legal importance to who? If its supposed to be a copy of a version of a generic license, Wikipedia isn't the place for it. Gonnym (talk) 15:41, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I don't have an issue with them being here, and would prefer they stay protected. They are linked from a number of user pages, and there are probably few watchers to catch potential vandalism. It does have legal ramifications. Dennis Brown 2¢ 02:49, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bungle (Rainbow)

Reason: This page was indefinitely semi-protected in 2013. It was redirected by consensus at AFD last August. I highly doubt that protection is still needed. The protecting admin no longer has the mop. QuicoleJR (talk) 16:45, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I note that it was protected by Jimbo Wales. Never saw one of those before. And I do not see why any unconfirmed account or anonymous IP address would need to edit it. The history is available for merging into the target, and that's all that needs to be done. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:50, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree per Anachronist. Redirects are less watched, so easier to get vandalism go unnoticed. And for some reason, children's shows and cartoons seem to be ripe for vandalism, redirect or article, so I would lean towards keeping it simply because protection is a net positive. Put another way, out of the next possible 100 edits to that page (if unprotected), it is likely that all 100 would be vandalism, not valid changes. Dennis Brown 2¢ 08:36, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alkhalil family

Semi-protection: Our friend, the prolific sock puppet Kelowantogdog has returned. This edit [8] by the IP from Toronto, 199.119.233.168. Even the same edit summary "Rescued valid citations once again" shows that is someone who has edited the article before. Compare that edit by the IP with this edit by Kelowantogdog's sock puppet DJ drama23 [9]. And compare that edit with another of Kelowna's sock puppets, Jet Lii [10], [11], and [12]. All these edits are clearly by the same person, and that person has been blocked. This is a my first time asking for page protection for this article, but it is not my first time asking for page protection from Kelownatopdog. It has been my experience that imposing page protection for a short time does not work with him because he just starts editing again the moment the page protection expires, and so for this reason, I would this article protected for a least a considerable period of time.

Semi-protection: the same as above. Our friend, the prolific sock puppet Kelowantogdog has returned. This [13] by the IP 199.119.233.168 that occurred on 2 February just 14 minutes apart from the edit on the Alkhalil family is clearly the work of the same person. Even the highly misleading edit summary "Citations removed for what reason?" is very typical of Kelowantopdog's editing style. And it is useful to compare that edit with this edit [14] by Watchthislilsuzy, another of Kelowantopdog's sock puppets. Given that Kelowantopdog never takes the hint and just starts editing an article the moment the page protection expires, would it possible to have this article protected for a substantial period of time.

Semi-protection: Continuing block evasion by Kelownatopdog. This edit today [16] by an IP from Toronto bears all the hallmarks of Kelowantopdog. Compare that edit with this edit [17] by another IP from Toronto. Note how Kelowantopdog always puts the names of other editors in quotation marks. For furhter comparison, look at this edit [18] by one of Kelownatopdog's sock puppets. Given that this article has been protected twice before because of Kelowantopdog (see here [19] and here [20]), surely it is time for more sterner measures? Our friend Kelownatopdog is no doubt laughing at all us as he continues his merry rampage of block evasion, sock puppetry, petty insults and ethnic-religious chauvinism across the encyclopedia, and so for this reason would it please be possible to have this article protected for a considerable period of time? Whenever the page protection expires, Kelownatopdog just starts editing again, which is which this problem continues. Thank you for your time and help. --A.S.

Republicanism in the United Kingdom

Reason: repeated removal of polls from table Yet again, the three most recent polls are being removed from the table in this article: [21] Despite the article having been protected twice by @User:Daniel Case, the latest one not having expired yet, another lower-access level editor has removed three polls on spurious grounds; it essentially amounts to continued disruptive editing. The current protection level is "Autoconfirmed and confirmed users". The editors who have recently removed these polls appear to be either unregistered, new users, or autoconfirmed, who have not edited much else recently. The most recent removal of these polls is another example: [22] I strongly suspect that pro-monarchy bias is behind these continued removals of the three recent polls. More to the point, it looks like the Republicanism in the United Kingdom article needs increased protection please.--TrottieTrue (talk) 00:43, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fully protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @TrottieTrue: This is a content dispute and must be resolved via WP:DR. It's not reasonable in this situation to adjust the protection to exclude some editors and I will post on talk suggesting an RfC. I have not examined the bulk of your above comment but it might contain some research into the possible identity of an editor. That would be WP:OUTING and would require that you be blocked. In general, do not comment on other editors. Johnuniq (talk) 01:06, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for adding the protection. Regarding the editor, I have removed the content that you refer to, but I believe that they have "posted their own information, or links to such information, on Wikipedia", as per WP:OUTING. You say "In general, do not comment on other editors." In this case, there are grounds to suspect that the editor has the same identity as a previously blocked editor. Should that not be reported?

2023 AFC Asian Cup knockout stage

Reason: There is an Iraqi user constantly distorted the match's report between Iraq vs Jordan shortly after Iraq lost 2-3 to Jordan to justify that Iraq "won a knockout stage game" in 2015 (7-6 on penalties to Iran after a 3-3 draw), while brazenly rejected the fact that, according from FIFA's knockout laws, when the match headed to penalties, the result is officially counted as a draw, no matter who won on penalties. When we write on this matter, we must respect what FIFA set up for, not by newspaper and propaganda. It's necessary to impose two or three weeks protection to restrict users with intention to distort the reality. HiddenFace101 (talk) 10:34, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You could go through all the different RfCs we had for implementing pending changes protection in the first place, but I think this quote describes it best: For users who aren't banned or otherwise restricted from editing talk pages, a user's talk page comments should never require approval by another user. This includes talk page edits that are vandalizing or otherwise abusive, which should be handled through other extant Wikipedia processes such as reverting the change or banning the user. And indeed: who shall be the judge as to what is acceptable as talk-page contribution? We have multiple ways of dealing with disruption. For all the discussions about the topic, see here. Lectonar (talk) 15:56, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Claims their being reverted is "vandalism". This needs to stop.

