Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content to BLP due to subject being in the news regarding a potential transfer. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 12:14, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
- Opinion polling for the 2025 Polish presidential election (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Reason: High level of IP vandalism. Octilllion (talk) 12:40, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
- Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 12:56, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Temporary pending changes protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Back and forth dispute with an IP editor who seems to view my language templates for Chinese terms and removal of the existence of a film as a reference to...itself as "vandalism". I'd like to nip this simmering edit war in the bud. They have already come to my talk page to yell at me about it without making any material improvements to the page, which I have done in the form of references, language templates, a new section, and removing unreferenced material.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Niasoh ❯❯❯ Wanna chat? 15:29, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – IP hopper repeatedly adding unsourced diplomat claims. Jalen Barks (Woof) 16:19, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. 💽 🌙Eclipse 💽 🌹 ⚧ (she/they) talk/edits 17:15, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protection: Disruption from an auto-confirmed account and an IP (possibly a sockpuppet) who persist with copyright violations. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 18:19, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Question: Is this still an issue now that the copyrighted image has been deleted from commons? — rsjaffe 🗣️ 18:21, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
- The account won't easily give up on trying to get their way, that's for sure. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 22:17, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Frequent disruptive edits by anonymous IP users. The subject's birthplace is not officially disclosed, yet multiple users are repeatedly changing it without any reliable sources. This has led to persistent vandalism. To prevent further unsourced changes, semi-protection is requested. AstuteFlicker (talk) 18:41, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent sockpuppetry. EF5 18:58, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent sockpuppetry. EF5 18:59, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Vandalism is a huge issue. People are repeatedly adding the heading "You, you are poop". This has happened at least 20 times. Cyber the tiger🐯 (talk) 19:20, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Dr vulpes (Talk) 20:31, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Because we have arrived at a new year, all the entries are being actively updated for 2024. Unfortunately, a number of novice editors (some of them possibly violating COI), are making mistakes in their haste to update their favourite local airport. Ok, I'm being harsh, but even Assuming Good Faith, this article is sustaining damage. It either needs protection, or extra eyes on every new edit. Meanwhile I am repairing whatever I can find, but my own editing skills are limited. There is also a decade-long edit-war regarding the definition of "Europe". Airports in Turkey, Cyprus, Madeira, the Canary Islands, and Russia are involved. Please help! WendlingCrusader (talk) 19:46, 2 February 2025 (UTC)

Already protected by administrator Mojo Hand. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 23:46, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Recent repeated IP vandalism. Been temp protected before. High level of reverts because article is a magnet. ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 22:47, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Sockpuppetry – persistent block evasion by IP address. 173.220.69.186 (talk) 23:13, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: High level of IP vandalism over the past day and higher levels in the past month. Jon698 (talk) 23:51, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Lots of activity from new or IP editors, which introduces OR or BLP editing problems. This is a topic that involves crime and people constantly add the names of non-convicted people which has to be reverted. PARAKANYAA (talk) 00:31, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Politically biased comments. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 01:23, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
