Kanhoji Angre

Reason: Far too many anonymous IPs are reverting edits to the page Pratish_K (talk) 18:17, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Looks like things have calmed down. No disruption in the last 48 hrs. Ad Orientem (talk) 21:29, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kanwar Pal Singh Gill

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism – this biography subject is being atatcked. Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 19:15, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined Already pending changes protected. The level of editing does not justify any increase in protection at this time. Ad Orientem (talk) 21:31, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Shellenberger

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. Persistent blanking of content in lead, addition of new content without discussion at talk. Hobomok (talk) 19:58, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked. Ad Orientem (talk) 21:34, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done No evidence of disruptive editing and we do not protect pages preemptively. Ad Orientem (talk) 22:30, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I just don't want people editing it HelpmePlsWhy (talk) 22:32, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
As a general rule, people don't edit other users' pages. Talk pages are for communication but user pages are your own space provided you stay within our guidelines. -Ad Orientem (talk) 22:37, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Jean Augustine

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism by the range of IPs. Dove's talk (talk) 00:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pretty low edit rate on the whole, so Pending-changes protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 01:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nayak (title)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP changing the article body hugely usually the article has more connection with the change. @@@XyX talk 00:47, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Low edit rate on the whole, so instead went Pending-changes protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 01:07, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Javon Walton

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – continued vandalism and WP:BLP issues since most recent page protection expired. Toddst1 (talk) 01:20, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 02:37, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom

Reason: I would like to remove present vandalism then re-protect page Standwithukraina (talk) 22:48, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done – Muboshgu (talk) 23:13, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:April Fools/April Fools' Day 2022

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page will inevitably be vandalized. Instead of editors pranking the page, have the page prank the editors by not allowing them to edit. Imagine the look on their faces when they have been April Fooled!. Painting17 (talk) 00:05, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. Sigh... Ad Orientem (talk) 00:08, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welland Centennial Secondary School

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – continuous removal of cited content by various IPs. Wikipelli Talk 00:09, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Ad Orientem (talk) 00:12, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Slum

User(s) blocked.
Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. El_C 03:22, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

BLM

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – You name it, people have done it to this page. Black Lives Matter got indefinite semi for the same reason. It seems that the people who wanted to vandalise (or just disruptively edit) that page have all come here instead. Asking for indefinite this time because it’s already been protected numerous times in the past and each time, the disruptive editors have returned as soon as protection expires. Helen(💬📖) 03:17, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected indefinitely. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 03:25, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Polo G

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. InterstateFive  (talk) - just another roadgeek 03:21, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Quite a history of protection, so Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 03:27, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

LifeSiteNews

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Dronebogus (talk) 01:02, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 01:10, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Coropuna

Reason: High level of vandalism by accounts changing the picture to the Ugly Dolls poster. It's a featured article, we have to move quick because this vandal is on wikipedia changing stuff right now. Please semi-protect this article as soon as possible. SteelerFan1933 (talk) 01:15, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. SteelerFan1933 has NOT been blocked (got lucky with 5 reverts), and sockpuppet User:I got no one else has been indeffed (been dealt with). I've taken the liberty of mildly chastising my mentee SteelerFan1933, who is filled with BOLD but still learning CIVIL. BusterD (talk) 02:41, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@BusterD: Not to step on any toes here, but how did you get edit warring from that? I see clear cut image vandalism and reverts of said vandalism; I blocked You and no one else (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) (User:Ad Orientem removed talk access) and I got no one else (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) as vandalism-only accounts, rather than for edit warring. The only reason I deferred on semi-protecting the page for persistent vandalism is because it's today's featured article. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 02:51, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that SteelerFan1933 was reverting clear vandalism; I'm admonishing them for trying to handle it by themselves (my mentee, my responsibility). I myself have made poorer choices, but it's a bad habit to start, without a fuller understanding. We appreciate your block of the malefactor. SF1933 and I will discuss a better way to deal with these issues in the future. It is entirely possible I should have stayed off this board at all and let another admin deal with it. I am not involved in the pagespace, but I am mildly involved as mentor. BusterD (talk) 03:04, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Impossible (2012 film)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP range edit-warring with offensive edit summaries. DonIago (talk) 05:41, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 05:56, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Muhammad ibn Ali al-Hadi

Reason: This page is being vandalized by User DedicatedFollower13 and other IP. Instead of editors adding additions and sources to the page, they are simply deleting articles and its sources and links, please make this page secure. Amanjol (talk) 03:04, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Talk page has not been used by anyone, ever. El_C 03:27, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bangui Wind Farm

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Perennial LTA target. Blake Gripling (talk) 06:20, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 08:35, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DARVO

Temporary semi-protection: There appears to be a lot of recent editing and reverting, including by IP addresses, due to having Donald Trump as one of the examples. Some level of protection might be a good idea. Gusfriend (talk) 07:52, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 08:45, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ministry of Justice (Russia)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP continuing to edit war immediately after block. Mellk (talk) 08:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 08:48, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Will Graham (character)

Reason: Repetitious IP vandalism, from two IPs. I don’t know if this is one person who can somehow change their IP (although I saw that the first IP address had previously vandalized two other articles almost a year ago) or if multiple people got together and decided to do this to amuse themselves for some reason. I’ve never requested page protection this way before, but the other way isn’t working, so hopefully this works.VictimOfEntropy (talk) 08:47, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pending-changes protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 08:51, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism resumed immediately upon expiration of protection. dizzyflamingo (talk) 05:11, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 05:56, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Isko Moreno

Reason: Moderate level of partisan vandalism. Subject matter of the article is running in the Philippine presidential elections this May. Maximum one month of semi-protection would be recommended if possible. Nuwordlife0rder (talk) 09:04, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 09:09, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MatPat

