Reason: Persistent vandalism from unregistered IP users. This has continued for several years now, usually involving replacing Content with a single word or phrase. PerryPerryD (talk) 15:53, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

I forgot to include the protection level that is being requested. Semi-Protection. PerryPerryD (talk) 15:55, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. bibliomaniac15 19:35, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Soviet Union–United States relations

Temporary semi-protection: There is an IP user that has made dozens of edits on this page; they don't seem to be constructive (one of them was reverted by me, the user has reverted their own edits multiple times in what looks like an attempt to get their edit count up) by any means. I am hoping that semi-protection for a temporary period (a few days or 1-2 weeks) will discourage whatever is happening to this page. ➤ Zᴇᴇx.ʀɪᴄᴇ ✪ (ᴛᴀʟᴋ) 16:47, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Indefinite create protection: Existing user account that has been created for experimental purposes. So, genuine SPI reports cannot happen. It has been used for an example at {{sock vote}}. This page should be never be created, though it's visibility in a documentation may prompt someone to create it anyway.

Reason: We want to re-live that page Brakshit23 (talk) 07:18, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Kadyrovtsy

Reason: IP users making a large amount of dubious edits about a military unit involved in an active war, my hunch is Russian intelligence or possibly Kadyrovtsies themselves are behind this https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Kadyrovtsy&oldid=1074609648 https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Kadyrovtsy&oldid=1074584119 MaitreyaVaruna (talk) 04:58, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected --Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:21, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

2020 Formula One World Championship

Reason: Almost all recent edits have been either disruptive (usually from IP editors) or reversions of disruptive edits. Some of these disruptive edits have been obvious vandalism (such as this one, this one, this one, this one, or this one), others are good-faith edits which are still disruptive as they go against established consensus (usually the consensus that subnational flags should not be used to indicate location). HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 10:29, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Note - The article has been vandalised twice again since I made this request. I can't really establish why but there's no clear indication that these IPs are related. HumanBodyPiloter5 (talk) 11:45, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
Semi-protected --Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:22, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Edward Hargraves

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Recurring vandalism (several times a month) - doesn't appear to be a widely watched article so often goes unreverted for long periods. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 11:38, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected --Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:24, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Example Article Name

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because this clearly a disputed theory, it is dangerous to present this as a conspiracy theory, “conspiracy theory” is a term hypothesising that there is a conspiracy. But putting it across this way is heavily biased and leaves little room for critical discussion and influences people to believe in an unfounded claim That it is a conspiracy theory. Jarcha98 (talk) 09:46, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Declined – Name of article not provided. Favonian (talk) 09:48, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected --Deepfriedokra (talk) 13:26, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Mahathir Mohamad

Reason: High level of IP vandalism – I and other users are having to tackle this on a daily basis now. IPs are removing sourced content, namely anything mildly critical of his premiership. Much of it seems to be politically motivated. Jkaharper (talk) 12:33, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Cactus Jack Records

Reason: Blocked vandal is back and introducing same vandalism from various IPs. Originally identified IPs are being addressed at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Yungkash3x, but this is now going on for two days and I don't think an IP range can be identified. Article was previously protected due to this specific vandal, and vandalism began again not longer after protection expired. Singularity42 (talk) 14:40, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Already protected. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 15:28, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Modu Chanyu

Reason: High level of IP vandalisms, the latest by IP user 194.146.157.91, possibly the same as or belonging to the same group of vandals tendentiously adding their preferred anachronistic modern Turkish Metehan in article's opening paragraph Erminwin (talk) 21:24, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Maghreb

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The article has been the target of nationalists for quite some time. Mostly SPA and passing IPs who are intent on censoring the mention of either RASD (a founding member of the AU) or Western Sahara. If you look at the article's history, you'll understand what I mean. The last one edit warred over the removal and has been reported to AN3, but unless the article is protected, the disruption will continue until they get what they want (one way or the other).

I would like to add this information on war against democratic Ukraine as this war is being started and coordinated from Kremlin:

On 24 of February 2022 Putin’s regime started a war in Ukraine. Russian army invaded the independent democratic country of Ukraine, attacking peaceful cities in all of the country under the propagandic statement that the reason of the so called operation is to save local people - “we came to save you”, they state. It’s still unknown and its explained, from what or whom the Ukrainian people are supposed to be saved, as for many years they are living in the country with free media, democratically elected parliament, president, freedom of expression and freedom live their live as they choose to. As a result of Russian army attacks, civil areas, including residential houses, hospitals, schools, kindergartens, of the Ukrainian cities are being attacked from air and the ground. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians are forced to leave homes often having only few minutes to collect their belongings before their houses are bombed. Children and pregnant women hiding in the basements of the houses with no food or water. Mothers giving birth in the hospitals under missile attack. Putin and its regime along with Belarusian illegal “president” Lukashenko are executing the crime against humanity, breaking all the possible laws, international agreements. This war will already is the most shameful and unprecedented event of aggression in Europe after II world war. WorldFreeFromPutin2022 (talk) 06:47, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Name of page you are requesting an edit to

On your "About Wikipedia" page, you state: "Anyone with Internet access in good standing can write and make changes to Wikipedia articles, except in limited cases where editing is restricted to prevent further disruption or vandalism." Do you mean that anyone with an internet provider in good standing? Or, do you mean anyone in good standing with Internet access? This is a confusing statement. I would think that this statement means anyone in good standing with Wikipedia and who has an Internet connection may edit Wikipedia articles.

Genetics and archaeogenetics of South Asia

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – It is to bring to your attention that banned LTA User:WorldCreaterFighter seem to be at work again, especially in this article. Uses Austrian IPs/Proxies which seem to be one of the behavioral patterns of the LTA which coincides withh the LTA's interest in genetics. As well as a pro Dravidian/East Eurasian and anti West Eurasian bias. As can be seen here. A look into the various IP edits is a testament of that in the article, not to mention large changes to content without discussion [12] [13].

