Anthem of the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic

Pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – repeated additions of material of unclear copyright status. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:15, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Note: @Diannaa: I'm a bit mystified by this. What exactly does "unknown copyright status" mean? Does this mean we have no evidence that there was any copyvio? Samsara 18:00, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
What it means is that we don't know the copyright status of the English translations of the anthems (translations enjoy copyright protection on their own, regardless of the copyright status of the original material). The two versions of the anthem are in the public domain, but we don't know when or by whom the translations were produced. Therefore it's impossible to determine what their copyright status is. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 18:04, 31 March 2019 (UTC)
Hmm... it's been on the English Wikipedia since 2011 [1]. I wonder if the user who submitted it could shed some light on the situation. In a quick search, I couldn't find any evidence that this existed on the web prior to that date. This is not the best venue for this, but I believe we're better served clarifying the situation rather than continuing to defend a position on which we may be in the wrong. Samsara 18:45, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Echoing Lectonar's decline above, we don't use full protection in cases of persistent vandalism (and definitely not indefinite full protection, as you requested here). It looks like the vandalism has been made by anonymous and new user accounts; semi-protection is definitely a sufficient enough level of protection to apply that will put a stop to the disruption, and is the protection level that's currently applied here. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 08:44, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Long protection log, obvious target. Pending changes is useless on this article. Kingerikthesecond (talk) 08:28, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

Declined @Kingerikthesecond: Why is pending changes useless? None of the about 5 disruptive edits in the last week went "live", which is what pending changes is for. What makes you think the article is an obvious target? If you have not done so already, please read our protection policy Lectonar (talk) 08:35, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
I agree with Lectonar - pending changes protection seems to be working perfectly here. I don't see a need to modify it to be semi-protection. This protection level is not only made for articles that have a lower rate of disruptive edits, but it allows for anonymous users to make legitimate edits and have them reviewed and published after approval. Why change what's working perfectly and allows for as many users to edit the page as possible? :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 08:54, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
It's an obvious target due to its name, an disruptive edits, whether "live" or not, are still disruptive, and there are far too many of such edits for PC to work efficiently. I don't want to see an article's history page being full of crap. I see no reason as to why to continue with PC on this article, almost no IP and new user edits here are not legitimate anyway. --Kingerikthesecond (talk) 09:20, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Kingerikthesecond - I agree that the article's name will make it a target for vandalism regarding a word that's.... similar in spelling. I don't refute this at all. However, given the low amount of edits, I think that the current protection level is fine. In fact, there's an edit by an anonymous user here that appears to be made in good faith and is awaiting review right now. This user wouldn't have been able to make this edit at all had the protection level been changed to be semi-protection. :-) If vandalism or disruption starts to occur here and at a high rate and at a high level of severity, I'm definitely open to changing the protection level set on the article. I just don't think that this is the case right now... ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 10:25, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

Request for long-tern semi-protection: edits from IPs (and all edits for a while before mine) have been reverted.  Nixinova  T  C  23:29, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

Declined. That's absolutely not a reason to request protection on an article. If your edits were reverted, you need to resolve the issue properly by following Wikipedia's dispute resolution protocol. Protection is not a method of gaining the upper hand so that you can restore the edits you made and change the article to the revision that you feel is correct. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 01:31, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

Note: Sorry, but this request gives me pause. An account with only 18 edits is requesting 30/500 protection on a list of articles and citing Arbitration enforcement as the reason? Granted, the account is two years old, but all of their edits have been made today (minus two edits back in 2017 on their user space). Either this user has edited for quite some time before creating this account (which prompts me to look into things deeper and at all angles), or this user lacks the experience to make these requests accurately. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:04, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

The articles listed either don't appear to require 30/500 protection due to urgent matters, or aren't part of the topic areas where remedies exist that call for 30/500 protection for simply being within the given topic areas. The general sanctions cited in the request ('Syrian Civil War' and 'ISIL') do not state that 30/500 protection must be applied, nor does it restrict editing by any accounts that are less than 30 days old and have less than 500 total edits. It does state that the remedies (in general) "mirror those of WP:ARBPIA", but the remedies are all clearly detailed and outlined further down the page. These articles may have sections that relate to this topic area, but they do not fully do so. If you look at the enforcement logs for this general sanction, only one page has had protection applied since its enactment in 2013. I don't see protection here as necessary, but I'll leave this request open for other admins to review and provide input. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:16, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Note: Angling sounds reasonable. Not seeing the need. Ain't broke. DlohCierekim 15:43, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Note: I reverted an unsourced pair of edits on Status of the Golan Heights made by Boulevard of Broken Dreams (great song BTW). Pending changes applied to Syria 'cause though W is the encyclopedia anyone can edit, it isn't the encyclopedia everyone should edit DlohCierekim 15:52, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
  • Well...some of the admins working on requests for protection (myself included) are at least waiting for disruption by IPs to have actually happened before applying extended-confirmed protection. In the sanctions mentioned in the ARCA, other forms of dealing with disruption are explicitly allowed. Lectonar (talk) 09:16, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
  • "All IP editors, accounts with fewer than 500 edits, and accounts with less than 30 days tenure are prohibited from editing any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict"—It doesn't say to wait for disruption. El_C 09:19, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
  • "Uninvolved administrators are encouraged to monitor the articles covered by discretionary sanctions in the original Palestine-Israel case to ensure compliance. To assist in this, administrators are reminded that:

