Template:Non-free manual reduce

Reason: Either this template also uses Template:Non-free reduce (template-protected), or both are sharing each other, or something like that. Also, this template may be potentially highly visible. George Ho (talk) 06:22, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Declined – This template is not used widely enough to be considered a high-risk template. 27 transclusions. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 18:46, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
I don't get it. The other template has 88 transclusions. It doesn't look wide enough but is template-protected. --George Ho (talk) 20:11, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Han Chinese

Reason: High level of disruptive edits by LVTW2 (123.192.182.76), who has been warned previously of edit warring and disruptive editing (in his talk page), starting October 29 trying to move Singapore from the overseas Chinese category to the one with native countries with significant populations. He keeps making the change for more than 10 times even if a consensus has not been reached in the talk page. I suggest either protect the page or ban LVTW2 (123.192.182.76) from editing this page again. Taekhosong (talk) 19:40, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Still a content dispute; this can't be solved via protection. Lectonar (talk) 20:19, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Example Article Name

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because ....... . Lineupandwait (talk) 20:03, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Warped!

Reason: IPs persistently adding bogus/unsourced information (mainly regarding a company called 'Shoe Ink' as a production company, yet not supported by any sourcing). Magitroopa (talk) 18:12, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Magitroopa the IP is Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/HarveyTeenager. wizzito | say hello! 18:27, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Chesapeake and Ohio 1309

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This is minor, but someone keeps adding small font in the infobox against MOS:SMALL. They have said "so what, other articles do it" in an edit summary where I have directed them to the MOS. IP keeps changing, so I can't put more explanation/warnings on their TP.

Phil Spector

Reason: Persistent disruptive edits from IPs. [1] [2] [3] [4] I seem to recall that the article used to have indefinite semi-protection, until an edit war raised it up to full protection and expired a week later. ili (talk) 23:19, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 04:57, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Lance Tsosie

Indefinite semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism on a BLP; most vandalism includes defamation. This has been ongoing since the page was unprotected and will very likely continue due to the popular controversy surrounding this persons tiktok. TagaworShah (talk) 02:04, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Uranium Site (talk) 06:23, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:44, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Ravana

Reason: Page is being vandalised by IP user [5], who is a sockpuppet of user [6]. This user has been previously banned multiple times for hijacking the article Kabil, but this behaviour stopped when that page was semi-protected. They are now hijacking the article Ravana with identically disruptive editing, adding promotional content under the name "Yash Vignesh". Tamptonato (talk) 06:27, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:44, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – See WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Ilri cgiar. InvalidOStalk 13:00, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – New user Rewdem is consistently re-adding content they want in, but has been reverted many times. User needs to discuss the changes first. Protecting the page will encourage them to the talk page. - FlightTime (open channel) 20:34, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Probably need some short semi, and some revdels. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 13:54, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

2021 in American television

Reason: The issue that caused the protection has been resolved, and if not a full unprotection, a severe reduction from the year protection it was given. It took nine days for an edit request to even be responded to, and it was not a satisfactory response. The response times are maybe only slightly better than what they were in the previous protected period -- 141.157.254.24 (talk) 04:08, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: Lectonar (talk) 14:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Note: : The page was recently semied per a complaint at AN3. I don't mind if another admin wants to remove the protection, but the recent problem with the edit request is due to the requester not filling it out properly. See the reason provided by User:AssumeGoodWraith for the most recent decline. You need to provide a "Change X to Y" in your comment in order for it to be acted on. In a quick look I could not see anything in the history about the supposed 100th Riverdale episode. If you can fill out the 'change X to Y' properly, leave a note on my talk page and I'll consider making the edit. According to List of Riverdale episodes, only 97 episodes have been aired. EdJohnston (talk) 15:23, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
You looked too quickly. The 100th episode is set to air December 14th, as the request details. And the information was sourced in the request. It was probably assumed that the person who would respond would read the edit history and find the referenced edit, which if the request had probably been responded to in a timelier manner, wouldn’t have had as much digging. As seen here it was explained in great detail why it was added. You can also see that it was hidden until Wilkja19 removed the hiddenness but only added an episode title, leaving it vulnerable. And as the request came with multiple sources for the info, it would be absolutely silly for the entry to not be added. The page isn’t just about chronicling what has happened, but what will happen. So to base your hesitancy on “Only this amount has aired” when others are scheduled is also very silly.--CreecregofLife (talk) 15:48, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Ryan Kavanaugh

Temporary full protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring.

I'm not seeing anything that would justify increasing the protection level; stopping people from continued editing (or manipulating the content of their edits) is what legal threats try to achieve – if we start protecting pages just because someone made one, we make that chilling effect even stronger. So, while I would advise that editors tread just as carefully as they should with any BLP, this is Not done. --Blablubbs (talk) 15:37, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Reason: People just put fake news and inappropriate things and words on the wikipage so the level of protection of the page should be semi so that auto-verified users can edit the page. Nikita Bhamidipati (talk) 09:08, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Every single time this page has come off protection (including its short stint being CRASHlocked) it's had to be re-protected almost immediately, as is evident in the log.

