Full protection for a while. Persistent reinsertion by single editor of material subject to an ongoing, unresolved WP:BRD dispute, whose additions/reverts raise WP:POV and WP:OR / WP:SYNTH concerns (demonstrated unequivocally on talk page, with multiple reliable sources). Editor is refusing to participate meaningfully in the "D" of BRD, and just ignores repeated requests for evidence to support their claims of article inaccuracies. Editor complains on talk page of being swamped in multiple "shitstorms" (their term, not mine) across WP, so this will be an opportunity to take a breather and reflect upon involvement in fecal tempests. Also editwarring against WP:CITEVAR. I have made many adjustments to the text to try to appease said editor's concerns (usually announced with WP:DRIVEBY tagging of material that is already well-sourced). Informal dispute resolution has repeatedly failed, and my request for formal WP:DR was explicitly rejected. Nothing helps, so far. This has been going on every day for a week or so, more slowly now, after I issued a WP:3RR warning. The underlying disputes go back over two months. I was finally, very reluctantly going to take this to WP:ANEW or WP:ANI (I thus have a pile of diffs if they're needed), but since neither of us are admins, perhaps page protection can handle this with far less drama. I'm perfectly happy using Editprotected requests to add new sources, etc., and it will require consensus discussions to make any controversial changes henceforth, ergo a big reduction in strife and an increase in article stability. (Protection request is, probably obviously, just for article, not its talk page.)  — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  15:07, 30 September 2014 (UTC) Cf. another page recently protected after ANEW report against same editor (and protected by same admin who has kind of been trying to moderate our dispute at Talk:Landrace). — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  15:15, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting oppose.svg Declined, you can write huge requests like this and cite all these acronyms (just FYI, it's a fair bet that most admins have read them, so the links aren't really necessary), but at the end of the day it takes two to tango. Instead of enflaming the situation, you could just stop reverting. If you're right, other people will support you. HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?  20:50, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection Someone keeps editing this template, changing it to include individuals who have never been apart of the Adventure Time crew (such as Ben Bocquelet), adding one-off or guest-voiced characters, as well as disrupting the alphabetical order of the individuals listed. This disruptive editing has been going on for some time now, since at least September 11, and I've been trying to dissuade/revert any bad changes I can catch, but the disruptive (or at best, misguided) editing is getting old really fast. The IP responsible seems to be dabbling in information deletion from other articles as well.--<font face="Arial Black"><font color="#B22222">Gen.

Pending changes protection: I have sort of monitored this article off and on for the last year, and during this time, this article has been semi-protected as least once. The primary issue regarding my request for protection is that this article seems to have IP editors who frequently attempt to add links to "Fantasy" or "High fantasy" to the lead of the article. Each time, the IP editor(s) are reverted per WP:BRD, but then never start a discussion. For this reason, since short-term semi-protection seems to not be working, I wonder if longer-term pending changes protection will? Steel1943 (talk) 18:05, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Over the past four years, multiple IP editors and single-purpose accounts have edited or overwritten the page, according to their edit summaries at the request of Pamuk himself.

I have not tried to contact any of these editors since they do not seem to stick around for any length of time and have not left email addresses on file, but the changes have been very disruptive—obliterating the work of other editors as well as categories, maintenance templates, and wikilinks even when text they kept adding already formed the majority of the article. —Neil P.

