Request to Protect the Marc Márquez Article
The article on Marc Márquez on English Wikipedia has become a frequent target of vandalism and unverified edits. In recent weeks, there have been repeated incidents of anonymous users adding false information, offensive content, and unsourced claims. This trend negatively affects the quality and reliability of the article.
I propose a temporary semi-protection of the page to allow edits only by registered and experienced users. This measure would help stabilize the content and protect the page from further damage.
Thank you for considering this request.

- Declined The article was just nominated for deletion. I am thus a little more hesitant to protect it or take other measures, as that limits the ability to make edits that might result in the article being kept. And if those edits aren't made and the article gets deleted, then we don't have a problem. Daniel Case (talk) 20:38, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – WP:CT/SA, military related incident in Pakistan. Sophisticatedevening(talk) 16:21, 30 September 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. First, there hasn't been any disruption; second, the "I" in IMH stands for "India" not "Pakistan" (if you think the CTOPS designation should apply to all military history in South Asia, then ask ArbCom to amend it). And third, SA does not have the exemption from NOPREEMPT that we have applied to similar incidents under PIA. Daniel Case (talk) 20:52, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

Reason: I think the protection level of this page needs to be re-evaluated. I have page mover permission and am thus able to facilitate moves that the bots cannot (such as those for categories populated by a template). So I can perform a move requested on this page, but I cannot update the page to reflect that the move has been performed. To quote the page itself, Please help keep this page clean! Listings that have already been dealt with need to be removed quickly.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Continuation of persistent vandalism from IPs who seek to restore a particular version of the page.

Temporary semi-protection: This is a ongoing high topic event that is in high political discourse and is very likely to see vandalism from IP and New Users.

Reason: The album is due to be released on 3rd October. Temporary semi-protection (maybe 3 to 7 days) would be vital in maintaining the stability of the page and avoiding unnecessary edit wars/vandalism. A good reference point for why this is necessary is the state of the article when the page was first announced, as well as whenever a major announcement regarding the same has been made since.

- User(s) blocked. Lectonar (talk) 10:41, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
Unprotection: This page was indefinitely semi-protected in June 2009 as the result of continuous unsourced fancruft/speculation regarding the then-upcoming series finale being added to the page. Now that close to 16 years have pass since Big Picture Show premiered, I believe continued protection is unnecessary, per WP:UNPROTPOL.
NOTE: Protection was originally applied by Nlu in 2009. In 2012, Dabomb87 temporarily reserved page-move privileges exclusively to administrators in compliance with WP:TFA policies. As of 2025, both admins seem to be inactive. Giovanni Potage (talk) 08:00, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
- Not unprotected – Looking at the edit history for the last few months, there have been one edit by a sock of a banned user and two cases where bona fide editors were lured into proxying for a blocked user. Favonian (talk) 08:43, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
- I just checked the page's edit history, and the instance of unknowing WP:PROXYING was an isolated incident that was unceremoniously resolved. And the edit from a banned sockpuppet was also a lone incident from several months prior. I believe two isolated incidents aren't enough to warrant continued protection, but I understand your reasoning. As a comprise, are you more comfortable with a temporary WP:PCPP trial instead?

- Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Dr vulpes (Talk) 14:57, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
Reason: WP:UNPROTPOL. Page was indefinitely semi-protected by Ronhjones in 2014 due to a minor bout of vandalism from one IP editor. I believe protection was never necessary and an instance of jumping the ship when a week/fortnite-long protection was more appropriate. Not to mention, if any administrator were to take my request, the risk of continued vandalism is likely very low as this page does not get much traffic and it's subject is not of a contentious subject matter. Giovanni Potage (talk) 08:39, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
- Pending-changes protected, which I think didn't exist at the time. I am uncomfortable unprotecting it because the page views aren't insignificant and have been trending mostly up over the past couple of years. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 19:11, 1 October 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite template protection: High-risk template – This module has a very small number of transclusions (just over 300), but because of how it is used (on Module talk pages) changes to this module could have disastrous consequences.

- My personal opinion is that this isn't high enough risk to warrant protection, but protecting it will in no means
Reason: There's a controversy involving the subject and an anonymous vandal is entering editorial opinions that constantly need to be reverted. Perhaps a semi-protection for a short period of time might suffice to discourage the vandal? MauriceYMichaud (talk) 16:34, 1 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: User keeps trying to add a random birth year, no notable source other then a random non wikipedia wiki, that also isn't sourced.

Reason: User keeps trying to add a random birth year, no notable source other then a random non wikipedia wiki, that also isn't sourced.

Reason: Requested change: Reduce protection to a lower level (or remove entirely) Rationale: The page has remained stable and there has been little to no disruptive editing or vandalism for a significant period. Recent edits have been constructive and aimed at improving content quality. Because the article concerns a major community, lowering the protection would allow wider participation from good-faith editors, which would benefit article development.

Reason: List was recently updated so that a source is needed to verify the square footage of each house on the list. The same user has changed the square footage of the houses at the top of the lists multiple times without providing sources. I believe it detracts from the list to have entries that are unsourced. I have asked the user to stop but this has happened 4 times now. Gweeble (talk) 12:51, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:27, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
- Hello, would you be willing to provide some additional guidance? This is my first time making such a request and I would like some information about what the rules are. Following this decision, the user made the same reversion and stated in the edit "Again, Lynnewood Hall is most definitely 109,848sq ft. Whitemarsh Hall was roughly 20,000sq ft larger. I will keep changing this because it is the truth, thank you." They again declined to provide a source for the updated numbers. I have no issue with the list being changed if a newer or better source is provided, but this user has declined to do this 4 times now. I have posted on the talk page for both the article and the user and they did not reply, instead making the same edit with no sourcing. In the absence of a response from the user, or an update from them which does include sources, it seems likely that the back and fort h will continue, and that is what this user is suggesting they will do. The only alternative is for me to stop reverting their edits and leave the 3 of the top 4 entries on the list as the only unsourced entries on the whole list.
- This user's only contributions are to the list and the article for one of the houses on it and they seem to be taking the square footage of the house personally - I would note that both of the houses they are "upgrading" are/were nearby each other in the same metro area, which might explain why one person would feel a connection to both.
- I want to again clarify that my issue is not with the content, it is with the lack of sourcing behind the content. If they make the exact same edits they have been making, but add sources, I would stop reverting the changes. The list is a list of houses ranked by square footage, and the other 102 houses on the list all have sources for their square footage. If houses are added without sources for their square footage, then it just becomes a list of the largest houses in the personal opinion of one particular wikipedia user. I believe that the quality of the overall list has been tremendously improved by strict adherence to sources for the square footage of each entry, and allowing entries based on conjecture, especially the top ranked entries, detracts from the quality significantly.
- I am open to any suggestions for alternate ways of stopping the back and forth, but this user has refused to engage, and insisted in plain text that they intend to keep doing it. Gweeble (talk) 22:57, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
- The link in my decline message above gives you the dispute resolution page, which outlines the various methods we provide for resolving this issue.

