Not done – Favonian (talk) 05:35, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
Remove {{R to related topic}} from the redirect page (not the page that the redirect is pointing to). Rationale: This template is for mainspace only, and is causing the page to appear in Category:Pages with templates in the wrong namespace. I can't use {{sudo}} for this, because the talk page is also a redirect and I don't want to mess with it and potentially annoy the clerks. NYKevin 05:34, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: I feel this page is a candidate for "Semi" or "Pending changes" protection because it is a generally contentious topic, considering it includes a large "controversies" section, and could be the target of vandalism. Vandalism is not rampant but the last few hundred commits have at least a few reverts tagged for vandalism and the page seems to receive a lot of non-account edits. The edit logs also contains a decent number of edits that appear to be biased in tone along with edits trying to correct the language. Armeym (talk) 10:17, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

- I made this request before ScottishFinnishRadish added page protection, this page protection is temporary though, and indefinite protection may be optimal. -Samoht27 (talk) 18:14, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because it was an anti-vandalism template that was applied 10 years ago. My understanding is such protection should only be placed briefly, or long enough to deter the vandalism. Sadly the admin who placed the protection has their user page memorialized. 2A02:C7C:CC80:8200:AC18:DDD1:CC70:F1B6 (talk) 18:08, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

- Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The two IPs are obviously the same person, and there is reason to suspect they may have a COI with the subject. The article hasn't been protected before. Being a BLP, I'm more willing to add some strong protection, where normally I would have blocked the editor for edit warring (as at least three different editors have reverted and been reverted by them). Unfortunately, when IPs are edit warring (and likely have a COI), and address and ranges can flip in an instant, we don't have a lot of tools to deal with the problems.

- Not done This board is for requesting that protection levels be changed, and in this case, to "decrease" the level of protection. There is no protection on the page you have requested a review of. Anyone, including IPs, should be able to edit it, so there isn't anything for us to do. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 06:56, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: It's been almost 20 years, so I think unprotection or at least semi-protection is reasonable. See also User_talk:Fish_and_karate#Request_for_unprotection ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 07:09, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
- This is covered by Arb's Contentious Topics, not just a simple protection issue, via the target article Demographic history of Jerusalem, which was protected by Ymblanter about three years ago. Granted, this doesn't dictate the protection level of the redirect, but it still influences it. I would also question the wisdom of reducing the protection to semi (or removing it) given the current political environment. I wonder if this would need to go to AE or Arb anyway, because of the CT link, or be done as an AE action rather than simple admin action. I will leave to a 2nd opinion but I don't see this as a good idea. Maybe reducing to EC protection, but I can't possibly see going all the way to semi or unprotect.

There has no other way, this is the not the first time it happens, i am asking for semi-protection not as preventive measure, but as last resort agnaist the lack ot interest in make consensus and as a way to avoid a edit war that would make more harm than good.

Reason: The page falls under the sanction of WP:GS/AA and gets its content deleted constantly.
- A newly registered user deletes Vardanyan's relation to Putin[1], gets warned on talk page [2]. Does the same this again[3]
- A non-EC, inactive[4] user (3 years), deletes Vardanyan's relation to Putin[5]
- Yet another newly regostered non-EC user deleted lot's of reliable sources including BBC, Forbes, Washington Post etc.[1][2] The most concerning part is that the user initially deletes 4 sources under the edit name WP:REFMOB[3] and then after 5 minutes, deletes the content saying "any such claims should have multiple sources".[4].

I do give benefit of the doubt that they mean well, but it is starting to become an editing war, and given the article's subject is a controversial figure, people will most likely have strong opinions about him one way or the other. I'm suggesting that the page become semi-protected due to the controversial nature of the subject and due to continuous reverted edits. CarterLennon (talk) 15:17, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
- Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. I mean, it's not like the talk page has been used in anything like the past seven years ... Daniel Case (talk) 21:51, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Repeated IP sock vandalism. Sportsfan 1234 (talk) 13:22, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- (Not an Admin but...) There are few reasons why this unlikely to be granted
- 1.Why extended confirmed? Only issue is IP's, which Semi would take care of. No need to protect more than is absolutely necessary.
- 2.Why indefinite? This is usually used when temporary has been tried and doesn't work, or in Contentous topics. As far as I can see, this is neither. No vandalism before yesterday for 4 months
- 3.Why protect? There is 1 IP that is causing a problem, if they continue it is easier to block them, causing less collaterall damage.
- 4.Where is any sockpuppetry? Do you think it's one of the IP's from 4 months ago?
- Anyways, probably not going to happen for these reasons@Sportsfan 1234 Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 14:41, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Only some of the advice above is correct. It's correct about it being a candidate for WP:SEMI over WP:ECP, and not being one for an indefinite duration. But they are incorrect about there only being "1 IP that is causing a problem," since after 79.140.150.150 was reverted yesterday (diff), another IP, 78.155.53.110, arrived to undo that (diff). Also, this page has been protected 7 times prior. Me Da Wikipedian, it might be best you gain more experience before offering advice on requests here. Thank you. El_C 20:08, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

