Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Repeated incidents on this article. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:47, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Chetsford (talk) 18:56, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Volkswagen

Temporary semi-protection: Repeated fights over which logo to use. This is getting enough. Since Tupka86 evaded 86.126.160.100's block, they might evade it and start an edit war again. Logo fixer (talk) 18:04, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. If an edit war actually does start again, please file a new request. Chetsford (talk) 18:51, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:46, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Aaron Dessner

Temporary extended confirmed protection: BLP policy violations – BLP violating edits; Seems this musician is being misidentified on Twitter for something. Doc StrangeMailboxLogbook 19:38, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. A single instance of vandalism in the last three months (and one that was reverted in less than a minute) is not sufficiently disruptive to justify protecting a page. However, because the vandalism in question is potentially defamatory, I've provisionally WP:REVDELed it pending oversighter review. Chetsford (talk) 21:18, 31 May 2020 (UTC)
Note: I've been informed the edit in question has now been suppressed. If this becomes episodic or recurring, please file a new protection request. Thank you for monitoring the page, Doc Strange. Chetsford (talk) 21:38, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:45, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Sajid–Wajid

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – One of the men died, multiple IPs trying to add unsourced cause of death. Schazjmd (talk) 22:28, 31 May 2020 (UTC)

I have added helpful comments in the relevant places both here and at the other confused article. A few hours should allow to see if this subsides. Otherwise, yes, not a bad idea. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 03:47, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 24 hours, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I personally am more cautious when it comes to protecting pages of people who have recently died (sort of like how I handle TFAs) because events like these bring a lot of attention, some of it potentially productive, to articles that might not otherwise ever see them (in this case, the TFA parallel doesn't apply as much, as TFAs are already in great shape). There does appear to be quite a bit of unhelpful editing, though, so I've applied a short protection to save editors some reverts. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 20:25, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Wajid Khan (artist)

Temporary semi-protection: Despite the hatnote on top a lot of people are apparently confusing this artist with another... Short protection (a few hours) would be ideal to prevent further introduction of wrong information in this BLP. Thanks,. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 03:31, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

See this before further action, especially if the IP editing subsides. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 03:48, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
Ok I've had to restore the notice I put a few times already, this isn't going to go away just by itself, a few days (2 or 3), please? Thanks, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 14:11, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
I'm confused. Sources are saying that it's Wajid who died (not Sajid), but the sources list a different age than the article does. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 17:40, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
@Airplaneman: it is indeed "Wajid Khan" (musician, age 43) who died, but that is the Wajid Khan in the Sajid–Wajid article. This other Wajid Khan (artist, current age 39) is alive and, well, reports of his death have been greatly exagerrated... Seemingly, if even admins get confused, a short protection period would not be a bad idea... Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 20:15, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Oops! Protected. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 20:18, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Portal:Current events/News Browser

Indefinite semi-protection: Transcluded at the top of Portal:Current events, a full-protected page which receives 40,000+ views per day. {{u|Sdkb}} talk 11:21, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected indefinitely. We can't preemptively protect pages and there's no evidence of recent vandalism here. However, per the general spirit of WP:PPINDEF it would not be inappropriate to protect this as a frequently transcluded page used in a high visibility page. Chetsford (talk) 18:45, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Jonathan Paul Cambry

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. CLCStudent (talk) 13:48, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Michelle McManus

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Recent uptick in ugly vandalism to a BLP. Wham2001 (talk) 17:58, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This all seems to be occurring from IP editors and at a slow enough cadence the PC reviewers can handle. While this is a BLP, the edits I audited seemed to constitute general disruption rather than defamation. For that reason, I think PC is sufficient. Please file a new request if the situation changes. Chetsford (talk) 18:55, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Violence

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This is a commonly target page for vandals, and it probably won't ever go away because this is a (somewhat) controversial topic. CrazyBoy826 19:03, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Also, because of the frequency of this vandalism, I would suggest semi instead of pending changes because it reduces the revision reviews required. CrazyBoy826 19:04, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I don't think the vandalism is chronic enough to warrant an indef semi. The vast majority of cases similar to this article have not resulted in indefinite semi-protection. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 19:07, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

2020 Formula One World Championship

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Users (mainly IPs or new editors) keep confusing "has permission to"/"is due to" and "will" resulting in the continual addition of speculative information.

Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 17:18, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Politically-inspired BLP violations. Extensive discussion on talk page, ANI and BLP noticeboard hasn't stopped logged-out editors from adding the terrorism label repeatedly. Tarl N. (discuss) 17:22, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Major League Soccer

Semi-protection: High level of IP edit warring against clear consensus. Reverted by every other editor, and previously discussed. Refuses to discuss. Also likely a sock of a previously blocked editor who tried to force the same thing a couple of years ago. oknazevad (talk) 00:45, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism [[User:|Snowded]]Sirjohnperrot (talk) 12:12, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

The editor making this request user:Sirjohnperrot is attempting to make various amendments to the article to include members of the Perrot family (s/he says no coincidence on names). Two have been agreed, one there is no evidence yet of birth or residence and it is in discussion on the talk page. He obviously doens't understand how page protection works.-----Snowded TALK 09:53, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
Unfortunately, the editor making this mostly inaccurate comment is labouring under the misapprehension that my username has a sinister relevance to my contributions. He is however quite correct that I failed to sign my request, sorry about that, hopefully it is now OK Sirjohnperrot (talk) 11:36, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Nazi persecution of the Catholic Church in Poland

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Per the recent ArbCom motion the topic area of Antisemitism in Poland, including the Holocaust, is under a 500/30 prohibition to be enforced by ECP. This article discusses the Jewish situation during the holocaust, so seems to fall under it, but given that I've historically written on Catholic topics, I consider myself involved, so posting here for someone else to review.

Temporary semi-protection: There is a lot of edit warring going on this page regarding the person's age upon death and birth date. We have multiple reliable sources claiming he died at different ages. Some say he died at 68, others that he was 76 upon death. None seem to give a specific birth date. Notes on the edit page asking this to be taken to the talk page to form a consensus were added but have been removed and ignored. Asking for this to be protected until a consensus can be reached on the article's talk page. Helper201 (talk) 03:55, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-Protection

  • Persistant disruptive editing by an IP. Insists on changing consensus on agreed terms in favour of unconventional terms. Have posted here twice previously, user was blocked twice (3 days, then a week on the second time). User is now using a new IP to make changes. A section on the Talk pages was added for the User to comment to explain why they believed those new terms should be used, but ignored it in favour of continuing to change it back.
  • Yes, Dear - Also the User is producing the same edits on other pages: same edits as previous. (hasn't editted this one under the new IP yet)
  • As well on the individual season pages for TNAOOC, IP is insisting on creating Redlinks for the Episode titles for which pages do not exist, rather than to leave them unlinked ex The New Adventures of Old Christine (season 5), The New Adventures of Old Christine (season 4) as well as for 3, 2, and 1

Indefinite Semi-protection: Almost every day there is IP vandalism. This page had temporary semi-protection for a while and no problems ever arose.

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Content dispute that lead to edit warring. Someone has to state in the article edit summary first the REFERENCE that Agust D was not the producer of the song before removing it in the credits. It was clearly stated during the mixtape release that Agust D did produce all the song is his solo comeback, therefore, was included here. Now, anyone has to prove otherwise with a legitimate and unbiased source. "Full protection" because the edit warring involved extended confirmed users. (User:Chiyako92, for example, keeps on adding unsourced content, among others.)

Derek Chauvin

change from full-protection to semi-protection

Newly created Derek Chauvin had a {{g4}} placed on it, based on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Derek Chauvin (police officer).

Nick then put this article under full protection, citing Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Derek Chauvin (police officer). But there were several aspects of the closure of that AFD that were dubious. The closing administrator, for instance, seemed to be under the impression that a claim of BLP1E was a criteria that justified speedy deletion, and had in fact speedy deleted the earlier article after less than one day.

The AFD of Derek Chauvin (police officer) was taken to DRV, and was speedily overturned, so a new AFD could be initiated on Derek Chauvin. However, Derek Chauvin remains under full protection.

I can't remember ever encountering an AFD where contributors who favoured keeping the article were not allowed make edits they thought addressed concerns voiced by those who favoured deletion. So, I call on the protection of this article to be dropped from full protection to semi-protection.

No, I did not request Nick to change the protection level first, as he was advised of the DRV, and did not weigh in there, and AFDs only run for seven days. Geo Swan (talk) 21:13, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

I placed the page protection as an uninvolved administrator, I remain uninvolved and have no opinion concerning deletion. I would however suggest full protection remain until the conclusion of the AfD, at which point I am happy to remove the protection or downgrade to semi-protection as necessary at that point (should the article be kept). Nick (talk) 22:52, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Excuse me Nick but your suggestion that full protection only be removed if the article is kept flies in the face of our long-standing tradition that those who favour keeping an article before AFD have free rein to try to make improvements to it, to address the concerns brought up by those who favour deletion. I have been here for a long time and I have never heard of blocking good faith editors from making good faith edits during the AFD process.

