Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent disruptive editing – One year after semi-protection, IP editors keep changing information and misinterpret actual expressions of the television series.

Rings (2017 film)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Three separate anonymous users, all from roughly the same place, have routinely been delinking the name Samara Morgan in the cast list. I do not believe it is unreasonable to keep the name linked, but each and every time it is removed it is without an edit summary and accompanies no other changes. I have politely warned all three IPs, and would only have asked for protection after one more round with relinking the name, but I Geolocated them and they are all from just about the same place in Brazil.

See WP:BRD. clpo13(talk) 15:33, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
So why was there no discussion provided by the people reverting, if they're following the (optional) policy? 213.205.198.74 (talk) 15:36, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
You want to make the change, so you have to justify it. Edit summaries are not a substitute for talk page discussion (see WP:REVTALK). clpo13(talk) 15:40, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
So every single edit needs to be justified on the talk page for each relevant article? I'll think you'll find it's the one's engaged in a revert war that should be justifying their uncommented reversions. 213.205.198.74 (talk) 15:41, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
If an edit is challenged (by reversion), then yes, it needs to be justified and editors should come to consensus before editing further. clpo13(talk) 15:43, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Not sure what's going on, but an IP editor has seemingly posted a vandal-ish statement on my talk page a few times in the previous few hours. To prevent this for a bit, can my talk page be semi-ed for 6–12 hours?. (Whoever this vandal is seems to hop IPs per my talk page's edit history, so semi may be preferred over blocking the IP.)

Indefinite semi-protection: Pending changes protection added in July for one month in response to frequent poor edits (unsourced, poorly written, etc.) from unregistered users. This did not stop the poor edits from happening, so temporary semi-protection was put in place. This solved the problem, but the article's semi-protection expired a few days ago, and...surprise, surprise...the poor edits from unregistered users have resumed (~30 such edits have been reverted within the past two days). The best solution for this never-ending issue is to reinstate semi-protection for the article and to make it indefinite. Jackdude101 (Talk) 23:56, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Jackdude101, I appreciate this is a long-term issue, we can always escalate to indefinite if it persists next year. Euryalus (talk) 00:48, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: After Jason Todd was protected because an IP-hopper was edit warring with disruptive edits made to the userbox, the user started doing the exact same thing at Deathstroke. And after the user was reverted again by multiple editors, this suspiciously brand new account picked up where the disruptive editor left off. In short, persistent disruptive editing.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Req 30 day semi. Persistent introduction of changes that are fantastically contrary to MOS:TV by multiple IP hoppers. Attempts to discuss have been ignored. This is part of a grander problem across a variety of Indian TV shows produced by Colors TV. The only reason why I'm not semi-ing it myself is because I took the initiative to try to open discussion on the matter so I'm worried that I might be considered involved. I think that's a bit silly, but if you want to drop me a note and weigh in with your thoughts, I'm interested in hearing them.

Temporary Full protection: Return of problematic editors. Check talk page protection initiated under false claims and continuous tag-teaming that isn't directed towards strengthening the article. Current issue is simple removal of cited small sentence with non-related tags.

The requester is the problematic IP-hopper who geolocates to Kerala, India. Please see Talk:Social work#IP-hopper Cheers Jim1138 (talk) 19:22, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
As always twisting the facts, disregarding policies, tag-teaming, online bullying and racism - these were already proved from related ANI discussions, pertaining to the article. Other discussions also prove there intent to be malicious and partially due to ignorance about the subject. Check Talk:Social work#IP-hopper and the history of revisions and the process, it is good time-pass to see how wikipedia still could be used for personal objectives. I wish and hope this sort of manipulative behavior would be handled according to wikipedia procedures and not turn a blind eye. This will only bring followers and clouts. Today too with the raising vandalism I checked a previously involved problematic editor's page and was devastating to see how much the person has changed from a coolheaded diplomatic to a rampant one. But their contributions cant be neglected, that too is there. But I feel that shouldn't license them to ignore all best practices and showcase WP:DICKERY. I would say a 3 months full protection with reversions of Jim1138 and any possible actions from other previously negatively involved editors actions is a good decision, reviewing the history.