- It's sort of explained in the note at the bottom of the talk. I think the intent was to avoid any type of goading of Hidden Tempo while their talk page/UTRS ban was in place. Given the many years that have passed since the talk page protection, it's probably fine to lower it. As Floq is currently only dipping their toe into the Wikipedia pool from time to time these days, a quick response may not be forthcoming. -- Ponyobons mots 20:04, 1 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Anachronist:, feel free to do whatever you want. I doubt protection is needed, although I also doubt there's any benefit to worrying about the protection of a long-dead talk page of a long-banned editor who has not had talk page access for 8 years. I'd venture a guess that, even now, anyone who actually wants to post to that talk page is probably up to no good... but whatever. Floquenbeam (talk) 18:49, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Preemptive request for EPC restrictions per ArbCom policy surrounding the Israel-Palestine conflict Alexandraaaacs1989 (talk) 20:27, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
Reason: She is protected given (1) Arab-israel conflict and (2) BLP. But there are a number of pages that do not have protection, who meet both of these categories and have well-documented histories of vandalism including Laura Loomer, Candace Owens, Ryan Grim, Zehava Galon, etc.
Given that she is not an active politician nor is she even involved in the conflict, I think the fact that she has made political commentary on the conflict should not qualify her page as having the label for the Arab-Israel conflict. It is too broadly applied and should be kept only for those directly involved in foreign affairs, press within the countries in the conflict, and government actors. This affiliation is too blanket. If she gets the protection, then every journalist who writes about the conflict should also have the protection. Abs145 (talk) 19:07, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined First off, you're supposed to communicate with the protecting admin before making this request, and you have not done so.

Unprotection: This page was indefinitely semi-protected all the way back in December 2013 (log). The admin that placed the indef semi-protection didn't even try varying periods of temporary protection before jumping straight to indef. The year is now 2025, the Airbus A380 is no longer sold new or even in production anymore, and so it is extremely unlikely at this point that this page will receive a high volume of edits like it did back in 2013, anymore. Hence, I'm requesting unprotection. I'm posting the request here at RPP/D because the protecting administrator has been inactive since December 2024. — AP 499D25 (talk) 11:34, 4 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: The protection is falsely placed.

+1 Reason: The user called "Per exemplum" has been edit warring on the Martha Argerich page over the past few months. He has been constantly changing the stable version (which had been going on for years) and adding false claims such as Martha having a wide repertoire (which is completely wrong as she is known the play a relatively small repertoire as she is extremely selective).
User "per exemplum" even reverted the edits of an esteemed writer of wikipedia who has been active on the Martha Argerich page for many years: Martinevans123
Unfortunately, he reverted all of our changes and got his own version protected. I request that the protection is lifted with a reversion back to the version: 17:37, 27 September 2025 Martinevans123

Reason: This page's protection is a violation of WP:PREEMPTIVE. The initial request for protection didn't give any specific examples of vandalism, only making vague references to "instability" in the article's history. Furthermore, the request was specifically for a short duration of protection ("maybe 3 to 7 days"). The admin then proceeded to protect the article for two months, and failed to respond to a comment questioning the decision https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=next&oldid=1314426735&diffonly=1 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:DCC4:533A:DF38:6174 (talk) 09:15, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- Considering the comment was on the now-completed prot request and not their user talk page it's little wonder they missed it. Two months also seems appropriate, looking at the protection log; the article had literally just come off a one-month long prot, and that was after CRASHlock had been applied weeks before and was (and still is) active throughout this whole period. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 15:17, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- "Two months also seems appropriate, looking at the protection log; the article had literally just come off a one-month long prot"
- This sentence doesn't make sense. Two months is appropriate for an unjustified protection because the article was previously protected? I don't know what you're trying to convey, but taking your words literally here, you're suggesting that a page being protected once means it should be protected forever.
- "and that was after CRASHlock had been applied weeks before and was (and still is) active throughout this whole period"
- I don't know what CRASHlock is. Going to the page that you made it a hyperlink to (Wikipedia:Pending changes) and Control-F searching "CRASHlock" brought me a total of 0 results 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:DCC4:533A:DF38:6174 (talk) 15:43, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

- No, it's reactive to vandalism that occurred before the protection. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:52, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- The vandalism that you neither you right now nor the requester of the protection have been able to provide any examples of, let alone substantive examples. I've seen a page be given multiple-month protection for "vandalism" because an editor was annoyed over slightly misformatted citations - someone saying that there's "persistent vandalism" doesn't make it so 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:DCC4:533A:DF38:6174 (talk) 15:57, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- We're not playing this game. If you have a more substantial reason to unprotect than accusing both the protecting and responding administrator of being incompetent gits, then you have failed to provide it. As I noted, the article had been fresh off a month-long protection, with CRASHlock active, and it was still deemed necessary to protect it a week after it came off prot as far as the protecting admin was concerned. Two months would make sense in most circumstances; usually targets that require multiple rounds of protection go through escalating periods of it (1mo -> 2mo in this case), and the presence of indefinite CRASHlock since before the first semi-protection would very much be an aggravating factor (as high volumes of editing - as might happen around a Taylor Swift release - contraindicate it). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:51, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- This is an extremely rude reply without any substance. I'm not even going to address your throwing around of derogatory terms.
- "As I noted, the article had been fresh off a month-long protection, with CRASHlock active"
- Once again, you have said "CRASHlock" and made it a hyperlink to an ENTIRE article which returns 0 results when I control-F search for CRASHlock. I'm still waiting for a single example of vandalism - instead, I've been met with jargon, links to entire articles instead of specific policies, and rudeness.
- I would also like to note that Wiktionary notates "contraindicate" as medical jargon. 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:DCC4:533A:DF38:6174 (talk) 17:03, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