    I think your suggestion that full-protection remain is extraordinary, and requires an extraordinary justification. Geo Swan (talk) 23:58, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

  • That justification would be that users involved in the content dispute and dispute concerning the previous AfD can only be prevented from editing the article by full-protection, due to the extended confirmed access some of the involved parties hold. There are two competing issues at here which I've had to try and deal with - there are those who want the article to be a redirect, respecting the outcome of the previous AfD and those who want the article to be a stand-alone piece of content. Then there are those who think the stand-alone article should be deleted and those who think the stand-alone article should remain. There's certainly a high-degree of overlap, but I'm having to try and handle those two partially conflicting issues in as fair and reasonable a manner as possible.
    That's the edit warring/content dispute angle, and to handle that, I believe it was better to fully protect the article rather than blocking those users, I wanted to avoid blocking users, in order that they could take part in the discussions surrounding this article. I also believe it was important to allow users participating in the discussion to see the article text which exists, so that the discussion on whether the stand-alone article exists could also be considered, which is why I didn't undertake a deletion or delete specific revisions.
    Nick (talk) 11:34, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Sorry, I don't think your explanation, above, rises to "extraordinary".
  • You do not have to deal with the wishes of those who wanted it redirected at the first AFD, because it was so deeply flawed an AFD that the closer couldn't even be bothered to show up to defend themselves at the DRV.
  • We have procedures here on the wikipedia. Even when they work, as designed, they can be imperfect. But that first AFD did not work as designed. That is why it was speedily overturned. So I think you are very mistaken to continue to support it, when even the closer could not be bothered to show up at the DRV to explain themselves.
  • By long-standing tradition those who favour keeping an article have always been allowed to edit articles under AFD, during the seven days AFD remain open, so they can address the issues raised by those who favour deletion. Those improvements do, sometimes, get those who initially favoured deletion to change their minds. Those improvements sway contributors who arrive at the AFD, and see the improved version, and leave keep opinions. It is a very important part of the AFD process, and it is not happening here.
  • Nick, if this article remains locked, during the AFD process, and closes as delete, then I suggest it too will have been a flawed AFD, eligible to be taken to DRV for that reason. That will be a second opportunity for you to explain why you did not remove the protection. Geo Swan (talk) 16:52, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. I see edit warring in the past of this article, its talk page, and at other venues. The AFD appears to be (in a rarity) taking in comments and concerns from both sides. In other words, I don't see a need to drop the protection just so that references can be added in an effort to sway the opposing side, as this is being done on the deletion discussion itself.

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing. ~ Amkgp ✉ 20:19, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

Declined @Amkgp: Pending changes is problematic as every edit by a new user has to be checked and an action taken. Next time you request, please explain why the recent edits are a significant problem. I can understand that they might be wrong or unhelpful, but they look fairly standard for that kind of topic to me (that is, not blatant vandalism). Also, the article talk page has not been edited recently and it has no explanation of an ongoing problem. Johnuniq (talk) 09:45, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

List of dates predicted for apocalyptic events

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This articles current protection runs out on 10 June and without it it becomes subject to either persistent vandalism and adding of pseudoscience and speculative information and for the past year the article has really worked well with its semi-protection when compared to no protection at all which is when problems arise. I request that it’s protection is made permanent as it seems to only get temporary extensions so these issues can be minimised permanently. (MOTORAL1987 (talk) 21:10, 8 June 2020 (UTC))

Declined @MOTORAL1987: Sorry but protection is not given preemptively. If problems resume, ping me from the article talk page with a couple of diff examples and I will protect. Johnuniq (talk) 09:48, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Declined @RedRiver660: It may well be what you say, but my experience is that this sort of concerted effort may indicate a problem with the date. I saw one source (ref 1) but it looks pretty ho-hum to me. Are you sure it's reliable? At any rate, please put a brief explanation on article talk including the multiple sources you mention above. Point new editors to that explanation and try to get them to engage. If that fails, request again. Johnuniq (talk) 10:13, 9 June 2020 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Requesting change in protection level: full protection for a redirect is fully and simply overkill. If there are concerns about previous wrong moves then move-protection can be kept. ECP can be kept as an arbitration enforcement. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 18:57, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Ping to NeilN, since that doesn't seem to have been done. RandomCanadian, why does this need un-protecting? What edits are being needed to this redirect? Primefac (talk) 21:13, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
NeilN hasn't been active and isn't an admin anymore anyway so no need to ping him. There's an edit request about changing the target of this; but in any case full protection is, as far as I understand, only for technical reasons, highly visible pages or pages undergoing an edit-conflict. Fully protecting a move-protected redirect seems to be overkill... RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 21:17, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
(edit conflict) I won't decline this outright in order to allow for a third admin opinion outside of myself and the portecting admin, but I nearly always fully protect redirects; it's akin to salting the page with the redirect in place. When there's consensus that there should be an article as opposed to a redirect, the protection can be undone.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 21:18, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
The fact is everybody seems to agree this shouldn't be an article in any case, the discussion currently taking place is between keeping the redirect to Israel Defence Forces or changing it to Israeli Ground Forces. And the page is move-protected anyways and if somebody is foolish enough to attempt a cut-and-paste move then that can be fixed rather easily. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 21:24, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Apologies, didn't spot that - I'm a novice but it just seemed it might need protection given events over the week-end, if it's got enough to prevent unjustified alterations in the short term that's good.

