Talk:Project Veritas

Talk:Project Veritas (edit | subject | history | links | watch | logs)

Moderators shut down the talk page for Project Veritas, despite there being no spam or large level of irrelevant discussion in the talk page.

The page is very controversial, so the talk page should be open for discussion, instead of shut down. 2605:B100:D42:4F92:E570:EF09:F79E:432F (talk) 08:54, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

Declined. I am the admin (not "moderator" — Wikipedia is WP:NOTAFORUM, as stated in my protection summary) who imposed the protection after it was requested on this board (diff). Anyway, the 2-week protection will automatically expire in 4 days — I don't believe you've provided convincing reasoning for why it needs to be lifted early. Note: protection was a logged AE (AP2) action (log entry). El_C 14:24, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

Impostor syndrome

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – @Malcolmxl5: I don't think PC was an appropriate response - vandalism on this is likely to continue on a sporadic but persistent basis; see also the existing protection log... Semi (likely long-term, given this is an internet meme...) would be better, IMHO. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 21:27, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

The agreement is used as a dog-whistle when discussing race and immigration policies in Singapore, despite the agreement itself containing no actual immigration policy changes.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Off an on for months IPs have been adding the same vandalism to this article, calling the team's arena a "dump".

Seo Yea-ji

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – After protection recently expired, IPs and SPAs are removing the controversy section again. – NJD-DE (talk) 11:42, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

Note: I do not protect negative WP:BLP, that has been challenged and removed especially. The content and sourcing should be discussed before being readded. . Any uninvolved admin should feel free to do what they feel is best, 'cuase when I saw it I reflexively removed it. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 14:28, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
I agree that negative BLPs are a sensitive area, however in this case the content is referenced with sources that WikiProject Korea deems reliable (Wikipedia:WikiProject Korea/Reliable sources). Also, I don't believe that starting a discussion with these editors would lead anywhere. I'm counting three SPAs and four IPs that have been warned within the last 10 days about removing the content. Only the last one showed some kind of reaction by posting a message on their talk page. When being asked why it would be nonsense false information, their reaction though was to remove the content again twice. – NJD-DE (talk) 18:12, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
Fully protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Suss it out on the talk page, please. GorillaWarfare (talk) 17:31, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected indefinitely. Long history of disruption and attempts at time-bounded protection suggest indefinite protection is appropriate here. GorillaWarfare (talk) 16:12, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Start-Up (South Korean TV series)

Semi-protection: Requesting temporary higher protection due to high levels of disruptive editing in the past week. In addition to vandalism of the cast information for reasons I cannot fathom, it appears that several new editors are trying to add an award that is unrelated to the show. The award in question is the 'Korea First Brand Award' which the lead actress won in the "Actress" category however the award does not mention the show which is clear given the purpose of the award is to recognise "brands" and not achievement in acting.

2021 West Bengal Legislative Assembly election

Temporary extended protection: The article represents the ongoing election results today (2 May 2021). It would be better to increase the protection temporarily -- DaxServer (talk) 09:36, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. El_C 11:26, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the link. I was not aware. -- DaxServer (talk) 11:43, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Tirupati (Lok Sabha constituency)

Temporary semi-protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring. The article documents a current election's voting count (2 may 2021). It would be better to protect temporarily to avoid edit warring -- DaxServer (talk) 09:40, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

@DaxServer: Where is an edit warring? I see all contribution has done by IP users, dominantly IPv6 user, and you don't even to contribute to the article editing. Edit warring only occur if two users, whenever IP or registered users, conducted revert each other's edit. 180.254.171.25 (talk) 10:01, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
As you can see from the history, the edits are done to change the number of votes being counted, which are being changed every few minutes. Until an official declaration of the results is given, the numbers are moving and is outdated the moment they are entered. Also the IP user is edit warring self-edits! I would dispute the content and see that as edit warring. -- DaxServer (talk) 10:16, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
I believe in the situation like this where IP user is edit warring against itself, temporary semi-protection should be invoked instead. 180.254.171.25 (talk) 10:37, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Changed to semi. Thanks! -- DaxServer (talk) 10:53, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Declined. I'm not seeing a problem with the IP's edits/updates (provided they aren't fabrications, which they don't appear to be). There is no edit warring — revising one's own figures in the course of frequently updating is not edit warring against oneself (not a thing, anyway). Having the most up-to-date data is a good thing, no? Soon enough, the the final numbers will be released and that would be that. But right now, again, I'm just struggling to understand why we would need to do anything. El_C 11:22, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for the explanation. -- DaxServer (talk) 11:35, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Talk:Race and intelligence

Semi-protection: There is currently an RfC on the page regarding whether or not a particular hypothesis constitutes a fringe theory.

