Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh

Reason: This is my second request for 30/500 protection. High level of disruptive editing and vandalism from IP addresses. It is frustrating to revert back and restore the article. The person in the article is a powerful Indian criminal politician currently in the mainstream news for sexual assault allegations by top Olympians. Neurofreak (talk) 13:47, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of six months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. I.e., the protection I had meant to impose in January. ECP is not necessary when the disruptive editors are primarily IPs; semi- takes care of them. If you feel ECP might be necessary on an article, go to the contribs page of the disruptive editors and check under "user rights management" to see if "auto-confirmed" is checked. Only then would ECP be necessary (And if "extended confirmed" is checked, then we need to consider talking about a partial block). Daniel Case (talk) 01:38, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Migos

Temporary extended protection: Persistent Disruptive Editing. There have been repeated attempts to change the "Years active" in the infobox and include editor interpretations of a song lyric in the article, which goes against the current consensus. There are plenty of edit notices in the relevant places stating that this should not be done, but this has been a persistent issue. Requesting temporary protection as this issue is likely to resolve itself with some kind of official announcement within the next year or so. Actualcpscm (talk) 10:13, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Light skin

The use of “fair” in the “Light skin” page is of racist usage used as positive bias towards light skin, while “deep skin” was not eligible for use in the “Dark skin” page despite common usage in society.

For the fragile “editors”, I’ll refer you to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_bias_on_Wikipedia

Not an accusation when it’s true. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a00:23ee:19f8:84ef:ecbf:7a51:e461:a95b (talk) 06:30, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done – You have already initiated a discussion on the article talk page, which is where it belongs. Favonian (talk) 17:20, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
And the intentionally-inflammatory requests do you absolutely no favours. You can make your case without implying racism is the core reason, or calling editors "fragile", or using scarequotes. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v Source assessment notes 19:40, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They've been the only ones editing disruptively recently; let's see what effect this has. If other IP ranges are used, or accounts are created, yes, semi-protection may be necessary.

List of equipment of the Indonesian Air Force

Reason: Consensus was reached on the talk page as to what edits should be made to the fleet table, multiple users are going around that and removing reliably sourced content again and again, which is a pain to fix every 6 hours or so. SurferSquall (talk) 01:10, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. Be warned, though, that if I were reviewing this as a report there I would be inclined to block you. You haven't violated 3RR, but over the last couple of days you have repeatedly reverted others by saying consensus hasn't been reached on the edits you've made. In my experience that has gotten people blocked. If you believe you are so right, it's better to bring it to the dispute resolution noticeboard or ask for knowledgable editors on the appropriate project talk pages than keep edit warring. — Daniel Case (talk) 18:26, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the IP never bothered to discuss the issue on any talk page that I’m aware of. Reading an article-length version through Wikipedia:The Wikipedia Library, I can’t see any particularly serious problems with the work besides his tone.
Boyd-Barrett’s assertions are not quite what IP said they were, and they are exactly the sort of thing that is most vulnerable to getting suppressed by POV editors to a highly inconvenient topic, whether it’s inconvenient to Beijing, Kyiv, Putin, Bush, UK politicians, or even French security bureaucrats.
Also, said IP just violated WP:3RR. Unfortunately, due to excessive multitasking, I didn’t manage to finish drafting my warning on their talk before they did so. RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 11:52, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Do arguments somehow magically lose their weight when they are expressed in edit summaries and not on talk pages? By the way, you so far have not provided even a semblance of an argument, nor have you initiated a talk page discussion yourself. 93.72.49.123 (talk) 12:00, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Boyd-Barrett’s assertions are not quite what IP said they were" - please enlighten me, how is the following not denying Syrian responsibility for chemical attacks?

This charge, long before the investigation, let alone proof (coming one year after comparable false confidence alleging Assad’s use of chemical weapons in Syria)...

In the preceding main section of this book, I have discussed the controversial role of the Bellingcat.com investigative journalism site in the coverage of the shooting down of MH17 as well as in contributing evidence during the 2013 saga of the Assad regime’s alleged use of chemical weapons against Syrian rebels – allegations, eventually determined unsound, that almost served as a pretext for direct US and European intervention at that time.

