Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – A user and an IP (I'm assuming the same user while logged out) has been repeatedly removing the racing infobox and other info from the racing section, with no attempts at discussion made. Additionally, the user in question appears to be a public relations worker for Muniz, and has been repeatedly adding copyviolated images in the infobox. Any attempts to talk haven't been going too well, either.  Zappa  24  Mati   03:07, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

 * Not really a high level. Your currently in a dispute with an editor who edited once as an account, then appears to have switched to editing as an IP. You haven't really attempted to communicate with the IP, other than in edit summaries. Try engaging with the IP editor on their talk page first. If your attempts to initiate a discussion fail and the editor keeps it up, it starts moving towards vandalism, and protection may become justified, but I don't think it is right now.

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – I'm not sure on how duration is determined for pending changes request, so I put Temporary, but if the admin feels indefinite is appropriate that is fine too. Also, was unsure if semi-protection would be more appropriate. This page is constantly vandalized by IPs, and when it's not vandalized, it's usually IPs adding unverified claims or unhelpful good faith edits that have to be reverted, adding this to pending changes would solve both issues. -War wizard90 (talk) 06:20, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Haha, I just realized my mistake...Pending changes would limit non-IP editors, where as semi-protection would still solve both issues, so I guess I should have requested semi after all. -War wizard90 (talk) 06:28, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent vandalism – This movie is against terrorism. And that's the reason some IPs with a similar agenda are constantly vandalizing the page. Constructive IP editors must contribute. make it "pending changes review" instead of semi-protection. No need for temporary semi-protection. Indefinite "pending changes review"is suitable.

Temporary semi-protection: It's about a football player. He has agreed terms to move from HJK Helsinki to Panathinaikos F.C. (reference). The transfer will take place after the summer transfer window starts, on July 1, 2015. The player still plays for HJK Helsinki, but, he was, falsely, listed as a Panathinaikos F.C. player twice in the article. I suggest that the article gets semi-protected until July 1, 2015 where the actual transfer will take place, in order to avoid disruptive editing on his current playing status.

United Kingdom Independence Party; UK Independence Party (UKIP)
Indefinite semi-protection and indefinite move semi-protection (and indefinite full creation protection for the uncreated articles): To fall in line with the protection currently afforded to the article for one of their former Party Leaders (Nigel Farage) (for persistent vandalism). A highly controversial political party in the United Kingdom for multiple reasons, especially because of their anti-mass-immigration stance. Ongoing high risk of IP vandalism, especially by and from anti-UKIP, "anti-racist" or "anti-fascist" activists, especially from members, supporters or sympathisers of the British Far Left. There are in fact even political parties and political organisations or groups (UAF, SWP, HNH, Searchlight, TUSC) in the United Kingdom which have the specific stated object (objective) or aim (although amongst other things) to "target" and disrupt that particular political party and their activities. Vandalism risks unlikely to change as long as UKIP exists as some sort of a "radical right" British political party with an anti-mass-immigration stance (and thus getting targeted by the British Far Left), therefore annual reviews are probably unnecessary. -- 5.198.6.211 (talk) 04:26, 9 May 2015 (UTC)

 * It would be easier if you registered an account, or left a message at Talk:Easter to request a change. Deryck C. 07:43, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * This request is made per the unanimous consensus at Village pump (proposals)/Archive 121. 156.61.250.250 (talk) 08:16, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * The consensus is that we shouldn't enact any new specific guideline on indefinite protection, so I don't think it applies here. But I agree that protections in general shouldn't be permanent. I'll give Courcelles some time to comment... this has been protected for over a year so we're in no rush. Deryck C. 10:07, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * The proposition was


 * Pages with high levels of vandalism should be permanently semi - protected and no requests should be made to remove the semi - protection.


 * The RfC was SNOW closed with the comment


 * Consensus is clearly against this proposal.