Note: Mikehawk10, to me, this feels like effectively an appeal of sort of the remedy provided at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement#Race_and_Intelligence, and as such, goes beyond the scope of this board. I understand the mechanics of it —you wishing to amend the remedy by downgrading the protection, which indeed is what this section of RfPP is for— but, again, this simply isn't a normal protection.

My intention is to determine whether the "XN-notice" templates are suitable for bot supported auto substitution. This requires going through existing transclusions to identify pages that would need a bot exclusion. Usually, while doing that, unsubstituted transclusions are substituted, since, as a safety precaution, the bot does not work on templates with more than 100 transclusions. It also makes it easier to see which pages still need to be reviewed. --Bsherr (talk) 21:03, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

While semi-protection would help I´d think that it could turn inefficient within a couple of days as becoming autoconfirmed is not a real hurdle, considering that the vandalism is likely not linked to a single vandal but to current events which could easily spawn more of them. ...GELongstreet (talk) 22:13, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
Page protections are usually escalating: for the vast majority of pages which need protection, SP is enough (most vandals have too short of an attention span...). RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 23:20, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. We would only use ECP where semi-protection has proved insufficient. We can’t say that yet but as the errant edits all seem to be coming from IPs, semi-protection should do the job. I have semi-protected for a week after which protection will revert to PCP.

CambridgeBayWeather, thanks. Pending changes is even better as a few IP-edits over the years actually were constructive. The primary issue is (was) that something that should be an unchanging fact was constantly changing. I'll probably be back in a month as I see no reason to think this won't continue. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 13:37, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
Alexis Jazz I added a note but I didn't see a source stating her nationality. It should probably be replaced with "known professionally as Alisha Boe, is an actress in the United States." CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 13:44, 7 May 2021 (UTC)
CambridgeBayWeather, there is a discussion on the talk page but it's not very active unfortunately. (please do add your opinion, we need more people to participate) I had reverted the last two IP-edits due to misleading edit summaries. I don't think there is an absolute source for citizenship of any country, but unless she has renounced her Norwegian citizenship (for which there is also no source) she should still have that as she was born in Norway to a Norwegian mother. But that's only citizenship, she doesn't even speak Norwegian and is only known for what she did after moving to the US. That's why all this is so disputed. — Alexis Jazz (talk or ping me) 13:55, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

I don't believe the user has ceased at all, based on the edit history pattern. I requested page protection because I believe at this point talk page consensus should be a requirement for edits, since the user is replacing the entire content of the page; and requested full protection in particular so that the user doesn't get a future privilege. 197.38.46.131 (talk) 01:26, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Notes on a Conditional Form

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism from an unregistered IP editor engaging in unexplained removal of content, after having been warned several times. Taking the matter to AIV will not help since the edits appear to be made under separate IP addresses (here and here). Giacobbe talk 16:52, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Declined @(CA)Giacobbe: Are you talking about edits like this? That is very clearly explained and the IP is merely saying what the hidden comment very reasonably asserts. I do not see anything relevant on talk and the IP edits are not vandalism (WP:VAND). Johnuniq (talk) 07:23, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
@Johnuniq: Yes, I am talking about edits like this. IP removed the genre from the info with the summaries: "Please only add genres if they are backed by reliable sources" and "Include source when applying genre or its not valid". The issue is that the information is cited, four times in the proper section. There is even an entire paragraph dedicated exclusively to the info in question filled with numerous sources. This is a good article and has already undergone reference checks. How are the IP's actions "very reasonable" when they are willingly choosing to disregard the information they claim is missing? Are we now allowed to just decide to ignore things we don't agree with? Remove anything we want no matter how many times it is properly cited? What is the point of sourcing anything in the first place if a random IP can just remove it by claiming it doesn't actually exist? Giacobbe talk 14:41, 8 May 2021 (UTC)
Page protection seems sensible to me to force the IP into discussion, as their edit summary is factually contradicted by (CA)Giacobbe's, but they seem not to have noticed/understood. If the person behind this continues then some action must be taken. — Bilorv (talk) 11:16, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Template protection: High-risk template – Per 14,000+ transclusions & disruptive editing to boot.   ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf)  14:45, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

