2018 FIA Formula 2 Championship

Temporary semi-protection: an IP editor has been making changes to the markup without a consensus. Discussion on the talk page favours one style of markup for the sake of clarity, and a secondary consensus supports recreating the style of another, related article—2018 Formula One World Championship—which uses that same style of markup.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page seems to attract repeated vandalism, with a pretty large number of rollbacks in the page history. . Wqwt (talk) 04:39, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Frankly, the pace of disruption/vandalism is arguably not high enough to justify the protection but I sense the regular editors' frustration and have protected it for a week so that you all have some breathing room to bring the article in line with the cited source(s). Hope @Wqwt:, @Mr. Guye: or others involved with the article will take advantage of it. Abecedare (talk) 06:24, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Hughesy, We Have a Problem

Semi-protection: I'd like an admin to consider extending semi-protection on this article (it's scheduled to expire at 1640 UTC). In the last six hours there have been 15-20 (maybe more) edit requests on the talk page begging / demanding that the protection be removed. The requests have come from a few different IPs, at least one of which was causing problems in the article prior to its protection. I'm all for second chances, but when the same editor who caused the problem in the first place is sitting there with their finger on the button begging to be let back in, it makes me nervous. ‑‑ElHef (Meep?) 14:09, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

2018 Wimbledon Championships – Men's Singles

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent vandalism – For the last several days multiple anon ips have been adding scores that have never happened. The event hasn't even started yet. Goodness knows what will happen when it actually starts and we have legitimate scores. Can we get some minimum level of protection, ECP or pending changes, for about a week? I'm not sure what the best choice is. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 07:11, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Declined I see three IPs 101.176.32.63 (talk · contribs · WHOIS), 49.177.151.71 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) and 2001:8003:402e:9300:5567:8e7:b2a6:7fde (talk · contribs · WHOIS) (all from Australia; same person?) vandalizing the article, while at least one IP has made useful edits. So for now I'll see if blocking the IPs solves the problem.

Abecedare (talk) 07:33, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Sisodia

Indefinite pending changes: Long-term victim of vandalism, sockpuppetry, edit wars, addition of unsourced content, and etc. Worse, much of it has to do with castes and other Indian social groups, a subject that is within the scope of the "South Asian social groups" community sanctions.  — Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)  02:59, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

The IP that was blocked is dynamic in the 50. range in same geo location. See edit history of article. He'll pop up in a few days on another IP. Geraldo Perez (talk) 21:37, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
@Nyttend: It's actually an IP-hopper who's been vandalizing the article in that same manner for over three years now. Yes, you read that right. This goes back to June 2015. Last time, I attempted what was supposed to be a draconian three month semi to stave them off for good. Get this: it took them around 4 hours to return after that protection expired. They were back before the bot could remove the protection icon. Isn't that disturbing? They took note of the protection's expiry and patiently waited for three months so they could return to doing the exact same thing, knowing full well that they would just be immediately reverted, just as they have every single time for the past three years. Isn't that bizarre? I can't say I've ever seen anything like it. Just sharing because it really confuses and disturbs me. Swarm ♠ 22:07, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for the details. I'm just uncomfortable doing anything on allegations of sockpuppetry unless someone's already been blocked as a sockpuppet or unless I'm given evidence such as what you just mentioned. But please note that I didn't touch the protection, so even if you hadn't left this explanation, I wouldn't have touched anything. Nyttend (talk) 23:41, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
@Nyttend: Oh no, I was fully aware that you didn't modify the protection, and rest assured I was not explaining because I felt a need to argue with or refute your comment or anything like that! I just think it's such a bizarre case that I couldn't resist but share the details with you, since you happened to take a look. Swarm ♠ 01:39, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Impact Wrestling/ROH

Permanent semi-protection: Based on consensus we have included specific vague wording as to who is the #2/3 wrestling promotion in the US, based on sources. These two pages have a similar story showing the two sides. These have been protected several times in the past due to IPs changing this wording to reflect their opinion and removing the sources, see [2] and [3] as a recent example of both. I am requesting a permanent auto-confirmed lock on these pages under the new WP:GS/PW. Thank you Galatz גאליץשיחה Talk 13:37, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Both pages. Given the chronic level of IP vandalism, and the many pp's in the past, I'm surprised none of them was for longer than a week. Still, I'm not comfortable going from 1 week to indef. I concur this will most likely need indef, but let's start with this. If it resumes, then we'll re-evaluate. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 20:45, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Temporary protection: Persistent edits on the basis of opposing opinions expressed in the ongoing AfD about the article. We should be better served allowing the AfD process to close and emotions to simmer down. -The Gnome (talk) 16:36, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

There is nothing whatsoever in the AfD process which permits the WP:OWNer of an article to enforce their own preferred version in the face of 'opposing opinions'. Indeed the template at the top of the page explicitly states that the article can be edited. My edits were made solely with the intention of making the subject matter clear, and in removing unnecessary digressions about usages of a common phrase in contexts beyond the article subject matter.