93.72.49.123 (talk) 12:17, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
And then there's also this:

The issues of who was responsible and, if a culpable party could be proven, the appropriate punishment, commanded much political and press attention. While full consensus as to the facts may never be achieved and controversy has persisted,... The MH17 tragedy contributed towards the demonization of Putin and served to distract public attention from issues of the legitimacy of the February 2014 coup, the West’s intervention, and the intensification of hostilities between nuclear powers... Taking their cue from claims of the coup regime in Kiev — hardly an independent source — US politicians and WMM rushed to attribute the downing of MH17 to “pro-Russian” militants, possibly aided and abetted by Russians, who allegedly had used Russian weapons.

But yeah, "Boyd-Barrett’s assertions are not quite what IP said they were". Sure. 93.72.49.123 (talk) 12:21, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like to advise both RadioactiveBoulevardier and 93.72.49.123 have this discussion either at Talk:Media portrayal of the Russo-Ukrainian War or at WP:RSN – it's a very valid debate (and important for other articles too) but is wasted here. — Czello (music) 12:23, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I’m starting a topic at the TP and then going off the grid for a day or three (lest I be scolded for not treating WP like 24-hour social media the way somebody recently did in this topic area).

Jathedar

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This article keeps seeing disruptive editing in-regards to different opinions on who is the leader of certain Sikh organizations (especially Budha Dal). There was a schism and split in leadership, so editors keep pushing for their faction's leader to be listed and deleting mention of the other faction and vice-versa. Need page protection and frequent moderating of the page. ThethPunjabi (talk) 02:56, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined @ThethPunjabi: I take your point and agree that an article like that will be a magnet for factional boosterism. However, the last edit was on 25 May 2023 and it has not been challenged. There is nothing on article talk. Before protection occurs, there must be attempts to try to resolve the problem on talk. Johnuniq (talk) 05:18, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:English language

Reason: Repeatedly vandalized by IP edits. If approved, this would be the ninth time that the talk page has been protected, with the last time being on January 28th. Since the last protection, 28 edits have been made to the talk page. Of those, 10 of them are edits by IP users that had to be reverted and 8 edits were the reverting edits. I will note that there was one good edit made by an IP user during this time that would have been blocked had protection been in place. I still will request at least a month of temporary protection due to the reoccurring vandalism. Super Goku V (talk) 10:06, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Mathematics

Reason: Repeatedly vandalized by IP edits. If approved, this appears to be the first time that this talk page would be protected. Over the course of this year, 83 edits were made that were reverted or were the edits that reverted. With 122 edits so far, 68% of edits to the talk page are vandalism or reverting it. So far as I can tell, only one edit by an IP user was not reverted, though that edit was not helpful to the article. Due to the reoccurring vandalism, I feel that a month of protection might still be needed to hopefully cut down on it. Super Goku V (talk) 10:25, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Morgellons

Reason: I have been reading this outdated information and slanted take on Morgellons Disease for years. It is damaging to the people who have it. The 2006 study by the CDC was horribly flawed and had a meaningful sample of size of at little as 12 people. The people who wrote this probably never rolled up their sleeves and found out about the people who have this affliction. Have you ever read the many peer reviewed articles which do try to understand this strange dermatological condition? Or the photos of what is found in the skin of these patients? No mention of the Charles Holman Morgellons Foundation. Are all the people and physicians associated with that organization part of a grand delusion? Come on. This one page alone is why I will never make a donation to Wikipedia. I cannot possibly support such a harmful and hurtful page as this one. The sad thing is that I will be written off as a crazy person and one having some kind of grand shared delusion just for writing this. So I don't bother to apply a big effort to change here. I just ask that something be done. I don't have the skills to edit pages and have other interests that are more pressing than Morgellons. Just sad, that's all.

If it starts up again, let me know and I'll have another look. There is some discussion on talk but there needs to be more about why Wikipedia requires RS.

Draft:Nitin Dubey

Reason: Hello, I was going to make a page for this Indian singer, but found an existing draft for it. The draft wasn't too proper for Wikipedia, It had a lot of unsourced content, Youtube links and also majority of it was a copy of Wikitia page. I do not know who copied who, but I decided to rewrite it to avoid any copyright issues. It took me about 3 hours to work on this, but I am unable to make it live as the page is protected. I realize that it may have had some spam issues in the past for whatever reason, but if you check the current draft that I wrote, you will realize that he is a major Indian singer with many awards and more than enough citations to meet notability. Could you please unprotect this page and move it live? RolandSimon (talk) 08:40, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Irakli Garibashvili

Reason: High level of vandalism

This page is about Georgian Prime Minister and is constantly subject to vandalism and has to be locked for several days and weeks, but vandals still return and continue what they do. The most recent instance of vandalism: "ყლე" is an insult word in Georgian meaning "dick". So some vandals decided to edit the name of the person on Wikipedia to make it sound similar to insulting word, so they wrote "ირაყლი" instead of the real name "ირაკლი" (so they replaced some letters to make it more similar to "ყლე").