You know that "disruptive" isn't a synonym for "things I don't like"? Don't worry, I won't revert without some consensus to do so, but nothing was disrupted by this perfectly working template in either version, except that the reversals by the 3 main opponents of a previous RfC made it impossible for RfC voters to get a good look at what one of the two versions looks like on a wide variety of articles (note that these people complained when only one such article was presented on the previous RfC, which they claimed was cherrypicked). Apparently one can't do good no matter what. Alternatively, any admin brave enough to revert to my version and then protect is, is of course welcome, but I don't know if that would be a wise move (the right things isn't always the wise thing to do :-) ).

African-American Vernacular English

Indefinite semi-protection: Frequent, often racially offensive vandalism by IPs. Recent racially offensive edits include [10] and several revision-deleted edits which I cannot link here, including recent ones at 10:52, 13 April 2021; 10:51, 13 April 2021‎; and 15:10, 10 April 2021‎. Other IP vandalism is not overtly racist but still highly disruptive, e.g. [11], [12], [13], [14], [15]. Still other vandalism is simply a nuisance, e.g. [16], [17], [18]. Note that all of these examples are just from the past month! I could go on and on. Taken together, I believe that this vandalism is persistent and disruptive enough to merit semi-protection, and there does not appear to be a time horizon beyond which this level of protection will cease to be necessary.

Permanent semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – While only on a small scale, regarding just one item, this article has seen multiple bad faith edits by IP addresses in the past five years and should be protected, insofar as only logged-in users should be allowed to edit. The article has been temporarily semi-protected several times already, the last instance ended after a year, a couple of weeks ago, and as soon as the temporary semi-protection expires, the same vandal inserts the same POV again, and always anonymously. He tends to switch his IPs and/or work from IPs which are used by a plurality of people, making a block or permanent block infeasible. It has also proven impossible to discuss with the user to limit the article to 'properly sourced facts-only'. PJEckenheim (talk) 17:41, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

2021 Jerusalem clashes

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – WP:ARBPIA. This is a new article/event relating to the conflict. The Israeli government has been forcibly evicting Palestinians from their homes at an increased rate recently, leading to protests, which are then responded to with police brutality. This page has a high likelihood of turning very ugly very quickly, especially if tensions continue to escalate in the region. Blade Jogger 2049 Talk 02:31, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Comment: Do you believe that there is persistent distruptive edits by users in the article? I think that there is no reason to the article to be protected only because it is a new article, which was created a day ago. The article can only be protected if there are persistent distruptive edits, whether it is arbitration enforcement or not (see WP:NOPREEMPT). As far as i see in the edit history, there are so far only two IP edits, where only one edit that reverted and another one is a good faith edit. I also guess it needs to be moved protected instead.36.77.95.215 (talk) 02:46, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
Comment: As I understand the arbitration ruling, it is preemptive. My interpretation is that non-EC users are prohibited from editing related articles with zero exceptions. If arbitration rulings for contentious topics aren't meant to be preemptive, I admittedly don't know why they exist at all (I hope I don't sound rude, but I genuinely just don't understand that reasoning). I do not believe any of the existing edits have been disruptive. Also, you might want to double-check that you're logged in. I do agree it should probably be move protected, at least temporarily. Blade Jogger 2049 Talk 03:07, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
There is starting to be an uptick in disruptive and reverted edits on the article, possibly because it is now linked to from the Main Page. RoanokeVirginia (talk) 21:46, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Hey any admins looking at this, please protect this page. It is now featured on the main page “In the News” section. If it’s not protected now it will take hours if not days to clean up the vandalism that ‘’’will’’’ happen.

