  • Nearly every edit dating at least to October 2013--I haven't looked further back--has been a BLP violation, nonsense or defamatory. It appears as if the only valid edits in the last year and a half have been reversions. Some of the vandalism most recently reverted had been embedded for months, a good example of why BLPs are supposed to be monitored and protected from this sort of abuse. 2602:302:D88:CFA9:7D2B:B1F6:B81C:DF33 (talk) 02:54, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@MusikAnimal: Color changes from non-communist yellow to communist red, and switch of flags from that of the former Republic, to the one of the communist North. As well as personal attacks and insults directed to myself, in Vietnamese, in the sock's edit summaries, which are too profane and grotesque for it to be described here. This is the same guy who vandalized my talkpage with monkey penis photos, hammer-and-sickle and red-flag-yellow-star images etc. for the past 24 hrs, and nonstop for a week in December '14. He also commented that he will return, on his edit summaries.

{{Rfpp|nea}} Malinaccier (talk) 18:16, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • This is a highly transcluded template and as such qualifies for TE protection. I'm requesting another administrator consider this template since now we've added about 45K jobs to the job queue. Thank you. I'll also note that it was inappropriate for Malinaccier to remove my initial comment when replying, I'll assume it was accidental. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 20:52, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Template protection is inappropriate, there is currently a content dispute related to the template and, since a template editor is involved, template protection would give them an advantage in the dispute. PhantomTech (talk)
  • I have no objection to full protection of the version before the first contested dispute, which was the edit in which PhantomTech broke over 11.5K transclusions by removing the # from the template. He did so without any sandbox testing or any attempt to establish a consensus first. Once this dispute is resolved, lowering to TE would be appropriate and appreciated. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 12:52, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Funny enough, I actually did do quite a bit of testing, you might not have seen it because of a sneaky little preview button that lets someone test quick changes without actually having to publish them. I should also point out that it's hard to believe with all the information I've given you that you still insist all 11k transclusions were broken. Not a single transclusion from before November 4 2014 was broken, and not a single transclusion that followed the docs was broken. The only transclusions that would have been "broken" by my fix are ones which showed a different number of # than the channel they linked to had. PhantomTech (talk) 15:32, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • You don't understand apparently. Changes to templates like this take a long time to be processed through the WP:JOBQUEUE, and just because they didn't "look" broken to you, does not mean that your change did not break them. Those transclusions just did not know they were broken yet because they hadn't been updated. This is why BRD doesn't apply to highly transcluded pages, and that is why this template should have no less than TE protection and as I said above, I have no objection to full protection if that is what PhantomTech wants so I can't edit it. I'll point out I think it is excessive due to the fact that despite the fact I am a TE and could edit it, I'm the one opposed to the change until a consensus can be reached that the community either wants to run a bot through all of the existing transclusions and change them so that they explicitly include the # in the template parameter and then update the template. That said, I don't understand why we would want to change the way that it is now and has been for a very long time that works well (I've never seen it not work, and if PhantomTech thinks they have an instance where there is no way the current template can work, I'd love to hear it). I personally object to this change that PhantomTech wants to make as NOTBROKEN and since they insist on doing it anyways instead of discussing it, protection is certainly needed. Thank you. — {{U|Technical 13}} (e • t • c) 18:41, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Template protected. Technical 13 is right, this should be, at a minimum, Template protected. Despite the appearance (real or otherwise) that T13 is requesting protection to retain his preferred version, the template had been stable for the last five months, so protecting it at that version does no harm. Further, fully protecting it will have no impact to any content dispute, since this is the version that T13 wishes to retain anyway. The place to discuss the merits of one # or two is not RFPP, it's the template talk page. kelapstick(bainuu) 20:03, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It says just above to “see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.” I see nothing at the top of this page pertaining to edit requests. So my first request is: Please add these instructions to this page.

Second: In Wikipedia#Critical reception, please make the following change (minus styling):

concluding that the fact that Wikipedia explicitly is not designed to provide correct information about a subject, but rather only present the majority “weight” of viewpoints creates omissions, which can lead to false beliefs based on incomplete information.