Temporary move protection: At 01:09, 2 October, a discussion was initiated about moving this article to "2014 Iranian intervention in Iraq" (dropping the word "led"). The discussion registered 1 note of support, 1 note of opposition, and 1 suggestion move discussion be tabled until a parallel RfC that effected it was worked through. The editor initiating this discussion declared that "bias toward Syria and Hezbollah" was evident, expressed a very passionate opinion that a move must happen immediately ("Iran leads no one.") and then, at  17:57, 2 October 2014‎, effected the move anyway. This article is currently under active community sanctions and a parallel article (2014 American-led intervention in Iraq) has suffered an endless sequence of charges and counter-charges of edit-warring. In order to avoid a probable flurry of 1RR reports, blocks of otherwise good editors, and repeated move/un-moves that will likely happen, I would like to request this very lowest level of protection - 1-week of move protection only; just long enough to allow the nascent discussion on the move to develop. DocumentError (talk) 20:31, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The requesting editor here is the initiator of the numerous Admin actions on related articles and the many editors he disagrees with. He initiated the "endless sequence of charges and counter-charges of edit-warring" on the parallel article (2014 American-led intervention in Iraq) including a still active AfD. After reverting a single article name move he has rushed here to get it locked into his preferred POV title. Legacypac (talk) 21:09, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi, LegacyPAC ... I'm afraid I don't know what the other issues you're referencing are about. I'm just asking for 1 week move protection while consensus is being built in the discussion you initiated: . Why do you object - were you planning on moving the article again prior to a consensus? You raised some great points in the discussion you initiated and, I think that, though you don't have a move consensus yet, if you give it a few days, you might develop one. In general, we don't usually move articles 15 hours after opening a discussion on the topic and after only 2 other editors have commented, both to object. Thanks for your great contributions to these articles! DocumentError (talk) 21:37, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

I would like to request edits to the page [Andrew Peach] which is locked and out of date. Here's up-to-date info from the Radio Academy website:

Andrew Peach presents a news and phone-in show from 7-10am on BBC Radio Berkshire and network programmes such as Newshour on the BBC World Service and PM on Radio 4. Since 1998, he has also read the news on Radio 2.

Andrew grew up in Bloxwich in the West Midlands, went to the local grammar school and was the first member of his family to go to university. In 1989, he won a competition to spend a few days in Cologne compiling radio reports about life in Germany. He loved it so much that while reading Modern History at St Edmund Hall, Oxford, he started getting up early to present travel bulletins and has had a BBC show since the age of 19.

Notable broadcasts have included covering US Elections in Washington DC, Pope John Paul II’s beatification mass at the Vatican and the Royal Wedding. In January 2014, his interview in which a UKIP Councillor blamed recent flooding on gay marriage made news around the world.

Andrew has been nominated for 13 Sony Radio Academy Awards over the years including Speech Radio Broadcaster of the Year. The judges described him as "an assured host, balancing great seriousness and warmth and displaying a strong bond with his audience” and said “he is empathetic and probing and formulates questions that are short, to the point and perfectly timed.”

Andrew lives with his wife and two young children in Henley on Thames, Oxfordshire. He loves walking in the countryside, playing the piano and travelling in the United States and Australia. He is patron of two charities: Thames Hospice in Windsor and Sportsable in Maidenhead. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tinkltunkl (talk • contribs) 09:05, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Oppose: User is currently engaged in sockpuppetry by using multiple accounts special:contributions/NoGoodOnesLeft and special:contributions/NotWillyWonka simultaneously, mostly to edit-war articles NRJ (Canada), Collège de Jonquière/Cégep de Jonquière. They had attempted to hide a long series of warnings left from other users at User talk:Notwillywanka about "willy", "wank" and our username policy by blanking their user talk page, moving it (with the warnings in the page history) to User talk:Notwillywanka/delete (which was no accident) then edit-warring a speedy template onto the page repeatedly under various invalid criteria (such as db-author). Both accounts are being used at Talk:Area code 664 in an attempt to gain leverage in a discussion of whether México +52 664 should be a separate article topic from Montserrat +1 664. This is sitting carefully below WP:3RR but locking the "user talk:" page to prevent restoration of the archive template also prevents justifiable warnings being left for this user. WP:REPENTANT does not apply as the abuse is ongoing. "The past", as this user calls it, is a current and ongoing pattern of abuse; there was already one block for the username issue, but do we really need this user under two accounts with a talk page locked against anyone leaving valid warnings?

