point is valid, namely that the short article has a large emphasis on "registered sex offender". I'm not saying I agree with the IPs, just that their edits do not justify semi-protection. You could ask for full protection due to an edit war. If another admin sees this and wants to protect, that's fine by me, but having this tricky case first in the RFPP list slows down dealing with the rest.

Ideological bias on Wikipedia

Reason: High level of persistent IP and brand-new editor vandalism and POV pushing: [114] [115] [116] [117] [118] [119] [120]. Requesting indefinite ECP. This page is likely to be a high profile target for vandalism indefinitely, or at least as long as Wikipedia exists. So please save us some editor time and effort and protect it!

Reason: The page description says "Restoring previous indefinite semi-protection, which was superseded by temporary extended-confirmed protection" but the page is extend-protected, reduce it to fit the description 113.185.42.202 (talk) 11:48, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – What you're quoting is the penultimate entry in the article's protection log. The most recent and currently active entry states "Persistent sock puppetry: persistent blanking sprees from autoconfirmed socks" and raises the protection to "extended confirmed". The sock master is still active, so the protection stands. Favonian (talk) 11:57, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: A newly registered WP:SPA, WP:NATIONALIST and WP:NOTHERE is vandalizing the article despite my warnings.

Talk:SCP_Foundation

Reason: This talk page has been flooded with various roleplaying, forum usage, and other non-talk page appropriate things for a while. Currently, by my count, of the 12 sections, 7(!) of them are inappropriate for the page, 6 of which were made by IPs. The archive is also full of these inappropriate usages of the page. I know Talk Pages aren't normally semi-protected, but I think it would improve the workflow of improving the encyclopedia to get the IPs off. (There should also, if it is protected, be a banner directing IPs to WP:RFED, so if they have legitimate edit proposals they can be heard.) casualdejekyll 19:53, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2022 NASCAR Xfinity Series

Reason: The semi-protection for the article that was requested last week ended today, and the anonymous/IP editors are already back and causing vandalism again by adding teams, drivers and car numbers that have yet to be announced for the 2022 season. If semi-protection is added back, I think a good day to end it is February 19th, which is the day of the first race of the season and all pre-season rumors/speculation will have ended by then.

@Casualdejekyll: Since the introduction of EC, most of the time it's easier to just EC salt because the vandal won't bother getting to the 500/30 requirement.

Note: I'm afraid that whatever you are saying, it is not a reason to protect this page. If you have concerns with some other page, you should discuss those concerns on the talk page and in any relevant discussion. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 16:53, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2022 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series

Reason: We've had vandalism nearly every day for over a week now on the article in the "teams and drivers" section, with people adding teams, drivers and truck numbers that haven't been announced for the 2022 season. I propose that this article (like the 2022 NASCAR Cup Series article) be semi-protected. I think a good day to end the semi-protection is February 18th, which is the day of the first race of the season and all pre-season rumors/speculation will have ended by then. Thank you!