I would request the admins to protect the article (possibly extended since the LTA had created IDs in the past) and take stringent actions against the proxies. Fylindfotberserk (talk) 10:39, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Kyiv offensive (2022)

Reason: The protection of this page should be lowered to semi-protected, because I believe that there are many enthusiastic people who want to contribute due to the invasion, but they can't because of the protection level. If these people could add information I believe that it will greatly help keep the article updated. Torpschez (talk) 03:24, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Declined @Torpschez: It's more important that the information added to these pages is accurate and based on reporting from reliable sources, than it is that the information is added quickly after events take place. WP:NOTNEWS. Based on the edit request you made recently for this page (where you wanted to add information that was sourced to some kind of map website that apparently anyone can add information to), I'd say that EC protection is doing its job. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 15:33, 4 March 2022 (UTC)

Nadeem Sarwar

Reason: There's no reason for a page to remain perpetual full creation protection. Some protection made sense in 2013, when the page was recreated 3 times, but it should have been lifted long ago.

Legendary creature

Reason: Im requesting protection for this page because I have done my research and references, but every time I post an edit on this page, a user deletes it constantly. I was messaged by this user that I was in a editing war with them and that I was changing other people work, but I did not edit or delete or do anything of any kind to the text that was already there. This is important to me because I did all the relevant research and references and I did not know why only my work was being deleted! but since I got that message on my notice board I relied this user is relentless and won't stop deleting my hard work.

There has only been one edit request on this page, in 2018, to ask for an updated shirt number - clearly not the same situation that requires for his compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo to be protected. It is also worth noting that the biggest recent contributor has been User:7Road, a proven sockpuppet of site banned User:Martimc123 - protection limits the pool of users who can WP:REVERTBAN 2A00:23C5:E187:5F00:30EB:4B27:DD0F:2F39 (talk) 20:52, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Considering this was circa Dark of the Moon, the protection made sense back then. Not so much now.

Talk:Palmer Report

Reason: vandalism from a IP user who was previously caught using a sock puppet account Persesus (talk) 13:43, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

Note: Changed target from "The Palmer Report talk page protection request" to "Talk:Palmer Report". Favonian (talk) 16:03, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
This talk page was semiprotected three times in 2021, the longest was one month. The rationale for those protections is this thread on the talk page. (In addition to the coordinated editing campaign, an admin reported an off-wiki legal threat). One IP has been being a nuisance recently; those edits can be seen at Special:Contributions/2600:6C65:7E7F:B93E::/64. This IP range might quality for a personal attack block for accusing User:Persesus of lying. I don't know anything about Persesus' claim of sockpuppetry by the IP and don't see anywhere where Persesus has provided evidence. EdJohnston (talk) 16:38, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
Just look at the wording on how they write it. it's the same person EdJohnston compare it to what they said to the archived version of the sockpuppet account its nearly identical wording and speech pattern. The personal attacks from said user were uncalled for.--Persesus (talk) 16:44, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
Persesus, who do you think the IP is a sock of? EdJohnston (talk) 22:18, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
I think its a sock puppet account or either Nora or Joe since the IP address is identical if you look at the archived talk page of PR more specially pages 4 and 5. The word styling is the same and idenitcal as well as the layout or format of it. The IP location is the exact same as well EdJohnston .--Persesus (talk) 05:40, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

The techy stuff is a bit over my head...sorry to bother. Just felt like this bit of info regarding Dr. Malone is defaming. I support WIKI. Free speech and free sharing of info is so incredibly important. But, this sort of misuse of the platform makes me feel very sad.
I haven't been able to navigate the edit request. Perhaps, if it matters on a human level, someone could look into it. Here again is the statement of concern;

Why would we add a patently obvious bit of astroturfing into our articles, especially in a topic area under sanctions in part because of the anti-intellectualist astroturfing? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 20:39, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Even the CDC tells us that mRNA vaccines can have side effects. Would it help if I cited the actual health data, say case by case? It just seems so authortarian to dismiss and defame folks.
Totally not trying to be backwards here - just generally concerned about my human family. If there is additional evidence about our health risks, we have the right to know. We still have freedom of speech here, even if we dont agree. Otherwise, we are not Democratic. One Awake (talk) 21:07, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Technically speaking, on private property such as Wikipedia you only have whatever free speech rights the proprietors allow. We are not government property and the First Amendment does not apply here. If the First Amendment applied to private entities, much of the media that exists today would not exist. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 21:26, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
How do we know we aren't being anti-intellectual ourselves if we refuse to hear anything but one voice? One Awake (talk) 21:12, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
How do we know we aren't if we're giving voice to their views? This isn't a both-sides issue, and remember: This is in a topic area under sanctions. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 21:37, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
I honestly did not know there were sanctions on providing facts about any topic on WIKI. I do feel rather certain that mRNA vaccines are a "both sides" issue, otherwise, we wouldn't be having this conversation, every last person on Earth would have happily been vaccinated with mRNA vaccines and you wouldn't be able to refer to "giving voice to their views" if there were no other views.
I took the time to read through all the information provided by the CDC and then I took the time to read through the links provided by Dr. Malone and his colleagues. I assume you have done the same in order to be well informed. There are literally tons of links that trace back to scientific data, patents, case studies and so on. On top of everything, he has spent his life creating vaccines...trying to do something that he thought would help the world. Now, because he expresses doubt about the mRNA vaccine safety, he is being demoralized. If it can happen to him, it can happen to you or me in the future. This is not very American and it's ethically wrong.
So from your reply, I am to understand that Wiki only allows information to be posted if certain proprietors agree? And, I assume that must mean that what has already been said about Dr. Malone (even if it wrongfully defames him) is okay with Wiki? Because "proprietors" say so?
It's very important for me to be able to make sense of these policies because I support WIKI with small donations. If the voice of "SOME" doctors and scientists are going to be limited (all of whom have gotten their degrees in the same way as all other doctors and scientists), then I'm going to withdraw my future financial support from WIKI. What a shame, I was going to dontate today.
I'm not afraid of being proven wrong - I'm vaccinated and I'm a Democrat. We are all ignorant of many things until we actually learn what is true - and even the truth we learn today may change tomorrow as we continue to learn. I want WIKI to be open to providing info that truly reflects the nature of their subjects otherwise it isn't worth supporting. There are two sides to this debate and it is morally wrong to defame a person who has not been legally convicted of any wrong doing. One Awake (talk) 23:32, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
A lot of arguments, but none of any actual substance here, plus the usual "I'm not donating unless you favour my weltanschauung" blackmail threat that means nothing to us unpaid volunteers who're tired of dealing with the denialism and efforts to use Wikipedia to push a specific narrative, all in defence of blatantly obvious astroturfing cited to a website homepage which we wouldn't be able to cite in the first place (no comment on the website itself). From my responces, you should be getting the impression "Do NOT edit this topic unless you are fully willing to accept the consequences arising from your actions, for good or for ill." You're a new editor who appears to have a particular bee in their bonnet about this topic; I would be making the exact same recommendation if you were instead editing Joe Biden, Love Jihad, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, or any of literally thousands of other articles that fall under anything listed here. This is not a topic you want to be anywhere near as a user unfamiliar with Wikipedia, nor is this a hill you want to fight on. I take no position on the actual content of the article in question, and am specifically targeting your arguments and debate tactics. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v a little blue Bori 02:24, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons

Reason: Edit warring on policy page - Repeated attempts to remove existing policy through edit warring without gaining consensus. Already protected once in January before RfC, which ended with no consensus gained for removal or other issues. Recent attempt to remove text again after RfC[22] prompted this request. More background here.[23] I feel like my hands are tied here, and I don't want to have to be the one reverting on a policy page, so admin input appreciated too. KoA (talk) 19:41, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

KoA, you reverted away from the stable language of the guideline without having consensus for the change. You should indeed not be reverting away from longstanding language against consensus, but I am curious about your request to increase the page protection: is that to prevent yourself from edit warring? Newimpartial (talk) 20:03, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
I requested the protection to prevent editors from trying to remove existing policy without gaining consensus even after the RfC, which you just did after this request.[24] It's been a recurring problem at that policy page lately with respect to "stable". I have not made any edits at the page that don't contain existing policy language, and it's backwards to require consensus on my part for restoring already approved policy language. It would be a different case if I did propose any real policy changes or additions not already in policy. The avenues for disputing existing policy were already discussed on the talk page before you reverted again.
For admins, this is exactly why I am asking for help. For a policy page, this is not going very smoothly after the RfC. KoA (talk) 20:26, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Admin, please take a look at this explanation. KoA seems to be under the misapprehension that they can copy-paste text from one policy page to another against consensus. Unless this is what you want to see, you should treat KoA's request here with all due skepticism. Newimpartial (talk) 20:33, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Multiple editors at WT:BLP have asked KoA to stop reinstating their bold change to WP:BLP without first gaining consensus. Rather than increasing page protection of WP:BLP, I'd ask reviewing admins to remind KoA not to edit war. Levivich 21:07, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Levivich, this is not a full blown AN3 thread, but part the reason I asked for page protection was because you were not engaging on the talk page in addition to edit warring linked above. If you wanted to make a bold change and remove existing policy language even after no issues were found with existing policy, consensus was needed. This is an extremely nuanced policy discussion that can't be painted in broad strokes like you're or Newimpartial are doing, and it isn't helpful for those of us trying to walk a fine line within it all.
Admins, it looks like the policy page itself has blown up with edit warring by others again (which is why I came here first hoping it maybe wouldn't). Obviously the first RfC didn't work to quell opposition to existing policy about self-published sources in BLPs not being considered independent or that being a researcher, etc. are not exceptions. Process obviously isn't working as intended there, but I'm also stepping back from this dispute at this point. Dealing with edit warring is just exhausting. I'm open to suggestions from admins for cutting through the sort of meta-mire that's forming here, but that's either something for my talk page or the policy page itself.

Butterfly World Tour

Reason: User 'Ilovetati91' keeps adding unreliable, illegitimate, and potentially false information into this page:

The Wikipedia editing rules regarding “biographies of living persons” clearly demonstrate that “editors must take particular care when writing biographical material about living persons. Contentious material about a living person that is unsourced or poorly sourced should be removed immediately; do not move it to the talk page. This applies to any material related to living persons on any page in any namespace, not just article space.” Further, “BLPs should be written responsibly, cautiously, and in a dispassionate tone, avoiding both understatement and overstatement. Articles should document in a non-partisan manner what reliable secondary sources have published about the subjects, and in some circumstances what the subjects have published about themselves.” In Nickson’s book about Carey, no reliable published source was provided to prove that 150k and 200k tickets were respectively sold for Carey’s Tokyo concerts in 1996 and 1998. In this sense, Nickson’s claims could be entirely fabricated, and editing such claims into Carey’s page could be seen as an overstatement or even an understatement of Carey’s touring career. Moreover, by labelling his own book as an “unauthorized biography”, Nickson clearly attempted to avoid his legal liability for the content since an “unauthorized biography” would no doubt give rise to untrue or false claims as well as pure fabrications. Thus, it is unlikely that Nickson’s book is an appropriate source considering all mentioned aspects and it should not be included in any Carey-related pages. KMO2014 (talk) 06:46, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Hey there! I'll cite you the guidelines "Semi-protection is useful when there is a significant amount of disruption or vandalism from new or unregistered users, or to prevent sockpuppets of blocked or banned users from editing, especially when it occurs on biographies of living persons who have had a recent high level of media interest". If you want to know more, please read Wikipedia:Protection policy. You are also welcome on my talk page with any further questions. Best, Less Unless (talk) 14:06, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Since the filter shows Filter description: Ukraine/Russia logging, there may also be problems with misuse of multiple accounts and PROXY.

Just wanted to say: I've seen it done on Talk:Roblox, Talk:Minecraft, Talk:Poppy Playtime, and Talk:Twilight Sparkle for short periods, which are all pages that receive a great amount of NOTFORUM and vandalistic talk page nonsense. wizzito | say hello! 21:36, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
Not saying it's never done. I am saying it's rare. This talk page has had all of six edits in the last three days. That's nowhere near enough to justify protection, even on the article page, much less a talk page. -Ad Orientem (talk) 21:48, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: The page was protected to prevent previous edits that were made in good faith and improving of the content, which is currently under consideration for deletion because of the biased tenor and questionable references.

