Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent socking by banned User:HarveyCarter who has been on about how the UK started WWII (not Hitler). Binksternet (talk) 16:15, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not HarveyCarter and I never said the UK started WWII, only that the RAF began bombing Germany on 11 May 1940 and not 15 May. Please at least correct that mistake in the article. (FairleighJ (talk) 16:27, 1 October 2015 (UTC))

Temporary Semi-protection: Since the beginning of August, IPs have been changing (sourced) information in this featured article. I've attempted to engage on their talk page (which is difficult due to being changing IPs) and on the article's talk page. The only other editor to engage (it is an obscure article) has agreed with me regarding the IPs inappropriate changes. I've now reverted 3 times over the course of two months, so I don't want to run afoul of 3RR and I'm not sure what further action to take since the IPs are not engaging.

Removal of semi-protection: Today, this RfA was vandalized three times within ten minutes [1][2][3] by the same IP editor 2600:1000:b00f:d68c:63b7:80d8:480d:3c08 (talk · contribs). The IP editor was quickly reverted by three different editors. None of the editors chose to warn the IP editor (note the red linked talk page (now blue, post facto)). The last editor to revert, administrator @Ritchie333:, subsequently indefinitely semi-protected the RfA [4]. There are two significant issues at play here. First, This goes against protection policy which states this should be used "when blocking individual users is not a feasible option" There was only one non-IP hopping unregistered user that was committing the vandalism, and that editor was never even warned. The protection was out of process, and done against policy. Second, there is consensus that IPs may contribute. There have been three different discussions in the last year suggesting that RfAs should be semi protected to prevent unregistered editors from commenting. They are here, here and here. All three of these discussions concluded with IPs being allowed to comment, and two of them clearly marked as there being consensus to allow IPs to comment. With the indefinite semi-protection of this RfA, intended to stop one IP from contributing, all IP editors are prevented from editing the RfA. This goes directly against the standing consensus. I have raised the issue with the protecting admin: His response has been to dismiss the consensus decisions as they apply to preemptive protection, yet those discussions specifically reached consensus that IPs may contribute. Further, he bases his decision on precedent of two other administrators applying protection to RfAs this year here and [5] here. The problem with using these as precedents is that in both cases there was IP hopping going on. In the former case, the decision to protect preceded two of the consensus decisions, and in the latter case the RfA had already closed when the vandalism began. The protecting admin is preventing IP editors to contribute which goes against well established consensus and is also using semi-protection improperly. Since the protecting admin is refusing to remove the protection (see discussion), I am bringing the issue here. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 14:44, 2 October 2015 (UTC)
Done My fault really, I should have just blocked the IP when I did the first revert - missed the subsequent drama, sorry. I'll unprotect the page and block the IP for 24 hours. Yunshui 雲水 14:51, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Indefinite full protection: Persistent vandalism – I am tired of seeing and reverting this very specific vandalism that is being done to this article consistently for nearly all of 2015 and much of 2014, including on Ari Teman which had to be deleted after a lawsuit was initiated. Enough is enough. It's a notable organization, honored by the White House (and there are multiple news sources). Wikipedia vandals spent a FULL YEAR constantly defaming its founder and it needs to stop. This is why folks say you cannot trust Wikipedia as a source.
- There's a definite slow motion content dispute going on but it seems to be about vested interests trying to whitewash things. I really wouldn't be surprised if this request wasn't made by Ari Teman or someone associated with him at this point. tutterMouse (talk) 13:07, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

