Bongcloud Attack

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent disruptive editing by IPs who have so far failed to even attempt a discussion on talk page and are repeatedly inserting WP:OR material. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:01, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Didn't notice this was already here so this is how I was about to request temporary semi-protection at the page: persistent dynamic IP adding an opinionated "erroneously" with no source and no interest in discussion (1,2,3,4) over the last 3 days, despite repeated attempts to engage the user in discussion in edit summaries and user talk warnings (1,2). Possibly a rangeblock is an alternate solution, if the IPs happen to be similar enough that this wouldn't have any knock-on effects. — Bilorv (talk) 20:26, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. 1. d4 d5 2. Kd2! Kd7!! 1/2-1/2 (Carlsen-Nakamura 2021) was unironically one of the best games I've had the pleasure to watch live. — UwU wug's this? 21:00, 1 April 2021 (UTC)

Now, another IP, geolocating to the same place in Italy, is disruptively adding unsourced information to this article, which is about the political party formed by Anton Drexler.

  • (Non-administrator comment) @10mmsocket: I'm not an IP sock (isn't that what WP:SPI is for anyway) you really need to slow down review diffs and excersise more care when employing semi-automated tools, anyway I've given up on that page presumably you'll realize your error soon enough, but please don't spread disruption to other pages I'd rather not see you blocked. Anyway I don't think this needs protection yet. Cheers, 2A03:F80:32:194:71:227:81:1 (talk) 18:43, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
  • (Non-administrator comment) Would recommend both editors be reminded of policies against edit warring, since the issue is clearly a content dispute, just by looking at the horrendous edit history as of recent, where both editors were actively engaged in an edit war, one using semi-automated tools to gain an advantage. EggRoll97 (talk) 08:43, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
    • (Non-administrator comment) @EggRoll97: what's funny about this one is I actually jumped in to revert a blocked editor's contributions. So here's 10mmsocket's (not pinging because I'd rather not deal with more spurious harassment claims) edit and there's me making the same edit two minutes later here. Things only get weird because then 10mmsocket reverts me. It's still a whatever at that point, RCPers tripping over each other or occasionally misclicking happens. I long ago lost track of the number of times I've been accidentally reported to AIV. Anyway, so I restore the original version here but unfortunately 10mm apparently no longer even bothers to check diffs when reverting. Even my attempt to keep things good natured here was reverted using twinkle's vandalism rollback function, they also broke an unrelated page I had just fixed because "must revert everything this bad person has done without looking" I can't wait until they discover massrollback.js. Anyway, In years past when I had more energy that probably would've led to an ANI so someone could hammer into them the need to WP:ENGAGE and focus on accuracy rather than speed when doing RCP, but these days I just can't seem to muster the energy anymore. Either they'll recalibrate on their own or they'll eventually cause enough disruption to be blocked, but either way someone else will have to deal with it. I'll be off this IP address forever in less than 24 hours anyway and I fully expect to enjoy a nice long wiki-break. 2A03:F80:32:194:71:227:81:1 (talk) 15:24, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: I think this page needs indefinite semi-protection because it is insanely controversial. It’s been vandalised far too many times to count. Although I understand why the vandals are doing it, and am opposed to animal testing myself, vandalising this page is not the way. It’s disruptive. Can someone please protect this page?

36.68.161.33 Admin action was taken in the user talkpage and this is not a single editor. This kind of disruption/vandalism happens every alternate week.  Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe  13:30, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
This user needs to see the page history. Argument that there is "kind of disruption/vandalism happens every alternate week" is wrong. It doesn't believe that the vandalism is predominantly conducted by a single user, which it can be resolved in ANI, ANEW, or AIV. Aside from that, most edits from "every alternate week" is good faith. 116.206.35.25 (talk) 14:13, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
This is a big issue regarding the article. Literally very big. And disruption is being done by multiple user for more than 6 months. But, unable to stop them by the current protection level. If it was a single user and a single disruption, I would have gone to AIV/ANI (Btw, this matter was reported in ANI few months back). So, I don't think there's any other way to stop these.  Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe  16:22, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Natalya Semper