Just so you know how far all of this goes, even the local media outlet (which is the biggest opposition media) reported this change as a news - "Wikipedia changed the name of Irakli Garibashvili to "ირაყლი") - https://mtavari.tv/news/125426-iraqli-gharibashvils-vikipediashi-sakheli

You can use Google translate.

The page was most likely edited by this media outlet itself. The edit was soon reverted and the user was banned, while page was locked for few days. But vandals still keep returning and appearantly this is not enough and more protection is needed to avoid such vandalism in the future, which is very likely coordinated behaviour.

Thank you for taking the time to review the request. I'm not going to do that because it's different IP addresses. Sometimes it's plain vandalism, and other times it's just poor editing.

Eleanor of England, Countess of Bar

Reason: Hi, there is an edit war on Eleanor of England, Countess of Bar wikipage. Some editors are constantly removing a sentence on a page that is valuable content about the topic. Not sure why there is so much focus on removing this specific sentence : She was the great-grandmother of Elen ferch Tomos, mother of Owain Glyndwr, last native Prince of Wales.

It is valuable information about the links between the Royal families linked to Eleanor of England. As the page doesn't have much content already, it doesn't make any sense removing references and knowledge about this topic. Links between great-grandchildren are often shown on Royal families pages such as the House of Tudor or others. Can you please be of help ? Academia45 (talk) 14:58, 6 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Quebec Biker War

Reason: Request semi-protection for this article, which has been the subject of block evasion by CanadianHistorian(MMA & History). For the gruesome details, please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/CanadianHistorian(MMA & History). This has been an on-going problem ever since April of last year, and this article has been protected twice because of this issue. This guy does not learn. As soon the block expires, he starts editing the article again. For this reason, I would like this article to be protected for a substantial period of time, say for a year or so. This guy edits a number of articles as an IP, so please forgive me for the volume of requests I will be placing here. Thank you for your time and help. A.S. Brown (talk) 04:57, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now, A.S. Brown, you need to report disruption as it happens. That usually means within days, otherwise it starts becoming Stale. I note that last protection was for 2 weeks on Sept 2022. El_C 17:47, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Given that this has been a chronic, on-going problem ever since April 2022, would it be possible to have this article semi-protected for about a year or so? Protecting an article for a month or two does not work with CanadianHistorian-he starts editing again as an IP the moment the block expires. Thank you for your help. A.S.

Now that they can only edit their talk page they are just continuing there - most recently like this - and they don't seem bothered to use the talk page to request they be unblocked. Is it time to either protect the page, or remove their rights to edit it? Or is it harmless to just leave them to it?. Dorsetonian (talk) 12:41, 7 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Guide to addressing bias

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I am going to make a pitch for indefinite protection here. It is not just that this page is a repeat target for sock puppets of Belteshazzar (see Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Belteshazzar), although that is the main reason that I am rasing this right now, it is more that I think that important guide documents like this one require greater protection than articles. It must be very rare for anybody who has the experience required to edit such a document constructively not to have a registered account. The few exceptions can be handled by letting anonymous users make edit requests on the Talk page and actioning them only if the suggestion is helpful.

Funland (Rehoboth Beach, Delaware)

Reason: Protection is evidently no longer needed. as there hasn't been any edit warring in months, and the IP address that claimed to return has gone dark. I don't see any evidence that the IP address in question is planning on returning. I also see the page is barely even being edited, so I think it should be re opened to the public, so anybody can edit it. Thank you for your consideration. 50.206.232.94 (talk) 06:48, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not an admin, but just wanted to add a comment. Wouldn't an IP not be able to make edits when the page is protected? so how do you know the IP did not try and found it to be protected? RolandSimon (talk) 08:49, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't saying as far as the particular page, I meant on Wikipedia as a whole. I haven't seen them making any edits on Wikipedia in general. 24.126.8.228 (talk) 06:03, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Cullen328: last protecting admin: any thoughts on that?. My 2c: I would leave the page protected, at most pending-changes protection might be considered. Lectonar (talk) 09:08, 5 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's been nearly three days since the ping, and Cullen has been editing. As a compromise – the reason for its protection no longer applies, a reasonable period has elapsed, and there is no consensus that continued protection is necessary – I would've preferred to simply unprotect the page, but pending-changes will ensure that IP edits will be reviewed. Pending-changes protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Sdrqaz (talk) 01:16, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:Indubitably/Archive 29 and others