Temporary semi-protection: Edit-warring, content dispute and apparent sockpuppetry – I requested protection of this page 2 days ago because, despite long discussions on the talk page, there is an ongoing edit war in the article. The request was denied because there was ongoing discussion. However, this has not stopped the edit war. Two IPs have now joined the war and, based on their location, appear that they may be one of the involved editors editing while logged out. I have no proof of this, it's just a gut feeling and my gut has been pretty reliable in the past when it comes to vandalism and sockpuppetry. The contributions of the IPs are not constructive. They are just blanket reversions with some abusive edit summaries and posting on talk pages. At this point the article is suffering by being unprotected.

Semi-protection: High level of vandalism using unverified or false data, the information is entered directly to the page without adding correct references or discussing changes on the talk page beforehand. The topic is constantly changing, and some form of protection needs to keep unverified and IP users from making changes and adding incorrect data. As a page which has been viewed over 650,000 times in the past 30 days alone, I think it needs to have some form of protection to stop vandalism. AmericanXplorer13 (talk) 22:06, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes Given the front page link and ever-increasing news updates, this article is very highly-trafficed, but also edited regularly by (generally helpful) IP addresses. It was recently semi-protected, and the talk page already has 3 requests after maybe 12 hours. IMO, the use is too high and most edits legitimate enough to warrant the use of pending changes on this article, which would allow IPs to edit and make it far simpler for editors to approve or deny those changes. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  17:36, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello. A page related to politics in India is page protected. Three administrators connected to the issue have all endorsed the protection being removed, but have asked that I find anyone other than them remove it. I am writing to request that any admin verify that I have leave to request that page protection be removed and to perform the technical operation of removing the page protection without further being involved.

"Jashodaben Chimanlal" is the spouse of the Prime Minister of India and it is taboo to discuss her in media. This is the page from which I would like page protection removed. Other administrators with connection to this page are as follows:
 * admin, who closed an AfD deleting this page in June and who now does not want involvement
 * admin, who insisted that based on that AfD that I cannot recreate the page until going through WP:DELREV, and who protected the page so that I not recreate the article. After the results of deletion review Nick told me to find any admin other than him to remove page protection.
 * admin, who closed the deletion review in complete agreement with me in every way except that this user did not want to be the admin to remove page protection.