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. —twotwofourtysix(My talk page and contributions) 09:08, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Quite an extensive history of protection, so Semi-protected for a period of six months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 09:11, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Russian separatist forces in Donbas

Temporary full protection Unnecessary drive-by restorations by the same user without waiting for conclusion of the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ukraine#Far-right politics in Ukraine. Segaton (talk) 06:11, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fully protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 08:55, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Ks0stm: please note that consensus appears to be very much against the user who requested protection [1]. Volunteer Marek 09:19, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
So it would seem, but at the same time we can't have edit warring going on, so I was hoping to nip that in the bud. Tell you what, though, if they want to edit war I'll give them the rope. Hopefully they can refrain from using it, or they'll end up at AN3. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 09:29, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed Ks0stm. I've summed up what's been going on in my latest comment (1 April) on the talkpage discussion. Thanks. ~Asarlaí 11:16, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected indefinitely. Logged AE action. Independently of this request and prior full protections. El_C 10:59, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Coropuna

Reason: High level of IP vandalism that only seems to have gained steam since Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Archive/2022/04#Coropuna was filed. It's possible that this might stop of its own accord once the article stops appearing on the main page, but it could also be a the result of a previously indeffed editor hopping IPs simply to continue their disruption. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:03, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The IPs seem to have stopped so perhaps the increased interest in the article had more to do with it being on the main page than anything else. PP seems unwarranted at this time so this request can probably be closed. — Marchjuly (talk) 10:31, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of 24 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. My experience with main-page articles is that it rarely gets better over the day they're on. As people in different timezones wake up, and their first looks go to Wikipedias mainpage...followed by postings for the lulz before getting up, so to speak. Might be exacerbated by it being April 1st. Lectonar (talk) 11:13, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Jujutsu Kaisen 0 (film)

Reason: Persistent vandalism from IP and newly created account (probably it's the same recently blocked user who made the same kind of edits). Xexerss (talk) 10:44, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 10:48, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:Venkat TL

Temporary semi-protection: Sockpuppetry. Venkat TL (talk) 11:56, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – vandalism. wizzito | say hello! 11:18, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:MrAureliusR/PGP key

Temporary full protection: Asking for protection of my PGP key page so that it cannot be edited or changed. This helps ensure that it is truly my valid key. Expiry should be on October 4th, 2023 as that is when this key expires and I will need to update it. MrAureliusRTalk! 03:49, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MrAureliusR, consider placing your key on a .css page in your userspace, like User:ToBeFree/s.css. Such files are protected more strongly than full protection: They can only be edited by interface administrators... and you. Perfect, I'd say. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 05:58, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

YNW Melly

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. 38% of the past 50 edits are vandalism. Reason I'm suggesting indefinite is because there have been 7 past protections, the most recent of which was for a whole year. InterstateFive  (talk) - just another roadgeek 16:11, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done. El_C 17:01, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of World Rally Championship rallies

Reason: Frequent vandalism, always by IP accounts that add the same fictional content (an fictitious calendar for the following season-now its happening with a so called 2023 calendar, but happened in past with 2022, 2021 and so on). I propose Semi-protection. Rpo.castro (talk) 16:20, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2022 Kids' Choice Awards

Reason: Upcoming awards show article with disruptive editing mainly coming from IPs. May be a good idea to protect the article for a little over a week so there is not more disruptive editing from IPs during the actual airing of the show next Saturday night. Magitroopa (talk) 18:14, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined Only a handful of recent edits from IPs. Looks like a lot of the challenged edits are coming from more experienced editors. Ad Orientem (talk) 20:13, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@TenPoundHammer: Semi-protection would be ineffective against the recent additions of fancruft (the editor(s) involved are extended-confirmed). This is a content dispute. Please encourage other editors to discuss on the talk page and remind them of WP:BURDEN to add material. Otherwise you can request full protection to lock the page while the content dispute is being resolved. ~Anachronist (talk) 20:16, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: ISP edit warring, persistant vandalism since protection was removed in Jan 2022. Over 100 edits on this page in the last two days making it extremetly difficult to pick through what are good faith edits and which are vandalism. I reverted to the version at the time the last protection expired. Blue Riband► 04:41, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – We have a lot of IPs and new accounts either vandalising or adding unsourced or speculative information.

Semi-protected for a period of four days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Strangely for such a potential ip contribution magnet, there's no previous protection log, so let's start with brief semi-protection. We'll keep eyes on it and if we need to escalate we will. Looking at prior months there might be a bit too much editing traffic for pending changes to be maximally effective. BusterD (talk) 08:31, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've warned both FilmandTVFan28 and Armegon. They need to leave the blocked user's talk page alone. As I note here, both of their conduct has been subpar. Which is to say, even if a user is NOTHERE, that does give license to also violate policy in response. @Ks0stm: courtesy ping. El_C 07:30, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Algonquin people

Reason: IP editor frequently reverting edits. Many times, they implement non-neutral, non-encyclopedic language (across-the-board usage of endonyms which aren't commonly recognized in English, using the verb "understood" instead of "believed" in the context of subjective belief systems, etc.), but they have also reverted minor copy edits for no apparent reason. Noahfgodard (talk) 05:57, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined @Noahfgodard: I have given the editor a soft edit warring warning so that they (hopefully) discuss their changes on the talk page instead of revert again, but if they start to edit war with you feel free to take them to WP:AN3 or WP:ANI. Other than that one editor the amount of disruption wasn't enough to justify protection at the moment. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 06:12, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I already wrote to you in your talk page, why are you requesting a semi-protection page? And why are you reverting perfect edits to satisfy potential biased vandals and block evaders? There was no violation of neutrality/non-neutrality and you know that. Why are you asking now for unnecessary semi-protection and why don't you respond to me in your talk page? Anyway, I already fixed the section to satisfy parts in disagreement and made it even more neutral and also shorter.