Former admin, not recent

Former admin, 6+ months

Reason: I'd like access to these 13 pages to address the Tidy Font bug errors and other WP:LINT found within, as I have with similar past requests in April (1, 2, and others). Each of these pages was selfprotected by the former admin, so asking the protecting admin prior to this request is not needed. I have Extended Confirmed access, so that or lower is fine, whatever is appropriate for each.

If I have overlooked anything that would be an issue, or you feel that any page needs to be temporary Extended Confirmed and returned to Full after I've addressed all Lint issues, that is fine (temporaries would be addressed first, and I'd let you know when finished if any). Happy to discuss anything if you have further questions. Thank you.

Temporary pending changes protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring. Spanish elections are coming up and as is usual there's lots of "dodgy" edits that include adding info with no sources and lots of section blanking. There has been a few interventions and reverts in the last days and things don't seem to be getting better, pending protection until the end of july when the elctions end seems adequate. Lakwat (talk) 22:22, 9 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Looking at the history, it includes unexplained section blanking by editors who've been here long enough to edit through autoconfirmed, PC or ECP anyway. So I've locked it for a week (probably on the wrong version, sorry) so that hopefully the editors who should know better can hash it out on the talk page before anyone has to take it to WP:ANI.

Correct, nothing I do here matters, and we all know that no one wants me to be an admin, but I still can't find any preemptive protection discussion at ARBAP2, nor any such actions in the logs for Prosecution of Donald Trump in New York...

User talk:Jéské Couriano/Archive 8 and others

Former admin, not recent

Former admin, 5+ months ago

Reason: I'd like access to these 12 pages to address the Tidy Font bug errors and other WP:LINT found within, as I have with similar past requests (most recently last week's). Each of these pages was selfprotected by the former admin, so asking the protecting admin prior to this request is not needed. I have Extended Confirmed access, so that or lower is fine, whatever is appropriate for each.

If I have overlooked anything that would be an issue, or you feel that any page needs to be temporarily lowered to Extended Confirmed and returned to Full after I've addressed all Lint issues, that is fine (temporaries would be addressed first, and I'd let you know when finished if any). Happy to discuss anything if you have further questions. Thank you. Zinnober9 (talk)

Hi. Several of these editors are presently active. Apologies if I missed it, but have you asked them if they'd be happy for these usertalk archives to be unprotected? If not that seems a straightforward way to resolve this request. -- Euryalus (talk) 04:19, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So what do you want then? We do not protect pages preemptively, there is not enough activity to justify protection, and you seem to have it very much under control. If you are upset about disruptive IPs editing a page once a month, ignoring edit summaries, and not using talk pages, that alone is not justification under the protection policy, otherwise half the project would be indef protected.

Limburgish

Reason: This page is experiencing a spill over conflict from the Dutch language Wikipedia. There, the article is already protected and an arbcom-case is pending.

I'd hoped the conflict there would not affect the editing of the article here, as the users involved were not overly active on the English Wikipedia, but to no avail.

One of the users in question, De Wikischim (talk · contribs) is subjected to restrictions implemented by the Dutch-language-Wikipedia Arbcom which forbid him to revert articles except in cases of obvious vandalism. These restrictions however do not apply to English Wikipedia, and at this point it is obvious that this user is trying to provoke others in breaking the 3RR.

I think it would save the administrators a lot of trouble, if they'd protect this page -- thereby forcing the participants to engage on the talk page.

I personally do not care which version is protected. This could be the version prior to major revision [36] / the version which makes use of the most source material [37] or the current version [38].

I do however request the administrators to readd the {{POV}} and {{Sources}} -taggs whatever version chosen (which were also reverted by De Wikischim, despite explicit requests not to do so [39]) so as to alert readers to the articles at various times quite dubious content.

Kind regards, Vlaemink (talk) 13:02, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sengol

Reason: The articles recent political topic may be still fresh in minds. While further talk page discussions are likely to help, some IPs (and some users too) seem to push their own preferred version, The article seem to need further discussion for better consensus.