- This is an extremely rude reply without any substance. I'm not even going to address your throwing around of derogatory terms.
- We're not playing this game. If you have a more substantial reason to unprotect than accusing both the protecting and responding administrator of being incompetent gits, then you have failed to provide it. As I noted, the article had been fresh off a month-long protection, with CRASHlock active, and it was still deemed necessary to protect it a week after it came off prot as far as the protecting admin was concerned. Two months would make sense in most circumstances; usually targets that require multiple rounds of protection go through escalating periods of it (1mo -> 2mo in this case), and the presence of indefinite CRASHlock since before the first semi-protection would very much be an aggravating factor (as high volumes of editing - as might happen around a Taylor Swift release - contraindicate it). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 16:51, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- The vandalism that you neither you right now nor the requester of the protection have been able to provide any examples of, let alone substantive examples. I've seen a page be given multiple-month protection for "vandalism" because an editor was annoyed over slightly misformatted citations - someone saying that there's "persistent vandalism" doesn't make it so 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:DCC4:533A:DF38:6174 (talk) 15:57, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Severe and repeated WP:BLP and WP:NPOV violations in the lede and body, including defamatory/partisan additions and misuse of unreliable sources.
Issues are documented in detail on the article’s Talk page: Talk:National Iranian American Council#Request for review: Intro (lede) section violates Wikipedia content standards (neutrality, sourcing, BLP).
I am a staff member at NIAC and have disclosed this connection per WP:COI; I am not editing the article directly but am requesting administrative review and temporary FULL PROTECTION to halt further BLP violations while uninvolved editors rewrite for compliance with WP:LEAD, WP:RS, WP:NPOV, and WP:BLP. Shawrami (talk) 23:09, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined. @Shawrami, 1. There is currently no disruption to the article. We cannot preemptively apply locks on the article. 2. I don't see any BLP violations on the lead. BLP is a policy meant for living persons generally, not organisations. It is in the name itself, see WP:BLP. 3. Given the COI declaration above, please make use of Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard to request changes on the talk page. The current message you placed there is pure AI slop which will be summarily dismissed by any reviewers. – robertsky (talk) 23:27, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response. I just submitted a request via the Edit Request Wizard.
- Correct me if I'm wrong, but the BLP policy applies to "information about living persons to any Wikipedia page", moreover it also states that “This policy applies to all living persons, including those who are not the subject of the article, if they are mentioned in the article or its associated pages. It also applies to living persons who are indirectly implied by, or connected to, material in the article.”
- In regard to the BLP violation, the lead section mentions 2 living people associated with the organization, Trita Parsi and Jamal Abdi. "The organization's first president was Trita Parsi who also its cofounder. Its president is now Jamal Abdi."
- It's preceded by this defamatory, biased and not neutral intro statement "The National Iranian American Council (NIAC; Persian: شورای ملی ایرانیان آمریکا) is a lobbying group widely viewed as the de facto "Iran Lobby" in Washington, D.C. due to its history of lobbying for stances on behalf of, and aligned with, the Islamic Republic of Iran."
- As such, the current opening violates BLP because it directly assets that these living individuals to a contentious, unverified illegal allegation, which is a serious and reputationally harmful claim. Shawrami (talk) 02:21, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Shawrami We tend to separate the organisation from the person. Saying that NAIC is a lobbying group for the Iranian state does not mean the person is necessary one. Nowhere in the text says that the person is pro-Iranian state person. For further discussions, take it to the article talk page as this venue deals with page protection only and this thread will be archived shortly as such. – robertsky (talk) 03:32, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: I would like to request a decrease in protection for this title because it is preventing me from moving a draft with the same name (Draft:Nabi Hasan) to mainspace. The page was protected from creation in 2017 due to repeated recreation, but the circumstances leading to that protection are no longer applicable.
Since then, there has been no further vandalism or disruptive editing related to this topic.
Unfortunately, the administrator who originally applied the protection has passed away, and thus cannot be contacted for review. Given that the situation has changed and there is no current reason to maintain creation protection, I respectfully request that it be lifted so the draft can be moved to the title.
Thank you for your time and consideration. ❯❯❯ Raydann(Talk) 20:28, 4 October 2025 (UTC)
- Raydann, given the indefinite protection, I'd like to see the draft run through WP:AFC. If approved, we'd unprotect. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:29, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- Muboshgu, no problem! I'll submit the article for an AfC review. However, as I understand as a former AfC reviewer, shouldn't the article title be unprotected beforehand so that the reviewer is able to approve/move it to mainspace? Nevertheless, if the page is unprotected, I won't move it myself but leave it for AfC approval. Thank you. ❯❯❯ Raydann(Talk) 15:56, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
- No. It was protected for a reason. And years later, with a COI submission, that reason still exists. Unprotecting it would let unapproved drafts be moved to mainspace. We'll unprotect if a reviewer says it's approved. Content-wise, it isn't much different from the deleted version, which was unsourced. Just glancing at the high proportion of non-independent sources in that draft, I'd say it's borderline. Best to wait. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 17:41, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

- Even if I'm an experienced editor, if I want to create an article on a topic that has been deleted, or if I'm experienced but have a COI, I'd draft it and submit it for review to get a second set of eyes on it rather than move it myself. That's how you're using it, and it gratifies me to see that.
- To me, that's the best purpose for the AFC process, sort of a peer review prior to publication, not the monstrosity it's become as a dumping ground for submissions from new editors with zero experience who are here for no other reason than publicity, rather than adding truly notable topics to the encyclopedia. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 21:51, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: IP user keeps changing opening sentence from present tense to past tense, as in "The DC Animated Universe WAS a shared fictional universe" instead of "IS a shared fictional universe", ignoring a hidden note stating that the subject should be referred to in present tense. Reverted edit 3 times as of now, and IP's reasoning to keeping the change is because the franchise ended, even though MOS:TVNOW and MOS:FILMLEAD state that unless it is lost media, it should still be referred to in present tense.

Reason: IP editor and new accounts right back to adding fluff and nonsense text that has been removed countless times at this point. Appears to be a single minded vandal and the same one vandalizing the account for months and just hopping from IPs and accounts.

Reason: The semi-protection of the main target article, Marvel Cinematic Universe, was erroneously transferred over to this redirect with this move back in February 2015 that was reverted. The protection is only needed for the target article and not the redirect, which has received little-to-no attention in the decade since, and no other similar moves have been attempted since. This is only a request to lift the protection from the redirect, as it is unnecessary, not the target article. — Trailblazer101🔥 (discuss · contribs) 05:04, 8 October 2025 (UTC)
- I should also note that the original admin who protected the target article back in June 2010 was J Greb, but they have been inactive since 2017. The user who moved the protection permissions is also indefinitely blocked. — Trailblazer101🔥 (discuss · contribs) 05:07, 8 October 2025 (UTC)

That one month semi-protection was applied after three instances of IP vandalism within one day of initial week-long semi-protection expiring on 29AUG2025. IP editors generally have not been a source of constructive editing on this article. Semi-protection for three months now seems appropriate, given that this is a high-profile new term with primary use in Internet memes. ViridianPenguin🐧 (💬) 16:13, 8 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Since the article was unprotected in July, it has experienced a slow but steady stream of disruptive edits from IP editors. Nearly the entirety of the article's recent edit history solely consists of unhelpful edits from IPs which get immediately reverted. It's severe enough that it arguably halts the article's growth. For this reason, I request the former protection — which lasted 16 years — to be restored. If anyone reading this thinks semi-protection is overkill, WP:PCPP is right over the corner.

I couldn't find where to add a discussion, but I want to dispute the page title. The war page on Wikipedia states that: "A ceasefire is distinct from an armistice in that the armistice is a formal end to a war whereas a ceasefire may be a temporary stoppage." The last war "ended" with a ceasefire, but according to the previous sentence, it would be logical to say that war never ended and on October 7, the war only escalated rather than was started again.
I believe this to be important because calling this a war implies, to a certain extent, that the current escalation started out with an unprovoked attack on October 7, 2023 and it was all the fault of Hamas. It forgoes in its initial assumptions that this conflict is more complex than that and there has not been a time without violent provocations from either side. This implication is also used explicitly as a form of propaganda by the Israeli government to validate the ongoing genocide. Following such political propaganda in the page title takes away from the objectivity I expect from Wikipedia.
As such, I believe this issue is worth an explicit discussion. 145.97.192.240 (talk) 13:47, 8 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Since at least May 2025, editor(s) operating from a range of overlapping IPs (at least one of whom has stated they are a person named in an ongoing court dispute), have been making changes to the Avondale House article. Many of these changes are soapboxy additions, almost all treat Wikipedia and the article as a battleground and otherwise seem intended to score points for causes outside the project. While multiple editors have reverted these changes for policy-based reasons (eg: [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]) the editor(s) involved keep warring to restore/revert content that, seemingly, they just don't like. Or, at least, seemingly can't explain. While it is unclear what the editor(s) reasons are, it doesn't really matter, as they are clearly not here to improve the project. Given that this has been ongoing for months, user talk and article talk page prompts have gone unanswered, and the edits applied from multiple/varying IPs, some form of page-protection seems in order...

