Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Edit warring of IP users. Sciencefish (talk) 07:23, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Sciencefish: Do you mean WP:ECP (30/500 protection)? Semi-protection is all that is needed for IP users. However, a quick look does not show which edits are vandalism or which are edit warring. Please identify some problem edits with a brief explanation, preferably on article talk where the editors concerned have a chance of seeing it. Johnuniq (talk) 09:50, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- WP:ECP (30/500 protection), yes, but will take to talk as advised. Thanks. Sciencefish (talk) 10:25, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Johnuniq (talk) 09:53, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Reason: High level of IP vandalism SuperMightyBoy (talk) 08:12, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- @SuperMightyBoy: Are you sure it is vandalism as defined at that link? A couple of edits I checked looked defensible (I'm not saying they were correct as I don't know, but they did not appear to be vandalism). Can you identify a couple of problems on article talk?

- Please protect the page SuperMightyBoy (talk) 09:58, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Declined – OP has failed to substantiate their request. Favonian (talk) 11:15, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

User(s) blocked. @Cl3phact0: Please let me know, or post here again, if problems continue. Johnuniq (talk) 10:00, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism from IP address recently. CricketXP (talk) 09:56, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of three weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Johnuniq (talk) 10:03, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Reason: I am writing on behalf of Reform UK. During the recent election campaign there have been some attempts to misrepresent the party on Wikipedia, including labelling the party as a neo-fascist political party. These disruptive edits should be limited and we would be grateful for your support. ReformUK2024 (talk) 09:59, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Declined @ReformUK2024: Quite a lot of edits are happening and very few have been reverted. That, and a quick check, makes it look like there is not a vandalism problem. Please discuss any proposed edits at the article talk page. Questions can be asked at WP:Teahouse. Johnuniq (talk) 10:08, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Reason: High level of IP vandalism, arbitrary edits with poorly sourced and un-sourced drivelling Rustyshackelford (talk) 10:20, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Declined I'm not seeing many IP edits - three in the last 2 months - but I will keep an eye on it to see if there are ongoing concerns. - Bilby (talk) 10:30, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Someone keeps adding unsourced actors. Kailash29792 (talk) 10:44, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Favonian (talk) 12:12, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IPs don't understand WP: COMMONNAME, subject changed their name but is still best known by their birth name. Nswix (talk) 13:02, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