Well, most of the songs are written by Max Martin, Savan Kotecha, Ryan Tedder and Calvin Harris, but Continuous isn't mentioned as a writer or producer on ANY of them, yet they keep adding them as a producer. That is clearly false. Plus, no one ever adds the source for album producers, they're just listed as the people who contributed the most work to the album. And either way, this person is clearly a troll or a bot, because they will not stop, even though I have told them they are putting false information on the page.
Fully protected for a period of 1 day, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Smoore95GAGA, so basically you're edit warring and breaking WP:3RR over unsourced information. I've fully protected the article to stop the edit war and avoid handing out blocks but all contentious information needs to be sourced. This, for example, lists two producers. Articles will be semi-protected against repeated additions of unsourced info by IP editors but not when both sides have no sources for their claims. NeilN talk to me 00:55, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Question: @CFCF: I see full protection, not template-editor protection NeilN talk to me 14:38, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
- I see, the issue is that the lock icon is red, which can be found at Template-editor protected pages. I can't find the link to the protection icon in the template, but it would be less confusing if we could follow some sort of rule on this. It would be better to use the Wikipedia:Protection_policy#full consistently or to lower the protection level (as I don't understand why it is editable only by admins and not template-editors).

Declined While there are a lot of edits, I can't obviously see how any of them are vandalism, which we define as deliberately making Wikipedia worse. A misguided or erroneous fix, if well-intended, could be disruptive, but it won't be vandalism. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:47, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Question: Why did you pick these articles, because they're common words? I remember when you tried to get several arrays of random common words protected before and I'm still not clear why you think requesting protection for articles like this is useful as none of these articles have much editing traffic nor vandalism frequently enough. tutterMouse (talk) 10:13, 8 October 2015 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection.

As Wbm1058 is working on it, we can hopefully take this protection off in due course as being unnecessary. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 10:29, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Temporary Semi-protection: This page is a stub, but it is periodically vandalized by anons. Btw, after 2 years of truce, anons started again: this edits (20 september) and, 6 days after my rollback, this edits (6 october). Starting from 2011, me and other users did some cleanup, several times. At this point I think that this contribs, that could appear as noob edits, are IMHO clear vandalisms, in bad faith. The copy of a WP link in "caps lock" to the same person, linked in the above line, the removal of brackets to that link, to add a substantial repetition of infos in the lead section, is really similar to some old edits (just to make an example). I request a temporary semi-protection, just to prevent another season of vandalisms. I check it periodically, from 2011, and I never requested pro; but if the situation is again the same after 4 years, is now time for a long semi-pro, IMHO. It would be a valid signal for the vandals, this page is not a free-vandalism area. It is a stub about a little village, but it has more vandalisms (or absolutely not notable and OT facts) than edits. Thanks. --Dэя-Бøяg 03:13, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent violation of Discretionary Sanctions on articles related to transgender issues and paraphilia classification (e.g. hebephilia). Edits being made and reverted back are in regard to Caitlyn Jenner - users have been repeatedly placing "(then Bruce)" after Caitlyn Jenner's name. Jenner is known as Caitlyn - according to Jenner, she has always been Caitlyn (as is noted and cited at the Jenner article). Noting in an article not about Jenner that Caitlyn was formerly known as Bruce Jenner is unnecessary -- readers can click on the Caitlyn Jenner article link and see who Jenner was formerly known as.
The Arbitration Committee has permitted Wikipedia administrators to impose discretionary sanctions on any editor editing this page or associated pages. The Brandon and Leah article is related to Caitlyn Jenner as Brandon Jenner is Caitlyn's son.
Alerts have been placed on the user pages of those violating the DS for Jenner related articles. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 03:42, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
- Jenner has never said she was always Caitlyn she said she was always a woman. I put (then Bruce) because if you are just reading that page you will think Brandon was born when she was called Caitlyn and his mother is a lesbian (both untrue) it is to avoid confusion. It would be a different matter if it said is the son of Linda and Caitlyn which it does not. This has been discussed in WP:Village pump (policy)/Archive 121#MOS:IDENTITY clarification. 92.237.211.110 (talk) 04:00, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - Winkelvi has reverted Brandon & Leah 4-times in less than 24-hours. The Caitlyn Jenner article is 1RR AFAIK. Brandon & Leah is 3RR AFAIK. I rely on my interpretation of MOS:IDENTITY coupled with the discussion here at the Village Pump. Please advise. IMHO, Winkelvi is illinformed, and therefore his/her good faith reverts are in fact the only disruption to the page. Checkingfax (talk) 05:57, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism/inappropriate edits over the past few days (about 30 of the last 50 edits to the page at the time of this post). Most of these have been small changes to formatting that are not appropriate (eg. removing m-dashes around clauses, removing the colons where content should be indented, and editing refs resulting in multiple errors). It's hard to say whether this is just incorrect edits or intentional disruptive editing/vandalism. These edits have caused many formatting problems/errors in the content, but it's hard to fix the article because the anonymous edits from a couple of different IP addresses have persisted, despite repeated reversals by several editors. I want to fix all these problems, but it's hard when the edits persist. Messages have been left on the talk pages of both problem IP addresses without a response. Please semi-protect this page so that: 1) the errors on the page can be fixed and 2) the anonymous editor(s) are encouraged to create and account and explain why they are making those edits (because they haven't responded to the talk page).

