Protected during May 2009[edit]

  1. Jessica Biel - 78 minutes, wasn't fully reverted for 42 minutes, 11 minutes, and more. Enigmamsg 18:41, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. لennavecia 18:47, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
  2. Randy Moss - 8 minutes, 5 minutes from first vandalism, etc. Its semiprotection expired on April 15 and it has been hit repeatedly since. Lengthy protection log. Enigmamsg 18:41, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
    Protected for one year. لennavecia 18:52, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
  3. Vince McMahon (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Regular vandal target. See protection log. Enigmamsg 19:02, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
    Protect one year. لennavecia 19:14, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
  4. Marvin Harrison (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - BLP violation for 16 minutes, 32 minute vandalism, vandalism lasted for hours. Not previously protected. Enigmamsg 19:02, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. لennavecia 19:26, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
  5. Sam Cassell (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - ten hours, almost an hour. Plus, this YouTube video might be interesting to watch - shows what happens when you base an interview off of Wikipedia! Zagalejo^^^ 17:53, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. Multiple prev protections, including one last year by our own VirtualSteve... one year. The YouTube vid is pretty amusing. That guy's got chutzpah, he asked Chelsea Clinton on a date to see Rambo 5 :) Oddly, she declined. ++Lar: t/c 18:17, 2 May 2009 (UTC)
    What a disaster. Anons keep adding that he's an alien. Enigmamsg 04:36, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
  6. Richard Miniter diff ϢereSpielChequers 19:23, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. Use {{article| in future requests, please. لennavecia 21:25, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
  7. Patrick Ewing (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - this was up for over an hour. (It's defintely not supported by the given ref.) Zagalejo^^^ 04:49, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. لennavecia 05:26, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
  8. John Cooper Clarke (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) This lasted a month and a half. It wasn't actually from a new account, but from an old vandalism-only account which for some reason has never been blocked. But I'm suggesting it here anyway as I think (1) it shows the article is under-watched and (2) if the account had been blocked originally the perpetrator would just have come back with a new one, so I think it fits the spirit of this proposal. Iain99Balderdash and piffle 08:55, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. There were other qualifying edits in the history also. Kevin (talk) 09:01, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
  9. David Emory (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - defamation. Enigmamsg 06:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 06:56, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
  10. Larry Fitzgerald (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Vandalism target. Enigmamsg 06:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 07:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
  11. Vida Guerra (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - defamation, [1], [2]. Enigmamsg 06:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 07:00, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
  12. Joe Elliott (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - [3], [4], [5]. Enigmamsg 06:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 07:00, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
  13. Ted Leonsis (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Game. Set. Match. Enigmamsg 06:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 06:56, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
    Note, protection subsequently requested to be lifted, after this article was brought to RFPP ++Lar: t/c 22:00, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
    Now unprotected, after an editor's kind request at ANI. Kevin (talk) 00:21, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
  14. Jamie Varner (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - 6 hours --aktsu (t / c) 13:41, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. لennavecia 19:20, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
  15. Christian Laettner (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - this was up for over an hour; article attracts a strangely high amount of vandalism, considering that Laettner hasn't really been in the public eye for several years. Zagalejo^^^ 19:18, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. لennavecia 19:23, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
  16. Norman Finkelstein (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Article history shows a lot of defamation. He has a history of supporting terrorism and has said and done some pretty reprehensible things, but even he doesn't deserve this. There are some pretty disgusting edits in the history. Also, 13 minutes. Enigmamsg 20:05, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. 1 year due to multiple previous protections. ++Lar: t/c 23:52, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
  17. Anderson Varejão (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - over three hours. Zagalejo^^^ 05:24, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 05:27, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
  18. Pau Gasol (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - This lasted over three hours, which is ridiculous. This is not some obscure player form the 1950s, he's an All-Star on the Lakers, and an Olympic medalist. Zagalejo^^^ 18:41, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done.--VS talk 21:29, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
  19. John Mosley (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - ten weeks ϢereSpielChequers 19:46, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - 3 months.--VS talk 21:28, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
  20. Dick Vitale (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - over 10 days Enigmamsg 03:47, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
    Yeah, but another IP eventually fixed the damage.[6] --Bongwarrior (talk) 04:25, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
    Question is ... does the vandalised comment If Dick would lose sight in one more eye, he would be completely blind. fall within the scope of this page? Thoughts??--VS talk 04:37, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
    Bongwarrior, yes, but I'm not sure how that makes a difference. Steve, there's more. This stuck for a few hours. I find the original edit I linked to troublesome because it's false. Defamatory? Not sure. Definitely vandalism. Enigmamsg 04:52, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. I don't believe that it is relevant that an IP reverted the vandalism, as it does not alter the potential harm caused. The scope of this page is "simple vandalism", so I feel that the original request diff qualifies. Kevin (talk) 05:03, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
    Agreed Kevin and Enigma but wanted to open for brief discussion - transparency thus being enhanced etc.--VS talk 05:51, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
  21. Thom Yorke (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - [7] Enigmamsg 16:17, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
    Protected one year considering previous protections and the specific claims made in the most recent vandalism. لennavecia 17:02, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
  22. Abdul Rashid Dostum (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) 40 mins focused blp vandalism --Rocksanddirt (talk) 20:18, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 22:25, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
  23. Charles Barkley (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - listed as dead for over an hour. Zagalejo^^^ 22:12, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - Kevin (talk) 22:25, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
  24. Bruno Bouchet (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - This was up for over 24 hours. SheepNotGoats (Talk) 16:59, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. لennavecia 17:09, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
  25. Glen Davis (basketball) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - This was up for over three hours. Article has been getting a lot of vandalism lately. Zagalejo^^^ 21:50, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
    Protected 3 months by User:Law. Kevin (talk) 10:56, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
  26. John Calipari (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - defamation, vandalism, [8] Enigmamsg 18:39, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done.--VS talk 22:19, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
  27. Alistair Darling (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) Surprised that this is apparently under-watched, but this lasted over an hour, several more instances of vandalism this evening, albeit more quickly reverted. Iain99Balderdash and piffle 22:16, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done. --VS talk 03:15, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
  28. LeBron James (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Excessive vandalism. Enigmamsg 01:47, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
    Protected for two weeks. Enigmamsg 04:11, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
  29. Kenneth Dunkin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) this lasted a bit over 3 hours and is repeat vandalism. Underwatched article. Marginally notable state politician currently the target of a smear campaign. Vyvyan Basterd (talk) 05:54, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
    Done - 3 months.--VS talk 08:02, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
