Uyghurs

Temporary semi-protection: There has been IP disruption associated with the Uyghur genocide, which is under WP:GS/UYGHUR. In a series of six edits that I've reverted, an IP appears to have engaged in POV-pushing. There's also been IP-related stuff with the lead (June 27, 29) that seems to have attempted to insert POV and edit against revisions discussed on the talk page. I think that some sort of semi-protection under GS:UYGHUR would be justified to protect the page from disruption. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 22:15, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Permanent semi-protection: Constant, persistent, chronic, massive and incorrigible vandalism going on for years. This includes long-term sock puppetry (especially by the 2a02:*** IP hopper), gaming the system, constantly changing his nationality despite the clear warning that it cannot be changed without discussion, ignoring the clear rules on this and the officially reached consensus, persistently adding wrong information (like repeatedly changing his correct birthplace to the wrong one), and many other disruptive edits by clueless IP editors. The pending changes protection is desperately insufficient, editors constantly have to keep reverting the malicious edits. This page obviously needs permanent semi-protection. This is not a temporary problem and it will not go away after a week, month or a year.—J. M. (talk) 17:50, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi DaxServer, thank you for creating the investigation. The sockpuppetry concern lacked evidence and was thus declined at SPI; a protection request based purely on the same concern without additional evidence can only be declined as well. The edits have not been reverted, so the content itself does not seem to have been problematic enough to justify protection either. Possible next steps could be opening a SPI with more specific evidence, or requesting protection in a way that focuses on problematic content. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 18:59, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

Template:Piper Kerr Photo

Requesting permanent semi-protection. This caption is very heavily vandalized and often appears in memes - to the effect of “Kerr (right) with a penguin”. A bit funny but that’s not WP’s purpose.

I previously did this at Kettle War with good results. ‡ El cid, el campeador talk 04:33, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

There are two different IPs that are widely separated geographically and by domain. In this case, page protection would seem the more effective choice. Dhtwiki (talk) 06:20, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
Despite geographically different, it looks like the IP range above is already blocked by Ohnoitsjamie. See on the IP range page (92.40.190.0/23) and (2.30.231.143). I think combined temporary semi-protection and blocking the user would be better. 180.243.211.196 (talk) 07:27, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. That vandal is targeting more than just Brioche ([1], though that seems to be a favorite target. A 3 month ec will allow us to catch any more IPs or ranges should they arise.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael J Coudrey

Temporary semi-protection: I am having an issue on a deletion discussion page that was for an article I created. Discussion has been active for 3-4 weeks with fruitful conversation, but as of last night there are a number of new users voting to keep the article, possibly in a potential attempt to manipulate the conversation. I am wondering if this can be also added to a deletion discussion page? JalenPhotos2 (talk) 16:25, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes: This article has been plagued by various types of vandalism and other disruptive edits, unsourced additions, BLP policy violations, and others since its creation, due to the fact that the subject is a high-profile media presence. Because this is placing an undue burden on editors to patrol and revert edits on this page, I believe that it is time to impose a higher level of page protection for an indefinite time, or until the media attention dies down and the disruption ceases.

Temporary pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – IP editors trying repeatedly to change a surname page into a family history of a particular family by that name. (Also one registered editor, under two account names, getting involved, but that has been addressed separately on user talk pages.). DoubleGrazing (talk) 05:47, 6 July 2021 (UTC)

Note: One disruptive edit in the last month does not justify protection. As it appears all of the disruptive edits are one user, consider reporting to WP:AN/EW. - Adolphus79 (talk) 05:59, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
Granted, the disruption is infrequent, but has been going on for some time. And while one editor has contributed under two user names and one IP, another IP may or may not be the same person (does admittedly geolocate to the same part of Australia). However, now a new UK-based IP has joined in, hence I'm not sure if it's just one person behind it all. Anyway, if this isn't enough to justify protection, I'll just keep it on my watchlist. Cheers, --DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:15, 6 July 2021 (UTC)