@Sirjohnperrot: If I may, I suggest you use useful tools (which automate these reports and greatly facilitate dealing with vandalism) such as Twinkle and RedWarn.

Not done for now. @Methu1: I am willing to be convinced otherwise, but at the moment I don't see how semi-protection would solve the problem of autoconfirmed editors with an urge to right great wrongs attempting to slant the article to their POV. That is the reason I changed it to extended-confirmed protected (ECP). ECP is not full-protection. Those who have been contributing most to the content can already edit with the ECP in place. Anyone who cannot edit, who sincerely has a legitimate improvement to make, is free to propose that improvement on the talk page. ~Anachronist (talk) 21:30, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

List of cities and towns in Bangladesh

Temporary full protection: Population data were completely falsified or, assuming good faith, misunderstood, confusing cities with the same-named districts (Zila) or sub-districts (Upazila). Some examples: the areas of Narayanganj and Gazipur (2 major cities around Dhaka) varies from 12 and 47 to 125 and 397 km2; some of the sources are broken link, other (in Bengali, I checked with Google Translate) speak of something else and, paradoxically, other sources (added too by the users who changed the page) confirm the data before this big change. The old sources (2011 census) have been kept in the page and, of course, contradict the new data. Data changed in some articles about various cities and there is not a Wikipedia edition that shows the same data, while reporting all the 2011 census. This mess with haphazard/random (and unsourced) data should be stopped. --87.10.34.30 (talk) 11:49, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

I would like to point out that the author of the major changes, Tselim Rezaa, who contributes only from April 2020, has several warnings into his talk page, and almost all have been ignored, as for this counter-rollbacks, uploading many times lots of deleted file on Commons with copyright problem (see here).

The Last of Us Part II

Temporary pending changes protection: Persistent vandalism within the past two weeks. The article was already semi-protected last month, but the latest change in protection level is set to expire on June 28. Nevertheless, a number of users who edit sporadically are adding unsourced and unverifiable content to the article one after the other. At least one of those users was already slapped with an indef block on enwiki, but I found out that he was also editing the same article on dewiki, where he is not yet blocked. The number of users who are editing the article surged because the article's topic is a game that is set to release this week. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 04:44, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The cadence and content of vandalism makes PC a non-starter. Let's try another year of semi, though, before we go to indefinite. I'm not sure vandalism to an article on a living politician, even if he is no longer active, can be definitively judged as an irreconcilable problem at the height of a major election cycle. If we experience the same issues a year from now, though, I think we'd have a stronger case for making this indefinite. Chetsford (talk) 06:36, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Talk:Kayastha

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – I dislike requesting page protection for any talk page, especially indefinite but it appears justified in this case. For at least two years, a persistent editor has been attempting to impose their views on this page covered by WP:CASTE. They use frequent new socks to make the same, or very similar, edit requests or talk page postings and soon descend to personal attacks when their proposals are not attempted. These have included many attacks, often profane and/or disgustingly insulting personal attacks, against Sitush. Temporary semi-protection in the past has not worked and only delayed the next round of disruptive editing and socking. Indefinite semi-protection is necessary until such time as this person finally decides to move on. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 16:57, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

It is also evident that the vandal is not good with the English language, as his "edits" appear to be lacking in both grammar and spelling. Hopefully, this reason doesn't offend anyone or violates any of Wikipedia's guidelines. The page's history tab will show how many times this person has edited the page.

Full record of the investigation, including the dozen or so Single-purpose Accounts involved and suspicious IP addresses also linked in the COI noticeboard, or directly viewable here. WhinyTheYounger (talk) 16:49, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

@WhinyTheYounger: Thanks for working on COI problems however I don't think these qualify for protection. Skipping the first two entries, the situation appears to be:
The first two entries are Eurasia Group and Ian Bremmer and I see some SPAs have added fluff, although not recently. I'll leave this open for a while in case anyone else wants to comment, particularly since DGG has recommended semi-protection here at WP:COIN. My current feeling is that we might decline protection now, but ask again if another example of problematic editing occurs (ask at my talk or here). I changed the 3rd and 4th entries from a redirect to the current title. Johnuniq (talk) 05:20, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
  • I continue to urge semi-protection on all related articles, ,including the ones that will be turned into redirects, because of the continuing very recent and continuing paid editing from known undeclared page editors and their socks. This is our basic line of defense. It's not usual to do a very long term of semi-protection, but this has been so blatant I'd suggest 2 years. Maybe they'll give up. the only alternative is a lot of otherwise unnecessary effort from good editors in watching these. some of those with no recent editing are books which have already expanded as far as possible; they are very likely to be much abbreviated or rediected/merged, andI would expect to see some attention then, (and in some sense this is a precedent, because there are likely to be quite a few more similar sock rings--we need to be look carefully at article groups on a person and their books, or a company and its branches,--though some will be so notable as to be justified), DGG ( talk ) 05:43, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

Criticism of Twelver Shia Islam

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – The article is about criticism of sect by others & not about inter-sect divisions & criticisms. If we go by the logic of including it (inter-sect divisions & criticisms) here, this article should then be merged with 'Criticism of Islam', or there should be detailed discussion of intra-sect criticism there.