- Moreover, what is so different from the request above that one was approved and one denied, as the situations look pretty similar Me Da Wikipedian (talk) 21:47, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Although there is no "bright line" when it comes to significant disruption, In my experience it is usually 3 or more IPs/accounts within a really short time period (a day perhaps) or when a single person is engaging in sock puppetry or severe IP-hopping. All admins have their own judgment on what constitutes significant disruption, but it isn't a good thing usually to protect talk pages because that means if the main article is also protected, good-faith non-autoconfirmed users and IPs can't submit edit requests. I didn't look at the above request but that admin probably just had a different judgment call than me. Ping me if disruption continues and I can maybe issue a semi-protection for a couple days. The Night Watch (talk) 21:58, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with The Night Watch here. The threshold for protecting a talk page is much higher than for an article. Reader's see the article, not the talk page so much, and the talk page is what gives editors the ability to correct errors on the main article, via an edit request, so there has to be enough disruption on the talk page that it actually hinders the ability to discuss the article before it is protected. This is why talk pages are very rarely protection, and only as a last resort. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 23:41, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Unregistered user is re-adding copyvio tag to article. My personal assessment is that the tag is unwarranted. Furthermore, the copyvio claims were addressed with good faith by User:Skitach. Unregistered user leaving unwarranted warnings on User:Skitach's talk page. Further assessment of copyvio claim is welcome. el.ziade (talkallam) 17:59, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
- Skitash did nothing to address the copyvio and neither did you. They're all clearly laid out on the talk page and the only thing he did was blank that page. The warning for removal of a copyvio tag on Skitsh's talk page was completely warranted. 2001:8F8:1D2E:CA72:0:0:42A7:AD01 (talk) 02:31, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Declined The IP has pointed out fundamental policy problems. After thanking them, more care needs to be taken to clean out the obvious copyvios that the IP clearly set out on article talk. Several of those points have been refactored but it is likely that the ideas and phrasings are still too closely following a source. Think of it this way: if you were an academic assessing an essay, what would you think after seeing the source? Johnuniq (talk) 03:22, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: For the last week, an IP editor has been deleting information from CKY (band) under the false pretense that the information is incorrect, despite being back by a source.

- I don't know, I'm seeing on the average one or two reverts per week, fairly consistency since the beginning of this year. That tells me that PCP is just creating more work for reviewers and the protection should be changed to semiprotection instead. Removing PCP isn't going to change the workload (except maybe to avoid having to approve the good edits), but at least it's preventing unconstructive edits from becoming visible. ~Anachronist (talk) 07:30, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- And I think that pcp may be creating a little more work "behind the scenes", but it also prevents visible disruption in the first place: things simply don't go live. For my part, I am somewhat loath to semi-protect pages which do get not much disruptive traffic, like in this case. After having had my daily read of our protection policy, this is way under the threshold for semi-protection. If an admin wants to semi-protect: be my guest. Lowering protection to none isn't the way to go, though. Lectonar (talk) 09:55, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

I have not looked close enough to determine if a request to protect this draft is valid. However, I will say this IP is part of a larger UPE sock farm and we will be dealing with their bludgeoning of this draft (and others) unless a protection is made.

- 2024 University of California, Los Angeles pro-Palestinian campus occupation (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: Please reduce it to semi protection. I am a UCLA prof, my students have learned to edit Wikipedia and are keen to contribute. I created the article. But they are new so extended confirmation has blocked their edit access. Noopur28 (talk) 17:56, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Noopur28, the article is protected by an arbitration decision (WP:CT/A-I) and can't really be unprotected. Or rather, if it was technically unprotected so that your students could edit it, their edits would be immediately reverted by others enforcing the still-existing prohibition on their editing.
- Encourating students relatively new to Wikipedia (less than 500 edits or less than 30 days account age) to jump into such a contentious topic is almost certainly a bad idea; you'd either need to supervise them in a way that would make them an army of meatpuppets of your own account, or let them edit without such supervision and end up in various heated Wikipedia conflicts due to their lack of experience.
- The protection serves a useful purpose and those students who actually possess the needed Wikipedia experience to edit such pages are already able to do so.

Reason: Critics have raised concerns about NHA's status as a for-profit company, suggesting that the pursuit of profit may undermine the quality of education offered by NHA schools. They contend that NHA and other for-profit charter school operators prioritize financial gain above the educational needs and outcomes of students.
Furthermore, some critics have expressed reservations about NHA's management practices and treatment of teachers and staff. They claim that NHA employs aggressive marketing strategies to attract students and that there have been reports of high teacher turnover rates within NHA schools. These practices, according to critics, can have a detrimental effect on the quality and stability of education provided to students.
However, it should be noted that NHA also has its fair share of supporters who argue that the organization offers valuable educational alternatives for families, particularly in areas where traditional public schools are facing challenges. Supporters highlight the academic accomplishments of certain NHA schools and advocate for parents' right to choose the most suitable educational option for their children.

Reason: Disruptive editing. This happened over a month ago, On April 2, to be specific. Another IP changed the Nationality to Egyptian-Italian again (even though there is a note saying not to change nationality without discussing on talk page, yet this IP ignored it). I request a Pending-Changes Protection to be placed to the page. 70.50.199.125 (talk) 04:42, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: There has been at best clear bias against, at worst, outright untruths, told against Moira Deeming shown in this biographic article, concerning a so called anti trans rally, which was in facr a "Let Women Speak" rally. If Wikipedia has any interest in accurate and fair representation, to both sides of a narrative, edits should be allowed within the normal rules of offensive language or calls for violence, should be allowed. I hope Wikipedia isn't yet another media site where any conservative views are branded far right and shut down. If so, how revealing, in that clearly the supported narrative or argument is so weak, that it cannot stand up to scrutiny? 192.28.122.75 (talk) 04:38, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