(i) Accounts with a clear shared agenda may be blocked if they violate the sockpuppetry policy or other applicable policy;

(ii) Accounts whose primary purpose is disruption, violating the policy on biographies of living persons, or making personal attacks may be blocked indefinitely;

(iii) There are special provisions in place to deal with editors who violate the BLP policy;

(iv) Administrators may act on clear BLP violations with page protections, blocks, or warnings even if they have edited the article themselves or are otherwise involved; (v) "Discretionary sanctions permit full and semi-page protections, including use of pending changes where warranted, and – once an editor has become aware of sanctions for the topic – any other appropriate remedy may be issued without further warning." Lectonar (talk) 09:22, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

The preferred method of enforcement is "This prohibition is preferably enforced by the use of extended confirmed protection, but where that is not feasible, it may also be enforced by reverts, page protections, blocks, the use of pending changes, and appropriate edit filters" WP:ARBPIA3#500/30. The alternative enforcement measure here is to take editors who break ARBPIA3's general prohibition to AE - which happens a few times a year - and generally results either with a very strong warning or a TBAN+block (if editor is aware). ECP protection is better, for all involved, than kicking this can to AE (I can drag up a few case files for this - I've filed some ). Icewhiz (talk) 09:27, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
As you say: preferred. I am somewhat loath to protect articles which have not been disrupted....last IP edit in Quneitra Governorate was sometime in August last year, no IP edits in Status of the Golan heights... Lectonar (talk) 09:33, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
ECP isn't just IPs - it's also low-edit accounts (which are, actually, often a bigger problem in the topic area). this edit is in breach of the restriction. The alternative route to ECP (which is a simple request to implement - and is obvious in applicability here) is AE - here is an example of how that drama plays out - TBAN + block, appeal declined, appeal-#2 declined. IIRC I ended up going AE in one case where I had an ECP request declined - but I might be remembering things wrong (generally - I'd take an editor to AE over this only if they are "hopping" to new articles not ECPed yet or if they're doing "other stuff" (e.g. PAs) as well - but if articles don't get ECPed, well....).

Indefinite extended confirmed: Arbitration enforcement – Related to Arab-Israeli conflict, arbitration notice for this already on talk page. funplussmart (talk) 01:52, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Note: I see neither need nor sound policy basis here. There is no currently ongoing disruption above the level it's protected at, and labelling this article as ARBPIA has BLP implications that we should probably avoid. I would suggest protecting this article according to requirement rather than putting it under the umbrella of the ARBCOM decision. Samsara 06:13, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
WP:A/I/PIA says that discretionary sanctions may be imposed for pages broadly interpreted while 30/500 is for reasonably construed. There was a whole clarification request about this very page! It's not 100% clear to me what the result was, as most of the energy moved toward the motion, but my read is that most were loathe to apply 30/500 to the page. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 10:55, 5 April 2019 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent vandalism – Page keeps on getting disruptive edited by IP. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 11:58, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

