Reason: See @ User:El_C's edit summary from September. Page was recently recreated based on unreliable sources, with notability still not established. I redirected it again. If there is a way to separately protect the page from being recreated without AfC, that might be worth considering. DFlhb ( talk) 00:10, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
- @
DFlhb The way may be to move it to draft without leaving a redirect and salt the mainspace title. I'd be down to do the move, would need an admin to salt the mainspace title though.

Temporary extended protection: Persistent Disruptive Editing. Persistent addition of factually incorrect info, the IP is I believe logged out editing from Bezawada16 user.

Indefinite semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. Can we please get indefinite semi? That level of protection was working fine, until it was removed in May 2022.

Change the Closer section in Major works to: Closer
Carucci's first significant body of work is first and foremost about the nuclear family but also touches upon the universal topics of intimacy, mother-daughter relationships, the female body, and mortality. Her parents, grandparents, and partner are the central players, each of whom she portrays gently but unflinchingly in her images. Her color photographs work with a definite color palette, with mesmerizing quality to the serene vivid reds and blues set against the myriad tones of bare skin. With her unique approach to making work, one that merges both planned, staged, and well-lit photographs, simultaneously with openness to the intuitive and spontaneous process, she creates images that highlight the depths of the beauties and pain of being human.

Add the section MIDLIFE Elinor’s vivid descriptions of Midlife depict the complicated, layered aspects of life that affect both men and women on an intimate level in an immersive and up-close look at these important years. Through love, generations, family, women's health, and intimacy, Midlife tells the story of getting older during the middle of life. Midlife is a universal period for us all, yet this reach narrative is absent from our cultural dialogue, and in this body of work by Carucci’s asks the viewrs to look thoroughly and to collectively see what is so often unseen.

international business times. The editor who added these problematic areas is keen to restore them, without regard to the higher standard of sourcing required for living person content, as they have made clear on talk.

- As pointed out on the Talk page cited, big issues include a HuffPo senior reporter being removed, I didnt object to the IBTimes removal Ive done it a lot and made sure it was removed when I restored other content, and Ive repeatedly asked the editor to not bulk remove every Daily Beast citation without discussion or even reading the articles or looking at the authors which include definite experts like Kevin Poulsen. Theyve admitted removing articles without knowing it despite being told Softlemonades ( talk) 21:08, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
The editor who added these problematic areas is keen to restore them
Ive asked you to just to discuss the changes and you just revert them again and ignore WP:BRD. At this point thats all I want especially since you removed at least some things like the Washington Post without knowing it or looking at themwithout regard to the higher standard of sourcing required for living person content
I disagree and think its an odd thing to say about stuff that includes how much money WikiLeaks raised through Bitcoin Softlemonades ( talk) 21:24, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

- Comment This was previously proposed 4 days ago; BLP subject has edited the page again after the previous request, but stopped 3 days ago. Unclear whether he could have seen the COI warnings (see linked COI noticeboard discussion). Regardless, if allowed under WP:IAR, I support page protection, to nudge the subject into using the talk page and avoid him risking sanctions, since I believe he edited his page with rare good faith. DFlhb ( talk) 05:06, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
- Declined Even protecting the page will not make sure the IP, be they Brendan Miller or not, will use the article talk-page. I would follow what is spelled out at
WP:BLPEDIT, and repeatedly link to
WP:BIOSELF in edit summaries and talk-page warnings; even with changing IP adresses this ought to be seen after some time.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – This is for making sure I can confirm no one removes themselves from the list. Ilovejames5 :) 10:20, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
- The protection policy requires that user subpages aren't protected
pre-emptively protected without good reason or cause
and I don't believe that a subpage is likely to be modified nor that the purpose you're intending to use it for requires it to be protected. Focus on the articles rather than making a personal list of editors you've warned. I won't decline this so other admins can have a look and see what they think. Callanecc ( talk • contribs • logs) 12:14, 5 January 2023 (UTC)- Declined
This provides enough reason for the moment, as there has been no disruption. I personally would refrain from maintaining such a list (it seems somehow to go against the "spirit" of Wikipedia, and if you intend to warn plenty of people with say changing IPs, it would quickly become rather unwieldy), and I concur with my esteemed colleague above.

- Daniel Case, I fell for this first too. The reports page is at Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives/Reports, though. The talk page of the shell around these reports should (at least theoretically) never see any reports. That said, keeping some of the disruption on this specific talk page rather than elsewhere could even be desirable.
- I guess if there's actually a need for semi-protection, those who deal with it will request or implement it.
Lemonaka has never edited the page.

Indefinite semi-protection: (or at least, one long enough to stop the nonsense). Persistent vandalism – The disruptive editing started as soon as the protection expired. Please note that a) similar disruption (regarding the picture) has been taking place on Commons (leading to the image being fully protected) and b) the edit requests on the article's talk page that keep being declined (as they go against what the source says).

Unprotection: There is a draft at Draft:Mark Wiens which in my view meets the WP:AFC acceptance criteria of having a greater than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion discussion. It is a borderline notability article, which is fine. A prior version has been deleted at AfD, but in 2017. Things have moved on with Wiens since then. I have no concerns that it may well be sent straight to AfD, since the community can decide its fate. There is a lengthy discussion at the AFC Helpdesk. It might be seen that this request is sidestepping that discussion, which is why I have linked to it - to seek to ensure that is not so, and that there can be no accusations of forum shopping. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 16:23, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Reason: I am requesting page protection for all NFL playoff teams until February 19, 2022, a week after the Super Bowl LVIII. Once a team loses in the playoffs it instantly leads to childish changes of the ownership in the infobox to the winning teams quarterback or stars. These childish posts are quickly screenshotted and end up on meme pages fueling more vandalism. To prevent this I am requesting page protection from IP editors as the damage of IP vandals far outweighs any value from valid IP editors over the next five weeks. I will request lowering of page protection after two weeks for defeated teams, the period of time in which these immature vandalism sprees usually ends.