I clearly gave reasons and precedent of the legitimacy of the section’s inclusion in edit summaries and on talk pages; however, the apologist repeatedly ignores them without response. I will restate here: clear precedence is provided from Criticism of the Catholic Church#Internal. This is clear intra-sect criticism, since Catholicism is a sect of Christianity. 49.180.153.15 (talk) 07:28, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
As I replied to your similar question at my talk: I protected Criticism of Twelver Shia Islam because there is a section at the bottom of its talk page which offers an opinion on the edit. Please make your case there (on article talk) rather than in edit summaries while edit warring. Johnuniq (talk) 07:41, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

  • I don't think the IP from Boulder, Colorado, is the same editor as the blocked one who inserted the fake reference, who I suspect is from Africa. The IP is wrong though. The reference makes no mention of 2nd millennium Mesopotamia, or the Hittites of Asia Minor. It only mentions the 3rd-millennium Sumerian reliefs and the later Greek depictions. The reference is fake because none of the information in the tagged sentence can be found in that source. The IP editor hasn't checked whether the source supports the material.

List of cities and towns in Bangladesh

Temporary full protection: Population data were completely falsified or, assuming good faith, misunderstood, confusing cities with the same-named districts (Zila) or sub-districts (Upazila). Some examples: the areas of Narayanganj and Gazipur (2 major cities around Dhaka) varies from 12 and 47 to 125 and 397 km2; some of the sources are broken link, other (in Bengali, I checked with Google Translate) speak of something else and, paradoxically, other sources (added too by the users who changed the page) confirm the data before this big change. The old sources (2011 census) have been kept in the page and, of course, contradict the new data. Data changed in some articles about various cities and there is not a Wikipedia edition that shows the same data while reporting all the 2011 census. This mess with haphazard/random (and unsourced) data should be stopped. After my first rollback, this user insists to vandalize the page with this mass of falsified data. --79.12.248.175 (talk) 03:03, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Criticism of Twelver Shia Islam

Extended/Indefinite protection against IP-editing: The article is already in temporary semi-protection, by Johnuniq, based on my request. But on further investigation I found out that, IPs 49.xxx.xxx.xxx have been involved in edit-warring on the page for long, these IPs have been involved in disruptive-editing for at least 5 years (I didn't investigated earlier to that) and have had conflict with many users like, ParthikS8, Snowsky Mountain, FreeatlastChitchat, ԱշոտՏՆՂ, Jim1138, Rsrikanth05, FoCuSandLeArN, CatcherStorm, pushing the page into semi-protection multiple times. Based on the behavior I highly suspect that as soon as page goes un-protected it'll be again become turf of disruptive-editing and leading to edit-war, hence, I place this request for extended/indefinite protection against IP-editing.--Fztcs 08:18, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

In the article's history, showing the last 500 edits goes back to August 2014. In that time, various 49.x.x.x IPs have made a total of 31 edits from January 2016 to June 2020. I'm in a rush and won't take any action at the moment but I don't think the article is ready for more protection yet. Per WP:PROT, protection is not applied in anticipation of trouble. Attracting more editors to the talk page would be very helpful as there needs to be a consensus demonstrated regarding the IP's proposals. Johnuniq (talk) 09:48, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Multiple IP addresses removing sourced contents and adding unsourced material so can we have some mild protection this time? Also, please note that there is a sponsored campaign going on to whitewash this page on Twitter. Thank you. GSS 💬 13:05, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

While I also support ongoing semi-protection (perhaps auto-confirmed), it is a bit dishonest of this user to attribute any attempt to change the page to the boogieman of a "sponsored campaign" (if that's even true, perhaps this is an attempt to avoid having to defend the contents of the article in good-faith discussion, or seeing nails everywhere, so to speak). This page was entirely hijacked and written by one user (recently gone) about two years ago (July 2018), completely unilaterally, and any attempts to change the page or engage in productive discussion were stonewalled equally unilaterally (someone appears to have taken up the mantle...). The page violates multiple Wiki neutrality policies and verges on being an wp:attack page, indeed engaging in whitewashing of the role of certain parties and engaging in government apologism. Countless users have been trying to edit the page for years, it's not new. Even admins have proposed a rewrite process, which is very thankfully under way, to the dismay of some. Sapedder (talk) 13:53, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
In addition: if anything, a quick search reveals that most tweets on the subject over the last month seem to have been written by bots (long numbers in their Twitter handles) tweeting against the subject. Again, quite dishonest of this user, but quite a twist. Who is really defending a campaign? Sapedder (talk) 14:11, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