The template is stable, has few watchers, and part of our licensing infrastructure.

Module:If empty

Change protection template from Full Protection - which the page is not protected as, to template protection as it looks slightly confusing and nearly made me think it was full protected when it isn't 19:35, 31 March 2022 (UTC)Zippybonzo | talk

The same should apply for Module:ListZippybonzo | talk 19:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, so I've looked into this and firstly, I think this is a request to decrease protection, not make an edit. Second, the template and module are cascade protected which is why they are listed as full protected. The issue Zippybonzo points out is that these modules and templates are tempalte protected in addition to the cascaded full protection. @Primefac: you protected the module, so thought it would be worth asking you: is it worth upping these template protections to full protections in order to match the cascade protection level or should I just leave it alone? — Wug·a·po·des​ 21:40, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The module is transcluded on over 2 million pages, so it absolutely must be full-protected; even if it weren't cascade-protected from being transcluded on the Main Page, it would be under fprot, which I will now do.
That being said, to answer your last question - if something gets cascade-protected normally, I do not think we need to match that protection unless it's something that will permanently be cascade-protected (like this module), because in all likelihood the cascade protection will eventually be removed. (please ping on reply) Primefac (talk) 09:08, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Primefac: thanks for the second opinion. I've also upped protection on Template:if empty and Module:List for the same reasons. I'll mark this as resolved for the bot. — Wug·a·po·des​ 21:02, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Edit warring and pov-pushing by an IP user (addition of unsourced content and misrepresented sources). Mann Mann (talk) 01:46, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This user is lying about what is transpiring at Kingdom of Khotan. If one visits the page, one can see that the newly added information is not only sourced and cited, but that there are around 16 citations from primary academic sources that corroborate the claim made. In addition, the claims of edit warring are unfactual and more applicable to the user HISTORYOFIRAN that reverted more than three good faith, sourced edits in less than 24 hours without proper rationale or reason. In addition, there are no misrepresented sources or unsourced content provided in edits made. I request the administrators and editors to visit the page, view the Talk page and see for themselves. This user also asked me to provide my sources and rationale on the Talk page of the article, and failed to respond to my concerns when I provided burden of proof.

Nonsense and personal attack. Did you wait for the other involved editors? No. The IP user didn't wait for other involved editors @HistoryofIran and Hzh: and just restored his/her edits.[12] Timestamps are crystal clear. To admins: please take a look at Kingdom of Khotan: Revision history and IP user's edits and behavior on the other articles. See how many of them were reverted by other editors; e.g. [13][14][15][16]. I opened a section on Talk:Kingdom of Khotan to stop edit warring. The IP user already violated 3RR and other WP rules. He/She clearly does not know how to use talk pages. I requested page protection because he/she just ignores other users' edit summaries and reverts their edits. He/She even never heard of patrolling and he/she thinks just because me and other users reverted his/her edits, then there must be a conspiracy against him/her. I don't edit Kingdom of Khotan so why do you expect me to participate there?! It is for you and the other editors. I just tried to convince you to stop edit warring and solve the issues via talk page, which you just ignored. Anyway, I don't edit Kingdom of Khotan and other articles edited by this IP user so I don't involve myself in this discussion anymore. Mann Mann (talk) 05:44, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Complete nonsense. You accused me of using unsourced content and misrepresented sources and when confronted with the facts, you are now trying to change the narrative and bring in examples of "reverted" content in an attempt to damage my credibility. You are wrong again my friend, for one the changes made to the articles in question were restorations of older, legitimate content that had been deleted en masse by random trolls and users without explanation, even though the content they contained was perfectly legitimate, accurate and correctly cited. I didnt even write the original content of these articles, I just reverted them to their original state before they were vandalized. You can check and compare them for yourself. The Racial classification Article has been reverted dozens of times by dozens of many established editors ever since the user AmericanHistorian went on a rampage to try to completely change the article and fill it with false statements without citations. The South Asian article was a restoration of a previous version that contained exhaustive sources and facts, because it was recently vandalized and a lot of information regarding Afghanistan was deleted. Finally, the Sayyid brothers article was edited and large parts of its content was removed by a banned user, which I simply restored with additional sources, only to have it reverted by another user without explanation. I reviewed the article again and it contains perfectly sourced content and numerous sources that support its claims so its removal was illegitimate and amounts to vandalism. Besides, people often have their edits reverted regardless of how legitimate and correct their edits are. it says nothing about the credibility of the person. You on the other hand, are simply lying about the nature of my edits and misrepresenting my intentions. 69.143.174.241 (talk) 06:28, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Your edits are disruptive and unsourced[17][18][19][20]. Even your last edit[21] is disruptive. You added an unreliable source iran chamber and there is zero mention of South Asian. Seems all of your citations are just like that and that's the why I call your edits disruptive, misrepresentation of sources, and falsification (the very same reason HistoryofIran and Hzh mentioned in their edit summaries). You just refused to use talk page and started edit warring which was the reason why I requested page protection. Your case is beyond this specific board. Other editors may take it to WP:ANI or WP:AN/3RR. End of discussion. Mann Mann (talk) 07:16, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Absolute Rubbish. More lies and misrepresentation. None of the edits you linked to are disruptive or unsourced or inaccurate. Absolutely none. I have also added 16 sources to the statement I added -- SIXTEEN -- and yet you are trying to find weaknesses in one source that is supposedly "unreliable" when the page, hosted on a reputable website, clearly states that it is an exact quote/extract from an article published in a scholarly journal by a reputed historian. Every one of the other fifteen sources clearly shows how Indian/South Asian kingdoms, people, religion, culture and influence were present in Khotan from its inception. You are clearly trolling and abusing your privileges at WP. I also find it hilarious that you are talking about how there is supposedly "zero" mention of South Asian in my sources, when the sources clearly outline that Khotan is a part of South Asian and Indian history and clearly mention its crucial inclusion as a part of South Asian kingdoms and culture. The sources literally have the name "South Asian" in many of them. Do you know even know what South Asia means? Whats even more ironic is that there is zero, nada, zilch mention of how Khotan is an "Iranian" kingdom, a claim that the article peddles without ANY sources or citations to back it up. ZERO. And yet you NEVER bring up this fact, perhaps to satisfy the other users whose agenda you seek to peddle. Shameful. 69.143.174.241 (talk) 07:34, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pending-changes protection exists, but pending-changes protection of table-/data-heavy pages is a pain for volunteer reviewers whose main task is to revert plain and obvious vandalism and accept non-vandalism.