Comment What purpose does that page in userspace serve? I get that it's a meme, but why do we need to host it in Wikipedia in the first place? OhNoitsJamie Talk 20:09, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I'd enjoy reading an answer to Ohnoitsjamie's question. User:Liance, should an encyclopedia host such content? BusterD (talk) 20:26, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ohnoitsjamie BusterD I had assumed it would fall under WP:HUMOR/WP:FUN - I've hosted numerous similar, harmless "meme" userboxes and content with hundreds of transclusions without having an issue raised in the past. In the near-decade I've been active I haven't been challenged for something like this that stays strictly in the userspace. I typically avoid creating trivial content, but I fail to see how WP:WEBHOST would apply in this case. If there's a policy or guideline that I'm violating and wasn't aware of, please do let me know. ~Liancetalk 23:00, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not convinced it serves a useful purpose here, and am not interested in setting a precedent of protecting userspace memes. I'll leave it open in case there is an admin who thinks that is worth protecting.OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:31, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Quite frankly I don't see the difference between protecting this page and any other user page. I see plenty of sub-userpages with protection in Special:ProtectedPages which could be considered to have the same level of "utility" (or, lack thereof) to the overarching project. This includes numerous pages under the "humor" umbrella. Does this mean that my page should be the subject of vandalism attempts because it's a "meme"? What makes it worth protecting less than any other userspace page? I apologize but I don't see the argument here. ~Liancetalk 23:50, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Ohnoitsjamie Per policy, I'm inclined to protect (given semi-protetion of userpages is pretty much automatic) and then encourage an MFD if someone doesn't think it should be here. I think the response to this request should either be semi-protection or deletion, and outside calling a U5 (which this isn't) deletion doesn't happen here. Courcelles (talk) 14:07, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, the reason this can't be considered for a U5 is because that criteria only covers userspaces of users "where the owner has made few or no edits outside of user pages". That clearly doesn't cover @Liance with 7,000 mainspace edits. Courcelles (talk) 14:19, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected indefinitely. In line with my comment above. I'm not sure how I would !vote in an MFD, but that's where the "should we have this page hosted" question belongs. As an RFPP matter, it qualifies for protection as there is disruption. Courcelles (talk) 14:09, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

L. K. Advani

Reason: The article belongs to one of the politicians, who has had a controversial past with significant involvement in the Ayodhya dispute. Recent news events such as Ram Mandir opening in Ayodhya and awarding of Bharat Ratna has brought him into the spot light. There are quite of number of ip edits, edits by non-confirmed users and socks of the same user trying to make changes to the lead, repeat points already mentioned and making POV edits. Most recent edits have come from a single user or his socks, who despite explaining in detail in the talk page and warning multiple times is making the same edits. The user account pertains to the particular user User:The Invincible 000000 and now same edits from different ip address post warning (last edit of the same from IP User:2001:1c04:2a08:a00:d828:d230:6206:d438). As the article is a biography with links to controversial subjects concerned with religion in India, request protection with edits restricted to extended confirmed users. Thanks.

Template:OSM Location map/coretemp

Reason: This is a stopgap template, until such time as the 'graph' module issue is resolved. This version of Template:OSM Location map/core is the temporary re-working which produces 'better than nothing' maps using maplink instead of the vastly more flexible 'graph' options. It needs some maintenance, given the glacial rate of progress with the proper fix. In particular I need to sort out start numbers and increase the number of marks back to 60. This will be vastly easier if I can do proper editing. It was protected by User:MusikBot II/TemplateProtector because it is seemingly

  • too important to allow people to edit
  • but not important enough for WMF to sort out the underlying problem.

If it can be made editable for a while that would be extremely useful. Thanks, RobinLeicester (talk) 18:17, 5 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed protection: BLP policy violations – anon IP repeatedly posting innuendo about topic of article, insisting it be added to article.

To be clear, I only suggest anon IP be blocked from editing the article and talk page discussed. Anon says they're going to take it to dispute resolution, I see no reason to block anon's ability to do so. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 04:50, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to be a dispute on what content to include, and not disruption. And even if it was, extended confirmed protection is unnecessary and higher than the actual article's protection itself. Also, informing them that they'll be blocked shortly is hardly an attempt at "reasoning with the anon". 92.40.212.156 (talk) 07:37, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined per above discussion. Daniel Case (talk) 19:22, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello? Anyone? The page genuinely needs protection, and anon-ip's inclusions of guilt-by-association and conspiracy theories needs to be removed per WP:BLPTALK, or am I missing some particular nuance? I acknowledge my previous comments were inadequate; the initial request is valid, his edits on talk are blp-talk violations. The other anon-IP who chimed in on this is not the IP that was in question; There's been no discussion with that identity on the blp talk page. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 02:51, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for my lack of clarity. It is extremely rare for me to make formal requests on wikipedia. I've been here a long time, and avoid the backend bureaucratic machinations as much as possible - to the point that I am ignorant about how many of them work. I was indeed asking for page protection on the Dan Quayle talk page, because the anon-IP is trafficking in serious BLP violative conspiracy theories. Editors other than myself have deleted his additions to the page because they violate talk-blp. I attempted to engage with anon-IP, to no avail. IP 92.40.212.156, ignoring my attempts prior to my notifying him that he would be blocked shortly isn't really good-faith. I notified him of same so that he'd be aware that the window of opportunity for responding was limited.
I thought I had selected the correct path - page protection due to talk-blp violations. I wasn't aware that I had selected disruptive editing. Or didn't I? I don't know, but I do know that I did not request that the IP or the IP range be blocked, I simply misspoke in my followup (again, forced-ignorance of these processes). My apologies for the confusion I generated. I still maintain that anon-ip's contributions to the talk page are clearly violative of talk-blp, as other editors have also shown by their reversions. Do I need to resubmit the request for page protection? cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 21:50, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. The times this redirect has been edited has been the result of discussion. Therefore the protection is working as intended. No valid reason has been given to reduce protection of this redirect. It hasn't been subject to vandalism because it is protected. It's a short, often-used term for the target article, more so than Charles, Prince of Wales, which is a less plausible search term than Prince Charles. ~Anachronist (talk) 04:09, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is something that must be addressed on Commons (Wikipedia proper does not host it), because if what you say is true than (1) the image was uploaded under false pretenses and (2) Commons does not host fair-use images.

Indian Institutes of Technology

Reason: Please mark this article as a semi-protected article. The page has been vandalized multiple times in recent times.

Instances this week:

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. "Vandalism" is defined as edits specifically to undermine the encyclopedia. The one time removal of information was likely bias. The other link was you correcting the insertion of a youtube video, but that was probably not vandalism, might have been added in good faith for all I know, but I didn't go digging into the history to see where it was added. Regardless, there isn't enough recent vandalism, or disruption, to warrant protecting the article. Dennis Brown 2¢ 09:53, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DMC World DJ Championships

Reason: The company responsible for the tournament has repeatedly attempted to edit-war in a 27000+ byte list of every winner of every variant of the tournament, which numerous editors including myself have labelled as advertising, violating WP:NOTWEBHOST ([39]), and Wikipedia [being] not an appropriate place for these lists ([40]). Despite this, they have tried to force it in under

plus 2001:56b:3ff1:1f4d:c499:c323:8671:c49b left me a nice personal attack on the article's AfD page ([47]). The fact that they used both static and dynamic IPs makes me think a simple range-block won't fix it, so I'd like to request protection. Ideally I'd prefer ECP--I can absolutely see the company making ten dummy edits just to resume edit-warring again, and I won't be able to revert them at that point--but even semiprotection would be better than nothing. 2603:8001:4542:28FB:2DC0:9C2E:6D19:E08D (talk) 23:45, 9 February 2024 (UTC) (Send talk messages here instead)[reply]

Florida_Parental_Rights_in_Education_Act

Hello,

This page clearly violates Wikipedia's "purpose of Wikipedia" and "neutral point of view policy." I can see why this page is classified as a "contentious topic page." The subject matter of this page is a historical event of legislation which it should be about, instead it reads as the ramblings of a liberal political activist. It is rife with a cacophony of political bias and ideological beliefs all backed up with a boatload of unscientific political opinion articles as "sources," which themselves have no sources. This "encyclopedic" account of historical legislation is completely lacking in any form of objectivity. There is no question what the "protected author's" beliefs and political opinions are. I believe this entire article should be scrapped and built from the ground up by people who respect what Wikipedia strives for. I hope someone with love for Wikipedia and the understanding of how important recording objective truth is receives this. For posterity.