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism – Protection expires tomorrow and given the recent media attention should probably be renewed. Dark-World25 (talk) 07:52, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

  • @Dark-World25: Believe me I will not hesitate to indefinitely ECP that page if there is any sign of disruption there. However, now that the protection's expired, things seem fairly quiet on that page, and I'm not really seeing any need to protect at all at this time. It's a very reasonable request for preemptive protection in what is a very complex situation. However we're quite simply not allowed to preemptively protect pages like that. We can keep this open to monitor the article for awhile though. ~Swarm~ {sting} 01:36, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Curious George Goes to the Hospital

Reason: I cannot BELIEVE there is an edit war on this page, but... there you are. Over a dozen times in the last year, an IP editor (from different addresses) has removed a phrase at the end of the plot summary, and User:Neel.arunabh has reinserted it. I warned Neel.arunabh, and left a note on the talk page for the article asking for a discussion to occur there, but less than 12 hours later, an IP user removed the phrase again, without discussion.

2021 in American television

Reason: The issue that caused the protection has been resolved, and if not a full unprotection, a severe reduction from the year protection it was given. It took nine days for an edit request to even be responded to, and it was not a satisfactory response. The response times are maybe only slightly better than what they were in the previous protected period -- 141.157.254.24 (talk) 04:08, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

@EdJohnston: Lectonar (talk) 14:13, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
Note: : The page was recently semied per a complaint at AN3. I don't mind if another admin wants to remove the protection, but the recent problem with the edit request is due to the requester not filling it out properly. See the reason provided by User:AssumeGoodWraith for the most recent decline. You need to provide a "Change X to Y" in your comment in order for it to be acted on. In a quick look I could not see anything in the history about the supposed 100th Riverdale episode. If you can fill out the 'change X to Y' properly, leave a note on my talk page and I'll consider making the edit. According to List of Riverdale episodes, only 97 episodes have been aired. EdJohnston (talk) 15:23, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
You looked too quickly. The 100th episode is set to air December 14th, as the request details. And the information was sourced in the request. It was probably assumed that the person who would respond would read the edit history and find the referenced edit, which if the request had probably been responded to in a timelier manner, wouldn’t have had as much digging. As seen here it was explained in great detail why it was added. You can also see that it was hidden until Wilkja19 removed the hiddenness but only added an episode title, leaving it vulnerable. And as the request came with multiple sources for the info, it would be absolutely silly for the entry to not be added. The page isn’t just about chronicling what has happened, but what will happen. So to base your hesitancy on “Only this amount has aired” when others are scheduled is also very silly.--CreecregofLife (talk) 15:48, 30 November 2021 (UTC)

Spider-Man: No Way Home

I want to delete the part where it says that "No Way Home outpaced Endgame in it's first day of pre-sales" because it didn't. It actually had the biggest pre-sales since Endgame (which I would say would put it in 2nd place of highest first day of pre-sales). Here's my source, straight from Fandango, which states that "#SpiderManNoWayHome had Fandango's biggest first 24-hours in pre-sales since Avengers: Endgame."

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. DoebLoggs (talk) 15:42, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – I checked the article's protection log and also talk page edit requests after ECP. This article is under constant disruptive editing by editors who have some WP:COI with PFI.

They don't care what secondary reliable sources say about PFI, they care what primary sources say about PFI, and what they beleive in.

The only thing they want is to remove all sourced content, that are critical and shows the organization in negative way.

I can promise that, they will continue forever. Some even with ECP, as with this edit of Tanjeem Ahmed which was reverted.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Popular_Front_of_India&diff=1040713877&oldid=1040710596

ECP will make it easier for Wikipedians. There are endless IPs and new accounts that will remove well sourced negative content, and there is a chance of good faith editors getting into edit warring.

As noted on the talk page of the article, this began in January of 2021 where a series of IPs (likely being used by the same person, given geolocate) have been attempting to edit war from "actress" to "actor" on this page, despite discussion on the talk page, despite the actress herself self identifying as "actress" (twitter bio). IP keeps range hopping, so blocking an IP won't help. I'm an administrator, but given how many times I've reverted this it could be construed that I'm involved (though I don't think I am). Therefore, out of an abundance of caution, requesting another admin. Another admin previously applied a three month protection. Disruptive editing has resumed and continues unabated. --Hammersoft (talk) 20:13, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Repeated attempts to add an apparently non-notable person to this list against WP:LISTPEOPLE. No source to show the person's connection to the city. No Wikipedia article to show his notability. Subject's own YouTube channel of him playing music used as source for his supposed notability. user:GavinDawson75 was recently indef'ed over this, and now two IPs are restoring his edits.

Has been explained in edit summaries, on the article's talk page, and on the users' talk pages. Meters (talk) 05:12, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Both the registered User and IP editors have received warnings for disruptive edits in this article, and others. I have no means to prove it, but I believe one person is behind this edit and is making it via different methods.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Repeateting the same reasons again.

I checked the article's protection log and also talk page edit requests after ECP. This article is under constant disruptive editing by editors who have some WP:COI with PFI.

They don't care what secondary reliable sources say about PFI, they care what primary sources say about PFI, and what they beleive in.

The only thing they want is to remove all sourced content, that are critical and shows the organization in negative way.

I can promise that, they will continue forever. Some even with ECP, as with this edit of Tanjeem Ahmed which was reverted.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Popular_Front_of_India&diff=1040713877&oldid=1040710596

ECP will make it easier for Wikipedians. There are endless IPs and new accounts that will remove well sourced negative content, and there is a chance of good faith editors getting into edit warring.

