Ramadan

Semi-protection: Increased level of IP vandalism. Especially with this Muslim month of fasting coming up soon on May 16, I think a 6 week semi-protection is the best way to deal with this and preempt the obvious. Debresser (talk) 17:29, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Mike Warnke

Indefinite semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Anons and new editors have been adding unsourced content here and have removed referenced content for years. It's not frequent, but it is expected. Not likely to have any major changes to the biography so full protection is not unreasonable. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:09, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Oj, svijetla majska zoro

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent disruptive editing – The page seems to be subject to disruptive editing that borderlines vandalism. IP has clearly broken 3RR and other new editors have removed substential amounts of content without explanation. To me it looks like this is some kind of feud between different groups of people. I am not necessarily endorsing the current version, which seems to have some flaws, but these actions are not going to lead to a better article. wikitigresito (talk) 21:58, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

2018 UEFA Champions League Final

Semi-protection for a month: It is expected a high level of IP vandalism and live updates, not regarding the official source stats update, surrounding the final (especially since Real Madrid / Ronaldo are involved). A similar measure was adopted for 2017–18 UEFA Champions League. The final will be played on May 26, so a month is just enough. The Replicator (talk) 21:03, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Reference removal and addition of poorly sourced information by one user. Garretka (talk) 18:09, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Declined A single user should be reasoned with or reported to AIV if required, semi-protection wouldn't stop them anyway, the dispute isn't severe enough for full-protection, and there's several constructive IP contributions too. Vanamonde (talk) 12:47, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

History of Gilgit-Baltistan

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – The page was fully protected until today and the content war has ensued again after it was automatically unprotected. Maybe a longer duration full protection would help reach the consensus. Adamgerber80 (talk) 06:15, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

I think permanent semi-protection is what is needed because the IP's are running a havoc over there. They are also abusive. The discussion was proceeding fine until they showed up. -- Kautilya3 (talk) 07:29, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
We need full Protection to protect the page from POV pushers and meat puppetry. The actual WP:STATUSQUO is at 04:19, 2 May 2018‎. That edit removed the contentious text which was being discussed on the talk page and that is policy, WP:NOCON. Kautilya3 (strangely early for his usual time) has now stepped in and in principle accepted removal of contentious content, but has decided to muddy the waters by turning the time turner backwards and calling a completely earlier version the STATUSQUO so that content which no one - not even Kautilya3 had any problems with earlier. Although he will definitely make a show of rejecting it now on the talkpage, perhaps to bargain. Page protectors should check the page history and talkpage history and decide whats right. If an anonymous IP editor like me can see it, so can you.This seems like a drama to me. This is not Kautilya3's usual timing of activity, and all the usual tag teamers MBlaze Lightning, Capitals00, D4iNa4 and Adamgerber80 and that disruptive abusive IP 122.173.10.214 (from India, per geolocation) suggests this is a coordinated drama to get the page protected according to this WP:CABAL's version.--182.187.98.199 (talk) 07:47, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
Note: I've applied semi due to the disruptive IPs, without prejudice to any other admin applying full protection if they think it's necessary. If y'all want to edit-war, log in with your account so we can properly ban you. -- zzuuzz (talk) 07:55, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – There is a dispute right now regarding if this article should exist. I'd revert to status quo (can't tell which one it is right now), but I want to be cautious as I am involved. I request an admin protect it until the matter is resolved. Callmemirela 🍁 talk 20:42, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Declined Normally I would protect, as there are multiple extended-confirmed users involved, but this article is very new and folks are questioning whether it should exist in the first place. Tell whomever to bring it to AfD. I see some are saying that isn't needed, but clearly it is. If edit warring continues please request again or ping me and I'll protect. — MusikAnimal talk 02:46, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent deletion or substitution of image of current PM. This arose from this news report, on 26 April, but Google have now sorted this out, as a Google search for "India's first prime minister" now returns Jawaharlal Nehru. However, multiple IPs (and some autoconfirmed editors) are trying to solve the now non-existent problem, by deleting or substituting the image. - Arjayay (talk) 12:13, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

Support This has become a real issue with numerous edits. Even when the page was under semi-protection there were a few edits requests but were dealt with.

