Comment: By "edit", do you mean "create" (as this page currently does not exist)? Also, since this page has repeatedly been created for unconstructive purposes, do you have a clear and good reason why you (or someone you know) should?

Reason: As the season premiere nears closer and closer next month (September 20), it seems more are returning to speculation/rumors as their 'source' for celebrity contestants.

Reason: This page has been protected due to an edit war but I don't think it was a proper edit war. There is a consensus at WT:FOOTY (see Archive 41) who says that players injuries should not be reported . An user constantly undid edits who removed the injuries reports and in my opinion was vandalism and not an edit war Dr Salvus 21:08, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Removal of long standing image on page by edit warring https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nova_Scotia_Duck_Tolling_Retriever Scottyten (talk) 02:56, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment, fully endorse request for page protection, preferably pinklock or silverlock, the nom is trying to override consensus for a more appropriate image in the article’s infobox (TP discussion) edit warring their own photograph (citation needed)into the article, six reverts in under 48 hours [11][12][13][14][15][16] the first four in a 10 hour period. Cavalryman (talk) 03:28, 2 September 2021 (UTC).
For context this was kicked off by @Gionabalena who replaced the image and it was reverted. Then @Cavalryman removed longstanding image and updated without gaining or allowing time for consensus. Edit warred repeatedly and did not allow for consensus discussions. Cavalryman has entered two Edit Wars within 30 days on this page with different users.Scottyten (talk) 03:55, 2 September 2021 (UTC) See here below
″Well, that deteriorated quickly. We both edit warred so please drop your gloves and you are misreading BRD, as you were bold, I reverted and you at the point had the choice to continue, but you reverted again.
I cannot demonstrate what you are asking. Can you show me where the discussion to exclude portals with icons from see also sections? If your next response does not do so (and instead makes inaccurate accusations, as this previous did) I will go to a larger forum. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:24, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
Very happy to lay down arms, it’s never productive when two good faith editors clash. A recent discussion between the members of WP:DOGS and WP:WPPORT occurred here, where consensus was to exclude the icon from see also sections. As far as I can discern, the only rationale for including such as icon is to draw attention towards the link and away from other, possibly more relevant, links in the section, it is purely decorative. As such I see no encyclopedic purpose to it. Regards, Cavalryman (talk) 01:34, 17 August 2021 (UTC)."
- Oppose Scottyten is unfamiliar with basic process. There was a discussion and a new WP:CONSENSUS was created. They objected and started an edit war with two other editors. I have also reverted Scottyten who is being tractable and insisting that their opinion (and only their opinion as a long-time breed owner) is valid. Not willing to discuss. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:45, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
- I actually suspect that if you lock to non-auto-confirmed editors this could go away as I believe that Scottyten is not auto-confirmed. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:47, 2 September 2021 (UTC)
Fully protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Discussion is continuing on the talk page but the edit warring is unacceptable. Given it's a content dispute (in some respects), cannot semi-protect. Thanks, Daniel (talk) 05:49, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Increasing amount of vandalism due to high profile nature of person. In particular, there are two unsightly photos (Marcelo Bielsa 2018.jpg) and (Marcelo Bielsa 2018 (cropped).jpg) from Wikipedia Commons that are continually uploaded as the profile picture instead of sensible alternatives. Upon investigation, these photos originate from Newell's Old Boys official media (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDfHSXvABwo) and their use on Wikipedia is therefore a violation of copyright.

Reason: There is an IP editor who repeatedly changes the field for "Legislature" in the infobox from "Legislature" to "Legislative Assembly". The editor's reason appears to be political; the edits are normally accompanied by anti-monarchical slogans. I have posted an explanation on the Talk page that the Constitution of Canada states that the Legislature is composed of the Legislative Assembly and the Lieutenant Governor, and repeatedly invited the IP editor to come to the Talk page to discuss, but that has never happened. I'm quite willing to have that discussion, but until the IP editor is prepared to come to the Talk page and have the discussion, I think the page should be put under protection. This has been going on for some months now. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 12:39, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protection: This article has experienced an unusually high volume of editing by IP users that have edited this article and only this article. From what I can tell from the logs, most of these dedicated IP accounts have pushed material with a very specific POV-based bias. Semi-protection would provide a bare minimum level of protection from such activity on this controversial subject, which involves serious accusations laid against various governments. Iskandar 323 (talk) 06:35, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Edits made by several contributors were removed by JonBoi199 who then subsequently had protection placed on this page. Jonboi199’s editing history at Robert E. Clark II, as well as Wesley College (Delaware) shows that they are currently engaged in persistent disruptive editing; they have repeatedly changed content back to how they think it should be, even when other editors disagree. Request this page be unblocked and the updates made by WCf-s2010, Monkbit21, and XTC7V32 be restored. Jonboi199 has been warned about their biased and vandalistic edits, and if they continue their edits should require review before posting. Thank you for considering this request.

- I was reacting on this request. What I see is edit-warring in the article, where many non-extended-confirm accounts are reverting Jonboi199 multiple times, whereas Jonboi199 is accusing them in COI editing.

Reason: Recently a mod has been released for the game Friday Night Funkin' by the name of Retrospecter. In the mod, an Easter Egg can be accessed by typing out the first paragraph of the Wikipedia page for this moth as stated by the mod's antagonist. Since the release of this mod, there has been an increase in edits to the Wikipedia article, mainly to the first paragraph. This can be assumed not to contribute to the article, but rather to throw off those who wish to access the mod's Easter Egg. Binzy Boi (talk) 06:40, 7 September 2021 (UTC)

Changes need to be made to the labor union section on the Henry Ford page to more accurately reflect the reasons he proposed the $5 increase in wages and reduced hours.
Henry Ford did not propose changes to wages ($5 hour) or work week altruistically, but in response to a negative change in public opinion toward him and his company when his claims blaming workers attempting to unionize for his employees violent attacks on them were disputed by the publication of photos showing the violence was unprovoked and engaged in by hired Pinkerton men, and that women were attacked as well.

