Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – persistent vandalism by banned user. Denniss (talk) 13:34, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Declined there's a (quite interesting IMHO) content dispute but no vandalism. A semi-protection would be unfair and take sides, a full-protect or blocks would be over-punitive. Consider dispute resolution. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:53, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Boscastle flood of 2004

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page seems to be an intermittent vandal-magnet - perhaps on a school syllabus. Silly vandalism on talk page just now, let's put a stop to it. PamD 11:48, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Declined – User talk pages are not protected except in response to severe or continued vandalism. I've given a short block to one of the IPs instead. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:55, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Supporters of another football club, especially The TV Boy who has targeted several related pages, keep removing parts of the article.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP is edit warring and using childish insults in edit summaries again. Talk page discussion isn't going anywhere. Grayfell (talk) 08:35, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Grayfell is misrepresenting the sources. There are no insults used: The word maniac has its own wiki page here: https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Maniac. Its an observation. The said user is vandalizing the article Kripalu Maharaj. And in my opinion Grayfell should be blocked from editing atleast Kripalu Maharaj.117.207.191.6 (talk) 11:01, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent sockpuppetry – Semi-protection has failed to stop the potential socks. Please increase protection level to ECP. -- Dane2007 talk 14:26, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. This single sleeper was many years old, but it's doubtful he has more of these. If a second sleeper pops up, ping me and I'll apply extended confirmed. ~ Rob13Talk 04:09, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Template:Major International Pageants titleholders 2016

Extended confirmed: Persistent sockpuppetry. Linghost 666 Trick Treat 16:26, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

@Linguist111:I don't think one edit by a suspected sock is persistent sockpuppetry. Extended confirmed protection is for the type of sock attack where a semi protected page gets vandal-type edits from multiple throw-away autoconfirmed accounts. Unless there is something I have missed, I think this request should be declined. Yaris678 (talk) 17:57, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
@Yaris678: The template was created by a now-blocked sockpuppet of Rachellegeneroso (Kevinjumarang) and later edited by a blocked sock of the same user, Paolarosales. Semi-protection won't help as the user often makes several edits and edits constructively for days before beginning to edit disruptively. Linghost 666 Trick Treat 18:14, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. If this continues, report again. We'd need to see autoconfirmed accounts before we used extended confirmed protection, though, as pages aren't protected pre-emptively. ~ Rob13Talk 04:04, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Captain Hook (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) Indefinite Semi-protection:High-risk vandalism due to Twinkle. Sardonyxes (talk) 03:27, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

@Sardonyxes: Why is this article any higher risk than a random article? ~ Rob13Talk 03:33, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
People around the world, had vandalized Captain Hook, Disney character in Jake and the Neverland Pirates and Peter Pan twice a day. According to The Walt Disney Company, Captain Hook is a character. See disney.wikia.com/wiki/Captain_Hook. Sardonyxes (talk) 03:43, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Shadow the Hedgehog

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – addition of unsourced and/or poorly sourced info by ips. Long-term vandalism target. Perhaps pending changes or longer-term temporary protection would be in order. ‖ Ebyabe talk - State of the Union ‖ 03:30, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. To me, this isn't straightforward. Many sources have been provided, but their reliability is questioned. Please take this to a talk page discussion or alert relevant WikiProjects to build a consensus. ~ Rob13Talk 03:43, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection - Persistent vandalism. Various IPs keep changing sourced information (height and weight). Was semi-protected for one week; vandalism resumed almost immediate after protection was removed. Quickly semi-protected for two more weeks; vandalism resumed almost immediately after protection was removed again. GaryColemanFan (talk) 06:01, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Pending-changes protected Indefinitely. Let's see if this combination is good enough. Vanamonde (talk) 07:06, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Extended confirmed

Indefinite semi-protection: All of the request's are semi-protected, except for confirmed for obvious reasons, and this one for no discernible reason. Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 00:00, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

I'd actually oppose this. The only reason that people are generally granted extended confirmed is because they are alternate accounts. No point, really. Dat GuyTalkContribs 00:38, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
Declined Both because protection should not be applied pre-emptively and for the reasons DatGuy stated. This is regularly requested by alternate accounts who are not yet confirmed. ~ Rob13Talk 03:04, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP vandalism returning after the last semi-protection expired. DPH1110 (talk) 07:14, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

@DPH1110: The PC protection appears to be doing its job. Do you feel that vandalism is too frequent for reviewers to handle? Vanamonde (talk) 16:11, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 2 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Lately, this has been too high volume, which isn't surprising. PC will be effective in the offseason, but not in the middle of the regular season. ~ Rob13Talk 04:11, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. ElectricBurst(Electron firings)(Zaps) 04:21, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protected for one week and Pending-changes protected for three months. Hopefully that'll fix the problem, cause the edit rate is really too low to justify long term semi-protection. Ks0stm (T•C•G•E) 05:32, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection per WP:ARBPIA3. Protection was declined a few days ago so, of course, the disruption continued. This is not edit warring, it's the Testra IP vandal who sometimes threatens editors and their families with physical and sexual violence. Some of the many IPs they have used are listed here.

