List of Girl Meets World episodes

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Has had chronic problem with IP/newly registered users altering viewership ratings numbers with data which is backed by references considered unreliable (e.g., wikia for Girl Meets World, sites where anyone can create their own web pages, etc.). This page has been semi-protected before, on May 15 (2 weeks) and May 31 (1 month), for this reason, and the page is coming off the most recent semi-protection, only for these edits to viewership numbers and use of questionable references to resume not more than a few minutes after the expiration of the protection. Alteration to this viewership data is not confined to the IP/newly registered users ... even disruptive registered editors and possible sockpuppets of previously blocked editors have gotten into the act, but that's being dealt with by blocking those responsible. But with this constant tinkering of the article for accurate viewership data from reliable sources at the IP user level and sockpuppet level, see the problem?.

Battle of Daraa City

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. Sources indicate the rebel offensive ended with an operational failure for the rebels as the Syrian Army managed to defend virtually all of their positions, making it a Syrian Army victory. Registered users have not expressed any problem with this, while IP editors have pushed the result to be indecisive without providing any sources.

LGBT rights in Belarus

Temporary full-protection: The article has a gradually escalating edit-war (along with associated articles that touch on the same issue, though the reverts on those have not been as frequent). Protection will assist in reaching a consensus without resorting to account blocks for edit-warring. ( talk) 17:21, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Non-admin comment - " Personally, seeing the history, I agree with you. Both unregistered,new, and autoconfirmed users are fighting on this whole entire article regarding a political viewpoint regarding rights. Wikipedia should basically stand to what rights in Belarus would be given regarding LGBT people, and should not be subjected for a political fight or debate over a simple subject, and since semi-protection may not work, it

is best to have administrators to only edit the page, to prevent further conflict or administrators from banning people from the site. So full protection in my opinion, I will support because there is no guarantee that semi-protecting this page will work. Vmkcheat ( talk) 18:52, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply

List of Big Brother 16 housemates (UK)

Temporary full protection: Persistent vandalism – It's been temp protected, it's currently got pending edits but still, anons violating BLP privacy, it needs full protection. GimliDotNet ( talk) 15:45, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Non-admin comment - " If new and unregistered users repeatedly bother the administrators and reviewers from getting good edits on a article,

then semi-protection is best needed, as only those with auto-confirmed priviledges (like me), can edit this article. However, if by any means people would continue this on a semi-protected page and a lot of edits would need to be undone, then full protection is the better option. If you were to go for semi-protection so autoconfirmed users can edit it, then there would be enough justifying the conflict on the page, see the following information below regarding the locks:

General locks you can request on this page:

Pending Changes: All new and unregistered users edits are subject to review. (This means autoconfirmed users, reviewers, and admins can bypass this lock, and changes take immediate effect, level two pending changes is not generally used on the English Wiki.)

Semi protection: Only users who have "autoconfirmed" status, reviewer status, or administrator priviledges can edit this article, sometimes this is used to prevent violations of BLP, persistent block evasion, and vandalism of pages from happening.

Full protection: Only a administrator of Wikipedia can edit a article with this kind of lock, which would be best IF semi protection of a article does not work against a war going on a wikipedia article, so requesting a temporary full protection prevents most autoconfirmed and trustworthy people with faithful and good people who do not violate the policies be locked out of making useful edits.

Move protection: This lock should be only requested to prevent people from moving a page whether leaving a redirect or not to another page irrelevant to what should be here. For instance, to prevent conflicts with the wikipedia article "Fullmetal Alchemist", it is best for any created page related to that article to be move protected so the page similar to it does not get moved to one whole entire article, as long as the article has enough accurate information.

Create protection: This lock should be requested IF people are creating pages that have been repeatedly been deleted by administration, but people continue to create for their gain or to waste time from administration.

As someone who is autoconfirmed and randomly patrols pages I need to know about, I would rather not have time wasted looking for administrator only edits, it would prevent those who have good knowledge and those who can be priviledged to edit good articles to make them better from editing in good faith, so I recommend you go for semi protection. If it doesn't work, then administrator only editing can be requested. [1] Vmkcheat ( talk) 18:32, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply

Wouldn't semi-protection be more effective? Would only go to the nuclear option of full protection if there's a lot of autoconfirmed disruption too and from what you say it's just anons. tutterMouse ( talk) 19:34, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply
Declined Nothing serious going on here. If there were content meeting redaction criteria I would consider bumping it to semi, but all I see is run of the mill vandalism/unsourced additions. However if the edit rate climbs much higher we should consider semi for that reason alone. Moving forward it may be beneficial to consult the protecting admin ( NeilN) about such concerns MusikAnimal talk 23:07, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply

Try speaking with the admin who locked the page you are requesting first. If the admin failed to answer your request, then the option would be best to ask for this option, because I am autoconfirmed and have the option to edit the page, but the reason why it seems to be locked for non-autoconfirmed users was because people repeatedly decided to evade blocks so they can damage it with what they want. If the administration and/or reviewers cannot handle reviewing edits from new and unregistered users, then the best option for them is to either have the semi protection lock available, or the full protection lock active, but as I am someone who undoes damage to pages, it is best you speak to the "GB fan" user who protected the page if you haven't. If you already have and they failed to answer, you may disregard my comment. Vmkcheat ( talk) 10:39, 30 June 2015 (UTC) reply

In addition to it being unsourced, I have deleted the addition several times from the page while making clear that there is no confirmation for it, only for the poster in question to immediately revert my edit so the rumored information is still kept as fact.

Temporary semi-protection: Requesting 30 day semi-protection for persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content by IP hopping users, particularly the addition of date ranges that cannot be substantiated and that will never meet WP:V. For instance in these edits how can anyone ever verify whether Mr. Bean the Animated series premiered on April 30, 2015, or that My Little Pony: Equestria Girls began on January 1, 2015? There's other weird stuff too, like that Tanken Driland, which is in the Current Programming section, is slated to air "TBA". Doesn't that make this future content, not current?

Temporary full protection: Previous protection was not long enough (at least a week would be nice). Due to the actions of editors on this page it is clear that there is a need for 3rd party intervention and mediation. Von Hebel and FactStraight were unwilling to build consensus during the protection period, and immediately engaged in a full edit of the article (3 revert rule) immediately upon release of article from protection: 41 revisions/incidents of vandalism made on July 6 immediately upon close of protection (this is not the first time so many edits were made within a 24 hour period by Von Hebel &/or FactStraight). Numerous legit sources were removed again with no reason given. Von Hebel & FactStraight have decided this article and King Ludwig II should be merged and are making edits to fit this unsubstantiated perspective (sockpuppeting???). The 41 edits made were not toward consensus, and for anyone educated on the issue clear vandalism. The 41 edits were never explained or supported in the Talk page (which is how every edit has been by both Von Hebel & FactStraight). All of the consensus on the talk page from during the period of protection (including new sources) were ignored completely. Please provide additional protection immediately. 200.33.20.102 ( talk) 17:16, 7 July 2015 (UTC)Concerned reply

Indefinite/Permanent semi-protection. This page has been semi-protected like 4-5 times in less than a year. And every time the protection expires, vandalism starts to take place. I have requested this kind of protection in the past, but it usually ends up being only about a month. This is becoming a major problem, and there are no signs of this getting any better.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Requesting 30 day semi-protection from IPs. IP-hopping vandal from Amarillo, Texas, US (ISP: Suddenlink) keeps making a mess of this article by introducing POV content, deliberately falsifying names, and engaging in other subtle vandalism. I've been dealing with him since at least August 2014. He never speaks, he never explains or sources his edits, etc. For example, see this edit where he changes a character name from Amy to Chelsea (episode "A Pretty Great Day With a Girl"). Though I wouldn't normally point to a bootleg YouTube video as proof, a quick check (see 0:43-0:47) suggests this is incorrect. The user does a lot of good-hand/bad-hand edits, which makes spotting the vandalism very difficult. However you'll also notice that he changes the episode title "Belson's Sleepover" to "Belson's Sleepover...OF TERROR!" He's done this about a dozen times, with no explanation or references. MSN doesn't support this title, for instance. Thanks. Cyphoidbomb ( talk) 15:34, 8 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Death of Jean Charles de Menezes‎

Pending changes: Possibly indefinite. Last major vandalism (by maliciously changing the word "killed" to "murdered" without basis or citation) at 19:31 on the 6th. August 2014 by an IP [11], and the same person behinding it also made pro- Trotskyite or pro- Anarchist edits on quick succession under the same IP address-number ( Special:Contributions/90.214.150.211). The vandalism was left undetected or unchallenged for almost a year. The article was also (possibly) vandalised twice on the 8th. and 9th. July ( [12]; [13]; [14]; [15]) earlier that year (by an editor sharing the same nationality as the (deceased) person, whose circumstances of death is the subject of the article, deliberately using the word "murder", which is a defined legal term in the United Kingdom (England and Wales), in place and stead of the word "killing", almost certainly for emotional non- WP:NPOV reasons). The same (possible) vandalism took place on the 15th. May 2009 by another Brazilian editor [16]; and by an IP ( Special:Contributions/131.111.237.93) from the University of Cambridge on the 16th. March 2009 [17] (until being reverted ( [18]) later in the same month).