Reason: I’m asking for the protection to be removed because it’s been a while since the article was protected, and there are sections that could be condensed or trimmed, and some sections that need a bit of rewriting or correction (William Shelley’s sighting of Oswald near the phone for example) and there may be IPs that want to make good faith edits as well. 80.43.197.240 (talk) 13:40, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
Not unprotected. I'm sorry that this page is inaccessible to you, IP, but this is almost certainly a perennial problem that won't just go away. Something which I think the protection log bears out, seeing as every time it was unprotected, it needed to be re-protected almost immediately. So, you have two options: register an account and obtain the WP:AUTOCONFIRM tenure (whose threshold is only 10 edits / 4 days), or you could use the edit request feature. Again, sorry and good luck.

Hello! I am not sure if I am putting this post this in the correct place, so please excuse me it is not.
The article Sexual slavery in Islam is continually being vandalized by users (often anonymous IPs), who delete large, referenced blocks of texts. The reason for this appear to be that the information is slander against Islam. These edits are always reverted by experienced users, and since these edits are never referenced and instead removes referenced information, it is easy to make the assumption that there is a religios bias from users who which to remove referenced information because they think that this information put their religion in a bad light. Recently, I myself ask for citations from certain information in the article, but this was reverted by a user who claimed these sentences had references, even if they did not. Clearly, the article attracts emotions.
Another issue has come up: the article has long had a neutrality template. Because of the consistent vandalizing, I wondered if the neutrality template was in fact placed their originally because of religious bias. I made this question on the talk page, and the template was indeed removed. It has since been restored. I have to say, that the article is large, I have not read all of it, I am not an expert in the subject, and I cannot be entirely certain whether the neutrality template is warranted or not. And since I recognize that this is a sensitive issue, I simply don't have the energy to involve myself further.
However, it is safe to say that the article is about a very sensitive subject, and I am forced to revert vandalism so often that I wonder; should not an article that are so sensitive and vandalized so often as this one have some sort of protection? Many sensitive articles who are often vandalized have such a protection, at least against IP-editing. So my question is; can this article be protected? It truly needs it, I have to revert vandalism more often on it than any of the other articles on my watchlist. Best greetings,--Aciram (talk) 17:11, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: It has come to my attention that user Ethanf9877 has edited the Louisiana College Wikipedia page numerous times with clear malicious intent. Included in the edits were provably false statements as well as the deletion of factual information in order to cast the college in a negative light. Other editors have contributed objectively false information that intentionally reflects a non objective approach by showing a clear opinion on subject matter. Completely fabricated policies have also been listed. I would request that this page become protected so that the page can be properly written and edited without editors deleting information and defaming the college. Legal action is being considered. User Ethanf9877 has also created a page for a faculty member, Joshua Joy Dara, that also is clearly written from a skewed perspective that needs to be corrected. Not only this, but on Dara's page a graphic depiction of male and female genitalia has been hyperlinked to the words "Pubic hair". This is highly inappropriate and records of these edits have been archived. The college has a staff of writers who will accurately and objectively include information on the college in the Wikipedia articles relating to the college. I request that this page be protected in a manner to prevent editors such as Ethanf9877 and others who wish to defame the institution and it's faculty from being able to delete and skew information once it is added, as this will without a doubt occur once changes are made. Blocking or banning Ethanf9877 would be highly appropriate as one can tell from the edit history of this user that the user is seeking to change the perception of public figures and institutions.

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection.. Also, in relation to your comment of "The college has a staff of writers who will accurately and objectively include information on the college in the Wikipedia articles relating to the college", editors with a close association with the college (see WP:COI) should cease from editing the article directly and instead request edits to the article via the article talk page. You and any other editors involved with the college will need to declare your conflict of interest at your userpage(s). Longhair\talk 21:05, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I request reduction of the protection level to semi or ECP.

- Malcolmxl5, El_C, the page is not upload-protected, and full protection does seem to be excessive, so the current protection levels are definitely broken in both ways. Perhaps one of you could replace it by actual ECP and log it as WP:AMPOL action. Ping: JzG, the protecting administrator. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 21:37, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

- ToBeFree, oh, no upload protection? Well, that's dumb. I matched it with the current protection level (for now). By all means, ECP everything. I have no objection. I just don't really see the point. I can't speak for Malcolmxl5, but if you think it's better at ECP level, well, it probably is and I'm just not seeing it right now. El_C 21:49, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Huh. Does upload protection not allow for a protection summary? Because I could have sworn I wrote something there (and it wasn't even that stupid (for once)). El_C 21:52, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Well, even indefinite semi-protection – usually of articles, granted – is already subject to the quite strict criteria at WP:SEMI, namely "heavy and persistent" disruption, no preemptive use et cetera. The same advice applies, as a minimum, to full protection. The section about full protection specifically reads,
Applying page protection as a preemptive measure is contrary to the open nature of Wikipedia and is generally not allowed if applied for these reasons. However, brief periods of an appropriate and reasonable protection level are allowed in situations where blatant vandalism or disruption is occurring by multiple users and at a level of frequency that requires its use in order to stop it. The duration of the protection should be set as short as possible, and the protection level should be set to the lowest restriction needed in order to stop the disruption while still allowing productive editors to make changes.
- That's three sentences full of arguments against full protection in this case. Even the words about "preemptive" use seem to apply. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:17, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- ToBeFree, right, that's what I meant when I said "downgrading just on principle." I'm not talking about what usually is held as best practice, but that in this particular case, I simply don't see the practical point (pragmatically). But, again, I don't feel too strongly about it, on principle!
I doubt they'd be issues with ECP'ing, so by all means, go for it. El_C 01:09, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- Ah sorry El C, I actually misinterpreted that. I had read it as "I'm, on principle, against reducing the protection in such cases". I'll lower it to ECP and everyone's happy. Or so.
~ ToBeFree (talk) 05:33, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: WP:MEDRS violations on this page can be handled by semi-protection rather than extended-confirmed protection. A few semi-confirmed (but not extended-confirmed) editors have wanted to add well-sourced information to the article but haven't been able to, so this level of protection is doing more harm than good. –Gladamas (talk · contribs) 05:23, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

