Full protection: Persistent vandalism – Repeated vandalism attempts over protracted period from unregistered IPs. Malicious editors only targeting specific important sections of the page, dealing with history and demographics. Request full protection since semi protection has not worked earlier. Intellectualyo (talk) 11:36, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Non-administrator comment: Intellectualyo, doesn't it under semi-protection before? i think semi-protection should be reinstated in the article since it was removed by full protection. In fact that majority of vandalism comes from multiple IP users. 180.244.146.59 (talk) 12:20, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Hard Candy (film)

Temporary Semi-protection: High level of contended IP edits related to Elliot Page recently coming out as transgender. Wikipedia has not reached a consensus on naming conventions for past works for instances like this (See Talk:Elliot_Page#Proposal_for_RfC). This debate only started today and we already have over 7 IP editors reverting each other over the matter. Suggest temporary protection for all films starring Page in the meantime.

Titoo

Temporary semi-protection: 1 month. Non-logged-in editor tried to hijack redirect 3 times, last time was after creating Draft:Titoo – Har Jawaab Ka Sawaal Hu. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 05:19, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected Note: this page is a redirect, not the article itself. — Maile (talk) 16:09, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
I have no idea what is going on here. The redirect, BTW, had a copyvio notice on it - which I've never seen on a redirect. Anyway, somebody else pick it up from here if I erred. Thanks. — Maile (talk) 17:08, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
@Maile66: 1) it looks like a bot flagged a revision as a potential copyvio in the logs[1] which is why an editor might have put {{db-copyvio}} and, after that was declined, {{copyvio-revdel}} on it, 2) I don't think full protection is required, semi or, if you prefer, extended-confirmed is in order. I'm not sure that it needs 6 months of protection either, but I wouldn't argue with 6 months of semi- or extended-confirmed. davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 19:36, 1 December 2020 (UTC) fixed typo davidwr/(talk)/(contribs) 20:24, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Davidwr I changed it to 3 months semi-which does seem better. — Maile (talk) 19:41, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Kaylee Bryant

Temporary semi-protection: Continued WP:BLP vandalism here, just like the last time I asked for protection a few days ago – as soon as this came off the last semi-protection it has started up again. And just like I warned in my last report, it doesn't look like the vandal is going to drop this. So a longer period of semi-protection is needed this time. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 07:32, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Neera Tanden

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – She was just named as OMB director-to-be in the Biden administration so the page is getting more (unwelcome) attention than usual. Considering that this was semi-ed not too long ago, perhaps a month or two would be appropriate?. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 03:28, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Declined I'm not clear what the BLP policy violations are. There are about four pages of edits just from today (though around 80% of them are by you) so I haven't been able to go through each and every edit but, from a robust sample, I haven't seen anything other than content disagreements. Again, though, given the sheer volume of edits I may have missed something. In any case, since you seem to be reverting everyone's edits it seems like the situation, if there is one, is under control. Chetsford (talk) 05:19, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
While you're right that I and other editors have been able to catch them, edits such as Special:Diff/991542265, Special:Diff/991643796, Special:Diff/991603867 are all unsourced additions to this controversial BLP. It's getting a bit tiresome to deal with these, to be honest, but I understand your reluctance. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 05:36, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Non-administrator comment I agree with Ymblanter because majority of distruptive editing and vandalism was done by IP users, so semi-protection needs to apply. Unless there are vandalism by autoconfirmed users, the protection can be extends. 36.76.227.95 (talk) 08:27, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Pending changes: A two week old article, all edits since creation have been vandalism [5][6][7]. – Thjarkur (talk) 21:20, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for your diligence in reporting this. Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Given the nature of some of the edits, I don't think we can apply a level of protection that would cause the allegations contained within the edits to be disseminated to, and viewed by, the PC reviewers. For that reason I'm inclined to err on the side of caution and semi- this one. Chetsford (talk) 05:28, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