I have an entirely new draft of this article, previously deleted three times. I made arguments that this content meets Wikipedia inclusion criteria. I would like for page protection to be removed so that my proposed article can go to AfD rather than be an untested draft. I know that the last article went just a few months ago, but the election just ended a few weeks before the last deletion and I found more information since then. Under what circumstance could I have page protection removed?  Blue Rasberry  (talk)  11:02, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Full protection: there is a BLP dispute going on for the section The_Federalist_(website), which I removed under BLP and is being edit warred back in despite warnings on discretionary sanctions. An administrator, had reversed a revert of the deletion and on the Talk page, had said the materials should stay out while discussion was ongoing, but has been out of pocket. Others have continued to restore the material (and others have continued to remove it) in the meantime. It is currently in the article. Please remove the section and protect the page. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 14:03, 13 October 2014 (UTC) (striking request, apparently this is wrong forum. My apologies. Jytdog (talk) 20:46, 13 October 2014 (UTC))
 * the edit warring on this is continuing. it was just deleted and then restored yet again.Jytdog (talk) 18:22, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - This is another attempt to use WP procedure to win a content dispute by several editors who have alleged a BLP violation but are unable to specify what the alleged BLP violation actually is. There is an active and engaged talk page discussion at BLP/N regarding the content.  So far the proposing editor has been unwilling or unable to state a specific BLP violation, and nor has any other pro-deletion editor.  The pro-deletionists apparently will accept no compromise short or complete deletion of all content they do not like.  Administrator Gamaliel, whose content and admin work I respect greatly, is an involved pro-deletion editor, but has no more authority to make a pronouncement regarding the unspecified BLP violation than any other editor.  This is a content dispute, and there is no reason not to let it play itself out on the talk page.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 19:49, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Briefest of replies - reason has been stated several times. WP:IDHT is not a valid strategy for resolving disputes in WP. Principle in BLP that contested content stays out until discussion is finished is clear, and there is a low tolerance for edit-warring on BLP-related matters. Hence, request for PP. Jytdog (talk) 19:54, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment Please do not just remove the section and lock. WP:BLP is being invoked just to win a content dispute.  Consensus should be reached to remove before the status-quo section gets removed, when the section is properly sourced to WP:RS and is not a violation of WP:BLP.  Here is what the administrator User:Sphilbrick said about a similar claimed WP:BLP related removal of similar content: "I think it is disruptive, you ought to self-revert and apologize. There are good faith debates on the value of some proposed references, there is a good faith debate on the weight this incident deserves, but to make a removal on BLP grounds evinces astoundingly bad judgement." until consensus is found for inclusion.  If you must lock the page, I request that you read the WP:BLPN and decide if the WP:BLP allegations have any validity at all or are just Gaming the system. --Obsidi (talk ) 20:25, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * it is bad form to quote someone (esp an admin) and not provide a dif. please provide one. neither you nor dirtlawyer seem to understand that a) BLP applies to a discussion of a living person anywhere in WP; and 2) the principle that once material is deleted under BLP it is the burden of those who want to restore it, to prove it is OK under BLP. Finally, clear reasons under BLP have been stated (here for example). Repeating something  over and over (no justification has been provided) doesn't make it true and IDHT is not a way to meet your burden to establish consensus to keep the content. Jytdog (talk) 20:36, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I linked to the archived discussion in which the statement occurred, here is a diff in which it was actually added: . "BLP applies to a discussion of a living person anywhere in WP" in fact I said so explicitly .  Please review the page WP:BLPN.  We have done everything we can to show that the WP:BLP claim is not said (or nor a valid claim of WP:BLP).--Obsidi (talk ) 20:51, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * thanks for providing the dif. wading through a section is no one's cup of tea. that is interesting! i guess my response to that, is that the conversation moved well beyond that, and consensus at the NDGT article is that the content about the blogosphere "scandal" is being kept out of the article until discussion there is complete, consistent with BLP which says that those who want to restore contested matter have the burden of proving it complies with BLP. (with BLP in particular) Jytdog (talk) 21:12, 13 October 2014 (UTC)


 * tagging, remmoval of tagging, deletion and restoring of the passage is ongoing. Please protect the page under BLP. Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 20:25, 13 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Yes, Jytdog, and most of the ongoing tagging and deletion of the passage is occurring at the behest of pro-deletion editors who have repeatedly failed to state a specific BLP violation despite that being the basis of your complaint -- despite repeated good faith requests for you to do so. Pro-deletion editors are attempting game policy and procedure to win a content dispute in which the pro-deletionists are unable to articulate a valid complaint.  I have never seen anything quite like this; I was an involved editor until the manipulation attracted my attention.  Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 20:33, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
 * i have here. so have others. your refusal to acknowledge that, is approaching disruptive behavior - again not good ground to be on, on a BLP matter where discretionary sanctions apply. I am really surprised that folks are being so self-destructive. Jytdog (talk) 20:41, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes Given the front page link and ever-increasing news updates, this article is very highly-trafficed, but also edited regularly by (generally helpful) IP addresses. It was recently semi-protected, and the talk page already has 3 requests after maybe 12 hours. IMO, the use is too high and most edits legitimate enough to warrant the use of pending changes on this article, which would allow IPs to edit and make it far simpler for editors to approve or deny those changes. -  Floydian  <sup style="color:#3AAA3A;">τ <sub style="color:#3AAA3A;">¢  1:36 pm, Yesterday (UTC−4)

Reduce to semi. Template is protected because things have been changing quickly recently, and evidently the frequent updates bothered someone. (Though I don't know why -- isn't that the point of a wiki?) Protecting admin refuses to update template because things might change in the future. This is the first time I've even heard that we shouldn't update things when they're changing *because* they're changing. (Again, isn't that the point of a wiki?) There are enough people watching this template that semi should not be a problem.