@Deepfriedokra: Not a content dispute but failure to drop stick by the lone IP editor who edited no other subject for months (WP:SPA). If you know editors like Winged Blades of Godric and Sitush, they also concluded that this subject is fictional per this discussion. Now this IP comes out of nowhere to reject it all and edit war. That's why the page needs ECP protection so that only ECP users can edit. Wareon (talk) 16:17, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Shining Path

Temporary semi-protection: Aggressive push by an anonymous editor to have their version of an article published, despite it being contrary to Wikipedia guidelines (particularly WP:OFFICIAL and WP:COMMONNAME). Refusal to engage on the talk or consider comments in the edit summary, references to non-existent policies and avoiding discussions/confrontations by hopping across anonymous VPN IP addresses. CentreLeftRight ✉ 22:36, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@CentreLeftRight: {{Declined}} – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Based on what you had said, I thought there was perhaps a discussion you had started on the talk page that the IP user had not touched. I thought that maybe they were hijacking the page to "have their version of an article published". I was wrong on both counts. I won't be surprised if an administrator decides to block you both for edit-warring. Sdrqaz (talk) 00:06, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If going by the book is a content dispute and reverting edits contrary to Wikipedia guidelines is the start of what would be considered an edit war, then I will leave it as it is. I have no interest in being accused of the latter over a relatively small disruptive edit spree from an anonymous user. CentreLeftRight ✉ 00:25, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Sdrqaz: No worries, I can see where you are coming from having reviewed my request and reverts to that article. I should have been more clear that this particular change has been pushed on the article before, and it has been frustrating, presenting anonymous editors with known guidelines but then being ignored and dealing with a new IP.

D. C. Douglas

Reason: Could an administrator remove the temporary protection from the D. C. Douglas article in order to eliminate the term actor (something for example[28]) which covers his work as a theater, film, television and voice actor because it is his occupation, also I understand that someone protected the page definitively without giving the clear reason that IPs or obsessive users have violated the biographies policy of living people and yet nothing changed. 148.101.45.58 (talk) 01:00, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But he’s an actor and voice actor. Are you trying to pretend he’s not either? CreecregofLife (talk) 01:12, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No, it's not that, it's that I thought that by asking for the decrease of the article I was going to separate the two different professions from the actor to be able to cover all his work attached to the filmography of others, including this one and Mark Hamill for example, because not all the users here say that they can apply the opening sentences to articles related to American actors. (see here) 148.101.45.58 (talk) 01:40, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Main Page alternatives/(editable)

Reason: Unsure why this needed an indefinite semi-protection, as most vandalism seems to be blanking which I'm sure we have a filter for, PC could work to make sure that unregistered users can present their ideas (or even unprotect altogether since Wikipedia:Main Page/sandbox is unprotected). Since it seems to not be watched often a bot could clean it every so often much like in the regular sandbox. 172.112.210.32 (talk) 02:23, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Favonian: Sorry, I really must learn to read logs...Lectonar (talk) 14:08, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Prior to protecting, there was quite a bit of IP vandalism, some of which was simple blanking (which was clearly not prevented by any edit filter), some of which was not blanking. I don't pretend to fully understand the purpose of this page, it appears to be a place to park alternative versions of the main page. If so, I can't imagine a reason that IPs would need to edit this page. Are anonymous editors frequently involved in making design changes to the main page? Should they be? I'd say no. The protecting admin has been inactive for a few days, and not particularly active in general. My vote would be to decline this request, as there's a clear history of IP vandalism, and no real genuine need for IPs to edit this page. I understand that your preference is to edit from an IP, but please understand that your preference comes with many consequences, so you'll need to accept that there are many things you can't do on WP as an IP. Just out of my own morbid curiosity, is there a particular reason that you prefer to edit as an IP? For the life of me, I can't see a single advantage to it. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 19:30, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I concur with your assessment ScottyWong. I don't see benefits to enabling IP editting here and any that exist are outweighed by the burden the page has generated in the past for editors. Seddon talk 22:21, 6 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It seems that the page was meant for design experiments as Template:Editnotices/Page/Wikipedia:Main Page/sandbox appears to say to move attempted redesigning of experiments there as "there is a risk that unwelcome / unapproved changes to the Main Page might get copied across" according to the text on the editnotice.
As for the inquiry about me editing from an IP I did actually have an account once, ended up having real-life issues associated with having a Wikipedia account and decided to stop using it. I haven't bothered trying to switch back anyways since I would consider myself to be in some good standing (despite the warnings decorating my talk page saying otherwise). 172.112.210.32 (talk) 02:26, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Declined I will go ahead and decline this for now. While I see where IP172.xxx is coming from (and I sympathize with their arguments), in that case I think the disruption might be too much to handle, even when using pending-changes protection (depending on editing frequency, it might put an undue burden on recent changes patrollers or the pending-changes reviewers), and concur with the arguments of my esteemed colleagues above. As for the idea of an automatic cleaning, I guess this might be brought up at the village pump. We can always revisit the protection. Lectonar (talk) 14:18, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of Jewish universities and colleges in the United States