To prevent further disruption, I believe the page should be semi-protected, or fully protected. This will allow only registered editors to make edits, require editor approval for all edits.
Thank you for considering my request.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Hi, I would like to request for this article to be protected for a month, since multiple geotagged users have been vandalising this article for the last three to four weeks. I have reverted all the disruptive edits and have even warned the users to stop the vandalising but to no avail, with the latest vandalising happening earlier today, which I also had to revert. That's why I felt like the only option left was to request a temporary protection of one month. Nori2001 (talk) 13:04, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 15:33, 11 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: In general, this page suffers from frequent additions that violate WP:OR (including improper editorial synthesis), due to a misunderstanding of the article's topic; this is mostly done by IPs and new users. However, there is a persistent IP (actually, a range) that has been trying to add original research since the middle of February; this also includes the removal of inline cleanup tags (such as {{request quotation}} and {{page needed}}) and their refusal to engage in the talk page. This is clearly disruptive behavior; in my opinion, it can be handled by either applying semi-protection, or a range block (I can share relevant diffs for that), or even both.

- I'm guessing he means Alien, which Fish and karate protected to EC some time back. And I would say the reason there hasn't been disruptive editing is BECAUSE of the protection. That said, semi-protection would probably be adequate, rather than EC. Because F&K isn't very active right now, I will leave open for another opinion, but I think semi is fine. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 11:34, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- Done I have lowered it to semi for now due to a lack of activity, and the fact that most of the disruption when the protection was applied was from non-autoconfirmed users. Ping me if disruption resumes. The Night Watch (talk) 13:23, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

- @CNMall41: I'm just looking for requests here to state an accurate reason that describes (at least) the most serious recent disruption (just like edit summaries should state the reason for an edit). There's a wide variety of reasons why pages can be protected by administrators and that includes disruptive levels of unsourced edits (see WP:DE).

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Nearly all edits on this article this month have been to counteract the IP editors who have repeatedly added, or have replaced well established Trillion dollar countries (eg USA, Japan) with, Pakistan, a country that has never gotten anywhere close to 1 Trillion GDP according to the this article's main source (#3), with source 4 on Economy of Pakistan, and any basic web search for "current GDP of Pakistan". For a moment I thought it was possible that the IPs were confusing PPP (Purchasing Power Parity) with GDP, as Pakistan's PPP is 1.57 trillion (2023 est), BUT that is not how this article is presenting the data, or how the other entries are calculated, and the flat out replacement of the USA with Pakistan does not allow any good faith assumptions for any possible PPP/GDP confusion.

- Requesting immediate archiving... Favonian (talk) 05:43, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: There is an ongoing edit war regarding the nationality of Changpeng Zhao. Users keep removing "Chinese" from being listed in the nationality section of his page. A source is provided that verifies he was born in China and resided in China. The page states numerous times that he was born in China and resided in China, but despite this the nationality information keeps being removed. Nationality: "The status of belonging to a particular nation by origin, birth, or naturalization." Bluecenote (talk) 20:04, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
- User(s) blocked: Bluecenote (talk · contribs) blocked by Daniel Case. For one week. Yes, you. Per WP:ROLLINGSTONE we do not consider that magazine a reliable source for information like this. And per WP:3RRNO, no one who took it out was edit warring. And since it was on a BLP, a designated contentious topic area, and it involved nationality, I have blocked you for longer than I might otherwise since you made five reverts in one day. I have also left a CTOPS alert on your talk page, and will leave a CTOPS notice on the article talk page. Daniel Case (talk) 03:29, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: User "Chichifat" has engaged in multiple incidents of vandalism of this page with misleading and inaccurate claims that obviously violate NPOV requirements. There are multiple false claims that are continuously posted by repeatedly undoing content that abides by neutrality requirements.
The vandalism has also removed a vast amount of objectively-sourced information about this organization and its work in Canada.
Please see the Article's talk page for further information. Kindly request that this article be protected due to multiple vandalism incidents by this User "Chichifat" starting April 16, 2024.

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – And IP-hopping person keeps on changing this with no rhyme or reason.

Please alter the following sentence: "Israel's upcoming offensive in Rafah, criticized by the international community, is nearing execution while ceasefire negotiations remain ongoing." However, on the Rafah offensive page, the lede reads "On 6 May 2024, Israel began a military offensive in and around the city of Rafah." Simply put, the Rafah offensive should no longer be characterized in the Israel-Hamas war article as "upcoming" if it is currently ongoing. JohnR1Roberts (talk) 13:31, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: This is a one sided account orchestrated by Paul Hutchinson and Jimmy Rex and others. None of the accusations have been substantiated by court action.