Battle of Puebla

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism on this article has picked up lately (it always does around this time of the year, due to Cinco de Mayo); we are currently at 7 apparently unrelated vandals (and no constructive IP edits) since May 1, and historically the unconstructive editing peaks on May 5/6. This page has been semi-protected several times before, always around this time of year; last year (when it wasn't protected) we actually got some constructive IP action in addition to the vandalism [otherwise I'd have been quicker to request PP this year], but this year's trend has been less encouraging. A short semi expiring in no more than a week should be sufficient. Sideways713 (talk) 15:20, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

Identical pages DJ JY, DJ JY (rapper), and Johnathan Yesson have collectively been deleted 13 times and all SALTed. DJ JY (artist) was created and speedily deleted as an attempt to evade the SALT.

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – currently has vandalism : "Because pages in user space that end in ".js" and ".css" are only editable by the user the user space belongs to and administrators, this will protect your user page from further vandalism.". Z75SG61Ilunqpdb (talk) 00:12, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

Not done @Z75SG61Ilunqpdb: it's not clear what you want done, as the page is already semi-protected. As a policy page, it's not likely to be unprotected any time soon, but if you have suggestions for improving or fixing the page, place the template {{edit semi-protected}} on the talk page along with your suggested edit. clpo13(talk) 22:09, 4 May 2018 (UTC)

hoodie

Semi-protection: Sadly my contributions seem to be a magnet for wikistalkers, and I have multiple wikistalkers who continue to wikistalk my contributions, after they have been indefinitely blocked. One of them may be wikihounding my contributions here. Without regard to whether this is the work of an indefinitely blocked sockpuppet, or a currently active contributor, dipping into sockpuppetry, I don't think there is any question these edits are not genuinely intended to improve the wikipedia.

  1. [3] I added three sentences to hoodie, backed up by what I regard as a high quality reference.
  2. [4] 2607:FEA8:2D1F:FA39:8C51:1293:69D3:6FFA reverted my new material with the edit summary "Poor quality source and too much weight bring put on a barely related topic. This is about a article of clothing not a court case."
  3. [5] I offered a long rebuttal to the wikistalker's questionable edit summary on talk:hoodie
  4. [6] I restored my new material
  5. [7] 2607:FEA8:2D1F:FA39:8C51:1293:69D3:6FFA reverted my edit.

The page should remain EC protected. There have been extreme BLP violations (rev-deleted) over an extended period of time (not "a few weeks") and the IP requesting this is a troll who had edits oversighted prior to making this request.--Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 20:34, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

I do not see much of a reason to why a disambiguation page will be highly edited, and most of the good edits on the page are just house keeping edits. Rarely are there any additional things added to this article page that acts like a disambiguation page. Most of the good edits are done by users and rarely done by IP addresses. It can be clearly seen that the editing activity on the page is only alive due to the IP vandalism and users reverting the vandals edits. The vandalism date back to 2016 or maybe even beyond. A majority of the Vandalism refers to the slang term use of Dong as a joke, one of the many examples (https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Dong&oldid=835804212). For this reason I am asking for indefinite as the time limit for the page protection. Aceing_Winter_Snows_Harsh_Cold (talk) 06:38, 8 May 2018 (UTC)

Full protection: Inappropriate use of user talk page while blocked. KingAndGod 09:10, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

Note: I'm disinclined to do this one. No need for the messages of support, but given the numerous AfC reviews, there are numerous new editors who have posted not knowing, which are then dealt with by talk-page watchers. That seems useful. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 15:25, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
Declined – We do not normally protect user talk pages, even for blocked users, unless there is severe, persistent vandalism, and even then only temporarily and usually semi-protection: see WP:PP#User talk pages. That aside, I do not see it as necessarily disruptive to leave a message of lamentation for blocked users; it is done fairly commonly if the editor had a long history here.