Unprotection: (For move protection only) No further reason to move this page. . N-C16 (talk) 09:15, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

@JamesBWatson:--Ymblanter (talk) 07:39, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
I am not sure why I was pinged. The current edit protection was applied by BU Rob13. The move protection dates from 5 February 2011, applied by Mattinbgn, when the article was titled "Severe Tropical Cyclone Yasi", before being moved to its present title. The protection was moved to the present title when the article was moved, on 24 February 2011, more than three years since I had anything to do with the article. My only involvement was applying semi-protection in 2014, but it expired in May 2015, and I have had no part in any protection, editing, or anything else to do with the article since then. (Incidentally, I am also not at all sure what is being asked for. Does "Unprotection: (For move protection only)" mean that only move protection should be lifted? Or does it mean that editing protection should be lifted, so that only move protection stays in place? Either way, I don't understand why "No further reason to move this page" would be a reason for the change.) The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 08:13, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
I believe this request is for lifting only the move protection, but just in case, I'll note that the semi-protection is the result of a prolific sockpuppeteer targeting this page and I would oppose lifting it early. Please ping me again if the semi-protection winds up under discussion here and I can elaborate further. ~ Rob13Talk 08:24, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Poles

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – I realise from one perspective this appears cheeky since I have engaged in a battle this past two days, but the fact is that one IP (or IP range) who has his own concept of what "related people" constitutes is constantly adding unsourced items to the infobox category. Prior to my bold intervention, I checked every talk page archive to see if or where this was discussed, and it hasn't even been broached over the years. My purpose for this temporary measure is merely to encourage this IP to slow down and use the talk page rather than popping up to restore his version any time he wishes and leaving sarcastic remarks in the edit summary. Note I am not advocating my preffered version is best but there are issues and I am happy to discuss them (and will begin this with my next edit from this post). The other thing is, I have no phobia for IPs and I too have for one reason or another edited when logged out (nothing illegitimate), but when one wishes to assert himself with such a stiff neck then it would be nice if he at least created an account or logged in so as to come in from behind the mask. All we have at the moment is a cloak and dagger and this makes direct communication awkward!!!!!!!. OJ (talk) 14:44, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

Similar reason for the protection of Malaysia national under-23 football team and Malaysia national under-22 football team, as well the previous protection of Malaysia national football team. The IPs disruptive behaviour has been long overdue and I suggest all four pages should be protect for an indefinite of time to prevent further damages to the articles.

Temporary semi-protection for auto-confirmed users only: A user has begun changing the introduction constantly without having a proper discussion or looking at the sources published on the page. This page should be "temporarily protected for auto-confirmed users only" who will not disrupt the introduction that has been accepted by established users, some who have been on Wikipedia for six years. Yes I know by doing this, I will not be able to edit it but I do not intend to make edits to the page. I have been the only one reverting this user's edits because not many people frequent that page. The user who continues to do this has the term, "Desi" in their user name and it appears to be that this is the only page they edit, which is fine but they shouldn't try to control it, especially without having a proper discussion. If this can't be done, could someone please tell them to stop because they don't seem to listen to what I say. I don't understand how one can defy the sources published, including removing one source, on the page and think they can get away with it. I find it deeply offensive that they are saying I'm discriminating some South Asian ethnic groups, I don't know how I'm discriminating because none of the edits are discriminating, if they were they wouldn't be on Wikipedia in the first place.

Naagin (TV series)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – For the past few months the article has been polluted by incompetent edits from a sock operator (Vicky12333) as well as a slew of IP editors who keep bringing the article out of alignment with MOS:TV and WP:SLASH. Editors delete prose in favor of ambiguous slashes between character names for example here, where instead of prose that explains that an actor is portraying a dual role, slashes are restored, which makes the resulting information ambigous. I've opened several discussions on the talk page about various issues noting what established protocols are, but none of the disruptive editors have participated in discussion, and they are not likely to.

