Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP persistent addition of unsourced changes despite multiple warnings. - FlightTime (open channel) 23:39, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
- Declined - This isn't a situation where we should protect the article in order to address the underlying problems. We need to talk to the user about their edits and work with them so that they stop. If the user doesn't stop after being repeatedly asked to, we can take action for repeated disruptive editing. Protecting the article due to substandard but good faith edits by only one person isn't proper use of the tool here. Do you need my help with talking to the user and working with them to improve? ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 00:11, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- @Oshwah: Ok, but they have been warned many times. Thanx for your time, its always appreciated. - FlightTime (open channel) 00:13, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

- @Oshwah: K, thank you. I was just trying to stay away from 3rr :P - FlightTime (open channel) 00:21, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- FlightTime - Ohhh yeahhhh... that good ole' 3RR stuff... I understand, and you did the right thing by taking a different avenue to get help rather than edit war :-). It would be nice if other editors would do that..... lol. I'm about halfway done with the message I'm writing and it should be added to the user's talk page shortly :-). ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 00:25, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- FlightTime - The deed has been done ;-). Let me know if I can help with anything else and I'll be happy to so. Hopefully this will help things to settle down. Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 00:33, 1 September 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: All recent edits are vandalism and reversion of it. Indefinite semi-protection would be favourable to prevent wasting people's time. JACKINTHEBOX • TALK 14:26, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
- Semi-protected indefinitely. Gonna be bold here and apply an indef semi. I usually consult the protecting admin (in this case, Bongwarrior) if I am changing protection level, but I agree that if ~99% of the edits are consistently destructive, it might not be worth the time spent on PC.

Temporary semi-protection: Sockpuppetry – Article has been the subject of edit-warring by Noramiao, who has been reverted by numerous editors and is now the subject of a report at WP:AN3. In the past half and hour Allylyric has been created and 2 of the 3 edits made by this account have been to revert to Noramiao's version of the page so this looks to be sockpuppetry.

Semi-protection: IP edit-warring to remove sourced material and replace with unsourced material about a BLP, which in the case of the first article is a copyright violation anyway, because it's just copied and pasted from the article.

Extended confirmed protection OR Semi-protection: Vandalism prevention. I have no idea why this page is lacking ANY protection, and it's left it wide-open for abuse. Considering the sheer number of scandals that have happened as of late, it's only a matter of time before this page gets hammered. I would prefer ECP as per six months ago, but this page's edit history has shown that edits are very uncommon as of late, which I find to be rather odd. But, until the presidency is over, I think that some kind of protection - even semi-protected - is warranted. The Legacy (talk) 06:46, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
- Disregard. I was a doofus, and had opened up https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump by mistake. My apologies. However, that said, it may be worth reviewing the simple version's edit protection. The Legacy (talk) 07:00, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

- Done I fully protected TempleOS for three days, that should be enough to figure out whether Davis is alive or dead. We did not protect pages preemptively, and I did not protect Terry_Davis but if there is disruption at other articles you are more than welcome to report it here.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:49, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. So many unnecessary edits by IP addresses like writing incorrect dates and adding information like for example "the commercial was edited on talk like a pirate day of 2000" one IP address edited the article and added a commercial called "A Tisket A Tasket" and the commercial never existed and this is a form of disruptive editing. Luckily I am taking action and fixing incorrect dates and removing information that doesn't need to be there. To the person reading this, if you don't believe what i'm saying is true then take a look at the revision history of the article and preview some of the edits done by IP addresses.

Ben5218 (talk) 11:43, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
- I am afraid this is content dispute. The piece have been there for some time (in fact once restored by Drmies), and removed by another IP), it is reliably sourced, and the IP started talk page discussion which nobody cared to continue. If the piece is not appropriate I believe it should be established at the talk page first.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:59, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. 84.48.208.98 (talk) 15:02, 3 September 2018 (UTC) Article subjected to Persistent biased editing. Óli Gneisti only wants information about Icelandic glima, and not all of glima. This person seems to have limited knowledge of Icelandic glima, and refuses to acknowledge expert input in this field. Also on glima Talk, this person removes relevant information that backs up information about glima page, and places the information in a less obvious place.
- This user seems to be confused by changes made by PaleoNeonate who tried to clean-up the talk page after 84.48.208.98 added his replies all over the Talk page instead of replying to the topics where they were. 84.48.208.98 also removed topic headings and rearranged the talk page. Finally, 84.48.208.98 misrepresents my views. I have again and again said that I have no problem with non-Icelandic forms of Glíma being covered in the article, I just have a problem with dubious sources and uncited claims.--Óli Gneisti (talk) 20:05, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

