Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Article is gaining off-wiki attention following a tweet from @PopFusionHQ that's resulted in an edit war regarding some recent sentences in the Racism and misogyny accusations section. Most involved have an account, but the most persistent of the bunch is an IP. I'm pretty sure I went about the steps of dispute resolution entirely wrong, I only recently leveled it on the talk page before I had figured that out and I'm not even sure if that's a valid step at this point, but either way, there is something that needs addressing here.

Though user should have alter page content based on their personal opinion, facts needs to mentioned correctly on the site. Current state of the page is not vandalizing any IP, Company is a operating various scam tactics to defraud customers.
The Page and need to contain severe warning for its practices and a section need to be added for its developing controversy.

2025 German federal election

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – this election was scheduled for Sept. 2025 and is very likely to be brought forward to earlier in the year, as the article text already notes. Anon users are repeatedly editing the article as if the date has already been changed. however, the constitutional process to do so has not taken place yet and will not for at least 2 more weeks. thus, editing the page to assert the earlier date as fact now is adding materially wrong information, i.e., vandalism. If possible, request semi for 2 weeks, until the process should be completed. Xenon54 (talk) 01:32, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

talk:2024 United States presidential election

Reason: Like with many protected political pages, the real-world result of the "protection" is that a small handful of editors who feel strongly about the topic end up holding the article and its talk page hostage. Specifically, for this talk page there have been multiple instances of an editor trying to address what they feel is inappropriate bias in the article and having their discussion shut down and archived before any real discussion can take place - not because there aren't editors who feel similarly, but because those editors cannot even engage in discussion on the talk page.

I can understand and support leaving the protection on the main article, but limiting discussion on the talk page is a step too far and is starting to feel antithetical to the mission of Wikipedia. 71.210.42.253 (talk) 14:38, 3 December 2024 (UTC)

Gaza genocide 3

The 70% figure in both the primary and the secondary source refers to the deaths that were verified by the UN Human Rights Office, not the totality of deaths in Gaza.

Accordingly, the current phrasing "70% of Palestinian deaths in Gaza are women and children" is inaccurate and should be changed to "70% of the 8,119 verified deaths were women and children" Zlmark (talk) 06:10, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

@Zlmark I agree with this - Wikipedia needs to be accurate and reliable. Things like this are pushing millions of people away from Wikipedia, when we want to do the opposite. We want this to change.

2016 Nice truck attack

Reason: Since 12th November, the same IP, 131.251.10.14 , has been making the same edit to the opening para, (removing a footnote that clarifies that the victims died over several weeks following the event). The alteration is less accurate, less complete and undoes a relatively stable version.

The IP has -several times - been invited to go to talk, but does not engage. The IP is not guilty of vandalism, but they are guilty of an over-simplistic interpretation IMO. Temporary partial protection requested to force the IP to engage on talk if they wish to make the case for the edit. Pincrete (talk) 04:53, 4 December 2024 (UTC)

Lone (caste)

Reason: Some editors during the past couple of months are intentionally removing academic referenced material and replacing it with non-academic material containing petty and childish statements like "lones have fair complexion", confusing "Lahara" (modern Lar in Kashmir) with "Lohara" situated outside of Kashmir as the origin of Lones. While all the academic references clearly state that the it is Lahara (Lar within Kashmir valley north of Srinagar city) and not Lohara which is located outside of Kashmir valley in Poonch area.

Evie Magazine

Reason: Hello! There are biased actors who repeatedly keep changing this page using only a couple of hit-pieces as sources. This is completely unfair. It is not a political magazine (there isn't even a politics section). It's a lifestyle and cultural publication. If Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire, Refinery29, Cosmopolitan are not described as "Politically liberal", than Evie should not be described as "politically conservative." This violates Wikipedia's own rules of bias. I've repeatedly included information that is factual and directly taken from the site's own page, and it keeps getting removed.