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page was recently temporarily protected due to an IP switching vandal who keeps targeting the "Most recent election predictions" section, introducing incorrect information.

These edits, like all of their others, are not factually correct. Both of those edits have been reverted.

Daniel Ashley Holliday

Creation Protection: Page has been created, and deleted, twice. In the most recent incarnation of this autobiography, it was sourced to a LinkedIn profile of the supposed subject in which the subject claims to be the supreme commander of UN space commandos or something [27]; it's doubtful, therefore, this will ever be a legitimate entry. Further, the creator has engaged in legal threats on the article's Talk page and has uploaded detailed and unredacted passport scans of some person (possibly, but not assuredly, the creator) to the Commons [28] which he/she has then been posting to the WP page. Allowing this page's continuing creation will be a debilitating experience for editors attempting to CSD it as they are threatened with libel lawsuits by "United Nations Space Command". It may also be putting the owner of the passport at personal risk of identity theft should the creator continue to upload it to Commons and then link it to the WP page. While it's possible this may simply be the creation of an individual going through an emotional crisis, it seems more likely it is being used as part of a complex, multi-site harassment against a real individual by a person feigning to be him online.

Liberal bias in academia

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring while a page move discussion is taking place, particularly in regards to the lead section with several reverts. The lead just seems particularly contentious while the move discussion is going on, since both sides seek to modify the lead to define the scope of the article, and in doing so affect the move discussion. I have posted a notice in hidden wikitext about the lead and directed editors to the talk page, and I'm hoping they heed it without forcing page protection, because there are edits further down the page that are actually working to improve it. Posting here just in case though. Netoholic @ 05:23, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

OTRS got spammed with about 40 tickets about this guy, all with the same message, so someone got upset at something and told people to demand we fix it. I think the copyvios were incidental, since they went back to 2015. There haven't been any edits since I revdel'd nine hours ago, so I'm a solid "meh".

List of songs recorded by Miley Cyrus

Long-term semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry and disruptive editing by a user who has had two accounts (Seguiré sin ti and Aramís Fuster) indefinitely blocked. The page was edited by the latter last November, and since the beginning of this year an IP-hopper with invariably Spanish addresses (the same blocked user, as shown by these diffs: [40][41][42]) has repeatedly attempted to reintroduce an undiscussed, major reconfiguration to the page. The resultant back-and-forth has been ongoing for over four months (flaring up again within the past 70 minutes), during which it has comprised the entirety of the page's edit history, and shows no sign of ending soon.

Note: last time I asked for a page to be protected I was (very reasonably) asked why I hadn't warned the editor and then gone to ANI. I've warned the latest two of these editors, but given the number of throwaway accounts that have been used here I don't see much point in asking for just these two to be blocked, and nor do I see enough similarity between them to start an SPI. But any solution is fine with me, as long as we do something ... . Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 17:36, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – I've seen multiple edit wars quietly going on here for quite some time...as well as other pages such as Corey Stewart.

I think this warrants page protecting the article until June 12th. Wikipedia is not the place to engage in political campaign or edit wars over politics in my opinion. White Shadows One eye watching you 01:07, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – persistent addition of unsourced material. John from Idegon (talk) 20:03, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

Question: @John from Idegon: I'm confused why you would be labeling this as vandalism and edit warring to keep it out when virtually nothing in the article is sourced, including the other entries in that 'Notable places' section, as well as the entirety of the 'Notable people', 'Main highways', 'Education', and 'Geography' sections. There is also information marked as 'citation needed' in other areas of the article. Why haven't you removed all that? Why does this one good faith addition require multiple uses of rollback and protection to keep it off the article? Do we need to read WP:OWN? Fish+Karate 11:48, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
Comment @John from Idegon: IP editor's edits are perfectly valid – basically, he/she links to articles on two other places in the village, both of which are notable unless decided otherwise through AfD. I would say that your edits are disruptive. — kashmīrī TALK 12:53, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