@Sapedder: the evidence of a sponsored campaign is with El_C already. GSS 💬 15:41, 18 June 2020 (UTC)
@GSS: please act honorably and don't resort to wild conspiratorialism now ("evidence" aside. the subject unsurprisingly triggers discussion around this time of year, the talk page discussion predates it). Your attempt to get other users blocked nearly boomeranged due to your own conduct previously. Your defense of Xray's writing can't last forever (it turns out he was the one with a political agenda, after he was doxed by Indian right-wingers). Pretending that consensus can be blocked by simply avoiding discussion, but quickly showing up to revert, is not good faith and is being noted. Between your attitude, frivolous attempts to get others blocked, and now this tweet nonsense, I implore you to drop the underhanded attempts to avoid dealing with others, and engage in good faith (You have not commented on the Congress edit, which I have had posted in my Sandbox for over three weeks now, despite your request to post it there, and my notifications. Just so you know, wp:IDLI is not a valid defense.)

The Last of Us Part II

Reduction in protection level: From full protection to extended-confirmed protection. Practically all of the edit-warring was done by auto-confirmed users. Actually, at a glance, it seems like all of the edit-warring was done by autoconfirmed users. It doesn't make sense to have this at full protection with that in mind. It's unnecessarily hurting progress being made on the article. The protection is due to expire in a couple days, but this game is still fresh and has recently been involved in heated debates, so I suspect it will still be subject to edit-warring on expiry. I request the protection be lowered immediately (ie, not wait until full-protection expires) to extended-confirmed, and be kept at extended-confirmed for a period of 3-5 further days. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 13:44, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Tagging @Ymblanter as the protecting admin. Has a notice on talk stating they will be busy until 1 July and may be unable to respond in time, so posting request here. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 13:46, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
I have fully protected the article on purpose (and then refused to revert toi the pre-war version at the talk page) because this is a content dispute which infolves confirmed and extended confirmed users. Lowering the level to extended confirmed would give an advantage to ext6ended confirmed users. If it is impossible to reach consensus at the talk page, the parties must look for mediation.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:53, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
Ymblanter, looking at the page history, the edit warring involved User:Apache287 and User:Aardwolf68, both not extended-confirmed and seem to show unfamiliarity with Wikipedia's policies, and made no attempt to discuss or take it to talk as they were advised towas wrong here - this discussion was eventually taken to talk, but edit-warring persisted in the meantime. All of the various extended-confirmed users were on the same side, and only reverting the edits of these two users, not of each other. Most other editors on the page were either extended-confirmed, or only made minor edits. I don't really like the idea of saying extended-confirmed gives an advantage, so full protection should be used to stop everyone from editing and leave many sections of the articles as stubs. There are many uncontroversial areas of the page, such as the sales section, that can be improved. The article is way behind where it should be, and many sections are a mess, and the full protection is really not helping. ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 14:04, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
I am sorry but that all extended confirmed users are on the same side and some of them advocate for extended confirmed protection in something which is really a content dispute greatly disturbs me. I will not object another administrator having a look (I am not going to formally close this section anyway), but I will not lower the protection myself, unless consensus by all parties have been reached at the talk page.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:07, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
Ymblanter, I see your POV and recognise my bias in the matter. I haven't edited the page before (at least, I don't think I have), but I do have interest in the subject and am extended-confirmed, so I can see my lack of impartiality. Given that it seems there's only one section, and the related portions in the lead, which is causing the most dispute my view was to at least allow editing to improve the various other parts of the article, which are not really controversial. Nevertheless, I can see your cause for concern and reasoning for your decision. Is there no appropriate solution which would allow for that kind of editing, but not further changes to the disputed areas until there is appropriate consensus? ProcrastinatingReader (talk) 14:22, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
No, I do not think this is technically possible. Let us wait for another administrator anyway.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:24, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
Just to add my viewpoint I am kind of sick of the mistruths being spread about my conduct, in this outrage over what is effectively noting that there were some prominent dissenting critical views on a video game and maybe it would read better to note why Metacritic didn't pick that up in this anomalous case, claiming that I made no effort to "take it to talk" or that I was circumventing it when I was the one who set up the section to have it discussed[17] and am active in those and other discussions. I was perfectly happy having a discussion on the matters involved but what happened was people who were not involved in the talk at that time repeatedly removed sections citing claims of violating "original research", when the additions were supported by the sources already referenced in the paragraph, or entirely false reports of vandalising the page, this latter allegation being made repeatedly by one user who was responsible for demanding page protection[18], badmouthing others to multiple admins[19][20][21] when their sole contribution to the discussion at that point was "It is actually hilarious that how haters and review bombers from Metacritic come here and complain about it, not knowing how Metascore works" before expanding to make other snarky replies to other users. [22] You can say that I'm not as experienced as those "on the other side" and that's probably true but what does it say when I'm the one hashing it out on talk and trying to come to a fair compromise between parties and it's those "more experienced" ones who are using insults and making it out to be deliberate misconduct? Apache287 (talk) 15:04, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
Not unprotected I wholeheartedly agree with Ymblanter here. That you are describing "sides" should tell you that there is a problem. Articles are fully protected to prevent edit warring between editors, of all confirmation levels. We don't use protection for one side or the other. Once there is consensus, the page will be unprotected. (Note the protection can and will be protected if it expires before consensus is reached. Woody (talk) 15:10, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of three days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @Ed6767: Please do not edit war like that! Post at WP:AIV (or WP:ANI if urgent). The new account (now blocked by someone else for a week) was just blanking some stuff—that is not an urgent matter which must be reverted right now and some admins would block everyone they saw in such a case. The talk page was last edited in February 2018. Johnuniq (talk) 05:25, 21 June 2020 (UTC)
Johnuniq, to clarify: I was not intentionally edit warring here - I immediately opened an AIV as soon as the issues persisted following multiple UWs, they still continued to remove content in and trip the edit filter without explaination - as I had checked both the edit history and the users filter log, I saw no use in engaging regarding unexplained blanking of content, and/or blanking of the entire page and how persistent and disruptive some of the content removals were, especially considering the fact that the UAE has faced scrutiny for the facts within the content removed and I did consider it as potential censorship. In any other scenario, AIV usually responds earlier and helps stop this, but the backlog over at AIV when I reported meant I had to constantly revert the same unexplained edits and blanking - and in good faith edits, I would always seek resolution on the talk page - but no edit summaries, no replies to my UWs, no other edits but the same ones over and over gave me no indication of this. Edit wars suck, but these accounts clearly served no other purpose than to be disruptive and blank pages, and retaining page content and prevention of disruptive edits is important for me, especially regarding topics that may becone targeted like this. Hope that clarifies things. Ed6767 talk! 05:40, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Declined. Disagreement has been slow-motion and has been diminishing in recent days. One user made one radical change, days ago, which was reverted, and has made a few smaller changes since then. More to the point, I don't see any attempt by anyone to discuss their disagreements on the article talk page. MelanieN (talk) 16:43, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism – The article is already a good article but few IPs are vandalizing it too frequently. Hence it's standard might be compromised for such disruptive edits. So, I request for the ECP for indefinite period for this article. Sony R (talk) 12:11, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected for a period of 3 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I chose PC protection because problem edits are not very frequent but are spread out over a period of months. Also because there are some constructive edits by IPs which can then be accepted under PC protection. MelanieN (talk) 19:24, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Temporary Semi-protection: Recent sweeping edits without discussion on talk page, the subject has a forthcoming book and, per the talk page, the page is known for advertising and promotion. I feel that semi-protection for a series of weeks around the book's publication may help with the problem. More information is available on the Talk Page, which I have been trying to use instead of engaging in an edit war. Hobomok (talk) 00:53, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Declined @Hobomok: Sorry but the other editor would not be affected by semi-protection. Only one recent edit was by an IP and that was a reasonable edit (not vandalism). I'm afraid the traditional procedures of discussion with attempts to get input from noticeboards is required. If COI is a possible problem, try WP:COIN. Johnuniq (talk) 05:18, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