Declined – To use the chain (unit) as a distance measure to be quoted in articles looks odd, but the question should be put to WP:Dispute resolution rather than edit warring. If the war continues, full protection is likely. EdJohnston (talk) 14:46, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent "In Popular Culture" spamcruft edit-warring by hostile, dynamic IP now engaging in personal attacks.

I edit the page and have reverted the angry IPs, so need another admin to step in. Thanks. - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 20:22, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Consider the edit warring noticeboard – This is a case of possible edit-warring by one or two users. Fish+Karate 11:38, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
The dynamic IP user was adding unsourced IPC cruft, lying in edit-summaries, refusing to engage on talk, and stopping just sort of 3RR. Clearly a logged-out editor that knows policy and doesn't want to get blocked. Wouldn't have become a problem except on a low-traffic article like this one. Seems to have died down for now, but will deal with it through EW if they resume. Best, - CorbieV ☊ ☼ 22:23, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

2018 Formula One World Championship

Temporary protection: an editor keeps making changes to the markup without providing any explanation or attempting to discuss the changes. The article is currently under temporary semi-protection because an IP was making these same changes; this editor started doing it almost as soon as the temporary semi-protection was put in place. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 22:53, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

I was the one who removed the markup, and I did leave a reason for it in the edit summary. Mayerroute5 (talk) 22:56, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
Only after you had changed it for the fourth time. And the article (and related articles) has been subject to half a dozen identical, unjustified edits before you came along. You have made no attempt to discuss the changes on the talk page, or to establish a consensus, which is entirely consistent with your recent history of distuptive editing.

Draft:Abdul Quadir Amin

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – I'd like to get another admin's opinion on this. The draft article appears to be edited by a number of anonymous users who keep trying to puff up the article with poor references, maybe hoping that the sheer number of references will translate to subject notability. To my experienced eye it looks like like promotional editing. There was also some fishiness where a logged-in user moved the article into live space by mistake, which was then followed a few minutes later by the removal of failed AFC submissions by anonymous users.. I'd be inclined to semi-protect for a couple of weeks to discourage the anonymous editing, but since I nominated it for deletion when it was moved into live space, I don't think I should protect it myself. The anonymous editing really took off around June 20 and just tends to look like one editor making changes while logged out, even though he has denied that. Your opinion is appreciated. Thanks, .

You just had another one of your other IP socks blocked a week. Do us all a favor by leaving English Wikipedia and take a long hike in Henan. CaradhrasAiguo (talk) 06:37, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
I'm currently doing English Wikipedia a big favor by requesting necesaary semi-block for the disrupted article pages. You, however, used Wikipedia as a battleground, which is a violation of WP:NOTBATTLE.--115.52.9.253 (talk) 06:42, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
Please get better at the projection, and have fun with your next (minimum) week-long block. Also, while your most recent edits at Fengyun have been the only constructive ones, most of the remainder of your page protection requests have been nothing but an attempt to "preserve" your preferred variant of each page. And the delusion present in I'm currently doing English Wikipedia a big favor indicates an entitled, WP:NOTHERE attitude. CaradhrasAiguo (talk) 07:06, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Removal of links by IP address 57.190.1.16 and edit warring. RafaelS1979 (talk) 00:40, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution.
@RafaelS1979, Urbanoc, Pyrope, and 57.190.1.16: there were unnecessary series of edits and reversions at the article as you all (while acting in good faith!) were trying to communicate through edit-summaries and often missing each-other's point. However, it was good to see that you then started a talkpage discussion and, it appears, even reached a tentative resolution. I'd suggest that that you continue the discussion process to make sure you are on the same page and then edit the lede to implement the consensus. I hope all this can be done without the need for the page to be full-protected in the interim. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 02:31, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – slow, but continuous non-autoconfirmed disruptive editing, mostly the kind that would naturally occur at the target page of this redirect, (Wikipedia:Shortcut) which has been semi'd indefinitely, since 2008.