Newton's law of universal gravitation

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I've looked at all edits by IP users this year; there were 12, and they were all reverted. Mostly vandalism, but also a couple of good-faith yet misguided edits. There's also plenty of vandalism from registered users, but I think extended confirmed protection would be overkill.

I don't think the problem is ever going away, because it is a highly visible article, and in particular young students use it a lot. We can see that from the strong correlation between the pageviews and the school terms, and from the childish vandalism that appears. Tercer (talk) 08:53, 12 May 2021 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring. There has been considerable edit-warring between SPAs on this page for a few weeks now.

In my opinion the only worthwhile protection here would be WP:ECP, possibly a month. There is a steady stream of new users adding POV to the article (words such as 'terrorist' or 'peaceful' applied without qualification to one group or another group). Semiprotection wouldn't be useful because the problem is not from IPs. Full protection would stop all progress on the article. Due to the unrest in Nigeria this may become an important article. EdJohnston (talk) 03:33, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
But, due to content dispute/edit warring, temporary full protection at least a week would be necessary because of disagreement over the article's edit with well-sourced content. 36.77.95.215 (talk) 06:29, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Per Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Palestine-Israel_articles_4#ARBPIA_General_Sanctions, pre-emptive 500/30 protection is applied on all articles broadly related to the Arab-Israeli conflict. The reason is because the Palestinians are Arabs and many of Arabs are lived in Israel. 182.1.0.135 (talk) 11:20, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

Note: Arabs does not appear to refer to the Arab-Israeli conflict in any way and would seem to fall outside arbitration remedies. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 13:43, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
Declined I'm willing to say that parts of the article might fall under the "broadly construed" part of ARBPIA, but most of the current edits seem unrelated to that conflict so ECP would be too much. There might be a case for semi-protection, but there hasn't been much disruption recently so I'd rather leave it as is for now. — Wug·a·po·des​ 00:03, 12 May 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Increase protection level as more IP users are vandalising the article with about 11 cases alone yesterday so can you at least increase it to semi-protection?. SuperSkaterDude45 (talk) 15:27, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Pending changes has been applied till next year, but all non-autoconfirmed edits have been disruptive editing since pending changes was applied. A month should be a good break, and once the month is up pending changes will still be in place so at that point it can be decided if further semi protection is needed.

Template:Infobox US university ranking

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: This template was template-protected back in 2013, but it only has about 500 transclusions.

The very first line: "The British Isles are a group of islands in the North Atlantic off the north-western coast of continental Europe, consisting of the islands of Great Britain, Ireland, the Isle of Man, the Hebrides and over six thousand smaller islands."

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. Esiymbro (talk) 23:46, 13 May 2021 (UTC)

Esiymbro, some of the content you reverted appears to be sourced. Does it all need to be reverted en masse? Have you tried discussing on the talk page and with the IP editor? Fences&Windows 01:24, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
I have checked all of the IP editors' sources one by one, and a substantial part of new changes appear to be unverifiable although there are citations. I only edited out the sentences that are either unsourced or not verified in the citation. Later I checked again and there are even more problems in the content I left in place, for example the "independent Kham polities of Tibetan warrior kingdoms together with Tibetan Buddhist monastic centers" statement in the lead is also completely absent in the cited source (What is a "warrior kingdom"?). And in this section, the editors added two whole paragraphs but only two statements about Songtsen Gampo and the carved stone statues exist in the source article.
But every one of the deleted edits were reinserted by the IPs [29] and they seem to take any challenge to their version as "revisionist history"[30] - so I don't think that leaves me much room to discuss. Esiymbro (talk) 02:51, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

I agree with Fences and Windows. There is actually a content dispute regarding neutrality of the article. Someone can fully protected the page or declined it to make a dispute resolution on talk page. 110.137.160.152 (talk) 02:00, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
Declined @Jtbobwaysf: I won't take action at the moment due to the advice from Fences and windows. However, because the topic is wide-open to disruption and WP:GS/Crypto applies, I would protect if problems persist. Please notify me if that happens (after explanations on talk).

Declined @Beraniladri19: Sorry but it's too hard for a clueless admin here to know what is going on. I see someone adding stuff but there is no discussion on article talk or the user's talk showing a problem. Also, the article has never been protected (it's new) and jumping to WP:ECP would require precise evidence of a problem which should be on article talk.

