Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. — Czello (music) 16:39, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- If we do that, since we usually go to full-protection for only a few days and MediaWiki does not currently allow us to layer full and semi-protections, the article would remain unprotected when the protection expires until we could reprotect it if necessary. Might 1RR be a better option? Daniel Case (talk) 04:40, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- 1RR would be a decent solution as this is a CTOPs article — Czello (music) 07:09, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Last was a couple of days ago. I am really loathe to protect AfDs (although I have done it) since it could be seen as tipping the process toward one side or the other. Daniel Case (talk) 21:41, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Semi-protection - We have a series of IPs who're claiming SSR is still alive and being hidden by his management - a far cry from what was the case even last year but still not something supported by the sources. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:04, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
Already protected by administrator Nthep. for one year. Daniel Case (talk) 03:31, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
Reason: I think it would be a good idea to protect this article so that users without an account cannot edit them, since for about a month there has been a user with an IP from Macedonia (the last one he used was 77.29.162.92) who is constantly being blocked because he keeps vandalizing football team articles (Málaga CF, Real Oviedo, Granada CF, Athletic Bilbao, FK Partizan, FK Voždovac, etc.) AlejandroR1990 (talk) 16:49, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Disruptive editing on a newly released popular film, mostly by IPs (specifically from the 103.38.17.0/24 range which has already been blocked once for this [likely connected to the Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Symon Sadik). These edits disrupt the lead/ib despite Talk page consensus to the contrary. Gotitbro (talk) 20:14, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. That range hasn't edited the article in at least a few days. Recent history shows few reverts if any. Daniel Case (talk) 04:01, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent edit-warring from Colorado IP range Special:Contributions/2601:283:4600:7050:0:0:0:0/64, blocked once last April. Disruption also from France IPs. Binksternet (talk) 20:25, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Also, both times this change has been reverted, the explanations have been unhelpful and somewhat bitey (i.e.,
remove unsourced text
when the text includes sources, andRv edit warring
when it's the second attempt to add the text). Protecting this article for a single editor making what appears to be good faith edits is not justified. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 00:42, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 21:44, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. @SNUGGUMS: Please don't use this kind of edit summary. It starts off confrontational and focuses on the other editor instead of the content. Overall, it's bitey and it's no wonder the other editor made the same edit again. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 02:11, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not sure what comes off as confrontational about pointing out inaccuracies or defiance of a hidden note that was meant to be followed. Nevertheless, this is far from the only IP who did such things, and leaving the page unprotected isn't helping matters. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 03:09, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
- @SNUGGUMS: Starting a summary with a word like "False" reads as an attempt to shut down any discussion. Combined with "you shouldn't have ignored" and "fabricated claims", the tone feels accusatory and confrontational. These types of edit summaries are more likely to escalate disagreements (which happened) than result in a civil discussion.
- By the way, I wonder whether adding a link to a talk page discussion might help with that inline comment.
- As to protecting the page, only one IP editor has edited the article in the last 16 days. One person making the same edit twice isn't sufficient justification to protect an article, especially in these circumstances. The protection policy discusses the general principles involved in its lead and first section. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 03:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.
- To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
- Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
- Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
- If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.

Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
- Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}template should be used. - Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
- If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
- This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