List of HBO Max original programming

Unprotection: This article has a high edit rate and most edits are constructive, sometimes leaving a backlog of unaccepted edits. I see no evidence of persistent vandalism or BLP violations. Can we try removing pending changes? (I asked the protecting admin but it seems they are only here occasionally). --Pontificalibus 08:50, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) I would not advise lifting the Pending Changes for this article mainly due to it having a history of unsourced content being added (which was the reason Pending Changes was applied in the first place.) There are other similar lists that are under indefinite Pending Changes or Semi-Protection for similar reasons. IP edits still need to be reviewed for unsourced changes like this one from two days ago. While the page has a high edit rate most of them are autoconfimed and higher accounts which the software automatically accepts (unless an IP or non-confirmed edit needs reviewed.) Alucard 16❯❯❯ chat? 13:52, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Lots of articles are subject to the addition of unsourced content, that doesn't mean they should have permanent pending changes protection. The pending changes policy does not list this as valid reason. Aside from the three listed reason it is only permitted for articles "subject to significant but temporary vandalism or disruption". The protection was added to this article over a year ago, perhaps there was a temporary problem then, but now is time to try removing it.----Pontificalibus 14:37, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
Pending changes protection can be applied on an indefinite basis if there is long term disruption. Based on the last six months I'm personally not convinced that pending changes should be lifted. Also the page is not causing an undue burden on PCRs. Alucard 16❯❯❯ chat? 15:13, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
  • As the protecting admin (who indeed is only here occasionally) I would say the low bar for pending changes protection is still being met. But I have no objections to that being overridden by another admin if needs be. No need to check with me. Cheers Fish+Karate 16:29, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Disruption in the last 6-9 months was high enough to warrant further pending-changes protection. No undue burden on PCRs. Lectonar (talk) 11:16, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Divya Khosla Kumar

Indefinite semi-protection: Content dispute/edit warring - Looking at the history, there's been constant edit warring in regards to her birth year for the past few months. For years it was listed as 1981 and now people keep changing it to 1987. There are more sites stating it to be 1981 as well as a couple of articles that imply that's the correct year. I brought this up on her talk page and even edited the main article with those sources and even provided explanation. But someone reverted it back to how it was before. I think whoever keeps changing the birth year to 1987 is the same person under a different IP. For whatever reason, people always want celebrities to be younger.108.215.9.37 (talk) 06:43, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Bihari Rajput

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Anony20 putting image of Kunwar Singh on caste article. Sitush has objected to put image of notable person on caste and community articles. Does a maharaja represent even a tiny spec of population? He is an exception not the rule. He has his own page and the image is present. Do we put Scindia dynasty notables on Kunbi page? The people of India State series is not WP:RS. Also, see User:Sitush/Common#Castelists.

I have to interrupt you here as you have mentioned me. This is not WP:VANDAL, I had only updated the image on Bihari Rajput. Regarding your concern we have already discussed it on talk page[9][10] I think there are no further arguments left to object my image. Further I feel I don't have to mention that you recently nominated my upload for speedy-deletion from wikicommons with misleading quotes to get rid of this image anyhow, but it didn't happened.Anony20 (talk) 17:46, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Image of notable ppl not allowed on caste pages.Here in this comment u said: it represents Kunwar Singh[13]...I m reverting it to stable version.