There are 8 editors on the talk page requesting that the template be updated to reflect legalization in Idaho as of this morning (with licenses issued). Admin refused w the excuse "How can we be sure that it won't change again?" (If it changes again, of course, we change the template again.)

Previous request for reduction in protection level: here (granted Oct. 17)

Additional Background Information: Requests_for_comment/Redrose64


 * Requesting protection increase to indefinite protection as this has been mark by administrators as a Highly visible templates and based on the edit history, editors have a problem with obtaining consensus to make an edit before doing it and insist on adding information that violates WP:CRYSTAL.  There is no reason an edit can't obtain consensus and an TER can't be submitted to be carried out in less than 24 hours (TERs where always carried out or had discussion from a TE willing to possibly make the edit in less than 24 hours when I was a TE). — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (e • t • c) 11:07, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if any of the edits to the template violated WP:CRYSTAL. However, when the page was protected- the admin refused to update the template based on speculation and that's where the WP:CRYSTAL violation occurred.. If admins would update the template as soon as there is consensus with an edit request, it wouldn't be as big of a problem to have the page protected. Prcc27 (talk) 11:40, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * "the admin" like there is only one. There are  administrators and  s that would be able to make edits (0 total), and that one administrator you're complaining about (% of editors) has clearly stated they don't object to others making changes based on edit requests, so that point is extremely weak and mute in my opinion. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (e • t • c) 12:18, 17 October 2014 (UTC)