El_C 10:30, 9 September 2021 (UTC) - While I usually don't place such protections anymore as I've become tired of the discussions around Discretionary Sanctions, I won't unprotect such central ECP-protected pages until the community (or now ArbCom, rather) removes the sanctions in this area. Specifically, "Long COVID" may be the very last page to unprotect in this area. New editors jumping into COVID19 editing too early are likely to cause headaches to others and themselves; the amount of disruption is already tough when restricting edits to experienced editors. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:43, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
Declined ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:45, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
Reason: The page was salted until I asked for unprotection yesterday to create a redirect. The redirect was created (thank you). I am now asking for the protection level to be reduced from extended confirmed because I think it is conceivable to expand the redirect into a full article (although admittedly I'm not the one who can do that -- if I could expand it I would, as I do have extended confirmed privileges). I think that if we try to reduce the protection level it may encourage somebody to expand the redirect into a full article. Banana Republic (talk) 12:56, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
. I've reduced the protection from admin-level to ECP for a reason. There's the WP:DRAFT approach and there's consulting Talk:DevOps, both avenues that less experienced editors can use to assess the viability of such a stand-alone page. But, no, I'm not ready to downgrade further just after a mere day. El_C 15:15, 9 September 2021 (UTC)Declined
- The page was salted because somebody(ies) created an advertisement page(s) under that title, requiring an administrator to delete the page. Now that the page is a legitimate redirect, any attempt to turn the page into an advertisement page can be easily reverted. Hence, there is no need to have any protection on the page at all. Should the page be vandalized, we have other tools at our disposal to handle potential vandalism. Banana Republic (talk) 17:20, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- I got that, but I still don't know enough about the specifics to feel confident in doing that. Just because a section exists about something does not mean it's deserving of a stand-alone page, and again, I don't know enough about this. But fair enough, I'm striking my close and welcoming another admin to take a crack at it. El_C 21:53, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: The page was salted until I asked for unprotection yesterday to create a redirect. The redirect was created (thank you). I am now asking for the protection level to be reduced from extended confirmed because I think it is conceivable to expand the redirect into a full article (although admittedly I'm not the one who can do that -- if I could expand it I would, as I do have extended confirmed privileges). I think that if we try to reduce the protection level it may encourage somebody to expand the redirect into a full article. Banana Republic (talk) 12:56, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: High level of vandalism and edits by IPs and new inexperienced accounts. This article is getting a lot of traffic now because of current political events (Fall of Kabul (2021)). And with it there have been a lot of editors making inconstructive or bad changes, including edits to the infobox removing sourced material of "allies/enemies" and other info in the lead. Several of these editors are clearly editing them based on their own political agendas. This is a sensitive topic in the long-term related to Afghanistan and South Asia. I strongly believe this article should get Pending Changes protection. This will allow good editors and admins to keep edits in scrutiny, which is what definitely needs to be the case for something sensitive and in current news. WR 20:15, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
Question: Weaveravel, it kinda looks like you reverted Nurg's changes with an edit summary that read, in part:
It was edited by people following their own agendas
. You joined the project in May 2020 — Nurg joined in Oct 2003 (a year before me). What am I missing? El_C 01:30, 9 September 2021 (UTC)- This was my mistake, I admit. You can look at my talk page that it has been resolved, Nurg told me about it and I explained the error. I effectively did a "rollback" due to several bad editors but without seeing Nurg's edits that were not part of that. Anyway, I still strongly believe the page should be protected, in fact since yesterday we've had yet another new user putting a long paragraph in the infobox, yet another example, which has since been fixed by Nurg. --WR 23:34, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- Weaveravel, this article is being edited too actively for pending changes to be useful at this time. In any case, nothing recent is really standing out for me. But by all means, feel free to provide diffs (Sept only, though), if you think I overlooked something important. El_C 06:35, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

@El C: OK. Here's a few (all are in the lead)
- removing sourced information in infobox [53]
- another example from same user [54]
- an IP removing sourced info (Pakistan) in infobox again (and covering it up by cheekly saying "fixed typo") [55]
- this IP changing militant to 'terrorist' (even if the group is really terrorist, putting it right there in the first sentence in place of militant is inappropriate, especially as it violates neutrality) [56]
- this user removed all the sourced content mentioning its links to Al-Qaeda, its alleged partners in infobox, and its actions. This is definitely personal agenda [57]
- another IP changing info from source with something that again I suspect is their POV ("Denied by Pakistan government but supported by Inter-Services Intelligence ") [58]
All this happened in the space of a week or two, and there doesn't seem enough patrolling to check these, hence why I rolled back. I hope this is enough convincing this page needs protection. --WR 15:44, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent edit warring and disruptive editing from multiple users and IPs. Oqwert (talk) 18:06, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- Just wanted to say this but I find it kind of ironic the guy who was disruptively editing was the one who suggested it be protected in their edit summary (not saying you're the one disruptively editing Oqwert). Blaze The Wolf | Proud Furry and Wikipedia Editor (talk) (Stupidity by me) 19:00, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Oqwert: It's hard for an admin here to identify why the edit warring is disruptive in the sense that ECP protection should be applied to support one side. A quick look makes me think that it is just edit warring and full protection should be used to force discussion and an RfC if needed. That's because the talk page has nothing since July. Thoughts from anyone on what should happen are welcome. Johnuniq (talk) 03:31, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Johnuniq: The page has also received high levels of "petty" vandalism since 2020; out of the last 100 edits, 47 have been reverted. While I agree a short-lasting FPP would help resolve the current content dispute, I believe a longer-lasting ECP is necessary to reduce the volume of disruptive edits the article receives. Oqwert (talk) 13:47, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
Declined @Oqwert: This page needs fairly clear-cut cases to protect an article. I will watch the article for a while and take action if I notice a problem. If the current edit war continues, please start a section on the talk page and briefly set out the problem so that uninvolved onlookers can work out what's going on, state your view, and invite discussion. You can ping me from there if people continue edit warring after something new is on the talk page. Also, if semi-protection is needed, let me know. Johnuniq (talk) 03:44, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
Reason: Full protection request due to edit warring between extended confirmed users. Edit warring, which began in July 2021, centers on POV content, sources that are out of date or are dead links. ElderZamzam (talk) 01:19, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