I don't think it is necessary to protect the article Cross-Strait relations. I do the recent changes there for some reasonable reasons. I just oppose to use the template {{Infobox bilateral relations}} in the article Cross-Strait relations due to the dispute of political status of Taiwan and just shows the so biased Taiwan independence opinion (only Taiwan independence supporters claim "Cross-Strait relations" as "China–Taiwan relations"). In addition, Cross-Strait relations is so ambiguous and controversial, because it can refef to the relation between the two regions: Chinese mainland and Taiwan area, or between the two regimes: People's Republic of China and Republic of China. However, the template {{Infobox bilateral relations}} can't show these two relations at the same time. Finally, due to the dispute of political status of Taiwan, it isn't better to show "Cross-Strait relations" as "Mainland–Taiwan relations" or "PRC–ROC relations". But it is accepted by everyone to use the neutral term "Cross-Strait relations". In conclusion, we should avoid using {{Infobox bilateral relations}} in the article Cross-Strait relations. 123.150.182.177 12:25, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
Note: Ethno-political POV pushing. ——SerialNumber54129 12:30, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
The template {{Infobox bilateral relations}} pushes the biased Taiwan independence opinion in the article Cross-Strait relations as I said, not me. I delete the template {{Infobox bilateral relations}} from the article Cross-Strait relations in order to keep the article's neutralism. In conclusion, the template {{Infobox bilateral relations}} makes a big mistake, and I just correct it. There is no problem for what I do. 123.150.182.177 12:52, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed: A bunch of IPs, and one account, have been repeatedly inserting unsourced content (some of it BLP) with aggressive edit summaries, apparently citing a primary source they have refused to link (and for a long time refused to even specifically identify) that is contradicted by the secondary source already cited inline.[14][15][16][17][18] They've also been removing maintenance tags without explanation, refusing attempts to communicate with them. The lack of responsiveness to warnings on their user talk pages doesn't bode well for talk page discussion, but forcing them to use the talk page rather than constantly reverting would be a step in the right direction.

Event Horizon Telescope

Semi-protection: Not vandalism, but a large volume of low quality edits (lack of citations, encyclopedic style, etc) from IP addresses. This is in light of a press conference today that announced the first photograph of a black hole.

Similar to the request to protect Messier 87 higher on this page, but this article has received significantly more attention (most people are likely not aware that M87 was even the target of the EHT as many news articles are not mentioning it).

Protection period need not be longer than a day, the hype will be unlikely to persist beyond today. Unless another popular youtuber publishes a video about it, in which case 3 days would probably be safe. Tar-Elessar (talk) 18:43, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

Dirk Nowitzki

Upgrade from pending changes to semi-protection for a day or two or three: In light of Nowitzki’s retirement announcement, the page is getting backed up with many pending requests from anonymous IPs, most of which are prematurely labeling him as a retired or former player, so even edit attempts from the auto-confirmed users who are trying to do the right thing are being frozen and backed up in the long queue of pending reviews. His team still has one more game in the season on April 10, and after that he will be officially retired. Semi-protection should last until at least the end of that game.

Hedwig Kohn

Unprotection: User:SouthernNights place an indefinite semi-protect on Hedwig Kohn. While obviously a semi-protect was needed as a result of very heavy Google Doodle related vandalism, I somehow don't think it was his intention to make it indefinite. The article has never been subject to protection in the past and the vandalism was of a transient nature, i.e. Google Doodle related. It seems 3 days would have been sufficient. I have notified the protecting administrator, User:SouthernNights but he is not on regularly, so leaving a request here as well. I request that the semi-protect be modified so as to expire on April 8, 2019, which is three days, which seems sufficient. Safiel (talk) 01:34, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

  • @Safiel:, looking through the article, I'm inclined to agree with you. I do see User:SouthernNights is sporadic in their edits here, but let's give them a chance to explain themselves first.

Temporary Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing by IP editors to include a bold edit on a WP:BLP, ignoring the article's talk page. May be politically motivated. Domeditrix (talk) 09:20, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

I would certainly decline a semi-protection. From the talk page discussion, which has not been completed, it is clear that this is a content dispute involving both confirmed and not confirmed users. The article should be either fully protected (and I am not sure I see a need for this at the moment) or not protected at all. The talk page discussion should run its course.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:27, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
Waiting for a second opinion.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:27, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
User:Ymblanter I agree that the discussion on the talk page has not been completed – the reason for the request is to prevent IP addresses from reverting to include the contentious bold edit while the discussion is still ongoing. As I understand, the default position of WP:BLPs, per WP:NOCONSENSUS, is for contentious bold edits not to appear on the page until some form of consensus has been reached or ruling applied. A temporary semi-protection request is a way of upholding that. Please correct me if my interpretation of WP:NOCONSENSUS is incorrect. If my interpretation of that policy is correct, but this isn't an avenue for upholding it, then I'd appreciate if you could help point me in the right direction. Domeditrix (talk) 11:32, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
User:Ymblanter All three reverts were done by three separate IPs, two of which have only ever edited this article. Of the extended confirmed accounts that have commented in favour of the reverts, two are are old accounts both created 2 years ago (2 years 2 months, 2 years 5 months) that have never edited before except on this article. Do you not find this suspicious? Mvolz (talk) 12:03, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
I do not particularly care whether the IPs and two new users are the same person or not, however, I see that their edits are not vandalism, not BLP violations, and that they are engaged at the talk page discussion. Unless they are all a sock of a blocked user, which so far I see no evidence of, semi-protection would give confirmed users an advantage in a content dispute.--Ymblanter (talk) 12:29, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
Yes, that's the idea; using socks and anonymous IPs gives a single user an advantage over confirmed users in a content dispute, by making it *appear* as if there are multiple people on their side, when in fact there is not. It also allows them to bypass 3RR. Stopping this is *why* we have page protection. Mvolz (talk) 14:18, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
Well, I disagree. Let us wait for a second opinion.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:30, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Additional info: one of the IPs that made the most recent revert has been blocked: Special:Contributions/2607:FEA8:BE60:28E:D8D4:87C7:B7C3:7FA0 Mvolz (talk) 15:01, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Ok, this is a completely different story then. I will protect now.--Ymblanter (talk) 15:27, 7 April 2019 (UTC)