 * I oppose this, and editors were not violating WP:CRYSTAL. To really understand this disupte requires a firm understanding of the current state of same-sex marriage law in the U.S., as well as the way the U.S. court system works. The background can be found at Requests_for_comment/Redrose64. Tinmanic (talk) 14:20, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I oppose this as well. Because of its subject matter, this template needs to be updated frequently and quickly. If an individual editor violates Wikipedia policy by engaging in edit warring on this template, that editor can be dealt with individually without locking down this template to all other good-faith editors who follow Wikipedia policy and just want to keep this template accurate and up-to-date so that readers do not receive inaccurate information when viewing this template. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:34, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I oppose this. There is no need for any protection beyond Autoconfirmed editors for this template.  This is a subject area that can have developments daily.  Only allowing edits once a week leaves the template inaccurate and causes it to not match the articles that it appears beside - which is disorienting.  Difbobatl (talk) 21:43, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I also oppose protection being increased because there were no WP:CRYSTAL violations that occurred on the template. Also, the template needs to be up to date and accurate. The level of protection is fine as is. Prcc27 (talk) 21:57, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * There have been a lot of WP:CRYSTAL violations on the template which is of a very highly charged topic for many (hence to opposes to a protection level that would make them have to discuss edits and request an edit that would be carried out in a matter of hours because that takes too long). Also due to the fact that templates on such topics are of especially high risk to vandals, and the multiple back in forth edits clog up the job queue (which apparently has caused server issues in the past, I read someplace), discussion needs to be forced before edits happen to this template. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (e • t • c) 23:13, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
 * An admin locking down the template and refusing to update it because "How can we be sure that it won't change again" (at some indefinite point in the future) is every bit as much of a WP:CRYSTAL violation as someone getting overly excited and prematurely updating the template. It is far better to leave it unprotected so that any error can be quickly corrected, than locking it down so the mistake persists far longer than it should have. Rreagan007 (talk) 01:58, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * protection is not "locked down". It simply means that changes to the template must be discussed and consensus reached.  If people are making changes without taking this extra step to make sure that consensus is reached (keeping in mind that local consensus does not outweigh global consensus), then the protection level of the template most certainly should be raised.  There has today been a lot of vandalism to the template as well today due to people insisting that claiming that things that aren't quiet legally recognized yet belong on a template that claims (falsely) that those things are legally recognized.  This vandalism has me tempted to request full protection until a 30+ day RFC can be completed to decide if this invalid claim which causes a situation of WP:FUTURE in the template should be excluded from the policy all other pages are subject to.  I am refraining from doing this at this time, but indef  protection does need to happen.  Waiting a couple hours for one of nearly 1500 editors to carry out an edit request isn't a matter of life or death. — &#123;&#123;U&#124;Technical 13&#125;&#125; (e • t • c) 02:16, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I know what it means. And the general consensus on this template is that the template should be updated as soon as the laws change. If the law has clearly been changed, then it does not require further discussion to gain consensus to change the template. The only time some discussion may be necessary is if there is some uncertainty as to exactly when that has happened. If there is some ambiguity, then there can be a revert and discussion about it, but if everyone is satisfied that the law has indeed changed, then there is no need for unnecessary delay and pointless discussion to gain consensus that already exists. Rreagan007 (talk) 04:16, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I concur with . could you give an example of a WP:CRYSTAL violation that occurred on the template..? Most of the problematic edits were by uninformed editors acting in good faith. Also, you shouldn't have been making your edits to the template when there wasn't consensus for it (I'm referring to the "not yet in effect" edits and removing Luxembourg). How can you be requesting for protection so then edits can only be made when there's clear consensus when you're editing without clear consensus yourself..? Prcc27 (talk) 02:40, 18 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Oppose and support censure of admin in question. The admin in question is grossly irresponsible (and their sole supporter Technical 13 is misguided). The admin invoked WP:CRYSTAL in their refusal to implement revisions that were factual and had overwhelming consensus. The laws are deeply in flux at the moment, and they will change. Wikipedia needs to be up to date on the issues. Thegreyanomaly (talk) 02:34, 18 October 2014 (UTC)
 * If a law has been changed, and this can be proven via court order and news articles, then there is no reason to wait for someone else to edit it. In fact, the very nature of the template's visibility is precisely why it should only be given semi protection. If a court says "State A must permit same sex marriages", for another user to say "Let's wait a few days to see if the order is stayed" violates WP:CRYSTAL because in those few days that Technical 13 thinks it's worth us waiting, people are actually getting married, and the template is giving false information. Sure, maybe in a few days, the ruling does get stayed, but it's only at THAT moment that we should change the template again to remove the state. With all of that said, I strongly oppose. Swifty819 (talk) 06:07, 18 October 2014 (UTC)


 * Pictogram voting oppose.svg Declined other than the last semi-protection done by me, which was a error on my part I should have used a different summary, not once in the protection log does it indicate that the template was protected because it was a high risk template. It was protected because of edit wars, vandalism and unsourced content. As it appears that you are in an edit war on the template I would suggest that you take a step back and confine yourself to the talk page.  there is no way that the admin in question is going to be censured. There was an RfC on the matter which was withdrawn by the filing party. Attempts to revive the dead equine by hitting it with a whip is a complete waste of time.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IPs continue to add unsourced future content, remove sourced content, perpetuate hoaxes, etc etc. Improper addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content from multiple IPs. Unsourced future event. Another unsourced future event. IPs often add content then tack on a reference from another series, even though the reference doesn't mention the show they are trying to add. These "List of programs broadcast by XYZ" articles are extraordinarily difficult to maintain anyway, because dates change constantly without sourcing, series get moved from current to former, etc. It's difficult to add numerous diffs, I think the best argument for why the article should be protected from IPs and non-autoconfirmed users comes from evaluating the article's edit history and the number of disruptive edits.