- Well, shit, Longhair.
- @El C: I based my longer protection on the fact it was previously semi-protected for 6 months, the article stabilised before disruption arrived again upon protection expiry, it was then briefly semi-protected, then the disruption continued shortly after that second protection ended. It's an ongoing issue there. Let's roll with your protection settings and see how things pan out in a week from now. -- Longhair\talk 11:54, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

- @El C, it's not that it's an active page, but that the proportion of edits appropriate for the page is very low.

- Just as a sidenote: pages like these (and other WP:) pages can't be pending-changes protected. As for protection of these pages: I tend not to protect them, because, as a rule, activity, and therefore disruption, isn't usually that great, and they are talk-pages of "help"-pages.

Reading the corresponding book (The Empire of the Steppes: A History of Central Asia.by Rene Grousset,1991/The Mongolic Languages,Juha Janhunen,2006), Grousset only quoted Bartold’s guess instead of confirming Kara -Khanid speaks Chinese.

Reason: The article used to be salted because editors used the article name to create an unambiguous advertisement page. A few days ago the article was created as a redirect. The article could potentially be expanded to an article in its own right, but the current protection level may prevent non-extended confirmed users from expanding into a full article.
Since the article now exists as a redirect, any attempts to make it into an advertisement page can be easily reverted using much simpler tools. The request was previously made, with the admin who created the redirect declining to act and seeking the opinions of other administrators. A bot keeps deleting the request ([61] and [62]), necessitating this new request. Banana Republic (talk) 19:39, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: The page was salted until I asked for unprotection yesterday to create a redirect. The redirect was created (thank you). I am now asking for the protection level to be reduced from extended confirmed because I think it is conceivable to expand the redirect into a full article (although admittedly I'm not the one who can do that -- if I could expand it I would, as I do have extended confirmed privileges). I think that if we try to reduce the protection level it may encourage somebody to expand the redirect into a full article. Banana Republic (talk) 12:56, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

- @El C I'm saying that pre-protection, not post-protection, there wasn't enough persistent move warring to justify indefinite protection in the first place. On December 20th, 2018, one editor moved it from Oath, and then a move request was filed to move it back. Then on January 8th, 2019, someone else moved it from Oath and it was immediately moved back and indefinitely protected. Dekimasu should've initially applied a time-limited move protection that would've expired after the current corporate rebranding effort had had a change to settle out, since it was just two editors jumping the gun on a corporate rebranding. We wouldn't indefinitely fully protect a page after two reverts, and while I understand that page moves can be somewhat more disruptive than edits, that still doesn't seem to meet the level of move warring that would warrant indefinitely protecting it so that only administrators can move it. This sounds like a catch-22, where you can never unprotect a page because you need evidence that it won't be vandalized, but you can't get evidence that it won't be vandalized because it's protected. --Ahecht (TALK

Reason: Hello, recently I myself contributed quality content to article Panevėžys (1, 2), which is about the 5th largest city in Lithuania. However, by glancing at the edit history of this article, I soon noticed that over the past year it almost constantly was subject to vandalism and childish disruptive editing (1 - mass removal of content and added words which says that Zinka has big boobs, 2 - it says that Panevėžys is shit, 3 - self-declaration of non-notable person, 4 - random person name and surname added, 5 - childish editing, 6 - same editor (in Lithuanian myliu tave means I love you), 6 and 7 - another childish editor, 8 - most likely self-declaration of non-notable Counter-Strike:GO video game player).
Seeing such nearly constant disruptive behavior of multiple editors, I request to apply permanent Semi-protection to this article in order to avoid disruptive childish IP editing and to protect quality content of this important Lithuanian article. I'm planning to expand this important article with even more quality content and it would be too difficult to constantly monitor if some childish IP editors will perform disruptive editing, especially as some time will pass by. -- Pofka (talk) 10:23, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: One user, alternating between a single-purpose account named Fixitrightnow and various IP addresses, has been adding a massive amount of cruft to the BLP article. Most of it is unsourced, and one massive section that uses Daub's book as a source merely copy-pasted the exact text from her book (copyright violation, I believe). Myself and User:Jjj1238 have explained to that editor why their edits are inappropriate and I have tried to engage the user multiple times to ask them to discuss their changes, but they are apparently uninterested in discussion, preferring to revert many times instead. I am hoping that adding page protection might prod them into discussing their proposed changes. Wes sideman (talk) 12:23, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
- Addendum - I just noticed that Rwgutmann, an account that originally added the cruft and hasn't been active for 7 years, just weighed in on the talk page of a user that I was discussing the changes with. It seems obvious to me that this is the same person, so now I think there's a sockpuppet issue too. Wes sideman (talk) 12:43, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