Requesting 1 month semi to inspire discussion from the IPs. The disruptions are irritating and completely ass-backwards, and given the weirdness of the changes, it's very likely that some of the IPs are Vicky12333 editing while logged out. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:27, 13 October 2016 (UTC)

Reduction in protection level: From full protection to no protection. This is a redirect page that has been indefinitely protected since 2008.

Pending-changes protected indefinitely. Thanks, JLD at Walmart, for your transparency, and Mlpearc for the helpful note—though I must say, the article is definitely a perennial vandalism magnet, and I would therefore argue that any page protection applied to this article would not be pre-emptive. I waffled back and forth a bit on whether to semi protect or pending protect. There's a high vandalism-to-helpful edits ratio, and it can be argued that semi protection would save some editors' time. Yet, I do see some good anonymous contributions, so I want to keep that an option. I've followed the precedent laid out in the protection log and reapplied pending changes, indefinitely. Of course, if vandalism becomes rampant, temporary semi protection can help solve that. Airplaneman ✈ 22:16, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite full protection: Persistent vandalism – Nearly all the 42 edits in the past 30 days have been vandalism or its reversion. This page is a perennial magnet for vandalism. It has been protected many times before, generally for much too short times, in the mistaken hope, I suppose, that things will improve. Instead, vandalism simply resumes, starting the cycle over. Therefore requesting permanent protection. Hertz1888 (talk) 21:48, 12 October 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I understand that Donald Trump Access Hollywood controversy is only PC protected, but since this is an actual biography, and there's little to no helpful editing going on, I think semi protection would work better here.

Orphaned files

Full-protection:User continuously removes orphaned fair use tags even thought the files are not used in any articles.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 12:08, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

Files aren't orphaned. They were part of PFC CSKA - Sofia's page which The TV Boy redirected to PFC CSKA Sofia before the page became protected. Those files are part of a content dispute and were uploaded by me because they support facts which were mentioned in the page. I'm going to ask for dispute resolution once the protection expires (10 days from now) which makes the files important because they prove my statements.--Ivo (talk) 13:27, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
Non-free files are not used in any article as of now - this means that they are orphaned. This is what the policy says, see WP:F5. If you have the files for yourself, than there is no need for them to exist on Wikipedia, they are still not used anyware as of now. The article your trying to create is just a fork of a different article on the same subject.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 13:35, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
WP:F5 says: This applies to images and other media that are not under a free license or in the public domain and that are not used in any article. These may be deleted after being identified as such for more than seven days or immediately if the image's only use was on a deleted article and it is very unlikely to have any use on any other valid article. This includes previous revisions of the image. Reasonable exceptions may be made for images uploaded for an upcoming article.
And as I already mentioned, I'm going to ask for dispute resolution when the protection of PFC CSKA - Sofia is over. It won't be clear which files will remain in the page until there is a final resolution of the dispute. Also, both files are certainly not very unlikely to have any use on any other valid article. Quite the contrary - they are quite likely to be represented in a future page or a future version of an existing page because they are from a trustworthy source and are relevant to the article.--Ivo (talk) 14:00, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
This tag is a marker that the files are not used in any article from the date the tag is put into - which they are not, which means they are orphaned. After seven days they will be delated, because they are non free, and because they are not included in the article they are intended to, simply because the article does not exist. They are unlikely to be used in any other article, simply because they are irrelevant to any other article. The files are not a source for anything - they are files, they do not source anything, they represent brands and help the reader to understand the topic better. Sources represent other things - such as organisations, media, companies, etc. What you are doing right now is just removing the tag because you don't like it - which is vandalism.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 14:11, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
And again you are doing something just to "make the rules work for you" - misinterpreting and faking facts and sources. Doing such does not prove you right - it only futher proves that you are just doing it because you don't like the information written.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 14:13, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
Both files were part of a previous version of a page which is under protection until 24th September. They are relevant to the article because they are from a neutral source and support a statement which led to a content dispute. Another user who has a different viewpoint is doing his utmost to delete the files because he doesn't like their content. Furthermore, he tried he remove my previous request for protection. --Ivo (talk) 14:18, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
There is already a request for protection of the files - I do not understand what you are doing, other than duplicating the request for no reason. The thing you are doing is not a request at all, thats why I am moving the replays, because they are on the one and the same topic. You are just trying to twist the topic so that the files can be kept, but I already explaned to you very clearly how the policy works.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 14:24, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
You are requesting a deletion which is completely different. I'm requesting a protection. You removed the files from the page just a few minutes before it became protected which explains why they should not be deleted. The files are very likely to be used in PFC CSKA Sofia, PFC CSKA - Sofia, assuming the pages get separated, something I will ask for, or in another similar page because they support an indisputable fact and are from reliable source. You have no rights to say what is relevant and what is irrelevant when you are taking part in the content dispute. A third opinion or eventually even arbitration will determine the future content of the articles. --Ivo (talk) 14:48, 14 October 2016 (UTC)--Ivo
I am requesting the same thing, for God's sake! Don't you know English? Read the title "Requests for page protection". I am requesting the pages for the files to be protected, so that you do not remove the tag! The files will be delated after 7 days via the policy, I can't request them to get delated immediately here, there is no such thing.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 14:54, 14 October 2016 (UTC)