2021 Kentucky Derby

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Requesting elevated protection for page and appropriate labeling regarding the controversy of its winner. The factual long and skinny is that the race's winner, Medina Spirit, was shown to test positive for a certain drug in a postrace test. Pending a positive split sample test (as footnoted on the article infobox by another user), Medina Spirit would be disqualified and Mandaloun would be the winner. The disqualification and redeclaration of the winner is not official yet, as those tests have not returned and there are other details in the matter.

Persistent edits keep changing the winner in the infobox and other users have been rolling back. Therefore, this page should be protected for a few weeks while the matter is sorted officially and the proper winner can be updated here. Mehrpw (talk) 06:17, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: The subject is a controversial character, and the article has been under attack for years - both from the subject who is known to employ trolls to whitewash his bio, and his opponents. Last time, it was semi-protected for a year, and, less than a month after protection has expired, we got this: [31]. We need to protect it indefinitely and forget about this IP editing. Since the protecting admin is likely to be attacked by the subject of the article, I would recommend that the admin who takes action does not have the real world identity easily traceable.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:58, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

Note: The protection request can be declined because Ymblanter doesn't warn IP 90.135.226.205 yet about the addition of wrong BLP information. I highly doubt about your request because generally admins like you didn't protect the article only due to just single IP behavior.

Temporary semi-protection — Or whatever change is deemed appropriate, if any. Over the past few days there have been a slew of unsourced additions and changes. I suspect they are made by the same editor who is using a VPN to IP hop, since the explanations are always the same. I have read the citations given to verify their changes, since they did not give their own sources. The verification was unsuccessful and the sources contradicted the changes, so I reverted them and clearly explained why in my edit summaries. The anonymous editor has also ignored directions to the talk page, where this should have and still could be worked out. I have started the discussion but it is clear to me that they have no intention to engage and is only interested in threatening other editors in their edit summaries with misinterpretations of Wikipedia policy.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – There has been recent back-and-forth editing on the page (such as this diff and this diff) relating to a recent event that occurred during the ongoing 2021 Israel-Palestine crisis. As pages that fall within the scope of WP:ARBPIA4, broadly construed, are subject to the 500/30 rule, the page should be protected in light of ongoing vandalism. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 06:58, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Non-administrator comment: There is a similar request for protection of various articles by various IP users (Ka'aba, Five pillars of Islam, Arabs, Arab cuisine, etc.) that stats it should be ECP due to relation with Arab or Israeli. I highly doubt this request because any article that had no clear relations with Arab-Israeli conflict will be declined unless you, IPs or other users file a new request for amendment, which seems is very reasonable. In addition, one IP that engaging distruptive edit had been blocked and if someone doing same as well, temporary semi will be suitable for it. 180.243.211.58 (talk) 07:30, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
The second IP was not blocked in this case, and repeated vandalism on pages with content relating to the WP:ARBPIA4 topic can be enforced by page protection (as well as reverts, blocks, the use of pending changes, and appropriate edit filters). It's ultimately up to the administrator, though repeated vandalism generally warrants protection. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 07:43, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Unprotection: He died at 99. Sindelar1986 (talk) 23:53, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

Question: Could you please explain how this is a valid reason to unprotect anything? -FASTILY 05:22, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
Unprotected. Fastily while the reasoning isn't great I checked and the protecting admin, Courcelles, hasn't edited since January. The article was indefinitely semi-protected in 2018 based on some oversighted edits. Even so I think that it can be removed now and see what happens.

Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy

Indefinite full protection: Hello, I am wondering if this idea will be approved, and if this is the right place to post this, where I can gain access to editing this page when fully protected, because there is continuing vandalism where now extended confirmed users are intent on posting Auston Matthews as the winner of this award, disregarding no declaration from the National Hockey League at this instance, due to two teams having three regular season games remaining that still allows a certain (though unlikely at this point) probability of a pair of players on both of those teams to surpass him. If any of this is possible, I will show gratitude, and ensure the editing right is used appropriately, as I intend on waiting until Wednesday for the league to announce the winner. Jacked14 02:35, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

  • Note: Per protection policy, Full protection cannot be indefinite and it can be used only if there are persistent edit warring/content dispute between users. As i see on page history, i don't see any effort to edit war in the article and any requests regarding indefinite full protection will be declined. In addition, full protection means that you cannot gain access to editing the article, only administrator can do this (WP:OWN). 180.243.211.58 (talk) 02:56, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

In either case, since there's no evidence of any type of discussion, the edits in question are not objectively malicious, and they're all originating from a single editor, it's not possible to apply protection at this time.