Please also read the green section in the article talk page "Sources to check before edit requests". Knight Skywalker (talk) 06:54, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Alan Peter Cayetano

Reason: Indefinite semi-protection for reasons of occasional vandalism adding unsourced and biased edits into the article. I've spotted three users (two accounts + one IP) with only one activity record which showed them purging chunks of the article. I have restored some myself. At the moment, most of the article's edits (whether good or bad) are coming from one user. Goldenwikifruit (talk) 07:02, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

Hurricane Sam

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Edit war between two new accounts, the lower intensity is supported by official sources. The higher one is not. Possible sockpuppetry is involved as some LTAs are in the habit of vandalizing storm intensities. TornadoLGS (talk) 18:52, 5 December 2021 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) Disruptive editing began almost as soon as previous semi-protection expired. TornadoLGS (talk) 19:16, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protected – 3 months. Intense warring about storm intensity among a group of newly-created accounts and also some IPs. If you believe this is sockpuppetry, please supply details. EdJohnston (talk) 21:50, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
A couple apparent LTAs tend to target hurricane articles, changing wind speeds just enough to bump the storm up or down a category and repeatedly reverting. Bumping strong category 4 hurricanes to category 5 is one of the more common forms of this. Admittedly, I am less than certain, as there are some good-faith, albeit misguided, changes to intensities based on original research or less-reliable online source.

Deerfield Academy

Reason: Constant vandalism by rival schools' students, and recent expiry of IP block on Choate network. Toadspike (talk) 15:18, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

The last edit war (before Choate’s IP was blocked, perhaps with similar repercussions at Deerfield, though I have no information on this) happened two years ago. Since the vandalism resumed almost immediately after the block was lifted, I think there is no reason to assume that further vandalism will not occur. Protecting this one page seems like a less intrusive solution than blocking hundreds of users in a renewed IP block, and would also prevent vandalism from other schools, such as the recent edit from NMH.

2000s

Permanent protection: This article has served its purpose, and recent additions are mostly WP:NPA, WP:NOR and WP:Neutral violations. Events were accurately added as they happened but as time passes by, inaccurate and recent cultural trend-based propaganda-driven additions are being made during the recent time. Current edits and new sources to these past events are not as accurate as the edits when this decade went on and the sources used within the 2000 to 2009 time frame. The more new edits that gets added in recent times, the more inaccurate the article is becoming. As it stands now after a few interventions it is in OK shape, and I think its time to close the coffin lid on this article and let it stand uneditable for good, and let the new uses do whatever they want to current 2010s and 2020s decade, most of the events that happened in the 2000s were before they were even born, so to stop them from making any more inaccurate edits, and make it only editable by admins, stewards, etc, I request this article be permanently protected for good so thats IPs and regular uses including the likes of extended confirmed users myself can never touch it again. Time has gone for the article, and recent additions with recent sources are just propaganda-driven and mostly inaccurate and WP:NOR violation. So please permanentally protect this article. Dilbaggg (talk) 16:33, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

Bane in other media

Reason: The user Jaszen is driving me up a wall with a poorly structured original research paragraph insisting that Tom Hardy's Bane from The Dark Knight Rises is considered "one of the greatest film villains of all time" based on his inclusions within some rankings from Empire and Ranker. I have explained to them ad nauseam that far more sourcing from far stronger sources is required in order to make such a bold statement about the character and that Hardy's Bane simply lacks the same type of cultural attention from the film industry that the likes of Josh Brolin's Thanos or Heath Ledger's Joker received that merits claims like those.

Sir Ewan Forbes, 11th Baronet

Temporary semi-protection: A bunch of IP address (that may all be the same person) over the past few weeks have been trying to change the article to remove the well sourced statement that the subject is a trans man. The IPs have become even more active over the past few days. The timing of all these IP edits seems to coincide with the publication of the book The Hidden Case of Ewan Forbes that is an additional academic publication to the sources already in the article specifically covering the background of the subject and him being a trans man.

Eleni Gabre-Madhin

Reason: Eleni Gabre-Madhin is a living person, and the page referenced is experiencing a high level of vandalism. Ethiopia is currently in a civil war and there is terrible societal tension. As you can see, she is a public figure, with a highly visible profile. In recent days, she has been caught up in the crossfire in a massive social media negative campaign which defamatory attacks and false allegations against her which started on Nov 24. Since then, as you can see, her page has suddenly received many more views and also editors have been acting in a vandalistic manner by removing positive content and adding very negative and biased content that portrays her as someone plotting to overthrow the government etc, which is based on false accusations. The content is extremely damaging to her and not factual or substantiated at all, with a major impact on her international reputation and employment. Even sources referenced in recent edits are slanderous and made with malicious intent. Without exaggeration, she is even worried for my personal safety and of my family. I would request that you provide her full protection against vandalistic attacks for her page for the time being, and also the right to assign an admin to edit content based on factual and documented content. Various people have tried to delete the negative content but it keeps getting reversed. Any help would be really appreciated. If needed, you can reach me at yraswork@yahoo.com if any questions.

Singh

Reason: Recent disruptive editing. User keeps ignoring sources and keeps making repetitive and redundant edits that disrupts the flow of the article. [20][21][22]. His edits are poor quality and unnecessary because they are removing key chronological events about the usage of the name in the 16th century and he is insistent on repeating a claim that is literally in the next sentence, disrupting the chronological flow of the article and making it a worse read. His edit: "Traditionally used by the Hindu Kshatriya community, it eventually became a common surname adopted by different communities including Rajputs and Sikhs.[1][2][3][4] It was later mandated in the late 17th century by Guru Gobind Singh (born Gobind Rai) for all male Sikhs as well, in part as a rejection of caste-based prejudice.[5][6] It has also been adopted by several castes and communities. As a surname or a middle name, it is now found throughout the world across communities and religious groups, becoming more of a title than a surname.[7]" -- Why repeat the same claims in one sentence when the next two sentences say and expound on the same exact thing? He's removing sourced claims that Singh was a Rajput suffix in the 16th century despite [23] and [24] (page 443) stating that "As a Rajput suffix, Singh only appears to have come into general usage by the 16th century". [25] "Singh began to gradually replace "Varma" by the 16th century among Rajputs.

