Damn (Kendrick Lamar album)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. IPs keep adding The Needle Drop in the critical reception or accolades section, despite it is classified as a unreliable source (WP:ALBUMAVOID). 12:55, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

Alaska Thunderfuck

Temporary semi-protection: This page is the persistent target of the subject or the subject's friends trying to turn it into a fan page (see some of the talk-page discussion, plus tags on the article itself). Now a dynamic IP address is at it. Multiple registered editors have been pushing back against this promotional onslaught of self-citing, fan-blog citing and more, but once a dynamic IP address starts, there's no communicating with the person. --Tenebrae (talk) 19:28, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of two weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This is longer than I'd normally protect for, but given the number of throwaway and IP accounts causing a general nuisance I'd like to protect it for long enough to see if semiprotection (a) solves the problem, or (b) causes further problems. If it becomes clear that this is preventing good-faith new editors from editing, any admin has my consent to lift the protection without consulting me. ‑ Iridescent 19:33, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wii

Reduction in protection level: Indefinitely semi-protected since March 2011. Since this date the Wii's popularity has waned in comparison to newer video game consoles. Downgrading to pending changes or removing protection may be viable, as any IP vandalism seems fairly likely to be much less severe given how much time has passed since the protection was applied.

Franklin Road Academy

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – I'm getting really tired of the constant flow of meatpuppets on this article. Could we have either PC or EC for the remainder of the school year? Perhaps that will at least engender conversation rather than edit warring, but the bottom line is the article is just fraught with POV pushing that in all likelyhood will not go anywhere.

List of Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles of 2018

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – There is some confusion with a recent procedure announced by Billboard on the future dating of their magazine issues and charts, via this press release. It is causing a number of disruptive edits, where editors (particularly IPs) are changing the date of the first 2018 chart from January 3 to January 6. (Per the press release, the first chart in 2018 is January 3, followed the next week by January 6.). MPFitz1968 (talk) 21:39, 1 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I don't know why it wasn't acted on sooner. The page has never been protected, which I understand is because it's brand new, but even then, 2 weeks seems a bit rash to me for a first protection. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:12, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

List of largest stars

Full-protection: There seems to be another very specific attack on both these pages (and some other related pages, especially [3]) by 111.69.70.125 and ThenewEmilyLevesque.

Vaporwave

Indefinite pending changes: Several persistent patterns, mostly from unregistered IPs, have plagued this article since its creation. The most frequent issue pertains to unsourced (or improperly cited) additions to the "List of artists" section. Examples:

3 Jan 2018 — 1 Jan 2018 — 23 Dec 2017 — 16 Dec 2017 — 11 Dec 2017 — 1 Dec 2017 — 23 Nov 2017 — 20 Nov 2017 — 26 Oct 2017

There has been a giant note instructing editors against indiscriminate additions, but it evidently hasn't done much. Other patterns include: removal of sourced content related to Vice, removal of "Internet meme" from the opening sentence, and removal of a controversial-but-sourced paragraph at the end of the article.--Ilovetopaint (talk)

Template:Block indent

Permanent template-editor protection: Fairly high-use (and increasing), with a great potential for mayhem (e.g. entire chunks of WP:P&G pages could be hidden or bollixed by messing with this, and it could also affect lots of article content, template documentation, discussions, etc. This template is not very complicated, but its exactitude, like that of {{quote}} (the version for actual quotations) is fine-tuned and should not be changed by the inexperienced. Most of its CSS needs to move into MediaWiki:Common.css, below the /* Styling for Template:Quote */ block. As we migrate away (in articles, anyhow, even if talk pages are a lost cause) from abuse of description list markup for visual indentation, this template will be very, very used.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ᴥⱷʌ<  12:04, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SNUGGUMS: I hardly believe the page was "inappropriately restored" by me. If you compare older revisions made by other users with mine, you can clearly see that the article is well-written and well-sourced now, ready for GAN (taking in consideration that I'm a quite experienced user with a handful of GAs). Also, I suggest opening a discussion on whether "Save as Draft" should be deleted or not, as it seems to be notable (chart peaks, submission to radios, modest press coverage).