Reason: University was deleted in sloppy way by IP (already fixed). The comment was antisemitic and the page itself is about a sensitive topic. A limitation to changes by confirmed users would be appropriate. BenjaminFeldman (talk) 10:35, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Note: The IP edit in question was not antisemitic, it merely said that Messianic Judaism was not Judaism, and removed such a school from this list. As the Wikipedia article on this topic makes clear, many Jews, Christians, and others view Messianic Judaism to be a syncretic branch of Christianity. So unless one argues that mainstream scholarship on this is antisemitic, then this accusation is unfounded. QueenofBithynia (talk) 11:07, 7 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non-monotonic logic

Reason: A user MrOllie keeps vandalizing this page by repeatedly removing a section "Proof-theoretic versus model-theoretic formalizations of non-monotonic logics" that has been added about nine years ago, 02:34, 30 June 2013‎. The said removals have been labeled as vandalism yet user MrOllie keeps vandalizing the page. 172.88.197.74 (talk) 23:36, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This isn't "vandalism" on MrOllie's part, but rather, likely WP:PROMO on yours, IP. Whatever WP:SILENT consensus that addition might have enjoyed, it's now been contested. You may try using the article talk page (Talk:Non-monotonic logic) to establish expressed consensus for the addition, I suppose, though again, it seems awful promo'y. And because of that, I place the WP:ONUS on you. Thanks. El_C 01:40, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the protection.
The section "Proof-theoretic versus model-theoretic formalizations of non-monotonic logics" has been there for about eight (8) years. It has been valid, informative, and important part of the main article. Now, user MrOllie appears to claim, without a shred of proof, it is "WP:PROMO". It is an absurd claim, and if user MrOllie makes it then he has a burden to prove it.
Any presumption that it is "WP:PROMO" just because user MrOllie claims that it is lacks rational and policy basis. And an expectation that he can remove anything he doesn't like unless there is a consensus of the visitors opposed to the removal does not serve anyone's legitimate interest.
Would you, please, explain how did you determine it was a "WP:PROMO"? To make it easier, I include relevant quote from Wikipedia policy in this matter:
"Self-promotion. It can be tempting to write about yourself or projects in which you have a strong personal involvement. However, remember that the standards for encyclopedic articles apply to such pages just like any other. This includes the requirement to maintain a neutral point of view, which can be difficult when writing about yourself or about projects close to you. Creating overly abundant links and references to autobiographical sources, such as your résumé or curriculum vitae, is unacceptable. See Wikipedia:Autobiography, Wikipedia:Notability and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest."

However, I don't really care and any admin can upgrade or downgrade the protection if they feel like it. MoneytreesTalk🏝️ 03:50, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Opinion polling for the next Greek legislative election

Reason: The page should be given some kind of permanent protection level. For months (even years I'd say) it has been a frequent target for Greece-based POV pushing, disruptive editing and vandalism, but in recent weeks it has just become untenable, being swarmed by multiple single-purpose IP accounts (of which two, 109.242.76.6 (talk · contribs · global contribs · logs · block log) and 109.242.76.249 (talk · contribs · global contribs · logs · block log) have been blocked a combined total of four times in the past two weeks only, both for vandalism and block evasion) conducting disruptive edits (such as randomly changing and or editing party figures, which most of the time take days or even weeks to notice) and/or unjustified blanking of content or adding copyrighted logos over and over again. Very recently, single-purpose logged-in accounts seem to have taken an interest in the page as well.

It should be noted that the article was protected between 10 and 24 March, during which there was scarcely any disruption, if any. The disruption level skyrocketed upon unprotection, though. Impru20talk 17:46, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Edit-warring first by an IP and now by a non-ECP account. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 16:00, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Seems unwarranted since the IP's edits were on 5 March 2022. The other editor User:Disansee has previously created one new article in February 2022,[45] which seems to involve good faith edits judging from their preparatory sandbox. Given that background, the WP:3RR warnings[46][47] are puzzling. Mathsci (talk) 16:57, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Edit-warring has little to do with good or bad faith. You stalking me, however (you never edited that page before - [48]), is not the first time, and I've already respectfully asked that you stop doing that. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 17:03, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see edit-warring at the moment. There was a Smart aleck edit-summary with "And I'm the Queen of England". The edit history is self-explanatory.[49] I see no evidence of "stalking". Parenthetically, I have been one of the main contributors to the article Marseille: years ago, in 2007, I added content about La Marseillaise, including this image File:Marche-des-marseillois.jpg. I also added similar images to History of Marseille. Mathsci (talk) 17:54, 9 April 2022 (UTC) [refactoring, new time stamp][reply]
Me using a ridiculous argument to show how the other editor's appeal to authority is not convincing is just that, a bit of ridicule. You never editing a page before, and then coming here to dispute my actions, is clear evidence and needs no further commentary (particularly not off-topic tangents about an unrelated page).