Also, just as a note, we can't copy-paste from external websites and incorporate that content into the article, as you did here when you copied the about us into the article. Use in this manner could constitute a copyright violation, particularly because we re-license our text commercially and without restrictions, which probably goes beyond down-the-road fair use claims. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:30, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Declined If another administrator sees this differently, I've no objection to a different decision. However, I've looked at every diff done to the article (minus the oversighted ones), and while there is some vandalism, it's not a lot. I count five vandalism edits to the article. I do see considerable contributions from IPs and new accounts that are productive. I'm reluctant to add protection to an article where there is quite a bit of productive activity on an article from such users, and where the vandalism rate is not particularly high. --Hammersoft (talk) 00:15, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Syria

Reason: High traffic page due to recent events. Numerous users, without consensus on the talk page, have changed the article's infobox to represent the opposition, despite consensus to change the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC never being attempted in the first place.

In addition, though I know this is unrelated to a lock request: Revert Ba'athist Syria to a redirect to Syria. The decision to make such an article was not reached by consensus either. TheodoresTomfooleries (talk) 03:17, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I've upped the protection to WP:ECP. The larger problem here is that we've got multiple WP:XC accounts that are currently in a dispute about what flag to use, among other reasons, and I don't think it's a good idea to fully protect the article given that this is a rapidly changing situation. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:34, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Due to the recent dismissal of the manslaugter charge (and apparent Fox News coverage), there's a high quantity of IPs arguing against consensus, reliable sources, and NPOV (7 in the past three days, not counting additional responses or the last days of November).

+1 Reason: High level of vandalism by users on this page changing the boxoffice figure without citing reliable source. I can not say if canvassing or socks are attempted here.

Meja massacre

Reason: Repeated removal of sourced content by IP Yung Doohickey (talk) 21:59, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Yngdoohickey is inflating numbers in articles and POV pushing. Every source says 377 victims. Even in the article itself it says: "As of March 2008, the remains of 345 massacre victims have been identified and returned to Kosovo and 32 remain missing". He found an old source speculating on the numbers and wants to add it. There is memorial and commemoration every year for the victims and reports, every source says 377 victims, even Albanian sources [27] [28] [29] [30] [31]

He wants to put the article into protection so his inflated number stays and that's wrong. --2607:FEA8:101E:CE00:7D91:2CAD:FEF4:5B00 (talk) 22:54, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Rent control in the United States

Reason: Anon has been trying for many months to remove or negate a particular statement she does not like. It is usually quickly reverted, and Anon has been advised on the need to change the consensus first but ignores that advice. It was temporarily protected in July, but Anon is now back again. It should be permanently protected so only autoconfirmed editors can edit it. --Slugger O'Toole (talk) 21:03, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. There have been five IP edits to the page since PC was added in July, and only two since the first of October. That's not nearly enough to justify permanent semi-protection. Pending changes seems to be working just fine. Katietalk 21:32, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Bleona

Reason: The Wikipedia page for Bleona, an Albanian - American singer and entertainer, has been subjected to frequent edits and vandalism over the years, leading to concerns about the accuracy of the information presented. Due to the nature of Wikipedia being an open-source platform where anyone can contribute, there have been instances where individuals have deliberately changed key facts or introduced incorrect details, sometimes to mislead fans or tarnish the artist's reputation. These edits may include fabricated information or exaggerated claims, which can distort the public’s perception of Bleona's career and personal life.

The protection of the Bleona Wikipedia page has become necessary to prevent further harm caused by such misinformation. By restricting editing access to trusted contributors, Wikipedia can better ensure that the information about Bleona remains accurate and reliable. This protection helps safeguard fans from being misled and ensures that the page reflects the true nature of her achievements and contributions to music and entertainment. Given the high potential for misinformation on celebrity pages, such protective measures are critical for maintaining the integrity of Wikipedia as a resource and preventing the spread of false narratives that can damage public figures' reputations.