Stitch's Great Escape!

Temporary extended (30/500) protection: Persistent disruptive editing. I've already tried to nominate this within the past 24 hours for only temporary semi-protection, but I'm requesting for admins to reconsider. Both IP editors and newly-registered users have been rather zealously trying to add a closing date and change the status to "Closed" because of what is still considered to be rumors about the attraction's most recent operating run (having finished January 6, 2018) supposedly being its last. We are still waiting for official word from Disney about this; in fact, the ride's official webpage is still online as of this writing. The only "confirmations" have been from fansites and their social media accounts stating that the ride is supposedly closed for good and the attraction's detractors parroting this. One recent edit's summary even has a frustrated IP editor writing, "Stitch's Great Escape is now CLOSED FOREVER. Goodbye." –WPA (talk) 21:26, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

World War II casualties of the Soviet Union

'Indefinite semi-protection:' Long term IP attempt to promote fringe theories

Anonymous IP109.252.84.173 is attempting to use the page as a soapbox to promote the fringe theories of Igor Ivlev regarding Soviet losses in WW2. Ivlev lacks academic status and his theories are not endorsed in any reliable sources that the Anonymous IP can cite. In fact, I have posted a link to a recent academic source that maintains Ivlev’s arguments are without foundation. [14]. Anonymous IP engages in extensive rant on the talk page and has not followed the Wikipedia guidelines for the use of sources that I have pointed out to him/her.[15] The IPs edit list is an extensive attempt to POV push Ivlev's fringe theories [16] Briefly Ivlev synthesizes various Soviet era sources to prove that Soviet war dead were far higher than are reported in current reliable academic sources.

On Russian Wikipedia IPs POV was rejected by consensus on talk page, the IP then started an edit war on Russian Wikipedia. on 1/6/18 I reverted the IP only once, IP then reverted me. Today, 1/7/18 Russian Wikipedia admins reverted his posting and restored my version, they then partially protected the article Later today, the IP posted a series of uncivil remarks about me here on English Wikipedia. User talk:109.252.84.173#Dear Woogie10w, Vandalism Is not Good. Behave Yourself!--User talk:Woogie10w#Behave yourself!

Recently the page here on English Wikipedia was given protection [17] and the Anonymous IP109.252.84.173 was blocked for disruptive editing twice. [18] [19]

Please semi-protect the page to prevent further disruption.--Woogie10w (talk) 22:59, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bishonen - I believe it's always one of three or so phone numbers (it's some kind of admission scam agency); variable IPs, unfortunately, plus a few named accounts last time round, but he gave up on those quickly. I previously just shipped articles to MelanieN whenever he turned to a new institute, she put a couple weeks semi on, and that quietened him down after a while. I'll keep an eye on it and check how constant the numbers are - a filter would certainly be more elegant. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 16:46, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – An anon has been repeatedly inserting unsourced statements etc and generally making a mess of the article. I opened a thread at the talk page and mentioned that in my last edit summary but they appear to have created an account and reverted me again. They're obviously aware of the contribution history page because they've been copy/pasting from diffs. Semi would force them to discuss.