Declined While this weapon may have been designed in Isreal and used in the Arab-Israeli conflict, it is also a common weapon used throughout the world and is not exclusive to this conflict. I think it strains credulity to assume that this weapon falls under arbitration enforcement for the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Arooj Aftab

Hi, this article title is create protected. As an AfC reviewer I would like to accept draft:Arooj Aftab, but can't until this protection is lifted. The protecting administrator (User:Jarry1250) no longer seems to be active. This article was created and deleted three times, hence the protection. However, that was 14 years ago when the artist was only 22. Now she is 36, with a vastly more significant career. There are still some problems with the draft, but I think in principle the article should be accepted, and would be grateful if somebody can open the door to that. --Doric Loon (talk) 20:36, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

I would suggest that you need to wait for AfC to accept the article, and the accepting admin would then be able to un-salt the title during creation. It may be a little premature to un-protect the title if the article has not yet been reviewed/accepted. - Adolphus79 (talk) 23:16, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
Unprotected. Doric Loon, I still don't understand how the mainspace salting prevented you from approving the draft. Also, the Press section should be expunged (and/or its sources integrated into the page otherwise). El_C 02:13, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
El_C, many thanks. The reason I needed it unsalted is quite simple - accepting an AfC involves moving the draft article to mainspace, and if that title in mainspace is create-protected, the AfC software throws up a block. Yes, the Press section is the thing I still want dealt with.
Adolphus79, the point is, I myself am the accepting reviewer. Not all AfC reviewers are admins, so so we need help if there's this kind of complication - same if a redirect needs deleted or whatever. --Doric Loon (talk) 08:51, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Pending changes protection This is a heavily sensitive page (heavy internet harassment), the French version has recurrent vandalism (and is semi-protected) and the English page was just created.

~ ToBeFree : Hello, there were insults on the French page on 9 July and probably before, like all over social media. I won't necessarily look at the page the whole summer. This girl received enough of them to have new insults on this page which is about her life really. This is a clear WP:IAR case, don't you think? Or better: there should be a way to erase them from history if they occur, but I am not sure if there can be such a thing. --Fiorala (talk) 23:02, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

Hmm, I just semi-protected the following for one year per requests above: Template:COVID-19 pandemic data/Charts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia and Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Germany. They are the same as here, namely frequent IP edits where the IPs are blocked with a claim of socking of an identified indeffed user. Normally I would have queried the protection requests as I don't see where the IP edits are reverted or discussed, but in my mind WP:COVIDDS and the frequency of the edits makes a sufficient case for protection. Perhaps the more fundamental question should be asked: @Flix11: Are the IP edits wrong or is this a case of WP:DENY? Are the edits discussed anywhere? Johnuniq (talk) 01:44, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

Although, @Robert McClenon: I have a slight misgiving about create-protecting this draft. The main-space title is already protected, so the sockpuppets have to go to draft space. Allowing it to be created in draft space is like using honey to catch flies. The socks reveal themselves and they can be blocked.

Indefinite Semi-protection - As I use this page primarily when helping new users on Wikipedia's helpdesks and #wikipedia-en-help and point said users to it, I want the page semiprotected so that a user doesn't get confused (or "get confused" - helpees get belligerent sometimes) and wreck it. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 09:26, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. WP:PROTECT is quite ambivalent about this, but ultimately, I find this request fails the "good reason or cause" by being against the wiki spirit. Because why shouldn't an unconfirmed user not be allowed to, say, fix a typo? There's an assumption of inevitable disruption, but maybe you have a gentle enough touch so that it actually never ends up happening. Wouldn't that be cool! El_C 11:03, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

@Flix11: You and other people have labelled my editing on COVID-19 statistics, which is based on government sources, as "disruptive editing" with the purpose of vandalising the page, when in fact is quite the opposite. I do not mind to also edit the recoveries chart of Statistics of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) or leaving all the editing to you; however, keep in mind anyone can edit any page as long as it is based on a reliable sources and no one is the owner of any page.