These files were part of a previous version of a page which is currently under protection. They are relevant to the article because they are from a neutral source and prove a a key fact.

Pending changes level 1 protection
Unnotable and unsourced addititions by anonymous IP-address contributors (in good faith), usually as a means of self-promotion. The changes are infrequent enough to not warrant semi-protection, but still happen multiple times a week and have started to disrupt cleaning up the list by requiring to keep an eye on the article every day. For consideration, I am also a major contributor to the article, so semi-protection would not be appropriate. 80.221.159.67 (talk) 16:07, 15 October 2016 (UTC) (edited: 16:12, 15 October 2016 (UTC))
Declined This is borderline of being too high activity for pending changes, but moreover, the average reviewer won't know what isn't notable and is likely to just pass the edits through without realizing the issue. I'd be willing to semi-protect the article, but that would indeed block you out as well. Would you be willing to register an account to contribute through semi-protection? ~ Rob13Talk 17:19, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
@BU Rob13: no Declining to edit with a registered user account, so I will decline the semi-protection as well. Using Wikipedia:Edit requests process for semi-protected edits could be too hindering.
In regards to reviewers, if a list entry to be added to the article has a Wikipedia article, it is probably notable for inclusion per WP:CSC. I still understand the issue for reviewers, as some level of technical expertise is required for a full review. Moreover, the list has lots of unnotable entries already, so this could confuse the reviewers even further.
I also acknowledge that Wikipedia:Editnotice would not be appropriate.
Regardless, I will accept the outcome of this declination of protection. 80.221.159.67 (talk) 17:54, 15 October 2016 (UTC) (edited: 18:01, 15 October 2016 (UTC))

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing of a newbie. Mjbmr (talk) 09:50, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Declined I have warned the user on their talk page. I actually believe that the editor is probably correct that the article's subject isn't notable; however, as the PROD is contested it should be sent to AfD if the user still wishes to delete it. At this stage I don't think it should be protected as the policy does not appear to have been explained to the user before. I will watch the article for a while and if the edit war continues will consider further action. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 11:37, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
AustralianRupert I have the problem with user adding "Although this was not actually true" which is not provable, other parts I've added are actually in the news, please check the references. We don't add what we believe it's true or not, we rely on notable references. If you don't believe the article is notable delete it, this was inspirational. Mjbmr (talk) 12:11, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Permanent semi-protection: I had previously asked for permanent PP as IP editors and socks persist in adding COPYVIO content copy/pasted from company's website; this was declined by User:KrakatoaKatie in this dif. They came back again and again added copyvio content that needs to be removed and then again revdelled by someone. Entirely predictable and a waste of everyone's time involved, including mine in reposting this and tracking down what happened to the last request. I am unwatching the article. To hell with this.