Temporary semi-protection: recent high level of disruptive edits by opinionated IPs; a background of past history of socking by LanguageXpert; the related articles Hindko dialect and Saraiki dialect are already protected for apparently similar reasons. – Uanfala (talk) 02:03, 2 November 2016 (UTC) @Vanamonde93: I am against protecting these pages. Even I request for lifting edit restrictions on Saraiki dialect and Hindko dialect. Problem is not with other members / IP Deaed. It all started when User Uanfala raised essentially the same issue on multiple move requests for proofing Saraiki a language vs its dialect status. [[1]] [[2]] /RFCs [[3]] , [[4]] move review [[5]] /talk pages [[6]] [[7]] /Notice boards [[8]], / Sock puppet allegations [[9]] [[10]] or to multiple administrators [[11]], Mediation request [[12]] or any of these repetitively, which was unhelpful to finding and achieving consensus. It was a clear case of WP:FORUMSHOP & WP:ADMINSHOP in the hope of finding one where he may get the answer he wants. [[13]] . I even tried to compromise with him [14] until an open RFC closes but he continued on WP:TENDENTIOUS editing , WP:CHERRYPICKING, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence. [15] with repetitive attempts to insert or delete content or show behaviour that tends to frustrate proper editorial processes and discussions. He was WP:POINTy [16] calling world renown linguistic sources of George cardona 2007, Rana Dasgupta 2014 and UCLA 2015 as bogus sources. Once he called Saraiki a Language [17] then he said where did I said it is not a dialect [18] then a language variety [19]. He even tried to define Dialect as a Language variety, but Wikipedia is not a dictionary WP:NOTDIC with defining synonyms/ close jargon. If page title is dialect then it could only be expanded in Encyclopaedic manner. Disputes are meant to be resolved per consensus. Egos are not helpful in building encyclopaedia articles. Then He started to spread the edit war on other Punjabi dialect pages. IP Deaed described Main issue [20] and I propose a solution [21]. Please take action as you think best. We will respect that.Yoyi ling (talk) 07:56, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

FC CSKA 1948 Sofia

Temporary full protection: Due to disruptive editing caused by fans of another football club, yesterday I asked for temporary semi-protection of the page which was enforced by Vanamonde. Unfortunately, it didn't stop a registered user who wants to remove part of the content at all cost and the page received a vandalism template. Initially, he asked for paraphrasing of the text which was done. Then he asked for sources which were provided. Only well established sites with good reputation were used but he keeps removing the content. His main concern is the following paragraph:

...but generally suffered bad management in the last few decades. Having won 31 league titles since 1948 when it was established, the club was forced to play in the 3rd Bulgarian division in the 2015/2016 season due to unfunded debts which didn't allow the club to get a license for professional football. The replacement with Litex aimed at having the club play in the top division as "CSKA-Sofia". Grisha Ganchev, owner of Litex and controversial businessman, who was charged with tax evasion[6], being part of an organized criminal gang[7] and making death threats to the former head of the National Revenue Agency in 2015[8], is the main figure behind the move. His campaign to replace CSKA with Litex was backed by the Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and the Sport Minister Krasen Kralev and was seen by most as an attempt to overtake the bankrupted CSKA, which at that time was under administration, without paying anything.

The case drew public attention because of the popularity of the clubs involved and the intervention of the government. All of the above-mentioned facts are very well known and a simple Google search shows thousands of articles about the events. The sources are in Bulgarian but Google Translate offers decent translation which allows the verification of the sources. I'm forced to ask for temporary full protection because the user who is removing the sourced content isn't interested in reaching a consensus but rather wants to remove parts of the article he doesn't like. --Ivo (talk) 08:59, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I know you don't take sides in content disputes, but please can you revert the page to this verison from before the content dispute please? I am asking for this beacause the current one, if you review it closely, is full of POV's that sould not be there at all, the user keeps re-adding them constantly. Discussion has started on the talk page and the user has been reported, but the current verison is just not acceptable per WP:POV. Thank you in advanse!--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 09:29, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
TV Boy, the only person who has reported my is you yourself :D No actions were taken as a result of your first report and it's very likely the same to follow for your second report. There isn't even one sentence which contains unacceptable POV. Virtually everything is sourced. Would you explain what exactly bothers you? A businessmen charged with very serious offences made a highly controversial move that caused public outrage even among the football fans who he asked for support. The result was the foundation of another club because of Ganchev's actions and you are saying that these details are non-neutral and should be removed from the article? FC Steaua București is owned by another person with disputable reputation who isn't even the official owner. His controversial past is described in details because his actions affect the club. Another good example is FC United of Manchester. The Glazer family has no stake in the club but they are in the article because what they did led to the foundation of the club just like Ganchev and CSKA 1948. If any admin is willing to look into this, please contact me before reverting the article. I can provide more sources if necessary not for anything you ask. --Ivo (talk) 14:34, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
BG89, your edits to the article are irrelevant to the topic and assume bad faith. Fullstop. This is crystal clear. They can't stay there and should be removed. You only got lucky that the admin reacted on the second you reverted the edit and asked for page protection, because in most cases this takes up to over a day for someone to react. The sources are irrelevant because the information is irrelevant to the article and I will be asking again for an admin revert in it.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 16:18, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