Reason: I log on almost everyday at least for the last week or so to find an IP has "updated" the page with misinformation. If you look at the edit history you will see what I am referring to, at no point does the source say what these IPs are saying it does. Thats another thing I would like to point out, it is always a new IP every time, often ones that have never contributed to wikipedia. For these reasons, I am hoping to get the page semi-protected to prevent this from happening so much. Thank you AFrickingNerd (talk) 14:54, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am questioning this result. The vandalism appears to be based on Max Park getting an apparent record on the 3x3 average at the Bay Area Speedcubin' 29 PM 2022 competition. However, even though Max Park participated (I made an error in one of my reverts at Speedcubing where I assumed he didn't participate), as of currently the WCA is still working to upload the results. Since the results have not been released yet the record cannot be confirmed currently, and under the assumption there is still reverting going on, this page (as well as Speedcubing) should probably be protected. 172.112.210.32 (talk) 19:18, 9 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite template protection: Highly-visible template.

Template has 4,855 transclusions anyway (module has 4,889), so template protection wouldn't be too much.

Controversial Subreddits

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because limiting editing amounts to a suppression of free speech. I regularly read the subreddit GenZedong and it’s current characterization as controversial is without merit.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Repeated attempts by multiple users to create an article from the redirect, ignoring the hidden note that the subject in question fails WP:NACTOR.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP vandalism of the type you'd expect on this page. A. C. Santacruz ⁂ Please ping me! 19:27, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. A. C. Santacruz: In general we are reluctant to protect article talk pages, unless the vandalism is out of control or violates WP policies, and even then we protect only for a short term. That's because when the main article is indefinitely protected, as this one is, the talk page is the only place where new or unregistered editors can have any input. Yes, this page does get vandalized with some regularity, but the solution is simply to have regular editors delete the vandalism edits - as I see happens very promptly at this article. MelanieN (talk) 22:01, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Monica Gandhi

Reason: I am Monica Gandhi and someone keeps on vandalizing my page. These 3 lines are not appropriate as I wrote articles changing this thinking and the Mehdi Hasan interview was completely libelous and inappropriate; there was no basis to put this interview in here when I have done 100s of interviews during COVID. This person who keeps on vandalizing the page should be stopped from editing. My institution UCSF keeps on trying to edit this page and is unable to. Please unprotect this page and allow editing by UCSF. These lines should be removed: "The literature she reviewed suggested that masks can reduce viral load by filtering the majority of particles, and that countries with mask mandates had dramatically decreased death rates.[15][17] In an interview with CBS News, Gandhi said, “How much virus you get in is probably one of the most important determinants of how sick you get ... By having a mask over your face, it filters out the majority of viral particles. So, even if you do get exposed to COVID ... you are going to get very little virus in, and if you do get COVID, you’ll get less sick.”[18]

Gandhi was criticized by Mehdi Hasan during her appearance on his MSNBC talk show in February 2022 for her predictions during the pandemic and ending restrictions early.[19]"

In any case, adjusting the protection or lifting it outright is, at this time, simply irrelevant to the matter at hand. El_C 10:54, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Pisgat Ze'ev stabbings

Reason: This article downplays the oppressive regime called Israel and its continual, systematic and brutal actions towards one ethnicity and especially the children of this particular race. In this particular case there was no evidence the children stabbed and there was no trial of this. The children were attacked, this is a cert, and the surviving child was left unaided for approx. half an hour, broken and bleeding while adult Jews were yelling profanities such as "die you son of a whore". All of the above was omitted from the article and Wiki..... hasn't even added in the latest news, i.e. that the young survivor has sat in an Israeli prison for seven years and that on the 13th April the Israeli court released him. 122.104.60.197 (talk) 21:35, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Hello there, need your assistance here. An IP editor is adding unreferenced date / year of birth and I have been requesting for sources but have not been getting them. The IP editor (though from a neighboring IP block) was doing the same action on Chibuzor Nwakanma and Tadao Takahashi earlier. I am copying user:Robby.is.on as an FYI. Greatly appreciate temporary page protection on this article or alternately an action against the IP block. I will very soon run afoul of WP:3RR and hence I might not be able to act. Thanks.

Semi-protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This has an interesting page history. Seems to draw a lot of activity. Virtually everyone who has edited this article until recently seems a single purpose account or is currently blocked for sock puppetry, including the editor responsible for the last four edits (a blocked sock trying vainly to apply a protection lock template). This is always a bad sign on a BLP or a CORP and resembles some sort of long-term coordination. Makes me wonder about the integrity of the BLP pagespace, which possesses some citation but seems puffy. I appreciate the reporting by both editors trying to help.

Reason: Two users, probably the same user because the edits are the same, are removing content with source and putting "most prestigious" in the lead even though the sources rather say "top". Like last time, they remove sources without using talk page, and they will probably say that they provide "many" even though the diffs show removing the sources.