 * If that's not a guideline what is it?  Protection for over a year from just before Easter is about eleven months too long. 156.61.250.250 (talk) 10:34, 7 May 2015 (UTC)"
 * A decision not to enact a guideline for permanent semi-protection in all affected articles is different from a guideline against permanent semi-protection in general. Deryck C. 11:33, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * The discussion wasn't about "affected articles".  It was about all articles. 156.61.250.250 (talk) 12:05, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Deryck is being a little ingenuous.  It's true the article has been protected for over a year - it's actually been protected for over two years.   But since he's just protected Makedonija "forever" I guess he's not too worried about following policy. 156.61.250.250 (talk) 15:30, 7 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Unprotecting this page would accomplish exactly nothing, except that time would be wasted along the way, and especially next spring as it comes around again, reverting vandalism and eventually protecting it. It got vandalised all year around, but it spikes in an annual merry-go-round.  Why would we make ourselves work harder?  Courcelles (talk) 17:32, 7 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I surveyed the action after the last unprotect on 18 June 2012 up to the end of the year.  I didn't check the Lent activity.   The reverts are as follows.   Note that some of the IP editing removed vandalism and Clue Bot picked up most of the rest.   Not all the reverts related to vandalism.
 * June 0
 * July 0
 * August 6/19
 * September 4/12
 * October 13/31
 * November 10/32
 * December 3/14

Bearing in mind that ClueBot shouldered most of the load there's nothing here to warrant permanent protection. The community says articles should not be permanently protected - if you disagree you should not permanently protect them, you should start an RfC explaining why you want the policy changed and wait for the result.

I would like to suggest adding next to "Newsweek concluded that it was primarily about harassment rather than ethics....", located under "Debate over Ethics Allegations" this counterpoint from David Auerbach.

http://www.slate.com/articles/technology/bitwise/2015/05/google_searches_and_racism_why_big_data_studies_don_t_explain_society_as.2.html

David Auerbach: "None of the big-data analyses of Gamergate showed much of anything about harassment... despite attempts on both sides to spin the results. Newsweek’s Taylor Wofford claimed that a Brandwatch study of Gamergate tweets showed that Gamergate was mostly about harassment, except that Brandwatch’s classifier wasn’t able to determine whether 90 percent of the tweets were positive or negative. The study showed nothing, but Newsweek wrote it up anyway."

 * Pictogram voting oppose.svg Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection.

 * I semi'd this just as you declined the request, so I went ahead and removed the protection. While I agree there are a great handful of good-faith edits, I felt the amount of disruptive editing (not necessarily vandalism) and addition of unsourced content weighed out to warrant protection. The popularity of the topic and its resultantly high visibility may also play a factor. Another vandalistic edit that could have easily been overlooked (plug that into a translator). &mdash;  MusikAnimal  talk  17:19, 11 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I saw the request over lunch and decided that if any more vandalism came in this afternoon by teatime, I'd semi it for a few days. There wasn't, so I thought it best to leave it. I think that an IP adding unsourced but easily sourceable information isn't really disruptive per se, as people can add a source instead of reverting. Anyway, this article is obviously one to keep an eye on - I'll watchlist the page and if obvious disruptive edits from IPs kick off, I think we'll be on good grounds to protect. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  17:26, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

A request for unprotection was made and declined on this page yesterday. The reason given was that "the article is a clear vandalism target". Churches get vandalised but the authorities don't stop the general public from going there on Sundays for that reason. We have Clue Bot so that good faith editors can do their work unmolested. A lot of IP editors who are shut out from editing would gladly remove any vandalism if they had the opportunity. It's not true, as Courcelles maintains, that all the mess is left for people like him to clear up.

The claims that this article is affected by vandalism all year round are not true. We're now entering summer, and Easter is the last thing that is on the vandals' minds. I've logged the results for June in all years when editing has been open that month. It will be seen that in the summer vandalism is all but non - existent on this article.

As usual Clue Bot performed sterling service and some of the reverted edits were good - faith edits and some of the reverts were done by IPs.

Pending changes was supposed to have been disabled until such time as the editors can agree on how to make use of it. It doesn’t look as if there is going to be agreement any time soon, and in March editors decided unanimously that they didn’t want any articles in pending changes for any length of time anyway. As I understand them, there are two levels – level 1 which I guess corresponds to semi – protection and level 2 which I guess corresponds to full protection. On that basis, I request that Easter be put in level 1 for a short period. 156.61.250.250 (talk) 12:43, 10 May 2015 (UTC)

 * The nature of this vandalism, not being persistent at any point that it has occurred but occasional, repeated after a long gap and credible regarding an individual who has been gravely ill, is part of the problem in regard to spotting it happening again, hence my request for pending changes protection rather than conventional semi-protection. I expect the edit will continue be repeated but not until after a gap of weeks or months. It would be useful if it has to go through some scrutiny before acceptance the next time. Thank you.