The edits don't violate core policies, and the use of the Twinkle tool is improper. 50.1.123.184 (talk) 19:15, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
The edits need to be restored. 50.1.123.184 (talk) 19:27, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
If so, suggest them on the talk page and gain WP:CONSENSUS for them. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:37, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

If stating facts is bias, you're against stating facts--CreecregofLife (talk) 20:55, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
The so-called facts are arranged in a biased way and again, have not been subjected to the consensus that's currently being required of the deleted edits removed before the protection.

Sculpture Park Engelbrecht

Reason: This page was created on commission by the executress of Erich Engelbrecht in 2018. Updates were made between 2018 and 2022, which were in principle accepted by her and the original author.

Today, it has been discovered that an association convicted in Germany in a procedure concerning the copyright of Erich Engelbrecht has made changes to the page. The association "Amis des Fougis", indicated here as user "ADF1091" and which is run by the other two people also convicted in the same copyright case in 2018, is not allowed to publish images of Erich Engelbrecht's works on the Internet.

For the time being we have only verified an unauthorised change in the label of this page.

There is a risk that this page, as well as the other associated pages in German and English, will be modified by this user (or by others commissioned by him).

As the creator of this page created on behalf of the executress of Erich Engelbrecht, Mrs. Waltraud Engelbrecht, we hereby request a protection of this page against such modifications. Since the end of 2018, there is no longer an executor, but an indivisible execution takes place until July 2041. Any action regarding editorial changes requires the agreement of all members of the Community of heirs of Erich Engelbrecht. The modification registered today (13.02.2022) has not been authorised.

If requested, we can send you a copy of the above-mentioned judgment of the Hamm High Court of September 2018. Jjdeav (talk) 11:01, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

fyi: there are similar requests at frWP [47] and deWP [48]. Looks like undisclosed paid editing by @Jjdeav and @ADF1901. -- Johannnes89 (talk) 11:11, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
This is not a renumerated edition, but the contribution of a private person to the divulgation of Erich Engelbrecht's works, both on the Internet and in book form.
Knowledge for the edition comes from the participation as former technical advisor of the artist for the construction of the sculpture park as well as from the voluntary collaboration with his widow in the elaboration of an inventory of his work.
Any other suggestion is out of context and pure speculation. Jjdeav (talk) 12:20, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

The Kashmir Files

Reason: The Article about the 2022 movie 'The Kashmir File', is biased. The writer has depicted the movie to be a hate-mongering and Islamophobic movie, while in real life there is no such thing. The movie only focuses on showing the genocide and the brutal ways the Kashmiri Pandits/Hindus where killed at the hand of Islamic Terrorists. The movie is historically accurate till a large extent and does not exaggerate the events. To allow proper unbiased articles on Wikipedia, the protection should be reduced so as to make sure people of both parties Hindus and Muslims have a equal right to write the article and does not get based.

Talk:2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Disruptive Editing. While unusual, protecting talk pages that are the target of spam and disruption has worked in the few extreme cases when it has been implemented, this being such an extreme case.

Reason: The article was indefinitely semi-protected in 2010 due to vandalism by specific IP editors. It has been 12 years since that ruckus, so it seems appropriate to allow this article to be edited like most other articles on Wikipedia. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:35, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Note: Well, it was essentially protected because of one recurring problem: what is his nationality? Looking at the at the talk-page and the edit reqeusts, this, so my opinion is that getting rid of the protection will lead to problems with the article. I wouldn't unprotect, but opinions from other admins are welcome. Lectonar (talk) 13:41, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
If the problem persists, semi-protection can be restored. I just find 12 years to be an inordinately long time to have kept this applied, with editing patterns and behavior likely to have changed since then. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:49, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: Hello, a page is extend protected some point over a year ago just because of some blanking and vandalism by some account. At least should be restored to semi protection and see it, you can just protect the page again if there would be the same sort of vandalism, but I doubt that would be there. 113.185.46.16 (talk) 13:13, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

@NinjaRobotPirate: last protecting admin, for input please. Lectonar (talk) 14:25, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
See Special:Diff/1069409544. This IP editor is probably the person it was protected against. See also Special:Diff/1069218874 and other repeated requests here; Special:Diff/1069801011 and Special:Diff/1069802321 when given an answer he doesn't like (blanking sprees, how original); Special:Diff/1027252641 and Special:Diff/1027150132 as IP editors continuing the same discussion on User talk:Badass Flare#Ok. From Blocklog for "59.153.0.0/16" , you can see that the range block on Special:Contributions/59.153.0.0/16 was done to stop this particular vandal, and the conversations on Badass Flare's talk page seem to be an explanation of why this vandal engages in blanking sprees. This LTA actually believes that by removing content from Wikipedia articles, it causes his favorite teams to win games ("I noticed that when I started making edits changing the article to a new style (the layout/format/style that I'm advising you to follow) instead of keeping the previous format, the UAE team changed a lot, their playing style and performance is different now and much better.") So, what I propose is that people just ignore requests from this LTA. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:51, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Enlargement of NATO

Reason: NATO has been in the news a lot over the last month due to the conflict in Ukraine (and Wikipedia's top 25), and it and several daughter articles have seen a marked increase in various edit wars. We're dealing with a certain amount of what might be considered pro-Putin propaganda. NATO was raised to WP:BLUELOCK last week, and I was hoping Enlargement of NATO could get the same. Thanks! -- Patrick Neil, oѺ∞/Talk 15:10, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Except in rare cases, mostly cases where the Arbitration Committee has explicitly already protected the area and recommends technically implementing the protection using extended-confirmed protection, articles are only extended-confirmed protected if semi-protection has "proven to be ineffective" (WP:ECP).