 * Dear Administrators: I recently noticed that this user is, for the upteenth time, pushing his pet opinion pieces on Argentina-related articles. I don't edit much anymore, but I do like to keep an eye on some of these articles as they make easy targets for those who think they can troll them without too many people noticing (they are fairly obscure subjects to most people). Semi-protection is not something I object to at all; but I won't ignore Mr. Rayner's REPEATED attempts to push POV and blatant op-eds from The Economist or obscure sources like "Seeking Alpha" (many with glaring factual errors, and ALL heavily biased). He's been doing this with these high-handed blanket reversals typically - even to unrelated grammatical and other minor edits, and often deleting mention of actual events and replacing them with sheer opinion (for example, here and here). If this -or similar- articles need protection, that's the kind of thing they should be protected from.  Thanks. Sherlock4000 (talk) 03:34, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Template protection: I'm pretty sure this qualifies as a high-risk template, given that a) it's used by Arbcom decisions for a specific purpose (which require it to not be edited without Arbcom's permission); b) it ties into hooks in the Wikipedia interface; c) it's a substituted user warning template. Also, there shouldn't be much need to edit it legitimately (and changes to it are rare in practice), based on the above points.

 * That should work. At it stands I'm literally on the verge of de-watching this page. Having edits reviewed should again, work some. KirtZJ (talk) 01:40, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * That won't really help as pending changes level 2 can't be used.

I'll ask User:Ged UK if they are OK with upping the protection. CBWeather, Talk, Seal meat for supper? 04:19, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * Pending changes was added before, and then removed because it didn't prevent the AFD abuse. I think we've seen enough false AFD's. I don't even know if Full Protection would stop an AFD filing. SephyTheThird (talk) 09:39, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

 * As much as the page needs improving in general, full protection is really the only way to go. No one will work on the page while it's vandalised and it should be pretty clear to anyone that the vandalisation isn't going to simply stop. We aren't dealing with a casual vandal, we are dealing with someone who is quite happy to make what must be 30 sock puppets just for this one page alone, is very aware of what counter measures we have and how to avoid them and is intent on portraying multiple falsehoods (along with made up sources!) and AFD's about this topic. Nothing short of full protection will achieve anything. Of course this will stop people from improving the page but thats a secondary concern compared to the vandalism, and if anyone wants to make a substantial improvement to the article, I'm sure they can approach an admin to make the changes once they have a sandbox. SephyTheThird (talk) 09:35, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The problem with PC was that AfDs were getting accepted by reviewers who weren't paying proper attention. I don't know whether it's possible to put notices up in the reviewing section to highlight this. If not, then perhaps full protection is the only answer, but then I kinda think the vandals have won, or at least think they have. Ged  UK  11:59, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Not sure if this is too soon or an over-reaction, but two incidences of vandalism by same user in last hour, one to talk page one to main page.

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – This article has seen a significant number of edits over the past few months that violate BLP, typically by making insinuations about the physique of the subject.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Request page protection due to ongoing:
 * Sockpuppetry: This same person has so far used 2 different IP addresses in a 24-hour period (83.11.188.237 and 83.20.9.219) to remove the exact same content simply because it doesn't conform with their POV, and using different IPs to appear as different people and fabricate a false consensus.
 * POV: for the past year there were periodic deletions of content/city-name changes to push certain political views (eg removal of references to the city's historical name "Saigon", used during the South Vietnam era, and changed to the name "Ho Chi Minh City" used ever since imposition by the communists after the VN War, and many others similar like that)
 * Spammy advertising: sites like saigontourist.net, saigon-tourist.com frequently adding links to their site under "External links", and fabricating new citation references using their websites as references. Also occurring for the past 1 year. Nguyễn Quốc Việt (talk) 05:42, 29 October 2014 (UTC)

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – In the past three days, this page has been vandalized three times with the "actually its about ethics in gaming journalism meme" (the most recent of which was mistakenly reverted as a good faith edit). Additionally, there's been some low level edit warring about the description to the link of the GamerGate controversy article.