Declined The page has been under Pending Changes protection for less than a week. Let's give the PC protection a chance. MelanieN (talk) 00:47, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
- MelanieN: We gave it a chance... and it failed.Cebr1979 (talk) 00:58, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
- Cebr, I see only one set of edits (four total) by an IP since the protection went in. An autoconfirmed editor accepted two of those edits; you disagreed and deleted them. That's still only one instance of problematic editing; at this point that's not enough for semiprotection IMO. If problem edits become more frequent we can consider going to semi. --MelanieN (talk) 01:10, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

- Cebr, you requested semiprotection two days ago, and it was declined because there had been only one recent incorrect edit. Now there has been one more, so you are requesting protection again. I'll give it a few days, but please understand: semi-protection is for REPEATED disruption. It is not going to be imposed every time an IP makes an edit you disagree with. --MelanieN (talk) 01:26, 12 October 2015 (UTC)

Request for non-content removing protection. This is a talk page, talks on the main article are the freedom and right for anyone. But someone's section created a year ago has been reverted continuously by two other editors. Reverting other's normal talks is unfair, and disruptive edit.

- Upon further review, none of the transclusions were actually being discussed, I started removing the easy ones, but there are about 130 remaining that have to be removed.

Semi-protection: Currently "A-Class" Article. High level or deletion and changes due to recent release of movie "Bridge of Spies". Have wiki-linked only once to certain words etc through to be consistent. As Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment/A-Class states in A2 "The article is comprehensive, factually accurate, neutral and focused on the main topic; it neglects no major facts or details, presents views fairly and without bias, and does not go into unnecessary detail". Therefore people should not be deleting information if people from Military History have passed it due to the above criteria.

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – An IP jumping anonymous editor is adding claims that the subject of the article has plagiarized a number of songs. Most of the sources supplied are not reliable sources (blogs and the like). The ones that are merely repeat the allegations but do not provide any proof (court cases, lawsuits, in-depth analyses by expert witnesses, etc) or rely upon the listener to hear it for themselves.
It seems to me that accusing someone of plagiarism is a very big deal and under the purview of BLP concerns.
Additionally there is a table that the IP keeps inserting which makes the claims without any discussion of who has made the accusations and whether they have any legal support. Including the table makes it look like a fact that the subject has plagiarized these songs while no supporting evidence has been provided. This strikes me as an even bigger BLP concern.
Finally, there is a talk page discussion going on which the IP has not taken part in but continues to edit war instead.

- Anna Politkovskaya (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) -- The editor who was edit-warring has said he will no longer edit the article ([28]), so no need to worry about continued edit-warring.