Sincerely, Matthew Fennell

Money laundering

I am the representative of the public organization "TETChange". Please kindly remove the company TETChanee from the information about money laundering. that is 100% false. The company is legal. It works as a public organization. The Editor gave false information about U.S. sanctions, since the company TetChange has never been under any sanctions. This type of disinformation can mislead and put us in the black PR list, which is something the editor should be responsible for. We ensure that our clients are always safe and can rely on us fully.

Spanish protests against the amnesty (2023-2024)

Protection type: Full protection from anyone aside from admins Reason: User or user keeps adding information deemed false despite repeated warnings to provide genuine sources to prove they are still ongoing. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spanish_protests_against_the_amnesty_(2023-2024)&diff=prev&oldid=1205845079 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Unidosporasensio https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Dreimouse_in_an_nutshell https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spanish_protests_against_the_amnesty_(2023-2024)&diff=prev&oldid=1200536779 I believe these users are the same ones, and this dispute has been ongoing for months about whether the protests are ongoing. This user says they are still ongoing, but have never provided any genuine sources to prove it, and t he protests largely faded in mid November. I certainly haven't seen any articles suggesting otherwise.

Hard to engage with a dynamic IP - different IP in the /64 range each time. Obvious reason is in my edit summaries which is usually sufficient for most editors.

Reason: Very low quality sources are reporting that this man has been arrested for killing his wife.

LM2000 (talk) 07:19, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Its hard to justify protection just yet, there is just the single instance of adding the questionable material, and they seem to have done so in good faith. I would agree that the sources are NOT up to par (although it may very well be true). For now, I agree with you reverting it out, and being a BLP, there is a degree of exemption for reverting it back out even after 3RR considering the sources. I would suggest leaving a note on the talk page, and the editors' talk page over it. Until there is decent sourcing, the material should stay out, but until it is more than a single instance, it is hard to protect it. I will leave this here to stew, and see what happens over the next few hours, rather than outright "decline". Dennis Brown 2¢ 08:19, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined @LM2000: My instinct is to protect but there is nothing on talk discussing the sources and there are sources with the claim although I don't know if they are RS.

Reason: High level of IP vandalism by 80.136.196.48 who's also making trouble on the Wiki pages of Black's family members:

  • Makes similar edits to the Wiki pages of Black's son[52] and sister.[53][54]
  • Puts "Conflict of Interest" tag on page for no reason.[55] Claims in edit summary that content is "unreferenced", which is a complete lie and an obvious one at that.
  • Deems entire family of Theodore McKeldin as "non-notable" and deletes properly sourced content, including the acknowledgment of a deceased grandson who twice ran for public office.[56]
  • Removes licensed photos from article,[57] claiming that "family snaps are non-notable", which is rubbish as Gold Star articles like James Stewart and Katharine Hepburn display such photos. Deep Purple 2013 (talk) 21:03, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined @Deep Purple 2013: The IP might be correct. Please discuss the issues on article talk.

Hello - please excuse me if I am not reporting this in the correct format. A recently registered editor, Deep Purple 2013 is making a series of edits to the Karen Black article together with articles related to her: [58], [59], [60] and [61] Such an emphasis on one family to the exclusion of other subjects is sufficient enough, but the added content is of personal nature including family photographs. Advise regarding COI has been posted, but it has been ignored. Could someone investigate?

This is the second time the COI editor has made a false allegation of vandalism. After the first false accusation an admin. advised them that the edits were not vandalism, and indeed expressed sympathy for the edits. I raised the COI issues on the Admin. Notice Board (incidents) after which an Admin posted a message on the COI editor's talk page. The COI editor ignored the message and continued with COI edits.

Geelong Baptist College

Pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Two attempts recently to change a program named in the article from The Edge to The Edging ([76], [77]; I'm assuming as a reference to Edging (sexual practice)). The sentence in question is unsourced, but I found this & this that refer to the program as the former, while I couldn't find any sources that refer to it as the latter.

I found the first diff through Huggle, while the last diff went a few days before I noticed it by chance. Looking through the history, it appears that The edging was also inserted here in 2021 & wasn't removed until 2023. I therefore think that this page would benefit from pending-changes protection. Best,. ‍—‍a smart kitten[meow] 00:59, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@A smart kitten: What about removing the short and not particularly encyclopedic paragraph? It seems to have had a "citation needed" tag for a long time. Johnuniq (talk) 05:41, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Johnuniq: I could do that - it’s just that the topic area isn’t one that I’m overly familiar with (as well as it being more of a content decision than a counter-vandalism one - the latter being what I’m currently more familiar with). Having said that, though, I am now tempted to blow up the unsourced paragraphs.
Even if the sentence is removed, though, I still think the page would benefit from pending-changes - for example, edits in 2021 (the one linked above & this) also introduced other pieces of vandalism that weren’t caught for a fair while. I’m worried that even if the sentence is removed, the article would still be a probable target for other instances of (potentially long-lasting) vandalism, due to being an article about a school. All the best, ‍—‍a smart kitten[meow] 14:47, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The page may need protected, but it might not be the version you expect that gets protected because of the BLP issues. —C.Fred (talk) 15:33, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – After the page protection expired, vandal IPs and other users have struck again to vandalize the page. I think this should be protected indefinitely to conform to BLP standards. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 13:53, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. protection duration is usually slowly extended; it's quite rare that pages get indefinitely protected from the start. Lectonar (talk) 13:56, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, so I added the BLP tag. Hopefully it stays protected for a while. NoobThreePointOh (talk) 14:00, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure that BLP applies here, as this is a fictional character, not an actual living person. Joyous! Noise! 14:52, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Is it? Oh, I didn't notice. Do you want me to put the vandalism tag instead? NoobThreePointOh (talk) 14:56, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I was mulling this BLP connection for a bit, but the character seems to be so ingrained in Filipino culture that it might as well apply. Lectonar (talk) 14:57, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This looks like an edit war. I can see that the IP is trying to impose a new version, but I don't think either version reflects the source. I have updated the article to reflect the source. Hopefully that will encourage all editors to leave of the edit warring. Yaris678 (talk) 17:46, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Taxonomy/Aparaglossata