You should also have a look at User:Sitush/Common#Castelists, image uploaded by me is of a group not an individual. Your above query is already answered on talk page[14][15]. Further, the image you uploaded[16] and trying to upload again goes against long standing consensus, see User:Sitush/Common#Castelists it states if you upload an image of living persons as representatives of a community (see "Group of unverified people with semiclothed man and children" which you uploaded as Bihari Rajputs[17]), then you should cite the source where they self identify themselves as belonging to that community.Anony20 (talk) 18:43, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
Plz...it is a group of notable freedom fighter including Kunwar Singh which donot represent a caste comprising poor and illiterate people.I would also like if you share the link from where you have taken the image. Its a historic image and you certainly haven't taken it considering its age.PS: You have yourself claimed that person in centre is Kunwar Singh.tag admin Maile66= see; the guy in this link says that it is image of Kunwar Singh and his attendants but admant at keeping an individual's image on caste article. [ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/991333465]Heba Aisha (talk) 21:54, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
As pointed out above "a group of unverified people with semi clothed man and children" doesn't represent the community in anyways. Again the image added by me is not of an individual. Consciously adding "Illiterate" and "Poor" for a community in general shows your biased nature against that community.Anony20 (talk) 03:45, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. I see someone has started two RFCs (on the image issue) on the talk page. I suggest the RFCs be consolidated and no further changes to the images in the article while the RFC plays out. It looks like there haven't been any reverts since the first RFC was started, so protection doesn't appear warranted at this time. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 17:14, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I know I just requested page protection on this yesterday and was denied, apparently due to lack of diffs, but in the past hour there's been Special:Diff/991763395, Special:Diff/991766605, and Special:Diff/991769394. It's getting very annoying to keep up with this. AleatoryPonderings (???) (!!!) 18:57, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Of the three difs you presented, only one was clearly in bad faith, one was damaging but arguably good faith, and one seemed like good faith but misguided. She's in the news due to her being Biden's pick for OMB, and one of his few controversial picks so far. That's bound to attract attention, but most of the recent edits I reviewed (aside from the three you pointed out) are constructive attempts to figure out how to present information on her. I would not be surprised if things devolve to the point where protection is required, but at this time it doesn't seem necessary. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 17:24, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected indefinitely. Virtually all recent edits are IP, and are a mix of constructive and unconstructive. I see little true vandalism, mostly good-faith but poor quality edits. I don't want to shut out constructive IP edits on such a poorly-maintained page, but the page definitely needs more eyes on it, so pending changes protection seems a better fit than semi-protection. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 17:43, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment For this and the rest of your reports, I only see edits from one or two different IPs. That doesn't qualify as "persistent disruption." Mass protection is not a good solution here. OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:05, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
Ohnoitsjamie, what is the solution, then? The IPs are edit-warring, and there are multiple IPs involved for most of these. IPs trying to add successors to infoboxes has been a recurring problem since the elections, and PC protection has already been applied to many articles for this reason. ― Tartan357 Talk 15:09, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
It's better handled at the user level; 24.128.124.9 has been warned, and hasn't made any changes to the infoboxes since then. Same with 68.198.171.129. Are we going to semi-protect the articles of every politician with a successor for 3 months every time there is an election? OhNoitsJamie Talk 15:14, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
Ohnoitsjamie, well, I suggested PC protection, not semi. And I'm just following what's already been done. I came across several of these articles that were already PC protected with histories similar to those I've reported here. I don't think you need to start with 3 months. I'm running into this regularly on many pages from many different IPs, and it's quite disruptive. If you feel that blocking IPs is a better approach, then that's fine with me, too (if they repeat the edits, of course). I don't have a strong interest in what's done here. I've had requests like these approved before, so I thought they were an acceptable remedy. ― Tartan357 Talk 15:19, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Panamint Springs

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – There is an outstanding AfD about this article. Those who want it deleted insist that there is no such community, that there is only a resort there. One of those editor re-wrote the article to be about the resort only, and request that it be moved, thus usurping the function of the AfD. The article should be fully protected until the AfD is closed, at which time any changes can be made. Beyond My Ken (talk) 21:06, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

BMK doens't seem to get the facts that the only thing at this location is the Panamint Springs Resort: a motel, campsite, restaurant, as service station, all owned and operated by the same people who live on-site. This is not a community in which there is a resort, it's just the resort, as supported by the sources I have added. Why is BMK removing sources [21][22][23][24]? If protected it should maintain the current version with these sources. Reywas92Talk 21:44, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

@GeometryDashFan12: No, I meant full protection. The standard procedure is to fully protect articles so the edit war stops and people are forced to discuss the issue. If people are still edit warring here, the situation really isn't fixed. NoahTalk 18:25, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
Appears the main instigators of the edit war have come to an agreement so I guess this can be ignored. NoahTalk 18:36, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Note: I protected and then reversed myself. There is a lot happening on that page. Not all of the IP edits were unconstructive. Reinstated pending changes, but that might need to be removed due to the shear volume of edits. If anyone has nay particular problem with content, they should discuss on the talk page. Two or more content disputes going on, and it is unfair to prevent non autoconfirmed edits. May need to go full protection instead. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 20:50, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

@Ymblanter: What do you think? --Deepfriedokra (talk) 21:05, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

@Deepfriedokra: We are still clearly on the tail of activity after Maradona's death, which even spills into other articles. I would may be add a short semi (like 3 days) and hope that the disruptive activity would almost disappear by the time the block expires, and would also keep pending changes in place, again hoping that after three days the volume of edits would be not so high.