Additional info: That IP range block associated with Special:Contributions/2607:FEA8:BE60:28E:D8D4:87C7:B7C3:7FA0 by User:Bbb23 was performed without revealing any evidence. I think there ought to be more proof provided that past edits associated with that IP bear any relation to the current discussion relating to the Layla Moran page. There is some questionable history, sure, but it looks like it is from a very long time ago. My best guess is that given the sensitive political nature of the page, Domeditrix did not initially get their way and is now trying leverage their contacts (or socks) and weed out opponents to their point of view from the talk page. This is pure bias. I am horrified at the allegations of sockpuppetry I am facing, when all I have done is stimulate discussion and share knowledge by writing up some legitimate and fully referenced content. As Ymblanter points out, this is in no way vandalism - just petty bullying by Domeditrix. Also, the block was obviously used to swing the decision on page protection in the first place! Unbelievable! Blatant WP:BITE and WP:AGF violations at the very least, not to mention corruption of WP:NOCONSENSUS practices. (Sophie Mills (talk) 21:49, 8 April 2019 (UTC))

Declined – No evidence was presented that the current semiprotection, by User:Ymblanter, is unwise. Hello User:Sophie Mills. If you disagree about the current balance of the article, you could try following the steps of WP:Dispute resolution. Your action in restoring this protection request from the archive was a bit peculiar. There are other ways to get disputes settled. Let me know if you have questions on how Wikipedia works. EdJohnston (talk) 19:07, 9 April 2019 (UTC)
EdJohnston, I would like to add that User:Ymblanter did not act unwisely. Rather, they were not presented with accurate facts.

Sami Yusuf

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent violations of WP:BLP. I'm bringing this case due to a request made to OTRS (VRTS ticket # 2019041010006871) by a representative of Clover Management on behalf of the article subject. The page is currently full-protected, but that will expire soon, and the BLP violations have been a concern for more than a decade (the talk page notes a related OTRS ticket dating back to 2007). Examples include [26] (I removed that one on my own initiative), [27] (still in the article, but debatable and unsourced), [28], [29], [30], [31] (that one in the other direction), and so on. "Classifying" Sami Yusuf seems to be a hot topic for his fans, and the article suffers. Worse, there seem to be real-life repercussions for Mr Yusuf, too. I think a valid case for indefinite protection can be made (the article was semi-protected temporarily many times over the years), and I'm bringing it here for a community review to help the involved parties navigate Wikipedia's behind-the-scenes pages; I'm wearing my OTRS hat here and am not going to implement the protection myself. Huon (talk) 14:45, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The previous protections weren't for very long, and I think we're jumping the gun by going straight to an indef before the article subject (or someone closely related is asking us to). We should try placing protection on the page with increasing duration of length, and if these don't resolve the matter, we can consider an indefinite application of semi-protection at that time, but we should consider it before trying. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:03, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
@Oshwah: Maybe I wasn't clear enough, but the subject's management is asking for permanent protection on the subject's behalf. Previous protections include one three-month stint and a six-month stint back in 2011 and 2013, and the problems nowadays seem exactly the same as the issues back then. Huon (talk) 16:58, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
Huon - I understand that they're asking for this, but I need to take the actions that I feel are the right thing to do and with policy and Wikipedia's founding principles in mind. The two six-month protections applied to the article were pending changes protection, not semi-protection that's being applied now. I still think that we should try a set duration and see how things go after it expires. After taking a deeper look at the article's history, I am inclined to agree with you to a significant extent. Hence, I've extended the duration to one year. Next year, we can evaluate the article and see if re-application of semi-protection is necessary after it expires. Please let me know if there still remains issues or concerns that are not addressed, and I'll be happy to work with you and discuss them. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 17:30, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – After some recent changes in school leadership, a plethora of vandalism, opinion/non-encyclopedic content, etc. has been added by a mix of accounts and IPs.