FC CSKA 1948 Sofia

I am asking the article to be reverted back to the last neutral and undamaged version before the edit war between User:BG89 and me. BG89 asked it to be protected because of an edit war and it was protected, unfortunately the text he entered futures highly inappropriate, assumed bad faith and POV info, which is irrelevant to the article topic itself. The text mainly focuses on personal attacks on Grisha Ganchev, who is an owner of another club with similar name - PFC CSKA Sofia and has nothing to do with this club. The user claims that the text is sourced, but that doesn't make it relevant to the article's topic at all. I know that the protection is made to prevent disruption, and is not an endorsement of the current version, but I am asking for an administrator to review the text if it is of acceptable standards of Wikipedia Guidelines overall, because I really do not think that this version is acceptable to stay the way it is, that is why I think the lastest undisputed version should be returned. History of the page's edits can be seen here.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 16:32, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

TV Boy's perception of damaged and non-neutral article is any article he doesn't like. He reverts the page without any explanation until there is an edit war and then accuses other users or being vandals. Once the page is under protection he is able to avoid or least postpone the discussion. He is trying to escape from discussions because of his desire to impose versions that contradict the generally accepted view. By generally accepted view I refer to sports federations and government agencies which are the most competent and reliable sources as far as sports clubs are concerned. FC CSKA 1948 Sofia is not an exception which is evident from the edit history. The text shouldn't be regarded as personal attack towards Ganchev because it's based on facts and everything is sourced. No speculations are included. Everything in the article is well-known to the public. The part about him is relevant because his moves caused huge controversy and led to the foundation of CSKA 1948. A good examples is the page about FC Steaua Bucharest whose semi-official owner is quite similar to Ganchev. George Becali is an extremely controversial businessman who made some really questionable moves which are related to the football club and therefore they are presented in the page. Another example is FC United of Manchester whose foundation is result of what the Glazer family did and of course that is mentioned in the article. It's true that there were inappropriate words in a version submitted by another user which I edited. I take full responsibility for the current version of the article which is neutral and certainly not an attack on Ganchev. I am ready to give a detailed explanation about all sources which were carefully selected. --Ivo (talk) 18:02, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
It is clearly visible that is not neutral and bad-faithed. The administrators protected the page in that version because they don't really care about the overall point of the topic whatsoever. I've already explained to you several times - you continue to play it dumb and pretend otherwise, and invert and twist my words to support your opinion. There is no such thing as a "generally accepted view", only you think that, the sources you have putted have NO RELEVANCE to the topic. It is a personal attack, because it is not neutral and has nothing to do with the topic, because Grisha Ganchev has nothing to do with this club. The club is founded because some fans did not like the moves he did with the restructuring of PFC CSKA Sofia. Fullstop. Nothing more, nothing else. I do not see anything neutral in this version. The protection was only putted to avoid edit-warring, I've said everything I had to say on the topic. There is clear evidence, based on your previous edit wars and controversial content that you have putted that your edits are not good-faithed, that you take only one view on the subject, and you try to change the meaning of the sources so that they can support your controversial opinion on the subject. And whats more after one page is protected you move to another related to it to start inserting the same controversial content. After this do not think that the current version of the article will stay exactly the way it is, after I've said everything I will be restoring it back to the original version after the protection expires.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 09:51, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. 2A1ZA (talk) 19:10, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

The "International relations" section is persistently vandalized by IPs, who delete the first paragraph and replace it with a lengthy and extemely POV version of the existing third paragraph. Refuse to engage in substantial talk page discussion. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 19:20, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