Temporary Extended confirmed protection: Recent edit wars regarding the opening sentence, and recent edits regarding his speculated move to `Juventus. Purijj (talk) 13:03, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Declined - Your request for Extended Confirmed Protection to be applied here over these content-related disputes would not be appropriate in this situation. It would only restrict a portion of the editors involved from being able to edit the article and give the other users an unfair exemption and advantage over the content by not treating everyone fairly and equally. If the issues occurring on this article are content-related and involve multiple editors, then either full protection needs to be applied in order to restrict everybody from editing the article, or no protection should be applied at all. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 14:47, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced (and not entirely necessary) content by the same IP user, each time without a proper edit summary. Bluebird207 (talk) 21:57, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

Comment: This same person has made similar edits to other articles on vehicle registration plates of US states and Canadian provinces and territories using other addresses in the 103.101.168.xx range:
Special:Contributions/103.101.168.77

Special:Contributions/103.101.168.85

On two occasions (12 June and 28 June respectively), I have suggested to this person that (s)he create a proper account instead of just hopping between IP addresses, and provide summaries for his/her edits. Obviously, there are no rules that say that (s)he *must* do either - but I am kind of annoyed that my second suggestion is hardly being heeded, and my first one isn't being heeded at all.
Some of his/her edits I have rather reluctantly left in, more to keep him/her happy than anything else. But on the West Virginia article, (s)he's coming close to starting an edit war - if, indeed, (s)he hasn't started one already... Bluebird207 (talk) 22:31, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

two editors warned. Both User:Mike Galvin and User:DuncanHill are risking a block for 3RR violation. On the merits, our MOS appears to favor Mike's side of this dispute: See 'Place of birth, death etc.' for people born in the north before 1921. The MOS says their birth country should just be given as 'Ireland' and it should not be linked to United Kingdom or described as Northern Ireland. EdJohnston (talk) 20:47, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

And to be quite honest with you, I was trying to get him to BRD, he was ignoring that. I already said I would step back. I think that you've just given a green light to anyone who wants to impose their version - just ignore warnings and invitations to discuss, until the good-faith editor steps away or gets blocked.

Temporary full protection: Multiple accounts of vandalism from user User:Wikipedian123456 with no verifiable sources cited. CriticalSass (talk) 00:12, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Comment I was about to request protection on this page as well, but only temporary extended protection should be sufficient as this would stop the one editor in particular whose vandalism resulted in twenty-four reverts in the last day. This is both edit warring and vandalism, as the misinformation being added cites a page that doesn't even exist, and intentionally misleads users into thinking the subject of the article died when he did not.

Declined – Firstly, I'm not sure why you mentioned "arbitration enforcement" in your request; as far as I'm aware the Arbitration Committee has not recently ruled on anything involving WP:PERM. Secondly, and more importantly, the granting guidelines for user rights are generally only guidelines, which allows administrators to use discretion and grant the right to users who do not technically meet all of the requirements. As there are sometimes cases where an editor might want to request additional permissions even if they are not extended confirmed (e.g. granting it for a legitimate alternative account), increasing the protection level here would be inappropriate.

Long-term semi-protection: The article is the target of day-in, day-out addition of uncited material on the number of children the subject has, and in some cases, his relationship with his children.

Short-term semi-protection was previously placed on the article on User:BOZ, but this was only for a few days, which did not stop the policy violator.

Not sure if Liam20102195 is extended confirmed so might be better to fully protect ?, Not sure will leave that up the deciding admin, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 17:56, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
Declined - Davey2010, I've left the user a final warning. If the user adds unsourced or poorly sourced content to this article again, they'll be blocked and for much longer this time. If it happens, report the user or let me know. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 18:18, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
Hi Oshwah, thanks for your help anyway mate, Thanks, –Davey2010Talk 18:25, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
Davey2010 - I'm pretty sure the IP is this user, too... but I'd rather take action against the disruptive user directly instead of protecting the page and shutting it off from everyone... especially when it's just one person that's doing this ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 18:28, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
Oshwah - Ah I like your thinking! :), Yeah that actually makes more sense, I'm more of "Meh that'll do" but quick is not always best ..... that's what she said . –Davey2010Talk 18:44, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