@R.G.: Y'all need to try harder. By my count you are already past WP:3RR. Protecting the article would prevent those not engaged in this dispute from editing it.That's not fair. What would be fairer would be to partial block the disputants from the article. Cheers, --Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:46, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
The user who submitted this request R.G. is in conflict with other editors of this page who oppose his repeated changes of gender-based pronouns. He has not supported the change in the Talk page but continues to push for an unsubstantiated edit. --GimmeChoco44 (talk) 16:06, 7 December 2020 (UTC)

It was not unsubstantiated. Neil Gaiman had always depicted Desire as an It in In-series dialogue. Altering this article smacks of unwarranted revisionism on the part of someone who apparently wants to alter the work to fit modern values rather than seeing this work as a product of the time it was made. -R.G.

Declined First, I am not permitted to apply protection due to "high interest" in an article per WP:PREEMPTIVE. Second, it's not even clear that there's really all that high interest in this article. It's averaging around 1500 pageviews per day, or only about half of what Def Jam Recordings or Comcast (two unprotected articles) are trafficking. And I'm inclined to believe the vast majority of those pageviews are coming from a small group of about 20 highly-engaged editors who are basically writing an article for each other to read (the name of the article is such that it's not really discoverable).

Ottawa South United

Temporary semi-protection: IP user is attempting Good-faith edits, but is in effect removing all of the relevant information. Based on Wikipedia Notability criteria from WP:FOOTY, youth soccer clubs are not notable; however, this club has a semi-professional club that is eligible for the club which makes the semi-pro team specifically notable. The article was about that semi-pro team and included a small blurb about the youth club's history. The IP user is repeatedly deleting all references to the semi-pro team and making it fully about the youth club (essentially turning it from a article that meets notability requirements into one that fails them). Another user reverted and then I reverted as well, before being re-reverted. I left a message on their talk page and in the edit summary explaining this, but they are using different IPs, so may not have seen the message. In addition, while the information being added is, I believe to be accurate, they are not adding any references (they are actually deleting them) - In fact a chunk of the deleted material already included what they are adding, but had sources, while the new material is deleting those sources. I believe semi-protection would help because if they create an account, then I could leave a talk message on a page they will see (since currently it is using changing IPs). I am not opposed to the information being added, just that the information they are removing should not be removed because it is specifically what qualifies the subject for the article.

Remove SALT This is a article that was salted 10 years ago for repeated re-creation. (The admin is retired, so i am posting here). The article subject does not warrant a full page, but i don't see the harm in having a redirect to Z-Boys, this is the biggest team in early skateboarding history and it would be nice to have a redirect for all of the members, it's reasonable for people to watch Dogtown and Z-Boys and search up the members. I don't think this article is highly contentious enough to leave it as a salt - a redirect would fit it nice - but even if the SALT must remain - surely it'd be better just to have a protected redirect. This is my first time with something like this, sorry if i messed anything up and made it harder for anyone. If not, that's ok too. Thanks, again. GuzzyG (talk) 11:12, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

Non-admin comment: Do we need to protect 7 articles and a user talk into "full protection"? In full protection, only the admins can allowed to edit these specific articles, which means all the registered and experienced users (like myself) cannot edit those pages. Also, the all user talk pages like User talk:PJ Santos, cannot be protected as it is not an article. For me, there's no need to protect these pages as the incidents were only minor.

Here is most recent request for protection. Another user is again making edits with no sources or delete sources. As said in first request, this violates privacy, ineligible document research with unpublished articles & evidence as ‘source’ it will probably continue. Without protection this acts of editing with defamation, edits with lies, and falsehoods will continue. Also requst talk page protection as that page is being vandal as well. Bezeq2 (talk) 14:09, 15 December 2020 (UTC)

Note that this relates to a dispute currently at AN. OP has removed content by other users (in otherwise good standing) at that talk page, and even the report at AN. Not necessarily prejudice against the request for semiprotection, or indication of wrongdoing by any particular party, but the responding admin should probably be aware of possible nuances.