Idk of of others) Bookku (talk) 11:46, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. However, I don't think semi-protection will accomplish much. Most of the back-and-forth, add-and-delete stuff is being done by autoconfirmed users. Somebody needs to start a discussion of the disputed issues on the talk page. And if that doesn't generate discussion/agreement, it may become necessary to full-protect the page. MelanieN (talk) 19:32, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Most recent IP editor already has a level 4 warning on their talk page, report to WP:AIV... all other recent edits (the other ~100 edits this month, otherwise nothing since March), appear to be a content dispute or edit warring between yourself and another registered user, you should report to WP:ANI... Page protection should not be used for settling disputes... - Adolphus79 (talk) 17:32, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not trying to settle any disputes through protecting the page against IP edits (if that's what you're implying?). There hasn't been any "edit warring" nor is there a conflict that would require an administrator's intervention.
My concern is that the topic, given the current political climate especially in the US, will regularly attract editors such as today's IP editor. If you feel that there is not sufficient evidence for this, please feel free to reject my suggestion.--TempusTacet (talk) 18:24, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I can't decline your request, I'm not allowed to use the template or be an admin, I'm just making notes to save the time of someone else that is actually useful to the project. And as far as the article possibly attracting future disruptive editors, we do not protect pages preemptively. - Adolphus79 (talk) 18:32, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I have a very limited understanding of how this process works and who can do what on this page. I've just seen that other pages that see similar disruptive edits have been protected and thus went looking for a place to suggest such measures. If experienced editors like you (or the people actually making the decision) feel that a protection is not necessary at this point I'm not going to argue against that.--TempusTacet (talk) 18:40, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I am normally wrong about such things, but if you want, you can read up on the protection policy for future reference... - Adolphus79 (talk) 18:45, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the link! This page, which I've admittedly not studied in its entirety (just the section on semi-protection & Wikipedia:Rough guide to semi-protection), is how I found my way to this request page. (Did you mean to say you're not wrong about the need for protection? No doubt that between the two of us you're the expert.)--TempusTacet (talk) 18:54, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'm generally wrong about everything, and certainly not an expert on anything... - Adolphus79 (talk) 18:59, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for my above comments, I have been informed that I am wrong again as usual, and should keep my future comments off-wiki... please ignore any and all suggestions I have made... - Adolphus79 (talk) 20:48, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sufism

Reason: KASHMIRI IS REMOVING AUTHENTIC SOURCES FROM THE CAMBRIDGE COMPANION. The sources clearly state sufism is mainly a Sunni phenomenon. If one reads further down the pages info, one would have realised the Shia equivalent of mysticism is already mentioned under the concept of IRFAN. Hence making the page unbiased and non sectarian as the 2 main sects in Islam have their respective mysticism concepts covered Galaxy21ultra (talk) 19:28, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Harsh Jain

Reason: This page was placed under protection in 2010 due to multiple unsuccessful attempts at its creation. However, currently I am interested in creating the page, as I have gathered a plethora of reliable sources that extensively cover the subject. Given the passage of thirteen years, it is reasonable to assert that the subject has indeed attained a noteworthy status, thereby warranting inclusion on Wikipedia. Also, I believe that the ongoing protection may no longer be necessary, and its addition would serve as a valuable contribution to the platform. Himalayan7914 (talk) 09:29, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined I don't think that the passage of a certain amount of time alone means that it is "reasonable to assert that the subject has indeed attained a noteworthy status". I suggest instead that you follow the process laid out at Wikipedia:articles for creation; if the draft is accepted, it's easy to unportect the article.

Muhajir (Pakistan)

Reason: Note: Page is already semi-protected but expiring soon. It was semi-protected upon my suggestion because there was too much edit warring and new account created to put distortion on it. However, even when the article is semi-protected, numerous registered accounts are edit warring over it. The latest was a user with a promotional agenda violating WP:SOAP and possibly WP:PEACOCK whom was banned and has a history of being blocked because of that topic area. Because of all this, I successfully managed to have the article being semi-protected for the second time. In the meantime lots of edit wars and issues continued with the article, so I told the protecting administrator to keep the semi-protection indefinite or keep it for at least a few years. If long time registered accounts are edit warring over this, all that would happen is the situation for this article would worsen with IPs and newer accounts being allowed to edit. Am I wrong?