I am afraid very little can be done here from the admin side. The dispute involves an autoconfirmed user, and I would be hesitant to go for a full protection before the user has been contacted and the discussion at the talk page(s) started. I would decline. I wil pass it to another administrator for a second opinion though.--Ymblanter (talk) 06:37, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
Declined – Agree with User:Ymblanter. This needs somebody to open a discussion on the article talk page. There does not seem to be an edit war -- just a series of different people who assume they are adding correct information. The issue is confusing. Though you didn't mention User:The Nateman I imagine you think their change is incorrect. It would be a good idea to contact him. EdJohnston (talk) 16:46, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Repeated edit warring and slander against the article's subject by multiple IP addresses from Australia (especially near Brisbane), most likely all controlled by Wayne Smith who is seeking to defame and harass Armin Navabi and Atheist Republic, pretending to be its true (co)founder. Last month's temporary pending changes protection (see archive) did not result in an improvement of the previous situation (dozens of disruptive and vandalist edits from multipl IP addresses and one SPA following the same pattern): the page was vandalised again 3 times so far as soon as the temporary protection was dropped 2 days ago, twice by 203.10.59.12 and once by 144.130.156.129.

Note: I'm inclined to wait and see a bit. Two Three edits since I protected the page, hoping most won't make their way over there. Expecting to be proven wrong, but I figure it's better to err on not protecting both article and talk until necessary ~ Amory (u • t • c) 17:20, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Since this morning there have been a few instances of IPs deleting references or referenced material or adding random content, such as [43], [44], [45], [46], and [47].

Therefore, under WP:GS/PW I am requesting the page be protected for 45 days, to take us to the period when this vandalism typically dies down. Galatz גאליץשיחה Talk 17:51, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

Shirish Kunder

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Req: 1 month semi-protection. Since 2016, a disruptive anonymous editor (typically using IPs geolocating roughly to Georgia, US) with an apparent axe to grind with Shirish Kunder has been on a slow multi-year POV campaign to emasculate or otherwise denigrate the article subject. In the past he's phrased content to suggest that Shirish Kunder is only known for being married to actress Farah Khan, they described one of Kunder's short films as a "freebie", ostensibly to make it seem like it was a less valuable work because it was released on YouTube. Anyway, sparing you the details, every so often, the disruptive editor will appear to chip away at the subject's accomplishments. In this edit they removed a claim about the subject working at Motorola, even though a reliable reference could very simply be found by Googling "Shirish Kunder" and Motorola. Though it's fine to challenge content, the user didn't even attempt a rudimentary search, which when held against their years of disruptive editing just reeks of continued bad faith. In 2016 they were brought to ANI twice in two consecutive reports. See "Need eyes at Shirish Kunder, please" and "Rajdeep Sardesai". Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:13, 18 July 2018 (UTC)

Unsourced possible POV-pushing

Temporary semi-protection or Pending changes protection: High level of unsourced and possibly POV edits. A newly-created and apparently single-purpose account has been replacing sourced information with unsourced info in the article's infoboxes. In the combatants' section of the infoboxes, he has been constantly replacing the pro-Russian separatists (DPR & LPR), who's involvement has been sourced throughout the articles, with Russia, without providing any sources. The editor was reverted once and warned his edits were unsourced, but he came back to again make the same unsourced edits, calling it a "correction". The editor has also been marking these as "minor" edits, even though they are significant changes. EkoGraf (talk) 19:14, 19 July 2018 (UTC)

WWE Universal Championship

Semi-protection. Consistent issues with IP vandalism. Not sure how long it should be protected for, as any time it's been previously protected the vandalism starts back up as soon as it expires. It's for the same reason that the WWE Championship article is in permanent semi-protection. I think this article may need the same level of protection. (Also, must note that this falls under the pro wrestling discretionary sanctions. Whether that means it should be protected I don't know, but needed to mention it.) oknazevad (talk) 13:50, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

Request to semiprotect all featured articles Semi-protection: I don't known where else to put this request so I put it here.

Full protection: Editor failing to understand how the Israeli political system works repeatedly changing seat tallies (have attempted to discuss this with them here, but so far no luck. Number 57 16:25, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

I left a message at the talk page of the user. Let us see whether they continue edit-warring.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:31, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Editor failing to understand what I’m trying to explain to him/her has provided incomplete sources that show no evidence to prove his point, he continues to revert the edit, I told him/her there is no point of going with this conversation forward. I discussed this with him/her on the talk page, he still chooses his preferred way. The seat is currently vacated as of 23 July 2018, (MK left parliament), he has not been replaced yet, so I said it will remain vacated until MK is replaced, he/she just doesn’t want to understand. User:Social Studies Rules 16:46, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

According to this source, Herzog will leave at the end of the month. According to article 16 of Knesset Rules of Procedure, a replacement would be announced in the Official Gazette. --46.189.28.247 (talk) 17:01, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