Unprotection: I requested unprotection from Juliancolton, the protecting admin, but it's been 5 days and appears he may be a bit inactive these days. Per that request, this page has been semi'd since 2009, so I thought it might be time to give it a shot at unprotection per the the last bullet point on the rough guide to semi-protection. I welcome discussion if that's needed.--Policy Reformer(c) 23:44, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

We could try unprotecting per that last bullet point, but I wonder if that's wise. After all, this was indef protected in 2009, and that's before the revival of her show. Page views are in the thousands per day. Seems likely vandalism would resume if it were unprotected. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:52, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
I'd suggest that continuing indefinite protection based on the possibility of future vandalism might run against the the third pillar. Additionally, this was never previously semi'd prior to indef. (or it looks like Julian decided to indef. semi based the logs of prior vandalism). It is easy to re-protect it if you're right, but it is hard to get a discouraged constructive anonymous editor to come back and make the edit that they were unable to make due to the protection level. Are pending changes still a thing? Sorry, I've been away a bit. I think it warrants unprotection, but I think PC might be a good compromise if you disagree. Thanks for looking at this. --Policy Reformer(c) 00:00, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
Also, recent page views are consistent with historical averages, as opposed to periods when they've spiked per here.--Policy Reformer(c) 00:03, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) @IAWI: This is unlikely to happen, I'm afraid. You haven't received any "hate and vandalism" on your page: what you have received is automatic notifications from a script that an editor is questioning the encyclopaedic value of articles you created. That happens all the time and is certainly not personal to you. —SerialNumber54129 paranoia /cheap sh*t room 12:45, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Locking the page was an egregiously reflexive overreaction to a run-of-the-mill dispute. It would be unfortunate if the page were locked simply because a prolific editor has come to believe s/he "owns" the page. See here why my edit must be restored now.

Question: @CambridgeBayWeather: Is this an appropriate use of ECP? It looks like an edit war between two new-ish accounts. I would have thought that the appropriate response would be warn followed by block for both of them. If necessary, semi can prevent the war being continued by IPs/new accounts. I would have thought ECP would be necessary only if multiple auto-confirmed accounts are created to continue the edit war. Yaris678 (talk) 12:35, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

I have blocked the paid editor working for the rival campaign until after the June 5 primary election. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 17:20, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
To the patrollers of this page, I don't think Cullen328 intended his comment to mean that the matter is resolved. Some of the most egregious disruption has come from other editors flagrantly violating BLP, most recent examples here and here. It's possible that semi-prot will do the trick now that Cullen has dealt with that one particular editor. I'd be curious to get his take. (I am not watching this page, so please ping me if you want my attention.) --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 06:17, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
Thank you, DrFleischman. I agree that the matter is unresolved. Since I have expressed the opinion that the article should be deleted and have blocked one editor, I think that it is best if another administrator decided on the appropriate level of protection (if any) at this time. Some people already think that I am being heavy handed here. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 06:42, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Krimuk2.0, I did. It was changing dates of birth. You were edit warring over grammar and stylistic choices. Being an FA doesn’t mean it can’t be improved, and to be honest, some of those changes at face value made sense. Don’t edit war. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:48, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
Krimuk2.0, fix ping: oh, you meant that’s why he wanted protection. That IPs already blocked so no need to up it. That’s why I was looking at the recent grammar edit war. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:49, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
TonyBallioni This protection nomination was for the birthdate change (please see the time stamp). Also, did you see my talk page message? If editors who contribute to FAs took every edit at face value, then the article's quality will degrade. Keeping it up to the FA standard is a hard job. It's easy for someone to walk in and pass judgement, but it's a different matter altogether to keep an article's standard intact. Cheers! Krimuk2.0 (talk) 14:54, 26 May 2018 (UTC)