Reason: Temporary semi-protection: Despite the article being a stub and with his recent firing from Matlock breaking this afternoon, and to be on the safe side, I think this article needs to be protected until at least after the season premiere for the series or whenever an announcement is made about how his character will be written off.

This is not an improvement of the page. Deleted additions were accurate, there was nothing inaccurate, wrong, false, untrue, ambiguous or controversial about the actual material. The counter editor had issues with the references, some of the format and I am guessing too much information (which was classifed as being unencyclopedic). So the counter editor not only wnent back to eliminating the new edits, the original article from 2010, was reduce to a token of its original. Even more puzzling, all references that pre-dated my additions and were not mine to begin with, were also deleted. The new stub notes this....well it seems that it is the work of the counter editor and a reviewer in Brazil to make it even worse. its interesting to note that there is now a question about a reference for John Moffet, when there was one, from the USOPA, the official national organization.....guess that was deemed to be trivial fluff as well (a term frequently employed by the counter editor). Bottom line, or so it seems: Less is more, way less is even better, and next to nothing is best of all, especially if unattributed....then lets lock down the site so no corrections can be done. I will say that my experience has confirmed everything that basically everyone whom I personally know told me about Wikipedia, which was "don't bother." Certainly tht is the path of least resistance. 2600:8802:1700:3160:18A2:429A:C9B:7969 (talk) 23:25, 4 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Ongoing edit war between if visual studio code is a source-code editor, or an intergrated development environment. Since Microsoft itself has stated “Microsoft Visual Studio Code is a free, powerful, lightweight code editor for Windows, macOS and Linux.” in the link; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/shows/visual-studio-code/, and the majority of Wikipedia users supporting the notion that it’s a source code editor against one user who’s against the notion, I request this page have it’s page protection increased so visual studio code can have a better review of what it actually is.

Reason: Hello, I am a UIC PR officer in the PR department. I’d like to request protection for this article due to repeated vandalism, out-dated & false and information that leads to inaccurate current status of the college. While making changes to some objective information, I have noticed that several anonymous users have added unsourced or misleading information multiple times over the last few years. No university or college pages should contain such false and inaccurate information. Here is an example diff showing the vandalism:

Reason: Requesting long term semi-protection for this article.

There's a WP:AN/I thread about this issue. One of the recent IPs has been blocked [26] but a new IP is conducting the same edit [27] and continuing the same AI slop on the talk page.

Reason: Disruptive editing – edit warring over the use of "are" and "is", when the article is written in Canadian English. HorrorLover555 (talk) 12:02, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
- Comment: I do see that back-and-forth reverts are occurring over the use of "are" vs "is" as described above, but I don't think that the reverts are at a high enough level of disruption to warrant applying full protection to the article - especially given the recent high volume of editing by users of all levels and types (anonymous user, new account, confirmed account, extended-confirmed account). I'm leaving this request open for other admins to review and add their input and thoughts... ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 13:00, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. And this dispute doesn’t affect page readers, as both versions are fine, though one or the other is probably more correct for the English variant involved . — rsjaffe 🗣️ 16:06, 10 October 2025 (UTC)
Reason: In the past 48 hours, the article has been vandalized by different IPs six times, apparently based on social-media… speculations (see also Talk:Robert J. O'Neill#Fox News contributor). — Fourthords | =Λ= | 16:54, 10 October 2025 (UTC)

I declined this as an AIV report, gave feedback to Cassiopeia on User talk:Truthseeker101343, Mfield also gave feedback on User talk:Cassiopeia, and after all of that, instead of starting a talk page discussion as suggested, Cassiopeia reverted the edit again and this request was filed to put the other editors at a disadvantage in what is at least a content dispute if not a MOS violation. And the other editors' edits are absolutely not vandalism in any way, shape, or form. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 05:48, 12 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Daniel Quinlan and Daniel Case: Hi Daniel Quilan, I have replied on User talk:Truthseeker101343 and had informed you that the info is sourced which you can find the info at the bottom of the infobox or you can see "HERE", which is well-sourced. Editors removed it because they dont like it as it might not be pleasing to them but it is sourced as per Wikikpedia verification guidelines. Cassiopeia talk 05:57, 12 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Repeated unwarranted edits by IP user 78.188.178.43. If, instead, the IP itself is blocked, I'm not convinced that the same person won't reappear under a different IP (or as a "2025-something" unregistered user). Tonymec (talk) 01:55, 12 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. If they aren't warned that what they likely believe are good-faith improvements are, in fact, disruptive (and this explained exactly why, in addition), I'm sure they will definitely keep coming back. I will make the first warning. Daniel Case (talk) 04:49, 12 October 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite template protection: High-risk template – This template has very few actual transclusions because it is designed to be subst. It is widely used and has the potential to wreak real havoc if it were vandalized. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 06:55, 12 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Increase protection to the WP:ECP level as after IPs now even newly registered accounts are making disruptive edits, both originally researched and based on tabloid misinformation, about his early life (false claim that his mother is of Serbian ethnic identity/origin, supposedly the activity of his maternal uncle in the Serbian army, which supposedly alienated Luka from his maternal Serbian family although there's no reliably sourced information about his genealogical connections and so on). Such edits are done, as the reasons are published in the Serbian tabloid media, with chauvinistic intentions to harm the image and biography of Luka Modrić. He is a very notable football player and personality. The article is well edited, seeking a higher quality of attention and editing anyway. The increase of protection won't harm the editing of the article as it is constantly edited by long-term users; meanwhile, IPs' input mainly edits the statistics of the number of games played (which is already also done by long-term users).

- Not unprotected but we can revisit this at a later date. The edit requests that have been shunted to this page have been generally reasonable and thoughtful, even if sometimes malformed. I see no reason why non-EC editors shouldn't add constructive discussion to the talk page, so I'd be willing to try semiprotection later.