"Zionists wanted to create a Jewish state in Palestine with as much land, as many Jews, and as few Palestinian Arabs as possible." This is an opinion and interpretation of Zionism. You cannot present this in the opening page about Zionism since it is not one of the main aspects of Zionism at all, and not a universal aspect of Zionism and most certainly was not a priority in Zionist ideology. It was an aspiration of several factions of Zionism and was acted upon during the 1947-1949 civil war in Palestine. In her work, Manna, Adel (2022), argues for this interpretation because during the war "the principal objective of the Zionist leadership to keep as few Arabs as possible in the Jewish state" (p.2) and "in the 1948 war, when it became clear that the objective that enjoyed the unanimous support of Zionists of all inclinations was to establish a Jewish state with the smallest possible number of Palestinians" (p.4). These were war objectives and not key tenets of Zionism. Mana then goes above and beyond and claims: "The Zionists had two cherished objectives: fewer Arabs in the country and more land in the hands of the settlers" (p.33). First, this is also a war objective and not an ideological objective. You can also say the same about the other side "The Arab countries had two cherished objectives: fewer Jews in the country and more land in the hands of Arabs". While both are true, they were not a key tenet in their ideology (and I would argue that Arabs made clear they wished the land to be Jew-free more than the Jews wanted it to be Arab-free, they just couldn't act upon it because of military inferiority). Furthermore, this statement was never proven, but simply given as a fact and quoted here on Wikipedia. The Zionists main objective was to secure safe borders regardless and prevent Arab countries from occupying any land that was part of the British Mandate for Palestine. In their aim to do so, the most strategic move, was to occupy as much land and depopulate it from the civilian population that was hostile to the Jews and supportive of the Arab countries. This is not an opinion, this is a fact of war and you don't need to be a military strategist to understand the logic in that. I would suggest that you simply write "Zionists wanted to create a Jewish state in Palestine". The rest of the sentence is Mana's own beliefs and thoughts and is highly disputable and a personal slander for most Zionists. You cannot write this on Wikipedia which should be a neutral ground. You can move that part to a sub-chapter and write "Many scholars today believe that Zionists wanted to create a Jewish state in Palestine with as much land, as many Jews, and as few Palestinian Arabs as possible". This means that it is not a neutral fact and is open for debate! But if you honor your own neutrality, as you write in the Page title "Wikipedia:Neutral point of view" (All encyclopedic content on Wikipedia must be written from a neutral point of view (NPOV), which means representing fairly, proportionately, and, as far as possible, without editorial bias), then take that sentence down from the opening page and most certainly don't write it as a fact, because it isn't a fact, it isn't neutral and it is most certainly not bias.

I would like to request that in the Casualties and losses section, "1,000+ Lebanese civilians killed[36]" will be removed or rephrased. That is because the article itself doesn't mention if they were civilians or fighters, while Hezbollah hasn't published official death numbers since the beeper attack.

GnocchiFan has made 5,000+ edits this year alone including 
seven Good Articles. They make extensive use of WMF Library to improve sourcing and prose. I believe they are both an excellent editor and also communicator, evident at sensitive article topics at 1984 anti-Sikh riots and Gender and sexual minorities in the Ottoman Empire. In short, let's reduce NPP backlog by giving them auto-patrolled status. ~ 🦝 Shushugah (he/him • talk) 12:11, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

- @TParis: I was just taking a look at this when you accepted the request, but I have my concerns here. The single source tags on Martha Bohachevsky-Chomiak and Elizabeth Neesom are valid, and Elisabeth Nilsson (lawyer) doesn't demonstrate the subject's notability very well. They have some very good-looking articles, but I feel that the basis of quality for their creations needs to be a bit higher before they're ready for the autopatrolled flag. Courtesy ping for GnocchiFan; I hope this feedback is useful for your writing in the future. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 19:36, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- I agree – those are valid concerns. I've removed the flag. Schwede66 20:20, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- I don't really hold the same reservations that you do. There is a systematic bias against covering women in history and it's even greater outside of western media. There has been an effort to increase coverage of women and I feel these two articles are geared towards that goal. It's easy to write an internet article about a living person that recently does a thing and get it published. It only costs bits and bytes. But sources existing in the early 20th century or earlier, about women, when publishing was costlier rings stronger with regards to GNG than a single article on the internet. Overall, I'm confident this user will create encyclopedic content without significant errors. None of us are error free.--v/r - TP 20:27, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Meets the minimum criteria, and a random sampling of their creations doesn't raise any red flags.

Dear Wikipedia Admins, I am requesting the Autopatrolled right to further support my contributions to Wikipedia. While I may not have thousands of edits or article creations, my work is rooted in careful research and learning from experienced editors. My focus is on Iranian early modern, modern, and contemporary art and culture, especially highlighting the stories of Iranian women often overlooked in history. I ensure all my edits are supported by reliable, academic sources, and I have a track record of accurate contributions with very few reverts. I believe that having the Autopatrolled right would allow me to continue enhancing the articles related to Iran and Iranian art and culture. Thank you for your consideration.