Unprotected OK. I am sure Drmies will quit sending me Girl Scout Cookies for reversing his actions. For shame. kelapstick(bainuu) 21:04, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- Kelapstick, I'll send you some cookies alright. Are you sure these cats won't reinsert the information that--let me count--at least three admins thought questionable per BLP? Drmies (talk) 21:50, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- Drmies, no I am not (so feel free to reinstate if you think it will be a problem), however since it's being discussed at the talk page, and the BLPN, it wouldn't be prudent to start edit warring the addition of questionable material again. Lest one be blocked, under numerous criteria. --kelapstick(bainuu) 22:17, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Unprotection: creation of new article. several WP:RS surpassing WP:CORPDEPTH. Widefox; talk 15:14, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
Question: Do you have a draft started to move into place? kelapstick(bainuu) 15:20, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- Have 2014 sources > GNG. I normally preview and create directly (I do have 40k edits). It will pass CORPDEPTH and not be an attack page. Widefox; talk 15:29, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- If you do it like that then it may be easier to create a draft in your sandbox or in the draftspace and then have an admin move it across, that way no one can come along and create it while you are working on the page properly.--Ditto51 (My Talk Page) 15:59, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- I'm sure the precaution isn't about a race-condition with the unsalting (you realise it was unsalted for a couple of weeks before, we're only talking minutes), but sensible (perhaps cautious) question of content/sourcing/notability. Twinkle took me here, I see I should've asked the salting admin first, but won't now in case it's considered forum shopping. Widefox; talk 16:27, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
Unprotected Alright Widefox, saying you will write the article is as good as having a draft in place for me. Typical protocol would be to request from the protecting admin prior to requesting here, but given it's standard creation protection, I don't see that as being an issue. kelapstick(bainuu) 19:10, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Inappropriate use of user talk page while blocked – User was blocked and talk page access was revoked in 2014. IP's, probably socks of the user, have been sporadically messing with the page since then. Safiel (talk) 15:32, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