  • Natalya Semper (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
  • Semi-protection. For several months now, a constantly changing set of IPs have attempted to add a list about something called "Nelly Semper productions" to the end of this article (see e.g. this diff. [19]). I'm not sure whether it is patent nonsense or not, but it clearly doesn't belong on this page (the supposed company was founded in the USA when Natalya Semper was 3 years old). The IP has been banned several times, but it keeps changing. The IP never responds to contact on their talk page. Since this is a persistent vandal, I think some level of semi-protection would be the best course of action - I can't keep fixing the page every week. Furius (talk) 22:50, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: this page is constantly vandalised by IP addresses. Have a look at the edit history and see. Pending changes protection won’t work in this case, since then someone would still have to revert the pending vandalism edits— there will be a lot of them, and that will be extra work for editors. If we use semi-protection, the IPs will be unable to do anything and we good-faith editors can lend our services elsewhere. HelenDegenerate (talk) 15:34, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Unfortunately, vandalism on articles (especially significant articles) is just something that happens on an open-edit-access encyclopedia. Short of protecting almost every article, which is against Wikipedia's mission, there isn't a whole lot we can do besides just revert the occasional vandal edit. If you find yourself regularly reverting vandalism on Wikipedia, consider requesting the rollback tool to give you a one-click method to revert vandalism. Good luck!

Temporary move protection: Page title dispute/move warring – Per the result of a proposal during a move discussion, there is a consensus to establish a moratorium on moving the page for one year in the absence of significant additional information. The page has been moved twice since the first move discussion that established the current title closed back in June 2020, and I see this as a useful preventative measure. The talk page has also been moved three times in that period (one of the moves only moved the talk page).

Temporary semi-protection: Davis was recently employed as the head coach for the North Carolina Tar Heels. I was caution about it at first, because many of the IPs were constructive or editing in good faith. However, there has been a recent flurry of both IP and new account vandalism. Some editors are conveying misinformation or hackneyed parlaying of (semi-)genuine information.

As well, too many edits recently have focused on Davis, a black man, being married to a white wife and having biracial children. The race-related discourse parlayed by the likewise edits comes off, to me at least, as awkward. Mungo Kitsch (talk) 05:37, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Same full protected edit request for two pages

I am posting this edit request here since the talk page of full protected page Wikipedia:General sanctions/Gamergate/Requests for enforcement redirects to Wikipedia talk:General sanctions/Gamergate, which is also under full protection.

The pages have Lint errors as can be seen here and here.

Both pages have the exact same part with wrong markup that is causing the Lint errors. This is the part present in both pages that is causing errors - <center><font : size=5>The community general sanctions on this topic area were superseded by [[WP:ACDS|Arbitration Committee discretionary sanctions]]. No further edits should be made to this page.<p> '''All enforcement requests should go to [[WP:AE|the arbitration enforcement noticeboard]]'''.</font></center>

Here the obsolete html <center> and <font> tags are used (see this for details) and the <p> tag is not closed. To get the same display without errors, please replace the above part with the following for both pages - <div style="text-align:center; font-size:x-large;">The community general sanctions on this topic area were superseded by [[WP:ACDS|Arbitration Committee discretionary sanctions]]. No further edits should be made to this page.<p> '''All enforcement requests should go to [[WP:AE|the arbitration enforcement noticeboard]]'''</p>.</div>

Draft:Vaush

Indefinite semi-protection: BLP policy violations – (This may not be the most appropriate place to ask, so forgive me if it isn't.) Vaush is a slightly popular, but incredibly controversial, political YouTuber and streamer. He is hated quite a lot, and his Wikipedia page is guaranteed to be a target once it's moved into mainspace. This is a preemptive request to have editing protections placed on it, because I would like it protected before it's moved. I've no doubt that there will be a lot of vandalism on the article by touting accusations of pedophilia, racism, sexism, etc. as factual. Protections aren't normally given unless articles have recent events of vandalism, but I believe that this is an extra-unordinary circumstance that warrants protection. Thank you. SWinxy (talk) 04:09, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

If you would like to review the draft, please have a look at WP:AFC/P. Else, feel free to submit the draft for review. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 07:12, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. I'd agree with pending changes protection for the first week as the policy explicitly mentions "media attention" as a possible justification and it doesn't prevent helpful contributions, but that can't be set up in the Draft namespace. If you're going to move the page to mainspace despite the "strong caution" at WP:AFC/P, feel free to tell me when exactly that will happen, and I'll pending-changes protect the article for a week after the move. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 07:12, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Comment: You request can be declined, because there is no vandalism or distruptive edits by IP/unregistered or new users by months.