Rampal (spiritual leader)

Reason: Vandalism by unregistered users. The users usually add words like "ji", "saint", "maharaj" to show respect to him and remove information about his legal troubles. They also add his own facebook pages, and website as source to dispute his legal troubles. Majority of these edits come from unregistered users.

While I have no proof of this on wikipedia, Rampal's company funds people to promote him on youtube, twitter, and reddit. It is possible that these editers are being paid as well. Kenm v2 (talk) 02:06, 18 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Ivanvector, I would be in favour of unprotection or at most semi-protection, given that previous community discussions had a threshold of 250 transclusions for semi-protection and thousands for extended-confirmed and template-editor protections. The transclusion counts for these two templates are still in the double digits and therefore don't even meet the first threshold. Even while giving leeway for administrator discretion, template-editor seems like far too much. Sdrqaz (talk) 08:45, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent vandalism – I've seen in 2023 alone about more than 300+ edits, most of these edits are kind of a war edit, but not quite. They change it all the time but I think the latest version is the one which the more experienced editors agree on. I think this might be a PC? It's my first RPP, thanks. 多多123 (✉ • ✎) 19:59, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the editors involved are mostly new editors and IPs. It's not exactly vandalism, it's just disagreeing without any reliable sources. They change the wikicode around. 多多123 (✉ • ✎) 20:06, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. 多多123, that is not what pending changes (WP:PC) is for. It is to combat disruptive edits slipping through the cracks in low traffic articles. Here, this seems like a content dispute that should be discussed on the article talk page. So feel free to present your position there, if you haven't already, and also feel free to inform participants of that discussion attempt by linking it on their user talk pages, or even just linking the discussion in an edit summary in the article (even a WP:DUMMYEDIT would be fine). If there is no engagement in, say, a week, feel free to relist the page here again. If the discussion does happen but reaches some sort of an impasse, there are dispute resolution requests, like 3rd opinion at the minimum or Request for comment at the max that you could avail yourself of. You may also write a neutral request for assistance at the two Wikiprojects listed at the top of the talk page. HTH. El_C 04:55, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Urassaya Sperbund

Reason: This page was protected with ECP for an entire month which seems excessive given that the involved editors are not autoconfirmed and this is the first page protection. I'd like someone to consider reducing this to a shorter period of semi-protection. More at Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection/Increase#Urassaya_Sperbund.

Mildly, you didn't hear back from the admin that protected it because you only left your message about an hour ago, and your message didn't include a ping or a post to my talkpage so unfortunately I didn't see the message except by chance. One of the editors in the dispute is autoconfirmed, which was the reason for ECP.

Extended confirmed protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Added ECP to avoid privileging any autoconfirmed accounts. Both sides have sources at their disposal but we're in the realm of gossip journalism so who knows how valid they are. Either way, have left a message on the talkpage urging consensus rather than edit-warring. Let's see how that goes! -- Euryalus (talk) 01:22, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Note: The use of ECP and the 1 month duration seem very excessive. The involved users are not autoconfirmed, the guide for ECP is quite clear that semi-protection should be tried first, and there's no reason for this to be 1 month in length rather than 1 week or less.

Hillary Ronen

Reason:

To whom it may concern:

I am requesting that the Wikipedia page of Hillary Ronen be given semi-protection status due to a consistent amount of vandalism for this year alone. Ronen is a living person and currently a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.

I decided to take it upon myself to write up and revise Supervisor Ronen's article to provide a more accurate reflection of her career serving San Francisco and to combat misleading info that has been plaguing her account for quite some time.

Four days after I wrote the edits, somebody tried to vandalize the article again using an IP address by inserting a section concerning her position on police funding. I have since deleted it. The edit made it seem that her position of not wanting to fund police made it seem that it led to an increase in homicide rates although the percentages for homicides were misleading (the actual raw number of increase were 7 and 8, respectively), and the budget actually increased by 4.4% between 2019 and 2022 (see https://abc7news.com/sfpd-budget-defund-the-police-department-funding/12321818/), making the troll's point misleading and inaccurate. Also, any reasonable person would know that a county supervisor does not have direct control over crime rates. The only article cited in that section was from Fox News, a widely discredited source of information. This has been attempted before as I have listed below.

Supervisor Ronen's article has been subject to multiple incidents of vandalism in the past by anonymous accounts, primarily those using IP addresses.

- Ronen's account listed her last name as "Ronenstein" for two weeks. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hillary_Ronen&oldid=1134653368)

- A controversies section was also created which listed misleading and even inaccurate information. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hillary_Ronen&oldid=1136702718) The edits were later reverted citing vandalism.