Indefinite template protection: Highly Visible Template. You see, that's the reason why the autotaxobox system is fundamentally broken. Big clades having their phylogeny in flux, meaning that we end up with obscure clades like this one for recent phylogenetic proposals, that end up transcluded on 150 thousand pages. And then, someone forgets to template protect it, and, well, you have a template transcluded on more than half of the insect pages that's a complete vulnerability. It could be solved by making skip-templates for all the insect orders directly calling Insecta as parent, so that this one is only transcluded in the handful of insect order pages. Probably a better solution than having to protect every single clade and likely missing some, although that might take a while (and a lot of template-protected edit requests) to implement. Really, we need skip-templates, putting template protection on this thing is more of a band-aid but the mere fact of this being a vulnerability already bugs me.

This is a content dispute in which both editors are editwarring over whether this is a documentary (which the OP added to it again after going to AN#) and whether the Nazis were the main victimes of WW3. I'm involved and don't think protection will be neutral. Page bans to let them duke it out on the talk page? Doug Weller talk 14:54, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. And...
Wikipedia's protection policy does not allow the administrator who instates a page protection because of an ongoing edit dispute to pick a particular version to protect. They have to protect the most recent version; at most they may revert blatant vandalism. In a content dispute it is impossible to make everyone happy; this is not the administrator's fault, it is simply a consequence of the underlying dispute. See The Wrong Version for an essay about this exact type of situation. There is no point in lobbying administrators to edit or revert a protected page, since they are generally not allowed to do that. If you're unhappy about the protected version, the fastest and best way to do something about it is to resolve the content dispute on the talk page and ask for the page to be unprotected. – robertsky (talk) 16:50, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Can we changed the Protection level from Semi-protection to Pending changes? Because the editing has been reduced JustYourImaginaryGuy (talk) 09:39, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Looks like the talk page edit requests are handled in a timely fashion, most of them being rejected.

North Korea

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: This might not be needed now that I have started an RfC, but there have been continued edit wars over the infobox. I'm not suggesting full protection though, since it's only a small part of the article that is getting edit warred. As far I know, this has been happening on-and-off for many years now, where a new or inexperienced editor will make a change, it gets reverted (usually with a string of further edit warring by other editors), and then when it comes time to discuss they are nowhere to be found. And it still seems to happen despite a note on the article saying not to change without consensus, which has been there since at least 2021 I believe. Sagflaps (talk) 16:02, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It is odd "someone" keeps changing it dispite the note and being reverted by multuple editors [88], [89], [90], [91], [92] Moxy- 16:08, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined No, protection is indeed not necessary now that you started an RFC. Sagflaps, you are lucky that most of Moxy's linked diffs are a month old because that kind of blithe defiance of existing consensus as indicated by not just an inline hidden comment next to the text you repeatedly changed but an edit notice would have moved me to block you from the page had it been brought to administrative attention in a timely fashion.

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I don't see much actual vandalism caused by the IPs. There is quite a lot of good anon editing, other than the confusion over the death date (which I believe is good faith, if mistaken). Joyous! Noise! 18:13, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well I mostly requested the protection so that the people who were going back and forth would actually discuss it on the talk page instead of the group constantly reverting each other. Shadow311 (talk) 19:47, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: One week of edit war waged by IP 82.0.40.72 Schopy1988 (talk) 08:56, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the IP is correct that Newsweek is not considered "Generally reliable" past 2013, per this RFC, so them removing your one addition using that source might be considered reasonable. Dennis Brown 2¢ 09:07, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The source is not "Newsweek" directly but a quote from an expert, Nicholas Drummond, who has confirmed the estimate as you can see in the talk page. Furthermore, I do not see it as behavior marked by good faith to cite a source for 2 years with a clear typographical error within it, then when the error is discovered, first the error and the original source are defended and then the source it's completely deleted.Schopy1988 (talk) 10:03, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done – Assuming we're talking about the last paragraph of Greek alphabet#Archaic variants, it begins with By the late fifth century BC, it was commonly used by many Athenians. In c. 403 BC, ... Then, at the end of the paragraph, it says By the end of the fourth century BC, ... In other words, it outlines a development in the course of nearly a century, so all is as it should be.

Reason: With his recent passing, there will be lots of people coming to this new article. There has been a little vandalism, though nothing too crazy.

The article is also being edited frequently, which results in lots of edit conflicts before you can publish changes. For this, I'm requesting semi-protection.

Note: While this draft was created by said now blocked user, it was created before the block, so it isn't a G5 deletion (which would have been my way of dealing with it, and fully protect after the deletion); but we shouldn't be fully protecting a draft which has just been declined, but not rejected outright.

Israel–Hamas war

In the "Sexual and gender-based violence' subsection under Allegations of War Crimes, the first paragraph ends with the sentence The New York Times reported that "videos of naked and bloodied women filmed by Hamas on the day of the attack, and photographs of bodies taken at the sites afterwards, suggest that women were sexually targeted by their attackers." (Reference #615 and 616)

Two paragraphs down, the second sentence is The BBC reported that "Videos of naked and bloodied women filmed by Hamas on the day of the attack, and photographs of bodies taken at the sites afterwards, suggest that women were sexually targeted by their attackers." (Reference 621)

Please add reference 621 to the first paragraph, and add 'and the BBC' following The New York Times, and remove the whole sentence in the third paragraph.

It's not pre-emptive. This article has been intermittently promotionally edited by 10+ SPA socks over the last 9 years. A user connected to the sock farm recently introduced themselves as "we" on a deletion discussion. This article is pretty clearly of interest to a paid reputation management firm which has been diligently disruptively editing for nearly a decade. Another Admin already indef semi'd the other affected article. Not trying to forum shop here, I just think this should be a pretty clear case of LTA requiring a semi.

I think this might be one of those cases where full protection might increase the odds of a real discussion from everyone, are you okay with leaving protection in place?

Eddie Kaye Thomas

Reason: Page was previously protected (diffs in link) for ten days. Hours after expiration, disruptive edits resumed by same IP 2601:205:4300:54F0. Editor received 48 hour ban. After expiration, unsourced edits continued yet again.

I have reverted dozens of unsourced, disruptive, and non-WP:RS edits by this user on this page alone since October 2023. This behavior extends to many other pages as well (Max Minghella, for one) and none of my requests in edit summaries or his talk pages have been acknowledged or heeded.

@Sumanuil: No, new editors are supposed to get a quick explanation mentioning WP:RS and the particular source which supports the current name. Supposing the explanation was in a section called "Name", you would add "please see Talk:Arabic rice#Name" in the reverting edit summary. That is about all we can do to alert the warriors.