So I have just put a straw-poll on Talk:Knesset, to see what other users say about this disagreement, I think it’s the more mature way to resolve this problem instead of the other users idea to put a lock on the article or consenting reverting the edit. The article posted by 46.189.28.247 (talk), was from July 12, of this year, it is now July 23, and Herzog has already left his post. - User:Social Studies Rules 17:17, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Declined, hopefully can be resolved at the talk page.--Ymblanter (talk) 17:27, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
There's a chapter on the replacement of Knesset members in this book, page 55: "A seat in the Knesset may fall vacant for any of four reasons: the member's resignation, his death, termination of his membership because of election or appointment to one of certain specified posts, or his removal from membership because of conviction of a criminal offense with a prison sentence of at least one year. In every case the seat is filled by the candidate next in order on the list of the resigned or deceased member's Group. Thus, even in the last days of a Knesset term, the new member wil automatically take his place in the house and make his declaration of allegiance." --46.189.28.247 (talk) 17:28, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
Fully protected for a period of 12 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Oops - edit conflict. Sorry, Ymblanter - while you were declining I was giving it short-term full protection so they can work it out on the talk page (where discussion has only just now started). I agree it was a close call, but IMO the pattern of arguing with each other in edit summaries instead of on the talk page needed to be broken. Hopefully 12 hours will give them enough time to find sources for their differing interpretations and settle the matter without edit warring. MelanieN (talk) 17:34, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

United States Army

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I come again with my second request for indefinite semi-protection. In the past 102 edits spanning 150 days, there have been about 35 reversions of vandalism, by editors and bots. In the same time frame, there were about 30 legit edits, mostly by extended confirmed users, and only 5 of those were by IPs. Excepting bot reverts, disruption by non-AC users is usually reverted with a few hours, there have been some cases of it existing for several hours.

I know the community is usually loathed to indefinitely SEMI something, and for the most part I agree with them, but I feel that without any protection it is getting to just clog up the histories and take up editor time, and that no sufficient limited time frame will prevent the disruption from continuing immediately after it expires.

As usual, I am fine for this to be kicked to RFC/AN or otherwise to receive community endorsement. Ping me. Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 16:49, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Indefinite semi-protection is usually based on a protection log showing a repeated need for protection for increasing time spans. The last semi-protection of this page was three years ago, for a week. So it isn’t ready for indefinite semi. The pattern of the current history - recurrent but infrequent IP vandalism, with occasional productive edits by IPs - is best dealt with by PC protection. MelanieN (talk) 17:43, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Full protection: Edit-warring. The article is not under DS (unless there are DS I am not aware of) but we have situation similar to AP. There is a slow TP discussion, but users reverting are not always the same as users participating in the TP discussion. I hope a short-term protection should suffice in getting everybody to the talk page.Ymblanter (talk) 05:47, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. - not enough activity to justify protection.

King's House School

Semi-protection: Persistent IP disruption. The page was semi-protected for 3 months January–April 2018, but the disruption has now begun again. This is a delicate and difficult issue. The IP (who edits from a variety of IP addresses) claims to have been sexually abused when at the school, but the only external evidence he can produce are his own blog posts. He is not deterred by reversion: he accuses other editors of being "representatives of King's House School", and states "Each attempt by the school to erase its past will be logged forever in the Wikipedia page history." He has written at greater length about his attitude towards Wikipedia in a blog post here (and see also the comments from his readers). Further input from other editors would be appreciated.

Pending changes: Very recent event with high visibility and traffic. Not sure if this is the appropriate form of PP to request... Mosstacker (talk) 23:52, 23 July 2018 (UTC)

The article has been moved in the meanwhile and is now at Danforth shooting. I do not see any level of disruption which would require any degree of protection at this point, so I would decline.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:30, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
Declined – I agree with Ymblanter. Generally, if an article has high traffic, semi-protection is preferred over pending changes, since pending changes doesn't actually prevent edits from coming in. In this case, there doesn't seem to be enough disruptive activity to justify page protection at this time. Mz7 (talk) 10:58, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent premature addition of series end date, despite not having aired everywhere yet. Amaury (talk | contribs) 00:53, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Amaury, I'm not thinking semi-protection is needed now, as this series' finale has aired on Disney Channel's two feeds in the US (and all the editing has quieted down). Certainly a bunch of editors (not just IPs) who are adding the end date ahead of the conclusion of the series, unaware that this doesn't have to be reported right away, and doing so is a violation of WP:CRYSTAL.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – If you look at the history for this article you will notice that this article has been a target of persistent vandalism and edit warring. Even today someone without a registered account tried to remove Pakistan from the list without talking on the talk page and this is not new. This has been going on for around 2 years now. It would be great if this article could be protected from such acts in the future. Conses should always be supported instead of edit warring. If the page gets protected it will surely be a great help. Usman47 (talk) 10:27, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