Temp full. This is a dab page, to Wancho language and Wancho people. A student editor is repeatedly turning it into a copy-paste content fork of the language article, as part of a class project, and has not answered objections on their talk page. (If any article belongs at the bare name, it would be the ethnicity.) I'm asking for PP rather than a block because the editor is not malicious, just clueless, and they should be free to edit the language article. Full protection shouldn't be a problem, as this dab is unlikely to be needed to be edited in the next decade. (Any admin who decides to move one of the existing articles here could override the PP anyway.) — kwami (talk) 19:34, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

 * I'd appreciate if you'd please take another look. "The user" you are referring to here from IP 72.76.220.157, which geolocates to Caldwell, New Jersey on Verizon FiOS, is probably not the same user I complained about from the 68.87 range 66.87.76.187, which geolocates to Chicago, Il on Sprint or even the similarly ranged 66.87.121.173, which geolocates to Humble Texas on Sprint PCS. Then there's This guy who shows up. And IP 222.166.156.80 which geolocates to Hong Kong, Central District, HK Cable TV Ltd. Then we're into Santee, California on Cox with the same "critical acclaim" language. So, the interference is coming from either multiple users, or from multiple sock IPs. In either event, page protection would be warranted. Thanks, Cyphoidbomb (talk) 08:28, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Black people
The article at black people needs further protection as well as a poll of American Wikipedians in order to assure that correct information regarding American black people (it's not an opinion issue, but rather a factual issue in which the only way to know what the fact is is by being an American who lives in America). There is some incorrect information in the article stating that black people will claim they are white and/or that white people will claim they are black on census/surveys/police reports/etc., and that Americans frequently call people the wrong race. This has involved the non-Americans reverting my edit, one member harassing me for over 3 hours now (my estimate so please do not use time logs to falsely "prove me wrong" on the time), and help desk refusing to tell me where to report the harassment. Please put up the poll (unless the administrator who reads this is an American who frequently has contact with different races and therefore knows that this is true in which case no poll may be needed), fix the article to be correct regarding this issue instead of incorrect, and then protect it until they stop reverting. <font face="Edwardian Script ITC" color="#9B30FF" size="5">~Rayvn 02:04, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

End semi-protection

I recently started a thread on the Village Pump where people generally seemed to agree that talk pages should not be indefinitely semi-protected. One of the talk pages that is presently semi-protected is Talk:Inspire (magazine), since June 6, 2013, with the stated reason "Persistent violations of WP:LINKVIO, IP editors socking". I raised this at that page and at Jehochman's talk page and wasn't able to persuade him; User:Newyorkbrad came in to favor the permanent semi-protection, but I want more discussion because it's totally out of the range of normal policy.

The decision to exclude source links from the article, let alone the talk page, is controversial, for example in the "Example of the Magazine" and "Website URL?" threads from the talk page. Excluding the IP editors who posted the links clearly biases the discussion, and even if you simply look at all the editors commenting, there is no genuine consensus to exclude them at all.

Even if the links fail WP:EL, it is not our policy to censor all discussion of a link based on the remarkable claim that it is "contributory copyright infringement" against al-Qaida to mention it. This is clearly a matter of people censoring what they want, without regard to policy.

Yet this is one of very few articles in Category:Semi-protected talk pages - it will inevitably be seen either as an error or as a precedent. A precedent that admins can supervote over IPs and ban them as a class from the discussion in order to win the argument. A precedent that there are sources Wikipedia is unwilling to look at, even though they are legally distributed in the U.S. A precedent that for any given article there is a right POV and a wrong POV, and only the former can be allowed to be looked at.

If there were truly a national security reason to block people from looking at al-Qaida's lousy magazine, I don't think it would be left to Wikipedia admins to make the decision about it. So don't pretend you're the Parliament of the World and don't compromise our values for the sake of amateur not-a-law enforcement. Wnt (talk) 17:15, 16 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Pictogram voting oppose.svg Declined This isn't the correct venue for generating a wider discussion. And given the discussion at Talk:Inspire (magazine) I doubt that anybody will unprotect the talk page any time soon. I suggest that a Requests for comment will get the attention of more editors.