Declined. Honestly, I'm not even seeing enough disruption even for a semi, let alone ECP. Also, this would be a WP:GS/COVID19 action rather than an AE one. El_C 18:40, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
I also warn RandomCanadian please don't make preemptive request for semi or ECP protection of any article unless there are indication of vandalism or distruptive edits, since it would be unhelpful. 182.1.60.219 (talk) 20:17, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
What kind of IP from Indonesia (where it's currently 3 AM) makes their first edit (if I've got the range right, Special:Contributions/182.1.60.0/24, there's no edit in nearly a year) to harass me? We all make mistakes (or maybe are a bit too cynical), that's not a reason to warn me on top of what's said by El_C. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:26, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Not done. Since semi-protection was applied, I see one page blanking and one addition of a bad category, both of which resulted in a block for the offender. The other reverts were all straightforward content disputes. – bradv🍁 19:50, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. It has attracted vandalism already but it’s a bit of a leap to jump to indefinite protection for an article that’s just a few hours old. Let’s see how it goes, we can extend protection if disruption resumes after it expires. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 00:10, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

Oshwah; IMO it doesn't; unfortunately. I removed the term on the first sentence referring it as the Windsor Lines; as the attached cite was a blog entry. Would prefer if an RfC on the WP:LT or WP:UKT wikiprojects be set up in lieu of redirects. Nightfury 10:44, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Alison Collins

Unprotection: I have attempted to discuss with El C on Alison Collins talk page. I did not receive a favorable reply. Requesting removal of protection regarding Alison Collins Removal of Temporary Semi-protection: Requester of temporary semi-protection made several false claims in order to dupe an editor El C to grant temporary semi-protection for 60 days. Requester of temporary semi-protection made false claims that edits are editorializations. The edits are not editorializations. They are fully supported and cited by a wide number of unbiased news sources. Second claim by requester, BriefEdits, "Lots of anonymous and shifting IP edits makes it difficult to debate over content issues and neutrality let alone basic manual of style upkeeping." That claim is false and misleading. There is only one editor he is referring to that has an anonymous IP, and that is me. However, my IP is static and has been for all the edits I've made to the article. I have seen on several occasions that BriefEdits uses the practice of deleting other editor's edits to this article, dubiously claiming NPOV, and then paradoxically, BriefEdits introduces NPOV content as a replacement for the deleted edits. BriefEdits makes also a false claim that it is difficult to debate over content issues, neutrality, manual of style upkeeping. That is not true either. BriefEdits and I have engaged in discussion on numerous talk pages. My guess is by BriefEdits requesting semi-protection for an article, he or she intends to lock out any competing edit from any other editor that may offer useful contribution for an unreasonable long time for a lock out of 60 days. Perhaps shorten the lock to a week or remove it entirely. The article continues to suffer from vagueness and lack of clarity due to a low number of unique contributors. By lifting the lock now, the article has a chance to be improved by willing contributors, including by BriefEdits, instead of having to wait 60 days for the article to languish in usefulness due to lack of improvement.

List of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated episodes

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of hoax material by an IP-hopping user. In fact, a cursory glance at his edit history (on all of his IPs) shows that this same user has been attacking multiple pages in a similar fashion; this is the page I happen to have watchlisted, and I wasn't sure where else to turn to ask for help because it's been ongoing for at least a week and I'm not the only one involved. He's been warned about vandalism and adding hoax material, and every time he's warned about it, he just leaves some snide response and then changes his IP and gets back at it again. I'm pretty sure it's the same user because it's an IPv6 address and the first four chunks of the eight are exactly the same every time. If this isn't the correct place to bring this up, let me know where to turn and I'll go there instead, and if I need to be sanctioned for edit warring, so be it.

@Oshwah, what made this unsuitable for semi? There was more vandalism than the IP in a short time range. aeschyIus (talk) 19:47, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
AeschyIus - If I remember correctly, the accounts were already blocked and the IP user was the only one that was currently vandalizing the article, so I went and blocked that user. I figured that this was the best solution - just block the user. It looks like no further vandalism has happened since. If this changes, let me know and I'll be happy to protect the article. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 19:51, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Jennifer Connelly

semi-protect or pending changes I want to request again an increase in the protection of the article. The previous level of protection expired recently. There is still the issue of IPs adding "Space Age Love Song" to the music clips Connelly starred in (as I pointed out in my previous request, there is a video in YouTube with footage of the film Career Opportunities featuring that particular song. It is not the official video clip for "Space Age Love Song", but merely footage containing it.