Columbus Crew SC

Move protection, 2 weeks please. Over the past two weeks the team name has changed from "Columbus Crew SC" to "Columbus SC" to now, apparently, "Columbus Crew". There's way too much going on and putting on some protection until things settle down would make sense. Especially with a new logo coming in supposedly according to the team from last night. ColeTrain4EVER (talk) 15:00, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Oppose. Columbus Crew is the official name now, and by FAR the WP:COMMONNAME minus the SC, so there's no reason why a move should be held up. The nominator cites no policy nor guideline as to why the move-protect should be made, either. Tom Danson (talk) 16:59, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
There's been three names in two weeks and the last move was done without a consensus. The new logo wasn't on the kits last week but it was used in advertising. Now another new logo is coming. It's not fully WP:TOOSOON but there's so much mess here. If anything, if the page is moved to "Columbus Crew" no SC I still ask for protection after that so we don't get into an edit war.

Declined First of all, indefinite full protection is definitely not going to happen. :-) I've only applied indefinite full protection to an article maybe twice over the years that I've been an administrator here. Both were in extreme circumstances where they were needed. This does not count as a situation where it's needed. Second, I don't see enough disruption on this article to merit protection at this time. Remember that protection is applied in a reactive measure, not a preventative measure. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 10:34, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Since these are just IP editors extended confirmed protection isn't necessary.

Declined First of all, indefinite full protection is definitely not going to happen. :-) I've only applied indefinite full protection to an article maybe twice over the years that I've been an administrator here. Both were in extreme circumstances where they were needed. This does not count as a situation where it's needed. Second, I don't see enough disruption on this article to merit protection at this time.

Columbus Crew SC

Move protection, 2 weeks please. Over the past two weeks the team name has changed from "Columbus Crew SC" to "Columbus SC" to now, apparently, "Columbus Crew". There's way too much going on and putting on some protection until things settle down would make sense. Especially with a new logo coming in supposedly according to the team from last night. ColeTrain4EVER (talk) 15:00, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Oppose. Columbus Crew is the official name now, and by FAR the WP:COMMONNAME minus the SC, so there's no reason why a move should be held up. The nominator cites no policy nor guideline as to why the move-protect should be made, either. Tom Danson (talk) 16:59, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
There's been three names in two weeks and the last move was done without a consensus. The new logo wasn't on the kits last week but it was used in advertising. Now another new logo is coming. It's not fully WP:TOOSOON but there's so much mess here. If anything, if the page is moved to "Columbus Crew" no SC I still ask for protection after that so we don't get into an edit war.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – There has been recent back-and-forth editing on the page (such as this diff and this diff) relating to a recent event that occurred during the ongoing 2021 Israel-Palestine crisis. As pages that fall within the scope of WP:ARBPIA4, broadly construed, are subject to the 500/30 rule, the page should be protected in light of ongoing vandalism. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 06:58, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Non-administrator comment: There is a similar request for protection of various articles by various IP users (Ka'aba, Five pillars of Islam, Arabs, Arab cuisine, etc.) that stats it should be ECP due to relation with Arab or Israeli. I highly doubt this request because any article that had no clear relations with Arab-Israeli conflict will be declined unless you, IPs or other users file a new request for amendment, which seems is very reasonable. In addition, one IP that engaging distruptive edit had been blocked and if someone doing same as well, temporary semi will be suitable for it. 180.243.211.58 (talk) 07:30, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
The second IP was not blocked in this case, and repeated vandalism on pages with content relating to the WP:ARBPIA4 topic can be enforced by page protection (as well as reverts, blocks, the use of pending changes, and appropriate edit filters). It's ultimately up to the administrator, though repeated vandalism generally warrants protection. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 07:43, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
User(s) blocked: 203.109.40.182 (talk · contribs) blocked by Luk3.. Just because that IP mentioned Israel in the article does not make it part of the Palestine-Israel conflict.