  • information Administrator note Endorsing this block. (I am temporarily involved.) Article was created today and began life as an insane puff-piece. I trimmed a lot of crap and got pushback from VeronicaJoseph5 who has since been blocked for 31 hours. The article received more disruption from an SPA, Uttam Roy28 who added some fluff about how "patriotic" and "spiritual" this person is/was. Other unsourced content here from Anon at 2409:4060:2012:5d89:d9e2:b01b:8a74:17d0. (There has been a helpful anon editing as well, so I feel bad for requesting protection.)

NATO phonetic alphabet

EC Protection: This page experiences a steady stream of new editors who "correct" the two words in the NATO phonetic alphabet that are purposely misspelled. I have seen examples on the web of people quoting Wikipedia during the time between the "correction" and someone noticing and putting it right.
Fun fact #1: Alfa is used instead of Alpha to avoid some non-English speakers pronouncing it "alp-hah", and Juliett is used instead of Juliet to avoid some non-English speakers pronouncing it "joo-lee-ay".
Fun fact #2: Lists of the NATO phonetic alphabet words started getting Alfa and Juliett wrong right around the time that spellcheckers became widely used, and many non-NATO sources either contain these errors or incorrectly claim that either Alfa or Alpha is acceptable.

Declined User talk pages are rarely protected, and are semi-protected for short durations only in the most severe cases of vandalism from IP users: there is no vandalism. A user's request to have his or her own talk page protected is not a sufficient rationale by itself to protect the page, although requests may be considered if a reason is provided: citing "safety reasons" is too vague.

Temporary full-protection: High level of vandalism. Three accounts (two IPs and one new user, all of which I strongly suspect are sockpuppets of each other) are repeatedly removing long-standing, reliably sourced content using deceptive edit summaries (falsely claiming reliable sources as outdated or opinion sources), and then inserting unsourced content as a replacement.

The accounts in question are:

All three articles (but primarily the first two) are targets here and should be fully protected for a short period to stop the vandalism attempts. I’ve had to revert at least three vandalism attempts on those two pages in just the past day. Toa Nidhiki05 13:22, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

  • I just looked at the edit history of this article. It took a mere 26 minutes from article creation for it to be semi-protected - after just one instance of mild vandalism. The article is fast moving, and is liable to attract new users; a good thing. There was, and is, no justification for the initial SP, let alone further draconian protection.

@IanDBeacon: Ach, that is a good question. We can hope the SP stops the new ones and that a SPI reveals any sleepers. The problem is always the risk of preventing constructive edits and and the question of cost/benefit. I would be inclined to run a CU, but I lack experience and am not trusted w/ that tool. DlohCierekim 18:36, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
@Ferret: Courtesy pinging ferret, the last protecting admin. I'd be disinclined to apply ECP to the page. I think it'd be too heavy-handed (so the costs would outweigh the benefits here). Furthermore, the sock seems to have attacked multiple pages, so ECP won't necessarily be effective in preventing overall abuse from the sock. Airplaneman ✈ 18:49, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
Disinclined to ECP. MRY is sporatic and months between, sometimes more frequent, best to revert block deny. ECP will end up being a permanent thing on MRY targetted articles if we let him dictate our response.

Template:Medical citation needed span

Indefinite template protection: High-risk template – This request is intended to preempt vandalism to this citation template. {{Medical citation needed span}} was created today, so it has very few transclusions at the moment, but its non-medical and non-span analogs, {{Citation needed span}} and {{Medical citation needed}}, are permanently template protected. Hence, I'm requesting permanent template protection on these ground.

I realize some admins might be hesitant to set such a strict protection level for a new template with a low transclusion count; so, as a minimal alternative, I'd request permanent semi-protection of this template; ideally though, I think it should be permanently template protected.

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. El_C 12:49, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
@El C: please could you undo this protection? There has been vandalism, but it's being dealt with immediately, and the IP editors have in general been helpful, it's a good chance to maybe get some more editors involved, who might actually join the project if we're lucky. It was decided last night to remove the protection on this and it's been OK so far. Thanks  — Amakuru (talk) 13:13, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Note: I concur, and I'll repeat what I said when I denied the protection on Notre Dame: this is an ongoing thing, and it is well watched by many eyes at the moment and well under control; despite some disruption, the by far bigger part of IP edits are constructive. Lectonar (talk) 13:25, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Sure, I'm open to giving this another chance, but if these sort of short succession of vandalism edits continue, the article may get protected again. El_C 13:38, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
@Ritchie333: Should the fourth of those diffs you provided be rev deleted?