Oppose, the article is still a start class and needs lots of improvements.Can you state under what policy this request is being made ? Protection is not applied in such cases per policy WP:NO-PREEMPT. The level of vandalism also does not suggest an Indefinite protection.--DBigXray 13:09, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

So what do you suggest? This edit war should continue, where people from unregistered accounts just come and want to change the article to whatever they want without discussing it first and then they just vanish. This is a huge problem and it has been going on for a long time. Semi-protection will still allow capable wikipedians to edit the article. I just want the page protected from the kind of people who don't come to contribute instead they just want to do things ignoring the Wikipedia's policy. There is a reason for edit wars on the article. I vote for Semi-protection. This is the only way to keep this war at bay. Usman47 (talk) 13:44, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

I don't see any edit war, right now.I repeat, your request is a clear violation of WP:NO-PREEMPT policy. Even now, You have failed to provide any policy in support of this request.--DBigXray 13:52, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

Have you not seen the edits done on the article today which were reverted back by another user. I am talking about this one [[50]]. Some old edits part of the edit war are [[51]], [[52]], [[53]], [[54]]. I am making this request in light of WP:SEMI policy which allows articles to be semi protected and this request is not a violation of WP:NO-PREEMPT policy. Semi protection will help to keep the article protected from both edit wars and vandals. If you have any doubts about vandalism on the article just check the talk page and the history of the article going back 2 years. This week alone there has been around 4-5 vandalism attempts from different users. Usman47 (talk) 15:19, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

yes, The page is in my watchlist and today I have seen the past 2 month article history, And I am not convinced that this article merits a SEMI. (let alone an indefinite one). WP:SEMI is applicable when there is significant amount of disruption or vandalism. I feel this is not satisfied. You May feel it does. Also, You did not clarify how it is not a violation of WP:NO-PREEMPT, but in your next line itself you say "Semi protection will help", (so you are trying to pre-empt, thats exactly what i am trying to explain.) Unnecessary page protection is against the spirit of Wiki, which allows everyone to contribute. Sure some amount of vandalism is expected as long as it is tolerable. We have made out ponts clear, now Lets wait for an admin to decide over it. Thanks for explaining for your point. Cheers. --DBigXray 16:30, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

Not done. @HickoryOughtShirt?4: one of the promotional accounts is now autoconfirmed, so semi wouldn't help much. I have given that one a COI template and a warning, to follow up your own warning. Also, I'm not convinced they're socks, the types of additions are a little different. I'll try to keep an eye on it. Bishonen | talk 13:00, 25 July 2018 (UTC).
Actually, Bishonen, several of them were socks that stuck out like sore thumbs when CU'ed. Semi-protection might be a good idea now to keep more socks from showing up. Courcelles (talk) 15:53, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
I'll do that, and you've blocked, I see, Courcelles. Thanks. Saves me further nice kind explanations to the "newbie". Are you planning on doing an SPI? It might be handy for the article, as it doesn't take long for new socks to become autoconfirmed. Or, if not, who's the master? Bishonen | talk 16:04, 25 July 2018 (UTC).

I realise that this template only has 60 transclusions, but it is particularly at risk of disruptive editing for political reasons – these were part of the recent unconstructive edits, replacing the UK coat of arms (Scotland) with the pre-union Scottish coat of arms is pretty obviously an inappropriate politically-motivated edit, and I say that as an active supporter of Scottish independence myself.

Abiy Ahmed

Temporary pending changes and semi-protection because this article is the biography of the living prime minister of Ethiopia and for weeks now has been subject to persistent disruptive editing consisting in the main of vandalism and unsourced content being added (and sourced content removed) by a number of different IPs and naive users; many of the libellous and contentious edits are made along sectarian and ethnic lines. --BushelCandle (talk) 19:28, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