The Last of Us Part II

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing. While several requests for this article within the last few days have been repeatedly fulfilled and declined by other admins, the pending changes protection that was applied most recently has still failed to stop IP users and other new users from editing the article in different but similarly disruptive manners. Another admin had also applied temporary full protection, but when it expired, the disruptive editing has resumed. Applying extended confirmed protection will allow qualified users to still be able to maintain the quality and neutrality of the article. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 17:16, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Sorry, PR, I posted that notice under the wrong section heading. I had not even looked at this article yet; that message was intended for the 2020 India-Pakistan border conflict. WP has been doing that to me all day today - putting me under the wrong heading when I click "edit". Here is what I have actually done (after I discovered the error and while you were writing this note):
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The rate of vandalism by IPs was way beyond what PC can handle. I gave it a week's semi-protection. The underlying PC protection will continue after the semi-protection expires. As for the disagreements between autoconfirmed users, I hope you will use the talk page to work those out. MelanieN (talk) 22:57, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Not done The last creation attempt was Oct. '19? Woody (talk) 10:20, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
Question. The page has been repeatedly created and deleted. Each time there's another creation attempt, we might have to go through another lengthy and contentious AfD process. It'd probably be better if we just salt the page, thereby forcing future creation attempts to go through AfC instead. There's no rule against salting pages which have been repeatedly recreated, even if the last creation attempt was long ago. Makes sense? Kind regards, —Unforgettableid (talk) 17:33, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. The first two creations (which I am counting as one attempt) were nothing like the one that lasted. Non-autoconfirmed users can't create it now anyway. No one has attempted to recreate it after the last AFD (noting that was the second attempt) and the AFD close allowed for recreation if more sources become available. Twice in ten years doesn't meet a reasonable threshold for repeatedly recreated. Woody (talk) 18:27, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