Update: Disruptive user has admitted that Singh is indeed a 16th century Rajput surname. However, he keeps insisting that his repitive and redundant edits should stay. Keeps editing the page, keeps making it unnecessarily long. His current edit: "Singh seems to have come into general usage by the 16th century among the Rajputs"- seems unable to properly construct a sentence. Second sentence in lead para too similar to last sentence in para. Suthasianhistorian8 (talk) 06:27, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent sockpuppetery from multiple IP addresses putting the island in Singapore. (It's not.) Likely ineedtostopforgetting. Seloloving (talk) 00:04, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

You are being deceiving over the reasons to protect the page. It is NOT written that the island is IN Singapore. Please look at the diffs presented. The edits are not vandalism or made by malicious IPs. I can't control when dynamic IPs change. There are unique circumstances surrounding the island; it is an island whereby the land it sits upon is owned by Malaysia, while the lighthouse and its surrounding structures are owned by Singapore.
It may seem confusing to anyone not living in the region, but here's a source that talks more about it - Singapore Lighthouse on a Malaysian Island, do note however that it is a Malaysian source and may not be that impartial. Still, the source even added "Malaysia, in a way, has yet to have full sovereignty over Pulau Pisang." 58.142.181.108 (talk) 00:33, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
Sock selectively pushes pov, from the same article - In 2003, the then minister for foreign affairs of Singapore, Professor S. Jayakumar, mentioned to the republic’s parliament that the sovereignty over Pulau Pisang is with Malaysia..

Reason: As the subject is getting married and there is increasing interest in the article. Edit requests at the talk page are not being taken up readily.

I would like to add that Edit requests not being taken up, was weakest of my reasons. And I referred to Talk:Katrina Kaif#Semi-protected edit request on 5 December 2021 where the IP provided multiple RS 2 days back. Jay (talk) 19:11, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
Not unprotected While I'm sympathetic to the fact that the article has been protected for 8+ years straight, there appears to already be enough chaos at this article just with the editors that can edit through protection. Considering she's about to get married, this would be about the worst time to unprotect the article. Maybe in a few months, when the marriage stuff dies down. However, it's likely that vandalism will quickly return, and the article will go back to being protected. It's not that hard to edit a semi-protected article. You just need an account that is 4+ days old and has made 10 edits. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 01:14, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

Lithuania–Taiwan relations

Reason: Re-filing this request since it's now multiple IP users (though suspected to be a single user) repeatedly making large-scale POV edits, do not engage constructively on talk. Repeatedly reverts content before attempting to discuss on talk (see Talk:Lithuania–Taiwan relations). China–Lithuania relations was protected for similar edits by IP user. Seems to be a different IP address every day (up to 3 so far).

The edits are sometimes constructive but this user simply does not engage constructively. See the latest exchange on talk for example. DrIdiot (talk) 00:30, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

  • Just adding a comment that I did file a request yesterday, but at the time I thought it was a single IP user but now it seems it's a different IP every day (possibly same person) making wholesale edits to the article, and engaging unconstructively on talk.

Reason: History of persistent vandalism by IPs. Vandalism started up again right after temporary semi-protection expired. Was granted a week last May and one month in November.

Full protection: Long-term edit dispute about some more 'Epstein once talked to this guy who has an interest in the company and that dude now needs to rot in prison' nonsense that has been the province of two accounts (GRADYA&M76 (talk · contribs) and Wikimoto123 (talk · contribs)) that are fighting in edit comments, with only one actual user talk page comment between them. Most importantly, that dispute has nothing to do with the company or its officers or employees in the least. Both SPAs on this article with no other contribs outside it. Nate • (chatter) 22:08, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

Erm, wouldn't just ECP be enough? Or am I missing something? However that would be assuming that protection is the best choice here. Whilst both SPA's are somewhat disruptive, we need to WP:AGF here. I've given Wikimoto123 (talk · contribs) a COI warning too. If both go any further, the individual users can be taken to ANI or the COI noticeboard. This would probably be better than fully protecting this page, no matter how vexatious these two's behaviour is. Just my thoughts? Mako001 (talk) 10:21, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
Not done, for now. Indeed, WP:ECP would be enough. With warnings and notices issued today, the last edits from the two users were on Dec 9, so this is a wait-and-see thing now. El_C 14:13, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

@The Alternate Mako and El C: It has the "Template Protected" template so that the correct message shows up when the documentation is transcluded at Module:Portal.

Why isn't this considered an issue? I'm just interested to know, since another High visibility template was rendered unusable (or at least had some issues) for 3 hours after an IP replaced the documentation page with "templete". I really shouldn't say this (per wp:beans), but if I was to blank both documentation pages I have requested protection on here, wouldn't the templates become completely unusable? Possibly even altering the appearance of these templates? Mako001 (talk) 15:14, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
@The Alternate Mako: If you view the source of Template:Main, you'll see coding equivalent to <noinclude>{{documentation}}</noinclude>. The noinclude tags ensure that edits to Template:Main/doc won't affect any pages that use {{Main}} - vandalism to Template:Main/doc might disrupt the appearance of the template page itself, but cannot upset any articles. -- John of Reading (talk) 15:23, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

Douglas Ross (Scottish politician)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism by an IP user (users?) attempting to remove claims that Ross was "elected" because he was not elected directly, but rather via a regional list. This is clearly untrue (Scotland uses the Additional Member System (a.k.a. MMP) to elect MSPs, and election via a regional list is commonplace) and represents an attempt to push a non-neutral point of view (delegitimising Ross by contesting the fact that he was "elected" to the Scottish Parliament).