Looks like content dispute to me.--Ymblanter (talk) 19:37, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Precisely, and since it's a BLP any content that is added (or changed) must be sourced. If this were a dispute between the emphasis to be put on different sources, with some sources saying (for example) that his mother was a Muslim and other sources saying she was a Christian then that would be different. The edit warring here is between (for example) sourced information that she was a Christian and that just being changed over and over again to Muslim with no sources whatever advanced. This is particularly sad in the case of Abiy Ahmed since the newly selected prime minister comes from an amazingly multi-ethnic, multi-religious background and is a great source of hope and peace in that region of Africa (he just made peace with Eritrea after more than 20 years of conflict). It would be a great pity if Wikipedia contributed to fanning the flames of old ethnic and religious conflicts. Imagine what people would say if they kept reading our article that said that Nelson Mandela supported apartheid and was really an Afrikaaner in black face and paid by the CIA (while all the while the sources cited in the article pointed to something entirely different and while Mandela was still alive and still SA's president)... Does Wikipedia really need the kind of bad press that will result? --BushelCandle (talk) 19:51, 25 July 2018 (UTC)
Declined per Ymblanter, though I'm very close to full-protecting this. BushelCandle, I spotchecked one of the sources after the contentious material, and while it's not a good source, it does support the assertions made by the editor you are arguing with. This is not a clear-cut case of disruption: please take your disagreement to the talk page. Vanamonde (talk) 07:33, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
Vanamonde:Thanks for making a decision.
Please would you specify the source and / or the diff (that "support the assertions") ? (The whole problem has been that the editors wishing to change the sourced material have neither engaged on the article's talk page nor provided any sources whatever for changing/removing sourced material in the article.)
Upon reflection, given the paucity of current sources and the slowness and (relative to people's earnings) expense of internet connectivity in Ethiopia, may I change my request to just Temporary pending changes since, also, the level of pure vandalism has reduced over recent days. --BushelCandle (talk) 10:15, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
@BushelCandle: You're correct, I misread the source; but the situation is actually more complicated than you say it is, because Ahmed's mother is deceased, and not covered by BLP, which is about information concerning living people, not simply "anything in a biography about a living person". Therefore, I have semi'd the page for now (the changes are too frequent for PC to be useful) but do please be more careful in invoking BLP in the future. It was partially your assertion that it was BLP content that was in question which led me to miss the point earlier; I assumed the dispute was about Ahmed's own ethnicity. Vanamonde (talk) 10:29, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for your prompt, extensive and informative reply, Vanamonde.
While we can not hold any political brief, I strongly suspect that the subject of this BLP regards the ethnicity and religion of his family members (living or deceased) as extremely sensitive personal information in the context of him trying to calm a tense civil situation and confirm and extend the new peace treaty with Ethiopia and in the context of being a member of the majority ethnic identity trying to deal with a military and security apparatus hierarchy that is predominantly of a different ethnicity and religion. --BushelCandle (talk) 11:19, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

WWE Evolution

Semi-protection: Professional wrestling events typically see a high level of IP vandalism during the time leading up to and the period just after. This event was announced far in advance, and probably due to the nature of the event we are already seeing this IP vandalism. For example, this morning twice an IP added about a male wrestling at this all female event in a wig [56] and [57]. We have also seen just random removal of coding which messed up the table [58]. Therefore under the WP:GS/PW I am asking if this page can be locked for 4 months to take us until after the event occurs, which is when the IP vandalism typically dies down.

Delyan Peevski

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – In March a group of sockpuppets, used almost exclusively to disruptively edit this article got permamently blocked. They returned in a form of IP users from different providers in May and continued to edit in the same manner, causing 2 semi-protections. When the last semi-protection was still in place, a newly created and recently autoconfirmed account from the group, Antihatred started disruptively edit as usual, and not long after the article got extended protected. I don't think they're stopping any time soon. They're most likely paid editors too, or related to Peevski though I can't fully confirm this. I raised my concerns about this in a COI report, but it got overlooked. I believe PCP would improve the situation, as all of their edits needs to be reviewed before going live.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This page might need protection until the election. I've been watching it for months, but only in the past week or so has there been a rash of new or "new" editors (assuming it's appropriate to use the plural) adding very spurious negative stories (though well-cited) that are insignificant for an encyclopedia article, e.g. whole sections on random pull quotes, or a story about his LinkedIn profile (added twice, by "different" editors). Likewise, in reaction, those who support him are too quick and too broad in removing these poor additions and also removing valid content. JesseRafe (talk) 12:15, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

I have looked at it two times, and I am not sure what is the best way to proceed. There are not so many (or none at all) IP and non-autoconfirmed users editing, but there are indeed a lot of new users who eventually become autoconfirmed. I have no feeling whether they are socks or just a part of some crowd, or just unrelated editors. I can not recognize any of them. May be protect it extended confirmed, and relate to discretionary sanctions about modern American politics?--Ymblanter (talk) 06:55, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Yes, sure, I have checked the page history before making the decision. We would not protect this page for a long time anyway, and the protection in the morning would be viable, but now it is too late. Concerning the last instance of vandalism, it is just one edit, unrelated to the morning vandalism, and I do not think it is sufficient for protection.