- Comment - I don't see a content dispute, but there is a slow edit war due to conduct issues by some editors. I think they can be sorted out. No need for page protection yet. - Kautilya3 (talk) 11:10, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
- Indefinite semi-protection: This will save everybody's time. Full protection will stop editing which is not what Wikipedia stands for. This will also prevent suspected IP socking, though there is no evidence that those IP editors are socks. --The Avengers (talk) 11:16, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
- +1 for Indefinite semi-protection. I can prove that the IPs were socks of each other (which happens with IP hoppers), but I don't yet know if a registered user is a puppeteer. - Kautilya3 (talk) 11:33, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Kautilya3: All havocs on this page are started by IPs, despite being very controversial topic this article remains silent and no one usually do edit war on this unless any IP touches this article. Everyone is accepting that there is a slow edit war and no content dispute, but protection is done mainly for "edit wars" not content dispute. So many people are commenting here which shows that article is in big trouble. --Human3015TALK 11:47, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
- I will also support indefinite semi-protection. This article is ruined by IPs. Gross POV pushing is big issue with IP edits. --Human3015TALK 11:50, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – At a critical time for this article on Canada's Election Day, this article seems to be under attack from a range of IPs. There ARE no more polls allowed for this election, by law. So a temporary semi-protection does no harm, as no valid updates are possible -- save I guess for adding the final vote.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Well, no vandalism was done today, but checking the revision history shows that this page is repeatedly vandalised by IPs. The subject of the article is sensuous which will attract vandals to this page. I can guarantee that this IP vandalism will never stop. The Avengers (talk) 07:16, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – A recent news item in Pakistani media has brought out edit-warring IP's to this page. I request semi-protection for a month to let the issues to be sorted out in a congenial manner. Kautilya3 (talk) 14:13, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. kelapstick(bainuu) 12:45, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
I am sorry. That is wrong the decision. A socking IP has done more than 3 reverts on a page that is under discretionary sanctions. Now the edit-warring is heating up. If you don't semi-protect the page, discretionary sanction has no meaning, because the unregistered users can keep reverting and the registered users have to sit by and watch. This is clearly not the meaning of "discretionary sanctions." - Kautilya3 (talk) 15:03, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- NeilN, do you mind having a look for a second opinion? --kelapstick(bainuu) 15:06, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- kelapstick, declined as well. The IP is not socking (there's no improper purpose that I can see), is using the talk page, and is supported by at least one experienced editor. Content dispute. Kautilya3, if you suspect socking please identify the master. I don't think the article is under any special revert restrictions and registered editors are reverting each other. A one month WP:1RR restriction might help. --NeilN talk to me 15:35, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- Much thanks NeilN. --kelapstick(bainuu) 15:43, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- My newly added content was repeatedly deleted 4 times in the last few days: [30], [31], [32], [33]. Possibly NA122, the first reverter there, is the sockmaster, but there is not enough history to confirm. The IPs have used each other's words and referred to each other's edits. It is likely the same editor. There is an edit war about a Daily Pakistan news item, and I am caught in the cross-fire. Having to put up with this hampers my editing work. - Kautilya3 (talk) 20:47, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- We are assuming the IP is the same editor. Have they broken WP:3RR? --NeilN talk to me 20:55, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- No, they haven't. But that is because of my go-slow policy. If it was a regular editor, I would have reverted them within minutes because their justifications are bogus, and then 3RR would have been reached pretty quickly. The point is that "discretionary sanctions" is disadvantaging the regular editors like me while giving a free reign to the IP's. That is why I am asking for a semi-protection. Nothing stops them from registering if they are serious editors. - Kautilya3 (talk) 22:03, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- Let me also point out that, last time this kind of thing happened, you sent us to DRN [34] and enormous number of man-hours were wasted before the moderator had to close the case as having "failed." This kind of thing is not practical. For contentious subjects like the Kashmir Dispute, we simply can't afford to keep putting up with drive-by IP editors who are here merely to push a POV. - Kautilya3 (talk) 22:12, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- Kautilya3, it's not a free reign for the IP editor. He is bound by the same policies you are. Protection is constantly asked for on these types of articles and we're not going to set a precedent on this board by saying only registered editors are "serious" editors. I do have one suggestion for you. See if there's consensus to implement WP:ARBPIA-style editing restrictions on these articles. "All articles related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, broadly construed, are under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24-hour period). When in doubt, assume it is related. Clear vandalism of whatever origin may be reverted without restriction. Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors that are not vandalism are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring." --NeilN talk to me 02:21, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

BillyBoy* Please Read the RFPP Request First
Short-term semi-pending-changes protection: Please try not to block the user. as I would like to have a conversation with them first. PP should calm the situation and prevent the revert-stream, so allowing engagement. Rather than templating/blocking the user and damaging to the opportunity to engage with Suzy Wong (talk · contribs) as they are likely to be a useful source of information if we can find sources, and I don't want them to run off to another account/IP where they can't be engaged. Sladen (talk) 09:33, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- Sladen, Suzy Wong will be autoconfirmed with one more edit, which would negate the effectiveness of semiprotection. --kelapstick(bainuu) 13:24, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- kelapstick That's a fair point, well made. As Suzy Wong is only at 9/10 it would ensure that the next edit (only) needed to be constructive and not a revert of the same. I think we're close, so this is probably all that's needed. —Sladen (talk) 13:56, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

I feel they have are ruining the article's well-written reputation and it's "A-Class" assessment. Furthermore, I didn't even get to see the outcome of my last comment and it's gone.