The IPs are welcomed and have the right to edit. Wikipedia does not force anyone to create an account and a protection can not be requested unless the article was targeted by vandals. Note, an IP who doesnt agree with one of the editors views is not a vandal.
The page is not being vandalised but the content is disputed. The IPs are engaging in the talk page and there is absolutely no difference between their behavior and the behavior of the reporting editor. The only problem and vandalism (to him) is that they dont agree to his preferred version.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 19:22, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
Dear Admins, the honorable colleague Attar-Aram syria has a very different opinion than me on the topics concerned and strongly dislikes my person, but I am sure he, you, and anyone else will not disagree with the assessment I gave above when looking at the article and talk page concerned. The article needs that protection, for the given reason. -- 2A1ZA (talk) 19:27, 2 November 2016 (UTC)
When I look at the article, I see the IPs acting the same way you do. They are engaging in the discussion and adding sourced materials which you constantly delete cause you think they are overhauling the article but the IPs dont think so. So why are they vandals and you are not ? This wont be a long discussion, there is a content dispute not vandalism in that article and forbiding the IPs has on aim: for the reporting editor's view to prevail.--Attar-Aram syria (talk) 04:24, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
I am contributing facts with valid and reliable references from the internet, but it keeps getting reverted. Another IP user and yet other users agrees with me. If someone does not agree with a fact, they would need to mark the sentence as questionable and there are many ways of doing this on Wikipedia. Reverting the works of others is hardly the way to go. If anything, 2A1ZA (talk) is edit warring by deleting material before discussing, and when a discussion is at hand the user shows no signs of compromise. The fact is the user has no tolerance to events that occur contrary to their wishes. If you like, I can register an account. It seems like this user keeps denigrating IP users. -213.74.186.109 (talk) 04:37, 3 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – For months, starting in at least March, an IP editor or editors have been trying to add "My Vagina" as an album to the discography section (there is no such album). This happens about once or twice a week. The article was protected for this reason for a couple weeks in July, but the behavior resumed after protection expired. At least once the IP tried something more offensive.[30] Similar activity from the same IP range is also going on at Tool (band), but that's already at pending.

@Yinf: I looked at that possibility before declining. The range hasn't been active for over 24 hours, so chances are it's already been reassigned.

Tennis ball

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism of article, particularly regarding the color of the ball. It is not high intensity but it is persistent and has been happening for at least four years. There has been a previous semi protection which ran between November 2015 and February 2016 and the article history shows it was effective but the vandalism returned as soon as it was lifted . Therefore the only structural solution seems to be an indefinite semi protection. Wolbo (talk) 13:31, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Thank you. But I would like to respectfully suggest that the full protection came a bit too late (the original request yesterday was not fully accepted, which caused the inevitable flood of incompetent edits violating WP:BLP and WP:V), and it is now a bit too long. The ranking will actually change in a few hours, and unless an admin updates the article, it will be outdated. So I would suggest either shortening the protection to about 4 hours from now, or if an admin could perhaps update the ranking in the body of the article and in the infobox, too, in a couple of hours, after it comes out officially... Thanks.—J. M. (talk) 20:46, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Semi-protection: This GA-rated page has been disruptively edited for several years now, both by User:Holtj and their various socks (at least six of which have been confirmed and blocked) as well as various other newly established accounts and IPs. The page was recently protected for a week by User:MelanieN, but since then an IP (probably Holtj again) has returned to make additions. Given the regular disruption that this article experiences from IPs and new editors it should receive permanent semi-protection. Midnightblueowl (talk) 12:24, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Not done. There is only one non-consensus edit after the protection ended. If it does get bad again, re-report. Yaris678 (talk) 19:04, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

FC CSKA 1948 Sofia

Two weeks full protection: Persistent vandalism. Due to an ongoing edit war I requested semi-protection on 1 November 2016 which didn't help. The TV Boy who doesn't like the content continued to revert the page and therefore I asked for full protection on 2 November 2016 which was enforced the same day. Unhappy with the decision, The TV Boy requested the page to be reverted back to a previous version. The request was declined by an administrator who encouraged him to use the talk page. Nevertheless, The TV Boy reverted the page just hours after the protection expired. --Ivo (talk) 20:17, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

User:BG89 re enters highly not neutral, offensive and bad-faithed text that targets specific person, who has nothing to do with the topic. The same user refuses to engage in further discussion on Talk:FC CSKA 1948 Sofia and continues to re-enter this text. I tried explaning to him several times why this text can't be there, but he refuses to take anything from that and continues to edit-war. The same user also tries to twist any opinion I give in order to make his actions good faithed. He also started edit-warring with controversial content on several other pages.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 20:26, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
Grisha Ganchev, the person TV Boy is referring to, caused a huge controversy just a few months ago which divided the supporters of PFC CSKA Sofia. The original club had very serious financial problems and was facing bankruptcy. Instead of trying to save it, Ganchev decided to let it go bankrupt and established a new club with similar name which infuriated part of the supporters and they created FC CSKA 1948 Sofia. Ganchev isn't related to FC CSKA 1948 Sofia but he was the main reason for the establishment of the club which is an indisputable fact. TV Boy is trying to remove a well-sourced text because of personal reasons which is unacceptable. Here is the text he considers as non-neutral and offensive:

Grisha Ganchev, owner of Litex and controversial businessman, who was charged with tax evasion,[6] being part of an organized criminal gang[7] and making death threats to the former head of the National Revenue Agency in 2015,[7] is the main figure behind the move. His campaign to replace CSKA with Litex was backed by the Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and the Sport Minister Krasen Kralev and was seen by most as an attempt to overtake the bankrupted CSKA, which at that time was under administration, without paying anything. Part of CSKA Sofia's supporters and most veterans[8][9] did not accept the replacement of CSKA with renamed Litex and established CSKA 1948 - a club starting from the lowest football level in Bulgaria.