Unprotection: One instance of vandalism does not mean that this needs to be protected, it's the same for his talk page. In Memoriam A.H.H.What, you egg?. 12:13, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

This is not one instance. If you could see some of the revdel'd content on the user talk, you would be aware of why I protected the page. This involves cross-wiki harassment by a troll impersonating a deceased former admin saying particularly vile things on the pages of multiple Wikipedians. Cass was one of the targets. I protected the user page because after what had happened to the talk, I thought it was likely they might try for the main user page if it was protected. Also, User:In Memoriam A.H.H., it is normally best practice to talk with the admin who made the protection before you request here.
All that being said, I'm always open to peer review, and if there is consensus amongst other administrators that the protection should be lowered, I'm fine with someone lowering it. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:54, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

An IP (who is also active on Wiki-DE - and seems to have used till 2015 the username Kaocity), who only modifies this page again and again makes wrong statements, unreferenced claims, ….. we (several persons do notice this vandalism) have (on Wiki-De) basically to revert every single edit by this user. Now, he made again many modification and user:Giraffedata seems to have just approved it …. so , I had to manually go back …. Since it is an IP even a vandalism note - or even contacting him to change behavior is not possible. So, Semi-protection seems the only possibility. DAsia (talk) 04:29, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

Question: Did you ask the protectong admin, Samsara? CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 16:03, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
information Administrator note I'm inclined to approve this request. I'm seeing a lot of reverted edits on that page that aren't obvious vandalism. This is understandable: as a pending changes reviewer, when you see unsourced minor statistical changes that may be subtle vandalism or completely accurate updates, it can be hard to approve such edits in good conscience without looking up the info yourself. It's much easier to just err on the side of caution and revert. Rather than place that burden on our anti-vandalism patrollers, I think we should just unprotect. Statistics are going to be quickly updated on a continuing basis, and the article is going to receive plenty of attention during the hurricane season, so any actual vandalism is going to be quickly rectified. In addition, the volume of edits to that article seems too high for PC to be effective anyways, which wasn't the case when PC was implemented. If there are no hard objections I'll unprotect. Swarm ♠ 00:11, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
I'd second that, Swarm. Samsara hasn't been active in a week, but it's easy enough to switch PC/Semi (back) on if needed. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 17:45, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: High level of IP vandalism which when reverted, just creates an account and logs in under that name. Seems to be just one individual as the text and general thrust is the same. Of note, is that the text inserted is about an ongoing court case where the specifically named individual was also down for contempt of court in the United Kingdom. The IP put this in five days before reporting restrictions were lifted. At least one of the accounts created to add the vandalism (User talk:Wibblywobblywabble ) has been blocked.

In my opinion, the common sense reason for protection should be reason enough. Swarm ♠ 05:51, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
To be fair, it has been semi-protected for its entire existence as a disambiguation page. Before, it was a redirect to the page now titled Mike Hunt (American football). Look at the pre-move history there, and you will see where a lot of the vandalism resided (one would have had to click on the "redirected from Mike Hunt" link, and then edit the redirect, which I can't imagine childish vandals doing). When I made the decision to semi-protect, it was that page where I made the decision from. If the disambiguation page were unprotected, methinks some of that vandalism would now be caught by the dab. That, combined with the fact that the dab is more-or-less complete and there really isn't much need for it to be edited, would lead me to recommend to decline this request. -- Tavix (talk) 15:17, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
Is there a problem leading to a reason to unprotect? Have there been legitimate edit requests from stymied users trying to make constructive edits? If not, I think not.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 15:52, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
I think that is more of a question for Abote2, but since you left it as a child comment to mine, I'll answer. Talk:Mike Hunt does not show any edit requests whatsoever (there is one example of vandalism there that was reverted), and there has been only one edit at all to Mike Hunt since the protection, an edit to reorder one of the entries. -- Tavix (talk) 17:12, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