Dispute resolution requires that there be another editor. But there is no consistent other editor, it's just a long series of drive by IP editors who make no attempt to discuss it. They just remove factual, cited information because it contains a "bad word", and replace it with vague/ambiguous terminology. One editor discussed on the talk page, but I do not believe that they made good arguments, and they never responded further. drt1245 (talk) 04:25, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

That's.... interesting.

I agree that indefinite protection may be necessary). By the way, could you have a look at the report above this one (the one about Zee News and Aaj Tak) and tell me if the vandalism involved warrants any page protection?

Aloha from Hawaii Via Satellite

Semi-protection: or pending changes: As it can be seen in multiple discussion points in the article's talk page, several edit conflicts appeared throughout the years regarding two basic issues: The number of viewers the broadcast had, and conflicts regarding which was the first concert to be transmitted via satellite.

Plenty of edits on the page seem to have been made by IP addresses in good faith [55]. Nonetheless, the constant reverting of edits among users does not seem to be constructive. (besides of the one stated in the talk page, more can be seen throughout the page's history). It happened in the past, and it is going to happen in the future when an editor decides to again arbitrarily change information. I cited recently multiple sources in the article to clarify the issues, and I do think it is simpler to protect it, and to have an open discussion with the IP editors in case they desire to make changes.--GDuwenHoller! 21:52, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations. General Ization Talk 03:27, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. If any part of the BLP policy is being violated, that would be WP:BLPPRIVACY, I guess... by everyone who re-adds the information. So if "BLP policy violations" were the issue here, I'd need to undo your edit and full-protect the page... ~ ToBeFree (talk) 03:51, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protection - this page experiences mass-deletion of content on a regular basis, going back years. Changes are made by different, random IPs, though this is likely the same person with COI/CIR issues. Protection was requested here 12 days ago (not the 1st time) and 72hr pp was granted, yet another mass-deletion occurred shortly after it expired. For the sake of stability, indefinite pp would be preferred, but if not, then long-term pp, at least 1 year, is req'd as this would both cut down on disruption and hopefully steer this person towards account creation and tp engagement.

Also, it shouldn't say "persistent vandalism", more like "persistent addition of unsourced content". Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 11:55, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

Bad request. Requester himself is the disruptive editor repeatedly violating WP:REVEXP and WP:FIES by re-adding red links and unlinked entries to a "navigation template". The purpose of navigation template itself is to navigate through related links, per WP:NAV: A navigation template is a grouping of links used in multiple related articles to facilitate navigation between those articles. The Banner's problem is personal choice, hence he has no explanation for his action. Go to talk page instead of blatantly reverting, and there's no "multiple IPs" they are all mine, it automatically changes between IPv6 and IPv4. 157.46.180.95 (talk) 10:59, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

Move protection: a handful of administrators (myself tangentially included) are in a slow-motion move war over whether this article should be "David" or "Dave", which is stupid. Courtesy ping Necrothesp and Muboshgu. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:44, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

I don't know that one page move on December 3 that was undone on December 17 qualifies as a "move war". – Muboshgu (talk) 19:59, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
The underlying dispute here reads to me as a fandom dispute, which often move slowly until a well-meaning editor changing some seemingly insignificant detail (like whether the actor's name is "Dave" or "David") sets off a massive conflict. An experienced editor coming across a move that was discussed briefly but ultimately not formally challenged and reverting it two weeks after the fact on procedural grounds is exactly the sort of edit that sets these things off. Personally when I see something like this I often move-protect preemptively until someone starts a proper discussion - move protections are pretty lightweight considering that repeatedly moving pages around can be incredibly disruptive. My apologies for initially labelling the dispute as vandalism, that was a Twinkle misclick. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:18, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
I've made an dummy edit on the target page, preventing its overwriting by non-administrators. 🙂

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. There does not appear to be a high degree of disruptive IP editing on this article. There is only one IP edit so far this month, and although it did not cite a source in the text, it did in the edit summary. There was one IP edit in October, and one in September. One IP edit a month doesn't seem disruptive enough to warrant protection. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 21:25, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

Normally waiting and seeing and asking at WP:BLPN would be a good strategy but I think something stronger at this time of year (when those watching the article might be distracted) is appropriate. It doesn't really matter what the source says—naming individuals in such a short article is undue although that can be revisited if a conviction occurs (apparently there is no charge at the moment).