Actually, I was the one who initiated the discussion, so accusing me I'm running from discussion is ridiculous. I absolutely deny his allegations and take full responsibility of everything I wrote. I really hope the administrators will take measures because TV Boy has went too far. He thinks he has the right to impose his view point on all other users and as a result of that there have been numerous complaints by other Wikipedians on both the English and the Bulgarian Wiki. Last but not least, this user is suspected of socking. A detailed evidence can be found here. --Ivo (talk) 21:06, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
BG89, thank you for the good example for your actions - turning, twisting and manipulating everything I said about you against me. Well done with copy-pasting every accusation that I wrote against you anywhere here against me! Twisting and manipulating the text is also a thing here - Grisha Ganchev has nothing to do with FC CSKA 1948 Sofia at all. In the current version it is written briefly how and why the club is created. BG89 keeps re-adding the text with excessive details about the person, "sourcing" several article from sites, that are irrelevant to the text citing, not to mention the text is not relevant and has nothing to do with the topic at all. BG89 tries to mask the edits as good-faithed and sourced so that the attacking text can remain. Yes, he started the discussion on Talk:FC CSKA 1948 Sofia, but after that he keeps dodging and avoiding everything I say about the text, trying to twist it in a different direction. I reported the user several times on the noticeboard for disruptive behavior, any normal conversation I start with him gets twisted away, and after that masked and twisted so that I can be the guilty one when it comes to reporting actions about edit-warring. Anyway, I also ask for protection of the article, seems that no other measures for BG89's actions are successful so far.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 21:17, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
Reporting another user doesn't mean he did anything wrong which was exactly the case when you reported me. Describing your actions and blaming me for them doesn't make me guilty. The administrators refused to accept your arguments and posting the same thing again and again won't change their mind. I'm just one of the Wiki contributors who has problems with you whilst you are the only user I've problems with. You went as far as spreading lies about me in order to get my account suspended but all you achieved is that now we have evidence that the the puppet accounts have followed your edits for years. That is to say you tried to use your sockpuppets to deceive the administrators that they are mine. This is virtually the lowest of the low I've seen on Wiki. Get ashamed! As for the article, the situation is plain and simple. You want to remove part of the article not because it contains wrong facts but because you don't like it. How am I supposed to agree with that? Of course that is never going to happen no matter how many times you vandalise the article.--Ivo (talk) 22:03, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
BG89, you are the one who should get ashamed for such impudently behavior. You are basically confirming it was you who were behind the sockpuppets with this statement. After Rupert suspected you - the first thing you did to defend yourself was try to fabricate out so that you can accuse me that I was behind your own vandalisms. And after that you still try to play it double faced so that you can get out of the situation. Stop dodging and inverting the topic - now that you don't know what else you can write you keep mumbling the same stuff over and over again, because you know that Grisha Ganchev has nothing to do with this club and the text is irrelevant and there only to offense. And THIS IS fan trolling BG89, no matter how you try to make it look otherwise. I will be reporting you again until you stop with this behavior, which is the worse and most aggressive one I have ever seen so far. You really need to stop, your actions are controversial, and if a proper investigation starts for them you may be blocked for a really long time after that. This is my last attempt to talk normally with you, I really hope you can rethink your actions.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 22:15, 10 November 2016 (UTC)
Another lie, TV Boy. Rupert exact words were that he is concerned about the anonymous IPs. He never said it's me behind them. Judging by your tendency to accuse me of your own sins and shamelessly lie on the noticeboard, your strange unwillingness to report my alleged puppets was rather suspicious. It was really easy to find the connection between you and "them". In a city of over 1 million one of the two most popular internet providers has a very large number of dynamic IPs. There is simply no way it's a coincidence, especially when we talk about edits that were years apart. The IP you posted proves virtually nothing. The average Bulgarian has 1,4 mobile phones, so it could be your second phone. I'll send my IP to any administrator who asks for it, including Rupert but I won't make it public. I'm forced to copy-paste the evidence that you are behind the puppets because of your stubbornness. Now everybody can see what a shameless liar you are are.

For God's sake, stop twisting and manipulating that discussion! What Australian Rupert said was "G'day, frankly I also have concerns about dynamic IPs following your edits, such as here: PFC CSKA - Sofia and PFC CSKA-Sofia. YOUR EDITS, BG89! Immediately after that you tried your best to prove that I was the one behind your IP addresses, simply because you got afraid of what Rupert said. From what posted it turns out that I am some sort of mad man, because I've been reverting the vandalisms that these IP's made, accusing that it was me I would've been reverting my own IP addresses. You are truly a great manipulator, BG89, making things to look as I am the bad one to prove me guilty at all costs of the things you have done. I am sick of such behavior BG89, you can bet that in bgwiki you would have been blocked indefinitely by now. I showed you my IP, which was an Mtel IP. Dodging this one won't help you. I really hope that administrators close this case soon, because I cannot take any more of BG89's impudently behavior.--The TV Boy (talk · contribs) 23:20, 10 November 2016 (UTC)

Move protection: Previous move protection was set to expire in 10–11 November, when it was thought that the public comment period would have ended; however, the important thing here is not the comment period, but the publication in Pure and Applied Chemistry (probably accompanied by a IUPAC press release) of the final recommendation of the new names. Since the intent of the previous protection was to stop the names from being changed before they became official (as they were several times), protection should be continued until then.