While this might be a chance for some people to make their first edits, it is worth considering whether the noise is louder than the signal. I would prefer not to see Wikipedia used to spout conspiracy theories (especially ones based on bigotry) however briefly. Richard Nevell (talk) 14:01, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
I've revdeled the edit in question. Regarding the other issue, is it worth considering Pending-Changes protection rather than semi? That way the general public don't get to see the offensive crap, but new editors may feel there's a way in...  — Amakuru (talk) 14:21, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Sounds reasonable to me. Richard Nevell (talk) 14:25, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Pending changes on an article which is heavily edited creates problems. Lectonar (talk) 14:27, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Alright. Fair enough. Some things are just too good to be true.  — Amakuru (talk) 14:31, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
  • @Amakuru: The article is being barraged with conspiracy theories, nonsense, and vandalism. Please consider semi-protection for at least a day or two.- MrX 🖋 23:22, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

I'm here. I dropped a note at Talk:Notre-Dame_de_Paris_fire#Discussion_at_RFPP to get some wider feedback. El_C 00:19, 17 April 2019 (UTC)

50–40–90 club

Pending changes protection: This article rarely requires edits. Productive edits are typically only once a year at the end of the NBA regular season, because that’s when new players qualify for the club, and even then in some years there are no players who qualify. There have been many IP edits lately, some vandalism, and some reverting the vandalism, but none have been adding any useful content. I think pending changes protection would be a good compromise by virtue of not laying down a blanket ruling on the well-intentioned IPs. Mrbeastmodeallday (talk) 05:33, 18 April 2019 (UTC)

No, Samsara, this is a case of block evasion by Loseraspie and Anonomys7, who has recently been using the IP 108.249.20.17, and previously using 108.249.22.222 since 2013. Currently the range Special:Contributions/2600:1702:20E0:D3B0:0:0:0:0/64 is being used, and previously the range Special:Contributions/2602:306:CF91:4110:0:0:0:0/64. Some of the edits that this person makes are okay but many are problematic. The person is an obsessed fan of various actresses and singers, and was blocked for not responding to any talk page requests to modify behavior. I'm requesting protection of 3LW from this LTA person.

Semi-protection: Every once in a while a new boss comes to town. This one wants remove almost all content wherever they see a cn tag. Also Leathercoated Minds. SlightSmile 17:46, 20 April 2019 (UTC)

I'm inclined to side with Slightsmile here as the reason the IP is removing the content is not that he's disputing it, but rather, that he's opposed to it not having a source. To my mind, that's not a sound reason to remove (except on BLPs, which this isn't). Samsara 19:43, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
It's still going on and I don't have time for it. Are you going to help with this? SlightSmile 11:39, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
Follow up. There's an edit war in full swing. I can't believe you allow this combative behaviour. If you don't want to touch this just say so. I'll tell him or her to do they what and take a vacation. SlightSmile 14:52, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
Note that the cn tag has been up for 27 months and no one has made any effort to source. Every once in a while someone names himself as wiki-czar; Slightsmile is a full participant in this edit war. 75.191.40.148 (talk) 14:59, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
It would be great if the editors who keep restoring the unsourced content would add an inline source or bring their concerns to Talk, where the IP has been trying to discuss the lack of sources. Protection isn't a runaround to get your way while refusing to discuss the issue. Woodroar (talk) 16:06, 21 April 2019 (UTC) Striking this since one editor has just reverted and another is now at Talk. Woodroar (talk) 16:09, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
@Woodroar: The other editor who restored the unsourced content reverted his edit. Slightsmile promptly restored it again, unsourced. 75.191.40.148 (talk) 16:25, 21 April 2019 (UTC)

Alligator gar

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP keeps reverting to add improper grammar. Atsme Talk 📧 00:25, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

Comment. In this case I have to say that agree with at least some of what the IP has posted. For instance, one of the sentences under discussion presently reads as follows:
Anecdotal evidence in several scientific reports suggest that an alligator gar can grow up to 10 ft (3.0 m) in length.
This is incorrect. The subject of the sentence is evidence, evidence is always singular, therefore the sentence should be:
Evidence[singular subject] suggests[singular verb] (not the present "Evidence [singular subject] suggest [plural verb]", see University of Sydney blog here and Wiktionary "uncountable" nouns & Wiktionary 'uncountable' definition.
There might be more issues that are grammatical in nature but this case of subject/verb agreement is simply the first one I came across... Shearonink (talk) 00:44, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

Vaporwave

Indefinite extended confirmed: Persistent disruptive editing – As seen in the past few months, Vaporwave's wiki page has been edited to include unsourced, poorly sourced, or generally disruptive editing that may or may not be seen as vandalism. A large amount of these edits are by IP addresses, users with only a few edits, and generally not by extended confirmed users. Protecting the page so only extended confirmed users can edit would significantly reduce the amount of unhelpful, unconstructive and poorly done edits that would most likely be reverted anyway, essentially wasting the time of users who revert such edits.