Battle of Barawa

Reason: This article and Battle of Benadir are bizarre. Both detail an obscure raid the Portuguese conducted against a Somalian city in the 16th century, and both have been persistently vandalized and protected on and off for years. They've been given several semi-protections, with the last one being an Extended Confirmed Protection, but vandalism continued as soon as protection wore off even despite multiple bans to many sock-puppet accounts, by the looks of it all belonging to the same obsessive Somalian nationalist. Since everything has failed despite our best efforts I now strongly request that an Indefinite Extended Confirmed Protection please be applied to both pages, because I've been cleaning them almost single-handedly for several years already, and that's getting old. Wareno (talk) 22:45, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The protection level has also caused an issue with RfDs about the page due to the inability to edit the page to add a template. TartarTorte 02:14, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite extended protection: Page used by Ultraviolet to load the preferences menu (similar to WP:Twinkle/Preferences) - issues may occur if someone vandalised this. Remagoxer (talk) 17:14, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The worst thing one could do to this page, I guess, is replacing it by a redirect, making the settings page inaccessible. I can't think of any other way to cause noticeable disruption. Pages are usually not protected preemptively, but perhaps an administrator will protect it as a "highly visible page". Which it isn't at the moment, if I understand correctly... But I'll leave this open. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:25, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. Valjean, while WP:ONUS and WP:BURDEN are part of the verifiability policy, WP:BRD is just an essay. The user is discussing with you on the article's talk page. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:34, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, but edit warring is against policy, and a violation of BRD is nearly always the first step in edit warring. It is often cited as evidence of edit warring, and, AFAIK, is a often clear proof of who started the edit warring. Let's hope they'll stick to discussion now. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 00:11, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: The page is currently fully protect with protection (I think) due to expire today. Since protection was imposed due to edit warring, an RFC has been opened, but the creator of that RFC is currently showing the same poor behaviour (personal attacks and not assuming good faith) thus I have little confidence he/she is going to play by the rules. I don't think the RFC will conclude amicably any time soon so I would suggest leaving the article protected for longer. In the meantime any admin who wants to swing by the RFC and steer things back in the right direction would be very welcome. 10mmsocket (talk) 17:38, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Malcolm London

Reason: Hi my name is Malcolm London. I am the artist and poet this page is about. I am activist and organizer who has a lot for public visibility for a lot of my work. Work I am proud of but people random people come on here to slander my name and misreport facts. The first time I saw my wikipage it stated I was arrested and sent to jail for sexual assault which is entire UNTRUE. I have been arrested but never for anything like that. I have been arrested at protest and beaten by the police on several occasions. As a community member I have been called out for sexual misconduct and I've addressed those things publicly and aim to accountable for them. I would like to lock my page so that myself and other authorized users can make edits that have the correct information. The wrong information has costed me a several employment opportunities. My public twitter account has the correct and transparent information but Wiki is often the first page people see or respond to. I am begging you for protection so that people aren't reporting on sensitive information that is affecting my livelihood. I would certainly be willing discuss the sensitive nature via email or phone. Please protect this page so that people are not disrespecting me, my work or misnaming the harm of survivors. Qu3stionThatN33dAnsw3rs (talk) 17:00, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Protection is not needed here; discussion on the talk page is. At the moment, in fact, the section of the article discussing the allegations is actually rather favorable to you due to your edits. But it cannot state that the allegations are false, as much as you believe, because a) they were published in the Chicago Reader, a reliable source, so only if it was reported there or in another reliable source that there was at least some doubt about their veracity could the article even begin to say that and b) all that it says now is that the allegations were made, not that it definitely occurred as stated.

Found the button now, sorry. The TFA having an increased number of edits is expected.

Reason: Persistent disruptive IP editors. Hey man im josh (talk) 00:51, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Article subject is a well-known and well-followed figure on social media who has recently been in the news for allegations that his attorney (and at least one IP editor) characterizes as part of a "smear campaign" (without evidence). Recommend increasing the protection level for this page until the heat around recent press coverage dies down.

Borscht

Temporary semi-protection: The origin of borscht is Ukraine is based on reliable sources and long-standing consensus amongst registered editors. Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, there has been a steady stream of IP editors (whose IP addresses almost all lead to Russia) who change the origin to "Russia", sometimes with comments that "Ukraine didn't exist when borscht was invented" on the Talk Page, parroting the political POV of Ukraine's Russian invaders. A restriction on IP editors should be sufficient to block most of the war-influenced editing against consensus. "Temporary" should be understood to mean "for the duration of the war".

Danhausen (wrestler)

Reason: He has done many interviews and has a specific way he wishes to promote himself. His Wikipedia page needs to represent his wishes. If true research is done, then you’d see what his truth is. It’s a part of his character. I understand if you want to say his real name Donovan Danhausen is -whatever- but his character Danhausen is different. He created his page and I want to protect it. I’ve thoroughly researched his persona. Interviews, watched matches, how he interacts with fans, and get accurate information from his father. All the things the “character” Danhausen says. People editing this page are changing everything to the human. Example, his height/weight. He did a verbal interview with Fightful. He said what his height/weight is. It can be referenced and I changed it. But someone else wishes to make sure it’s Donovan as a person. They did a different reference that was older. Danhausen is a character!! His Wikipedia page needs to be accurate as Danhausen THE WRESTLER! His page should be protected as such. It’s like if you changed RuPauls page to be all of her as a man. RuPaul is a character. Just as Danhausen is. Despite what some individuals think…his character needs 100% protection. Wndr Twin Powers (talk) 06:28, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User is inserting the book by unreliable author named Mushtaq Tijarvi. They were told to prove its reliability. But they are fail to do it instead edit warring. Please see the article history.

You've been removing it continuously without a legit valid reason. Gain the consensus first, and then get it removed, until then the article will remain as it as been prior to your removal of the FR. Before that, I'll continue reverting your disruptive edits again and again. The onus is on you to prove that this book is unreliable and so is its author, which you cannot. ─ The Aafī on Mobile (talk) 18:45, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

edit warring is what you are doing, I'm just doing what was there before you began disruption. Start a discussion and gain consensus that the author is unreliable and so is the book. Then I won't have any problem if the community consensus decides the source is unreliable and is removed. For now, it is not. ─ The Aafī on Mobile (talk) 18:59, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dear admins, this has now turned into a serious content dispute and the IP user is adamant and doesn't want to gain the consensus first. I told them that gain consensus that the respective scholarly source is unreliable and then get it removed and besides that they are continuously removing it.

Reason: Request pending changes, which I requested last time but the page was semied instead. IP addresses, possibly the same person, are persistently adding false information to this page which has been the subject of talk page discussion in the past. Discussion and sources have consensus that the IP's edits are incorrect. This IP user has never made one word of edit summary or talk page posts. The user makes a few North-Macedonia edits at a time in its sessions. The page has few watchers and this disruption is persistent and sporadic, which is what pending changes is for.