The Cenotaph (Hong Kong)

Long-term semi-protection: this is the third protection request which has been made for this page in under a month. Repeated disruptive editing originally by now indefinitely banned user ThomasPark02 (see block log here) and then a number of puppets trying to replace a high quality image with a much lower quality one taken by the sockpuppet. IP editing has started again! Requesting three months of protection, only an extended period of page protection is going to disuade in this case as ThomasPark02 has proved adept at switching between IP addresses.

List of films broadcast by Nickelodeon

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – IP users continuously add unsourced content to this list article, often which are not classified as Nickelodeon films. Previous semiprotection on this article was for six months (March to September of this year), prior to which a huge cleanup to this article was done to remove unsourced entries and ones which were not Nickelodeon films, but after the protection ended, continuous disruptive editing from IP users adding back this unsourced content. I'm going with temporary semi-protection here, but this may be bordering on indefinite, given the previous semi-protection period. MPFitz1968 (talk) 21:55, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

  • It's protected because this company (in various permutations of the name) was the target for a particularly tiresome WP:LTA sockpuppeteer; most of his edits have been revdeleted, but you can get a taste of them from this. In this particular case even though the vandal has long since got bored and left, I see no benefit to unprotecting it, unless you intend to point it to another primary target, since otherwise there will never be any reason for anyone to edit it. ‑ Iridescent 20:38, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Bill Goldberg

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – IP socks recently repeatedly removing well-sourced content that reflects positively on subject and using personal attacks against anyone who reverts them, see [42][43][44][45].--Trepcost (talk) 23:42, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

These IP's have a history of vandalism on wrestlers' articles, for example see [46] on Rob Van Dam.--Trepcost (talk) 23:53, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

  • No "sockpuppetry" whatsoever: as I already told Trepcost, I'm using a rotating, dynamic IP.[47] Also the claim of "using personal attacks against anyone who reverts them" is patent nonsense, as it's only Trepcost who's repeatedly trying to force in unsupported WP:PUFFERY. I encourage any reviewing admin to take a look at Trepcost's edits on Bill Goldberg, and observe not only the unsupported claims being made, but the appalling quality of the sources (aside from Sports Illustrated, which does not support the preceding text). 195.88.75.75 (talk) 23:48, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
  • Nope, these IPs do not "have a history of vandalism on wrestlers' articles". The linked Rob Van Dam modification was a 100% factual edit that was reverted, presumably due to an IP-therefore-vandal mindset. That Van Dam headlined two editions of November to Remember, rather than one, is utterly, patently, undeniably true. Trepcost is now clutching at straws as part of a WP:OWN agenda to get the Goldberg article the way he wants it, with a complete disregard for the quality of the encyclopedia itself. 195.88.75.75 (talk) 00:01, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: High level of disruptive editing by someone using multiple IPs (even though I and other people have urged him/her to create a proper account). Deliberate edit warring whose claims have turned into a series of personal attacks against autentified users. The person using IPs is not participating in the discussion (he/she employs in fact the object field as a gateway to prove his/her points), resorting to a persistent reverting strategy (even more than 3 times per day) with the intention of wearing the other users out in the process.Dk1919 (talk) 19:39, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Article has had a long history of repeatedly seeing IP or newly registered users altering the birth dates (against what the cited source(s) indicate) for these two girls, especially in the last couple of months. The amount of edits is not incredibly huge for any short interval of time, so I'm refraining from requesting semi-protection for now. But the edits made by IP/newly registered users have been persistent in vandalizing the birth dates, which is getting annoying to say the least. MPFitz1968 (talk) 20:04, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

Wim Naudé

Temporary full protection: Dear Sir, Madam,

Due to some internal issues somebody keeps adding untrue comments to the Wikipedia page of Wim Naudé. In the history you can see that I have to change the page on a daily / almost hourly base. Maastricht52 is me. Is there anything that can be done about this? Would it be possible to set up a protection for at least a few months until the internal issue is solved and the matter is calmed down again.

The page of Wim Naudé is a biography and the comments added are untrue comments and are written because of this internal issues. The writer of these anonymous comments wants to harm him personally.

Thank you very much in advance for your assistance in this matter.