Note that my account do not allow any email to be sent directly, so this constant harassment only occurs in Wikimedia wikis (occuring since August 1st, but there had been previous discussions, where I was tricked using false statements, until an admin informed me that this was a LTA; now I just get insults, threats, and lot of non-sense; Wikinger uses a lot of sockppets accounts, get access again suing open various proxies hosted worldwide, including harnessing the abused resources of several large CDNs like CloudFlare, and many free VPNs). If other people have to speak about me anywhere else, they can use the community portals of each wiki, other people can leave some notification on my home FR.WP wiki, or on Commons, or on MetaWiki where I have my global user page hosted showing a statement about Wikinger's abuses via my talk pages on multiple wikis, or sometimes by abusive edits in other pages that I last edited or created (sometimes very old since 2005). Thanks. However, Wikinger is also attacking other users, so it may be useful to monitor my talk page to see how many new sockpuppets (or temporary IP) he uses against me (or against others), including the damages he performs on many general articles. verdy_p (talk) 15:01, 15 October 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Freedoxm (talk · contribs) 04:14, 15 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Freedoxm: I don't consider an article "strictly within the Arab-Israeli conflict topic area" for WP:PIA's ECP by default just because it is a region or place in Israel or Palestine. Do you have evidence of disruption on these articles? (Please be more specific than just "Arbitration enforcement" in protection requests.) ~ Jenson (SilverLocust 💬) 04:36, 15 October 2025 (UTC)
- Extended confirmed protected indefinitely. There has been recent disruption along exactly the lines the topic area is drawn on (And I would add that since Israel includes the Golan Heights in this administrative subdivision, per the article, it is a primary topic within PIA and thus should be ECPed regardless of disruption). Just because a filer here didn't go into specifics does not mean you can't look at the article history yourself and see whether the request was justified. Will be autologged at CTOPS.

- Extended confirmed protected for a period of one month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. - Good lord, what is happening in there? Protection done, but a note to @Dhruv edits: - I have no doubt that you were doing your best to try and keep things organized in there with the utter flood of edits going on, but I'm also pretty sure you are wildly past WP:3RR.
An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page—whether involving the same or different material—within a 24-hour period. A series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a single revert.
Given the absolute mess there it's hard to say how much was "undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions" and how much was your own being added from scratch, and as mentioned I'm sure it was all in good faith, so I won't apply a block, but please remember in the future that there is no carve-out to 3RR for reverting edits that while they are disruptive are not obvious vandalism.

Reason: Persistent disruptive editing – Since July 6, 2023 and sockpuppetry.
The following is an incomplete (but mostly through) list of all the IPs, and sockpuppet accounts they have made by User:Mijakn, who is a sockpuppet of the banner used User:Aminiya
After extensive research, I have made a timeline in reverse chronological order from July 6, 2023 (at the very bottom) to October 17, 2025 of every single account/IP they've used by them to edit war. They specifically make the edit change from "Munmu of Silla" to "Munmu the Great." They also do this on Sinmun of Silla, ROKS Munmu.

Reason: Arbitration enforcement – WP:GS/KURD. Kajmer05 (talk) 16:52, 17 October 2025 (UTC)
Long-term semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. Been protected several times over the past few years; vandalism returned within moments of protection removal, with no prompt. Requesting until 31 December 2027—end of current Formula One contract—but this could be an indef case given the popularity and polarising nature of the subject. MB2437 17:40, 17 October 2025 (UTC)
Indefinite extended protection: Arbitration Enforcement. Due to the South Asia Arbitration enforcement, this page appears to be an exception to the rule. This violates the previously mentioned ArbCom enforcement. Theeverywhereperson (talk here) 16:18, 17 October 2025 (UTC)
- Note: Arbitration enforcement category is WP:CT/SA Theeverywhereperson (talk here) 16:20, 17 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. WP:CT/SASG (the former WP:GSCASTE) allows pre-emptive protection. The WP:CT/IMH subtopic of WP:CT/SA, however, does not explictly allow this. Given IMH is under mandatory ECR, this may be a case where it would be permissible, but as there is no disruption on the article at the moment, will simply update the CT tag on the talk page and add an editnotice instead. - The Bushranger One ping only 01:54, 18 October 2025 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Related to previous requests at Spiritual America[60] and Rhonda Roland Shearer[61]. Ongoing sock/meat puppet farm activity (see SPI[62]). Farm now looks to be trying to take control of a group's meetup page.

Reason: Persistent long-term vandalism, with a pretty serve string of attacks by a sockpuppet to top it off. Given the page's long protection log, and the fact that Pokimane has been one of the most prominent personalities on Twitch for quite a long time, I think it would be best to have no expiration date be set this time around. Giovanni Potage (talk) 06:12, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The article has been unprotected for 2.5 years, so indefinite protection is excessive for now.

Arbitration Enforcement: As per WP:CT/IMH of the broader WP:CT/SA, all articles related to Indian military history, broadly construed, have to be indef extended confirmed page protected. — EarthDude (Talk) 09:31, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- Done Insurgency in Northeast India, Operation Desert Hawk, Indo-Pakistani war of 1971. Other articles were either already protected or protection didn't seem necessary. Isabelle Belato 🏳🌈 11:27, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Isabelle Belato All of the given articles should be indefinitely ECP, and none of them were already ECP when I made the request. They are all under ECR as per WP:CT/IMH. Many articles have also experienced disruptive editing, sock editing, etc., though that is only a prerequisite for protection under WP:CT/SASG and not WP:CT/IMH. IMH has general preemptive EC, similar to ARBPIA (without the 1RR). — EarthDude (Talk) 11:49, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- EarthDude, WP:CT/A-I is the only contentious topic with an ECP by default remedy, which requires administrators to apply ECP to articles strictly within the topic's scope when they are submitted on this noticeboard, regardless of whether there is disruption. For all other contentious topics under ECR, per WP:ROUGHECP, "Administrators may apply indefinite extended confirmed protection at any time to any page covered by ECR at their discretion, whether or not there has been disruptive editing on the page." WP:CT/SASG is subject to a preemptive protection remedy, which functions as encouragement to apply ECP preemptively when needed, but does not require it. WP:CT/IMH is not subject to any special remedies that enhance the baseline ECR remedy; a proposal to place ARBIPA (India, Pakistan and Afghanistan) under the preemptive protection remedy did not pass. — Newslinger talk 12:40, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Newslinger I meant specifically IMH. For SASG, you need a pre-emptive cause for protection by admins, such as the article facing disruptive editing, sock puppetry, and the like. As I understand it, IMH does not have a similar pre-emptive cause. I did not propose placing ARBIPA under ECP, I simply requested a few IMH articles to be placed under ECP. I know the difference between ECR and ECP, but from what I have seen, many articles which fall under ECR are generally also placed under ECP. — EarthDude (Talk) 12:48, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- I think there is a misunderstanding here. The preemptive protection remedy does not add a "pre-emptive cause" requirement for ECP. The remedy actually has the opposite effect, by stating that "Administrators are permitted to preemptively protect articles" in the topic area, even when there is no history of disruption, as long as there is "a reasonable belief that they will be the target of disruption". Because preemptive protection is normally not permitted, the preemptive protection remedy relaxes the requirements needed for protection in the affected topic area (WP:CT/SASG). The arbitrators' comments in the proposed "Preemptive protection ARBIPA" remedy (that did not pass) show the intent of the remedy more clearly, which is the reason I mentioned it. — Newslinger talk 13:29, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Newslinger Oh, that's my bad. I think I might have misinterpreted it then. For clarification then, when a topic is placed under ECR, does it mean that its articles can't be placed under ECP until and unless it has faced disruption or not? So, is this specific page protection request by me not valid? Because, from all I have seen, what generally happens is that when a topic is placed under ECR, its articles are also usually placed under ECP too. — EarthDude (Talk) 13:38, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Protection policy § Contentious topics states that ECP can be applied to any article "When necessary to prevent disruption in designated contentious topic areas", regardless of whether ECR is active. (Of course, articles under ECR are much more likely to satisfy this condition than articles that are not under ECR.) Because of this, the answer to your first question is no (an article under ECR can still be protected with ECP even without prior disruption), and the answer to your second question is no (your protection request is still valid).As I'm sure you're aware, different administrators have different thresholds for processing requests. WP:ROUGHECP § As arbitration enforcement says, "Many administrators will only apply ECP in circumstances where there have been editing disputes involving accounts that fail the 30/500 rule", but there is not a strict rubric for when ECP should be applied. It is not my place to explain Isabelle Belato's reasoning for their protection decision, but because all of the articles they declined to apply ECP for had no disruptive activity in the past month, I believe their decision is reasonable. — Newslinger talk 14:08, 19 October 2025 (UTC)

