Mahabharat (1988 TV series)

Hi, could you lower the level of protection of this page Mahabharat (1988 TV series). I think extended-confirmed protection is not required for such pages. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArsheyaSagar (talk • contribs) 08:26, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, ArsheyaSagar, and thanks for the note. In this case I think extended confirmed protection was necessary, because the article was under repeated attack by sockpuppets. The sockpuppets were autoconfirmed, so semi-protection was not sufficient to protect the article. -- MelanieN (talk) 16:00, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

@MelanieN Could you extend the protection for the page? It was expired last week and disruption resumed since yesterday. Thanks! — DaxServer (t · c) 09:45, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

@MelanieN Hi Melanie, I am not trying to disrupt the page. I was just changing the cast order of the show. The actors Pankaj Dheer and Nitish Bharadwaj played the lead role in the show. I expect the administrator to check the matter through neutral view and not blindly accept a senior editor's edits and discard a junior editor's request. DaxServer is kind of becoming a bully editor. Thanks! Anna Bhaiyya 11:09, 10 March 2022

Please extend protection level for the page again. I think the block user have created another account for disruptive editing. Rtyggu (talk) 11:45, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

2022 in American television

There is another offensive comment over at the article edit history. The user called me a nazi and I don't support nazis at all. We're not even in World War II either. — FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 23:09, 21 February 2022 (UTC)

 Done Got it. Thanks. -- MelanieN (talk) 14:03, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

Bob the Builder (2015 TV series)

Sorry about the editing war on Bob the Builder (2015 TV series). I was thinking that another new Bob the Builder reboot series will happen for real. 121.94.187.149 (talk) 09:24, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

And maybe it will someday. But we can't put it in the article until it is reported by sources. This is an encyclopedia, we report facts; we can't just say something based on our hope or our hunch. I'm glad you have learned this. -- MelanieN (talk) 13:22, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Karna promotion is now cross-wiki

Hi Melanie! The Karna promotion (as you might know from Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1090#LTA sockpuppetry, puffery of Karna of Mahabharata) has already spilled into cross-wiki abuse. Apparently they are doing it for a while, as long as January and as recent as a couple of days ago. For example: Angla Bangla (Wikis: en, commons, simple, hi, wikisource); Ajju Khote (en, commons, hi, simple). I'm looking for advice as to how to tackle this. Thanks! — DaxServer (t · c) 19:34, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi, Dax. I'm afraid you would have to ask someone who is familiar with those other Wikis. I'm not. And of course I am not an admin anywhere else but EnWiki. Maybe a talk page stalker would have some advice? @Titodutta: do you edit the Hindi Wiki? @Vermont: Would you be able to help at the Simple English wiki? Daxserver can explain what this long-term abuse is about, but basically, it's an organized gang of sockpuppets, whose goal is to glorify Karna, one of the main characters in the Sanskrit epic Mahabharata. -- MelanieN (talk) 23:01, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

@DaxServer village pump or administrators noticeboard of the respective Wikis will be helpful to bring this to their attention. Mostly WP:VP (exact shortcut) shortcut works for all Indian Wikis. Several Wikis have their admin noticeboard. You may get the links in the language sidebar of En AN or ANI. The links in sidebar (or might be language drop down) will help to find the reporting destination. Regards. --Titodutta (talk) 23:07, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestions, Melanie and @Titodutta. I'll post on their ANs for a proper reach. I think I'll also post on AN here alerting the same. — DaxServer (t · c) 10:25, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) @DaxServer: I've globally locked Ajju Khote as a Steward—cross-wiki abuse can be reported to the Steward Requests/Global noticeboard on Meta -- TNT (talk • she/her) 11:02, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks TNT, that's very useful. I'll report the users there for locks! — DaxServer (t · c) 11:25, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Chint Electric

Good afternoon, I apologize in advance if my request is off topic, but I ask for your help. The fact is that I created an article,"Chint Electric". The fact is that it has been under consideration for several weeks. Can you please tell me if I need to improve or add to it? help me please. I would really like to publish it in order to start writing other articles, but I am afraid that my efforts will not be in vain — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vivatbela (talk • contribs) 09:06, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) The volunteers who review new articles are rather backed up at the moment, there are some that are over 3 months old that aren't quite accepted yet. Don't be discouraged if the page hasn't been gotten to yet, the reviewers will be there eventually. It's been about 2 weeks since you first submitted, so even if it takes awhile, don't be afraid to start a new article. I am not a draft reviewer, but I am a New Page reviewer, so I can't accept it but I took a look anyway. You seem to have a good idea on Wikipedia layout and style. The only thing I saw that might catch a reviewers eye that was major was that it is recording as a 30% on the copyright detector report. While it does appear that you mostly changed the wording from chintglobal.com/about-us-13; it may be a bit too close for the reviewers to want to accept. Maybe if you copyedit the phrasing a little more, a reviewer will like it a bit more. Also, its helpful on talk pages to sign your name by adding four tildes at the end (~~~~), and to link to the pages you mention: Draft:Chint Electric Happy Editing--IAmChaos(talk page stalker) 09:23, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Edit forgot to ping: @Vivatbela: Happy Editing--IAmChaos 09:24, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your input, User:IAmChaos! (I love my talk page stalkers!)

Vivatbela, I would make one additional suggestion. You have disclosed, on your user page, that you are being paid by Chint to create this article. It's good that you are being open about this, as Wikipedia requires. Please take a look at Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure#How to disclose, which recommends that you also disclose your conflict of interest on the draft article's talk page, and look at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#Paid editing for additional information. One other thing: I would suggest that you not be too impatient about getting it approved. As Chaos said, there are a lot of drafts, there are a limited number of draft reviewers, and it would be best for you to patiently wait your turn. -- MelanieN (talk) 17:40, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected pages needing PC reset

Hello, the following pages are indefinitely semi-protected but still haven't had their prior PC settings reset:

• John Schnatter
• Kelly Preston
• Chaz Bono

Can you please take care of this? Thanks. Larsenian (talk) 20:29, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

•  Done Thanks for calling these to my attention. -- MelanieN (talk) 21:48, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Chinese government response to COVID-19

Just in case you didn't notice, I blocked the two most recent edit warriors before you fully protected the page and warned the users on the article Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 18:49, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

I saw that after I acted; sorry. Do you think I should remove the full protection? -- MelanieN (talk) 18:53, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

For the moment yes, but it may be needed later if editors start battling at the article instead of discussing on the Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:01, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Done. I have restored the pre-existing ECP protection. Hopefully this will teach the two you blocked (who have been here long enough to know better) not to simply keep reverting each other. Thanks. -- MelanieN (talk) 23:36, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