ICC World Twenty20

Temporary semi-protection: IP vandalism has resumed immediately after the expiry of the previous protection period. The IP in question appears to be the same multi-IP vandal (based in Bangladesh) that has recently targeted the articles on several other future cricket tournaments, resulting in their semi-protection (namely, Cricket World Cup, 2019 Cricket World Cup, 2023 Cricket World Cup, 2016 ICC World Twenty20, and 2020 ICC World Twenty20).

Galileo affair

Temporary semi-protection: I requested protection earlier, and it was granted for one week; vandalism continued immediately after it expired ( [26], [27], [28], [29]). All this has been accompanied by the same creepy talk page posts, with IPs replying to themselves: Talk:Galileo_affair#Drastic_effort. Can we please put a 6-month semi-protection on the article? Contrary to Rsrikanth05's appraisal, I don't think there's any content or POV dispute going on - these weird IP edits and comments are a longstanding problem on the page and are basically random. - Darouet ( talk) 20:17, 10 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Looking into this, I see that my June request was granted, but that a second request was declined because of ongoing talk page discussion. However, there is no discussion there: just the same IP statements clearly written by someone with psychological problems. I don't mean this in a derogatory way - this is been a longstanding issue at Galileo affair and Talk:Galileo affair, e.g. Talk:Galileo_affair/Archive_2#Hijack (where Roger is a real editor and not crazy, but only makes one comment), Talk:Galileo_affair/Archive_2#Self-contradiction, Talk:Galileo_affair/Archive_2#Trotskyite tract, Talk:Galileo_affair/Archive_1#C.jeynes, Talk:Galileo_affair/Archive_1#Feeble, etc. I don't know if User:Azul411 and their many socks are making these IP edits - they tend to edit Galileo affair and Talk:Galileo affair in the same way - but that shouldn't matter in this case. - Darouet ( talk) 23:20, 10 July 2015 (UTC) reply
Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. There's still not a high level of disruption but hopefully a one month semi will put an end to what is currently happening. NeilN talk to me 06:08, 11 July 2015 (UTC) reply
Thanks NeilN. - Darouet ( talk) 07:51, 11 July 2015 (UTC) reply
Hi, @ Darouet: and @ NeilN:, the only reason I stated that the edit was POV pushing is because in my experience, IPs/new users who repeatedly remove cited blocks of text or add unsourced blocks are invariably involved in POV pushing. -- Rsrikanth05 ( talk) 10:57, 11 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Rettetast ( talk) 07:34, 12 July 2015 (UTC) reply
@ Rettetast: What if I say they are promotions? I go through the edits every time an IP makes changes and revert them if they are non-notable list entries for some time now. In this case it's not a user who can be helped or advised, but they are multiple IPs and you want me to help each one of them. I don't want to drive away good faith edits and that's the exact reason why I asked a PC protection. I want some other admin to reconsider the request. On denial of another admin, I strongly suggest that the denying admin add a page notice on the notability policy.. Regards-- JAaron95 Talk 08:00, 12 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Novak Djokovic

Semi-protection. Numerous acts of recent vandalism - too many to count up in the last few days, have regrettably rather spoilt this article in recent days during Djokovic's recent participation and ultimate victory in the 2015 Wimbledon Championships – Men's Singles. But please be assured that the high level of vandalism is certainly not just confined to when he participates at Wimbledon. A view of the public logs shows a quite shocking level of persistent vandalism and persistent disruptive editing over a number of years, including grossly insulting material and violations of the biography of living persons policy. There have been over a dozen temporary protection measures previously put in place for this article, including in 2013, a six month temporary protection measure after a "long term problem with the article". In 2014, "pending changes protection" was put in place for a year, but when that measure recently expired the high level of vandalism has returned again. One problem has been new registered users or IP users deliberately altering facts or inserting incorrect content which has sometimes gone undetected for several hours or longer. It is evidently clear to me from viewing the recent history and public logs that a long-term protection measure would be beneficial to protect violations for one of the most high-profile sportsmen in the world.