Jack Massey Welsh (born June 24, 1996 [23]), known online as JackSucksAtLife (now formerly JackSucksAtMinecraft), is an English YouTuber. He was born and raised in Bishop Auckland, England. He previously lived in North Yorkshire but currently lives in Nottinghamshire, England. He also runs many other channels such as JackSucksAtStuff, JackMasseyWelsh, JackSucksAtGeography, as well as many others.

After registering in 2013, Jack primarily posted Minecraft Let's Play videos. In 2014, he hit 100 thousand subscribers. Over time, his style has diversified to include reaction videos, challenge videos, and play button videos.

Other things Jack is known for include promoting Larry in his video 'This is the new Pewdiepie vs T-Series'. He is also known for playing the Kazoo, collecting YouTube Creator Awards, and eating an Eggplant. He has had drama with The Original Ace, who claimed that Jack had stolen his sponsor, even though Jack was sponsored by Drop (at the time called Massdrop) first. However, this was later revealed to have been faked for the videos. As well as having drama with The Original Ace, he has also had drama with Willz The King.

Jack used to make many Minecraft videos on his main channel, including series such as, Hacker Catching Trolling, One Life, and Harmony Hollow. However in 2019 he moved his Minecraft videos to his channel JackSucksAtStuff.

Margaret A. Wilcox

Reason: This is the first time I have requested this, and perhaps it is too minor. This page was initially rejected at AfC for lacking sources and not being written in a neutral/encyclopedic tone. I found the draft, added sources to demonstrate notability, and moved it to the mainspace. Since then Nico C35, YeonL, and an IP editor have added back the WP:PUFFERY. Their only edits on Wikipedia are to this page. I am not adverse to corrections, indeed I made two errors on the page I moved to the mainspace (and have corrected them), but the puffery seems a bit much ('innovator skillset','deep knowledge','critical inventions','great potential',brilliant female engineer','innovative thinker').

@Materialscientist: Pinging protecting admin. I'm a bit torn on this one. The vandalism that occurred prior to protection seemed pretty routine, so jumping straight to indef protection seems like it might have been overkill. On the other hand, with the invasion of Ukraine still ongoing, articles on these kinds of subjects are at higher risk for vandalism, so I'd be a bit hesitant to unprotect too. Maybe split the difference and make the protection expire in a few months? Just a suggestion. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 14:34, 23 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Country

Reason: Would this be a case of abuse of the page protection mechanism? My post has nothing to do with what CMD called "sockpuppetry" or whatever he/she calls it. But it was deleted (so as my edits to the article itself). He/she doesn't even allow people to talk at the talk page. 210.0.147.101 (talk) 14:26, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see a lot of unregistered sockpuppets on that talk page from the past 48h. Even if we assume (as we should) that you're not one of them, that doesn't mean the protection isn't justified since they are there. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 21:05, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No I am not. And I failed to see sockpuppetry there. Yes there are many non-registered editors but that isn't automatically the same thing as sockpuppetry. If this is not a case for RfPP, should this be brought to AN? Where would you suggest? 210.0.147.79 (talk) 09:25, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, it looks like you have been caught up in a page protection that was not intended to catch you, but nonetheless, is still necessary. I agree that, given the activity on that talk page and the fact that an individual has been using multiple IP addresses to circumvent a justly-placed block against them, unfortunately, we cannot have that talk page open for the time being. Don't worry, there is no rush, and if you have something important to contribute, you can just wait out the page protection. --Jayron32 11:42, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I don't observe there are any individuals who are using multiple IP addresses, but, rather, several individuals. (I myself am on dynamic addresses but that's within a very narrow band.)
In any case thank you for the reassurance that I am not banned from that article/talk page, and that my edits were alright. Please help communicate with those administrators that made the mistakes, and reinstate my edits and my talk page posts at once when that's settled. It's truly a matter of concern that there are so many of them who are not able to actually read and to tell when there are real and helpful contributions. Those who work in such a mechanical way shouldn't be given such powers and duties. 210.0.147.41 (talk) 12:40, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You're knowledge of the banned user in question is not relevant. They are there, they have been using that talk page in violation of their ban, and the protection was necessary to stop them. Other than your IP address, the other addresses being used on that talk page are all from known ranges, and the format and manner of the editing closely matches, the banned editor in question. This protection will not be undone for the time being. Please let the matter drop, you'll do nothing but waste your breath at this point. --Jayron32 13:07, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Transnistria

Reason: Hesitated on asking for page protection earlier as the number of disruptive edits were relatively low even though they increased due to the 2022 invasion of Ukraine as the article covers a relevant topic. However, unsourced additions and edits contrary to existing consensuses and policies (e.g. WP:COMMONNAME consensus to use the name Transnistria) have spiked in the past 24 hours because of a recent attack on Transnistria's capital Tiraspol. One was made when I was in the middle of an edit a few minutes ago. I think some kind of temporary protection (for a week or two) would benefit this page by keeping out vandals, as well as (perhaps good faith?) anonymous and new editors who seem to be pushing a pro-Russia narrative or POV (in the example given, the IP editor says "vile nazis", a reference to Russian propaganda that Wikipedia is written in part by Nazis because it does not reflect a few specific positions of the Russian government). Another example was this revert to my revert: with the comment "Use your brains not Western propoganda". CentreLeftRight ✉ 19:03, 26 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Meanwhile, the discussion on their conduct is going on at WP:ANI#Zamindars of Bihar, unreliable source. Hence, in order to avoid disruption till then it should be protected.
