Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Armenian users like Yerevanci, Proudbolsahye and Ninetoyadome all of been which has been previously topic banned from editing Azerbaijani related articles and removing well referenced sentences, has been heavily adding biased information and removed good references, while adding none required tags.

I do not feel safe enough for the moment to lift this; the article has been heavily vandalised since it is on wikipedia. Add to that that the topic is still quite controversial.

Sheikh Hasina (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page was vandalized 7 times this month. Also it is a bad political condition in Bangladesh. So I'm sure this page will be vandalized in future before the 2014 General Election. Sheikh Hasina is a prime minister of a country. And I don't think it'll be helpful for WP if an article of a country's prime minister vandalize continuously. So please semi-protect this page for at least 6 months. It'll be better if it's 1 year. I'm from Bangladesh and I know the situation here. I beleive you understand my talking. . Pratyya (Hello!) 14:07, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I've reverted several instances of vandalism, one vandal has been blocked, but I noticed it again today. The page is changing rapidly as this is news worthy event and it's difficult for regular editors to spot the vandalism.

N.B. where edit summaries talk about fixing links, and typos, that's one of the vandals. BracketBot spotted that. Everything had to be reverted manually. I reported that IP and he got blocked for 31 hours. I've given warnings to the others.

Nimbuzz (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I am requesting that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimbuzz be UNSALTED.

Nimbuzz is a major player in the mobile Over The Top instant messaging market. It has 150 million users, across 200 countries. The Nimbuzz page has been created 6 times, and deleted 6 times. Following this, the page was permanently blocked from creation by User:Jmlk17 on 20 July 2010. Shortly after this, Jmlk17 went inactive, hence I am unable to appeal to him or her. Nimbuzz appears to be mentioned 14 times in the English Wikipedia namespace, and probably would be higher had the page been allowed to exist. An additional attempt to create the page was made at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimbuzz_IM. Nimbuzz has pages on the German, Arabic, Spanish, French, Indonesian, Italian, Portuguese and Russian Wikipedias.

I have written new content for Nimbuzz from scratch, and I don't work for them or anything like that. I request that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:JoltColaOfEvil/Nimbuzz be moved to article space as I believe it is notable enough for a page.

Move protection At least 5 RMS, much of the talk page history is requested moves, and there are several instances of unilateral moves against consensus. It is clear the title of this article is divisive, but people should talk it out via RM, so requesting permanent move protection accordingly.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 15:39, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for this, but the debate is not raging currently - this is more of a protective block. Given the page has been moved to at least 6 different names over the past 3 years, and had 5 different RM discussions, I think a pre-emptive indefinite protect, or at least for 1 year, should be considered. Cheers. --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 16:47, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing, including the additions of improperly cited or unsourced material from IP's. I had made a request yesterday but the thread has archived itself, and an admin member has labelled it as "not done". In previous years Eurovision articles such as this have been semi-protected at this early stage as they have become victims of severe vandalism from IPs adding unsourced and speculative information. Some of which had been reported on various websites such as ESCToday.com, ESCKaz.com and even the official website Eurovision.tv; and they accused Wikipedia of "causing false hype regarding countries that were not planning on participating".

Unprotect & enable pending changes protection: The page is currently semi-protected because the pending changes trial was over at that time. However, now that pending changes is back, can we try re-enabling pending changes instead? Please note that this BLP page received excessive BLP violations and it would be better for the page to have some protection rather than zero protection. Webclient101talk 04:05, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not unprotected If we already know the page attracts excessive BLP nonsense, allowing IPs to touch it will lead to more work as the history will need to be eventually Revdel'ed or oversighted. Courcelles 18:04, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well that's not my problem. You should not be logging out to avoid scrutiny because of some asshole harassing you off project when it is so obviously you.