Siege of Mariupol

Extended confirmed protection The page's protection level has been moved from extended confirmed protected to fully protected. This decision was based on the actions of two editors who administrators felt were edit warring between each other. However, as pe Talk:Siege of Mariupol#Chesapeake77, these two editors have reached a consensus to apologize for their actions
It is unfair to keep this article fully protected based on the edits of just two users as it is related to an ongoing event that has had over a hundred edits by other users, especially when the two users have reached an agreement. I find it unlikely that this article would be regularly updated with this current status of protection (Indeed, as I write not a single edit has been made since it was last protected, despite numerous requests on the talk page). I understand the rationale for fully protecting this article, but the need for doing so has passed. Dunutubble (talk) (Contributions) 15:46, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent block evasion of LTA User:WorldCreaterFighter. Austronesier (talk) 14:20, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

No sock evasion, but simply a case of WP:IJUSTDONTLIKEIT. It does neither improve the article, nor is related to vandalism or any harm. It is simple dislike, or maybe the user follows some personal agenda? Removal of references and quotes is not encyclopedic, regardless of if you agree or not!
I must ask: What is the sense to remove quotations/inline citations? Does the user fear that other neutral user may see the references and inline citations and work in an encyclopedic way, as opposed to his own personal view?
The user must not agree with the interpretation of the IP, but removing references is a no go, especially when he favors primary papers instead of secondary/tertiary ones, which is a violation of WP:RS and WP:MEDRS.
There was even an SPI, which resulted in no action against the many accused IPs! See:[1] - 2001:4BC9:926:4F95:810D:2019:5D5:3B9A (talk) 15:04, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: I'm requesting semi-protection for this article for a few weeks because unfortunately it has been getting edits from anonymous users (and even at least 1 registered user) that have been reverted because they've been adding drivers that haven't been announced to race for a particular team or adding races for drivers that haven't been announced to be running them.

2022 in animation

Reason: Pleasant disruptive editing from a user by the name of CreecregofLife. Continues to believe that The Owl House is “ending” but is actually “canceling”, and continuously adds Amphibia to the shows that are ending, but the third season is only implied as the last season, not officially. Note that “ending” and “canceling” are actually different meanings. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 18:12, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

Note: Edits by CreegregofLife do not appear to be obviously disruptive.

@C.Fred: I highly urge you to check out their response to your warning on their talk page about personal attacks. They doubled down and are no longer acting in good faith. Using the WP:NOTPERFECT defense for themselves, while insisting on calling me disruptive. It's becoming very apparent they're trying to push a narrative they're attempting to win the dispute with--CreecregofLife (talk) 20:56, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
I mean it is disruptive, in the sense, that it is part of an edit war. There is undoubtedly a content dispute, but discussion on the talk page is ongoing. I would support protection for the time being until the content dispute is resolved. Historyday01 (talk) 23:52, 19 March 2022 (UTC)

Template:Deceased Wikipedian

Reason: This special purpose template primarily sits atop the fully protected user page of former Wikipedians, now deceased. Guidelines stipulate full-protection for these user pages to prevent defacement by vandalism. In my opinion, this template's current level of semi-protection is inconsistent with that goal and serves opportunistic vandals an inviting breach to overcome the efforts in place. I am requesting that this high visibility template, with 423 transclusions, be elevated to TE-protection (at minimum) if not full-protection, to tighten or close this breach respectively. I prefer TE-protection because I feel it's an adequate increase which will allow for the possible editing solution of converting this template to substitute only, which I intend to pursue. Thank you. --John Cline (talk) 23:37, 20 March 2022 (UTC)

Peacenotwar (malware)

Reason: Users starting an edit war rather than discussing their disagreements in the talk page. This page is also linked with the personal page of a user which already has a warning due to said user writing/ editing a substantial portion of the page. This user also deleted support tickets/ issues on Github relating to this incident for the purpose of spinning the narrative, so there is a high risk that he will personally vandalize the page. This page is also related to an issue of current events which has political undertones, further increasing the chances of vandalism. The Gentle Sleep (talk) 00:45, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

I'd like to call attention to The Gentle Sleep's POV pushing. This is the edit he's trying to lock in by protecting the page: https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Peacenotwar_%28malware%29&type=revision&diff=1078287148&oldid=1078224662

Alexander Graham Bell

Reason: (Requesting a second time due to initial request being archived without any decision to approve or decline.) The article was indefinitely semi-protected 12 years ago, and per WP:PPLIST, this seems like "a reasonable period has elapsed". There could either be full unprotection or pending changes protection. The latter could be a good way to see if the nationality-based disruption from over 12 years ago will resume or not, and allow passerby editors to make other kinds of changes.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Reason: Frequent disruptive editing by IPs/new users, a lot of which appears random. Most other IP/new user edits are good faith but unhelpful (usually due to being incorrect or sourcing issues). The topic is highly contentious, it's one of the most viewed psychology and medicine articles (I'm guessing the same is true for any of its other projects as well), and it's on a lot of watchlists. It also receives 2.3 edits per day (according to xtools), so it's not ideal for pending changes. It has previously had various forms of protection, including infinite semi-protection that was removed from the page due to the protection being temporarily increased, and the semi-protect not being reinstated after the higher level expired. Vandalism immediately picks up again whenever protection has been removed.

Preferably it would be infinitely semi-protected again. Xurizuri (talk) 11:54, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: This page was WP:SALTed by User:Seraphimblade in 2018, as it was being repeatedly created and deleted. However, with the release of Mach-Hommy's 2021 album Pray for Haiti, he has been discussed more in music and entertainment media, and two substantial interviews with him have been published within the past few months. Therefore, I feel that there now exist enough sources to support a Mach-Hommy article. I have a draft in my userspace showing the article I intend to create if the salting is lifted.

@Seraphimblade: Pinging Seraphimblade for their input. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 22:53, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
The references used here are at least of substantially higher quality than before, so that's very much an improvement. It does appear that a lot of what's there is interviews, which don't contribute to notability, but some of them do have at least some non-interview biographical content with them as well. Given that, I'll unprotect it, and if anyone thinks it's still insufficient, this version is at least different enough to warrant a new AfD to decide on that. Seraphimblade Talk to me 23:53, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
Thank you, much appreciated! Thanks as well for bringing up the point about interviews not contributing to notability – I hadn't realized that, so it'll be good for me to keep in mind going forward. I've aimed to foreground the non-interview content in the sources I've used thus far, but I'll keep an eye out for other sources to beef the page up as well.