- https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=RuPaul%27s_Drag_Race_All_Stars_(season_4)&curid=57960290&action=history
- That's just three of the many pages. The basic problem here is that Drag Race (like many pop culture properties, I suspect) is absolutely riddled with fans who are convinced that whatever they want is therefore encyclopedic. There was a discussion here Https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_RuPaul%27s_Drag_Race#It_has_been_a_while which is where the consensus for the changes was made; you can see the stark difference between policy-based argument and "but I like it so it should stay" argument. After posting they were going to make the changes, @Thijslandsmeer: waited quite some time before implementing them. It was only after implementation that there has suddenly been an influx of brand new accounts trying to editwar the changes away solely because they don't like it. They largely appear impervious to how policy actually works, and so protection is necessary to stop the endless disruption to the articles. Disruption which was even worse before the change, because there were constant wars over who was 'high' or 'low' with various editors clinging to their own personal interpretation of what a 'positive' or 'negative' critique is. Which quite neatly encapsulates the problem: brand new and/or single-purpose accounts are edit-warring to maintain a preferred version over which they can edit-war. Daundelin❁ 11:40, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Daundelin: Are you asking for semi-protection of all articles like RuPaul's Drag Race (season 12)? The history of that article shows some recent turmoil but nothing that semi-protection would stop. WT:WikiProject RuPaul's Drag Race#Progress tables across all seasons is far too long and complex for interpretation regarding what can be enforced by administrative action. There seem to be two issues. First, whether the "Contestant progress" table should be in a template that is transcluded to the article, or whether the table should simply be in the article. I have to warn you that people roam Wikipedia looking for single-purpose templates such as {{DragRaceProgressTable/12}} and nominate them for deletion saying that such content should be in the article. I'm just letting you know and am personally happy with the idea of a template. The second issue concerns details of what the table looks like. I think you would need a separate RfC on each issue where a simple question is asked. If a good consensus resulted, anyone editing against consensus could be warned and sanctioned if necessary. If there is anything that would benefit from semi-protection, please link to it and identify a problematic edit with a diff or the date/time of an edit in history.

- It's just ridiculous. Fans of the show (and, for the record, I am one) are doing the usual thing where they are unable to distinguish between encyclopedic content supported by policy, and what they want. There was consensus for the change; the user who initiated the changes made an announcement after much discussion and then waited a week before implementing. The nonsense needs to stop. Daundelin❁ 02:26, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
- That article has now been semi-protected by another admin. If more is wanted, please answer the question in my earlier comment and be specific about exactly what is wanted.

Reason: The company has gone through radical structural change in the past few years, from leadership to customer base.
To list a few reasons why the page needs updating:
+ It’s stated that Santa Fe Relocation is listed on the Copenhagen Stock Exchange, that is not true since the company is now privately owned; + Santa Fe Relocation is no longer affiliated with WridgWays like shown this being a subsidiary. We are not doing business with them (they are a separated company based in Australia), even if historically related; + Accreditations are outdated and not limited to those listed.

Reason: After reviewing the protection log, it seems as though this page was protected indefinitely in 2011. Around that time Ciara was a more mainstream artist with recurring singles and album releases in the public eye, which is why I am guessing it was protected. However, with her being independent and less mainstream now, there are much fewer page updates than when she was at the height of her career. Unprotecting the page would make it easier for editors like myself to make edits as needed. You can see by the edit requests on the talk page that there is some lag in updates due to the protection. 2601:42:900:BEF0:7483:EAB7:D736:F22E (talk) 05:03, 13 September 2021 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Sockpuppetry. Pax Verbum 23:34, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- Oops, I wrote out a SPI request without realizing one was already here. Instead of letting it go to waste, I'll just add it.
- This page has been seeing plenty of sockpuppets over the last day. Before that, there were considerable COI violations and other editing disruptions by (supposedly) the article subject. See the SPI here.
- What warrants page protection, though, is what threats were made in the edits by recent sockpuppet accounts:
"My followers on Twitter such as Mikemikev will raid this place and close down Wikipedia. Communists."
–Emil Kirkegaard 1488[71]
"Please delete this article or my followers will ruin this article."
–Emil Kirkegaard 1488[72]
- This seems to indicate that the sockpuppetry has the potential to continue further and disrupt the article. So I think a temporary semi-protection would allow the article to be edited while weeding out any future puppets. RFZYNSPY talk 00:39, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: I actually just pulled up Kai's announcement of the No. 1st album, and he never refers to it as his fourth album, or even a studio album. On the other hand, he has officially referred to = as his fourth studio album. Regardless of whatever conversation took place on the No. 6 talk page, I believe that given the announcement from Kai today, we should go back and simply change what we had labelled it as. It was very clearly meant to be just a collaboration album to tide fans over until his next official studio album. How anyone doesn't get that is beyond me. 183.88.127.86 09:46, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
In addition to all of this, has been changed on both Ed's main page and discography page as a collaboration album, not a studio album. Literally the only thing left to change is calling "=" his fourth album, not fifth, as it no longer makes sense to call it his fifth.183.88.127.86 Kaiphyoaung200 (talk) 09:46, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: BLP policy violations – I'm aware it's unusual to indef-semi a page that's never been protected before, but I think it's warranted given the circumstances. I seem to be the only person who monitors this page for the serious BLP issues that arise due to the fanbase of the convicted child abusers it discusses. Twice, now, I've overlooked something, and something has slipped through for an extended period of time. First it was the doxxing of one of their underage victims, which stuck around for over a year. This time it was unfounded allegations (violating WP:BLPPRIMARY and WP:BLPCRIME) that a related party was an abuser, which made it two months. All of this content comes from IPs or non-AC editors, so I think the best course of action would be an indef semi under WP:NEWBLPBAN.

Temporary create protection: Repeatedly recreated – repeated moving draft that is not ready for mainspace by a possibly COI editor. – robertsky (talk) 06:40, 19 September 2021 (UTC)
Reason: Tachash had an article of its own. There is enough material to support an article separate from Tabernacle (of 15 usages in the Bible, 12 are about the Tabernacle's covering). Nine years ago the edit warring was "solved" by a LOCKED simple redirect to a section in Tabernacle named Plan. This request to remove the protection on the redirect is based on a recommendation- please see my talk page for specific wording.

- User:Malcolmxl5 - I haven't really reviewed the draft, and am not planning to review the draft while the title is a locked redirect. One of the first things that I tried to do was to tag the redirect with {{R with possibilities}}, which was not possible. There is a history of sockpuppetry with the title, and administrator User:Drmies locked the redirect. I advised the submitter to take one of the following actions: 1. discuss with the locking administrator, User:Drmies; 2. request page unprotection, which is where we are now; 3. request Deletion Review. As a reviewer, I don't want to make a one-person judgment that overlooks a history of disruption. I will say that the article content is satisfactory for an article; what I haven't reviewed is the quality of the references. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:53, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
- Malcolmxl5, the problem wasn't edit warring, it was the persistent recreation of a crazy article by a set of socks. I saw no indication in the efforts by this editor that made me think it was going to be any better--and they actually used some of the same weak sourcing, and wrote similarly weak content.