The Time (Bros album)

Semi-protection: Multiple edits by new editors and IPs, all of whom are almost certainly the long-term sockpuppet TomWatkins1970 (currently under investigation at WP:SPI). Other Bros-related articles have been placed under long-term protection thanks to this editor's persistent socking and adding of unsourced material. Adding of material from uploaded magazine scans without attribution, similar to previous socks [53], and from a newly-created Bros fansite (probably set up by the editor as well) which fails WP:RS as an independent source [54], [55] and making unsubstantiated allegations of other editors using blogs as sources [56], [57], in order to justify their own edits using non-reliable sources. Update: sockpuppet investigation has confirmed the above accounts as socks of each other [58]. Richard3120 (talk) 12:51, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

@Dlohcierekim: it's unlikely to stop it, because past behaviour of this editor indicates that they will simply create a new batch of socks (they already have around 60 blocked sock accounts on English Wikipedia, plus 15 more at Commons) and/or edit via IP addresses, and the disruption will continue. However, we will see what happens. Richard3120 (talk) 15:54, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

Thank you Dlohcierekim – various editors have tried to explain in the past to this person that you can't just upload scanned images to Commons or Flickr and link to them as sources, and various other violations of WP:RS, but this editor is either unable or unwilling to listen, and prefers to make false allegations against the editors who attempt to correct them or politely point out their errors. They are absolutely obsessed with editing Bros articles to reflect what they believe is the truth, so I fully expect them now to turn their attention to other articles related to the group, or waiting a year for this protection to expire and then start editing the very same day... they really are that obsessive.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Since early last year the season 7 article has been the subject of vandalism by an IP hopping anonymous editor who selectively removes content concerning Sue Heck, a character in the series. This includes the characters name as well as plot information concerning her. I try to keep up but I have missed some stuff so semi-protection seems warranted. For some reason the editor also vandalises The Middle (season 8) and The Middle (season 8) but not (at this point) the earlier seasons so I request protection of those as well. .

@Dlohcierekim:

Please take a look a his contributions here compared to ones that are actually sockpuppets of McAusten. Also there is no mention of him anywhere on this page here. Also Callanecc calims that Pacific Rim Defender, PizzaPizza3289, LordoftheRingsFAN73 and MatrixReloaded23890 are McAusten's sockpuppets however the {{checkedsockpuppet|McAusten}} signs has be removed from their respective userpages and have no be reinstated since. Although there is no evidence in their contributions nor any mention on the McAusten sockpuppet archive page, they are still block as McAusten's sockpuppet by Callanecc. Therefore may you please remove the protection on Century Plant Guy as this sign {{checkedsockpuppet|McAusten}} needs to be removed form his userpage. I will thank you of your time once the page has been unprotected. 104.247.208.167 (talk) 00:50, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed: Arbitration enforcement – Apparently whether or not to call this the Israeli or Palestinian yellow scorpion is a controversial topic.

Scott Burley normally AE ECP is indefinite, though I get this is an odd case. I still think it’d be ideal here as we’ve had IPs and auto confirmed accounts changing it since at least July, but I’m also fine with whatever you decide. Just raising it since indef is pretty standard for ARBPIA. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:05, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
@TonyBallioni: Yes, I was hoping this was tangential enough to the topic that a month would be enough for the involved parties to forget and move on. Missed your note that this has been going on since last year. I'll up it to indefinite. -- Scott Burley (talk) 21:12, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

Temporary pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – This controversial term was very recently spun out into its own page, and has been attracting disruptive edits from ips pushing POVs or trying to RIGHTGREATWRONGS. I am requesting pending changes rather than page protection because other IP editors have been contributing positively. gnu57 16:14, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for placing this request here (following the concern raised moments ago on the article talk page). I don't know how much difference the following detail makes, but to clarify: All recent edits to the article from IPs have been disruptive. The one IP who hasn't been disruptive has edited the talk page only thus far. A145GI15I95 (talk) 17:19, 29 April 2019 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Sorry if this excludes constructive IPs, but the article is much too heavily edited for PC to work well. I gave it just a week of semi-protection because the article is too new to be able to tell if longer term protection will be needed or not. MelanieN (talk) 17:56, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