 * User:Flyer22, any vandalism that "seeps through" PC will seep through semi-protection as well. Neither one does anything to prevent unconstructive edits by autoconfirmed users. If too much of it is getting through, or if the need to review changes is getting too frequent and burdensome, ask again for semi-protection. --MelanieN (talk) 01:47, 19 May 2015 (UTC)


 * MelanieN, by "any vandalism that 'seeps through' PC will seep through semi-protection as well," you mean that autoconfirmed users can vandalize as well, correct? That's true, but vandalism usually comes from IPs and registered accounts that have not been autoconfirmed, and other unconstructive edits come from IPs and non-autoconfirmed registered accounts more than they come from autoconfirmed users. What I meant by not being a fan of WP:Pending changes is that I see editors okaying vandalism or other unconstructive edits (usually unconstructive edits that are not vandalism), and I am sometimes tempted to ask those editors why they allowed such edits through; it's like they weren't paying attention. But still, I know that WP:Pending changes can be helpful; so I honestly appreciate your help in this case. Flyer22 (talk) 01:56, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection (though honestly, the problem is endemic and the article may truly warrant permanent semi-protection). All variants of the name "Seán" redirect here, and because they (combined) are such common names, the article's edit history is filled with edits by [mostly] IP accounts bragging about things such as the sexual prowess of people with the name "Seán/ Shawn/ Shaun/ Shayne/ Shane", edits which are just as endlessly reverted either by bots or by diligent editors. This has been a problem since the article was created, and I suspect will be a problem as long as people named "Seán" exist and can edit Wikipedia without having to log in and establish an edit history. A temporary semi-protection might at least slow this down, though I am rather certain it will all come right back once this is lifted. I don't want to ask for the moon, but figured I'd at least put in a request for the stars and see if anything can be done. <font face="Verdana"> KDS 4444 Talk  11:22, 18 May 2015 (UTC)

 * KrakatoaKatie, question please: Thank-you for page-protecting this article on May 1; I remember testing it by logging out and being unable to edit and I noted your protection was logged (see link above). Today, even though the page was just re-protected, after logging out I can still edit and I see the new protection is not logged. Do you think this page is protected?

Temporary full-protection: Recommending full protection. There has been some reverts by multiple editors. I think full protection may be necessary. One of the benefits of full protection is that it's like a sedative -- participants are denied the adrenaline rush that comes from argumentation and reverting, so the situation naturally becomes calmer. QuackGuru ( talk ) 05:52, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Long-term pattern of vandalism by new users and IPs. Everymorning  talk  20:56, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Pictogram voting oppose.svg Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. This is a tough one. Most edits to this page are vandalism (Poop is a DAB page, so there's really nothing to talk about on the talk page). But these edits are infrequent, a few a month, not really enough to justify long-term semi-protection. Also, since the article page is semi-protected, the talk page theoretically needs to be available for non-autoconfirmed users to make edit requests. Because of persistent but infrequent vandalism, this would be an ideal candidate for Pending Changes protection, but it looks as if that option is not available for a talk page.

Semi-protection, Edit notice: There is something that just ran on adult swim/Cartoon Network that shows this page being vandalized, and someone keeps monkey-see-monkey-doing. The instructions don't include logging in, so semiprotection should be enough. Without tracking down the show I can't guess how many times it will air, but I see a similar burst from May 1 - if you research it you might be able to limit the term of protection. Come to think of it, this is probably some of these kids' first introductions to Wikipedia, so I'd suggest an instructive edit notice and please try not to get block happy.

 * Thank you. Perhaps vandalism can be confused with dispute with changes to the content of the article over a period of time. However, many of the changes to the content that were made over time (and subsequently reverted in a wholesale manner) were improvements in concision and reduction in the length of an otherwise unreadable article. The talk page is the appropriate way to proceed and I hope we can all work to achieve consensus regarding content whilst keeping the article readable and accessible. It is obviously a contentious issue but that doesn't mean that the article cannot follow general standards of presentation. 131.111.141.163 (talk) 11:45, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

User:Natureguy1980


Indefinite semi-protection: IPs keep altering this user page in ways that are directly contrary to the known intent of that retired user. I'm fairly certain who is doing it, but that's irrelevant. Natureguy1980 resigned editing, along with another editor, in the wake of the WP:BIRDCON RfC not going their way. Both of them personally blamed me in particular for the result (which is fine; being scapegoated for a community decision isn't going to kill me). Natureguy1980 left a parting-shot resignation message singling me out by name for lambasting, but later came back for a while as an IP, which he identified as himself at WT:BIRDS, and moderated his own post on his own page. Since that time, other IPs revert it back to the WP:NPA-problematic version without explanation, every few months. There is no evidence any of them are Natureguy1980, so they basically constitute vandalism of a page the "owner" of which is no longer around to undo. I consider this less of an issue for me than for Natureguy1980, who may return, since the reversion makes him appear more intemperate than he actually turned out to be, while the change doesn't actually affect anyone's opinion of me. If Natureguy1980 himself wants to come back and self-revert to the earlier version, I wouldn't even object (far worse things were said about me at WT:BIRDS and I took no action about it). But other people should not be forcing words back into Natureguy1980's mouth, again and again. — SMcCandlish ☺ ☏ ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ≼  02:12, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. The player has agreed terms with Greek club Panathinaikos FC on May 6. The transfer will take place on July 1, 2015 when the Greek transfer window opens. IP editors keep adding Panathinaikos as his current club, when it's obvious that the player is still on Helsinki's squad (he played a game on May 24 for Helsinki) It's the second time I request semi-protection. At that time there were only 2 edits identified as vandalism. Since then there has been 4 more disruptive edits, that even removed text that advised not to add transfer to Panathinaikos before July 1 (examples here, here, here and here). I request that the page be semi-protected until July 1, 2015, when the transfer will finally take place. Hansi667 (Neighbor Of The Beast) a penny for your thoughts? 19:09, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Unprotection: There is no BLP violation, as it is covered in reliable sources. This semi-protection appears to be an attempt to quash the talkapge consensus to include it, by preventing the IP user from editing. Joseph2302 (talk) 09:40, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