Declined, I'm going to decline this for now. I've reviewed the page history, and there are enough IP constructive edits that semi-protection would be a negative. There are plenty of eyes on the page that any vandalism will quickly be reverted. Legoktm (talk) 07:52, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-admin comment: I took a look at the page history and the so called "fringe theories" that the IP is accused of pushing, and found nothing fringe in them. Quite the opposite, because it is the article as User:BabelStone is trying to preserve it that is full of fringe theories and unsourced or badly sourced claims. Which goes for both Runes and Ancient kings of Finland, so I'll add the same comment to both of them. Thomas.W (talk) 12:26, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The IP's claim that the Germanic languages of Northern Europe have a Finnish origin and that the oldest Runic inscriptions are in Finnish are however very fringe.

Semi-protection" IP disruption turning into a "content dispute" between an IP address and myself. Digirami (talk) 06:15, 10 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

United States pro-life movement (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I wonder if those permitted to edit the page mentioned above could disentangle the lines relevant to the LDS Church in the "Christianity" subsection of "Religion and Views on Abortion." I feel the views of the LDS Church would be best presented separately, perhaps in paragraphs below those discussing the Christian view of abortion. The LDS Church is regarded by Christianity (Roman Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Anglicanism and other Protestantism) as at best a very modern heretical sect, and at worst not Christian at all. Whilst I don't think this needs mentioning in this article, I believe that the reality of this attitude of the "Nicene" Christian Churches to Mormonism warrants the LDS position being stated in a separate paragraph or subsection. It also bears mentioning that the LDS Church views Christian Churches that accept the Nicene Creed (and indeed any other religion outside of Mormonism) to be 'false;' and its founder Joseph Smith started the LDS to be quite apart from established Christianity.

Hi Nathan, you would need to post here, or link to, the edit you're requesting. SlimVirgin (talk) 01:36, 13 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I just need Template:AFC submission/comments/sandbox copypasted to the page. --Nathan2055talk - contribs 16:02, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The diff shows you would be changing:
"Unfortunately, the target article was previously deleted through an articles for deletion discussion, so the only way to create a new page there is by going through deletion review"
to:
"Unfortunately, the target article was previously deleted and has been prevented from recreation, so to create a new page there you will need to request unprotection here. Afterwards, your submission will be moved to article space."
Is that something that needs to be discussed on the talk page first? SlimVirgin (talk) 00:33, 15 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Declined Well, you keep adding in a single line on something that's since be added in a fuller way, with a better (and better formatted) source in a whole section about construction, so the IP's last removal of it was probably justified. As I pointed out last time I declined this, now that it's better sourced they will probably leave it alone, and had you not put it back in, they would have done.

Long-term semi-protection: An IP keeps adding incorrect information and unsourced information to the article...while removing sourced information. That IP has been reverted for months now at that article; see its contributions. Reporting the IP at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism will not help for long because the IP is not above using a WP:Sockpuppet to carry out the same edits, which I noted on the IP's talk page when warning him or her. The IP removed my warning and reverted again. Flyer22 (talk) 18:34, 17 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Futurama (season 7) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. It has been long determined in many talk page discussions (e.g., Talk:Futurama_(season_6), Talk:List of Futurama episodes) that Futurama episodes are to be sorted by production order, and not US broadcast order, which is just a random and objectively-wrong order that Fox and Comedy Central made up (to the ire of the show's creators). All the DVD and Blu-Ray releases of Futurama have followed production order and the creators have noted that production order is the preferred and correct order to watch the show. The second half of season 7 has just begun to air, and it appears that at least the first four episodes of the season 7-B (=second half of season 7) are being aired out of order by Comedy Central. Many IPs editors have been ignoring the in-text warnings that broadcast order is wrong and converting the list to broadcast order. We need the page to be semiprotected for as long as possible (preferably until December when the DVD/BD volume 8 comes out). Thegreyanomaly (talk) 03:28, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Hastings (journalist) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

The tragic death of journalist Michael Hastings has seen significant media attention, with a 51-fold increase in page visits over a one day period.[1] I'm sorry to say that Mr. Hastings died in a fiery single-car accident, colliding into a tree and dying at the scene. He was a war correspondent who aggressively challenged the Pentagon and some of it's top Generals and Officials. Reported by the New York Daily News,[2] his death has caught fire with many conspiracy theorists with claims of a CIA related assassination. These claims, along with an increase in article traffic, make for a bad mix of edit wars and misinformation.

