Requests for page protection | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
This page is for requesting that a page, file or template be protected. Please read up on the protection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism to high-risk templates; semi-protection and pending changes are usually used only to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars. Extended confirmed protection is used where semi-protection has proved insufficient (see the rough guide to extended confirmed protection) After a page has been protected, the protection is listed in the page history and logs with a short description indicating why it was protected, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. Further discussion should take place on the Talk page of the article. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins do not revert to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism. Note: Editors should not consider requesting page protection as a method for continuing an argument from elsewhere nor as a venue for starting a new discussion regarding article content. If a request contains excessive argument, appears to be intended to resolve a content dispute, includes personal attacks or uncivil comments, or has any other unrelated discussion, it will be removed from this page and no action will be taken.

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – per WP:GS/CASTE. Disruptive caste POV pushing and edit warring by a new user with possible COI. - SUN EYE 1 04:47, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
Television in Albania
Reason: Various IPs are cumulatively turning this page into nonsense. Nick Levine (talk) 08:00, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Columbia University
Reason: Unregistered editors are engaged in a slow burning edit war; this has a been a problem for a long time with little progress made in Talk but continued edit wars and sniping via edit summaries. A lengthy semi-protection would be very helpful. ElKevbo (talk) 20:47, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Ava Max discography
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – The same protection is needed for the biography Ava Max. The problem is block evasion by User:Dealer07, using Greek IPs including Special:Contributions/46.176.114.181 blocked a few minutes ago. If the articles are not protected, the /19 range should be blocked. Binksternet (talk) 07:00, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism by IP and account, seems to be the same user. Warnings aren't helping. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 10:56, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- Perhaps blocking the user is better, they're now doing vandalism on another article [2]. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 11:15, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

Reason: Please protected this Article because Any one edit unverified. ᱫᱚᱞᱚᱱ ᱯᱨᱳᱵᱟᱥ (talk) 12:36, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

Mitski
Reason: Unsourced content and vandalism. Mitchell1935 (talk) 13:06, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 13:37, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
Katzenberger Trial
Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – User:AlsoWukai keeps edit warring to keep their edit as the current version, in which “but” is used to start two sentences, rather than “however” (which is more generally used on Wikipedia). Despite myself and two other editors undoing it, AlsoWukai keeps reverting the article back to the version they introduced several months ago, also ignoring the Wikilink I added. I therefore think it best to protect this article, albeit temporarily. AlsoWukai has been warned about their edit warring on several occasions before. I have left a message on their user talk page about this. I kindly request that the article be protected please. TrottieTrue (talk) 13:06, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