Steps (pop group)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – The protection level should be upgraded to EC for the same reason that the page Steps discography is - unfortunately, semi-protection proves ineffective at stopping the "Hanoi vandal" LTA from attacking this page, as they will then game the autoconfirmed permission on old burner accounts to bypass the semi-protection and continue with their disruptive edits. Although they've only made one edit with just one account so far which has already been blocked, it's only a matter of time before they fully restore their edits using another AC-gamed throwaway account. Worth noting that the previous EC protections on this page were also because of this one LTA. — AP 499D25 (talk) 23:36, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Bleona

Reason: The Wikipedia page for Bleona, an Albanian singer and entertainer, has been subjected to frequent edits and vandalism over the years, leading to concerns about the accuracy of the information presented. Due to the nature of Wikipedia being an open-source platform where anyone can contribute, there have been instances where individuals have deliberately changed key facts or introduced incorrect details, sometimes to mislead fans or tarnish the artist's reputation. These edits may include fabricated information or exaggerated claims, which can distort the public’s perception of Bleona's career and personal life.

The protection of the Bleona Wikipedia page has become necessary to prevent further harm caused by such misinformation. By restricting editing access to trusted contributors, Wikipedia can better ensure that the information about Bleona remains accurate and reliable. This protection helps safeguard fans from being misled and ensures that the page reflects the true nature of her achievements and contributions to music and entertainment. Given the high potential for misinformation on celebrity pages, such protective measures are critical for maintaining the integrity of Wikipedia as a resource and preventing the spread of false narratives that can damage public figures' reputations.

Reason: Requesting 3-Month Semi-Protection. The article has been plagued by an IP-user who is changing IPs every new round of edits, who is purposefully adding unsourced content. Below is a listed timeline of their IPs. Checking the edit history shows it is the same content being changed that is also being reverted.

Yes, that is 8 different IPs trying to make the same unsourced change. Once reverted, they switch IPs. Blocks will not solve this issue, but a three-month Semi-Protection would. Six months is being requested as this article was briefly previously EC protected in November 2024 (since expired). At least since October 2024, an IP user matching the same DUCK as the recent user can be traced back to, so this is a multi-month occurrence, hence the 3 month request.

Example Article Name

I would like to request that... (To follow up on the rejection of my previous edit request, my proposal is to shift the focus from the past to the present. We should stop referring to the Arameans as if they are no longer extant. When discussing the historical Arameans in the 'History' tab, please specify them as 'ancient Arameans.'

Additionally, the "Top" tab should be moved to the "History" tab, as it discusses the Arameans of antiquity.

Instead, the "Top" tab should include an introduction to the modern Arameans, such as the following:

---

    • Modern Arameans**

The **Arameans** are an indigenous ethnic group native to the **Near East**, with their most prominent historical and cultural presence in **southeastern Turkey**, particularly in the **region of Tur Abdin**. Modern Arameans trace their cultural and historical lineage to the ancient Arameans, a Semitic people who originated in the Levant and rose to prominence during the first millennium BCE. The Arameans played a significant role in shaping the linguistic, cultural, and religious heritage of the Near East and Mesopotamia, particularly through the spread of the Aramaic language.[1][2]

Today, modern Arameans primarily identify with Christian communities, including the Syriac Orthodox, Syriac Catholic, and Maronite churches. Some Arameans also identify as Assyrians or Chaldeans based on ecclesiastical or regional distinctions, though all share linguistic and cultural roots connected to the ancient Arameans and their legacy.[3][4]

      1. Language and Cultural Legacy

The Aramaic language, introduced by the ancient Arameans, became the lingua franca of the Near East during the first millennium BCE and maintained its significance under various empires, including the Neo-Assyrian and Neo-Babylonian Empires. Today, **Neo-Aramaic dialects**, such as **Turoyo**, are spoken by Aramean communities, particularly in southeastern Turkey, northeastern Syria, and the diaspora. These dialects represent some of the oldest continuously spoken languages, with a rich literary and liturgical tradition still used in Christian rites.[5][6][7]

Aramaic has also influenced other languages, including Hebrew and Arabic, and played a pivotal role in cultural and religious exchanges in the ancient world. Its historical significance is highlighted by its use as the language spoken by Jesus, cementing its importance within Christian heritage.[8][9]

      1. Religious Identity

The modern Arameans are predominantly Christian, adhering to denominations that use Classical Syriac as a liturgical language. These include the **Syriac Orthodox Church**, the **Syriac Catholic Church**, and, to some extent, the **Maronite Church**. The Arameans were among the earliest groups to embrace Christianity, alongside Assyrians, Greeks, Armenians, and Nabataeans. Christianity remains a core aspect of Aramean identity and has profoundly shaped their cultural preservation over centuries.[10][11]