That being said, the second issue is the replacement of the image used in the infobox. The image that was used after the Good Article Nomination was File:Jennifer Connelly 2010 TIFF.jpg. At some point it was replaced by File:Jennifer Connelly 2012.jpg. Hohum restored the image recently, with the valid point that the image has a far better quality than the 2012 one, and it is not facing away from the body of the article (see quality and Location). Hohum's edit was reversed without any explanation, and he started a discussion on the talk page. I restored again the 2010 picture, but my edit was reverted by a dynamic IP without any particular reason.

I recommend that the article is granted semi-protection indefinitely, since the subject happens to be a pretty prominent actress. Due to the fact that there are two videos featuring the footage of Career Opportunities (one which has garnered 8 million views, and the other 18 million), I think that it would be more than expected that we'll pretty much will have to revert the edits constantly otherwise. As for the picture, I don't know exactly why there is a fixation with using the 2012 one, but Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Images clearly makes the 2010 picture the most appropriate one to be used.--GDuwenHoller! 18:32, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

@El C: thank you for letting me know about the pinging. I would not characterise this as a content dispute for two reasons. The IP disruptive editing on this article has been long-term and of the same nature, and secondly the most recent change has made use of two different misleading edit summaries. Citobun (talk) 11:54, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Citobun, longstanding or not, I didn't pick up on the IP's edits being disruptive. Feel free to elaborate on why you assert this to be so. El_C 11:59, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
The article has a history of IPs, on many occasions, making edits that solely serve to discredit the subject of the article. In Hong Kong, any news media that doesn't regurgitate the government's viewpoint (even the government-owned RTHK) is subject to this type of targeted harassment. The latest edit seemed to be in the same vein – the edits remove context for no particular reason, the result of which is that the subject of the article looks untrustworthy. And the edit summaries are misleading. Thanks. Citobun (talk) 12:08, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Citobun, RE: "on many occasions" — I'm happy to examine diffs of note, so by all means, feel free to compile a few of these (prioritizing recent and/or egregious ones). But that latest edit, though questionable, doesn't seem to rise to the level of disruption, not to mention harassment (who is being harassed?). Again, if you're able to establish a pattern of similarly questionable edits, long-term protection might indeed be due. El_C 12:19, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
@El C: Thank you for offering to take a look. By "harassment" I refer to the type of hostility directed toward Hong Kong media outlets such as Apple Daily, RTHK, and Epoch Times by pro-government entities (e.g. destruction or obstruction at the printing presses, protests at newsrooms, doxxing of journalists, etc.). Hong Kong Free Press has been subject to similar hostility although less intensely as it is an English-language source and is thus more peripheral within Hong Kong society.
Here is a quick overview of what I am talking about:
  • [60] – vandalism-like edit asserting the news outlet is "white colonist propaganda"
  • [61] – periodically the IPs say the article is biased, which is fine. But the content being blanked is cited to a reliable source and does not strike me as biased.
  • [62] – "They are noted for their condonation of [pro-democracy] protesters' terrorist-like tactics"
  • [63] – "fake news"
  • [64], [65] – there have been personal attacks against the founder of Hong Kong Free Press (Tom Grundy), with IPs alleging that he edits the Wikipedia page
  • [66] – "US-funded", "biased [against] Mainland China", "full of bullshit and propaganda"
  • [67] – this user is using Grundy's online handle. Not sure if this is the source of the above accusation that Grundy edits the Wikipedia page. The edit attacks the news outlet for being "anti-China".
Basically Hong Kong news outlets which do not have a pro-government slant tend to attract vitriolic accusations that they are "anti-China", which is illustrated by some of the diffs above. And since this has been going on for years, I wish the page were considered for protection. Thank you. Citobun (talk) 13:07, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Pending-changes protected indefinitely. Citobun, the fact is that the page just isn't edited that actively (zero edits last month, for example), so it isn't really a candidate for semiprotection at this time. Anyway, let's see if pc will do the trick. El_C 13:14, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
@El C: Thank you very much! Citobun (talk) 13:18, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