I'd like to get this right to delete unnecessary redirects (i.e. move pages over existing single revision redirects regardless of target). Additionally, I would also like to try to harmonize some pages of Spanish municipalities with the name of the country and the province (when necessary) instead of other subnational units (such as comarca). Moreover if a double denomination exists in some cases, I shall use the slash with spaces in between to enhance visual effect of different linguistic nomenclatures. However if an English form is more relevant I shall use it instead of double and local denominations. Other than that I could help elsewhere to move pages if necessary. Thank you, Nuvolet (talk)

- I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 08:27, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

- Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? -Fastily 01:08, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

- @Fastily: I was blocked on 5 July 2024, due to edit warring. But after that, I have learned more about wikipedia policies. As you can see, in my recent contributions I haven't been in any edit warring and was notifying the users about the reverts. Thanks. Charliehdb (talk) 03:09, 4 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not done per Bbb23. Also your answer to my question does little to assure me that you have learned from the errors/behavior that led to your edit warring block. Please spend several more months establishing a track record of problem-free contributions before reapplying, thanks. -Fastily 09:41, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- Great, thanks for confirming. I'm also a bit concerned by your recent block for edit warring. How have you learned from this experience, and in your own words, can you explain why your actions leading up to the block were inappropriate? Also, courtesy ping for @Bbb23 -Fastily 20:29, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Fastily: Offcourse, I will leave warnings/notifications for every revert. Charliehdb (talk) 13:39, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? -Fastily 01:08, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Fastily: Thanks for pointing it out. I assure you that I will warn all vandals from now on. I hope you give me Rollback rights. Thanks. Charliehdb (talk) 12:40, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

I've been editing since 2015, with almost 80K edits, and have experience patrolling recent changes such as those in my watchlist. I'm familiar with policies such as VANDAL and WARN, and regularly use appropriate edit summaries and warning templates, through the use of Twinkle and RedWarn. Having rollback rights would help me revert clear cases of vandalism more effectively. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 15:35, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not done I don't think you should be applying for advanced permissions at this time. I see you've been blocked repeatedly for edit warring and just had TE revoked. Even so, I've reviewed your recent contributions and found sparse/little to no recent anti-vandalism work, and that is simply too few examples for me to determine if you'll be able to use the right appropriately. Please spend a few months establishing a track record of problem-free contributions before reapplying, thanks -Fastily 09:41, 6 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Fastily: my use of rollback would be strictly for clear cases of vandalism, and I actively revert vandalism using my alt account, Neveselbert (mobile), especially when I'm on the go. Regarding the template editing issues, I misunderstood the proper process. I would use rollback rights solely to revert clear-cut vandalism, which is a different and more straightforward task. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 20:03, 7 October 2024 (UTC)

I have been engaging in recent changes patrolling for some time now, so I'd like to request rollback permission primarily to be able to use tools, so that I can patrol more quickly and efficiently. Thanks. Kovcszaln6 (talk) 17:38, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

I've been actively patrolling recent changes for a significant amount of time and have developed a solid understanding of Wikipedia’s guidelines on vandalism and disruptive edits. Throughout this period, I’ve consistently identified and reverted problematic edits, but doing this manually can be time-consuming. Having rollback rights would allow me to handle these issues more quickly and efficiently, helping ensure Wikipedia stays a reliable resource. I’m committed to using these tools responsibly and continuing to contribute effectively to the project. Thank you DelphiLore (talk) 19:11, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 09:41, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

I regularly patrol the recent changes page using filters that flag edits that may have problems or could be vandalism. With confirmed vandals, I keep an eye on their contributions for a short time afterwards to catch any resumed vandalism, while continuing to patrol recent changes. I previously used RedWarn, but I currently use UltraViolet and Twinkle. Rollback would enhance my recent change patrolling and anti-vandalism efforts. Thank you.

- I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 05:57, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Due to the chronic shortage of admins at DYK to perform prep-to-queue moves, the protection levels were recently downgraded to Template editor - really per WT:DYK#Plan of action v2 but you may wish to start at WT:DYK#Giving queues template instead of full protection? for the full context. I would like to help with this. Launchballer 16:06, 8 October 2024 (UTC)