Mara Jade

Permanent semi-protection: Persistent level of IP vandalism throughout 2021, likely the same troll who has targeted the page starting from October 2020. We have had 2 undiscussed blank-and-redirects within the past 24 hours. I suggest that this page be permanently semi-protected to stop wasting everyone's time, especially NPP editors who have to review the restored article each time the vandalism is reverted. Haleth (talk) 00:43, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I see one revert yesterday, and another one end of November. Overall, the article gets very little activity, certainly not enough for semi-protection. I have watchlisted. Lectonar (talk) 14:47, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

LGB Alliance

Reason: The current main editor of the account is acting as gatekeeper. Decisions were made solely by this person and any reasonable attempt to challenge these is being dismissed and accusations cast out. There is a level of bias here that I think adds to impartiality. Given the contentious topics discussed on this page, a higher level of scrutiny should be in place. A group has decide in a chat to include 'opposes transgender rights' which is massivly invalid and shows a lack of proper editing of this page. Samcowie (talk) 01:13, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent vandalism – Recent increase in vandalism by IP editors in the last 24 hours, with four different IPs which assume to be controlled by the same person making identical claim of their edits.

Reason: Doing this because the last request wasn't explicitly denied or granted.

Reason: Persistent attempts to add a non-notable person to the Notable alumni section of the article.

Pending changes for disruptive editing. Not many watchers on the page, an IP editor is persistently attempting to add original research into the article and they are irresponsive to attempts at communication. Tayi Arajakate Talk 10:11, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

  • The IP version is better than the one you prefer though, correcting errors and bringing things up to date (e.g. removing a name from the team which is not mentioned on the linked source). Fram (talk) 12:38, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
    Fram, sorry, what? They added a bunch of primary sources which do not directly verify their material. They added that "...remained in print from 1995 to 2020. The magazine, which celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2015, published its last print edition in June 2020" and provide their instagram page as a citation which not only doesn't support the line anywhere and even has its last post 5 hours ago. If you look at their first edit (Special:Diff/1053098961), this is based on their personal experience. Then there is a notice which states that they aren't taking new subscriptions for the time being, presumably added to support the assertion that the magazine does not publish anymore. The two are not the same thing, this is OR 101. In any case, the notice in the lead isn't encyclopedic content. The removal of the name of the team member can be retrained sure but not the rest, I did not check the last bit, my bad. Tayi Arajakate Talk 13:05, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
    • Well, they sure haven't printed a new edition since their April-May 2020 magazine[94], so that part seems correct. No new print versions, no new subscriptions... Instead of blindly reverting and trying to get the article protected, it would be better to try to write a compromise version, incorporating undeniable facts (no ne printed issues for 1 1/2 years, no subscriptions for printed issues accepted) and leaving out the interpretation of them: then you can see if the IP accepts this. And with an IP editor without a fixed IP (like here), it is no use trying to contact them on their talk page, they may very well never have seen your message. Try posting to the article talk page instead. Fram (talk) 13:29, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
      Eh, I should say that this looks like an insistence for "truth" rather than verifiability. They are publishing new pieces on their website and marking it as part of the 2021 issues, so it's not even that clear. Anyways, I have removed the more egregious ORey material and added some templates to the article for now. Tayi Arajakate Talk 14:29, 16 December 2021 (UTC)

Effects of climate change

This Part is about the section “Wildlife and Nature” I plan to add this part after the “Ocean ecosystem” as another subtitle.

Climate Change Effects on Ocean Animals

Climate change has had adverse effects on the survival and reproduction of different marine organisms, especially fish and other invertebrates. The changes in the composition of water characteristics from incidences such as increased acidification resulting from C02 absorption limit aquatic survival. When industries emit a significant amount of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere a significant amount of the gases are absorbed by large water bodies. The influence of changing water bodies composition has resulted in the extermination of different fish species with others moving to new latitudes [1]. Besides, there is a significant enrichment of water bodies by nutrients that flow from increased farming activities. The nutrients support the significant growth of marine plants. The influence is competition for space of such plants with originations such as fish and deprecation of available oxygen. Besides, through climate change, there are increased incidences of eutrophication that are influencing the rise of invasive plant species in the water bodies [6]. The effect is significant competition for space for the indigenous plants that are a significant food source for marine animals. Through increment of water temperatures influenced by the higher rate of absorption of rising heat on earth, there is a disturbance of marine specifies life cycles. Some of the animals are unable to withstand the rising temperatures, resulting in significant deaths and probable future extinction. The climatic changes influenced by global warming support significant algal blooms in different parts of the globe especially in the USA, Japan, Europe, and Australia. The introduction of aquatic macrophytes in terrestrial ecosystems, wetlands, and freshwater has caused significant ecological changes. The influence is an increasing trend of invasion of lacertian species to the sea from the seas to oceans and vice versa [8]. Aquatic ecosystems are relatively sensitive to changes in their habitat conditions. The projected aquatic biodiversity adverse effects from global warming are relatively higher when compared to the terrestrial counterparts. A quantitative synthesis shows that climate change influences a warming-induced reduction related to the sizes of ectothermic species [3]. There are over 30,000 species of diverse vertebrates living in water and climate change is likely to lower this number in the future [3]. The coexistence of the identifies specifies occurs through structured food-webs, which are significantly distorted by the ongoing climate change in the globe. For fishes, their common biological adaptation to their habitat change is moving to newer areas. The impact is a disruption of food for marine animals that depends on them. Aquatic species that cannot grow in the increased warm waters are also likely to reduce the food available for aquatic animals. The influence is an imbalance in the marine ecosystem and the eventual extinction of many marine plants and animals’ species.