Otherwise, the first “that” is dangling. —174.141.182.82 (talk) 20:19, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The instructions at the top are the same for edit requests as protection requests, it's just so there's a header and a section and we can see what article needs attention quickly. As for the request, do you need the first "that' removing as well? tutterMouse (talk) 09:05, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, the first “that” is proper if the “which” is removed. It concludes “that the fact … can lead to ….” Unless I’m misreading it, in which case the whole sentence may need to be rewritten. —174.141.182.82 (talk) 15:52, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Oh wow, wait, I did misread it. New request: Insert a comma at “… of viewpoints, creates omissions which …” —174.141.182.82 (talk) 16:00, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'd have argued for a rewrite or at least a breakup as it scans slightly unevenly but I can rewrite that myself. Anyway, edit Done. tutterMouse (talk) 16:14, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – There is an ongoing content dispute in progress. At the core of it are FleetCommand and Diego Moya, who seem to edit things around the disputed area slightly each time (perhaps as a subterfuge) but the disputed area is reverted forth and back each time. An IP user later tried to intervene with clear bias in favor of Diego. (The last two edits in the article suggests that they might be the same person.) I myself made two reverts in the interest of maintaining a fair discussion but I clearly see that I was wrong. (Actually, the original contribution that fueled the war is mine; but the disputants, busy focusing at each other's throats, have not even checked that!) I should have come here earlier. There is a talk page entry but a conversion that addresses the core dispute (instead of people) is yet to start! The disputants merely talk at each other and don't wait for a reply before reverting. Carrying out the stage in which they call all involved parties (me) hasn't occurred yet.

Temporary semi-protection: Two IP editors, one from the Philippines, the other from Indonesia, have for at least three months repeatedly added unsourced content to the article. I've had an open discussion on the talk page for a week and the IPs keep coming back to add unsourced content. In these edits they even seem to be at odds: [7][8] with one IP adding The Penguins of Madagascar to the list of future episodes (WP:CRYSTAL), with the other editor removing it and replacing it with Penn Zero: Part Time Hero (also unsourced, also in vio of WP:CRYSTAL) The article has also been heavily vandalized by the Vietnam Disney Vandal in the past, and for all I know, this could be an extension of that. The article hasn't gotten many edits from constructive editors that provide sources. For these reasons, I'm requesting long-term semi-protection from IPs, preferably for 3 months, to match the length of time these IPs have been disrupting the article. Danke.

I'm User:Dan Murphy. At home today, simply don't remember my password (have it saved on work computer). The stuff about me being a banned user etc... is just childish Wikipedia content gaming (Mr. Apple hates Mr. Kohs and wants to be able to skew articles for that reason - and is edit-warring to do so.

I don't much care what this real life ID this IP claims to have. It popped up at the same time as a new account started at the related article, MyWikiBiz and is quacking in the same fashion, personal attacks and general childishness. Coretheapple (talk) 14:37, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My name is Dan Murphy. I control this IP address (and the account cunningly named "Dan Murphy"). I "popped up" because your vicious, agenda-driven editing came to my attention.

And I see from your contrib and block history that you pop up on occasion long enough to be blocked for harassment and edit warring, as you are doing now.

Semi-protection: High level of vandalism (i.e. describing the party as "Communist" w/o any justification, saying they "have failed", etc.), from IP edits and (what appear to be) single purpose accounts who have made no contributions outside of the Green Party's Wikipedia page (and those haven't exactly been helpful). The party is also a quickly-growing "alternative" party on the Left in the UK, and as such I think a long-term semi-protection is required on the page, as with UKIP's article, but for a longer period of time. – Zumoarirodoka (talk) 16:19, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for the talk page; Wikipedia is really hesitant to make talk pages inaccessible to anyone, preferring to identify and block the disruptive editors. However, I will semiprotect the article page for one week. MelanieN (talk) 18:22, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@MelanieN: I realize that, I did not make that request lightly. This is a determined sockpuppet who is a few short hours disrupted the RfC now pending, and I'm sure that theater of operations will continue. If you can't semi the page, as I think is warranted, then I would request that you monitor the talk page for that purpose. Coretheapple (talk) 18:46, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Still declined. I see that some other discussants on that page feel that the subject SHOULD be able to participate there, provided they use an IP rather than a sock. Semi-protection would prevent that. --MelanieN (talk) 18:59, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Articles about Classification and ratings

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Article Motion picture rating system had to be semi-protected due to ongoing disrutpion by an anonymous editor with the IP 2602:306:341f:34b0:X:X:X:X. The disruption has now spread to Movie and Television Review and Classification Board and Mobile software content rating system. This is no content dispute, this is the insertion of deliberate factual errors that directly contradict the sources in the article. My repeated requests for a source for these "updates" have been ignored. Not much point blocking the IP because it is dynamic so article protection seems the only option at this stage.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Recent sockpuppetry and IP-hopping, block evasion. Banned editor (please see Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Tirgil34) returned to this article again and now uses multiple IPs to falsify the content. Same edits, same false/pov content, same behavior. Over 35 disruptive edits on April 14 2015. He plays a "Good hand Bad Hand" tactic. One IP inserts false content, other IP removes them. This is his tactic to insert his disruptive edits on targeted articles. A temporary semi-protection is necessary because he use different IP ranges, flood-type edits, and disruptive changes to evade. By temporary semi-protection, other editors can watch, compare last protected revision, and report his activities. Zyma (talk) 04:59, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: In recent months IP editors have bloated the classification table with examples (from a couple to about a dozen). I started a discussion at Talk:British_Board_of_Film_Classification#Rating_examples to debate the issue but it has been ignored. A suggestion at WP:ANI#What exactly should an editor do if they are constantly reverted without discussion? was to get page protection. I appreciate there is not heavy disruption on the article but if the page is semi-protected it may persuade the editors to join the discussion on the talk page.

Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. Lord Chunshen‎ has been protected three times in the past year because of persistent IP socks of the blocked User:ProfessorJane, but the socks return each time the block expired. The socks have also been active on Huang (surname), which was previously undetected, calling Lord Chunshen a king, Huang (state) a kingdom, and Huang a "royal" and "imperial" surname. (Huang (state) is still under protection). Zanhe (talk) 23:34, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

{{RFPP|aiv}} Nakon 04:26, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Nakon: Please check the facts again. The user has been blocked since 2010, but has been using dynamic IPs to evade blocks. Did you notice every time they edit, the IP is different? See SPI page. AIV and ANI are useless for IP hopping vandals. -Zanhe (talk) 04:34, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The IPs are generally close enough where a rangeblock would be effective. If a rangeblock doesn't fix this issue, I can semiprotect the pages. Nakon 04:36, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Nakon: The IPs are not close in this case. The user is apparently using some kind of VPN service that uses IPs from all over the world. See the page history of Lord Chunshen and Huang (state), both of which have been protected multiple times. -Zanhe (talk) 04:42, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The IPs are within /16s. If the disruption continues after these ranges are blocked, please let me know and I will add semiprotection to these pages. Nakon 04:45, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Nakon: They're not within single /16s. On Huang (surname), for example, the vandal has used 43.249.130.193, 128.90.107.101, 128.90.115.126, 103.251.67.201 in the last few days alone. And I've dealt with ProfessorJane long enough to know that they'll immediately come back with new IPs when old ones are blocked. Besides, I don't know any administrator who would block an entire /16 range with tens of thousands of IPs just to protect two pages. It's much easier to semiprotect the pages themselves. -Zanhe (talk) 04:57, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I'll leave this to another admin then, because I don't feel a protection is necessary at this time. Nakon 06:20, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To _dk (talk), please refrain from pushing your pov. It is irrelevant whether or not he was alive, the fact remains that he was the ruler of the kingdom and the indisputable historical fact is that Cao Cao's official title is Emperor Wu of Wei and as such it should be in the article because it is a historical fact. And it serves a great injustice to readers when you vandalize the page your pov pushing. Please confirm that Cao Cao was the Emperor Wu of Wei from this source:

Temporary semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism and edit warring. TITUSIIX (talk) 14:21, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am seeking temporary protection of these two pages in response to the bullying behavior of [anglicanus]. I am trying to populate these pages with factual, neutral and meaingful information but this user is preventing me from doing so. I am acting well within the limits of Wikipedia's policy but this user continues to accuse me of COI violations and I do not understand how that is possible. TITUSIIX (talk) 14:21, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is no "bullying" going on here by me. There is also no "high level of IP vandalism and edit warring" involved. I notified the editor what seemed to be very obvious Conflict of Interest editing and advised stopping but my advice was ignored. I then informed the other editor that I would be taking further action. I have already raised the other editor's behaviour on the ANI page. The editor is determined to pursue any way possible to circumvent any restrictions on COI-related editing - including leaving warnings on my talk page in order to intimidate. For an apparently "new" editor there seems to be a lot of extremely quickly acquired knowledge on how to do such things. It's all very suspicious. If it walks and talks like a duck ... Anglicanus (talk) 14:53, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary full protection: - Requesting full protection of these pages for about 3-6 months. First, there are lots of block-evading IPs from Hong Kong (socks of Chowkatsun9) and some block-evading IPs from the Philippines (socks of PogiJmon). Second, it seems socks are creating accounts, waiting the four days then making ten quick edits to get around the semi-protection, then continuing with POV pushing and disruption on theses pages. However, if full protection is granted I'm certain they will move to the last available page Andy Gibb. These pages do not have heavy traffic so it seems easy to monitor edit requests. Short related discussion [54] Mlpearc (open channel) 00:22, 25 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is a very long-running problem. If you look at the edit history of each article you can see that about 90% of the edits by quantity are from sock accounts and sock IPs, followed by the reversion of same.

Protection expired today and has already seen one count of future episode predictions added, the attempted removal of a contestant (which resulted in the entire page messing up) and a series of back and forth insignificant tweaks between IP's.

Semi-protection: This article has been been vandalized on several occasions. But the main reason I am requesting protection is the complexity of the rules and the discussions. We have a long list of rules listed out on each section for what belongs there and we've had a lot of discussions concerning different aspects of the article. Many new and IP users are not familiar with these and constantly revert good edits, add content that shouldn't be there or remove content that shouldn't be there.