@MaterialsPsych: I'm not questioning your decision, but, unless I have missed something, "Pending changes is supposed to be used after trying semi-protection" is incorrect, and better described extended-confirmed protection. The main reason to go for semi rather than PC is the frequency of the editing. In my view, avoiding reviewers having to look at spam is also a good reason, in borderline cases like this.

Therefore, I have reduced it to ECP. The protection log suggests that semiprotection wasn't working. ~Anachronist (talk) 09:08, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Courtesy ping as protecting admin @NinjaRobotPirate: was not notified. Zinnober9 (talk) 02:49, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well, nobody has ever made an edit request on the talk page. The semi-protection doesn't seem to be inconveniencing people very much. If an uninvolved admin thinks it's worth it to unprotect the page, I guess we can just use it as bait, like a honeypot. However, this is a really persistent LTA who makes death threats and returns to the same pages over the course of years. The IP who made that edit is currently blocked for 2 years. I understand that long-term blocks and semi-protection are a pain for uninvolved editors, but the solution is really quite easy: create an account. It's very rare that the pages end up under ECP.

Meitei Pangals

Reason:

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring attention to the Wikipedia page for "Meitei Pangal," which has been subject to frequent and inaccurate edits. Unfortunately, various attempts to rectify these changes have been unsuccessful.

To ensure the accuracy and integrity of the information presented on the Meitei Pangal page, I kindly request that you consider implementing page protection. This measure will help prevent further misinformation and maintain the reliability of the content.

I am committed to contributing valid and well-supported information to the page, and I believe that protecting it temporarily will allow for a more thoughtful and accurate representation.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I appreciate the work of the Wikipedia community in maintaining a reliable and accessible source of information. Nawajk12 (talk) 04:50, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Gsfelipe94@Marty2Hotty We really need to reach a consensus somewhere about what nationalities and flags were using for him, because the edit warring is getting crazy (even today at UFC Rankings and List of current UFC fighters it has been changed a handful of times). Nswix (talk) 15:46, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A discussion should be created on his talk page regarding that and if necessary the pages related to it should be protected from unregistered users. He represents Georgia in the UFC and he's listed related to that country in official medias. He "represents" Spain as well, but that doesn't necessarily mean the flag should be listed alongside or instead the other one. Gsfelipe94 (talk) 15:56, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
there's two discussions on his talk page and it's just Cassiopeia and I arguing with angry Georgian guys. Nswix (talk) 15:58, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've just read it and it seems pointless the way it went through. More editors should be gathered for a constructive discussion.

Not unprotected. If someone were to make an edit request that actually follows the edit request guideline by being followed by a complete and specific description of the request, so that an editor unfamiliar with the subject matter could complete the requested edit immediately then someone could update the article. Unfortunately, little or no effort has been made by anyone involved in the edit war to resolve the content dispute. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 17:23, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Because you knew I could do those things that you weren't capable of doing? Well, it worked.

And if your conscience is bothering you, you should soothe it with the knowledge that you may have just saved several more people from having to revert these disruptive edits.

I had discussed why the Lion of Judah flag was changed to the plain, green, yellow, red flag on the bottom of the talk page here [119] with this user User:Socialwave597, while we had a fruitful conversation regarding the adding of the flag due to my stance of making the Plain flag on the infobox which followed WP:SCHOLARSHIP rule, me and the user determined at the end that a high quality flag of the plain should be added, to be noted they also said they also wanted the Imperial lion of Judah flag to be next to the Infobox using the example of the Derg page, which had no other flag besides 1, so i went forth without any more objections from any other user to the talk page, and made the plain flag which is the national flag of the Ethiopian Empire, according to the sources which i listed at the talk page. So the gist is, please do not let users with 1 2-3 edits and newly created accounts to edit the page, who have showed more than likely to ignore the talk page.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent disruptive editing on the article; users adding in a supposed end date for the series, when it hasn't been officially confirmed by the network (outside of a few TV promos).

Note: @BrickMaster02: I'm on the fence so I'm going to let another administrator decide. I can't help but wonder if there isn't a better solution for television shows. We allow DOB to be sourced from social media, we allow sports transactions to be confirmed by the athlete, etc. I don't know what a better solution would look like, especially one compatible with WP:RS, but in the absence of a solution, perhaps a specific warning template like {{Current sports transaction}} would help.

Reason: Recent vandalism, unsourced claims and use of unreliable sources. More specifically:

  • In the past three months, since considerable updates and improvements, it has suffered from considerable instability.
  • It's GA co-nomination, and without further protection, it's nomination will likely need to be dropped due to this.
  • It's a high-profile/traffic BLP that has repeatedly created a "moth to the flames" type scenario.
  • There are currently more reverts to the page than useful contributions.

Extended-confirmed protection as semi-protection is failing.

CommunityNotesContributor (talk) 23:57, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended confirmed protected indefinitely. This is pretty borderline. On the one hand, the cadence of unsourced and questionable edits is not really that much more than we would typically see with a high-profile article. On the other hand, the article is already under indefinite semi-protection and the nature of some of the unsourced and questionable edits to this BLP are of a sensitive nature. Indefinite is applied with the understanding that "indefinite" is not synonymous with "permanent". Chetsford (talk) 00:04, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Guy de Rougemont

Extended content

Guy du Temple de Rougemont, known as Guy de Rougemont, born April 23, 1935 in Paris and died August 19, 2021 in Montpellier, is a French painter, watercolorist, draftsman and sculptor, having spent a large part of his life between Paris and Marsillargues , in the south of France.

A multidisciplinary artist, he seeks to remove the border between the arts, particularly between sculpture and painting, and intervenes in everyday places, in squares and in the streets, while creating objects and furniture. Among his famous works are his Cloud table (1970) designed for the decorator Henri Samuel (1904-1996), his Coloring of a Museum (1974), a temporary artistic intervention during which he covered strips of Colored PVC columns of the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris, as well as his Environment for a highway, where he installed urban sculptures over 30 km along the A4 highway section La Veuve-Sainte Ménéhould, France (1977 ).

Member of the Academy of Fine Arts, he was the son of General Jean-Louis du Temple de Rougemont (1910–1990).