Unprotected. Fastily while the reasoning isn't great I checked and the protecting admin, Courcelles, hasn't edited since January.

Maurice "Rocket" Richard Trophy

Indefinite full protection: Hello, I am wondering if this idea will be approved, and if this is the right place to post this, where I can gain access to editing this page when fully protected, because there is continuing vandalism where now extended confirmed users are intent on posting Auston Matthews as the winner of this award, disregarding no declaration from the National Hockey League at this instance, due to two teams having three regular season games remaining that still allows a certain (though unlikely at this point) probability of a pair of players on both of those teams to surpass him. If any of this is possible, I will show gratitude, and ensure the editing right is used appropriately, as I intend on waiting until Wednesday for the league to announce the winner. Jacked14 02:35, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

  • Note: Per protection policy, Full protection cannot be indefinite and it can be used only if there are persistent edit warring/content dispute between users. As i see on page history, i don't see any effort to edit war in the article and any requests regarding indefinite full protection will be declined. In addition, full protection means that you cannot gain access to editing the article, only administrator can do this (WP:OWN). 180.243.211.58 (talk) 02:56, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Yevgeny Ponasenkov

Indefinite semi-protection: The subject is a controversial character, and the article has been under attack for years - both from the subject who is known to employ trolls to whitewash his bio, and his opponents. Last time, it was semi-protected for a year, and, less than a month after protection has expired, we got this: [41]. We need to protect it indefinitely and forget about this IP editing. Since the protecting admin is likely to be attacked by the subject of the article, I would recommend that the admin who takes action does not have the real world identity easily traceable.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:58, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

Note: The protection request can be declined because Ymblanter doesn't warn IP 90.135.226.205 yet about the addition of wrong BLP information. I highly doubt about your request because generally admins like you didn't protect the article only due to just single IP behavior. If the single IP continues to persistently distruptive edits, you can report it to ANI or AIV. 114.125.47.205 (talk) 08:17, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
As I mentioned, bad behavior has continued for years here. The IP edit is so bad that it is covered by all exceptions, and I could have protected the page myself, but it is better if another admin would do it.--Ymblanter (talk) 10:35, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

Pol Pot

Temporary semi-protection — Or whatever change is deemed appropriate, if any. Over the past few days there have been a slew of unsourced additions and changes. I suspect they are made by the same editor who is using a VPN to IP hop, since the explanations are always the same. I have read the citations given to verify their changes, since they did not give their own sources. The verification was unsuccessful and the sources contradicted the changes, so I reverted them and clearly explained why in my edit summaries. The anonymous editor has also ignored directions to the talk page, where this should have and still could be worked out. I have started the discussion but it is clear to me that they have no intention to engage and is only interested in threatening other editors in their edit summaries with misinterpretations of Wikipedia policy.

Looking at the edits in question, it appears to only be one "person" having used 2 different IPs (one yesterday, one today). A report at AIV after the 3RR warning will allow a range block, ending said warring. As far as the alleged BLP violations go, these should be oversighted either way. This does not appear to be heavy enough or persistent enough to require protecting the page at this time, although future protection may be justified if the IP user in question continues IP hopping/warring after being blocked.

Pending changes protection: Extremely frequent and ongoing IP edits to change capitalization of subject's stage name (it was his preferred stylization, but it does not mesh with WP:ALLCAPS, as has been discussed many times and is currently answered in the talk page FAQ). No sign of the disruption stopping, so I thought maybe pending changes could work here. These edits and their reverts make up most of the edits to the page in the long-term, as is visible in the history.

Answer: Simply browse through the history of the past week, and month, and further, and you'll see I'm not the only editor having to restore after vandalism and take time to explain things to new users or passive readers turned editors. Lots of disruption from anonymous i.p.s. as well. Notice that today there have been FOUR anonymous i.p. users (including yours) blanking out a summary sentence. Four. You were one of those who blanked out that content. Eleven re-edits since the initial blanking out made by an anonymous user. Eleven. Only today.