Temporary semi-protection: Inappropriate use of user talk page while blocked – The user is making personal attacks while being blocked. FilmandTVFan28 (talk) 18:32, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Note: IP in question has left a note on their talk page apologizing for the recent disruptive edits, it appears they have stopped for now. Does not justify protecting the talk page. If personal attacks continue in the future during the block, contact the blocking admin and request that the IP lose talk page rights instead of protecting the page. - Adolphus79 (talk) 04:49, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protection: This page has been protected five times in the last three years and just came off extended confirmed protection. Since then, it's been hit by vandals nearly a dozen times. The subject of the page, through his large Twitter following, has been off-Wiki canvassing his followers to blank the page (in addition to making increasingly outrageous off-Wiki legal threats to pursue civil and criminal [!] action against WP editors) and calling for a "war of attrition" on the article [8].

Some users are apparently not even checking the talk page before changing the disputed content. ––FORMALDUDE(talk) 07:05, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Note: This is a content dispute because it mainly involved extended confirmed user, so having an ECP cannot resolve the problem. I suggest the page to temporary full protected or taking dispute resolution on talk page. 110.137.124.134 (talk) 07:10, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
Good point. ––FORMALDUDE(talk) 07:13, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
Fully protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This is probably one of those rare instances when full protection is warranted due to the reasons explained above. The problem, of course, is that this is a very extreme restriction that can't reasonably (at least in this case) be applied for more than 48 hours or so and I'm not sure that this is going to resolve the problem since, as FormalDude notes, the issue appears to be drive-by editing with no one actually checking the Talk page. But we have a limited set of tools available, and so will have to make due with what we have and hope for the best. Chetsford (talk) 08:54, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

@Chess:, good idea Oasis goy | Bruh 00:09, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
It actually isn't a good idea. Look for time periods when unconfirmed users were able to edit. Throughout those times, the page is edited very actively (much of it school-related, I'd estimate), so pc wouldn't be effective. You'd be chasing revision confirmations each day every day. Anyway, this is a bizarre request. To call the 30th president of the United States "barely notable" — I... have no words. Also, if there isn't "much vandalism" wouldn't that mean the semiprotection is working? Declined from me, as well. El_C 02:03, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – While it is a talk page, this one has a long history of being edited by IPs and accounts with next to no history in an effort to push an agenda: they feel the name should be something else (though they never can agree on the spelling).

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – For obvious reasons, almost every edit to this page has been vandalism. The only edits that were not vandalism were those of the users reverting it. I'm asking for indefinite protection because this page has already been protected three times in the past, but that was not enough to put an end to the vandalism. Helen(💬📖) 22:51, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Rap music has the letter C missing from the front. Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – I'm requesting downgrading to pending changes protection due to the relative lack of editing on the page. I've tried to discuss with the protecting admin User:Beetstra on the talk page about getting the protection downgraded and they are refusing due to the lack of productive editing. I believe this was an incorrect decision given that pending changes was specifically created for pages that don't have frequent productive edits. Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 21:58, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Chess, that is a misinterpretation of what I said. I said that ALL edits by new accounts and IPs need to be reverted. With pending changes we still need to revert those. Pending changes is not going to help there anything. We have in 6 months no constructive edits by new editors or IPs that we, maybe, want to approve. Pending changes then just gives you the same amount of work as not having protection would give you without any benefit. Show me a significant number of edits by an IP or new editor that we possibly would have allowed and I will happily put pending changes. Dirk Beetstra T C 13:17, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
Note: Personally, I see no reason to downgrade the protection of this page. It appears that there was considerable persistent disruption leading up to the August 2020 protection, and immediately upon it's one year expiration disruptive editing commenced. If they were that quick to jump on it after a year of protection, what signs do we have that this time will be different? - Adolphus79 (talk) 03:11, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
Not asking for full unprotection, just a downgrade to pending changes. Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 06:15, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
Why? Simply to require someone to start watching it/put in more effort reverting all of the said disruptive edits again? - Adolphus79 (talk) 12:46, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Official status of Romanian language in Vojvodina

Nothing: This page was protected from being moved in 2007 by user Duja, who has not edited since 2008 and was de-sysopped in 2011 due to inactivity. It was blocked because of a dispute between two editors, Danutz and PANONIAN, both also inactive, so there's no point on keeping the move protection and there's not really a reason to keep any kind of protection on the page. By the way, the reason why I am requesting this is because I want to move the page to Romanian language in Vojvodina, which is more consistent with articles like English language in England or Spanish language in the Philippines.