Biography

Childhood and family

Guy du Temple de Rougemont was born on April 23, 1935 in Paris. His father, Jean-Louis du Temple de Rougemont (1910-1990) was a Cavalry Officer. His mother, Louise Marie Cécile Lejeune10 (1913-2002), is the descendant through her father of General Baron Lejeune (1775-1848), battle painter. Through her mother, Marguerite Murat (1886-1956), she is the descendant of Caroline Murat (1782-1839), sister of Napoleon I. Guy de Rougemont is the eldest of five children. His brother, François de Rougemont, is a civil engineer and graduate of Harvard Business School. Her sister, Cécile Marie Edith du Temple de Rougemont (1936-2000), Duchess of Lorges, was a student of André Chastel (1912-1990) at the Institute of Art History and allowed her to discover Florence, guided by the illustrious art historian himself. His second sister, Laure, Princesse de Beauvau Craon (1943-2017), was President of Sotheby’s in France. Finally, his younger sister, Anne de Rougemont, was the assistant of Aimé Maeght, then attached to the I.C.O.M, and a member of the Association of Friends of the Georges Pompidou Museum, before being the assistant of Madame David -Weill, President of the Union of Decorative Arts, a union itself created by Monsieur Taigny, great-grandfather of Madame Louise Lejeune, mother of the artist.

Youth and training

Guy de Rougemont was exposed to art very early on, because his American paternal grandmother introduced him to watercolors very early on. After the Second World War, Jean-Louis du Temple de Rougemont was appointed deputy military attaché in Great Britain. Guy de Rougemont spends his holidays there, which allows him to visit London museums. He lived for five years in a boarding school in Normandy, at the Roches Normandie school. In 1957, his father was appointed to the Pentagon as part of the Atlantic Pact, so the whole family moved to Washington for a year, where Guy de Rougemont attended an American school and exhibited his first watercolor. His schooling ended at the Cours Bergson in Paris. In 1953, he prepared for the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs (ENSAD), in the studio of the painter Bernard Cathelin (1919-2004), rue de la Grande Chaumière. He was admitted to Arts-Déco in Paris on May 24, 1954 and studied painting during his training - notably in the studio of Marcel Gromaire - and quickly participated in his first exhibitions, first abroad. In 1962, he presented his pictorial work at the d'Arcy Galleries in New York then at the Ateneo Mercantil gallery in Valencia in 19646. He stayed from 1962 to 1964 at the Casa de Velázquez in Madrid after obtaining a state scholarship, where he became friends with Jean Canavaggio. He participated in the Paris Biennale of 1965 and the Salon de Mai of 1966, at the invitation of the painter Jean Messagier. He spent 1965 in New York, with his friends Jean and Irène Amic, where he met young artists on the New York scene such as Andy Warhol, Robert Indiana and Frank Stella. He opens up to large format acrylic paint, measuring the strength of simplified, refined shapes and the power of solid color. His work is often assimilated to the movements of Pop art and Minimalism, whose forms he draws inspiration from, without claiming to be so. Arnaud d'Hauterives, permanent secretary of the Institut de France, evokes this founding trip during the reception of Guy de Rougemont under the dome, a few decades later: "This stay will be a revelation for you, you will receive the 'true lesson' of the great French painters that you admire, Léger, Matisse, Bonnard, seen through another eye, that is to say removed from all appearances. »

The work

Geometric abstraction from 1965

After his return from New York, Guy de Rougemont radically changed his artistic practice. From then on, four major periods can be outlined in his career, defined from the geometric shapes he uses to compose his works. In 1965, he introduced the ellipse, which he developed on the surface of his canvas. In 1967, at the request of his friend Gérard Gaveau6, responsible for advertising for Fiat automobiles, he created his first environment in the Fiat hall, on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. He places canvases cut out in the shape of ellipses in the exhibition space, establishing a dialogue between art and automobiles. Following this event, he created his first objects in volume. During the 1970s, he used the cylinder, a geometric shape that he considered to be the perfect combination of circles and lines. He uses it to place his polychrome volumes in space, creating large cylinders, also nicknamed "totems", "columns" or even "beacons", which take place in urban space, as on Place Albert Thomas in Villeurbanne, or in the interior space, with small sculptures. The Coloring of a Museum, at the Museum of Modern Art of the City of Paris in 1974, marks the peak of his use of the cylinder. The artist covers the twenty columns of the museum portico with colored PVC, in an ephemeral manner, playing with borders, placing his work between interior and exterior, on the museum square13. At the end of the decade and particularly during the 1980s, the artist put aside the cylinder, favoring the raster surface. He created one of his major works in 1986, the mosaic of colored marbles which adorns the pavement of the Bellechasse square, in front of the Orsay Museum. Finally, from the 2000s and until the end of his life, the artist deployed the serpentine line, marking a return to the use of curved shapes.

Urban sculptures and installations

Among his many achievements, let us mention those of the Saint-Louis hospital, the Marne-la-Vallée RER station, the square in front of the Orsay museum, the Hakone Open Air Museum in Japan, and the Place Albert-Thomas in Villeurbanne, the Hofgarten of Bonn, the metropolitan park of Quito in Ecuador, the reception and care center of Nanterre, where he created a 300 meter long mural, the sculptures of the A4 motorway between Châlon- en-Champagne and Sainte-Ménéhould, the paving carpet 140 meters long and comprising 28 types of colored marble, called "the great ribbon" located in the Pierre Beregovoy hall of the Colbert building, at the French Ministry of Finance located in the district from Bercy (Paris 12th). Many monumental sculptures are also commissioned for private collections in Dubai, Marrakech and Mallorca, among others.

The graphic work

Guy de Rougemont is a painter and lithographer. During his trip to New York, Guy de Rougemont also learned the technique of screen printing, originally used by the Americans to mark crates of goods using the stencil system, which was later taken up by artists for their graphic research. One of them was Andy Warhol, whom Guy de Rougemont met through his roommate in New York, the painter Marisol. On his return to France, Guy de Rougemont produced numerous screen prints. He is one of the figures who introduced the practice of screen printing in France, at the time of the events of May 1968, at the Atelier populaire des beaux-arts. He told Laurent Gervereau, in 1988, how this happened: “On May 14, it must be half past nine, ten o'clock in the evening. I come home and there is a general meeting. In this general assembly, I recognize a certain number of my painter friends who see me, who wave to me. The Beaux-Arts lithography workshop is in the process of producing a poster… […] I speak up and say that I know a quick, easy, inexpensive process to implement… And my comrades, my friends, make me responsible. They tell me: “that’s very good, since you know that, tomorrow morning you bring us the equipment and we’ll start a screen printing workshop…”. This is how he became the technician of the popular fine arts workshop, but he always maintained that he had not designed any posters himself. For several years, he shared his studio in Marais, rue des Quatre Fils, with his friend Éric Seydoux, with whom he produced screen prints for other artists and for various social events.

Guy de Rougemont is also a furniture designer. In 1969, for his exhibition at the Suzy Langlois gallery in Paris, he presented his first “Volumes” in cardboard and published his first carpet, called Free Form Carpet6, which marked the beginning of his research in the third dimension. In 1970, he designed his famous Nuage table ("cloud" coffee table, in English), for the decorator Henri Samuel, and the same year, he published a cloud lamp and various utility objects, such as a placemat, with the Germain Gallery in Paris.