      1. Geographic Distribution and Modern Diaspora

The traditional homeland of the Arameans includes parts of modern-day southeastern Turkey (notably **Tur Abdin**), Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq. Within Turkey, the monasteries and villages of Tur Abdin remain a vital center of Aramean cultural and religious life. Political instability, civil wars, and regional conflicts have forced many Arameans to migrate. Today, large diaspora communities exist in **Europe**, particularly in **Sweden**, **Germany**, and **the Netherlands**, as well as in **North America** and **Australia**.[12][13]

Despite these challenges, Arameans have remained active in preserving their identity, culture, and language. Neo-Aramaic language education, religious practices, and cultural advocacy are central to their efforts in maintaining their heritage in both their traditional homelands and diaspora.[14][15]

      1. Historical Challenges and Modern Advocacy

Aramean communities have faced numerous challenges throughout history, including forced displacement, assimilation pressures, and cultural erasure. During the early 20th century, the **Sayfo genocide** (1915–1917) led to the mass killing and displacement of Arameans, alongside other Christian minorities, during the collapse of the Ottoman Empire.[16][17]

More recently, the rise of extremist groups in **Syria** and **Iraq**, such as **ISIS**, has threatened the survival of Aramean communities in their traditional homelands. These groups have targeted Arameans and other minorities, leading to further displacement and endangerment of their cultural heritage.[18][19]

In response, Aramean advocacy organizations have worked to preserve their language, culture, and history. This includes efforts to gain recognition as a distinct ethnic group in countries such as Sweden and Israel, where significant Aramean communities exist. Additionally, restoration of historical monuments, documentation of their cultural practices, and promotion of Neo-Aramaic education are integral to these preservation efforts.[20][21]

Talk:Syrian civil war

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – While this is a bit extraordinary, there are many unregistered/IP users who appear to be complaining about the map in their own section on the talk page, rendering the talk page very long and the conversation scattered. If the page could be protected, and users directed to the map discussion on Commons, I think this would effectively improve the encyclopedia and the maintenance thereof. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 19:44, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

This does not appear to be a request for page protection. If this is a dispute over what should be in the article, discuss it on the article talk page; the talk page is unprotected.

Special Operations Forces (Ukraine)

Reason: I have submitted both to the talk page and to the administrator a well researched and sourced addition to this page pertaining to Ukrainian special forces fighting Russians in Syria and no one has answered me, therefore this page cannot be updated based on new information. (If anyone wants me to provide the information again please ask).

Downgrading this page to semi protection will still leave this page protected and will allow the page to be updated more.

I am actively monitoring this page and if someone consistently does vandalism to this page we can always revert it and ask to upgrade the protection again.

Thanks. Historyguy1138 (talk) 21:49, 11 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Hello. Given that this article has been the victim not only of sockpuppets but also a bone of contention who claim that one did this and the other that, avoiding good coexistence, teamwork and contributing to Wikipedia; I request through this message that the the block is only and exclusively for Extended confirmed users.

    What is the problem with increasing the protection of the article? If it is protected by only giving the option that only confirmed extended users can edit it, we are avoiding the problems and nonsense that have been occurring lately. What guarantees us that when the protection expires, that guy and his sockpuppets will not continue in the same old ways? The problem must be attacked head on and with everything. If he does not edit it, it is better that no one does. You must supporting me Daniel Case, and BusterD also. And that protection must be indefinite.

Reason: No distruptive editing, page has been protected for a long time. Main article is not protected Heyaaaaalol (talk) 01:42, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Not unprotected As the admin who imposed that protection ... first, "no disruptive editing" is not a good reason to unprotect since it is almost always easily explained by "article has been protected for a long time".