- In the absence of vandalism or disruption of any sort, how is semi-protection justified? As noted, the only disruption was by the unjustified reverts of the protecting admin. 208.87.234.201 (talk) 14:56, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- @NeilN: - by all means feel free to reduce to semi. The reason I protected it was due to seeing an IP making massive and unexplained changes to it. AGF only goes so far... GiantSnowman 16:56, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- First, this is not supported by the facts. None of the IP edits was disruptive, and they were properly documented in summary and the template doc. "IP making massive ... changes" is not a reason for protection. Neither is this a high-risk/visible templates. Read the appropriate policies (WP:PP, WP:TPE, WP:EDIT, WP:HRT). Nothing there justifies any protection. However, in clear contravention of WP:TPE, you removed functionality. Removed parameters. And, made a mess by delinking the template code from the proper doc version, which no longer reflects the code. The template should be fully unprotected, and your disruptive reverts should be reverted to the version of the template that has full functionality. There are pending changes that I need to make to make the template better. 72.43.99.130 (talk) 17:53, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Semi-protected Per the transclusion count. Restored IP's edits. NeilN talk to me 18:31, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- Unprotection: Remove semi-protection. No evidence of activity justifying any restrictions on editing. No evidence it falls under WP:PTPROT as it is not "Highly visible ... used on an extremely large number of pages or substituted with great frequency". 72.43.99.130 (talk) 20:07, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- From my talk page: 'WP:PTPROT reads: "Highly visible templates which are used on an extremely large number of pages or substituted with great frequency are particularly vulnerable to vandalism, as vandalism to the template may introduce vandalism to hundreds of other pages. Therefore, they are frequently semi- or template-protected based on the degree of visibility, type of use, content, and other factors" (emphasis mine). The template in question has 500+ transclusions. Semi-protecting it is not at all unusual. If you browse Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Rolling archive you'll see templates regularly being semi-protected.' No objection from me if another admin has a different view and lifts protection. GiantSnowman may wish to be consulted. --NeilN talk to me 20:31, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

It is reasonable to prophylactically protect this page from unexperienced editors, as well as from individuals who wish to present an unsubstantiated opinion. Given that false facts and data has been present on this page since 2010 (false claims of data being from a publication) and the potentially sensitive nature of this article, it is in the best interest until expert reviewers can ensure the pages quality.

Full protection: Continuous unjustified deletions on a page I created and edited alone. POV pushing by deleting editors, no contributions by them whatsoever. All well sourced with reliable sources.

Last deletion from User:My very best wishes seems to be WP:SNEAKY: "reverting legitimate edits with the intent of hindering the improvement of pages."

Semi-protection: There is currently a talk page discussion and a reliable sources discussion about re-adding a lengthy/unsourced/OR table which people commenting before today found inappropriate to keep. After I removed it, three drive-by users (two IPs, 1 2 and one newly-created account) who made no other edits to the encyclopedia reverted my changes.

- @LjL: I removed it. At this point there is no consensus either way, but repeatedly adding the material while it is being disputed and under discussion is disruptive IMO.

Temporary semi-protection: my request is, more or less, for the same reasons shown in my request for its homonym village, Khunda, Punjab, that was protected using "pending changes". Also this article is a stub about a village, but is periodically vandalized by anons and new single-edit users that, despite any cleanup, simply fill the page, again and again, of irrelevant facts, lists of anything, unverified content, POV, their names and FB accounts, very badly formatted text etc. This version, cleaned-up by Mean as custard, could be a good example: after the "references" section title it is a sort of attack to a person (the smuggler), name and surname of edit's author that, despite the existence of a lead section, simply repeats the text, adding a list of everything including "admirable peope" (??). Last version, before my cleanup, shows also FB and Twitter accounts of the author. Btw, the habit of anons to fill this page of any kind of giibberish is old, simply repeated ignoring any clean-up (and pre-existent text). This game continues from 2010, and maybe vandals think that the page is a sort of "abandoned sandbox/battlefield" in which anybody could write his list of admirable people, Twitter page; showing carelessness for any attempt to wikify it. So, for this reasons, a temporary semi-pro (also using "pending changes") could be a very useful signal to remark that WP hasn't "free-vandalism areas", and to prevent further vandalisms. Thanks a lot. --Dэя-Бøяg 15:13, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