@Number 57. It looks from the protection log as though Number 57 protected the article Maki (current political party) in 2008. Subsequently, the protection went with the page when it was moved to the current title in 2012. Pinging Number 57 for their input. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 16:38, 23 March 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Hypebeast

Reason: Hypebeast has since been unprotected, but Talk:Hypebeast remains protected. Requesting for unprotection.

A bit of background:

Hypebeast was deleted before, probably because it may have been poorly written before, had issues with WP:TOOSOON, or maybe was too promotional. I can't see the previous versions though. So, following WP:TNT, I gave this a complete restart by translating from the Japanese edition of Wikipedia, which has a pretty good-quality version. I actually have a lot of in-depth knowledge about hip hop publications and related topics, and Hypebeast is definitely a very notable publication that shouldn't be protected/salted.

Also, please note that Hypebeast is currently linked to from many Wikipedia articles [129]. There are also hundreds of hits if you search of "Hypebeast," and it's a widely cited publication used mostly in musician BLPs, so it certainly meets GNG and is worth including on Wikipedia.

    Neveselbert, the case you put forward doesn’t hold up - Vandalism? Consistent with the target article? Nor can you see the BLP violation, now deleted, that necessitated the protection. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 02:58, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    I did notify NawlinWiki, but they appear to be inactive. I waited a day before requesting unprotection here, which was declined and archived before I had the chance to respond. So I've since requested a reduction in the protection level, to SP which would be consistent with the level for the redirect's target. I don't believe the rationale for locking the page still holds up, since the subject of the redirect has since died, voiding any possible further violation. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 03:23, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    The target page is ECP not SP. If only you were clear in your initial request - you asked for SP due to persistent vandalism, consistent with the target page. Why don’t you start again and ask for a lowering of protection to ECP without any mention of vandalism? It won’t be lowered further than that because the page falls under arbitration enforcement as it can be reasonably construed as belonging to the Arab–Israeli conflict. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 04:11, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    Sorry of course, I've struck out the mention of vandalism and I apologise for not being clear in my initial request (I did mean ECP, not SP, sorry again for the confusion). ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 04:27, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    Of course it could be lowered to ECP, but why? Is there an urgent need to do so, an article to be written? Or is the intent just to synchronize the protection levels? Lectonar (talk) 08:26, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    An argument against "synchronizing" the protection levels is that the article currently has 690 watchers while the redirect has 3. Undesirable changes to the redirect by an EC user are thus much more likely to go undiscovered. Favonian (talk) 09:12, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    I don't think this is a particularly controversial redirect, like Hitler for example. The vast majority of redirects in Redirects from sort names are not protected, let alone fully protected, like this. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 20:23, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    You still haven't answered the basic question: why? Why does it need to be unprotected? Are you planning on turning into an article that differs from it's current target? Jauerbackdude?/dude. 20:38, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    I originally wanted it unprotected to tag the redirect, which has since been done by an admin. It's still however tagged as a fully-protected redirect, which I think is unnecessary for the reasons I've given. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 20:51, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
    I'm not sure how this page got protected at all. The protection log says it was protected because of persistent vandalism. There have only been 3 edits to the page, and none of them were vandalism. As far as I know, if the target of a redirect is getting vandalized, that doesn't justify protection of its redirects. My vote would be to unprotect it altogether until there is evidence that it is actually a target for vandalism. —⁠ScottyWong⁠— 16:04, 21 March 2022 (UTC)
    The explanation may be found in the deleted revision log. Someone moved the article (when that was still possible) to an unpleasant/derivative name involving the words "War Criminal", and a bot obligingly fixed the double redirect. Then it got deleted, recreated with the proper target and protected. As there's no need for changing the current redirect that cannot be handled with an edit request, I prefer keeping it fully protected. Favonian (talk) 16:27, 21 March 2022 (UTC)

Schools are a nightmare when it comes to vandalism that often targets real life youth. Terasail, I see you making the argument that protection is no longer needed because there is no vandalism. I could easily turn that around and say that there is no vandalism because the page is protected, so the protection should remain. On articles that have a history of abuse and the potential for real world harm to individuals, as an admin I'm going to err on the side of caution to protect these individuals.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 03:27, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
This is actually a forgotten indef semi used against a banned sock in 2008 (OP misread the log). Should be a procedural unprotect at this point. Also, looking through the page history, the protection literally did f-all to protect the page as the socking continued on that page throughout the years. There's no point, there never was.

I have removed these comments twice. Another neighbor said they deleted it once also. So that would be three. There may be more.
Also, I am not sure if it was same person but happened at same time. In almost the same paragraph. Someone is putting in specific details of the murder mentioned. This has been distressing to the victims family. It was an especially brutal murder. They didn’t mind us referring to the crime, since it led to changes in Umapine. It isn’t really necessary to have morbid details of the tragedy in the page. The victim was a private citizen, not anyone famous.

Reason: Indefinitive pending changes: Persistent vandalism – The IP insists on changing the initial sentence to the Crunchyroll article here on Wikipedia indicating that it is an entertainment company like Funimation, which is the main provider of dubbing and distribution of Asian content included in anime and drama and the truth is that I do not see that Crunchyroll is doing dubbing in mid-March after the merger with it if it only distributes, edits, produces and licenses anime for the following seasons.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This article has a long history of vandalism and disruptive editing, which has continued even after several previous short-term protections. Since this is the sort of article that naturally attracts vandals, indefinite semi-protection is probably a good idea. Pending-changes protection might also be an option, although there seem to be far more unconstructive IP edits than constructive IP edits. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 17:25, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Drake

Reason: I request for this page to have pending-changes protection indefinitely or at least a long period of time. It’s a disambiguation that gets hit with random acts of vandalism regularly. Vandalism seems to outnumber constructive edits. This is likely due to the pop culture influence of the musician Drake. There’s rarely anything useful to be added to this page in comparison to the frequency of persistent troll/vandalism edits. This page was temporarily protected at some point a few years ago, but alas in its current unprotected state, the article still gets vandalized for the same reasons. Temporary protection didn’t seem to change that paradigm. This will likely continue in some persistent manner for as long as Drake the musician is an actively famous popular public figure.