These socks are edit warring to introduce three different images into the article, so the other question is which one we would get permission for.

Reason: References and citing within this page are not correct, and provide readers with false information. For example the claim that 'A wide consensus of scholarship has concluded that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza' does not provide any references that accurately cite information to sustain the claim of 'dolus specialis' which is mandatory for a truth claim of genocide. It also does not provide references that validate the claim of 'a wide consensus' of scholarship, only that a not insignificant amount of scholars have made the argument that this constitutes a genocide (though again, lacking dolus specialis). Blocking editing means that wikipedia is not providing readers with accurate context and information.
You should certainly provide the evidence that scholars have alleged genocide, however from a legal context this is not sustained.
Even if you don't unlock editing, I would strongly urge wikipedia to at the minimum change this, otherwise you are prioritising ideological perspectives over accuracy of information. 1.145.101.88 (talk) 06:07, 19 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: It seems that a single user is blocking the removal of an what appears to be an inappropriate reference within the 'cultural significance' page, where they cite an obscure book of inconsequential acclaim.
My concerns over the inclusion of this paragraph (already printed on this page) relate to the fact that even if the book were relevant to the point where it was worthy of mention, whoever wrote the paragraph has misunderstood the original text or simply offered their own manufactured interpretation in place of it.
Firstly, the assertion that (paraphrase) there is a 'contemporary political phenomenon which distracts attention away from discriminatory practices' is an unfounded claim which is not supported at all by the text, nor does the author intend to imply that. Hallberstam does not reference any 'phenomenon', and in fact states clearly that his observations are from within the queer community as distinct from the world at large.
i include the relevant extract (page 10 in my book):
"This episode reminds us that sometimes we really cannot see the forest for the trees, the Roman Empire for the cheery centurions, or the site of linguistic domination for the miscellaneous slurs directed at marginal subjects. In queer communities today, while we fight about words like “tranny,” worry about being triggered, and “call each other out” for our supposed micro-crimes of omission/inclusion/slang, we are, like the People’s Front of Judea, trying to fight power by battling over the relations between signifiers and signifieds while leaving the structures of signification itself intact."
Moreover, Hallberstam references his argument with respect the bickering and infighting of the Peoples Front of Judea. Not the centurion giving a lesson in bad latin grammar. In that regard, it doesn't even make sense to have this paragraph here to begin with.
The inclusion of this paragraph falls short of reflecting the accepted standard to which wikipedia articles are expected to conform to. It is factually misleading, and seems to be ideologically motivated rather than an honest interpretation of what the author has actually written.
The page should be unlocked and the offending article removed.

Change the (several) map colour legends to an unbiased pair. Using red (Affiliated with alert, danger, emphasis) for Palestine, and blue (Affiliated with calm, official, neutral) for Israel, creates bias for the reader. Jack-stuart97 (talk) 06:34, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

- I understand, thanks for clarifying. To be clear, my point wasn’t about political neutrality but about visual neutrality — i.e., colour associations that can unconsciously influence readers’ perception.
- My suggestion is purely technical: using a pair of colours that are less semantically loaded (for example, neutral tones or a diverging palette) might reduce that effect.
- I’m aware of the 500/30 restriction and won’t attempt direct edits, but would appreciate if established editors could consider this from a design/legibility perspective rather than a political one. Jack-stuart97 (talk) 07:35, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
Polyanalytic functions are a natural generalization of complex analytic functions. The are well-studied and the field is well-established. I have been active in this field of research for more than a decade and would very much like for there to exist a Wikipedia article that explains the notion of polyanalyticity and it various analogues in different mathematical contexts.
I have created what I believe to be an appropriate article. It is currently in my "sandbox":
I am new to wikipedia. When I try to "move" the article, I get an error message telling me to: "Creation of this page (AdaghighiUU/sandbox) is currently restricted to administrators, page movers, and template editors" and to "Please post a request at the Administrators' noticeboard or open a new edit request."
Question: can You kindly help me to publish ("move") my Wikipedia article called "Polyanalyticity".

Reason: High level of IP vandalism - 5 times in the last 6 months I have had to revert this page - The false data that gets entered is the same every time, so I suspect that even though different IP addresses are doing the vandalising, it's probably the same person, or group of people. This seems to be the only page of all the Triple J Hottest 100 lists is being affected by this level of vandalism. Obviously I keep an eye on all of them to make sure that it stays that way, but for this page, it has been disproportionately vandalised by IP addresses. Effluvium1 (talk) 09:01, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. I have already given them their first warning. You cannot expect users presumed to be unfamiliar with our practices to stop if they have no idea they're doing anything wrong.
When you do warn them enough, if they don't stop and you do report them there, report the range 163.47.120.0/24 (block range · block log (global) · WHOIS (partial)) and suggest a partial block from all those Triple J Hottest 100 articles they've edited, since the other edits from that range are unrelated to that area and those users don't deserve to be sanctioned for this one person's disruption.

- that statements by the party leader or press releases issued by the party are not independent, as required.
- Except they're not. Simple information such as current members numbers are valid under WP:ABOUTSELF. So statements by a mainstream political party of how many members it has is reasonably fair to post only using a party source if done with attribution. Rambling Rambler (talk) 21:50, 19 October 2025 (UTC)
- This fails both point 1 (this is clearly self-serving) and point 2 (it contains information about the Tories) of WP:ABOUTSELF. Phil Bridger (talk) 08:49, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
- It's not "unduly self-serving" however. Announcing their membership numbers is pretty normal for all parties to do. Even using the House of Commons as a source is still using their own self-supplied stats.
- What ABOUTSELF is designed around is preventing articles being dominated by "Joe Bloggs is the world's tallest man, source Joe Bloggs". However a mainstream, established political party we have no reason to doubt on basic information such as membership numbers are an acceptable use of their own announcements even if by attribution. Beside this is besides the point now because people have already sourced it via newspapers reporting on the claims. Rambling Rambler (talk) 11:29, 20 October 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. per WP:GS/KURD Freedoxm (talk · contribs) 23:17, 22 October 2025 (UTC)
- Note: As a technical formality, WP:GS/KURD is not an ArbComm remedy. GS/KURD is a community-passed adjunct to WP:CT/KURD, which is ArbComm-imposed; CT/KURD doesn't explicitly place Kurdish topics under ECR, but GS/KURD does. That said, this may be a formality, as CT/KURD does allow ECP to be imposed on articles within the topic area as a first resort, and GS/KURD simply mandates ECR. The thing is that WP:CT/SA explicitly says that articles within the remit of the former WP:GSCASTE can be preemptively protected, when that topic area is under mandatory, ArbComm-imposed ECR, so I'm not 100% sure this permissible givebn the lack of disruption (article hasn't been edited since May) - will ask at AN. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:31, 22 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Multiple IPs immediately resumed edit warring after the expiration of 3-month semi-protection. This is the second time they've done so as soon as semi-protection expired, so I feel that longer or indefinite semi-protection is needed. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 03:45, 23 October 2025 (UTC)

- Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. Given the revert history in 2025 and the fact that the article is averaging 70K views per month and currently trending upward, it seems there's still a significant interest in the subject, so PCP would likely just increase the workload for regular editors. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 04:36, 24 October 2025 (UTC)
Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Request Extended Confirmed Protection (ECP) for Tharavad caste page, by Contentious topics: Arbitration enforcement (WP:CT/SASG, WP:CT/CASTE). The page has a very long history of being edited by socks, and reverted after they are banned. Taliparamba (talk) 06:43, 23 October 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – The article uses British spelling, but IP editors change "tyre" to "tire" every few days or weeks and I'm frankly tired (tyred?) of having to revert that again and again. Registered editors can learn, but unregistered ones presumably cannot (because they may always be different ones), hence the need for protection. Gawaon (talk) 07:34, 23 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Gawaon Since this is an long-term issue and there also seem to be constructive IP edits, I'd like to avoid semiprotection for prolonged periods. I've added an editnotice to the page, maybe that will help. You can see the editnotice when you edit the page. How about we give it a few weeks and you keep an eye on things to see if it helps?

Very little of the top-level article about a country that is in ongoing conflict with Israel is devoted to that conflict. Articles about specific conflicts with Israel like last spring's airstrikes are ECP'ed indef under PIA. Perhaps an article about Iran's more recent military history might come under PIA as well.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – I created this draft in order to remedy two hijackings at Tariq Amin. The hijackings involved some socking (investigation page). Since drafting, and despite noted deficiencies, it was submitted twice to WP:AFC (I declined both times as unimproved). AFC submission without improvement in this case by a noob and an ip are disruptive and look like a continuation of the trash quality edits promoting this subject.

Restore lost indefinite semi-protection: I request El C's indefinite WP:SEMI protection from 2021 to be restored, which was lost when temporary WP:FULL protection was applied in the wake of the subject's assassination last month. This is a high-profile WP:BLP article of a controversial political figure; the current six-month semi-protection regime will not stem the tide of vandalism/disruption in the long term.

- You're incorrect, the page was given a month-long extended-confirmed protection by ScottishFinnishRadish back in September, which expired little over a week ago. The current protection is a six-month long semi-protection regime imposed by Protection Helper Bot. I am requesting the restoration of El C's indef semi-prot from 2021 (link). Giovanni Potage (talk) 22:06, 25 October 2025 (UTC)

- @Extraordinary Writ: The bot restored the preceding protection which was the
20212025-09-17 protection from Zzuuzz andthat actionthe 2021 indefinite semi-protection was more than 1 year old so I'm not sure whether this is a new protection or a restored protection. Perhaps that doesn't matter. Anyhow, it might be worth considering ECP for a year or longer based on the page history. When the page isn't ECP, most of the edits from non-EC users appear to be disruptive or sockpuppetry (and Protection Helper Bot will eventually restore the current indefinite semi-protection if you decide to go with a non-indefinite ECP). Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:06, 26 October 2025 (UTC)- Sure, Extended confirmed protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I'm guessing the bot didn't see El C's 2021 protection because it was logged under the previous title, Charlie Kirk (activist). Otherwise it would have kicked in when the protection expired on 17 September. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 06:21, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Extraordinary Writ: Thanks! The bot does actually follow page moves. On 2025-09-17, Zzuuzz semi-protected the article with a limited duration so that's the protection it restored. Having the bot restore any previous indefinite protection would be a really bad idea because it would mean restoring a large number of protections that were intentionally reduced in duration. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:50, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Extraordinary Writ: Ah, I missed that Zzuuzz's protection was itself a restoration. I should have waited until I got back home before I started looking at this. I'll look at the logs to try to figure out what happened. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:58, 26 October 2025 (UTC)
- Yeah, I was just curious why the bot didn't reprotect when SFR's first protection expired at 11:50, 15 September 2025, which left the article with no protection at all until Zzuuzz reprotected at 12:38. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 07:04, 26 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: I'm not really sure if this is the right course of action (it was recommended to me that I come here), and I've never requested page protection before so I am not sure what format to give this, but on this page at the top of the infobox is the emblem of the president. I have tried to change it to a more appropriate symbol (currently it is the presidential emblem (see: https://www.koreaherald.com/article/10508961), which you can see used on the website (https://www.president.go.kr/) among other materials). However I am concerned that various IP addresses have been changing it back to this symbol: File:Seal of the President of the Republic of Korea.svg. While the symbol looks official it is not used extensively by the president and it is not the actual seal (that is this: File:Seal of the President of South Korea.svg), and it is only a decorative symbol used in some parts of the presidential building (such as on podiums). I have tried to change the page accordingly, but it keeps getting reverted for erroneous reasons by IP addresses. notadev (talk) 21:37, 25 October 2025 (UTC)
- I should note, the reason that I think protection would be good is so it can actually be discussed on the talk page instead of edit-warring. No one has engaged with my entry on the talk page yet. notadev (talk) 21:43, 25 October 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite template protection: High-risk template – This template is visible every time an editor clicks on the "Submit an edit request" button from MediaWiki:Protectedpagetext. Editintros for template-protected pages are not as visible as other editintros and all editintros are not as visible as editnotices, so a lower protection level might suffice. Still, the same "high visibility" logic as for editnotices should apply to some degree. For comparison Template:Edit semi-protected/editintro and Template:Edit extended-protected/editintro are template-protected, Template:Edit fully-protected/editintro is semi-protected, and Template:Edit interface-protected/editintro is not protected.

- Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. The page is already under extended confirmed protection, which includes move protection. The events today were a single editor who gamed the system to become extended confirmed, and then went on a spree. They're now not just blocked, they're globally locked; unless they start socking to come back for another round, there's no need to up the move protection. If they do, re-report. - The Bushranger One ping only 05:12, 27 October 2025 (UTC)

- Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This has only been protected once before.