Template:M-cropped

Suggest lower to indefinite template protection. The full protection level was assigned back in 2007 for being high-risk. However, it appears that the template today has less than 250 transclusions, which is even under the suggested high-use threshold. Template protection would be more than enough, (perhaps even semiprotection). — Andy W. (talk) 23:48, 16 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection Roughly half the edits to the page since I joined have been from new accounts and IPs, and all of them have been obvious trolling. The problem isn't all that serious (except for one instance of unambiguous racism), but semi-protecting the page until the end of the month would not do any harm because, by the nature of the editathon (participation requires the user to have an autoconfirmed account in order to create new articles), IPs and new accounts don't have a dog in the race to begin with.

I'm afraid that's not the case.

What he is doing there is misleading and ruins the article. Eriba-Marduk (talk) 20:20, 17 November 2016 (UTC)

@Samsara: Okay, let me expand upon that. Sources say the Houston Astros have "reportedly" signed Reddick, and it's pending a physical examination. It's all based on anonymous sources, and not a done deal. Sometimes, these reports turn out to be erroneous. Other times, the player fails the physical, and the deal is voided.

  • Er, yes it is. Here is one of the edits in question, the edit is trimming what the editor characterises as "editorializations and picayune details". This certainly isn't vandalism. Discussion on the talk page about these changes seems to be going against you. Protection isn't a tool to get your own way in a content dispute. Hut 8.5 19:49, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
Well, I asked another uninvolved admin to review this request. Using and accepting disqualifications like "editorializations and picayune details" is not good--Vujkovica brdo (talk) 20:02, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
I'm not accepting that description. I'm just saying that it was being removed for a good faith reason, and that therefore the removals aren't vandalism, as you said above. Whether this material is appropriate or not is something that needs to be worked out with other editors on the article talk page, as with any other content dispute. Hut 8.5 20:18, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
I thought Wikipedia is really free encyclopedia. Now all the 'good faith reason editors' are admins teamed up, with good experience in harrassing others. I know what is your point of view, I just asked for another, uninvolved admin, to review my request--Vujkovica brdo (talk) 20:30, 17 November 2016 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – {{ill}} and {{interlanguage link}} are redirects to {{interlanguage link multi}} per this TFD.

Semi-protection: vandalism and other disruption is imminent, as the individual has just been offered the position of Attorney-General in the Trump administration. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 12:59, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Declined. Sorry, Snooganssnoogans, we don't protect preemptively. I've watchlisted the article. Bishonen | talk 13:20, 18 November 2016 (UTC).
Sorry, I was not aware that you couldn't protect preemptively. I hope you'll be quick to protect once the vandalism starts. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 13:32, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
I'd suggest looking at this again due to the IP vandalism currently ongoing at the article, @Bishonen:. Calibrador (talk) 16:57, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
As a second opinion, I'd still be INclined to DEcline as it looks like there'll be considerable collateral damage on positively contributing non-confirmed users and IPs. Samsara 17:54, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
Yes, Samsara, me too. There's considerable editing, but I really don't think a lot of it is vandalism. All the IPs that I've checked up on appear to be contributing in good faith, though occasionally without full awareness of what's appropriate. (That applies to some autoconfirmed users, too.) I won't semi at this time. The situation may change, of course. Bishonen | talk 18:51, 18 November 2016 (UTC).

I concur the article should be protected. An IP user just listed Adolf Hitler & Eva Braun as his parents. Might as well get it over with. Cllgbksr (talk) 20:40, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

I responded to Cllgbksr's request (made elsewhere) and I saw very little vandalism, and a lot of good-faith editing by new and unregistered users. I recommend that it not be protected for now. I will keep an eye on it in case the situation changes. --MelanieN (talk) 21:26, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
I was aware of the above responses, but I've respectfully added a day of PC protection, due to some vandalism and the high visibility. We will have a better idea about protection before/when it expires. -- zzuuzz (talk) 21:49, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Page receives high levels of vandalism from an anonymous, IP-hopping vandal who is hellbent on inserting WP:Original Research into the article, and is notorious for edit-warring to preserve said original research, and who repeatedly demonstrates it is wholly incapable of being reasoned with. Page was semi-protected for a year to discourage this vandal, who has also made a dozen or so sock puppet accounts specifically to dodge semi-protection. Now that semi-protection has expired, the vandal has returned like clockwork, like it always does.--Mr Fink (talk) 15:54, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

I'm Kurt Evans, the 2002 U.S. Senate candidate that users "ALPolitico" and "Dane2007" have repeatedly accused of disruptive editing. As I've repeatedly explained on the article's "Talk" page, I never declared as a Constitution Party candidate for this office, nor was I ever legally recognized as such. My edits are primarily to correct false and misleading information, while both "ALPolitico" and "Dane2007" refuse to discuss the reasons for their edits. From my perspective it seems that they're the ones engaging in disruptive edit-warring and "I-don't-like-it" behavior. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.249.254.141 (talk) 21:15, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Ganja, Azerbaijan

The sockpppet Cavadxangence1992‎/Historicalcity2016 is constantly POV pushing by erasing the official and referenced population data of the city of Ganja, Azerbaijan and is replacing them with unsourced bogus numbers. The person has done this previously according to the revision history of the article under as an IP and under the same accounts, and the article was temporarily semi-proteced as a result, which I requested last week in the Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard. But the warnings to that person have not deterred him or her, and the temporary semi-protection of this article is proving useless because the IP is doing the POV pushing under his or her sockpuppet accounts.