Muhammad ibn al Uthaymeen

Semi-protection: The article was protected until July 8, at which point the anonymous IP stalker harassing me immediately started reverting again. I believe several mods on here are aware of this situation from before. The Madhhab article has the same problem: it was protected until July 8, at which point roaming IP addresses immediately began the petty reverts of anything I do, even punctuation corrections, once again. In addition, several articles feature the same problem but have not been protected before:

  1. Template:Barelvi
  2. Asma'iyyat
  3. World Islamic Mission
  4. Hamasah
  5. Barelvi

The reverts have gone back to articles I haven't edited in over a year in some cases, so they're definitely stalking my contribs and possibly reading these requests. I'm not sure what else to do other than repeat the semi-protection requests. MezzoMezzo ( talk) 05:02, 15 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Indefinite Semi-protection: IP editors continually adding unsourced information despite repeated attempts to engage in discussion and repeated requests for a source.

Semi-protection: Constantly vandalised with people idiotically changing absolutely every single reference to his name to include the word "Lord", often changing his nickname to "Watsinho" and adding this picture as his infobox picture (sorry, it's too late at night right now for me to try to work out how to link that image as a text link, so I just treated it as external). This has been going on for more than a month, and every time it gets reverted it pretty much gets changed back within 24 hours. There aren't enough people patrolling this page to win this battle.

  • @ Cplakidas: Is this related to the dustup over Utigur? Could you explain the dispute in a nutshell? Krakatoa Katie 21:55, 14 July 2015 (UTC) reply
    • @ KrakatoaKatie: apparently yes, at least for the most recent round of edit-warring on Kubrat. I haven't followed the issue on Utigur, but the same IP addresses are active in both. There is a running battle by IP accounts over a range of early Bulgarian articles for some weeks now. Those I've come across are the usual nationalist POV-fest with disputes over the ethnic identity of the Bulgars (Turkic vs. Slavic) and the titelature of the early Bulgar/Bulgarian rulers. I suspect the Utigur dispute to be a variation thereof. Constantine 22:04, 14 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Temporary pending change protection: Since the page was created, there have been repeated stylistically inconsistent changes (in the form of information being added in a "CV" type format) made by a singular editor. Almost every edit has either been a revert of inappropriately formatted information, or the addition of such material. The editor has been informed of the inconsistent nature of their contributions. Hopefully temp protection will be enough to dissuade the editor in question from future inconsistent/inappropriate additions to the page. Qtbalazs ( talk) 22:11, 18 July 2015 (UTC) reply

It looks like some of the people willing to create the article say that they are administrators. Full protection may work against it if a non-admin is chosen to do it, but if an admin is chosen, we not only have to fully protect, but we also have to block and summarily desysop admins who edit that page according to the given instructions. Superprotection would be the best option here, allowing editing only by Wikimedia Foundation employees. Gparyani ( talk) 20:20, 18 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Louise Bours

Pending changes protection: An otherwise infrequently-edited BLP of a British (and English) politician which has been effectively or actually (depending on your viewpoint) vandalised at least twice since its creation at her election in the year 2014, obviously by the supporters of the political opponents to the political party of which this politician is a member, and to which she belongs ( WP:Tendentious editing), by repeatedly inserting text that claims that she had been born with a two-word Dutch, Belgian, Flemish or East Frisian surname, with the word "van", and registered as such; with a fabricated source from the Guardian and an unreliable secondary source not from a reliable mainstream news site but from a political (left-wing) blog-cum-attack-page. A lot of the editing (including the first insertion of this vandalous false claim, and a lot of outright vandalism) were indeed done by anonymous IPs. I don't know if this article qualifies for protection of this kind, which I am now asking for, and whether such a request would be granted anyway, but it is worth a try anyhow, I suppose! -- Urquhartnite ( talk) 23:38, 20 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Not done because it wouldn't help. Changes are automatically accepted for autoconfirmed users, and semi-protection likewise is ineffective for these editors. Your most recent disruptive editor is autoconfirmed. Interestingly, he hasn't received a single warning for BLP violations or edit warring, and he violated 3RR on July 9.