In 1974, he collaborated with the Manufacture des Gobelins for whom he created a tapestry, The 7 Pillars of Wisdom, presented at the Lausanne Tapestry Biennale in 1977.

From the 1980s, he published several sets of furniture with Artcurial: the Transparences furniture, the Diderot furniture in 1986 and the Du Deffand furniture in 1989, in homage to Madame du Deffand, a famous 18th century letter writer, who three centuries earlier , lived and held his Literary Salon in the artist's studio, rue des Quatre-Fils.

The last years

Widower of actress Anne-Marie Deschodt (1938–2014), he lived mainly in Marsillargues during his last years. He continued to collaborate with the Diane de Polignac gallery in Paris, with which he created furniture pieces and exhibitions, as well as with the Galerie du Passage, where he exhibited for the last time in 2017.

Recognition and posterity

A member of the Institute, he was elected member of the Academy of Fine Arts, painting section, on December 17, 19973 in the chair of Jean Bertholle. He was Commander of the Order of Arts and Letters.

In 2022, he will benefit from an exhibition "Homage to Guy de Rougemont"24 at the Bouvet-Ladubay Center in Saumur (Val de Loire), organized with the participation of the Diane de Polignac gallery. His works are also present in important collections, notably at the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, the Museum of Decorative Arts, the International Museum of the Salvador Allende Resistance (Santiago de Chile), the National Center of Plastic Arts and the Museum of modern and contemporary art in Saint-Étienne.

Guy de Rougemont had no children. The joint ownership formed by his heirs — his brother, his sister Anne and his nephews — is managed by his nephew Laurent de Rougemont and his wife Sophie de Rougemont.

And now you've moved the discussion to your preferred venue without responding to the other editor's attempt to initiate a conversation on the talk page, even just to inform them of the new discussion. That seems like an inordinate amount of WP:GAMING to win a disagreement over one line in a disambiguation page. Daniel Case even asked you to respond. Finally, "vandalism" being asserted is an opportunity for education, not carte blanche. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 01:36, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've semi-protected this article for 24 hours as a stopgap against disruptive editing while discussion continues here about longer protection. — The Anome (talk) 18:44, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On that note, to all those reading, the justification I believe for indefinite protection is that ultimately this being a GENSEX article makes it at all times a target for IP vandalism, but its inevitable low traffic once the news cycle moves on means that such vandalism may take a while for anyone to actually notice and correct. Thus, an easy filter against this is indefinite semi. Snokalok (talk) 18:48, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's a relatively new article, though ... my feeling is deciding now that it needs indef semi is a little pre-emptive (although based on past GENSEX protections, particularly the very similar Murder of Brianna Ghey, it's likely headed that way). We should give the community its chance to protect the article, or at the very least not impose indef semi without some sort of consensus. Daniel Case (talk) 20:39, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I dunno Daniel Case. There were around a dozen reverts earlier today related to deadname violations, there have been maybe half a dozen pronoun changes, and several other disruptive edits surrounding the killed teen's gender. I'm all for giving the community a chance to protect the article, but I think exhausting the community for something that could be more gracefully handled with semi-protection is not a great idea. With just the deadname violations from earlier, I'm already halfway to the 3RR brightline, and another editor is technically over it though a BLP/BDP exemption justification could be made.
Due to the circumstances surrounding the death of this teen, it's adjacency to the perennial culture war machine Libs of TikTok, and as you admit the similarities to Murder of Brianna Ghey, I really don't think we're in pre-emptive territory here. I think we're in prevention of ongoing disruption territory. Sideswipe9th (talk) 20:57, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I second this position. Even after the news has died down, this will remain one of those critical subjects that will continue receiving just enough attention that reverting vandalism on this article will remain a potentially infrequent, but consistent chore for editors. I find it more reasonable to consider semi-protection an act of preventative maintenance. Agentdoge (talk) 21:12, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't disagree. But we should still have some sort of formal allowance for "ECP and 1RR from the get-go" in the case of articles about, or mostly about, individuals whose gender identity calls for different pronouns and/or attracts deadnaming. This is so common with trans or NB individuals that I would defy you to find an article about one where this hasn't had to be done.

But it is nevertheless an extraordinary step to take that, like the other four where this kind of protection is permitted ... to my recollection, Armenia-Azerbaijan articles directly related to the conflict, Arab-Israeli conflict articles very broadly construed (especially in the present situation), the Russo-Ukrainian War and South Asian castes, tribes or ethnicities. All of those as far as I know are the product of some discussion that concluded that pre-emptive protection is justified in these cases. And I would very much prefer we had this discussion in this instance rather than reinvent this particular wheel everytime the subject comes up, because tacitly encouraging this kind of administrative IAR behavior has not always led to the best results in the past. Daniel Case (talk) 21:26, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But we should still have some sort of formal allowance for "ECP and 1RR from the get-go" in the case of articles about, or mostly about, individuals whose gender identity calls for different pronouns and/or attracts deadnaming It's funny you say that, because I had previously been thinking that perhaps the provisions of WP:ARBECR should be extended to cover GENSEX. That's not without its own issues though, the recent discussions on the scope of the "edit requests only" have revealed some of the shortcomings of that approach. I think though, because GENSEX is an ArbCom set of sanctions and not the community enacted General Sanctions, such a request would have to go through ARCA, at least as the first port of call. Sideswipe9th (talk) 21:59, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I totally agree. That is exactly what I am advocating.
Where should we open such a discussion? Daniel Case (talk) 22:28, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This'd probably need a little bit of planning first, at least to get evidence in support of the request together. After that, it'd be an amendment request at WP:ARCA. Ultimately the decision is up to ArbCom. We could do the prep work on your or my talk page? Sideswipe9th (talk) 22:37, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Suniel Shetty filmography

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent non-constructive/disruptive edits from 106.205.136.0/21. Maybe p-block that range from this article for a long period instead of just a short semi-protection against all IPs?.  — Archer1234 (t·c) 12:25, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

106.205.136.0/21 has just been blocked for 2 weeks, but there are other IPs (IPv4 and IPv6) that have previously made the same sorts of disruptive edits on this page. Might be worth leaving the page unprotected as a honeypot to see to which ranges they hop next.  — Archer1234 (t·c) 13:37, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thin blue line

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because ....... . 98.11.54.102 (talk) 18:53, 23 February 2024 (UTC) The Thin Blue Line Flag has nothing to do with Trump supporters and their rallies, although they may have appeared there in the past, it has no direct relation to conservative thinking or being a Trump supporter.