Unprotection: I do not see any reason for this to be indefinitely fully protected, it was protected as being seemingly "high risk", but it is not high risk whatsoever. There were a couple instances of vandalism, but nothing to justify anything above semi-protection or anything indefinite. The protecting admin is no longer a sysop. Dylsss(talk contribs) 14:43, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Note: Dylsss, it doesn't matter that Guy (ping) is no longer a sysop —which happened voluntarily and not under a cloud, I'd stress— he is still owed that courtesy. El_C 13:48, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
I was stating that the user is not currently an administrator, which is why I came to this page first, because it is not currently possible for them to lower the protection. The instructions at the top of this page say If for any reason he or she is unresponsive, unwilling, or unable to lower protection then you may list your request on this page., the user is unable to lower the protection, and the header above refers to discussing with the protecting admin, but as I state, the user is not currently admin. I did not mean to suggest that the user lost their admin bit involuntarily or under a cloud. Dylsss(talk contribs) 13:59, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Dylsss, I'm just saying that seeking Guy's input on this would have been the intuitive —and courteous— way to go. But it isn't a big deal and I certainly didn't infer you wishing to intentionally diminish or besmirch him in any way (whatsoever). El_C 14:09, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

List of contemporary Muslim scholars of Islam

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – I've been removing the entries of non-notable individuals from this page along with other editors for the past couple of months. These entries are mostly added by their admirers who believe their comrades are Islamic scholars and should be included within the list. These non-notable "scholars" are kicked out of the page almost every time by other editors. This is waste of time and energy. In my humble opinion, this list should only be updated by experienced editors because they are familiar with notability guidelines and because there is in fact not many contemporary Muslim scholars to add to the list. Besides, there is an option for “extended confirmed protected edit request” through which IPs, single-purpose editors, or new editors can make a request to add someone to the list.

If extended confirmed protection cannot be applied, then place indefinite semi-protection as it had this level before full protection was applied. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 00:53, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

I prefer indefinite semi-protection over you request, but unless there is an distruptive activity of IPs or users regarding the article (for example vandalism), pages cannot be protected preemptively per WP:NOPREEMPT for any levels. I have a question, when the article first giving a protection? 182.1.6.250 (talk) 01:01, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Josué Pesqueira

I would like to place partial protection on the page of Josué Pesqueira for the coming months in order to prevent vandalism. Although there has been no problem with this lately, but after I edited the page there were editorial wars between unregistered users, I was not active lately and only after I came back did I see everything being done. It is better to note that I have removed the paragraph on which the whole debate was, and I am currently seeking to place a partial demonstration in order to prevent repeated wars between unregistered users in the coming months. I would be happy if my request is answered in the affirmative, thank you very much Assaf - talk 09:38, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Question: Did you see any evidence in vandalism? I believe this article cannot be protected preemptively and only be invoked if there are more persistent distruptive activity by users. 36.77.94.72 (talk) 08:09, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
There hasn't been much corruption on the page lately, but after I downloaded the "style of play" paragraph, because there was an editorial war on that paragraph, an editor who repeated the edit again without knowledge of the subject. I anticipate that in the near future there will be more corruptions from unregistered editors, so I seek to protect the page. Assaf - talk 13:05, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: IPs continually change "soccer" to "football". Given this person's fame and global standing, I don't see this ending any time soon. Temporary protection will simply delay the inevitable continuation of the vandalism. Anwegmann (talk) 18:42, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Declined. Anwegmann, I don't think this is vandalism but a genuine good faith error. On Wikipedia, for the most part, football is used in preference to soccer.

Indefinite semi-protection: Has been temporarily semi-protected, but the vandals started back up once it was unprotected again. Protecting temporarily doesn't work when there's this many POV-pushers. - Sumanuil (talk) 21:54, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. The article has only been unprotected for about a day and, in that time, there's just been one instance of vandalism which was almost instantly undone (thank you). While this may warrant reprotecting in the near future - maybe the very near future - to go from one-week semi to indefinite full over one instance of vandalism is like punishing a speeder with an $80 ticket on the first offense, and a public beheading on the second.

@CambridgeBayWeather: ECP may not be useful as there are editors who can still vandalize the page as they are more of adding content that are not in accordance to WP:NPOV.

Criticism of Sikhism

Semi-protection: Persistent POV editing avoiding attempts to build consensus – by what is likely multiple IP socks of a single registered account "Mawlidman". I previously requested semi-protection for this page last September and was granted pending-changes protection, though editor waits for strategically long intervals to furtively reinstate edit (this has possibly been happening through IPs for years, not months) and has succeeded in being accepted by an unaware editor. Has consistently refuses talk discussion of proposed edit despite multiple requests by multiple users and now engages in personal attacks. Semi-protection would at least neutralize IP socks completely. Sapedder (talk) 11:48, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