PC --> SP. A quick survey finds no obvious edits by anons that are anything other than tendentious. PC is an overhead, requiring constant review, and in each case the response appears to be to revert, so this is not a good candidate for PC and should be switched to indefinite SP. I would do this but am involved. Guy (help!) 10:07, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @Guy: I removed PC and gave it 3 months semi. There haven't been many protections in the past and I don't think indefinite can be justified atm although I'm sure you are right that it will turn out that way. Please ask again when disruption occurs after this expires. Johnuniq (talk) 10:19, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Euronymous

Semi-protection: For the past few months, there's been what seems to be several different IP users consistently adding an attempt at a joke to this article. The infobox contains a picture of two band members. One is the singer in the band Mayhem, whose stage name was Dead and who committed suicide. Pictured next to him is Euronymous, the article's subject, who was murdered. The IP users insist on changing the photo's caption from "Dead (left) and Euronymous (right)" to ""Dead (left) and Euronymous (right) also dead." NJZombie (talk) 04:21, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

User has said they'll be back without reaching consensus. Can't out here, but here are some quotes:
"Nobody is required to be open-minded to neo-nazis, you absolute dingus. I will not tolerate 'fashwave' (a completely fake genre) being included on an official synthwave wiki, and I will be back to remove it again."
"If there is any part of the community agreeing that neo nazis deserve validation on an official wikipedia page that influences a fanbase and curious people searching the genre, you should be banned for entertaining the notion, and so should they."
"lol ban my edits, I'll just clear my IP later and re-edit it again I will not give up."

Hebephilia

Indefinite semi-protection: I'm requesting that this article be indefinitely semi-protected like the Pedophilia article is indefinitely semi-protected. I'm not asking for the talk page (like the Pedophilia talk page) to also be semi-protected; just the article. The reason I am requesting this is because the article continues to be the target of long-term sock disruption. The two socks are WhenDatHotlineBling and My Royal Young, especially the latter. Not only are the edits disruptive, it's become common for one or more of them to need to be WP:Revision deleted and/or WP:Oversighted. This is one of a number of articles these two socks use to harass me. Beyond these two, the topic is highly controversial, and I can only see indefinite semi-protection for the article as a positive. For those who may need confirmation on the socking matter, Berean Hunter, Drmies, Johnuniq and Girth Summit are aware of what is going on with the socking and harassment.

List of Cyberchase episodes

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent arbitrary and unsourced alteration of episode air dates by a string of anonymous editors. In each instance, the anonymous editors were instructed to cite sources for verification, only for the information to be arbitrarily, unilaterally, and repeatedly changed again, also with no sources cited for verification, and without any of these editors bothering to discuss the validity of those edits on the talk page. Because this is a wide-spread issue that keeps occurring every time page protection expires, semi-protecting the page indefinitely may be the only recourse. I will also be sending a request to WP:ANI for disciplinary action to be taken against the offending editors. Thanks for your consideration. --Jgstokes (talk) 22:34, 27 June 2020 (UTC)

This is a weird one. One editor seems to be constantly reverting the edits of another editor with no explanation, but the edits seem to just be rearranging the lists. I've warned the OWN editor about edit warring (which imo is the bigger problem), but am not sure if anything else is needed right now beyond that. The next step would be (partial) blocking or ECP protection. I'd rather get a second opinion on this before backing a decision on what to do. — Wug·a·po·des​ 01:11, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Temporary protection to auto-confirmed users:: My first page-protection request. My apologies if I did it wrong. The page came to my attention when I was reverting vandalism. A number of brand new editors keep showing up adding information without WP:RS and deleting information without edit summaries. These new editors each make numerous edits, most of which appear to be unhelpful or cyclical -- adding, deleting and moving the same information. It's hard to make any sense of all the activity so that it can be restored to a stable version, and it doesn't appear that any long-term editors are keeping a close eye on it.

I looked at this old version of the article from January 2020, and it looks much better than the flurry of activity that makes the article unstable and hard to restore back to a stable version. I believe the unsourced information being added is inaccurate, e.g. where the Mr. Roger's has been changing from correct, to deleted, recent edit.

I believe a short term protection to auto-confirmed users might allow experienced editors to clean up the article or restore it to a stable version before these IPs are allowed back. --David Tornheim (talk) 23:41, 29 June 2020 (UTC)