René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle

Temporary semi-protection. Whenever I see La Salle at the pending changes list, I know before I click "review" that I'm about to revert vandalism. Pending changes protection is supposed to be for articles that get a mix of both good and bad edits from new and/or anonymous users, and La Salle doesn't qualify. Since June, there has been precisely one change to the text by such an editor that was retained, and it was this take-it-or-leave-it bit that's since been undone. If no pending edits are ever accepted, it's a waste of our time having to manually revert edits that semi-protection would prevent. RunnyAmiga ※ talk 18:34, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protected indefinitely. As stated above, PC1 was not accomplishing anything. Previous semi-protection was as lengthy as a year. With only one good-faith edit since June, and years of reverted vandalism and otherwise disruptive edits, indefinite seemed justified. — Maile (talk) 23:59, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protection: A wide variety of IPs keep editing the page reverting it back to a style that User:CCamp2013 and I determined did not violate W:OR. The IPs disagree, and has led to numerous debates on talk pages regarding a variety of IPs, CCamp, myself, and a few other users. The IP spamming edit is unlikely to stop due to the edits being addressed offsite. I request that this page gets temporarily protected until the IPs move on.

Temporary semi-protection, then indefinite pending changes protection. Yesterday, User:Ymblanter reacted to my RFPP report of the franchise's main article by semi-protecting it and rangeblocking the person responsible for the attacks. I failed to check the series' individual pages like I should have; they weren't on my radar because unlike the main article, they aren't pending-changes protected. Sure enough, each of these three articles has been seeing the same sort of crystal ball problems so they each ought to get the same week's semi-protection then the same indefinite PC1.

Syrian Democratic Forces

Semi-protection: High level of IP edit abusive flagging and edit warring. 2A1ZA (talk) 12:20, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

The IP address 213.74.186.109 (talk) is constantly, and for months now, putting up an obviously abusive flags on the Syrian Democratic Forces article and edit-warring to keep them up, apparently with the intent to taint the topic as such for readers, without offering any reasoning for the respective flags on the talk page, and sabotages the attempt to delete the abusive flags by edit-warring undoing. Does not answer any more on the talk page of the article, which by now has several sections for discussing exactly this problem by other users, but all pleading with 213.74.186.109 does not meke him/her to at least engage in discussion.

The issue was reported before, however the abusive behaviour of IP 213.74.186.109 did not change. cc Euryalus

Declined The main combatants in this content dispute are all autoconfirmed so semi-protection would not help. Consider dispute resolution. If consensus was established (I don't see an establishment of consensus at the talk page, just arguing between two users; but the reverts by multiple people suggest that there is a consensus), it would be helpful if the others would join the talk page conversation to make the consensus clear. If that happens, and the one user persists in not accepting the consensus, some kind of action report against them may be necessary. MelanieN (talk) 23:33, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

Dear Zindagi

Temporary semi-protection. This movie is a constant presence at pending changes with the same junk showing up over and over and over. There are attempts to remove a well-sourced claim that it stars Ali Zafar, attempts to change the name of the character played by Shah Rukh Khan, boilerplate edit summaries that don't have anything to do with their edits, and no substantial efforts anywhere to explain or discuss anything. It shows up so much at the PC list with terrible, unhelpful edits that for the first time that I can recall, pending patrolling has me in danger of violating WP:3RR.

Semi-protection: Ongoing BLP violations; pending changes aren't helping at all. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:23, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

It seems to me that the pending changes are helping perfectly, and are doing what they are supposed to do, but I will wait for a third opinion.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:51, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
Declined PC protection is not designed to prevent all disruption: it's meant to prevent disruptive edits from going live, while still allowing new users to make edits. So, in my view, its failure or success is not judged by whether disruption is occurring, but whether it is too frequent for the experienced users that are patrolling the page. In this case, I don't believe it is too frequent. Therefore, I agree with @Ymblanter:, and am going to decline this. Vanamonde (talk) 07:28, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
I beg to differ; disruption has been going on for a while, and semi-protection is what this page has long needed to begin with. Snuggums (talk / edits) 12:51, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

@Emir of Wikipedia: The source in the article (a link to the VS website) only says it will begin this week, not that it's done.