Checking to see if protection is necessary. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 03:31, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support: I was about to make a request as well, and I'm considering making a 3RR report. Indefinite WP:SEMI or WP:ECP would be very welcome. I'm prepping an SPI, but due to WP:OUTING concerns, I'm awaiting advice from @Aoidh. In addition to that, there's a COI and lots of WP:GAMING and purposefully causing link rot in an effort to undermine consensus. The person in question travels around the globe a lot, hence the slew of random IPs involved. So in lieu of indefinite extended protection, a long enough semi-protection would be very helpful. That way, the SPI (and the subsequent COI/Vandalism resolution) can get a chance to mitigate further issues once protection is lifted.
ConcurrentState (talk) 03:53, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If the vandalism is mostly or entirely from IP addresses then ECP is not justified. If there are disagreements about the content in the article, the first stop should be the article talk page.

List of missions to the Moon

Please change the page protection rights from open to semi-protected. IP editors are coming and unanimously editing the mission outcomes of SLIM and IM-1 mission without discussions on this page as you see in history https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_missions_to_Mars&action=history . They don't discuss and want to know that Whether a lander ended up on its side, nose, or facing an unexpected direction are not inherently criteria of mission success. The criteria are whether each payload was enabled to perform its designed function or does the lander full-fill the mission requirements for that agency for that mission. SLIM lander main objective is landing so successful. Though im-1 has landed tilted here, only Moon Phases Art installation is blocked that is passive and rest payloads are working. Communication bleak signals say, its a case of priority to get max Scientific results, so delay. Thus like for some virgin Galactic flights are suborbital at 85+km, landing success (if agency needs that only) or payload working give a mission success designation. —🪦VSVNB1058 (2020-2023) (TALK) 15:59, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of missions to the Moon

Reason: Please change the page protection rights from open to semi-protected. There is high level of IP vandalism. IP editors are coming and unanimously editing the mission outcomes of SLIM and IM-1 mission without discussions on this page as you see in history https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_missions_to_Mars&action=history . They don't discuss and want to know that Whether a lander ended up on its side, nose, or facing an unexpected direction are not inherently criteria of mission success. The criteria are whether each payload was enabled to perform its designed function or does the lander full-fill the mission requirements for that agency for that mission. SLIM lander main objective is landing so successful. Though im-1 has landed tilted here, only Moon Phases Art installation is blocked that is passive and rest payloads are working. Communication bleak signals say, its a case of priority to get max Scientific results, so delay. Thus like for some virgin Galactic flights are suborbital at 85+km, landing success (if agency needs that only) or payload working give a mission success designation. —🪦VSVNB1058 (2020-2023) (TALK) 18:14, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ashfield_Independents

Reason: Vandalism. See talk page. A number of edits are being made to include a 'Criminal Charges' sections. Possibly as a politically motivated thing to do. No other UK party has a 'criminal charges section'. See page talk section and various edits. NottsPolitics (talk) 15:10, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended confirmed protected for a period of two weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This way neither you nor the IP will be able to edit it and will have to work it out on the talk page. The absence of any such section from our articles on other British political parties is not a valid reason by itself to remove it, not when it's adequately sourced. Nor does this argument scale well as there's a huge difference between the larger parties, which claim hundreds or even thousands of current and former elected officials at all levels of government, and a very small one that has fielded candidates in one very small area of England. Although, I am not sure it deserves a separate section, at least not when we have (as noted on the talk page) separate articles about some of these people, including the party leader.

Hello! Do you have a similar for Central Europe as Hungary locates geographically there? I think the Eastern European concept was used in the cold war due to the iron curtain. OrionNimrod (talk) 22:07, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I am not putting this under CTOPS yet, since this is the first time we've had to protect this article in years. But it would properly be under ARBEE, as a) as the article states (and indeed the recent edit warring has been about), not all ethnic Hungarians live in present-day Hungary; quite a few live in other nearby countries such as Romania, which no one considers part of anything but Eastern Europe, and b) ARBEE calls for the topic area to be broadly construed.
I'd also add a c): Hungary and the Soviet Union had a short border, which is today the border between Hungary and Ukraine, making "Eastern Europe" more arguable as a categorization. Daniel Case (talk) 22:46, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

But I can't fault them for edit warring when they weren't warned about anything for the last three weeks. Nor do I see a reason under BLP to exclude this if/when it is reported in a reliable source. ... in fact, a journalist getting charged with witness intimidation isn't something that happens every day.

@Daniel Quinlan Two edits were made yesterday by an IP user at 05:46 (UTC) and 19:26 (UTC) respectively and though both IPs are different, both the edits claimed a certain Pia Hargraves to be Prince George's official future girlfriend. Also "2601:182:1080:7DE6:" is common to both IPs. Its the same person. Just wanted to tell you that I am a very peaceful person and that if possible please make sure that the page is not unprotected.

Boston Latin Academy

Reason: I wrote the copy for this page for Girls' Latin School. This material is copyrighted in my book, "Her Greatness Proclaim". Some one came in and changed it to Boston Latin Academy and then protected it. I want it changed back for copywriter infringement and protected as Girls' Latin School. I have tried editting it will not accept the changes. GLSpres (talk) 12:02, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The current page has been built up by many different editors since it was created in 2006 as Boston Latin Academy. The book "Her Greatness Proclaim" was published in 2014 according to Worldcat. What parts of the article are you saying were copied from the book? Malcolmxl5 (talk) 13:50, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@GLSpres: If we take your claims at face value, then we would have to delete all revisions of the page you wrote as you appear to be rejecting Wikipedia's content licences in favour of an all-rights-reserved copyright, which would make everything you added copyright violations. Are you sure you want to press this matter? If so, I can start the process of figuring out what revisions need nuked. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 22:13, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not unprotected because there is no protection on that page. Requester is being reverted by other editors. Disputes like this should be discussed on the article talk page, not here. If there is a case to be made at all, it would be for deletion of this article due to being a copyright violation, but the copyright detection search doesn't turn up anything significant. ~Anachronist (talk) 03:49, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: The protection of this page is no longer necessary as there is no widely known controversy surrounding this page and there has been no spike of interest in the page Hereforthefacts1 (talk) 01:07, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined. @Hereforthefacts1: What you claim is false. There has indeed been a spile of interest over the last couple of months. Given the unusually lengthy protection log, I am not confident that disruption won't resume if protection is reduced. If you want to suggest a change, make an edit request on the article's talk page. ~Anachronist (talk) 03:39, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Admin-only protection is no longer needed because ECP protection has been implemented. I am requesting that the protection be downgraded to ECP protection so that a draft can be accepted if ready for acceptance. There is a draft, which is not ready for acceptance.

due to persistent LTA edits from IPs over the course of several years. I will also be tagging article with {{primary sources}}, as this appears to be an underlying issue that partially caused the edit warring in this case; the content the LTA objected to may well be unjustified, but removing a source and half of the information cited to it while leaving a full paragraph of now-unreferenced information is extremely disruptive editing even before we get to the edit warring and name-calling. signed, Rosguill talk 20:12, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