FWIW, I issued a 3RR warning to the anon. Creating the account after that, as I am sure they have done, sort of avoids any repercussions. Sitush (talk) 08:15, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Yes. I was very close to blocking the IP and the account. But I went for a warning to the account's talk page. If this persists at all, we should block them both. Yaris678 (talk) 08:32, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – A series of IP editors are edit-warring over one sentence in the lede, repeatedly claiming that they are removing a spoiler, despite having been told about WP's policies on such matters. Temporary protection is the only thing that is going to put a halt to it. The Old JacobiteThe '45 23:45, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not done As above, protection is not a shortcut to get your own way in a content dispute. IP editors are probably correct in removing unreferenced content from the lede anyway. fish&karate 10:44, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That is the most ignorant reason I've ever seen given for refusing page protection. Film article plot sections are not referenced because the film itself is the source. So, no, the statement is not referenced in either the plot section or the lede, nor should it be. Furthermore, this is not about "getting my way," as you would know if you looked at the edit history and the talk page. What you have done is guaranteed that the anonymous editors who have repeatedly deleted this information will "get their way." ---The Old JacobiteThe '45 13:49, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Both of these articles have a set of IP addresses removing content as "spoilers". I'm assuming that it's the same person as his (their?) MO is to do the same action with the same rationale. I have explained the function of WP:LEAD and WP:SPOILERS several times on IP user talk pages and the article talk pages but he/they refuse to talk and instead just resort to reverting and begging us not to reveal spoilers. It's tiring. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 19:48, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Declined I actually agree with the IPs here - not because of the petty 'must keep spoilers in the lede at all costs' attitude some editors have, but because what plot summaries there are are completely unreferenced, and unreferenced material does not belong in the lede. Irrespective of this, protection is not an appropriate solution to a content dispute. fish&karate 10:36, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Question: Please could you identify what these BLP violations are, as all I see is squabbling over whether a sourced reference to her current boyfriend should be included, citing WP:NOTTABLOID over and over, which is nothing to do with violating WP:BLP. I then see users on both sides logging out so they can continue to revert one another and avoid 3RR. Page protection is not intended to help you get your own way in a content dispute. fish&karate 10:47, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – users repeatedly editing the section on Chelsea Manning, who was convicted of leaking classified information before having her sentence commuted by President Obama in 2016, with users alternating between adding "hero" and "traitor" with various "sources" to back up these points.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – An anonymous editor persists in altering the table so that it contradicts the sourcing in the article.

This is bollocks. The only vandalism on this article has been repeated removal of maintenance tags by the OP.

@John from Idegon: I'm aware it isn't vandalism, which is the reason for the full-protection. There is an edit war, even if a ridiculous one, going on. As such I protected the page to perhaps allow you two to hash this out. I'd rather not start off with a block here, especially when you never left a message on this user's talk page that I could see (therefore I left the warning as well). — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 10:06, 17 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Note: (edit conflict) Article is now sanctioned, Yaris678. @Volunteer Marek: Could you point out to me which IP in the short but filled history of that article is the banned user, and which user they are? I'll make sure to throw a block out on them, it just gets a bit hard for admins to remember all of the particular banned users behaviors sometimes. For now if at all possible, I want to hold off on semi-protection just because of the short lifespan the article has had, and that it appears there would be a large amount of what we call collateral damage since it looks like at least several of the non-logged-in users are making useful edits (even though some have been trouble-making). But, please drop a line at my talkpage if the overall behavior from IPs begins to decline or if egregious BLP violations begin. And I'll be sure to throw an immediate protection on it. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 12:33, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The Lion King (franchise)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – In the past month, a number of IP editors have been trying to mark The Lion King 1½ as a theatrical film in this article because it received a limited theatrical release in some countries and select American cities. However, that film is generally considered to be a direct-to-video film, especially on IMDb which marks it with a "Video" tag on their site (used for primarily direct-to-video releases). In addition, recent edits made by a IP editor also changed the release dates of that film and the first one to different incorrect dates. (That IP editor has been warned about this already and I'm not requesting any further action against them at this time.). –WPA (talk) 02:52, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Declined. I see the problem. About once or twice a month, over the past many months, the page gets one massive vandalism edit. That's not a frequent enough problem to apply semi-protection (which we are reluctant to use for talk pages, and only for a short term when we do). PC would help but PC is not technically possible on talk pages. I'm sorry, I'm afraid we can't help with this kind of spread-out vandalism - but do ask for protection if they hit several times in succession. MelanieN (talk) 02:30, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – This has been going on for years. Someone keeps trying to force mention of a particular cop who they claim was involved in this case ina relatively minor role. They will not discuss, they will not cite a source, and apparently they will not stop trying to add this, ever. Long-term semi or PC should stop it, short-term won’t, they come back every few months and do it again. I’d do it myself but I have been heavily involved in editing the article. Blocking the accounts doing this may also be in order, they create a new account every time they do this. Beeblebrox (talk) 09:18, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Ad Orientem: I was thinking PC would be a good fit, this seems like exactly what it is for. I had to take an extended break last year and this same self-promotion was added again and sat in the article for nearly six months. PC would have caught that while alllowing other edits through.