Reason: Full creation protection seems unjustified. The corresponding mainspace page is unprotected and no one has recreated it. I personally do not intend to create an article on this topic but in case an autoconfirmed editor does, it would be reasonable to drop the SALT level to semi to match mainspace. Protecting admin has been desysoped so I brought it here directly. Nickps (talk) 11:54, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Nickps: The SALT does seem justifiable, given three speedy deletions. I do agree with you that full-protection is unnecessary for it, however. Semi-protection would seem to me to be too low; maybe XCP? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 15:44, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Even that sounds wrong to me to be honest. Protecting the draft but not the mainspace article is a weird thing to do. It's essentially directing any spam to mainspace. Since there has been no such spam all this time, I'd argue that the protection has outlived its purpose. But, lowering the protection would still be a positive in any case so I won't get too hung up on the level. Do XCP if you think it's right. Nickps (talk) 16:15, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- It doesn't look like there's been any attempt to re-create the mainspace page after the AfD (which, I should note, post-dates the most recent draft deletion). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:33, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
- Meh This is one of those cases who pop up from time to time where I am always on the fence. Yes, the page shouldn't be protected anymore (or only at lower level); on the other hand there is no expressed need to create a page under said draft. Lectonar (talk) 07:17, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
- Unprotected. Given that there is no consensus that continued protection is necessary and we have a request in front of us to unprotect, it seems unduly bureaucratic to wait for someone to take interest in the topic. Sdrqaz (talk) 02:58, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Those pages have been protected by a user who is no longer active for the past 3 years. My question is, is the indefinite protection still necessary for the time being? I can already see that 2007 and 2012 editions have had their protection settings revoked. Furthermore, I checked the page logs of later ceremonial events and realized that they were protected at least once, except for the current year's page which is presently a redirect.102.159.242.79 (talk) 21:30, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- Pending-changes protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Removed the semi-protection as a trial (except from the 2018 edition, which was already unprotected but had indefinite pending-changes). Edits like Special:Diff/1214855715 and Special:Diff/1222933930 on similar pages make me think that the chance of a return to disruption is pretty possible, but not enough to keep it under semi-protection indefinitely. This seems like the most painless way forward: the pending-changes will expire on their own if there are no issues; if there are issues, it can be done indefinitely.

There is really no reason for this page to be unprotected cuz the IP editors do absolutely nothing except write something dumb on the page OR they add artists to the roster that aren't actually on the roster (there was even an editor who had an account that was so desperate to make his façade that he was part of Opium convincing that he even uploaded his own music to streaming services with the label name "opium" in the notes and then attempted to use this as a "source" for this page).

Request withdrawn? William Graham talk 17:13, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- I'll try to clarify. The article was placed under CRASHlock as a result of the initial trial of it back in 2009-11. After the trial was forcibly terminated by RfC months after it was supposed to end, the semi-protection was put in place to replace it. Odds are good that there may be a case for unprotection at this time, after almost 13 years. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 17:17, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent IP vandalism. [96] [97] [98] [99]
IP user is citing a news page about the Crimean Tatar invasion of New England (one English city established in Crimea) as a source for the English origin of Crimean Tatars. Website holds no credibility [100], and it does not mention anything about English origin of Crimean Tatars rather, it is only about invasion and history of the city. I attempted to engage with the user on the talk page. [101].
Once again, the IP user has provided two sources that make no mention of the English origin of Crimean Tatars. This time, the words "English" or "Anglo-Saxon" don't even appear. I am fully convinced this is not a good faith edit and he is trying to mislead the readers for personal reasons. I believe this user won't stop using fake citations to prove his agenda.

Reason: A redirect which was protected over a decade ago. Is the protection still necessary for the time being?102.156.71.151 (talk) 21:08, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment:: The redirect isn't protected. The target, however, is protected. The last time it was unprotected, it received no edits that weren't vandalism or reversion of vandalism before protection was reinstated. The time before that, it was hit 5 times in two days. Why give them the chance? - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 21:42, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- I am requesting a protection removal from the redirect only. I am not requesting an unprotection from the target page. I know what I am requesting. To be clear, I have visited the editing source of this redirect (not target) and noticed that it is limited for autoconfirmed users. Strangely enough, there isn't a clue in the protection log, except that its protection settings got moved from the target article.102.156.71.151 (talk) 21:56, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- That is odd. I'm not seeing any current protection in the log, but the message is there. Then again, what reason is there to edit this anyway? To turn it into a disambiguation page? - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 23:17, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Then perhaps considering the redirect a deletion if its existence in WP is worthless?102.156.71.151 (talk)

- Also, I am just realizing, if the same title with a hyphen instead of a space isn't protected, why this one is? The title with the hyphen received no edits ever since it got converted into a redirect by buidhe back in 2018.102.156.71.151 (talk) 23:54, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: The page has been under a malicious attack with false and controversial (politically inclined) information being added by multiple editors, which seems to be connected with the current massive spam attack on the Dubai’s real estate industry. To avoid further vandalism, full protection is requested for the page Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 12:10, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Tara.ghorayeb:, as I wrote on your talk page, the article's talk page is there for discussing issues, please use it. --DoebLoggs (talk) 12:17, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- I have requested for protection because if you have a look at the edit history, controversial and politically motivated information has been added to the page which isn't legally proven. Wikipedia isn't a place for the controversial informations and there is a clear pattern for users adding the same information in four different paragraphs - clear proof of vandalism. Therefore, it is important that the information is removed and page is placed under full protection for now. Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 12:42, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

- Can you please look into the matter, because the edits made on the page by users are controversial and the same information has been added in four different paragraphs making it seem as if it's the only important things about the organization - clear proof of vandalism. Repeating the same information over and over again in an article also goes against the Wikipedia rules. It is also against the rules to add controversial and misleading information as Wikipedia is not a place for it. Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 13:04, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- Again, sorry, Tara.ghorayeb, but as mentioned, I can't spare the time for a deeper dive atm. But if those additions are WP:UNDUE, then it wouldn't really be a matter of vandalism or disruption, but rather, a content dispute. In which case, you're welcome to try to persuade other editors in favour of your position on the article talk page (Talk:DAMAC Properties). If still at an impasse after that, then you could make use of a number of dispute resolution requests, such as a Third opinion request. HTH. El_C 13:33, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent removal of sourced content. Recently I reported at WP:ANI that an editor keeps removing information on this article even when it's sourced claiming it to be misinformation. That editor has been blocked from editing the page, but he or she didn't waste anytime making another account and again removing sourced content claiming it to be a privacy request from the actress.[102] Which I highly doubt. I'm not sure if I should ask this here or at WP:ANI, but is it possible for someone to protect that page from not only IP editors, but also user accounts that have made maybe around less than 20 edits?