Indefinite semi-protection: The subject's connection to Elon Musk and its political nature will most likely lead to significant amounts of disruptive editing. Go D. Usopp (talk) 09:17, 28 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: If anyone publishes lies on Wikipedia, it means all articles on Wikipedia are subject to be lies. There is no genocide in Gaza, there are numerous studies, articles that deny the accusations. It is false propaganda. 178.51.236.127 (talk) 07:18, 28 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Article has history of vandalism by Ip users, sockpuppet accounts and users with new account causing multiple times edit wars. Small level of protection can help to prevent this from happening in the future

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism that starting back in February of this year (diff) that involves most, if not all, of the Reception section being deleted for invalid reasons. Vandalism comes from multiple different IPs and therefore individual blocks would not be sufficient. Requesting indefinite protection as a previous 3-month long protection did not stop the issue. λ NegativeMP1 01:08, 29 October 2025 (UTC)

Reason: WP:TRYUNPROT. Maybe it's time after 12 years of semi protection to determine whether it's still needed. Protecting admin is no longer active. MrCleanAd (talk) 17:55, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
- (Non-administrator comment) Considering that the page has a fair bit of traffic (about 700 views a day) and that there is occasional talk page disruption/vandalism, I support dropping to PC if this is done. Entranced98 (talk) 21:05, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
- Pending-changes protected. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 23:38, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
Unprotection: Protected since July 2011, seemingly as a result of genre warring from an IP hopper. WP:TRYUNPROT may be worthwhile to see if the issue has fizzled out. This page otherwise seems low risk, as it is not high traffic (averaging about 50 views a day over the past month) and there is no talk page disruption that suggests nuisance editing will return.

Reason: Permanent template-protection A very visible template DiamondCat22 (talk) 15:20, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – This template is not used widely enough to be considered a high-risk template. This, while visible, doesn't fit the criteria to require template protection. It's already semi-protected, which is the appropriate protection for its number of transclusions. The Bushranger One ping only 23:25, 28 October 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Full-protection - We have a withdrawn report of subject's death that is causing some serious BLP headaches on the page. Requesting full protection as XC editors are (in good faith) readding these claims. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 18:06, 28 October 2025 (UTC)

- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Looking at the edits since September, I see only one unquestionably probable BLP violation. The others are run-of-the-mill kiddie vandalism, and there isn't enough of it to justify protection at this time, especially as there have been constructive contributions by unregistered editors in this timeframe.

Note: Per MOS:TVCAST, The cast listing should be ordered according to the original broadcast credits

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced information to a BLP. tony 23:05, 29 October 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Requesting temporary semi-protection for Gypsy-Rose Blanchard due to a recent burst of IP and newly registered editors adding unsourced or undue content, reverting sourced material, and reintroducing disputed wording in the lead. The diffs reflect repeated unsourced medical and biographical claims, alternating lead reverts, and multiple IP insertions of undue material. Short-term protection should help stabilize the page while discussion continues on Talk page. Maybe 1-2 weeks time. Recent disruptive edits: Requesting temporary semi-protection for Gypsy-Rose Blanchard due to a burst of IP-added or no-account changes that introduce unsourced/undue material, wording disputes in the lead, and repetitive re-adds after reversion.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – An editor is edit warring in the article by using multiple accounts [81] [82] [83] [84]. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 13:48, 30 October 2025 (UTC)
- This is wrong on multiple levels:
- 1. No edit warring is taking place. An editor has an issue with information that was placed in the "Recorded" parameter of a song infobox; I have not added that information back while a discussion is taking place on the talk page
- 2. The other editor has said, in plain English, that they take no issue with any of the other content on the page, and that they only removed all the other content that they did on a whim without even reading any of it
- 3. Not only am I not using multiple accounts, I'm not using any accounts. I am an IP editor. My IP is dynamic and keeps changing against my will; blame my ISP.
You are removing two entire sourced and informative sections of an article (Legal action, which is about a lawsuit between the two artists on the song over the contractual agreement to record it, and Personnel, which is just a sourced list of the song's credits) which are not being contested by any editor because you mistakenly believed that it is the subject of a talk page discussion. I have explained this to you on your talk page in as plain terms as I could, which you then removed and proceeded to make this deceptive protection request over. 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:684A:D356:201:BED2 (talk) 13:55, 30 October 2025 (UTC)
- First of all, Binksternet has told you that content you added in the article is not supported by the source you added. But you continue to edit war. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 14:23, 30 October 2025 (UTC)
- As I said in the very comment you're replying to here, that content you're talking about has not been added back while the talk page discussion is ongoing. By blanking content that Binksternet is not objecting to, you are removing encyclopedic content without reason. Readers aren't able to read a sourced list of the song's credits because you're removing them. 2A00:23C8:F11A:7801:684A:D356:201:BED2 (talk) 14:28, 30 October 2025 (UTC)

+1 Reason: Full Protection Page is currently undergoing content dispute over the name and content due to the breaking news relating to his titles. A RFC is undergoing regarding changes so I suggest full protection against the current knee-jerk removals. The C of E God Save the King! (talk) 19:24, 30 October 2025 (UTC)
+2 Reason: Major news coverage regarding the removal of Royal titles, incorrect and speedy edits being made despite the changes not coming into effect yet Knowledgework69 (talk) 19:59, 30 October 2025 (UTC)
−1 Reason: The disruption seems to be a smaller proportion of the edits now. There are still some edits about titles and styles by people not realising the topic is under discussion. These are mostly by extended confirmed people, so full protection would be necessary to stop that, as already noted. I think full protection would now be excessive for the level of disruption. I'm not declining it, given the strong views already expressed. But I wanted to express my contrary view. If another admin sees this and agrees, I think it would make sense to decline this request. Yaris678 (talk) 00:53, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
- Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time.

- Not done. @Rambling Rambler, this is an edit war over a content dispute. You should try discussing this with them on the talk page. (Might I suggest including both sources as a compromise?) The alternative would be fully protecting the page so neither of you can edit it, which I find disproportionate. Toadspike [Talk] 13:01, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Toadspike I've tried speaking to them and explaining the issue to them in both edit summaries and talk pages[94][95] but they've refused any engagement and instead just repeat the edits, saying things along the lines that we should source the claims directly from those making it (which is the opposite of our policies).

Permanent semi-protection: The article has been consistently been given poor-quality edits by random unregistered IPs. I doubt that this is sockpuppeting or anything of that sort because these edits range from good faith edits that are bad nonetheless to random vandalism to occasional racist jokes. Since this is likely tied to the fact that this article is about apes (those funny haha animals) fighting in a war, I don't think this will ever subside on its own. I think permanent semi-protection is needed, especially since this article could very possibly be a Good Article if the vandalism subsides. PsyKat777 WasTaken (talk) 13:31, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

One can just see the edit history; it's a highly contentious topic, one of the two main forces involved in the Sudanese civil war. As such, the article has become increasingly unstable since the end of the siege of al-Fashir and will probably deteriorate for a time. Wazir Pakhteen (talk) 16:00, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IPs keep changing (and edit wars) the club names that got changed after the events [96] [97] [98] [99] [100], and rearrages templates going against MOS:ORDER. Also other disruptive edits [101] [102].-. Fylindfotberserk (talk) 17:31, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
- More disruptive edits [103] [104] (contravening MOS:ORDER again). - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 19:17, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