Equestria Girls pages

Semi-protection: You might think Equestria Girls is a series of animated films with some merchandises, when actually, with a big toy company that is Hasbro as the developer of the franchise, it isn't. Each Equestria Girls film is simply a part of yearly sub-lineup. I'm trying to clarify that by restructuring all the related articles. But some anonymous user, with a varying range of IPv6 IPs, disagrees with no apparent reason, and is keep reverting everytime I make an edit. I want all the IPv6 IPs to be blocked from editing Equestria Girls and other Hasbro related articles. JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 15:28, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Sounds like a content dispute, not vandalism. tutterMouse (talk) 15:50, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
This is not a simple content dispute. The problem lies in the IPv6 user's attitude. The user reverted all the revisions in question just because the user didn't like how the change was made, and gave no acceptable reason. Also, the user did not show any intention to join the discussion. JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 05:15, 27 October 2016 (UTC

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Continual removal (on grounds that we have to source their WP:OR) of sourced material by anonymous editor. Muffled Pocketed 19:12, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

  • Oppose. There are no any sources which say, European Open and Irish Open are the same tournament. Chris Turner archive [71] listed Irish Open after the German Masters, which have own article. European Open, German Masters, Irish Open are the separate entities in the title of that page. 95.133.148.13 (talk) 19:22, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
Mmmm. See what I mean. No-one is actually saying they are the same tournament, just the same ranking. Stop taking the blooming thing away. If anything, add more content to the blooming table. Alright?
Further note just to say the Turner site, whilst a mine of info, != a WP:RS. Gotta stick with the sources we got, cara. Go raibh maith agat, Muffled Pocketed 19:42, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Please make boney kapoor's page from temporary semi protection to permanent semi protection because this page has been attacked by many ips in a long or short duration of time. . Arjun Kapoor 85 (talk) 01:48, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Declined @Arjun Kapoor 85: First of all, you're asking for an increase in page protection in an area of this page that is intended for requests for decreases of page protection. Second of all, that article has had fewer than 50 edits in the last 10 months. There's certainly little justification for indefinite protection especially if MBlaze Lightning has been reverting disruptions as needed. MusikAnimal has semi-protected it for a few days. If that doesn't stop the vandalism the semi-protection can be extended. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 02:20, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: The husband of the nurse Poh Sim Roberts, as identified by himself on my talk page, persists in adding the words "corrupt and malfeasant" to the article without supporting evidence. I've added a paragraph with the one reference he suggested to me, but it doesn't support what he claims to be true of the Nursing Council, and apparently he has been doing this for some time and more than one editor has had to undo it.

European Masters (snooker)

Indefinite full protection: This is a redirect that needs to be protected. Content was split from the article and has been re-merged following an RFC at Talk:European_Open_(snooker)#RFC: Should the European Masters entry be split from this article to a new article?. One of the participants has refused to accept the result by challenging the closer at User_talk:Prcc27#Talk:European Open (snooker) and reverting the merge. I appreciate that closes can be challenged but there are proper ways for doing this. I think it would be best to protect the redirect which can always be unprotected if the result is successfully challenged down the line. Betty Logan (talk) 18:08, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Cheri DiNovo

Reduce to Pending Changes: Although the main article should remain as indefinitely semi-protected, I personally think that the talk page should be dropped to Pending Changes, which should allow for IPs/Newer Accounts to post comments for any changes to the article, yet at the same time have reviewers approve (or decline) talk page based edits due to persistent vandalism that happens on the main article.

@Emir of Wikipedia: Personally, no, but it's borderline. I'm taking into account the fact that all but the most recent reverted edit was by a single IP, which could have been blocked if necessary. Only two IPs with vandalism spaced apart by a week or more isn't enough for me to apply pending changes. I always consider pending changes when reviewing requests and often apply it even when it isn't specifically asked for. ~ Rob13Talk 14:50, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protection - Constant editing of article by socks (IPs & non-confirmed accounts) of banned editor HarveyCarter. Admins (Bbb23 and Favonian in particular) play whack-a-mole with the socks, but some discouragement from posting would be useful.