5 years of PC: I realized that the page is pending-protected according to the protection log. What I don't understand is how its protection settings got moved to swimming (disambiguation) (whose protection may not be necessarily these days due to low IP edit-count) without retaining its protection settings. You admins ought to add a feature to copy protection settings for pages which have to be moved. It is obnoxiously perplexing.197.0.217.64 (talk) 13:10, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Lectonar (talk) 13:17, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

- Found discussion. According to talk:swimming#Requested move 24 October 2017, the page was initially called human swimming, which is now a redirect.

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because the film’s notablitly has been quieted down. The plot currently reads "(Schofield) awakens at night and makes his way through the flare-lit ruins of the town. After evading a German soldier, he discovers a French woman hiding with a presumably orphaned infant." When he is making his way, he is fired upon by several unseen Germans, before he encounters and is chased by the one that charges him, the French woman says she doesn't know who the baby's mother is, so "presumably" could be irrelevant to use. so it could be rephrased to "He is fired upon by Germans and after invading one, find a French woman hiding with an orphan child".

- Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. I see in the recent history some reverts recently. None of them are related to the current conflict; they appear to arise from legitimate discussions about particular sources' assessments or inclusions on the page (a page that gets viewed quite a bit for one not in article space).
I would only protect this page in a situation like the one two years which led to the only protection in the page history: where connected third-party actors are engaging in a concerted effort to alter our judgement on a source without any discussion here.

- Done. El_C 02:00, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: Constant edit warring, particularly by user Malik-Al-Hind, but by IP users as well. The former user fails to stop reinstating edits which, on the talk page, (see Discussion 1 and Discussion 2) there have been discussions against adding such edits. I plan to start an RfC soon, and until that is over there should be full protection until any disputes have been settled, as was recently done on the Gupta Empire article when there was edit warring there. The current consensus reversion, as I recently restored to, is 1225352800. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 22:03, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- Since the article is already indefinitely semi-protected, as you might expect from one so close to the center of what makes a contentious topic area contentious, I ask you for clarification on what protection options you would like. Going to extended-confirmed protection wouldn't keep MaH from editing, as they already have that user right. If edit warring is the problem, perhaps we should go to ECP and 1RR ... I don't think anybody would question that on this article. What do you think? Daniel Case (talk) 22:15, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- I said in my above comment there should be full protection, which I think is appropriate temporarily until all disputes (the inclusion of "Hindustan" in the lead and the inclusion of "Indo-Muslim" in the lead) can be settled. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 22:16, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- OK, I see you asked for full protection, but the way you want it would require doing it indefinitely, and we just don't full-protect articles indefinitely. And frankly, looking at the article history the problems go back longer than the current dispute. I'm thinking more and more that ECP/1RR, under CTOPS authority, is the best option. Daniel Case (talk) 22:18, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- That seems fine, I'll open two RfCs on the mentioned issues once that is added. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 22:21, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- Actually, could you expand on why temporary full protection is not possible here? There has been constant edit warring or disputes over what to include in the lead, and while I'm not saying fully protecting the page will fix it permanently, it will give time to discuss and settle the issues, and especially with an RfC, there can be consensus over whether or not to revert such edits in the case of future edit warring over similar matters. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 23:26, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- Note: Just my 2 cents: Yes, we have some kind of rather slow edit warring, but disruption of the article seems not too pronounced at the moment. Article talk is used to good effect, and discussion is ongoing. Full protection would be overkill. Lectonar (talk) 06:17, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- Honestly, right now the only problematic user is the mentioned Malik-Al-Hind, who really doesn't get the point that he can't always be right. I started an RfC on one of the issues that was edit warred against, which should eventually resolve that dispute. What do you think about temporarily blocking MaH for edit warring, which would presumably resolve most of the issues? Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 06:21, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- If you want to go that way we would have: Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. With just one disrupting user, (full) protection would be like shooting sparrows with cannon. Lectonar (talk) 06:25, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- I know full protection is not appropriate when it is only one user causing problematic edits — however, this did not appear to be the case when I initially requested protection as there were recent problematic edits by multiple users, but this has only persisted by the sole user. I don't have time now to start a report on AN3 but do we really have to go through all the formalities just to recognize constant edit warring by a user? Just look at the revision history of the article. Flemmish Nietzsche (talk) 06:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

I already had a long discussion on the disputed topic in Maratha Confederacy talk page and quoted the information from WP:RS sources still he is vandalizing the info and reverting my edits. Also this user has been previously blocked for adding unsourced information (WP:OR) and edit disputes. Plz help me and see to it. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 11:47, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

- What do you think is a reliable source? You seem to cite WP:RS every time you disagree with someone's edits, despite most of the time the edits being fine. I recently reverted your reverts on Ministry of Interior (Iraq) because an IP added good and cited content which you reverted by just saying, "see WP:RS". I don't think Mohammad Umar Ali is in the right either here, as he even has an ongoing and seemingly truthful sockpuppet investigation against him, but you can't always cite WP:RS anytime an IP edits a page or someone adds content you don't like.