Zeeshan Khan

Temporary pending changes: This page was fully protected for 6 months back in March by User:Deb, then had pending changes enabled. Deb didn't remove the original full protection though, so the page is currently only editable by admins. I didn't understand why this was, so I asked Deb about it and they confirmed it was fully intentional. [24] I don't understand how this is in line with the protection policy. Six months full protection for a page that was only disruptively edited by non autoconfirmed users for a brief period seems rather harsh. Unless there's some context here that I'm not seeing I'd like to see a downgrade to some kind of temporary pending changes protection given the non-confirmed status of the people disruptively editing and the lack of long term disruption on the page. Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 06:13, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Chess - Aside from the fact that this page is for requesting page protection, not for removing page protection, I have tried to explain to you that the short-term full protection was to deter the many COI editors who have attempted to use the disambiguation page as a way round the block on creating new pages for a little-known person of the same name, whereas the partial protection is to deter the same activity in the long term. See the article history and you'll find that the "lack of long term disruption" amounts to:
3 edits during the first week of February by the same anon IP
Another edit the same week by another anon IP
A further edit during the second week of February by a different anon IP
Another edit the following week by the sockpuppet User:Zkhanzxx
Another the following day by the sockpuppet User:Zeshan Khan (actor)
Two edits the following week by the blocked User:Asdadaz
This is aside from the multitude of attempts to add the other person of this name under various different article titles and alternative spellings. Such persistence leads me to suppose that the socks are likely to return as soon as protection is lifted, hence I have left the long-term protection in place. Disambiguation pages rarely require editing, and any attempt to do so should arouse suspicion, so I would prefer to leave this in place rather than have to keep checking back on the article. Deb (talk) 12:23, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
None of those edits would've been prevented by full protection that wouldn't have been prevented by semi-protection alone. I get that you explained your position to me, that's why I'm here. I believe you're wrong. Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 13:28, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
Note: Deb, we're in #Current requests for reduction in protection level right now! Also, 6 month full is kinda nuts. Why didn't you go with WP:ECP? I don't understand. And there is zero utility in having pc enabled for a fully-protected page (us admins only). Suggest amending with a downgrade to ECP —you don't have to go all the way down to semi right away, not to mention pc— and reset the pc, because this is all just well outside convention (though nothing I'd call egregious, I'll stress). El_C 13:10, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
El_C, Whilst I respect your view, the argument that my action is "kinda nuts" is unconvincing. You must have had experience of dealing with that many socks and this kind of promotional campaign, but perhaps not in this situation - how often does a disambiguation page need protection at all? You say "there is zero utility in having pc enabled for a fully-protected page" - that's true until the point where the full protection expires, at which point the article is completely unprotected again. User:Chess says "None of those edits would've been prevented by full protection that wouldn't have been prevented by semi-protection alone." Of course they would. Pending protection doesn't prevent edits, it just means additional time wasted on checking each one. Semi-protection means that would-be vandals just have to work up to a certain number of edits undetected in order to achieve a level that allows them to edit freely. (I've been caught out with this one before.) If you want to change the protection level, you have the power to do it, but it does surprise me that those with no apparent desire to edit an article or even any suggestions for improvement should feel it is so important to reduce the protection level. Deb (talk) 14:09, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
Ah, pc for later, gotcha. But the crux of the matter is why full in the first place? Why not ECP? Is there a single ec rights user that presented a problem? I rarely see WP:500-30 abuse (though as it happens, I did make 2 such revocations over the last month), and when I do, they are usually easy enough to spot. El_C 14:17, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
@El C: Deb did remove some extended confirmed permissions at around that time. [25] Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 22:46, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
Chess, these revocations appear unrelated to this DAB page (unless I missed it). El_C 23:16, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
I can't see any deleted contributions so I wouldn't know. They appeared to be around the time Deb salted some related deleted pages so I was wondering. Chess (talk) (please use {{reply to|Chess}} on reply) 23:28, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
Deb, maybe I should add that, in practice, I don't think anything would be different for this DAB page if it was at ECP rather than full, but I'm just pointing out to you that the mechanics of setting it up like that (full vs ECP) are odd and out of step with convention.