- A section previously created in her positions on police initially derived from Fox News. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hillary_Ronen&oldid=1145946283). The only sources to mainly cover this instance are discredited right-wing outlets (i.e. Sinclair, Daily Mail).

For the reasons aforementioned, I am requesting that this article be given permanent semi-protection status. If you are unable to grant permanent semi-protection status, I request that you, at the very least, have the semi-protection status for this article last until January 8, 2025. Supervisor Ronen is term-limited and the date proposed will be her last day of office. Any efforts to vandalize her page by then will be moot.

Hi Daniel,
I am, very respectfully, a bit confused by the decline for my request.
Wouldn't the past incidents of vandalisms, most notably when the last name of the subject of the article was edited for nearly two weeks, already clear the threshold for page protection?
Does the repeated pattern on incidents by the sole use of IP addresses not give rise to page protection (please see revision history)?
Can you please provide more clarification on the standard needed to increase the page protection?
This info would be much appreciated. SFHistorian1850 (talk) 03:22, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Repeated changing of terms despite WP:LANGVAR. I requested a couple days ago, protection was not granted was told to request again if continued.

Rochdale

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Some really bad behaviour going on here with respected editors almost being bullied by others. Full protection would give the edit-warring factions time to cool off and perhaps even discuss on the talk page. 10mmsocket (talk) 12:13, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Yes, the discussion on the talk page has been tense. But Exnihilox seems to have indicated they are satisfied with the outcome, and really the edit history, while it does have some strongly worded edit summaries, does not show much sign of disruptive back and forth. Daniel Case (talk) 19:25, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To be clear, I am totally fine with the current document. The active version now reflect more 'a Rochdale of 2023' compared to the original 2011 document. Yes, indeed the exchanges have been rather 'strong' - and some comments might be just in the nature of this kind of digital debate. I take a lot of responsibility for this. Though on review many of the 'disputes' have been fully resolved and I especially appreciated the user 'PamD's' contribution and guidance - despite some contention. The document is far more robust, far better supported and easier to read than it was three days ago. As a newcomer to the Wikipedia community - I fully comprehend I might be perceived as an outsider - I fully grasp many editors have been engaged with this project for many years. It has been a good lesson for me and I hope to contribute more to the areas I have a background in - this was very much a learning experience. Regards and thanks...

Imran Khan

Reason: Suggesting full protection to help form consensus. WP:CTOP area article. Since last month Imran Khan related articles have become more sensitive and can expect intermittent politically polarized contentious debates and edit wars. (Hence also suggest watch listing the articles) This time @ Imran Khan though users started discussion at the talk page, It seems well intentioned confirmed users from both side have not understood the point that preferably they form consensus at talk page first before editing the article. That's leading to situation of edit war. At this stage rather than action on individual users fully protecting the article may benefit consensus forming at the talk page, but still admins may arrive at better judgement after own visit to talk page discussion and article edit history.

1976 United States presidential election in South Carolina

Reason: Disruptive removal of captions added to collapsible county table.

In efforts to make the county tables more compact at this and other United States presidential election tables – attention also to the 1976 and 2000 presidential elections in South Carolina — I have made the county table into a collapsible format, only to see it repeatedly changed back into its original format by a series of conflicting edits by 2600:1009:b10b:9b6:2da7:c49c:1b1c:7aa9, 2600:1009:B00F:9366:29BA:ADBE:C533:BD9D and 2600:1009:B055:ECBA:2D6F:1424:EFAB:F43C.

According to the manual at Help:Collapsing, when a sortable table is collapsed, a caption is recommended. I find that collapsing the county tables makes them much less dominant on the election pages, making for easier reading on both desktop and mobile formats.