Indefinite semi-protection: Arbitration enforcement: WP:GENSEX. IP violated MOS:DEADNAME shortly after protection expired. This page has had many long periods of protection (including some ECP).

Note: It must belong to WP:ARBBLP sanctions instead. But, the request can be declined because only one IP that had edited after the article was unprotected and has been reverted by you.

Yes sir, I have been keeping an eye on practically everything in this topic area, though I am woefully inexpert, and so many of the sources are either inadequate, foreign-langauge, or both. It is difficult even to mediate disputes here. There is a lot of nationalism and sectarianism. Elizium23 (talk) 15:36, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Comment This person has removed a lot of discussed and sourced material without joining the discussion, and meanwhile reverted some formatting work without explanation. Please check the corresponding page history and talk page. When I checked his user contribution to see if he has left a discussion somewhere I didn't find (I called his edit "undiscussed" and I was worrying if I said that wrong) surprising I found this. There indeedwas some POV which I had which was resolved when Tartan pointed it out to me in the discussion page (for example I unilaterally adopted a translation of support style when there the article has not adopted it yet, which was problematic and I reverted myself). --173.68.165.114 (talk) 14:51, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Republican Governance Group

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – There's a dispute as to what is the STATUS QUO version of the article, so I have reverted back to a version from 4 May before multiple edits made by multiple editors. There is no doubt that this is a STATUS QUO. Some of the edits made in the emantime are probably legitimate, but to avoid favoritism, ALL edits made after 4 May should be approved on the talk page with a consensus before being restored. Please see this on the talk page. Beyond My Ken (talk) 19:05, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Quick comment from another involved user: full protection is warranted as there is a multi-user edit war here, but Beyond My Ken nonsensically picked May 4 as the date of dispute rather than May 30 or May 25. This would revert the wholly uncontroversial shift of Steve Stivers from a current member to a former member following his resignation from Congress. The date in question should be May 25 - this would allow the factually correct removal of Stivers to stick. There is no reason whatsoever to lock a page to re-add a factually inaccuracy.

List of Indian states and union territories by GDP per capita

Temporary full-protection followed by permanent semiprotection: The page has been witnessing persistent vandalism by IP users and even newly registered users for many days now and needs urgent protection. Of late, a new user has been repeatedly tempering with figures of a few states. I have reverted his edits multiple times and even posted three warning messages on his talk page. Another user with very similar username who got registered today itself has started editing in the similar disruptive manner. The latter is most likely a sockpuppet of the former. This is proven by the similar names and similarities between [1] and [2]. In addition to these two, many other new users and anonymous IPs keep manipulating figures in the list article now and then.

Note: Just because we can do a thing does not mean we should or must. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 06:11, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
Deepfriedokra, WP:ARBPIA4 is not like other arbitration cases. Remedy 5B is very clear: All IP editors, users with fewer than 500 edits, and users with less than 30 days' tenure are prohibited from editing content within the area of conflict. ― Tartan357 Talk 06:12, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
I agree with Deepfriedokra. The extended confirmed protection can only be granted when there is significant distruptive edit activity between each other users in a short time, regardless there is an arbitration enforcement because there must have an condition for an article to be ECP due to the function as disrectionary tool. If i become an admin, i would decline any Arab-Israeli conflict page that would request for ECP by users but is not too enough distruptive activity to justify it but i would impose page-move ban for Arab-Israeli topic-wide. 36.77.80.201 (talk) 06:26, 30 May 2021 (UTC)<

"On primary articles, this prohibition is preferably to be enforced by use of extended confirmed protection (ECP) but this is not mandatory.". --Deepfriedokra (talk) 07:37, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
Deepfriedokra, how do you intend to enforce the prohibition, then? ECP is the easiest way. Nearly every page related to the Arab-Israeli conflict is ECP-ed under this ArbCom decision, including every other page in the rocket attack series (seriously, look at the pages in this list), and it has long been the practice to indefinitely ECP any pages related to the conflict as soon as they're identified, so I'm very surprised by this sudden departure from that practice. ― Tartan357 Talk 08:21, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Permanent semi-protection The page is constantly vandalized because it is about the basis for Thomas The Tank Engine, leading to lots of people going to the page and vandalizing it. Green Shy Guy 54 (talk) 15:37, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