This part should be add into section “Physical Impacts”, which is more specifically under subtitle “Sea Ice”

Climate Change Effects on Ice Melting

Climate change is a significant contributor to increasing ice melting on the earth’s poles. Solar radiation on ice is expected to be reflected because ice and snow are relatively white causing significantly less impact on their melting. However, due to the rising global warming, there is an increment in the earth’s temperatures that contribute to ice melting, especially during summer [2]. The incidence contributes to the exposure of the lands and oceans underneath such melted ice. The exposed surfaces absorb more of the incoming solar radiation which they later release to the atmosphere. The influence is an increment in the overall heat on the surface of the earth, which contributes to increased global warming. Therefore, melting ice has an indirect influence in causing more global warming and the eventual melting of more ice. There is a prediction that in years to come, there will be no more ice on the surface of the Arctic ocean [5]. Global warming is further causing significant thawing of permafrost, which supports the release of carbon dioxide trapped in the land source. The gases are released to add to the problem of global warming and more permafrost melts. A combination of thermal expansion and increased mountain glaciers’ melting is also resulting in an increment in the seawater levels. There is a prediction that the sea level will have raised by about 1.5 to 2.7 feet by the beginning of the 22nd century [4]. The prediction relates to the current prediction of global warming, but the actual increment may be higher if efforts are not in place to reduce global warming. There is a possibility that continued temperature rise will influence higher melting of ice sheets, which will significantly increase water volumes in oceans. Paleoclimatic evidence shows that with an addition of between 1.5 to 2 degrees centigrade of warming, there is a possibility of overhauling Greenland Ice Sheet destruction [7]. Such an incidence has the potential of increasing sea levels by over five meters. Such a substantial rise in water levels could submerge multiple islands and cause significant flooding of cities bordering large water bodies.

Zendaya

Temporary extended confirmed protection: BLP policy violations – Specifically the insertion of WP:GOSSIP: I'm a bit concerned about the persistent mention of a relationship between her and actor Tom Holland, with at least one source constantly cited to back it, which neither confirms nor denies the relationship itself (it more identifies other sources, unreliable by Wikipedia standards, which say this). Unfortunately, even if an admin goes with extended-confirmed protection of the article, there are still going to be insertions of this gossip (EC editors have also added this content from time to time.) I'm tempted to ask for indefinite ECP, but I don't know. MPFitz1968 (talk) 15:20, 17 December 2021 (UTC)

You'd be better off going with indefinite ECP. I've never seen any point of specifically asking for ECP or semi-protection to just be temporary as doing so only opens things up for additional disruption in the future once that expires. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 00:25, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Requesting Pending Changes Protection. Page is almost targeted by IP hoaxing vandals almost everyday. Recent page history just shows a bunch of IP edits that are all rolled back in groups. Although there was a previous RFPP done within the last 30 days, the situation has become worst. The hoaxing IP address had previously been ranged blocked, but has come back after the range block ended. Furthermore, there are now new IP address unrelated to the previously range blocked IP address now adding on to the hoaxing pile.

El C,the filer is obviously banned user Curious boy np who has rather misguided an idea of a patriotic duty, which involves propping up Nepali Congress and its select leaders (mostly Bimalendra Nidhi). There just doesn't appear to be a good way to deal this user. Protection may be advisable to give us some respite from this user, not anyone else. Otherwise, I would go for WP:BANREVERT; Khamba is either also Curious and this conflict has been manufactured to mislead us, or they are a new good faith contributor. Curious has so many accounts and IPs these days; it's hard to AGF with any new account. But some interest from new editors around this topic area is to be expected this month. So, I would not assume anyone except the filer is working against Wikipedia's goals in favour of their misguided political beliefs, yet. Regards! Usedtobecool ☎️ 15:08, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Unprotected Someone must have used the sandbox styles in the main module at some point, causing the transclusion count to spike to over 5,000. There's only 9 transclusions now, so we can safely unprotect. — MusikAnimal talk 23:00, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi GKFX, is there something specific you'd like to change in the template's content? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 13:18, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
No there isn’t, I just noticed it as being massively over-protected - it shouldn’t even be TE protected but somehow it’s got onto the list of most-vital templates. User:GKFXtalk 13:21, 18 December 2021 (UTC)
It could as well be a hardcoded MediaWiki feature, just like {{!}} now is. Treating it as essentially hardcoded may explain the protection level. To me, the only downside of any protection level is the prevention of good edits, and I can't imagine any good edits to the template, so there's no downside. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 13:24, 18 December 2021 (UTC)

Help:Your first article

In Help:Your first article#The basics:

  • Register an account. All you need is to choose a username and password. This will give you various powers. After a few days of editing articles, it will give you the power to create a new one.

I propose to put the {{If IP}} template around this section so it will only show up if you don't have an account, or alternatively also have the {{If autoconfirmed}} template to create a unique message that shows if you don't yet meet the autoconfirmed requirements. My change is below: (note you may have to open the source editor to see the message)

Fano (nationalist movement)

Reason: Hi,

This page has been protected by some groups who are against the Fano nationalist movement. As a Wikipedia is a place for a firsthand information access on various topics, people should be allowed to make edits which they think should be the fact.