For referral this protection granted by @CambridgeBayWeather was only archived a few hours ago as closed with one week of protection on the article. This contentious book is supposed to be published in the next few das, so it would be quite inappeopriate to remove the protection to the article due to BLP issues, and the two currently unresolved edit warring reports concerning said article. If anything the protection should be lengthened.

Watts Up With That?


Temporary full-protection: The page is currently semi-protected. That occurred because an editor recently decided to characterize the blog as a blog dedicated to global warming denial.

That prompted a post at the subject site The sad tales of the Wikipedia gang war regarding WUWT – ‘creepy and a little scary’. Semi=protection was added to ensure that drive-bys didn't overwhelm the article.

However, despite the semi-protection, the term has been edit-warred in and out over the last few days. A robust discussion is occurring on the talk pages, cf this section but it clearly has not reached a consensus.

Curiously, the original editor has reinserted the term with the ironic edit summary ''Rv change of very close paraphrase to consensus version. Please discuss these issues and establish new consensus before instituting novel changes. Thanks. ''. She is not the only one involved, so individual blocks are not in order.

I suggest it should be fully protected while participants discuss whether there is sufficient consensus for inclusion of the term or some other wording.-- S Philbrick (Talk)  14:46, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

If you're looking for evidence that the article (at least in the form posted by the sockpuppet) has been previously deleted on grounds other than CSD G5, you can see that this has happened three times already: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&page=Parasparam  It was already create-protected last year, which led to the sockmaster recreating it under the new title Parasparam (television series) (now Parasparam (TV series), as I see someone has just moved it yet again).
 * Could you or another admin please also address the second page in my request, Chandanamazha? Again, this one had already been deleted at least four times before under various titles. —Psychonaut (talk) 17:55, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

 * This all feels like needless busywork, all of this is pre-emptive except where they've been protected already. The fact you didn't check if they even had protection or not seems like you're just looking for reasons to protect this very short list of common words (with random expletives because what could be more common than cunt?) The majority already have the protection you request, why didn't you check rather than just finding problem areas that would be dealt with on an article by article basis anyway? Eitherway, if you're thinking a vast swathe of articles need protecting, especially core ones like these, that is something that'd need to be opened to a far wider audience such as on AN, not here. tutterMouse (talk) 08:08, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Adding unreliable references about a controversial topic on multiple related articles
Temporary semi-protection: There is a high level of IP vandalism (adding unreliable references and removing reliable references) by what appears to be the same person because the edits are almost identical across articles and attempts. However, the IP address changes regularly and it would be hard to apply an IP address block that will be wide enough to actually stop this vandalism without being too wide and blocking IP addresses that were not involved in the vandalism. Protecting the articles would be more effective. Hopefully a two week block on all involved articles will be long enough. Spidey 104  18:26, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

List of Girl Meets World episodes


Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent disruptive editing from IP users in the 107.188.*.* group (might be same person who gets assigned different addresses in this range when editing), who replaces reliably referenced viewership numbers with data from a Wikia site related to Girl Meets World. This is coming shortly after the article had been semi-protected for two weeks, and I am recommending a significantly longer period of semi-protection this time (though I was contemplating indefinite, but that seems harsh). The 107.188.*.* user(s) had done this thing even before the recent semi-protection, back in mid-May, and they are persistent in changing the numbers to those from the unreliable Wikia page. The parent article Girl Meets World also suffered this kind of viewership data tinkering/hoaxing/vandalism earlier in the year when the episode list was part of that article.