Indefinite template protection: Highly visible template – So that template editors may edit. Steel1943 (talk) 14:07, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Steel1943: There's only 43 transclusions. Can you think of any reason why this template needs any protection? --NeilN talk to me 19:05, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
- @NeilN: It looks as though the template was permanently protected by Orderinchaos (who has made only 2 edits since the end of August) on 28 March 2008 due to vandalism issues. Other than that, the template has only 1 transclusion on a page that is neither on a user (talk) page or a subpage: Wikipedia:Learning the ropes. In my opinion, I would say that since it has been over 7 years with no proof of recent issues (not even on the talk page), in my opinion, it would probably be safe to downgrade the protection to at least semi-protection, given that most of the old vandalism seemed to be caused by IPs and non-confirmed editors.

Not done What I see is you and another editor reverting an IP, and a discussion between that other editor and the IP on the talk page. That doesn't look like a consensus to me, it looks like an edit war, and you are asking admins to take your side in it. If it keeps up, full protection would be warranted, but this request is denied. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:31, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
- It was not my intention to take "my side". I don't have a side. What I saw was an IP making a sweeping change with created awkward wording and after multiple edits finally took it to the talk page. When they met disagreement, they began using different IPs to rotate their edits. If I was mistaken, then I apologize for taking up your time. Dharmalion76 (talk) 00:32, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
- (Non-administrator comment) This looks a lot like an edit war, so I've warned both Dharmalion76 and the latest IP in an effort to promote discussion on the talk page.

- A warning is never a way to "promote discussion". Dharmalion76 (talk) 00:32, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
- You seem to be suffering from a few misunderstandings. One is what warnings are for. they are not threats, they are warnings, like a warning sign on a road. their purpose is to help you understand that you are heading into a dangerous situation (an edit war) and you there could be consequences ( a block) if you aren't careful. The other is the often misunderstood phenonmenon of "IP hopping". Some users mistakenly believe that every time they see a user using multiple IP adresses, they are up to no good. The fact is that in many cases, a user has little to no control over what IP they might be using. This is a function of how their internet connection works, and what kind of device they are using. If they are using a mobile device it will change constantly. There is nothing dishonest or suspiscious about it. Hope that helps. Beeblebrox (talk) 00:53, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. NeilN talk to me 01:09, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
Semi. IP is skirting 3RR to add material that has been tagged as unsourced (and that contradicts our sources) with the explanation that it is "unsourced". I suppose that could be incompetence. They are also deleting the ISO name of the language, "Ganda", which I recently added a ref for (not that we need a ref for the lead), claiming that it is unsourced, despite the fact that it's used in the article and not long ago we had a discussion as to which name the article should be under with lots of sources for both. So, either semi page protection or a block on the IP, or it looks like this is going to be chronic disruption. — kwami (talk) 17:52, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

Un-SALTing: A "holding" page with no content was created for this title eight years ago. It was, correctly, deleted and WP:SALTed. However, today, eight years later, a growing number of RS are discussing the topic to the point that the creation of this page would be more than a simple "holding" page and would actually have meaningful and useful content. Specifically, the question of electoral reapportionment following the 2020 census has prompted at least one peer-reviewed study, at least one popular study, and a significant amount of RS-originating discussion. Ultimately, this is sufficient for a short article and no possible title to create an article containing this information would be more appropriate than "United States presidential election, 2024." I have created a draft here in my sandbox for review and request the page by un-salted so it can be re-created. The salting adming appears to be inactive.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Bella and the Bulldogs was protected on July 15, 2015, by NeilN until January 16, 2016, later January 17, 2016, after the page was temporarily fully protected by Cyphoidbomb, due to a persistent addition of a negative BLP. Shortly after that, I split the article and asked CB if he could preemptively protect this article; he said you guys don't do that. However, now that that disruptive editing has started here, I would like to request a semi-protection until at least January 17, 2016, only allowing auto-confirmed users to edit.