So I plead to any Administrator, please apply a temporary semi-protection in respect of Mr. Hastings.

Thank you.

As mentioned on its talk page, I do not really see a need for protecting this template, the reason given was "very high-risk template" which I doubt – it is only used on 50 pages or so, and there has not been much vandalism, if any. Even if it needed protection, autoconfirmed protection would have been sufficient. I am also asking the admin who protected it, but since he appears to be inactive I am asking here at the same time.

Shooting of Trayvon Martin (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Temporary full protection: This trial, like that of Jodi Arias in Arizona, has attracted much media attention, and, like the Arias trial, has caused much commentary. So that this page cannot be used as a potential base for a "Justice for Trayvon" or "Justice for George Zimmerman" campaign, temporary page protection is requested. I raise this concern since the page on the killing of Travis Alexander was vandalised considerably by a user who was subsequently blocked. It took much time and effort to revert the extensive vandalism. In order that such a situation might be avoided again, this page should be locked until, at the earliest, after the trial. I have also filed an RPP request on the "State of Florida v George Zimmerman" page for the same reasons set out here. The Historian (talk) 18:36, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Correct, this is more pre-emptive. There was a threat on the talk page to move it. As legions of fans find out about this move, one of them is sure to try to move it, in spite of several highly disputed RMs.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 21:23, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"Pages are not protected pre-emptively.", even there is a "declined" tag with this rationale in the "New to RFPP? Read me!" template enlisted here. You respect WP:MOSTM then respect the WP:PP. If this "legion of fans"--read WP:CIVIL, does all of the opposers are fans? If not calm down--start to move the page then come back and request protection. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 21:29, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Per WP:MOVP, move protection can be applied to "Pages subject to a page-name dispute." Please AGF, I didn't know this was NEVER done pre-emptively. In any case, this is an epic dispute, spilling over onto various talk pages, policy pages, etc. Anyway, it's your decision, so I'll respect it. --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 21:37, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not an admin, I cannot decline your request but I can oppose it. Also by "Pages subject to a page-name dispute" this refers to pages already under a page-name dispute like Injustice: Gods Among Us, not that pages that are likely to be moved without consensus or against it because it sill being pre-emptive. Also this is not bad faith, I am simply guiding you how the PP works. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 21:46, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Note: the page was already recently moved once, out of process, after a first move request from Deadmau5 to Deadmaus, and then reverted. So there is a history here...--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 00:38, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, three weeks ago, not yesterday. Really stop with this unless it is moved. It is clear you don't want it to be moved, but if it is moved against consensus it will have consequences to the person who move it and it can be moved back. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 03:26, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Wrong. Seriously, can you please AGF AGF AGF?? I posted yesterday a long and deeply researched post on why it should be moved to Deadmau5 from it's current title of Deadmaus. So I WANT it to be moved - and yet, am asking for protection for the good of the wiki. Anyway, I've said enough here, an admin will judge. --Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 04:13, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
You ask me to "AGF" when you said "As legions of fans find out about this move, one of them is sure to try to move it" and assume the page is in risk to be moved with no evidence (seriously it would have been moved all these days but it hasn't happened). Pages aren't moved pre-emptively and this, of course, shouldn't be an exception. Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 06:48, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not making this stuff up Tbhotch.
  1. The article was *already* moved once out of process, immediately after a formal RM, by someone invoking IAR
  2. Threats by users to move if the move doesn't go how they like: "Once this move request is over and if the article is not moved I will be taking the liberty of moving it back to it's stable title of Deadmau5 per WP:COMMONNAME, common sense and the obvious consensus to do so!"
  3. Determined fans with quotes like this "Stop fighting so hard for something, because I'm extremely determined to get this fixed and I won't stop fighting, I don't care how long it takes. I will appeal, appeal and appeal again until it gets fixed. This could go on for years."
Again, for me, a page-move-protect is not that big of a deal - it just means non-admins can't move the page around willy-nilly. Given the extreme drama around page renames, it's obvious to me that no-one should be moving the page without admin assistance. So putting a short-term cooler on page moves will help to diffuse the situation, no matter what result is decided at the ongoing RM.--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 13:08, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Declined for now. I do agree somewhat with Obi-Wan, move protection isn't as 'serious' as other types, but there has only been one move several weeks ago. I'd need to see more disruption than that for a protection. Re-list if situation worsens. AlexiusHoratius 17:19, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:SWAT (edit | article | history | links | watch | logs)