List of United States Presidential firsts

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – This "list" needs some level of protection, people add all sorts of unverified cruft, OR, things "that they just KNOW are true", etc. I counted the number of bullet points - there are a total of approximately 475 points with about 272 having no references. Could we at least get Pending Changes? (though I think Semi would do the most good...) Looks like I am taking this on as my next article-improvement project and it would be a great help if the constant addition of unsourced statements could be kept down to a dull roar. Shearonink (talk) 15:33, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

Not done @Shearonink: You need to get talking to 147.126.*.* if you haven't yet, and determine if they are willing to source their edits or be blocked for disruptive editing. As far as I could tell at a quick glance, they have only used two IP addresses over a long time period. Samsara 21:19, 24 November 2016 (UTC)
When I requested page protection I also posted my concerns on the article's talk page and added {please source your edits} comments into every Presidential section on the article (so people couldn't claim they somehow just didn't know). I'm now posting Talkbacks that link back to the article's talkpage on recent editors' talkpages. To me, for the most part, the information/trivia/"firsts" being added to the List are not of the kind of obviously known facts (such as the sky appears blue etc.).

(Non-administrator comment) @Vanamonde93: I blame DeltaQuad. As part of an emailed RevDel request I made after an IP user who was harassing a bunch of users was blocked, they temporarily deleted the page and the protection settings were apparently reset when the page was restored. There doesn't appear to be a need to continue with the request at this time since the IP has been stopped for now.

Reduction in protection level: From full protection to template editor protection. This article is vandalised by some users.

There are dozens of another examples of this. Beshogur (talk) 17:01, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Declined. I don't understand this request. Were you talking about the template "Districts of Turkey"? That template is currently semi-protected, not full protected.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Removal of speedy deletion tag by IP addresses. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:42, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Note: @Robert McClenon: I was surprised you're asking for protection rather than deletion. Following the G4 designation, I looked at the previous deletion motion and saw that the main argument was TOO SOON. That was in July, and the article says the movie releases in December. So I'm not sure the same argument still applies and can be used as a rationale for speedy. Additionally, the content of the page is not the same as the first time around - it has been expanded, relatively speaking. Samsara 06:34, 26 November 2016 (UTC)

Television content rating systems

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – There has been continued disruption at these articles regarding the color scheme in the table. An RFC has recently concluded at Talk:Motion picture content rating system#RfC: Should the comparison table in the article use a color scheme accessible to color-blind users? whereby the consensus is to deploy a color scheme that meets the accessibility requirements for color blind people. Today, JordanBaumann1211 (only registered for a month) has twice attempted to install incompatible colors, and after being warned about his conduct at Talk:Television_content_rating_systems#Changes_to_the_color_scheme stated he was going to "do what I want". An anonymous IP editor has now enacted the same change. I think the anonymous editing needs to be turned off for a while to allow the article to stabilise. Betty Logan (talk) 01:57, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Vandalism has continued despite 1. previous semi-protection and 2. numerous warnings on the talk page of one of the most prolific IPs. I'm not experienced enough to know what level/duration of protection is relevant here (or blocking of the most active IPs?) but clear need for some action to be taken.

Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ThomasPark02/Archive

Permanent semi-protection: User:ThomasPark02, is trying to edit the archive page of previous cases brought against ThomasPark02 after a new case was brought at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/ThomasPark02. He was recently unblocked and then blocked almost straight away again after he once again began his pattern of disruptive editing (see block log here). I made a similar request a few days ago after the archive page was edited, at the time I warned this kind of behaviour was "likely this will happen again" but the request was declined on the grounds that "we do not protect pre-emptively". However, the ThomasPark02 has since again tried to edit the archive as an IP, admitting in the edit to being the blocked user (see here), demonstrating this is a continuing problem. I spend enough of my time trying to clean up the messes this user makes. The banned user often moves or deletes warnings and parts of conversations in an attempt to twist them or hide evidence on his own talk page and it seems highly likely that the integrity of the archive (where editors are unlikely to be examining the logs to check that things haven't been altered) will become compromised if no protection is provided. There is no need for this page to be editable by non-confirmed users as it is an archive. Ebonelm (talk) 14:25, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Could you revert the the last edit by the ip user.. he has been reverted by three different users for adding a theory in the plot section of the page. - AffeL (talk) 21:35, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
No. Now you all need to discuss on the talk page of the article. Widr (talk) 21:36, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
How are we all going to come to aggrement when he is the only one adding a theory, that is a possible spoiler for the future episodes? - AffeL (talk) 21:44, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
I'm not sure what there is to discuss. It's one IP editor (with no other contributions) trying to add something to the plot section that did not happen in the episode. --SubSeven (talk) 00:08, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