- 1st source The Marathas New Cambridge history of India Vol2 Part 4 pg 138 mentions
Maratha brief occupation of Punjab see the quote: After yet another Abdali invasion, the Marathas, under Nana Saheb’s brother, Ragunath Rao, and Malhar Rao Holkar, returned from Malwa and the Deccan in the campaigning season of 1757-58. A Maratha invasion of the Punjab followed, which coincided with the much more significant Sikh rebellion. The Maratha Punjab adventure was brief; the Ragunath Rao expedition left little administration behind, and the Sikhs successfully resisted any attempt to set up long-term Maratha authority.
This clearly says Marathas briefly occupied Punjab and the exact limits can be inferred from my second source JL Mehta Advance study in History of India pg 234-237 - My 2nd WP:RS source JL Mehta's Advance Study in Indian History pg 237 clearly says quoting;
Thus nature did provide a golden opportunity to the Marathas to establish their sway over whole of Punjab and northwest India, upto Attock and Khyber pass, although the spell of their rule proved very shortlived.
This clearly indicates Maratha Empire/Confederacy ruled till Khyber Pass. - <meta />
- 3rd WP:RS source Pletcher, Kenneth (2010). The History of India pg 198 quoting;
Thus in 1757 Ahmad Shah's son Timur, appointed governor of Punjab, was forced to retreat from Lahore to Peshawar under the force of attacks from Sikhs and Marathas.
- 4th WP:RS Source;The state at war in South Asia page 55; quoting:
The Marathas attacked soon after and, with some help from the Sikhs, managed to capture Attock, Peshawar, and Multan between April and May 1758.
SEE the word "CAPTURED" - Additional: The Marathas New Cambridge History of India Vol2 Part 4 states This is for Areal limit of the Empire/Confederacy (same source); Quoting:
First, we shall look at the expanding areas controlled by the Marathas, and there were many. Maratha leaders pushed into Rajasthan, the area around Delhi, and on into the Punjab. They attacked Bundelkund and the borders of Uttar Pradesh. Further east, the Marathas attacked Orissa and the borders of Bengal and Bihar.
- And Same book pg 138 states; quoting; This is the source for protectors of Delhi throne pg 138 here is the quotation:
For the Marathas, probably the two most significant events of the whole chaotic period in Delhi were a treaty in 1752, which made them protector of the Mughal throne (and gave them the right to collect chauth in the Punjab), and the civil war of 1753, by which the Maratha nominee ended up on the Mughal throne.

Reason: Temporary semi-protection: I am requesting protection for the "Call of Duty: Black Ops 6" Wikipedia page due to ongoing issues that are severely affecting its quality and reliability. These issues include:
-Edit Wars: The page has been the subject of frequent and disruptive edit wars. Users are continuously reverting each other's changes, which has resulted in instability and an inconsistent presentation of information.
-Spread of Misinformation: Many edits include inaccurate information, rumors, and unverified claims about the game. This misinformation misleads readers and undermines the credibility of the page.
-Vandalism: There have been multiple instances of vandalism where users deliberately add false or nonsensical information. This further degrades the quality of the page and the experience for those seeking legitimate information.
Protecting this page will help ensure that it remains a reliable source of information and prevent further disruption caused by these issues. Thank you for considering this request.

- Semi-protected for a period of one month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. El_C 20:55, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, that was a small mistake on my part. I did not add "murder" - that was added by an IP. There were two IP edits I should've reverted, but I accidentally only reverted one, so "murder" was leftover by an IP. I'll try to be more careful next time and revert both. Thank you.

- The diff of the latest edit shows quite clearly the issue. Maybe you got mixed up? El_C 20:47, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- I don't understand. IPs keep changing it to "murder" and I switch it back to "killing" so it follows our MOS. They also keep adding biased language about the suspect's immigration status. Can you please help me understand what I'm doing wrong? Gottagotospace (talk) 20:44, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

The quote below is misleading in that Plan B can prevent a fertilized egg from implantation. This information is found on the box of Plan B. Ms Greene's use of the term "baby" is understood by most to mean a human being in germinal form. I would like the entire quote removed. Barring that then adding that Plan B can prevent implantation of a fertilized egg. Thanks. "In 2021, Greene falsely claimed that the Plan B contraceptive "kills a baby in the womb"; Plan B actually prevents ovulation and thus prevents pregnancy, instead of terminating a pregnancy.[168][169]" 99.11.248.241 (talk) 17:04, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Given the passage can be sourced to the references cited (the "[168][169]" in the excerpt above), it's unlikely to be removed. I'd also strongly suggest finding a less-volatile topic area. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 17:31, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Not done. The phrase "understood by most" above is a made-up fact that would need backing up, and therefore this isn't a valid rationale to remove the quotation. There may be a fertilized egg that isn't yet implanted, but there is no "baby in the womb" because nothing is attached to the womb. This is in fact what Plan B is intended to prevent. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:07, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Hi, I made this page to serve as an informative guide to the people of Cebu City and Cebu Province in general. It took me a very long time to compile all of this and publish it here in Wikipedia (I am a Local Historian by the way). However, as I check this page from time to time, I found out that some users has disruptively edited the entries in this page by changing my original template and format as well as editing names of historical personalities into a Spanish-style format (First Name, Last Name and Maiden Name) rather than the current Filipino Name Format (First Name, Middle Name (Maiden Name) and Surname or Last Name). Also, some streets which are Spanish in nature were "hispanized" like one time, when Juan Luna Street was converted to "Calle Juan Luna". Also, some of the users were deleting middle (maiden) name without any reasons. I don't know if they are too historically attached to the article but they start editing the page like its they are the ones who created it. I just want my page to be protected. I'm tired of editing this page which was marred by their inputs (I am editing this page while requesting this, 5/26/24). I hope you can grant me that peace of mind with regards to this page. Thank You!. AdmiralProudmore (talk) 06:45, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: The original reason for semi-protection was the increased traffic and subsequent vandalism the page experienced in 2022. (Around the time of her sexuality being news.) Significant time has passed since then, and there is no good reason to maintain the semi-protection so many years later. Notakeyring (talk) 20:16, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- @ComplexRational: as protecting admin per the bright yellow instruction at the top of this section. Favonian (talk) 20:26, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
- Not unprotected Looking at the edit history and page views since then, as well as another recent bout of coverage following the subject's 21st birthday, it seems likely that unprotecting the page now would bring about significant disruptive edits and call for reprotection, so I believe maintaining the current protection is justified.

