Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – IP hopper insists on putting in unsourced claim that some scientists accept his psuedoscience conclusion. I edit the article, so I'm WP:involved. This is a long term problem on an article that is otherwise very stable, so the risk of collateral damage is quite low. I would recommend long term semi as this isn't a short term problem. Dennis Brown - 2&cent; 14:13, 30 January 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Literately every single edit since September of 2017, has been either vandalism or reverting vandalism.

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – User:Petrov2017 has been POV-pushing on this article while refusing to discuss the issue with a number of editors. He is now using an IP address to appear to be a different editor (with the exact same edits and edit summaries). He also is using deceptive edit summaries to hide the POV edits.  freshacconci  (✉) 16:57, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