Reason: I recently rewrote Draft:Dhar Mann and the AfC reviewer (Nomadicghumakkad) told me the article needs to be unsalted so that it can accepted. Mann's YouTube channel has been covered in much more depth since past AfDs and creation protection in July 2020. I think that points to his notability when combined with coverage on his weed business, legal issues, fraud charges, etc. For reference, I sent a similar request to the protecting admin (Black Kite) before I submitted the article to AfC: User talk:Black Kite/Archive 86#Dhar Mann.

Indefinite create protection: Repeatedly recreated – An example stub category redlinked from the high-profile (50k views/month) Wikipedia:Stub project page (to which all stub templates point). {{u|Sdkb}} talk 22:41, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
Question: Sdkb, can you point to a recreation? All I'm seeing is a singular creation. El_C 23:04, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
- El C, I only saw that one instance, too. I wouldn't want to see full protection, but I think autoconfirmed protection would be a net plus, as there's no plausible reason a nonconfirmed editor would want to create the template, whereas it's fairly probable that it'll be subject to more test creations in the future if left completely unprotected. Better to just have to apply protection once than to have to deal with the speedy deletions in perpetuity (not that it's hard, but it adds up bit by bit). {{u|Sdkb}} talk 23:20, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
- Sdkb, I'm not necessarily declining this preemptive protection request, but I don't really understand the kind of damage that re-creation would bring about in this instance. El_C 00:15, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- Very little; just a bit of work to clean it up. But, per my previous comment, there's even less prospect of damage being done by semi-protecting it, so I figured protection would be a small net positive and made this RPP. It's not a big deal either way, though, so if protecting it would require going out on too much of a limb, feel free to decline. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 00:23, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for explaining. I admit to being a bit wary of going ahead with it right now. I'd welcome another admin's view on the matter. El_C 00:35, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hmmm...this is not what protection is for. In the end, it would be a preemptive protection; these we do not do. If we wanted pages to be protected to have less work with them or prevent vandalism, or permanently prevent re-creation, we would have had automatic semiprotection for all pages for a long time. Perhaps also see Prosecutor's fallacy. I would decline this request. Lectonar (talk) 09:09, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe it was the late hour, but Lectonar was able to put it in context for me (thanks). We do in fact preemptively protect WP:HRTs, but this doesn't look like it qualifies as that.

A section talking about the copyright dispute perhaps should be added, as he has *some* ground to claim he owns the Name Medabots (The english name of the Medarot franchise, which fell into disuse due to the lack of any material being brought overseas), but clearly not the intellectual property, which he tries to conflate it with.

Reason: This article was created in March 2019 right when a new organization was formed, but which changed its name before the month was out because of controversies that played out in real life, the media, and on Wikipedia apparently. Few editors have been able to change the article since 2019 to correct the name change or update information. I'm pretty sure the controversial nature of the [then new] organization has long since passed and the article no longer needs extended confirmed protection. I have drafted a change for the article to update it with the correct name and several citations (as soon as I'm able to make an edit there). Please consider dropping the protection level a notch, perhaps to semi-protection level. Platonk (talk) 19:53, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

- "[Edit=Require extended confirmed access] ... [Move=Require extended confirmed access] ...
(Edit warring / content dispute: starting at this relatively low level of protection for now)".
- "[Edit=Require extended confirmed access] ... [Move=Require extended confirmed access] ...
- Wikipedia:EXTENDEDCONFIRMED says, "A registered editor becomes extendedconfirmed automatically when the account is both at least 30 days old and has made at least 500 edits". I don't see hardship, but I won't object to other administrators changing a two-and-a-half-year-old protection level. – Athaenara ✉ 17:07, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Athaenara: I've been an editor for 7 months and still haven't made 500 edits. I did a flush of edits the other day trying to reach 500, but didn't make it. If the original purpose of the protection level has long since passed, I don't understand why continue to keep the protection level now. I guess I'll just go fix some typos in the hopes of clocking another 32 edits to make the 500 edits level. Platonk (talk) 22:26, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: The article is prone to Vandalism and/or destructive edits. Extending full protection of the page to 6 months or indefinitely will be beneficial for the article. The article is currently under temporary full protection which expires in a few days. There was serious vandalism done on the article which I reversed more than once before the page was protected. Once the temporary protection expires there is a high chance that there will still be more attempts to vandalize the article. It is therefore necessary that the full protection of the page be extended for 6 months or indefinitely for the good of the article. The extension of full page protection for the article will be much appreciated. I hope you can take my request into consideration. Thank you! Nyanza Cushitic (talk) 22:59, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

Full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – While there is currently semi-protection, there appears to be back-and-forth editing/POV jockeying involving extended-confirmed editors. There is an ongoing talk page conversation about the content, but to prevent further disruption, this should probably be locked until that is resolved. There has also been some social media hype around the article and the perception of its POV, which may contribute to future page problems, but I don't know how to address that now. — Mikehawk10 (talk) 18:24, 22 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: I rewrote the article after it was nominated for deletion because it was simply a promotional piece before. Now IP's are reverting back to that revision in an effort to make the company look good (promational sentences, promotion of the founders and removing the criticism section). I've warned a few of the IP's to no success. This has been done 4 years ago and last month, has been done on the Turkish Wikipedia (page protected there), and now they are trying it here again.