Turkish military intervention in Syria (January 2018–present)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent IP vandalism. An IP editor has made no less than five reverts (two of them massive) of the actions of three editors (including myself) in the article in just 14 hours. The IP editor's constant reverting seems to be POV in nature, he has ignored warnings and has not engaged in any talk page discussions. EkoGraf (talk) 14:07, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The editor in question is now also making unsourced edits, inserting info that is not per the cited sources and the one sourced edit he made was based on a twitter post, which is not accepted as a reliable source per WP policy. Also, two more IP editors have now joined in and are removing sourced content, one calling the content's sources pro PKK terrorist sources. EkoGraf (talk) 22:32, 20 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Full-protection: Persistent IP vandalism. Editors constantly adding false and un-needed information. Purposely not structuring an episode table properly, taking out key information and adding what they would rather see despite a reliable source stating the information that was there before.

I Can't Stop Thinking About You

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – An article about a song, where a blocked editor is using different IPs to add a claim that is not (and cannot be) sourced, namely that she co-wrote the lyrics. The discussion here makes it quite clear that it's unsourcable. Most recently, an unintelligible YouTube clip has been posted as "attribution", but it doesn't work as a source since it doesn't mention the alleged info - the reader is supposed to infer something that isn't said or even alluded to. Reporting the IPs doesn't work since she changes them. Discussion and explanations don't work. It has not been going on for more than a couple of days right now, but the campaign to right great wrongs is much older, as seen in the Teahouse discussion linked above. bonadea contributions talk 07:22, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Elbow Beach (album)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. The page is a target of MariaJaydHicky sockpuppets (almost all of the last fifty edits of the page were either by socks or by persons reverting socks). See, for example, this edit from a sock in December versus this edit from just minutes ago. The page was semi-protected for a month in December, and as soon as the protection expired the socks resumed genre warring. MariaJaydHicky frequently jumps between IPs and different accounts so blocking is usually not sufficient, which is why I am requesting semi-protection. 青い(Aoi) (talk) 16:54, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Multiple IPs and 2606:a000:ee47:7c00:6233:4bff:fe08:f41c are adding unsourced content on the article, or changing content. The weird numbered editor is actually editing the article to mean something different than its original meaning. This editor did the same thing on another article. They changed the PBR World Cup to be content about the PBR Global Cup. The other editors continue to edit articles without using sources and ignore the talk page messages. Weird numbered editor ignored the edit summaries until last night when they posted a one sentence message in the talk page that indicated they would continue to change the article. They are also making similar unsourced edits to other bull riding articles and even have posted comments in the articles instructing that no one change their edits.dawnleelynn(talk) 17:13, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Question: @PohranicniStraze: Are you sure at least some of this isn't a Template:Backwards copy? When I search for the text, I see mirror sites. I also ran several offending revisions into toolforge:copyvios ([70][71]) and didn't get many results, and that tool automatically excludes some mirror sites. — MusikAnimal talk
@MusikAnimal: I was basing my assumption on this site, which claims a 2015 copyright and has a lot of directly copied info, but after investigating it looks like some of the same material appears on pre-2015 revisions of the page. So you may be right and the site owner is claiming a copyright in error, in which case I withdraw the request for semi-protection. PohranicniStraze (talk) 15:45, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Declined There was an AFD [72] that ended as "no consensus", which means it defaults to keep. The discussion you point does not override that AFD and in fact, is insufficient to establish anything. Reading it, it clearly does not reflect what you say it does, was not widely advertised like an RFC, didn't present a question, wasn't closed by a neutral party, etc. You are welcome to submit it to a new AFD, but at this time, it is you that is edit warring against consensus, so you should stop doing that or you risk sanction.