This page specifically is related with the current conflict in Northern Ethiopia and people from both sides have different views on the Fano group. Unfortunately, the current article contains one sides view and is protected from including ideas and contributions from members of the group.

We hence ask for the responsible administrators to lift the protection and make the page available for edits and contributions.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals

Require PETA to disclose their true primary mission that they hide from the public while pretending to care about protecting animals which they do not.

Donated funds from well intended but mislead contributors is used to lobby legislative bodies to make touching a pet in ways their religious beliefs object to, a felony crime while encouraging continues use of steel leg traps so horribly painful the trapped pet or non domesticated animal literally chews off it’s own foot in an unsuccessful attempt to free itself.

When the trapper arrives and finds someone’s pet in their trap they don’t try to rescue someone’s beloved animal, they kill and hide it so it’s owner can never discover what happened to the dog or cat they love and miss so much.

PETA is an organization with an agenda they hide from the public that must be fully exposed to better inform potential donors who wrongly assume their generous donation will go to stop such horrific pain and death of innocent animals. 192.181.193.3 (talk) 09:33, 22 December 2021 (UTC)

Declined per WP:BLANKING. @Geraldo Perez: @Dunutubble: @The Grand Delusion: Users, even unregistered ones, may remove comments from their talk pages...including block notices. Declined unblock requests may not be. But, block notices may be. The IP is within their privileges to remove the comments on User talk:50.104.22.14. Even if it wasn't allowed, we wouldn't protect the page when it is one IP that is acting on the page.

Re the numbers, I was wondering if minuscule adjustments are productive and a reason to avoid one-month semi protection which looks appropriate. In your three diffs of problems, one editor has been blocked indefinitely, an IP has been blocked for six months, and the third is from an editor who has made a single edit and that was silliness in the article 12 days ago.

It is a highly biased reporting. Love jihad is not even an Indian language or Hindi word. Love jihad was first reported by churches of UK and later by churches of Kerala. It is the communist Govt of Kerala that confirmed it that Islamists were involved in Love jihad and drug jihad. IN UK both Christians and Sikh girls were targeted and churches an sikhi raised this objection. This does not mean Islamists did nto target Hindu girls in UK or Kerala but Hindus were the last to recognize it.

(Non-administrator comment) Your edits are non-encyclopedic, superfluous, and blatantly self-promotional and therefore against WP:COI.

Talk:Garena Free Fire

Reason: Indefinite semi-protection: I know this is grossly irregular to ask this, but the only IP edits that the page seems to get are unconstructive forum-posting, and I've had to ask for RD/OS for some edits due to the users also posting their player ID number (generally in the context of seeking technical support). I intend to include a link to the game's official forums on the talk page shortly to try and mitigate this, but for now I'm seeking semi-protection to prevent any further unwitting self-outing (and possible edit-conflicts) while I do this. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 03:18, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

Nota bene: A quick search reveals the game has neither official forums or anything approaching an actual support ticket system (the "support" link on the official page literally just checks for bans). I'm still requesting indefinite semi-protection since the signal:noise ratio is so lopsided, but I will need some time to think about how I want to approach this, since the most straightforward/common-sense method is not viable. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Jéské Couriano 03:28, 24 December 2021 (UTC)

Illusory Walls

Reason: An IP user (presumably just one under multiple addresses) has made the same edit removing information from the article about ten times over the last two months, and been reverted every time by multiple editors. A discussion on the subject was had in which two other editors agreed that the information could stay, but despite linking to that discussion (and proposing the IP editor start another one in the article's Talk page to explain their side of the argument) they have instead continued their crusade and ignored all other editors. It's gotten quite obnoxious at this point, and this seems like the best solution at the moment. QuietHere (talk) 01:22, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

Ludwig Ahgren

Reason: This article has been vandalized 18 times since the beginning of December - targeted by single-purpose IP addresses or accounts which almost exclusively engage in vandalism. A temporary increase in protection level is warranted. Pilaz (talk) 01:28, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

@Pilaz: I suppose it would be obvious for anyone with a clue, but all I can see is a dispute regarding whether "Peter" should be included with no explanation that I noticed. The most recent example would not be affected by semi-protection. Is protection needed due to the Peter issue? Is there an explanation somewhere why the article should be as it is (without that name)? Johnuniq (talk) 02:40, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
@Johnuniq: In a recent Youtube video, the mother of Ahgren mistakenly called Ahgren "Peter" instead of "Ludwig" while on the phone (On Youtube "I watched EVERY Epic Rap Battle of History to answer this question", 10:18-10:25]). If I recall correctly, Peter is a relative of Ahgren, hence the confusion. This is essentially turning into a meme where his fanbase will call him "Peter" to mock him, which is very tongue-in-cheek, but that I suspect will require multiple reverts a week for at least the next week, depending on the life expectancy of this inside joke. It's uncontroversial that the subject of the article's name is Ludwig Ahgren, as it is also his stage name - having to regularly revert "Peter" joke edits on a BLP seems grounds to me for a temporary and limited increase in protection. You're right about semi-protection regarding the last comment, but that editor is an outlier since 90-95% of unhelpful edits have been made by IPs and editors with very few edits. Then again, you be the judge of what's best to do here. Pilaz (talk) 03:37, 25 December 2021 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of one month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @Pilaz: Let me know if more is needed, such as the editor I mentioned who would not be affected by semi-protection.

