[edit]Thanks for your efforts to remove vandalism and dreck from this article, FWIW. Their website says that the president has changed, Kristin O'Connell went to the Antipoverty Centre, and I can't easily find the co-ordinators on the website so I dunno if the others are still accurate.

Question for administrator
[edit] | This request for help from administrators has been answered. If you need more help or have additional questions, please reapply the {{admin help}} template, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page. |
Help - it seems like either one person is now persistently targeting the Australian Unemployed Workers' Union page seeking to vandalise through multiple IP addresses, or a group of people are doing this in concert. Three single-purpose IPs have appeared there now in the last two days, each seeking to add the exact same WP:OR incorrect information on that page.
That page has been targeted by many IPs and red-linked accounts (mostly single-purpose), on and off within the last three years, but now more so than usual. When I send a warning to one IP, another IP appears later on doing the same disruptive/vandalising edit.
What would be the best way forward to deal with this issue?

- Hi JayBee00. Looks like the page is in the midst of an uptick in disruptive editing, so I protected it for a week. I know this is unlikely to be helpful with the periodic waves of interest. I think the involvement of more experienced editors might be a better solution than more admin action. A neutral post to WP:AUSTRALIA or a noticeboard like WP:NPOV might solicit some more watchlisters. Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 14:19, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you Firefangledfeathers, appreciate that intervention too - yeah, I think I'll try the NPOV noticeboard first during this next week. Although given the overall pattern of disruption, hoping permanent semi-protection might be possible later on as the situation continues though. That would definitely deal with most of the disruptive editing going forward, if it can be done.JayBee00 (talk) 14:25, 28 September 2023 (UTC)
- Speaking just for myself, I'd be inclined to turn down an indefinite protection request. I might feel differently if there were obvious talk page consensus against the change the IPs keep making. Another admin might feel differently. I would recommend going right to WP:RFPP/I next time instead of using the admin help template.

Brisbane Bears' Foundation Date Infobox
[edit]Hi mate,
Saw your revision - didn't realise there were such an extensive discussion on it already, so I accept that the Brisbane Lions isn't a successor club. However, I do still think that the added text following the Bears' foundation date in the infobox is messy and long. I think it'd be enough to include the 'current status' of the club in the main body and leave the infobox foundation date as is à la St. George Dragons.
What do you think? PokeFan10025 (talk) 10:01, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hi again,
- Thought I'll give you a heads-up in that I'll edit the page to reflect my suggestion sometime soon, which I assume you're content with judging by the lack of a response. I could compromise with a footnote if you really want the info included; it'll just make everything look neater. PokeFan10025 (talk) 13:45, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry PokeFan10025, but I've been busy with things IRL. That content in the infobox was the result of a fix I had to do after a previous factually incorrect infobox edit by someone else back in October. Having that clarification seemed like the best way to ensure a reasonable working consensus with no more editing conflict from that source, and until now that seems to have worked out, so would prefer it remained that way really I think.