Willie Marcial

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. Involves unregistered users adding content regarding to Alfrancis Chua due to the bias of San Miguel Corporation-teams (San Miguel Beermen, Barangay Ginebra San Miguel and Magnolia Hotshots) winning various championships in previous seasons, calling various names including "rectum and scrotum" (See this revision), "a puppy of Alfrancis Chua" (See this revision), calling the league "League of Alfrancis Chua" (See this revision), which is called by some fans and even changing the persons involved who appointed him in becoming a commissioner a "Cooking Show board" (See this revision), even changing the section to "Cooking Show career" (See this revision). Vandalism of this person began at the start of the 2021 PBA season, which was this Friday. I may suggest a protection of "review for unregistered users and new users" or an "extended confirmed protection" for at least a month to avoid persistent vandalism.

2021 Maricopa County presidential ballot audit

Reason: The protection is not longer necessary because it was written on sporadic dates and quotes only left biased articles and uses biased language. Further, initial results of the audit show extremely interesting results. Additionally, criticism of the audit is based on opinions as opposed to actual forensic science and examination of paper, which is used daily by law enforcement and intelligence agencies around the world. No paper forensic experts are noted as references or in any of the articles used as references for this entry. The protection status should be lifted so actual results and actual forensic evidence can be added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vabelle2010 (talk • contribs)

Wikipedia:RedWarn/Install/2

Reason: These pages are used to show people how to install RedWarn, an anti-vandalism tool. Currently, any user could edit these pages to contain instructions on installing a lusc (loader) to malicious code, and anyone - even admins - that followed the (malicious) instructions to install RedWarn would have their account compromised. I recommend full-protection on all of these pages considering the seriousness of this. –Gladamas (talk · contribs) 18:49, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

Note: leaning toward declining this preemptive request, but wouldn't mind a second opinion. As well, I sort of doubt there's an admin who has RedWarn installed, though I suppose that's of little import. El_C 04:28, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Al-Lat

Temporary semi-protection: High level of vandalism from IP's and new users, some likely sockpuppets of others. Article is about a pre-Islamic goddess worshiped in Arabia; same edits and similar edits keep appearing under different names/IP's. Edits all claim that the subject wasn't a goddess, but a demon, wasn't connected with Allah, but with Satan, or generally change her name or delete discussions of her worship and mythology, apparently because the editors feel that the article defames God by not condemning the subject as lies and falsehood.

Ben & Jerry's

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Arbitration enforcement for Israel/Palestine related articles. Today, Ben & Jerry’s announced that they are halting sales in the occupied territories (to my knowledge they’re the most prominent company to openly criticize Israel). This page is seeing *tons* of vandalism today. This will never end if it’s not protected. Blade Jogger 2049 Talk 20:24, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Note: As far as i concerned, just as the Ben and Jerry's has ben withdraw from the Palestinian territories doesn't mean that it become involved in Israeli-Palestinian conflict, even it is openly criticized Israel. In my opinion, ECP cannot be justified as there have very strict criteria whether the article is considered part of Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In this case, at least semi-protection would be necessary as it is global brand that has been involved in many controversies worldwide. Any admin can disregard my comment. 180.241.209.217 (talk) 21:38, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Abdul Rashid Dostum

Reason: Recent edits show a large number of IPs and new users who make often questionable changes. The article in question is about a highly controversial figure, and it is not a surprise that this breeds vandalism. This recent edit removed all the information about the person's accusations for war crimes (I restored it today). It was done last year as well before being restored. The other big issue is that there is little checking and patrolling of this article by admins/"good" users... I can see in the history that many editors are IPs or new/inexperienced users of which several don't make constructive changes or change information. So not only is the topic controversial but it is also not very controlled, that is a bad recipe. To top it all off: the person in question of this article is very controversial, so it is only wise that for the long-term this article must remain protected, not just temporarily.