Semi-protection: Article is protected due to edit warring by IP and sockpuppets. Active SPI in progress. Talk page vandalism has been persistent, attempting to reopen a discussion that was closed by an admin. I know talk pages are rarely protected, but this might be one of those times to make the exception. Niteshift36 (talk) 16:26, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Administrators, this user Niteshift36 (talk) is a liar and posing a double standard accusing others as sockpuppets to try and justify blocking them from a Talk page discussion while he himself engages in meatpuppetry with his meatpuppet friends to try and keep their POV that SWAT is not a Special Operations unit on the SWAT article. He had previously requested that we initiate a vote or discussion on the Talk page instead of edit warring, so we had discontinued any edit warring and instead opened a a discussion for a Vote on the talk page as to whether or not SWAT was considered a Special Operations unit. If you read the discussion, we even tried to make a compromise with Niteshift on the issue of SWAT being a Special Forces unit but he was unwilling to compromise and continued to engage in meatpuppetry and a double hypocritical standard of accusing others of socks.

The user Niteshift36 even thanked us saying "As a side note, I do appreciate the attempt to discuss this time," for starting the discussion/vote on this issue, here is the proof: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:SWAT

And then as the discussion progresses, due to the fact that we provided numerous reputable sources from American Special Ops organization and Special Operations group as well as numerous police department sites that specifically say "Special Operations" in direct reference to SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics), proving that SWAT was considered a Special Operations unit by the Special Forces community Niteshift36 realizes that he cannot either backup or support his opinions with sourced references so he and his Meatpuppet friends engage in Meatpuppetry to try influence the the SWAT discussion from changing consensus. But when they realized that their meatpuppet tactics weren't working then they are now trying to use the so-called excuse that we are socks. The vote should be left to continue as there will be many other people who will want to make a vote on this issue of SWAT being a Special Operations unit so that a new consensus can be reached. You can check the records here to see that he was using a group of friends, Meatpuppets, to try and create a fake "consensus" that SWAT was not a Special Forces or Special Operations unit, see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:SWAT/Archive_1#Special_force_or_not

The meatpuppets of Niteshift36 are:

1.) Anir1uph, you can see Niteshift36 calling over his meatpuppet friend here at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Anir1uph#Discussion_at_SWAT