Notre-Dame de Paris (yes, again)

Permanent semi-protection: I requested Permanent Semi-Prot. about a week ago due to a high volume of IP vandalization. Temporary was granted on the grounds that the cathedral would receive less attention when it faded out of the news, which seems to have been the case for the article about the fire itself. Not so for the cathedral. Yet again Our Lady is plagued by no-name IPs cutting content or adding nonsense for kicks. I therefore and again motion for permanent semi-protection to check the vandalism at the door and prevent IPs from again and again spitting in our fondue. –♠Vami_IV†♠ 14:58, 29 April 2019 (UTC)

(petty excuse for not having to use reliable information) "very useful, even if! not 100% accurate" (weights usefulness of an information higher than the actual truth of that information) "I really hope you're getting paid well to do this." (personal attack, false claims). I am currently trying to keep the article clean but I am not sure how long this can go on. I would appreciate to just lock the article so that the version history doesn't get filled with all those vandalism edits over and over. It is clear vandalism in my opinion if someone does something that is against the rules and he or she even knows that. TheRandomIP (talk) 17:51, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Unfortunately as one of the parties looks to be an IP-hopper the edit-warring noticeboard is of little use here. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Bori! 07:40, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.. Sorry if I stepped on any of your toes here, Lectonar, but the ongoing back-and-fourth reverting that's been going on over the last week and by users of various levels shows to me that full protection is necessary here. As indicated above, I think that the IP users (and possibly a number of accounts here) that have been causing the disruption may be operated by the same user, and filing a discussion at AN3 is necessary in addition to applying protection in order to put a stop to further edit warring and disruption, and nudge all users involved to discuss the disputes properly and appropriately on the article's talk page. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:04, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

User talk:Flooded with them hundreds

Temporary semi-protection: Inappropriate use of user talk page while blocked – Trolling / gravedancing from an IP. Includes bizarre allegations linking FWTH to the Orangemoody case. In any case, there's no reason for anons to be editing that page. ——SerialNumber54129 10:20, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Blatant unsupported allegations. Calling me a troll. I was not blocked in the past, though. And there is insufficient evidence to connect me to anyone. I'm not linking anyone, User:NinjaRobotPirate an administrator and a "checkuser" blocked User:SquishyLad as a sock, suggest you retract some of your bizarre claims as it's clearly inappropriately presented for an "experienced user". -|--|-[[[Special:Contributions/110.224.41.250|110.224.41.250]] (talk) 10:23, 30 April 2019 (UTC)]
Let's decipher your claims, since you are in "bull rage" mode to have others blocked. Well, the page is no need for protection, per policy, we can of course questions others' ethics while Violation of its policies are considered. In their purview if we drop out Wp:sock and let they continue desires of continuations in accounts, so no, noting a incident that happened should be considered. We aren't spies to look off of their contributions still reconsidering a "false imapct" left by them, Evasion still applies whether good/bad. Got it how Wikipedia community is towards new/old users. -|--|-[[[Special:Contributions/110.224.41.250|110.224.41.250]] (talk) 10:30, 30 April 2019 (UTC)]
@patrolling admin. I think this rather proves my point. The IP is on some kind of crusade to show the world what FWTH really is; I think we already know, and there's certainly no need for the persistent trolling of the talk page. ——SerialNumber54129 10:41, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
@patrolling admin/editor. This proves my point why he wrongly asserted "my legal threats". Trolling is definitive, though, he hasn't clarified on what part it consisted trolling. Instead picked some overtly confusing words ("gravedancing") for a reason to revert talk page comments. Read Wp:Agf. -|--|-[[[Special:Contributions/110.224.41.250|110.224.41.250]] (talk) 10:47, 30 April 2019 (UTC)]

(edit conflict) :Note: i won't store/restore the revision preemptively reverted by a Wp:Sock

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SquishyLad&diff=894838853&oldid=894838706, denying recognition applied to the sock, irony suggests a former taste to revert back to desired versions. Since Wp:Talk page guidelines allows them to remove comments, so I can't bug further so as to escape the narrow definition of "disruptive editing". Also, open an Spi against me if you're that sure and suspicious. It constitutes personal attacks, whether you like it or not. -|--|-[[[Special:Contributions/110.224.41.250|110.224.41.250]] (talk) 10:53, 30 April 2019 (UTC)]