Second, and more specifically, before I imposed this protection two years ago the page was getting regular joke edits like this. The article does not get that attention. This is not the only situation where we've had to protect the talk page more than the article—I think we had to do the same at Talk:Artificial intelligence. And, relatedly, we had to protect Talk:Taylor Swift indefinitely along with the article not because of cantankerous discussion among Swifties but rather due to people thinking, perhaps because they had Googled "talk to Taylor Swift" and that page came up, that she would respond to whatever they wrote there.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Nearly all IP edits to this article are oblivious/malicious ones altering the 100-year-old phrase to what they erroneously believe it to be, or noting incorrectly that it's missing some letter.

Bacha bazi

Reason: A semi-protected page is being repeatedly edited by a user [nowtis] who is removing well-sourced and credible content (including scholarly articles and credible news) about the history of bacha bazi and its practice during the Afghan government to align with personal views. The user has also been removing any references to ethnic groups and bacha bazi's origins from research journals. This disrupts the page's integrity and violates WP:V and WP:NPOV. Extended or full protection is requested to prevent further disruption. Tigerlily143 (talk) 18:30, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

For example, the user continuously deletes the history and origins of bacha bazi from ethnographic research by German scholar Dr. Ingeborg Baldauf and a research article by Dr. Ali Abdi in the Iranian Studies journal. The user has also deleted references from an article about the practice of bacha bazi in the Indiana International & Comparative Law Review by Samuel Jones and a literature review Afghanistan by Shivananda Khan. These are just a few examples. Tigerlily143 (talk) 18:52, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. They haven't edited the article in three days. I have given them a CTOPS alert (for IPA although admittedly GENSEX is equally appropriate) and I will leave a CTOPS notice on the talk page. Daniel Case (talk) 19:00, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
Thank you. The reason the user hasn't updated in three days is because they already deleted my edits from those sources for the second or third time, and I haven't added them back yet. Tigerlily143 (talk) 20:30, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: The subject of this BLP gave a talk at a conference which is happening right now. Comments made by the subject have spurred a number of IPs to cast aspersions at the person on this BLP. I've been taking action to prevent it, and am engaged in a discussion on the talk page of the BLP. I am an admin and while I am not involved, it could be construed that I am.

Pending changes: Reduce protection: Israel/Palestine wasn’t even a thing until thousands of years after the romans. Heyaaaaalol (talk) 01:49, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

Heyaaaaalol, did you already ask Daniel Case? I mean, now that we're here, I think we can also discuss this here, but you'd normally need to contact the protecting administrator first (see the edit notice of this page). ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:42, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
@Heyaaaaalol: Additionally, please note that because extended confirmed protection was applied to this article as a contentious topic page restriction (in the Arab–Israeli conflict topic area – logged at Special:Diff/1261818158), the protection can only be overturned with the consent of the enforcing administrator (Daniel Case) or if successfully appealed to arbitration enforcement, the administrators' noticeboard, or the Arbitration Committee. See Wikipedia:Contentious topics § Changing or revoking a contentious topic restriction for details. — Newslinger talk 02:50, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
Daniel Case, this came from AIV, right? I thanked you for the protection but I think semi-protection would do equally well here unless I've overlooked recent disruption related to the war. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:44, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
Yes it did. Editing like this, reverted here, suggests to me a subtext distantly related to the current conflict. Daniel Case (talk) 02:52, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
Thanks – yeah, that edit may well be an attempt to display the history of the region in a light favorable to one's own side in the current conflict. To me personally that's infrequent and distant enough not to apply extended-confirmed protection indefinitely, but I see the point and as Newslinger has described above, unless you agree with lowering the protection level, this needs to be declined here. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:58, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

2014 Little League World Series

Reason: I am requesting protection for 10 articles: 2010 Little League World Series through 2019 Little League World Series, inclusive.

There has been, and continues to be (as recently as today), intermittent but persistent long-term vandalism by an anonymous editor who uses various IP addresses. This person (or perhaps bot) continues to demonstrate a clear determination to corrupt the information in these articles. Most edits to these articles over the past year have been vandalism and reverts thereof. As these articles are about events that happened 5+ years ago, few to no future legitimate changes are expected. Requesting page protection for an indefinite amount of time. Dmoore5556 (talk) 21:57, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I clicked through all of these articles, and I see three total recent incidents of disruption among them. On the other hand, 2013 Little League World Series demonstrates why it's a bad idea to just lock off an historical event article. The event hasn't changed, but the world has. There's zero active disruption, just a couple of ip vandals in the last few months. BusterD (talk) 13:44, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Disruptive edits, removal sourced content and possible sock evasions by the infamous vandal sockmaster User:Kairakairav.