2.) Dougweller

3.) Callanecc, you can see Niteshift36 calling his other meatpuppet friend here at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Callanecc#Discussion_at_SWAT_article — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.90.242.104 (talk) 16:54, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Yes, when you were one person, I was glad to see you were willing to discuss. After you started trying to manipulate a sham vote, that goodwill and presumption of good faith disappeared.Niteshift36 16:58, 24 June 2013 (UTC)
  • No, you were engaging in meatpuppetry from the very start by contacting your meatpuppet friends Anir1uph and Callanecc. We have tried to negotiate and compromise with you but all you have done is try to use the excuse of socks or sham to try and prevent us from even taking a vote on this issue of whether or not SWAT is a Special Operations unit. You were told many times to backup your personal opinions and everyone reading this Talk page can see that you instead of academically supporting your statements like we did with our sources, you just try to block others from editing with the lame sock excuse. The vote must continue as there will be other constructive members of Wikipedia who will want to take a vote on this important issue at the SWAT page, closing it amounts to nothing more than tyranny by the Niteshift36, Dougweller an administrator who is abusing his rights and privileges as an administrator by becoming the meatpuppet of Niteshift36. I told you many times before, let us come to a compromise on this issue of SWAT being a Special Operations unit and we can just leave this discussion at peace for now and forever! 117.90.242.104 (talk) 17:07, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Notifying those involved in the previous discussion isn't meatpuppetry. I suggest you review the term before you use it. Niteshift36 (talk) 17:38, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Please refrain from a hypocritical double standard, anyone reading wikipedia and looking at the exact time and date when you called and notified your meatpuppet friends about the discussion at the SWAT talk page can see that all you were doing was telling them to come over the the talk page and put their vote or influence to sway the discussion in your bias. By definition, they were meatpuppets and there is no way for you to deny that. Again, out of a humane consideration, I want to be the bigger man and extend the hand of compromise so that we can, together hand in hand, come to a consensus on the SWAT article and end this unnecessary conflict, what do you say? 117.90.242.104 (talk) 17:46, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of 2 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I was going to do this anyway before I saw the RPP. I have not been involved with this article, but I have added to the SPI concerning thse IPs. Dougweller (talk) 17:12, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dougweller (talk) is an administrator who is abusing his privileges as an administrator, he tries to block people from editing as part of the meatpuppet POV pushing campaign initiated by Niteshift36. Dougweller (talk) needs to have his administrator status revoked due to his abuse and unethical blocking of good faith editors who are trying to establish the worldwide accepted fact that SWAT is a Special Operations unit. Even now, he just blocked the SWAT Talk page in an effort to prevent the Vote from taking place, he doesn't want people to establish the consensus that SWAT is a Special Operations unit because he knows that any vote would result favorably in SWAT being a SpecOps unit.

You can check this sourced reference here which specifically states on their page

"Special Weapons and Tactics teams (SWAT) are special operations units in civilian law enforcement agencies such as County Police Departments, Sheriff Departments, US Marshall service, the FBI etc."

Contrary to what you said in your edit summary, Wikipedia is NOT a democracy — Richard BB 17:47, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • On the contrary my fine gentleman, where is the sourced and referenced information saying that "Wikipedia is NOT a democracy"???????

But nevertheless, all articles should be accurate in terms of the information presented in the articles and just because a small group of editors like Niteshift36 and his meatpuppet friends want to put their POV on the article should warrant a greater effort to maintain the academic accuracy of this online encyclopedia, go to the American Special Ops site and confirm for yourself that SWAT is indeed a Special Operations unit. 117.90.242.104 (talk) 17:52, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Regardless of whether or not you believe Wikipedia is a democracy is aside from the issue at stake here, we are talking about maintain academic accuracy of the SWAT article and as the article currently stands it mentions absolutely nothing about SWAT being a Special Operations unit despite the overwhelming public consensus that SWAT (Special Weapons and Tactics) is a Special Operations unit. The American Special Ops site specifically states:

"Special Weapons and Tactics teams (SWAT) are special operations units in civilian law enforcement agencies such as County Police Departments, Sheriff Departments, US Marshall service, the FBI etc."