- Not done – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. Talk:Bharwad is not protected. Favonian (talk) 10:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: You can give this article some pending changes protection. I see a persistent amount of inappropriate humorous edits to this article (it is likely to be vandalism, but I am not sure) by IP editors, but I doubt that it is enough for semi-protection.
I do not even know if it is protected or not, since when I add the template for a protection icon/banner, it shows me nothing, not even if the article has pending changes protection.
The last time it was protected was from 18 May 2023 to 18 August 2023, and it could have had pending changes protection either in the meantime or after the expiration of the semi-protection. I do not know.
In summary, to curb current disruptive editing by IP editors, I think pending changes protection (to review all edits by new and unregistered users before they are visible to everyone) should be applied to reduce the need to block IP addresses (and many different addresses are involved there too). CarlFilip19 (talk) 11:18, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. The article is already pending-changes protected (you cam see this via "view history", and then "view logs for this page". Lectonar (talk) 12:23, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: The current protection status of the page limits the ability of a broader range of contributors to edit and improve its content. This restriction is particularly concerning given the page's apparent lack of political neutrality.
The article on "Whataboutism" exhibits a significant bias, predominantly reflecting a Western perspective. This bias skews the representation of whataboutism, often highlighting its use in contexts that criticize non-Western entities while downplaying or ignoring similar tactics employed by Western actors. This selective representation not only undermines the article's objectivity but also contravenes Wikipedia's core principle of maintaining a neutral point of view.
Allowing more contributors to participate in editing this page can facilitate a more balanced and comprehensive discussion. By reducing the protection level, we can ensure that diverse perspectives are represented, thereby enhancing the article's credibility and adherence to Wikipedia's standards of neutrality.
Thank you for considering this request. Your attention to ensuring the neutrality and accuracy of Wikipedia's content is greatly appreciated. 147.32.27.11 (talk) 14:29, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: (Hope I'm doing this at the right place) - 12 years ago the title "Elijah Collins" was salted.

Reason: This page was deleted and redirected to Socialist Appeal (UK, 1992) following discussion at WP:Articles for deletion/Revolutionary Communist Party (UK, 2024) and there is also an active RM on the redirect target.

- In WP:Articles for deletion/Revolutionary Communist Party (UK, 2024) discussion the dominant opinion was to keep it the result was to keep it! Then it was vandalized by making it a redirect.

- The decision was not to "keep" the page as was, but to "keep and revert", which meant returning it to the status as the Socialist Appeal page. There wasn't a consensus for retaining any sort of content at the Revolutionary Communist Party page, and that is also the subject of the active RM. I suggest you try to argue your case there rather than persistently recreating a page that has been redirected. — Amakuru (talk) 13:53, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Not True
- In your opinion what should happen for this page to exist? Because the situation clearly changed. In which talk page should it be decided??

- 1. If you are questioning the consensus of the AfD, this is not the right place. Contesting the AfD should have been done at WP:DRV, but the current requested move discussion functions nicely for this purpose now.
- 2. Right now what you can do is:
- demonstrate that the new name is the new common name in the current requested move discussion, see WP:NAMECHANGE. For this to work, there should be a sustained coverage in reliable, third party sources, of the new party, and not just for these few days since the refounding. Given the long-term significance of the previous incarnation, one may likely argue that the LTS of the old name trumps the new name until after the elections is over. For many other topics requesting name change here, we typically advise people to wait for at least three months before requesting for a move. Failing which,
- start a new article, in this case, a new draft and wait for it to be reviewed and accepted at Articles for Creation given the clear meatpuppetry and COI activity surrounding the topic.

Reason: Hello everyone. I kindly ask you if it is possible to make a specific section of the "Fortune Global 500" page non-editable and specifically "Breakdown by country/territory". I kindly ask you to read the talk page of the page. In the last month there have been continuous attempts at editing CONTRARY to the fundamental principles of Wikipedia.
Specifically, the SOURCE cited "Global 500". Fortunes. Retrieved October 23, 2023" EXPLICITLY indicates that, for 2023, the United States is first with 136 companies and China is second with 135 companies.
Some editors continue to change the figure to indicate that China has 142 companies. In fact, they add 7 Taiwanese companies to the 135 companies in China.
However, this is contrary to what is reported in the SOURCE and allows a POLITICALLY MOTIVATED SUBJECTIVE POINT OF VIEW to prevail.
Taiwan is considered a territory and therefore its companies should not be added to those of China.
I therefore ask you to leave the data for 136 companies for the United States and 135 for China unchanged and ineditable.
This request is driven only by technical considerations, relating to RESPECT for the principles of Wikipedia and not political ones. In fact, Taiwan is not a de jure country.