Reason: High level of vandalism occurring on Maria Theresa Asmar's page with wrongful references to her memoirs and unfounded claims. These claims includes an Indian ethnicity, church adherence to the Chaldean Syrian Church, descriptions of her travels in Turkey and the way her family passed away. Asmar was in fact a Chaldean, adherent of the Chaldean Catholic Church and the niece of one of the bishops of that church. While describing her travels through many countries in great detail, she never describes Turkey in her memoirs. And not all of her family members fell to the plague, her father died a martyr for example. MrKnowItAll-TheOG (talk) 16:24, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: I request to apply permanent Semi-protection to article Novogrudok due to persistent vandalism and insertion of controversial statements about other country (Lithuania) history by amateur editors (now by user Susjaj, however in June another user Лобачев Владимир kept inserting them as well). These false claims were denied in this discussion as users from Belarus failed to provide WP:RELIABLE sources. As we know, Belarus has a cruel authoritarian regime, led by Alexander Lukashenko, thus governmental sources about other countries history fails as WP:RELIABLE. There certainly will be more amateur users in the future who will attempt to insert false claims and unreliable sources published by the authoritarian regime to this article. -- Pofka (talk) 20:48, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
Note: Pofka, the WP:CONFIRM tenure is an account being
four days old and hav[ing] made at least ten edits to Wikipedia
, so WP:SEMI it would have no effect on the user in question. El_C 21:37, 25 September 2021 (UTC)- @El C: Thanks for pointing that out. Then it probably requires higher protection level. But propaganda that this now-Belarusian city was capital of Lithuania at some point should finally stop in Wikipedia as such claims are rejected/ignored by the mainstream international historiography. Not surprisingly, aggressive users has failed to provide at least one WP:RELIABLE source to defend these false claims. In this discussion yet another user Johnny Moor aggressively blamed Lithuanians with ridiculous things instead of providing at least one WP:RELIABLE source because there aren't any as these claims are false. This, in their own words, parasitic myth caught an eye of the Vilnius University scientists and they even released an analysis of this myth in English (here). -- Pofka (talk) 09:24, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
Declined That's not what protection is for (please read our protection policy, if you have not done so already); as this is actually one user, and if it is indeed vandalism, and not just a disgreement about the reading of sources, this can be dealt wih via AIV. If not, dispute resolution will be a way forward. Disruption overall is not high enough to warrant any kind of protection atm. Lectonar (talk) 12:26, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
- @Lectonar: It is an attempt by some Belarusian nationalists to rewrite the internationally recognized point of view of Lithuanian history with pseudoscientific theories, made up by themselves. It is a truly disruptive behavior. There was a civilized attempt to sort out this dispute with them by asking to provide reliable sources here: Wikipedia:No_original_research/Noticeboard/Archive_46#Original_research_at_Novogrudok, but they did not found any reliable English sources and instead spread their anti-Lithuanian hatred and absurd accusations. -- Pofka (talk) 13:28, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: With one exception, the cast for this season of SNL have not yet been confimed as returning to the show. Several IP editors have deliberately disregarded requests for citations to verify the edits they are trying to insert. Those responsible appear to be in clear violation of the policies relating to reliable sourcingg, the crystal ball policy, disruptive editing and the rules regarding consensus, which in this case means that, with the exception of the anonymous editors, all others who have edited the page have agreed that until there is a reliable source verifying the rest of the returning cast and the new additions, the information cannot be included. My suggestion for the request is that the page be given temporary protection that will last until at least this Saturday, when the first Season 47 episode will air.

User talk archives of inactive users
Unprotection: Requesting removal of full protection from 392 User talk archives of inactive users who have not made any edits in 2 years. Most of them are inactive former admins who had protected their own archives from years ago. My bot MalnadachBot is doing a task of fixing high-priority Lint errors in signatures per approval in Task 2. These pages came to my notice when I saw that my bot had skipped some of them due to being under full protection. There is no longer any benefit with the pages remaining full protected and is only blocking maintenance edits. The above page is a placeholder, I have included the full list below. Please see the "User:Mdd4696's talk page archives" section in RFPP/Archive 28 June, where I had made a request to unprotect a single user's archives.

- @Lectonar: There's no valid reason for the protection to continue in my eyes. I don't see vandalism or disruption that it would feasibly prevent and I think a redirect that has barely been touched since the protection does not still need it. Sennecaster (Chat) 10:52, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Well...that might be because of the semiprotection, and I see plenty of possible vandalism prevented by it. Anyway, I'll let another admin decide this, I wouldn't unprotect. Lectonar (talk) 11:34, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
Declined This is such an obvious vandalism target (based on the many edit filters that try to catch this term being inserted elsewhere) that it is not worth leaving open while it is a redirect; should this page ever become an article I'd support attempting to remove the protection - though suspect it would quickly become needed again.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – This article is about a Nazi symbol with no proven pre-Nazi history at all. It is fairly regularly edited by IPs to insert the utterly uncorroborated claim that it is an ancient Germanic symbol. No evidence (even bad evidence) is ever offered and is it pretty certain that none exists otherwise somebody would have found a reference for it by now. It is likely that the people trying to claim otherwise know this. This has been going on, with varying levels of intensity, for ages so I think indefinite semi-protection is required.

Reason: Increase to Semi-protection. IP's continuing to edit war and pending changes is insufficient and difficult to manage. See also talk page and WP:ANI#Akhtar Raza Khan and image. Please note I may be considered by some to be non-neutral in this assessment. This should lead to forcing talk page discussion rather than edit warring. Thankyou.