@El C: Thanks, I think this is much better than nothing and at least a step for control. Is it also possible to do Pending-Changes for the article Gulbuddin Hekmatyar? It is similarly a highly controversial topic and often unregistered/new users make non-constructive changes.

Template:Rfc

Indefinite semi-protection: This is not a highly used template (with only 71 transclusions). This would mainly be a medium risk template; as it is crucial to the RFC process. Because of this, I'd suggest dropping the protection to either semi protection or extended confirmed protection. Aasim (talk) 23:10, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi Aasim, please ask the protecting administrator first – I have done so now. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 11:04, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
  • The comparatively low transclusion count is due to the fact that the template is removed when the discussion is closed. As RfCs come and go, a lot of articles will transclude the template, if only for a month(ish). For that reason, I'm disinclined to lower the protection level. Favonian (talk) 15:31, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. This template is not "content" based and would only require rare, rather esoteric, updates - combined with the sporadic visibility bursts mentioned by Favonian, TPROT appears to be appropriate still. — xaosflux Talk 14:22, 21 July 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protection. This is a bizarre one. For twelve years, since this 2009 edit, one or perhaps more IP editors have sought to have included in the article on a fairly obscure Welsh village, a mention of a purported controversy involving the singer Elvis Costello. As well as being defamatory and contrary to WP:BLP, the text is largely unsourced, and pretty trivial. However, every so often the IP(s) reappear, to re-insert the same piece of text. They have now re-emerged. Ghmyrtle (talk) 15:00, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Borders of India

Reason: High level of vandalism. Weaveravel (talk) 18:05, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

The borders of India is a highly sensitive topic in the political world and it comes as no surprise that this article very regularly gets vandalised/rapidly changed. People have different views and opinions on the matter and therefore a lot of changes get made that aren't constructive but are there just to feed their political view. Notice the amount of IPs and new users that tend to edit this. Borders of India must be protected for the long-term because of the controversial/sensitive topic dating back decades (I would strongly prefer Pending Changes protection, so an admin can always keep watch and accept constructive edits).

Wikipedia i would like if you protect the page of the country of Ethiopia. Ethiopia is a country in the horn of africa. It has a population of 118 million people. It is the only country in Africa to not be colonized. It has history stretching back to the ear of Moses 2000 B.C. It has kingdoms like Axum the Ethiopian Empire. It is has the fifth largest economy in Africa. It has the African Unions seat. It is the source of over 70% of the Nile. The blue Nile originates in Ethiopia. It is mentioned in Christianity Judaism and Islam. Because of being this much important i feel as Ethiopia needs to be protected from any type of vandalism. Thank you.

Thank you MelanieN - Would you please notice also that IP 213.81.182.119 is located in Slovakia, reverting[42] with an edit summary: I have the same rights as you to comment. Then the same person appears 15 minutes later in Israel under IP 194.90.89.69 reverting the same content[43] with identical edit summary: I have the same rights as you. You are allowed to admire your hero. Please notice the Slovakia IP 213.81.182.119 with the equal comment above: ..Staan is attempting to sandblast all scandals from his political hero.. The above indicates it is the same person using a third-party service to generate multiple IPs. Would you mind doing something about these IP's or should this be filed at SPI? - GizzyCatBella🍁 22:04, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

File it at SPI, if you have any idea who the master is. If all you have is IPs and no associated registered user, they might not be able to do much at SPI either, but it might be worth a try. Or maybe take it directly to the talk page of a checkuser -- or at least someone who understands how trolls use IP acounts. That kind of stuff is way over my head, I'm afraid. -- MelanieN (talk) 22:41, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

@MelanieN We're a bit more than halfway through the protection I set up, and I'm not seeing anything in the SPI case since then which worries me, so I'm fine with unprotecting it now. The worst that happens is the bad guys come back, but we can deal with that if and when it happens. I'm not familiar with RFPP process, so I'll leave it to you to do the actual unprotection and whatever administrativia needs to happen here. -- RoySmith (talk) 18:42, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Gopher (protocol)