Specifically, the SOURCE cited "Global 500". Fortunes. Retrieved October 23, 2023" EXPLICITLY indicates that, for 2023, the United States is first with 136 companies and China is second with 135 companies.
Some editors continue to change the figure to indicate that China has 142 companies. In fact, they add 7 Taiwanese companies to the 135 companies in China.
However, this is contrary to what is reported in the SOURCE and allows a POLITICALLY MOTIVATED SUBJECTIVE POINT OF VIEW to prevail.
Taiwan is considered a territory and therefore its companies should not be added to those of China.
I therefore ask you to leave the data for 136 companies for the United States and 135 for China unchanged and ineditable.
This request is driven only by technical considerations, relating to RESPECT for the principles of Wikipedia and not political ones. In fact, Taiwan is not a de jure country.
Thank you. Chrisques5 (talk) 23:17, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Chrisques5: Protection is page-level and cannot be done for specific sections. Even if this were possible, you requested this on the page for requesting edits for the page. You want to request protection at WP:RFPP/I. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 23:20, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I am hoping someone is able to assist me in updated the 2024 Miss Arizona USA's name on the winners list. Her legal name is actually just the letter K, however someone posted Kristina which is incorrect. If you refer to the Miss Arizona USA's social media pages you can see they also have her name listed as just the letter K.
If you need any communications from Miss Arizona USA herself, please let me know.

Reason: There's much more detail in my ANI report from earlier today, but tl;dr an unregistered user has been adding the same information about PredictIt's Better Business Bureau rating to the page for the past three years. I believe Better Business Bureau is not a reliable source because its rating depends on user reports, and it seems other users who have undone this IP's edits in the past think the same.
Since this user's IP constantly changes, both warning and blocking are ineffective, and so I've been referred here by replies on ANI. Iiii I I I (talk) 20:05, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Azercell Telecom LLC is a leading telco company in Azerbaijan serving more than 5 million customers. Therefore, Azercell’s public image is very crucial issue for us as it has direct impact on how our customers, partners and other stakeholders perceive us. In order to protect our image, we constantly publish updates and share important news on public channels including Azercell’s Wikipedia page. Our Wikipedia page is one of the go-to sources of our stakeholders while building partnerships or collaborations. Thus, we frequently update our Wikipedia page with relevant and updated information. However, we recently face some issues where some Wikipedia users make irrelevant edits in our page misleading page visitors to inaccurate or false information. Continuous disruptive edits have compromised the quality and accuracy of the information provided. Since it is our priority to protect our brand as a leading telecommunications company and ensure our Wikipedia page remains a reliable source of information for readers, we request for page protection allowing for more controlled and accurate updates by verified contributors to avoid any attacks or biased edits made by some groups aiming to harm our image.

Change "An electric current is a flow of charged particles,[1][2][3] such as electrons or ions, moving through an electrical conductor or space." to "An electric current is the flow of a charge around an electrical conductor or through space." Reason: The DRIFT section lower down has it right. Up here, it's very wrong. Wiki should not promote wrongness or contradict itself. Please see here: "Drift speed The mobile charged particles within a conductor move constantly in random directions, like the particles of a gas. (More accurately, a Fermi gas.) To create a net flow of charge, the particles must also move together with an average drift rate. Electrons are the charge carriers in most metals and they follow an erratic path, bouncing from atom to atom, but generally drifting in the opposite direction of the electric field. The speed they drift at can be calculated from the equation: v = I n A Q {\displaystyle v={\frac {I}{nAQ}}} where v {\displaystyle v} is the drift velocity I {\displaystyle I} is the electric current n {\displaystyle n} is number of charged particles per unit volume (or charge carrier density) A {\displaystyle A} is the cross-sectional area of the conductor Q {\displaystyle Q} is the charge on each particle. Typically, electric charges in solids flow slowly. For example, in a copper wire of cross-section 0.5 mm2, carrying a current of 5 A, the drift velocity of the electrons is on the order of a millimetre per second. To take a different example, in the near-vacuum inside a cathode-ray tube, the electrons travel in near-straight lines at about a tenth of the speed of light. Any accelerating electric charge, and therefore any changing electric current, gives rise to an electromagnetic wave that propagates at very high speed outside the surface of the conductor. This speed is usually a significant fraction of the speed of light, as can be deduced from Maxwell's equations, and is therefore many times faster than the drift velocity of the electrons. For example, in AC power lines, the waves of electromagnetic energy propagate through the space between the wires, moving from a source to a distant load, even though the electrons in the wires only move back and forth over a tiny distance. The ratio of the speed of the electromagnetic wave to the speed of light in free space is called the velocity factor, and depends on the electromagnetic properties of the conductor and the insulating materials surrounding it, and on their shape and size." 2003:E3:EF1C:62AA:25FC:EBCA:B8B7:B6EE (talk) 08:33, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

- Declined I'm not entirely clear this is, in fact, vandalism. Statements are added that XYZ is "currently" the MLA and then removed. Without any context, this may simply be an editor (clumsily) applying MOS:RELTIME. The "current" MLA is listed and then removed, however, that MLA was only just elected two weeks ago and it's not clear the LA has officially opened yet, ergo, he might not actually be appropriate for the infobox as he hasn't been formally invested into office (?), I don't know. These are all things that would need to be discussed at the Talk page. But there's no discussion. There's possibly some 3RR occurring, but that needs to be reported at the noticeboard and doesn't, by itself, justify protection. Maybe I'm missing something, in which case let me know.