Indefinite semi-protection: The article had a protection for several months due to consistent vandalism. When it was removed, however, vandalism continued. This problem is now worse because the subject matter recently made it to international headlines and is commented daily in Mexico and Latin America (he escaped from prison a second time). Given the consistent vandalism and the exposure this man has received, I want to petition an indefinite semi-protection. Most, if not all, of the constructive updates on the page have been by registered users, not IPs. ComputerJA ( ) 17:38, 21 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Ingrid Nilsen

Semi-protection: Continuous IP vandalism. I posted a request here to have the page protected a bit ago (perhaps a month or so ago), and the end result was that all edits were subject to review. However, as of recent (the other day), IPs continue to edit the article and add information about an actress named Ingrid Nilson. Ingrid Nilsen (who the Wikipedia article is about) is a YouTube personality (makeup/beauty) and a reality competition judge. She is in no way related to the actress, who shares a similar, but different name. I am requesting semi-protection to the article so IPs can stop adding information on the unrelated actress. Also, perhaps a warning could be posted that any edits about Ingrid Nilson will not be allowed and will result in warnings/punishment? I feel like if the article is only protected for a certain period of time the IPs will just continue their edits after the protection is up. Andise1 ( talk) 19:35, 25 July 2015 (UTC) reply

List of highest-grossing Indian films

Full-protection: There was page and then full protection before over a particular dispute (namely whether to include the film Baahubali: The Beginning in both Tamil and Telugu. Editors vehemently disagree with that and it got protected. During the protection there were almost a dozen requests (see the hidden section here) all fighting about getting the amount of that same film's gross updated (and further fighting on the languages. Although there is now an RFC with a clear consensus, editors are again warring to remove it with summaries like this and warring now to rewrite it all in terms of industries not languages to win their argument again that it's not a Tamil film so between the film updates and to the continual edit warring, I think full protection is needed. Note that I've done enough reversions so I'm staying out of it unless there's a massively clear consensus again in support of the bilingual stuff. - Ricky81682 ( talk) 06:50, 27 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Now the actress is 17, she has appeared in much more since then and I wanted to create a wikipedia page, however, it already existed and was a redirect page.

I can't tell if you're claiming that you are the owner of the website or if you are the owner of the Wikipedia article about the website. Regardless, the page was protected due to persistent vandalism and in the absence of any argument as to why it would be better to unprotect it, I think it should stand. It expires in a couple of days anyway. -- Ed ( Edgar181) 10:42, 28 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Ann Rule

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Until we have reliable, secondary sources agreeing on the article subject's year of birth, the article has both possible birth years.

Please consider semi-protecting the article for a few days (and returning the article to where it was before the edit warring - including the embedded notes regarding the birth year) until the fan-fervor over the article subject's death dies down. Thank you,. -- WV 04:47, 28 July 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Note: Another editor has returned the article to where it should be until reliable sources can agree (or a better source becomes available) to confirm the birth year and age at death. Still would like the page semi-protected temporarily. -- WV 05:13, 28 July 2015 (UTC) reply

Fully protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This is a content dispute so I have protected it accordingly however I have reverted to the most BLP compliant and consensus version (with both dates).

List of football clubs in England by competitive honours won

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Small scale vandals consistently attack this page, removing honours from rival clubs mostly as the recent example of someone removing Arsenal's League Cup wins. I have been watching this page for a few years and while the volume of vandalism is medium it becomes very hard to verify each time the correct honours total for each club. Semi-protection would make the lives of editors much easier, only 3-4 edits each year are required really to add new honours so IP contributions would be limited in any case.

There is, in fact, no need for page protection that excludes other editors from editing this page. The two editors at issue here, myself and DrFleischman, should be mutually blocked before protection of the page is considered. The innocents should not have their editing rights restricted.
All that in fact has to happen here is for DrFleischman to engage on the Talk page and respond to those editors to whom he continues to not respond to. The matter was already discussed on the BLP noticeboard and a further three editors expressed skepticism that there is a BLP violation with no editors agreeing that there is a BLP violation. We could agree to take this to the RS noticeboard but DrFleischman is evidently not keen on doing so. I endeavoured to raise the matter on the edit warring admin forum and Doc asked that the matter not be considered there.-- Brian Dell ( talk) 07:39, 29 July 2015 (UTC) reply
Was [70] the RSN discussion you meant? It's been removed. -- Ricky81682 ( talk) 10:16, 29 July 2015 (UTC) reply
Ricky81682, I started that RSN discussion and then quickly changed my mind and removed it as I decided it was unlikely to yield a consensus anytime soon. If you think RSN is the way to go then I'll re-post it. In the meantime, mutual blocks are totally inappropriate as Brian and I have a good faith dispute over whether there is consensus at Talk:Edward Snowden#Sunday Times story, a BLP issue. I am merely enforcing BLP in good faith. Full prot is appropriate due to continued edit warring while this issue remains unresolved. There has been very little editing activity aside from Brian and me, so the collateral damage is minimal. -- Dr. Fleischman ( talk) 16:46, 29 July 2015 (UTC) reply