- @Ritchie333: Both options remain available to administrators' discretion, but standard practice for salting seems to have shifted towards ECP; WP:SALT now says that administrators should choose the protection level based on what is "appropriate", Twinkle defaults to ECP for salting, and ECP salting appears to be common practice these days according to my impressions from keeping an eye on User:MusikBot/ECPMonitor/Report. To cite a recent example, an unintended consequence of indef full protection can be seen at Rush Hour 4, a title that was salted during the release week of Rush Hour 3 in August 2007, in response to what ended up being very short-lived hype. While it was eventually converted to a redirect, it inherited the indef full protection all the way to August 2018, when it prevented an established editor from updating the redirect, and they came here to request unprotection, where they were initially met by a skeptical admin who couldn't see the absurdity of the situation, and gave them grief about not going to the protecting administrator. Anyway, just throwing that out there. Swarm ♠ 17:36, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- I used the default ECP figuring if the subject did become notable, a well-established user could recreate it without having to seek unprotection. Auto-confirmed does not work if a determined user with more BEBOLD than experience persists in creating a page than has been interminably recreated and deleted. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 21:32, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

There is a section in here about Christian exclusion, that seems to push at people's buttons. Over the past several months, various users simply deleted the section, without providing valid reasons. Others deleted it with a simple disacknowledgement that discrimination against christians was fiction. Only one user (who actually requested this page be protected last week, still in archive) entered into a content discussion on the talk page, which I refer you too. It is factual, well cited, and supported by those who responded in the RfC section of the talk page. Sllabib (talk) 13:33, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

Unprotection: We should downgrade this page to WP:ECP, like a similar page entitled JaidenAnimations. The Duke of NonsenseWhat is necessary for thee? 21:31, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
- It was originally EC protected by Dlohcierekim, which was overturned by Ritchie333. I think that in general, indef protection and full create-protection are overkill on their own, and combining them definitely is. Would support downgrading. Swarm ♠ 23:13, 31 August 2018 (UTC)
- For the record, I protected it after consensus at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaiden Animations (2nd nomination) was to salt the title as well as delete the article, and after somebody asked me to salt it on my talk page. Or are requests for "salting" now done as ECP instead of full? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:07, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333: Both options remain available to administrators' discretion, but standard practice for salting seems to have shifted towards ECP; WP:SALT now says that administrators should choose the protection level based on what is "appropriate", Twinkle defaults to ECP for salting, and ECP salting appears to be common practice these days according to my impressions from keeping an eye on User:MusikBot/ECPMonitor/Report. To cite a recent example, an unintended consequence of indef full protection can be seen at Rush Hour 4, a title that was salted during the release week of Rush Hour 3 in August 2007, in response to what ended up being very short-lived hype. While it was eventually converted to a redirect, it inherited the indef full protection all the way to August 2018, when it prevented an established editor from updating the redirect, and they came here to request unprotection, where they were initially met by a skeptical admin who couldn't see the absurdity of the situation, and gave them grief about not going to the protecting administrator. Anyway, just throwing that out there. Swarm ♠ 17:36, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- I used the default ECP figuring if the subject did become notable, a well-established user could recreate it without having to seek unprotection. Auto-confirmed does not work if a determined user with more BEBOLD than experience persists in creating a page than has been interminably recreated and deleted. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 21:32, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Basically an IP editor who has an extensive history of warring and clashing with others is attempting to force their changes(Unrounding the ratings) through on the season page. If you were to review their talk page history you'd see why leaving a warning template on this persons page would be a pointless endeavour. They've even had reports on the edit war section which weren't acted upon because they were deemed stale. I could ping in a half dozen editors who have also dealt with this person before into this report but I'll leave you with this example from another show. [[14]] showing the kind of attitude this person has and their inability to discuss with others. Esuka323 (talk) 23:26, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Disruptive editing by User:Footballsaints. User has engaged in overciting, redundant citing, and now continually readding copyvio material that contains mundane quotes. Plandu (talk) 23:31, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
- Plandu was warned about removing sections from pages. Plandu complained about the page not having enough references so the references were added with notes. The page is cited per Wikipedia policy when citing a page on a BLP. The quotes are professional scholarly quotes in regard to the well accomplished professional Gayle Benson. Professional Quotes by Gayle Marie LaJaunie Bird Benson were not edited. Plandu edited the page by removing the entire section. Plandu acted in bad faith and not discuss this on the talk page for Gayle Benson. The neutrality of Plandu is in question. When removing entire sections, Plandu is vandalizing the page. Plandu will not discuss anything on the talk page. This user removes entire sections, complains about a lack of citations and then complains the page is over cited. The page is not over cited. This is a BLP and is cited per Wikipedia policy. Footballsaints (talk) 23:42, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Various IPs on different ranges are making unsourced edits. The pattern of edits is to assert that there are new Fall Brawl and Bash and the Beach events in 2019, and that Extreme Rules and WWE Hell in a Cell are ending this year, all without sources. Hell in a Cell (2018) might not require as much protection as it is approaching soon, so will be actively edited in the run-up and afterwards. Silverfish (talk) 23:32, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent disruptive editing – Because of twitter and instagram postings directed here, and this player having just won the US Open, this article is being flooded with new users changing the lead and other sections. Perhaps it needs full protection from everyone, but I thought ECP for a week would help. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:43, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
- Extended confirmed protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. -- Dlohcierekim (talk) 18:54, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: Unfortunately, the article is still constantly disrupted despite the high level of protection. I fear full protection has become inevitable. The talk page is even worse off. It’s being flooded by protected edit request by single-purpose accounts. Is there a way to temporarily disable the ability to make edit-protected request or else would applying ECP to the talk page be considerable?Tvx1 00:09, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
- I'm watching the talk page of the article, any further editprotected request on the same issue can be reverted on site until it calms down. I think the article itself is ok now ECP is in place. Semi-protection of the talk page is an option if things become really bad (they aren't there yet). Fish+Karate 10:15, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Semi protection Persistent addition of content against consensus. Recently, consensus was reached by editors at [27] that a table should be removed from the article.

Pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – Low-level disruption, mostly possible whitewashing. Lots of reverts in the past few months. Aspening (talk) 17:33, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
- I understand your concern and agree that editing of this article has been problematic. However, there is perhaps not quite a pattern here of whitewashing. Some of the older attempts to edit appear unconnected to those dating this weeks. I do not agree that at this stage it would be appropriate to PC the article. Declined pending changes.

Indefinite semi-protection: Slow but steady IP disruptive editing including very recent examples. The bridge name is the subject of significant regional controversy and many disruptive edits have been related to that. But most importantly, this page has already had two periods of temporary semi-protection this year which solved the problem of disruptive editing - while the semi-protection was in place. Each time the semi-protection has been lifted the IP disruptive editing has started back up again. It is time to add indefinite semi-protection to this page. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Full protection: This page has been subject to near-constant edit warring by multiple parties for over a year. The dispute recent spilled over to WP:ANI#1990'sguy but seems no closer to resolution. I suggested protecting the page in the ANI thread and it was supported by several other editors. I'd do it myself but I'm involved. – Joe (talk) 06:47, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- Note: I had a brief look and will for the time being comment that the reading of the ANI thread seems to be essential here. Without it, I do not see the need to full protect. I might do it myself later (I am not involved in any way), or anybody else is welcome to take the decision.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:20, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- Now I had a look at the ANI as well, and I do not see anything resembling consensus there for full protection (as also noted by the closer, Swarm). I do not think at this point the article would benefit from the full protection, as there is no permanent disruption. I understand that from time to time an edit causes a lot of reaction at the talk page and elsewhere, but I believe 1EE from discretionary sanctions would be a better way to administer this. Leaving this request formally open for some time, but if there is no reaction I (or someone else) will likely close it tomorrow.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:30, 15 September 2018 (UTC)
- I don't think there was a consensus against protection either – it was just tangential to the subject of the thread. My understanding was therefore that any uninvolved administrator could place it at their discretion. However, I do agree a 1RR restriction would be more effective. – Joe (talk) 11:21, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

In the future, I encourage those undoing edits to notify involved editors on their talk pages as to why their edits were reverted (tagging Velella and 2601:188:180:1481:65f5:930c:b0b2:cd63 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)).

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Hi there, requesting 3 week semi-protection of this article to encourage discussion. I believe user Eivinas Maziliauskas is editing while logged-out, since both he and the Italian IP editors are basically making the same edits, adding unsourced dates to the article. Eivinas has been a bit of a pain, taking ownership of the article and reverting changes that bring the article closer to MOS standards.
I've attempted to engage the user in discussion, but he has chose silence. Semi-protection will at least not allow him to edit while logged-out. I'd both block him and semi the article myself, but since I've attempted to discuss various changes with him, I could be considered involved. Hence this bureaucratic request. Thanks!.