Timeline of BBC One

Semi-protection: There's been a longish slow-motion EW at this article between Rillington and an IP editor 82.3.149.129. Both are to be faulted for that, but Rillington has at least tried to use dispute resolution, but could not for the lack of talk page discussion. I (as the DR volunteer who shut down his DRN request) advised him on my user talk page to stop reverting, improve the sourcing for his desired edit, and to try to get the IP editor to engage in discussion on the article talk page. I gave the IP editor the same advice about engaging in talk. But when Rillington posted to the article talk page, the IP editor responded by removing Rillington's attempt at discussion from the article talk page. It's time for the nonsense to stop. Rillington is willing to work within the wikisystem, but the IP editor needs the nudge that semi-protection would provide. Best regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 19:29, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

(as 2601:3c5:8200:97e0:b03e:e0d7:fe7c:7a1b and 73.5.92.146 are clearly the same person, and WP:SEMI allows semi-protection when IP address hopping happens in a dispute, and additionally with WP:ONUS in mind, one could argue for a (longer-term-)semiprotection. When I used full-protection in such cases, it usually resulted in drama)

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP editor edit-warring with other editors. Sdrqaz (talk) 21:24, 26 December 2020 (UTC)

Edits by one or more IPs within a limited address range have attempted to remove an 848 byte section of this article at least 28 times over the past few months; they have been reverted by many different editors, as the material is reliably cited and agreed to be so by all those editors, but not by the IP. I should have thought it more than time that either this article were protected or that IP range were blocked: or both. The editing is at the very least disruptive and clearly against consensus.

Month-long semi-protection - A zealous anon-IP has twice made wholesale contentious edits, including removing valid WP:RS cites that do not support his contention that the subject is "a liar." He has been reverted by two different registered editors. After initially edit-warring, he finally followed BRD ... yet rather than try to reach consensus, all he's doing is tell us our edits back to the status quote are all wrong and he's going to do whatever he wants to.

Unprotected. Honestly, Airplaneman, you could have just unprotected it yourself. After nine years, I can't even remember what vandalism caused me to protect it. :P Reaper Eternal (talk) 22:49, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
(edit conflict) Comment (note that I am INVOLVED with that article): At the time of the indefinite protection, the article had been repeatedly vandalized for years with references to a joke from the movie Anchorman. I agree it isn't likely that that will continue nowadays if the article is unprotected. I would advise against PC protection unless it proves to be needed. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:53, 26 December 2020 (UTC) P.S.

Declined – for the third time in 24 hours, there is no disruptive activity to justify protection. There is only one IP user involved, and there has been no attempt to warn, engage in discussion, or report to the appropriate noticeboards. This is neither vandalism nor disruptive editing. Please acquaint yourself with the relevant Wikipedia policies instead of repeatedly asking for protection when protection would be an inappropriate measure.

Indefinite full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. Steven (Editor) (talk) 02:37, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