I spoke to 2600:1009:B00F:9366:29BA:ADBE:C533:BD9D over a week ago but there has been no discussion of the points noted at the manual at Help:Collapsing. Luokehao (talk) 08:20, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If an administrator will block the IP Address which vandalised the article about Ben O'Keeffe (I have already reported that on Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism), a blocked user wouldn't be able to edit the article again. Those users who need to make useful contributions to the article can still edit pending changes protected pages, but Semi-protected pages can't be edited by IP Addresses and accounts that are not confirmed or autoconfirmed (accounts that are at least 4 days old and have made at least 10 edits to Wikipedia). 178.95.99.242 (talk) 13:03, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – See Exnihilox's tendentious behaviour over the Wikiproject standard heading of "Demography". He/she is engaging in a ridiculous edit war with multiple editors, creating masses of talk page content and completely ignoring the opinions of other editors. This running roughshod over other editors is classic WP:OWN behaviour and it needs to be stopped. So we can consider a possible WP:ANI report (again apparently) or some 3RR detail, it would be useful to just completely lock the article to stop his/her disruptive behaviour. 10mmsocket (talk) 05:41, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Correct, but the bad behaviour has escalated. 10mmsocket (talk) 06:15, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. I declined it yesterday (I think) because there wasn't a lot of evidence the article was being edited disruptively. I still don't. Exnihilox is being tenacious, and should tone down his edit summaries, but while strongly worded with a bit too much ALL CAPS he is not being uncivil or attacking anyone. As of this writing it has been almost 24 hours since he last edited the article. Some way to own it. (And as I noted in the last report, he had said yesterday that he's OK with the article as it currently exists.

Yes, the talk page is a different story. You have more or less accused him of not dropping the stick when he's one against many. But while we have protected many talk pages, I have never heard of an instance where one had to be full-protected (not saying it's never happened), especially when the article itself did not have to be. It's your and other editors' right to feel that Exnihilox is pushing his agenda too hard and too long, but he's still editing within the parameters of talk page use and acceptable user behavior (and it doesn't seem as if anyone's warned him in any way). That's why I think your best option here would be to bring in more editors through DR/N or another external forum—we're not to me really at the point of AN/I yet, and it's really outside the scope of this page. Daniel Case (talk) 19:20, 24 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – An anonymous editor in the 2601:285:100:4a60:X:X:X:X range has been carrying out dozens of inexplicable edits and then eventually self-reverts. It looks like the editor is experimenting, but it is disrupting the stability of the article. I was wondering if we could semi-protect the article for a few days in the hope that the editor moves on.

Reason: The article has been fully protected for 3 years, so there's really no need to keep the article protected. Also, those users who recreated the article have been blocked indefinitely from editing. 95.132.186.233 (talk) 17:22, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Protection is free. As this target has zero chance of being useful, there's not reason to remove protection. OhNoitsJamie Talk 17:31, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
A protection hasn't been for 3 years, and is no longer needed, because it's very likely that no user will continue to recreate it, as those users who created it many times have been blocked from editing. Let's give the article a second chance. 95.132.186.233 (talk) 18:16, 28 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Soa Palelei

Reason: Vandalsim

Dear Wikipedia Team,

I am writing to you as a concerned citizen and a fan of Soa Palelei, known by his nickname "The Hulk," to bring to your attention a significant issue regarding his Wikipedia page.

While checking his Wikipedia page, I notice that there is a potentially defamatory statement present on Soa Palelei's Wikipedia page, which falsely associates him with the Rock Machine Motorcycle Club. Soa Palelei vehemently denies any involvement with this organization.

The aforementioned statement undermines Soa Palelei's professional reputation and character, which he has worked hard to establish throughout his career. It is important to note that the newspapers responsible for publishing the original article making this false association have faced legal consequences. They were sued for their actions and had to pay a fine as a result. Additionally, they issued a formal apology to Soa Palelei for the harm caused by their story.

I kindly request that you review the article in question and assess the evidence provided to rectify this erroneous statement on Soa Palelei's Wikipedia page. As an online encyclopedia that values accuracy and integrity, it is crucial to ensure that the information presented on notable individuals' pages reflects the truth and avoids promoting defamatory content.

To support my request, I would like to direct your attention to an article from The West Australian, titled "Fighter Denies Bikie Link," which unequivocally states Soa Palelei's denial of any involvement with the Rock Machine Motorcycle Club. This article provides the necessary evidence to substantiate Soa Palelei's claim and disprove the false association present on his Wikipedia page.

Link for the Article: https://thewest.com.au/news/wa/fighter-denies-bikie-link-ng-ya-228379

I understand the immense efforts that the Wikipedia community puts into maintaining a reliable and trustworthy platform, and I believe that addressing this issue would further enhance the credibility of the information available on your site. I kindly ask for your prompt attention to this matter and the necessary actions to rectify the false statement on Soa Palelei's page.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to a positive resolution to this matter, ensuring the accuracy and fairness of Soa Palelei's Wikipedia page.

Best Regards,