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Ongoing censorship of information by user OctopusFactCheck, who is (109.173.150.131 (talk · contribs). I reported the user twice because it was clear that it would start edit warring, removing sources, etc, but no one seemed to care and no action was taken. (See this and this.)

It's also worth mentioning that Sporting CP's previous board of directors is accused of paying people to manipulate information about the club on the Internet ([65]).

MasterChef (U.S. season 9)

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent vandalism – Consistent changes to reality-television page made from IP-only accounts without summaries, without explanations, and frequently poor writing styles. Much like many other reality shows, people seem to want to be first rather than be accurate. If possible, protect for about 2 months, the season should be wrapped by end of September.

Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.

Salting several articles

Indefinite protection from creation: Numerous attempts to create article(s) for a client via sockpuppets. Requesting that a number of articles be protected from creation due to a continuous campaign of recreations by one sockfarm. Said sockfarm can be viewed at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Daniel Kobe Ricks Jr, which seems to include a staggering 138 confirmed socks. As seen through the provided pagelinks, what normally happens is a "new" editor joins the project and recreates an article (sometimes under a different name) that has been deleted before, after which experienced editors whom have been watching the page move the article to the draft space, where it is later deleted via G5 after the "new" editor has been blocked a sock. Per the SPI, this has happened multiple times across various articles, so it should be time for some liberal salting of articles. SamHolt6 (talk) 19:46, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Protection against persistent wikistalkers, evading indefinite blocks

Requesting semi-protection... as described in this SPI the individual or individuals behind these edits is evading indefinite blocks. They are not a once promising newbie who went rogue -- they never had a meaningful history of positive contributions.

They are just coming off a 30 range block on the anonymous IP addresses they misuse.

Note I have made about a dozen requests for semi-protection in response to the vandalism of this block evasion, and have had several administrators either totally dismiss my request, or suggest I try dispute resolution. Administrators who dismissed the requests said they concluded these were mere content disputes. Sadly, some vandals have mastered leaving edit summaries that give the surface appearance of a content dispute to anyone who doesn't look to the talk page, to see if it is consistent with the edit summaries.

Similarly, few things could be a greater waste of time than to try to engage in dispute resolution with a vandal so persistent that they were evading an indefinite block for prior vandalism. Dispute resolution should be reserved for those who haven't proven their bad faith. Geo Swan (talk) 00:05, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

I went through the SPI and have constructed some more aggressive blocks on this user who is obviously wikihounding you, but I don't think the level of disruption on these two articles is sufficient to warrant protection, and I also don't think that protection would stop them.

Temporary full protection: Due to BLP issues regarding the twitter/Thai cave issue. Material that is both undue and (in multiple editors's opinion) is a BLP issue for the diver is being re-added to the article despite requests for consensus to be gained on the talkpage first. Please be reminded as this is a BLP issue, the material should *not* be in the article until consensus has been gained. Only in death does duty end (talk) 19:13, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

OID has been reverting edits due to some blather about protecting a person whom the subject of the article insulted on his twitter machine. Even when the name of the non-notable individual was taken out, OID continued to revet good faith edits without giving an explanation in talk. He later settled on suggesting the article can't mention the incident, which was in international news coverage, without first gaining consensus. Mrathel (talk)

Visa requirements for Danish citizens

Temporary full protection: The article in question is Visa requirements for Danish citizens. User BushelCandle removed some of the content claiming that it is "redundant, obsolete, outdated". The content is sourced and was added in 2016 and I contest the removal and see it as a controversial move. I undid this while trying to use the edit summary to explain quickly why it is neither outdated nor redundant. BushelCandle again removed the same content but this time claiming that it is in violation of the rules on what article lede should contain. I undid this edit based on the fact that this was a misleading edit summary as the content was removed from the article entirely and not moved to a more appropriate place within the article. The content was removed by BushelCandle for the third time. I have asked the user BushelCandle on the article talk page to self-revert to the last stable version (WP:STABLE) so that we can discuss the matter properly without such physical pushing into the article. User BushelCandle has not complied and I cannot revert as I would be in violation of the WP:3RR. Therefore my request is to revert the article back to the last stable version and protect it from new edits so that a discussion can take place on the talk page as imagined by content dispute rules.