Ordinarily, I'd say that this page just isn't active enough to even merit pc at this time, but due to the WP:BLP nature of the violation, I'll bend. El_C 02:35, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Over the period of the past decade and more, many users (mostly IPs) have kept adding/restoring the same WP:OR, non-encyclopedically written synopsis (possibly an attempt at humor) that's longer than the lyrics of the song itself. (It might also be a copyvio given the ES of the first diff that added it but am not sure). See these other diffs: 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 (a revert of a change to another subpar synopsis, but still) 10 11, presumably a 12th by this IP that has been revdelled, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 (just today). Although infrequent, I think the total number of times this has happened warrants semiprot. eviolite (talk) 02:09, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: There was a long string of obvious vandalism, but all of it was done by IP accounts[125][126][127][128][129]. Registered editors were making productive edits, not engaging in edit-warring -- full page protection should be lifted so they can continue to do so. Stonkaments (talk) 21:50, 27 September 2021 (UTC)
- Pinging protecting administrator El C. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 00:58, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, well, as I explained on the talk page, I'm inclined to give another day or two for the unconfirmed accounts to make their case. But if another admin feels the full protection should be immediately converted to semiprotection, I have no objection. I honestly don't know enough about contested subject matter, so I chose to err on the side of caution. Any admin who knows more than me about this (a low bar), is welcome to act as they see fit. I need not be consulted or even notified. El_C 01:28, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
- @El C: The protection duration is only 5 days, which is perfectly reasonable for a content dispute. I typically protect for at least 1 week in those cases. I'd let it run its course and then change it to indef semi. The good-faith IP editors can always request edits on the talk page.

No issues per above with the length of protection. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:14, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

Could you please replace the name of the "Internation Health Partnership" page to "UHC2030"
The partnership has changed its name in 2016 as outlined on the UHC 2030's history page and on the UN sustainable development goals' website
Feel free to coordinate if you have any question.

Question: No Great Shaker, why are you insisting on a redirect over a piped link, I don't understand. El_C 13:07, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- Hello, El_C. I'm not insisting that the redirect should apply permanently and I'll be quite happy for a bona fide editor to make the change. Vandalism rollback reverts all edits done by this vandal on the grounds of persistent block evasion. If any of his edits should happen to be useful and correct, they can be handled individually. In fact, I'll attend to this one now. Thanks. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:14, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- No Great Shaker, I realize that this is socking/block evasion, but the reverts by you and others is flooding the revision history, which erodes the page's stability. And, you're doing so by restoring an inferior version (though, granted, in a minor way). That doesn't connect for me. El_C 13:21, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)Do we stand aside and let this vandal do what he likes? Surely this is why these pages should be protected. You can see how frequently these attacks are occurring. Anyway, I've made some changes to the Greens page which improve the paragraph in question. I'll do the same with the Tory page. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:30, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- BTW, I say I "realize" that those IPs are block evading, but actually what I meant was that I realize you contend that this is so. Are you able to demonstrate that these IPs are that master you've invoked (basically trying, and I'm sorry to say, succeeding, in getting a rise out of making cosmetic corrections)? El_C 13:27, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- See the link to the Harry the house SPI in the protection request above. The changes being made each time are exactly the same. Some of the articles he attacks have already been protected. Reverting vandalism is no problem to me as I use rollback and I see it as good practice so, no, he does not "get a rise" out of me. I am just doing what I can, as a matter of course, to protect the encyclopaedia from an LTA case. No Great Shaker (talk) 13:34, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

No Great Shaker, I don't feel you're being entirely responsive here. By flooding the revision history with reverts that override cosmetic corrections (which isn't actually "vandalism," per se.) you might actually be giving this master exactly what they want. Anyway, I'm a volunteer just like you, so just providing me with a couple of diffs rather than sending me to the SPI, would be helpful; seeing as you're already familiar with the user in question while I am not, you'd be saving me time. El_C 13:43, 29 September 2021 (UTC)
- Okay, close all four requests and I will remove the articles from my watchlist. I have better things to do than this. The articles are being persistently attacked by a known LTA case and need to be protected in the same way as your colleague RoySmith did for four other targets here. No Great Shaker (talk) 14:00, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

Reason: This is a bit unfortunate. Apparently the USFWS has just published a national update on their species list, naming a bunch of species they have decided to regard as definitely extinct. This includes the IBW. However, we universally follow the IUCN when giving overviews of conservation (or extinction) status, and that is still at "critically endangered/possibly extinct". Now vast numbers of well-meaning newbies are flocking to the article and are "updating" it by their lights. Discussion is ongoing on the talk page, but that doesn't prevent a simultaneous merry churn of misinformation in the article.

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Recent edits by newly registered WP:SPA, and edits before that by IPs, have been a problem.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Disruptive editing and vandalism from many different IPs returned not long after the initial 3 days of semi-protection; this is also a very high traffic page. I would strongly suggest semi-protection over pending changes as almost every single IP edit is vandalism or disruptive editing. Jeuno (talk) 01:48, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Now that I look back at this, I think it should be semi-protected until the show's popularity starts to cool down, which is probably going to be at least 3 months, although it could also be kept at indefinite pending changes. Your choice. I would highly suggest looking at the edit history first though. Jeuno (talk) 04:32, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – WP:BALKANS; persistent unsourced alterations to the number of speakers. Amanuensis Balkanicus (talk) 04:59, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
- Comment - Most of the unsourced alterations seem to be coming from a specific group of IPs, maybe try to warn each IP on their page first. They may not be aware that they need to source information from reliable sources. Also, there haven't really been many edits on the page; there seems to be a bunch of edits within a day or two, then no edits for about 1-2 weeks, then a bunch of edits again. Therefore I wouldn't say that semi-protection is required yet. Jeuno (talk) 05:12, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes protection: This page has barely any edits from IPs, have of which have been reverted. The small amount of useful contrbitutions from IPs will still be able to go through with Pending Changes, and since there is such a small amount of edits from IPs, little interference will be caused. There is no need for this protection to be temporary. Starship SN20 (talk) 11:01, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
Not done. I’m not seeing a need here. Perhaps a review of the protection policy would be helpful. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:57, 30 September 2021 (UTC)
Reason: A user has been continuously reverting my edits as part of my pending review process.

- @Lectonar Not content dispute btw, was referring to 210.186.80.213 and 210.187.10.80. Both of them (which is likely the same person) keep adding incorrect information by implying that single is part of Savage which isn't true because the track listing for the EP is already released of which Next Level, including Forever and Black Mamba above are not part of the EP. Same for Aespa article. But it's okay to declined, since the latest IP has been temporarily blocked for 31 hours. Just wanted to give more detailed explanation.