Not the place for this debate
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
  • Dougweller (talk) is abusing his privileges as an administrator, he tries to block people from editing as part of the meatpuppet POV pushing campaign initiated by Niteshift36. He is being dishonest about his involvement in the SWAT article dispute. The discussion at the SWAT page should be allowed to continue so we can establish a consensus on the issue of SWAT being a Special Operations unit, and Dougweller has no right to block the Talk page as he is doing it in an uncivilised effort to silence any opposing views and prevent a consensus from being established. He is violating Wikipedia policy on discussion pages. Ask yourself, how can a consensus come into being when the discussion Talk page is blocked by an abusive administrator Dougweller (talk) who is trying to prevent the discussion from even occurring in the first place?? He knows that all the evidence, all the public sources, references, all the public majority consensus, as well as consensus within the Special Operations Forces community all agree that SWAT is a Special Operations unit117.90.242.104 (talk) 18:17, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • Please show me where I've support Niteshift36. Hint: removing your trolling is not the same as supporting that user. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 18:35, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • More false accusations from the meatpuppet about "trolling"....let us ask you a question, do you think SWAT is a Special Operations unit or not????117.90.242.104 (talk) 18:40, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • This isn't where content disputes are settled sport. How long before this gets protected as well? Niteshift36 (talk) 18:43, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Niteshift36 (talk), you are the meatpuppet master who is creating the problem, we have tried to have discussions with you on the Talk page, but you first refused to give us any sourced references backing up your POV that SWAT is not a Special Operations unit despite us providing you with numerous reputable sources proving that it is. And second, when you realize you cannot justify your POV with real evidence you resort to ignoring our efforts at discussion and try repeatedly to have us blocked. Three, you then get your meatpuppet friends to block to SWAT Talk page to prevent a discussion from even occurring in the first place which means that you have done nothing except try to block others from establishing a consensus about SWAT being a SpecOps unit! Four, we have made repeated efforts to maintain the peace by offering to make a compromise with you on the first paragraph of the SWAT article and you have refused, preferring only to block and suppress us and other editors from our good faith edits! 117.90.242.104 (talk) 18:52, 24 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Full protection: EBusiness has been vandalising the GeForce 700 Series page and thinks he owns it. He keeps removing external links and good info that others have added to the page. What the hell is wrong with Wikipedia supporting vandals and preventing people that actually care about good info being added from editing? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.142.211.223 (talk • contribs)

Declined No. First of all, this is, at the moment, more a content dispute than anything: your patently false claims of vandalism are personal attacks and if you don't stop making them I will block you. Second, Ebusiness actually is correct in their edits--they remove blatantly promotional language and information, they add sources, they remove a plethora of external links.

Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Temporary semi-protection: An IP (actually one person using multiple IPs) is continuously adding unsourced material to the article, first stating that his dad is a reliable source for the material that he or she is repeatedly adding to it, and then stating that his dad and mom are reliable sources for that material. I explained to the IP on his or her talk page that the material should be reliably sourced; the IP reverted to his or her version for a fourth time. I also asked about this matter at the talk page of another editor who has reverted the IP. Like I stated there, I'm not sure what else to do about the IP, considering that reporting him or her at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism would likely be in vain because the IP doesn't seem to be trying to vandalize the article. Having brought the matter to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection, I have a better chance of something being done about this IP. Flyer22 (talk) 23:24, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This is an unusual situation in that, although IPs are adding unsourced and contentius material, it is also an IP who is doing the bulk of the work in cleaning it up. Both semi-protection and pending changes would impede that effort. There is a chance I've missed an angle or potential solution here, so I'll leave it open for a second admin to review.

Semi-protected. Hi JP, sorry, I added semi-protection before I saw your post here. Someone was adding a lot of unsourced material, so I've taken it back to a stub and added two weeks' semi-protection. You're right that this prevents IPs from cleaning things up, but there was so much unsourced that it had to be removed. I'll keep an eye on the talk page to see whether the protection needs to stay.

Not unprotected I am procedurally declining all of these. Some of them could probably be unprotected, while others may need to remain protected for reasons that aren't readily apparent. That's why it's always a good idea to ask the protecting admin first before making a request here, which as far as I can tell hasn't been done. If they are able to be unprotected, the protecting admins will usually be happy to do so themselves, which eliminates the need for guesswork by some other admin. If any of these admins aren't active, please re-request and I'll be happy to have a look. --Bongwarrior (talk) 01:16, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Declined The edits are mainly in good faith, it just that they don't meet our policies, and some still stand[[26]. Communicating with the users or an edit notice might be a better way to tackle the problem. Salix (talk): 22:03, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Many of the unsourced one are actually vandalism, mixing rumors with false information, for example here, here, and here, and some of IP editors are likely to be the same person who was already blocked for making the same edits here, so there is no point in communicating with them. They just won't stop. Hzh (talk) 03:21, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi- or full protection: A big WP:Edit war going on at that article between IP 24.212.195.135 and Bollfooot.

The IP has reported Bollfooot at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents and at Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism.