Question: @Btspurplegalaxy: Could you elaborate? I am not familiar with the subject. Ad Orientem (talk) 22:39, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
There's a high activity of IP users coming in and out, editing constantly. Btspurplegalaxy 🗩 🖉 22:52, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
That's not against the rules. Unless they are actually vandalizing the article or in some other way behaving disruptively, we don't protect articles. As long as the edits are mostly constructive, that's a good thing. -Ad Orientem (talk) 23:36, 25 March 2022 (UTC)
They don't seem to be constructive edits. Things are being changed randomly. It doesn't help that there isn't an edit summary of what the IP users are adding. Btspurplegalaxy 🗩 🖉 01:23, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Yes, the two most recent edits seemed to make random changes to the tables of her victories - but two problem edits are not enough to justify protection. It's also hard to understand why you earlier reverted, in a single edit, more than a month's worth of edits by at least a dozen different people. I suggest you be more selective in your editing. MelanieN (talk) 03:24, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: Stop playing these anniversary games. 9/11 was not a joke. More than 2500 innocent people were killed. Having SP on such a page is injustice to the victims and their families.

This is a request to restore Special:Diff/1068022507 to the last edit on 26th January 2022.

User FelicityWiki has made edits that subtly defames John Gordillo as you can tell by

  • unlinking his website
  • removing links to his "Podcast for Kel" podcast
  • editing the main content to make it seem less favourable about his achievements and
  • editing to seem he's generally an unfavorable character

I know John Gordillo personally and have given my attention to this so I created an account to appeal to administrators to have the page restored to the last version before FelicityWiki edited the page who we both believe it's someone who has continually engaged in online harassment against John on every social media platform and now seeks to defame him further.

John and I have decided to directly appeal to administrators instead of engaging FelicityWiki as, historically she has been hostile and we both believe this would be a waste of time. We are appealing for swift action on these defamatory edits which can clearly be differentiated by reading the current Vs previous versions. Comedymod (talk) 13:02, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: High level of one-time IP edits, adding the same picture to the heading. See [153] and Talk page [154] and page edit history. I have already moved pic to the Film section and they keep adding it back to the header. Tropic Wolf (talk) 18:28, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Declined Looks like this is being addressed at WP:3RRN. Also we don't protect pages except in cases of very widespread disruptive editing where lesser measures either have failed or obviously won't work. That is not the case here. Ad Orientem (talk) 19:56, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
This isn't actually being addressed, the editing is disruptive, and I don't know exactly what measure is supposed to work when he is jumping from computer to computer and refuses to justify his edits or engage in discussion or heed any warning. ~~ Tropic Wolf (talk) 03:41, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

The Kashmir Files

Reason: Just like Schindler's list , this movie depicts the true story of the genocide faced by Hindus in the Kashmir valley in the late 1980s and 1990s and has been validated by victims and their families too.Calling a film based on true stories of violence against kashmiri pandit community a fictional story and infact falsely accusing the film of inciting violence against Muslim based on one off incident is like making mockery of their suffering. Kashmir genocide is a well documented fact , where more than 500000 were forced to leave their homes and more than 4000 were killed just because they refused to convert to Islam. Even after 30 years , they have not been able to return.We are not against any religion but the voice of the minority/oppressed shouldn't be suppressed too. Plead with folded hands to allow people accurately present the facts, the current form seems to be an opinion of someone who didn't want the truth to be told 223.233.78.98 (talk) 17:26, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Reason: Dynamic IPs (possibly same person) repeatedly adding incorrect information that subject had the title Sir [169] [170] [171] [172] [173] [174] or was even a British citizen. It has already been discussed on talk page that honorary knights (those who aren't subjects of the Queen) are not called Sir, which is widely covered in sources [175] and it is fragrantly false that the subject was a British citizen, he just got an honorary medal from Britain. This user seems to live to add this false information over and over again, never with an edit summary. Unknown Temptation (talk) 21:33, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Long-term pending changes would be recommended so that these disruptive edits can be subject to review. Semi-protection may be useless due to user returning to a page with few watchers. Unknown Temptation (talk) 22:22, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

@Ks0stm: thanks for responding. A couple things, can you check the settings? It appears it expires the same time as when you added. Also, this has been going on for weeks now, same person, multiple ip addresses and registered accounts... could a longer period be considered? Lastly, I only asked about the indef becuase of the recent discussion about the list of uaerpages that are pp-indef. (I can't find it rigjht now, but maybe you know what I mean? It was from just a couple days ago.) Thanks again - wolf 07:09, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
@Thewolfchild: I was just circling back to say that after some digging I found the SPI for the sock farm that's been harassing you, and I filed a report with the latest ones from your user talk. Considering the sockmaster's extensive history, I went ahead and extended your semi to three months. I would recommend that you create a page like User talk:Thewolfchild/Unprotected talk, prominently link it from your user talk page and watchlist it; this will allow you to still get messages from IPs and new users without the disruption of new message notifications if the socks attack it.

Long-term pending changes: – getting hit with ongoing IP troll/vandal edits. Seems to be usually just a few words, and similar types of edits most times, and doesn’t appear to be any repeat offenders if at all. Mostly just “drive-by” type of edits. Semi-protect would probably excessively kill the ability of general users to edit. It seems like some unregistered IPs and new users are contributing well-intentioned edits.

Wikipedia:Notability (sports)

Reason: The "editing disputes" which have justified the page protection have already been resolved in this RfC. Page protection is simply administrator endorsement of the recent stonewalling by editors who refuse to allow the consensus to be implemented. Avilich (talk) 21:37, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

1. The day the protection expired, edit warring resumed. 2. "Resolution" is unclear because the RfC close is unclear. 3. m:Wrong version. It's odd that the reporting user says endorsement when the protection tag reads: "This protection is not an endorsement" (bold in the original), but then again, this. 4. As mentioned, any admin is welcome to do whatever with the protection. I do not object to any action an uninvolved admin sees fit to take in this matter (like, unprotecting the page and blocking disputants instead, whatever). El_C 21:50, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

WP:EW stop-gap measure. El_C 22:07, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
  • For the record, the RfC close is very clear, it says "there is a rough consensus that participation-based criteria are a problem and that the best way forward is to remove them". All that remains is for this part to be implemented. This is the third time the page has been protected and the problem persists, so stop-gaps are a weak excuse at this point. If this page absolutely needs to be protected, the protector should assume the responsibility of becoming involved and to make an actual effort to understand the matter.