  • This has to be one of the most egregious efforts to engage in an edit war. User:Steven (Editor) has been edit warring on this article, demanding that other editors engage in a discussion on the talk page, which I have done, and which this editor simply refuses to do. All of the issues that the editor has raised, no matter how pedantic or trivial, have been addressed at the talk page. Now Steven (Editor) seeks to "win" his bizarre edit war by asking for indefinite full protection. May I request that this RPP be denied with prejudice. Alansohn (talk) 02:48, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
Alansohn, you do realise I am currently replying to you on the talk page (I'm still writing!). This article requires full protection while the content in dispute is discussed. Steven (Editor) (talk) 02:58, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
  • This is quite possibly the slowest dumb edit war I've ever seen. We have something like 10 reverts over the past 2 years, regarding whether a template giving a reference's details should be placed in the infobox or the lead. Full-protection is overkill; page-banning both editors for a week might be reasonable. Or Steven could just use the talk page before asking for protection. power~enwiki (π, ν) 03:06, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
Yep, I agree, it is the slowest dumb edit war haha. Responding to the additional silly comments by Alansohn above: I have not "demanding that other editors engage in a discussion on the talk page", the content dispute here is between me and you, we are reverting each others edits! As for "which this editor simply refuses to do" nope, I don't refuse to discuss on the talk page, see the talk page for my response. I don't "seeks to 'win'", I asked for full protection in case you revert the changes which is what you did after initiating the discussion. Steven (Editor) (talk) 04:11, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: BLP policy violations – Extended may sound extreme, but there are repeated and sustained attacks to this page by various users, who revert any useful edit like removing non-RS sources like the subject's own wiki 'nithyanandapedia' and other blogs of godmen. These users also insert various POV statements, like him having 'yogic powers', and that he is being unfairly hunted (he is a wanted man in India for charges of abduction and rape). He has a large following and so I expect attacks against this page to be persistent, but I've asked only for temp now, permanent would be overkill. Wilhelm Tell DCCXLVI converse | fings wot i hav dun 15:42, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

I know this is unusual, but I really support this recommendation. The page has huge problems right now, and I think a COI proposal should probably happen tomorrow (if Wilhem doesn't then I certainly shall). Another use tried to trim some of the issues down, and added a COI template, and it was pretty much instantly reverted with more unreliable fluff added. This article brims with blogs, potentially fake (potentially real? court documents, ridiculous claims like "He has published 500 books" (there are 4 in the bibliography). Over the past 60 days, this page has accrued 90,000 views. ImaginesTigers (talk) 19:59, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
Who would be the target of ECP as opposed to semi? More than one user? Samsara 20:04, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
It’s tough to say right now. I'm going to have to do a more thorough review tomorrow. There is definitely more than one, but the editor currently removing good faith tags and undoing clean-up attempts is User:Ik.Kaluha. I'll also add that the page is currently PC'd, and these issues are still very prominent (and getting worse). ImaginesTigers (talk) 20:14, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Additionally, Ik.Kaluha is partial blocked from the page for a matching duration of 3 months, as the only autoconfirmed user that would have necessitated ECP. I have not chosen to label this action as ARBIPA enforcement, but others may want to consider whether that lens applies. Ik.Kaluha may require further sanctions. -- ferret (talk) 20:43, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment: This request seems like a disingenuous attempt to maintain the article in the filer’s preferred version. This is not the place to rebut your claim that the images are “hardcore pornography”, which I’m more than happy to do on the article talk page. Requesting extended confirmed protection based on my two edits is at best an unnecessary overreaction, and at worst an abuse of process to shut out contributions that the filer alone (which hardly constitutes consensus against) finds objectionable. Smegchud (talk) 08:13, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
Three edits. You need consensus for your additions for them to stick. And reviewing admin: View the history and diffs and judge for yourself. Crossroads -talk- 08:24, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

The Alienist (TV series)

Longer-term pending changes protection – Long-term pattern of IPs (likely the same editor from roving IPs) making WP:DE contra-MOS (in this case MOS:TVCAST) edits to this artilce. As this is a long-term problem (it's been going on since the show's first season), I'd rather have a longer-term pending changes protection (like, say, 1 year) than a semi-protection which almost certainly won't be for a long enough term to do any good. Pending changes will hopefully be enough to shut this editor down for good. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 02:23, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Article wizard/Redirects

Indefinite semi-protection: This page was recently created to replace Wikipedia:Article wizard/version1/Redirect, which used the old wizard (see discussion here). The old page is semi-protected and this one should be at least that as well (if not TEP to match the rest of the wizard) so that it is not disrupted by test edits from new editors. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 00:03, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Previous one had 133 incoming links, this one has 113. These are not typically seen as being above the threshold to merit TEP. On the other hand, if I understand correctly, you are arguing that the page could have similar impact as a template, if vandalised. I think that argument has merit.