Singh

Reason: Indefinite pending changes protection. The page has a low edit count, and is a battleground for religious and community matters. The vast majority of bad faith edits and attempts to remove/add unsourced information predicated on religious/community feelings is from brand new users/ips and this has been going on for many years. Examples include: flooding the infobox with an excess amount of images [108] * 15 of these types of edits in the past 2 days, [109] many of these edits trying to disrupt the timeline of the usage of the name and giving undue weight to their community, [110] removing key information for no reason. The talk page of the article also reveals that over the past decade or so there have been efforts to censor the historical usage of the name by certain religious communities. On top of that the article is already exhaustive and there is virtually nothing else substantive to add or remove. At the very least, there should be some sort of protection on the page for a few weeks or months, but indef is ideal. Aleena98 (talk) 16:27, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

XRP

A search for «XRP» automatically redirects to Ripple. This is unfortunate in my opinion. Saying XRP and Ripple is the sams is a bit like saying Microsoft and Windows is the same thing. They are not.

Obviously «Satoshi Nakamoto» and «Bitcoin» are seperate articles. Thus should also Ripple and XRP be separate.

If Ripple disappears tomorrow, XRP will continune to exist and function just fine. They are independent, thus should have seperate articles. Stian MP (talk) 20:02, 25 December 2021 (UTC)

Potential superpowers

Reason: Persistent vandalism, against Three revert rule – Recent increase in vandalism by several anonymous IPs in the past week, mobilized from mutiple IP addresses which assume to be controlled by the same person or group making mostly similar controversial edits.[116][117][118] [119][120] The behaviour has been warned by different editors with request of building consensus before keeping on reversions but were all disregarded, and giving no relevant reason for the change. LVTW2 (talk) 16:12, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

  • User:LVTW2 is right. I also support article protection, I just create a notification on this page, the User:LVTW2 was faster than me. Topic of "Potential superpowers" is a controversial topic, a cold outlook and a willingness to consensus are needed, IPs make controversial changes and they create an edit-war with no ethics whatsoever. An example is the current edit-war created by variable IP 117.233 (117.228, and similar). Even though a discussion thread is open (in talk page), which shows that its changes violate Wikipedia rules, IP does not discuss or want to wait for any consensus. Semi-protection indefinite is the most sensible option for this article. Subtropical-man (✉ | en-2) 17:25, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi Qwerfjkl, if the security of a userscript (here: "script-installer") depends on the stability of a template, that's a security issue in the script. As the maintainer of the script is an administrator, they can protect any pages that really need to be protected. Please contact them instead. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:22, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. Someone keeps on editing the motto to a unsourced claim, "We Horse". This has been going on for months, so a short term protection will not do justice. The IP changes, so AIV will not work. A permanent, or at least a protection for the next 6 months should be fine. Semi protection would be good, as it won't even allow him to edit without a account. If they get a account and vandalize I'l bring it to AIV. Cheers! Lectrician2 (talk) 01:13, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

Reason: Indefinite full protection - enforcement of AfD decision, has been repeatedly recreated, has previously been co-ordinated on Facebook group dedicated to the subject - for further reading, please see ANI archive and user talk convo, plus the current ANI discussion which led to blocking of one editor.

Semi-protected indefinitely. Hey Daniel. Sorry, but I don't see how fully protecting makes sense. Even going straight to WP:ECP seems like a bit of an overreaction — though seeing as it is a redirect, in a practical sense who really cares (and, if someone is willing to make 500 useful edits just to be able to restore that content then be blocked, that's pretty worth it, I think!).
In any case, one IP (Dec 11) and one confirmed user (Dec 24) have restored the content after the AfD was closed (Dec 1), so, yeah, let's do indef semi for now. Again, more for the optics / projection of good faith. Perhaps the off-wiki folks will get the hint from that and move on. Feel free to relist or to just contact me personally for an ECP upgrade.

Compound of five cubes

Reason: The history of the article shows a repeated removal of relevant information on the topic of the geometry of the standard 5-cube compound, specifically regarding its relationship of icosahedral symmetry to octahedral symmetry through the pyritohedral symmetry that links the symmetry groups (illustrated with an octahedrally symmetric 5-cube compound). The removal of that information seems to be vandalism based on an opinion that the article is required to mention one 5-cube compound only, which isn't something reflected in a number of other articles on compound solids, or even other articles on other specific geometric solids in general. Most articles on similar and related topics include notes of the ways that they connect to geometries that are related to them. The information that is being removed is entirely in keeping with what types of information are maintained in every other similar article. And given what information people may be trying to find by searching for the article (i.e. what symmetric compounds of 5 cubes are known at all), the information obviously isn't something that should be absent. There also isn't currently any general-purpose article dedicated solely to curating a list of symmetric 5-cube compounds. Most likely, such a list should be included in this article, though, since the article is there to provide information on what a compound of 5 cubes is (hence the article's title not actually being "regular compound of 5 cubes" specifically). Also, even taking the article to be focused on the regular compound of 5 cubes, the information that has been removed a few times is relevant information on what symmetric transformations the regular 5-cube compound can undergo. The information that has been removed is information that relates directly to the article, whether it is taken as specific or general. And the reasons for its removal are vandalism clearly based on personal opinion, rather than on the article being kept informative.

The vandalism isn't extremely frequent, but has happened enough to be of concern to the article's integrity. Maybe there is a better solution. But renaming the article to "regular compound of 5 cubes" to focus only on one example would not be in keeping with the rest of the articles on compound solids, and creating a separate article to list symmetric compounds of 5 cubes doesn't seem needed, especially because the two would link to each anyway and heavily overlap in contents, and would realistically need to be merged in the end anyway. So protection for the information included seems the best way to keep the article as helpfully informative as it ought to be. 74.106.20.33 (talk) 08:56, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