Temporary Semi-protection: I am asking for a 1-month semi-protection on the People's Party of Canada, because a user Ottawa11 (talk) persistently changes the article to his favorable choice. I made an edit which is provided by a reliable source and shortly after it is being deleted by the user and then the user adds his preferred method.
I am explaining to the user that it is in the source about Martin Masse being the spokesperson of the party, in the source it says, [42] “(A spokesperson for Bernier's People's Party) said "merger" might not be quite the right word for what's being discussed— it could be something of a takeover of the Libertarian party structure by Bernier. Bernier is continuing the process of gathering signatures and completing the other steps required to obtain official party status, said (his spokesperson Martin Masse).” The proof is there, but he started talking about the merger of two parties in this article, but I took information from the article about who the spokesperson is.
True but you ignored the statement "The People's Party of Canada's platform is still being finalized. " Also see what wikipedia defines as Spokesperson Ottawa11 (talk)
As matter of fact you are not reading the article I provided, if you are not going to read them I suggest please stop edit warring The Smart Mind (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:45, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
No, I read the article but you are still ignoring the talk pages, Wikipedia:Policies and guidelines and the fact that ""The People's Party of Canada's platform is still being finalized." Also the article mentions "PPC members will have an input on specific policies as they are refined," in the article. Please read the sources.Ottawa11 (talk)
Another thing, I used the source of the parties official website, which the party wrote itself about there program, but the user deleted the edit as well. The Smart Mind (talk) 18:36, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent IP disruptive POV editing. - FlightTime (open channel) 13:53, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
- Declined @FlightTime: I have sympathy for your position, but in the absence of any talk page discussion or any details in the edit summary, this looks like a content dispute, and I cannot justify semi-protection. I don't think you want full-protection just yet. Why don't you begin a discussion and see how that goes; if the IPs refuse to discuss the matter, this would look somewhat different. Vanamonde (talk) 17:36, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This page is for a political party. This page has recent but persistent edits that fall under point-of-view, shilling, electioneering, and puffery. In addition, properly sourced material from media outlets has been removed, but material linking back to the political party's website has been added and retained. Particular offenders are users Bluexander and Theboo77. Latter user has noted he is working for the political party that is the subject of the page. Suggest page protection of current objective page version until after September 25 New Brunswick election. Eliza Epp (talk) 14:23, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – In the last few days the page has seen an ever increasing level of disruptive editings been made by anonymous users who have been manipulating data on this page without any sources whatsoever. This poses a threat to the existence of the original undisputed information on this page. REALMMB(talk) 11:09, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
- @Realmmb: This most recent edit seems to correct information based on what the sources say. However, the edit summary of this edit also resembles edit summaries from past IP edits that have been reverted. Also, it looks like at least one autoconfirmed user who had been editing the page has been blocked. Needless to say, I'm confused. Airplaneman ✈ 14:24, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

- @FlightTime: This is because the template is substituted when used, not simply transcluded. I assume substitutions aren't included in the transclusion count.

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – The game's studio had a major closure event yesterday, but has not officially made any statement about the state of this game. Unfortunately a few of our reliable sources have published what they got as inside word this was cancelled, so there's been too many IP/new editors trying to show (in good faith) that, unaware of our sourcing issue here. It is expected more statements will be released by TTG in the week or so, so only temporary full protection is needed (2 weeks most) until we have an official statement.

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – There is currently a discussion underway on the talk page, so page protection shouldn't have to last very long.

Temporary extended confirmed: BLP policy violations – Specifically in response to changes by ZiplineWhy, though there are likely others. power~enwiki (π, ν) 01:48, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
- The allegations made by the New Yorker are independently notable. It's only a BLP issue if we state that Kavanaugh definitely committed the allegations made against him. At least in my post, I did no such thing. (I don't really care one way or another about whether it gets locked, so don't view this as a vote either way.)ZiplineWhy (talk) 02:03, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
- Declined The article is already semi-protected. Extended Confirmed would be an over-reaction to any recent problematic editing. If it looks like we are experiencing a pattern of intentionally disruptive editing then I may reconsider.

Since the creations are infrequent and most likely all by the same person, it would be best if we left this page unsalted and as a honeypot. This way, any future creations can be quickly investigated, evidence collected, and the possible sockpuppet accounts blocked.

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Continued vandalism by troll accounts and anons. Blake Gripling (talk) 04:19, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

- I need to provide a bit of a clarification though: This request is to augment the existing semi-protection as autoconfirmed vandals do still slip through the cracks. ECP may be overkill so I thought maybe having pending protection in place would do. Blake Gripling (talk) 12:39, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