@Daniel Case:, the article got chunks of sourced info removed by User:NairaAadhya01, which is 100% another sock of Kairakairav (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), as evident by similar username to past socks and similar changing content of epic based on her own liking, i would suggest blocking her or increasing the pp to extended confirmed, also I am User: Seyamar (I can't log in as I had decided to take a wikibreak)
@Daniel Case: Also, kindly restore revision of Madri article
Restored the revision and blocked the sock. Daniel Case (talk) 07:32, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
@Daniel Case: Thanks a lot :) , but unfortunately the sock will make another account, gain auto confirmed rights, vandalise and the cycle will go on and on (the sock cycle has been going on since last 3 years). Most importantly the sock will never respond to anyone and mindlessly edit.

Nuatali Nelmes

Reason: High level of IP vandalism - defamatory content (this content below is factual and can be locked until the vandalism stops) Nuatali Josephine Nelmes is an Australian politician who served as Lord Mayor of Newcastle from a by-election in 2014 until her defeat at the 2024 local elections.[2] She is the youngest person to ever serve as Newcastle lord mayor.[3]

Career Nelmes studied a business degree in industrial relations and marketing at the University of Newcastle, and joined the Labor Party when she was 20.[4] She was elected to the City of Newcastle council in 2008, succeeding her father, long-serving Labor councillor Paul Scobie.[5][6] She was the Labor candidate for Lord Mayor at the 2012 election, and was endorsed by former state MP Jodi McKay, but was defeated by developer and conservative independent candidate Jeff McCloy.[7][8][9][10] She stood for the Senate in the unwinnable fifth position on the Labor ticket at the 2013 federal election, and nominated for preselection for the 2014 Newcastle state by-election, losing to fellow councillor Tim Crakanthorp.[11][12] She has also served as a member of the Labor Party's national policy forum.[4]

In mid-2014, McCloy resigned as Lord Mayor after becoming involved in a corruption investigation into illegal donations to MPs in the region. Nelmes was again the Labor candidate at the resulting by-election, and was successful, receiving 42% of the vote to closest rival and conservative independent Brad Luke's 24%.[13][14] Nelmes campaigned on restoring trust, protecting and improving services particularly public transport, Newcastle railway line, supports funding the Newcastle Art Gallery expansion, and urban renewal in the inner city.[15] She has also supported a Newcastle bid for the 2030 Commonwealth Games.[16] Nelmes is only the second female Lord Mayor of Newcastle after popular 1970s-era mayor Joy Cummings. Her victory also resulted in Labor taking control of the local, state and federal political offices in Newcastle for the first time since 1998.[17]

Nelmes was defeated by former Labor-turned independent candidate Ross Kerridge at the 2024 New South Wales local elections. Labor lost the Lord Mayoralty as well as their majority voting bloc in council at the election.[18] Genuine23446 (talk) 13:13, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

Can you edit this page just the M train on it since the R179 is running on the M line on the regular schedule permanently I can't edit this page because is protected only auto confirmed username can edit.

Put the M on between the J and Z because is based assigned on the East New York Yard.

Look this sentences is missing now –

The R179s are numbered 3010–3327. Cars numbered 3010–3049 and 3238–3327 are configured into five-car sets, comprising 130 cars, which are assigned to the A and Rockaway Park Shuttle and are based out of Pitkin Yard. Cars numbered 3050–3237 are configured into four-car sets, comprising 188 cars; these are split between the J and Z (based out of East New York Yard) and the C (based out of 207th Street Yard). The order replaced all remaining R32s and R42s, which dated to the 1960s and early 1970s.[1]: 11  The R179s were also the last subway car order to be built by Bombardier Transportation prior to being acquired by Alstom in January 2021.[2] 148.76.246.47 (talk) 22:36, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