For the record: two admins and a couple of other users thanked me for the protection, so who really knows. El_C 22:44, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
I would have thanked you too but I was offline. Actually I would have fully protected it for the third time if I had seen it. No, we are not responsible for getting involved in that mess. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:52, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, Muboshgu. It's absurd to me that we have veteran editors here who would have rather the edit warring just kept going (for how long? who knows), until an admin has met their requirement of reviewing massive material on multiple pages, including a revision history dig for no apparent reason. Sports, right? El_C 23:01, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
The whole process looks FUBAR to me and it has brought out the worst behaviors in some of the editors. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:32, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
  • Support unprotection - The RfC outcome is clear, the closure review was archived without consensus to overturn, and the closer has clarified that the only remaining question is where exactly the line lies between merit and participation (if you don't know what I'm talking about, please step away from the page and let others handle it). This can be resolved through normal discussion, which is currently taking place, and disruptive behaviors such as mass reverting to the participation based version or demanding that projects be given more time to develop replacement criteria should be addressed directly instead of through ever-increasing stopgap page locks. The admin who protected the page has told us that they are leaving the page protection decision to other admins and they do not need to be consulted or notified. Please give us a chance to implement the RfC consensus, and if you're going to protect the page, please make the effort to address folks who are editing against consensus instead of just protecting and walking away. –dlthewave ☎ 02:17, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
So you want the page unprotected to do what, exactly? Edit war your preferred version back? I don't understand. And for the last time, no, I'm not gonna do that (the "effort" of which you speak), please stop asking (everyone). That's not how admin actions work. We are not ARBCOM and are not obliged to engage in an in-depth review of every single action undertaken. If you're lucky enough to find an admin who wants to dig deep here, that's great, but I make no apologies for curbing an edit war absent that. Again, I am not obliged to do anything else, and to repeat, will no longer act on, or assist in, this dispute. Hope this clears things up, at least in so far that I won't need to reiterate these points yet again. El_C 02:30, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
This isn't about anybody's 'preferred version', it's about implementing the objective consensus of a discussion which this page protection is supposed to encourage, but which in fact has already happened; that it's indeed our preferred version is merely a coincidence. This isn't an 'edit war' in which both sides are wrong, this is a straightforward case of one side being obstructive, and they'll keep doing it because they know you'll give them exactly what they want by locking the page. The only 'effort' you need to do is making sense of that one sentence I quoted from the RfC closure, and not getting in the way of it's implementation. Avilich (talk) 02:57, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Sorry, not interested. El_C 03:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
El C, you do in fact seem quite interested in defending your page protection, but you seem to lose interest as soon as the conversation turns to the actual facts of the matter. May I ask why you chose page protection as the best course of action here? –dlthewave ☎ 03:17, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
I am interested in defending my position, to which I have nothing further to add at this time. El_C 03:26, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
  • Support unprotection so that the RfC result #3 can be implemented by removing participation criteria. I don't understand what is complicated about that. There is nothing unclear about the RfC question 3, or the closing statement, or that the close challenge did not result in overturn. I would like to go through the page and make edits that have consensus, such as some of the outstanding edit requests. Muboshgu, El C, if you're going to full protect the page, please articulate the criteria necessary for unprotection. "Ask another admin" is not a satisfactory response in my view. If the criteria is consensus, I direct you to RFC #3 and ask you to explain to me why that consensus doesn't meet your criteria. Thanks, Levivich 06:25, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
I decline to provide you with any further assistance here, whatsoever. El_C 07:04, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
  • I'm busy Tuesday evenings, so I'm only just getting around to parsing the latest mess. It's still late for me, so I'm not going to act on this until I've slept, but for now I'm just going to float my plans. The protection by El_C was within policy, and I can completely understand why he's not interested in getting involved with this farce. That said, I think a month-long full protection is not the ideal way to handle a handful of editors who refuse to comply with policies on consensus and edit warring. Maybe I need a nap, so El_C and Muboshgu tell me if this sounds crazy, but my plan is to (1) go through the page history tomorrow and partially block (probably for a month) editors who have been edit warring, (2) lift the full protection with a log entry requesting administrators block instead of protect, and (3) put a note on the talk page warning that I will be making liberal use of the block button for editors who continue to behave disruptively on the main guideline page. It's been over three weeks we've been dealing with disruptive editing at that page and everyone just seems to keep waiting-out the protection. — Wug·a·po·des​ 07:55, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
As I note above: "unprotecting the page and blocking disputants instead," is perfectly fine with me. Indeed, I don't want to deal with this and, of course, I don't have to. It's bewildering to me the approach that some here have taken to, uh, try to motivate me to do so, but that has had the complete opposite effect. Anyway, thanks for stepping in, Wug. I'd also recommend making it clear which user in addition to yourself has closed which proposal by adding sigs and time stamps to any unsigned closing statement/s. Because, as it stands, that close is presented in a very confusing way. Good luck! El_C 08:15, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Endorse the above plan by Wugapodes. At this point, after the RFC has been closed and review completed, edit warring in contravention of the RFC consensus results needs to be handled on an individual basis. --Jayron32 13:57, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
+1 with thanks. Levivich 14:56, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

+1 and thank you as well. –dlthewave ☎ 22:56, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
Unprotected I followed through with parts 2 and 3 of my above-discussed plan. See talk page note and unprotection. After a good night's sleep, I think going on a blocking spree is a little harsh right now and strains the limits of the blocking policy. Better to give a warning for how things will move forward and give everyone one last chance to shape up. — Wug·a·po·des​ 05:37, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