Reason: On July 19, I noteced a slow edit war between Zcrayfish and an IP user who changes IPs frequently. I invited IP and Zcrayfish to discuss the dispute at Talk:Gopher (protocol)#Gopher G6, but IP does not engage in discussion in any meaningful way (please see the link). The IP user has created a few accounts, Hhgg7gg6, Edia4545m and Sd777797, but for some reason elects not to use them and abanded each account the day after its creation. Please note: Edia4545m account should be sufficiently old and have sufficient number of edits for its owner to edit a semi-protected page. I'm not trying to prevent other party from editing, I'm just trying to force the IP user to use either account so that I can actually address something and not IP void. I believe a short semi-protection for the page will be sufficient to end edit war. Anton.bersh (talk) 09:50, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Murder of John Lennon

Obviously to prevent vandalism but more importantly to display the importance of the assassination. When John Lennon was assassinated in 1980 the significance was compared to JFK’s and Martin Luther king Jr’s assassination. It also deserves to be semi-protected if George Floyd, Tupac, JFK, Martin Luther King Jr, and Jun Lin’s pages are protected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JSleep3842 (talk • contribs) 10:10, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

FormalDude You can just look at the revision history to find that stuff pretty easily. I'm sure there are tools out there that compile some kind of statistics, but I don't know any off the top of my head. When it comes to page protection, we generally want to see multiple, recent examples of clear-cut vandalism. This page has only had 5 edits total in the last week or so. And, looking through the page history, I don't see any clear-cut examples of pure vandalism at all. There are some reverts, yes, but not all reverts are vandalism, and in this case it seems like all of the reverts were good faith edits. Please review WP:PP to learn more about when page protection is warranted. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 05:55, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Sustained disruptive editing. This article is about a transgender athlete, and has seen sustained disruptive editing in the form of misgendering and harassment of the article subject.

List of converts to Hinduism from Islam

Reason: Vandalism by Bringtar and making false statements of already been discussed about the changes of edits in the Talk Page when I couldn't see any "discussions" made in the Talk Page at least under his/her current user name. This user do not discuss anything in the article's talk page prior to making any changes to the article. Secondly, the user accuses me of being blocked from making any future edits when I was not. This claim is put forth to tarnish my name rather than accepting the criticism. Above mentioned user also accuses me of sock puppetry. In order to make the user more careful next time and to stop him/her from making baseless allegations on other users, the user should be stopped from editing the page. Suggesting a one week block. The user also needs to clarify on an imaginary "sourced from Hindutva websites" when inquired for the reason for removing sections from the article. And looks more like the user is accusing any websites which gives away facts those are against his/her opinions as Hindutva (which in my knowledge doesn't exist) websites and vice versa. Naveen Ramanathan (talk) 14:29, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

  • This user has some problem. His recent editing history tells that he cannot accept different opinion and considers any suggestions he doesn't like as "imaginary". This particular article has already been discussed on the Administrator's Noticeboard and another Admin User:Black Kite is looking over it. This user suddenly reverting whole edits and following the footprints of previous users who tried similarly to get the article protected from editing when they were in content dispute[58]. Thanks.

Extended confirmed protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.  FormalDude, I hear you. The problem editing did not stop with the semi-protection. It may not even stop with EC protection, because established editors are the ones who are changing it. I see there is a lively discussion about the date of death at the talk page, because some sources are saying July 27 and some July 28. While we are waiting for a definite date, would you all consider listing the date of death as "July 27 or 28, 2021"? There is precedent for that kind of hedging when sources cannot come to an agreed-upon date. Feel free to quote me. -- MelanieN (talk) 00:07, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

Various pages in need of salting

Create protected/salted: These drafts are repeatedly being recreated by sockpuppets of Zhmailik after being deleted under CSD criterion G5. The former two are also hoaxes, as Future Nostalgia is an album by Dua Lipa and After Hours an album by the Weeknd. These pages have never been created by anyone except for Zhmailik sockpuppets, so no collateral damage will be done by salting the three pages. D🐶ggy54321 (let's chat!) 13:37, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