Reason: Requesting protection for First Iraqi–Kurdish War and Iraqi no-fly zones conflict. These articles have recently experienced mass infobox edits (and associated edit warring) by the dynamic IP 86.141.92.231/86.137.14.137, whose edits (involving grandiose claims of "Iraqi victory") consistently fail verification and who is temporarily blocked for violating the 3RR per an AN3 report. (The IP has also engaged in edit warring and misrepresentation of sources at Iraqi invasion of Iran, but seems to have stopped after a particularly egregious instance of misrepresentation was pointed out.) Because this specific IP address will not be blocked for long and may change dynamically in short order, I am requesting extended-confirmed protection to minimize the potential for further disruptive editing.

Reason: Four different IPs (43.229.88.175, 43.241.192.189, 103.240.205.83 and 43.241.192.211) keep making the same disruptive edit over and over again without any justification for their changes and despite having been told to stop. A look at their contribution pages strongly suggest that it is the same person using different IPs. I've already reported this problem before and the page was protected for 2 weeks, but as soon as the protection was over, the vandalism resumed. I'm therefore requesting a longer protection for the page. Thanks in advance. Johnn Francis ( talk) 23:40, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to
justify protection. Since we have four different requests for the same set of socks, let me elaborate on why I have declined them all. 1) At least some of the accounts reported for socking were not found to be socks. 2) We have constructive edits by IPs during the same period. 3) For most of these articles, we have two socks in ~2 months; this would be borderline for protection in any case. 4) The socks were all autoconfirmed, meaning we would need EC-protection to have stopped them; and that requires a greater threshold of disruption to be met.

- WP:A/I/PIA refers to the Arab Israeli conflict in general, "broadly construed", not just Israel and Palestine. ("the entire set of articles whose topic relates to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly interpreted ("primary articles"), and edits relating to the Arab-Israeli conflict, to pages and discussions in all namespaces") The edit notice says the article partially relates to AI conflict. Note there is material concerning the Israel Lebanon war as well as the Gaza report. The editor already refused to participate in discussion. These single purpose, low edit count, new accounts are typical for the AI area. Anyway never mind, I can see that you do not want (or cannot) protect the article "partially" so I will deal with it another way.

- You're right, my (ancient) reading of the Arbcom decision was that the scope was specifically Israel and Palestine, but it seems to have been expanded to include all Arab-Jewish conflict worldwide. But you're also right that I can't protect part of an article, and I'm not keen to protect an entire article on an American human rights activist under the scope of these particular sanctions, as I'd be protecting a lot of material that's clearly out of scope. The sanction says that you are free to revert to enforce the ECP requirement without regard to 3RR, although it's not really a good idea to lean on that freedom too much. However, if the editor continues to be evidently only here to right great wrongs, you could ask that they be blocked. WP:ANI or WP:ANEW would be appropriate for that, depending on the circumstances. I'll also watchlist the article. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 15:48, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Reason: This page was inundated with scammers attempting to steal cryptocurrency donations. It promoted a significant amount of spam, as well as at least six external links, all of which led to GitHub repositories asking for donations. All future edits must be discussed on the talk page, so the page must be protected. 38.25.15.67 ( talk) 03:52, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
- Note: The number of edits probably isn't enough to justify protection but given what's being added I believe that it's problematic enough to warrant protection - probably pending changes but I'd like a second opinion.

Wikipedia:Communication is required. This is a content dispute with experienced editors using revert warring to enforce an opinion instead of discussing the change. The page is full-protected and I have removed the image, pending a discussion that I will start momentarily to determine which poster should be used. If the image is restored against consensus I will start using the block button instead.

- Not unprotected – Protection does tend to prevent unwanted activity, be it vandalism or advertisement. At any rate, this article has way too long a history of such disruption, not to mention sock-puppetry, for protection to be lifted. Should it be possible for someone to create a draft living up to Wikipedia's standards with regard to notability etc., it should be submitted through

Reason: On 9 January 2023, user DawnSP removed entries of two new singles released under Zhang Zhehan's name, including their references to the official lyric videos and Apple Music, on the English, Chinese and Japanese versions of his Wikipedia page. The note user DawnSP has written for their edit said "controversial content(there's no proof that the two newly released singles were recorded by Zhang Zhehan)", is introducing a conspiracy theory suggesting songs released officially on music platforms under the artist name "Zhang Zhehan" are not by Zhang himself. Hence, this song removal edit is inappropriate to do on Wikipedia. I have since restored the entries of his new singles on the English version. Previously in 2022, there had been many single purpose accounts who edited Zhang's Wikipedia page, which prompted the page to be protected until 30 December 2022. Since the lifting of the protection on his page, it is evident that single purpose accounts are returning to remove new updates about Zhang. I hereby request protection of Zhang Zhehan's Wikipedia page to prevent future vandalism from occurring. Durianpizza1991 ( talk) 00:15, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

We do restrict editing on articles when there is a lot a vandalism being done to them, or if so many bad edits are being made that we need to monitor them before they go live, but at least for now, this article is not having these problems. If you notice that problems pop up, just list it here again. I'm going to add an official declined notice so the archiving bot will remove this entry. Cheers.

Reason: Disruptive editing made by another user while correcting outdated brand page. This fast fashion brand is in the media lately and as media is quoting Wikipedia, the public is getting misled that the brand is still under LVMH when they are in fact not. I tried to update information of the actual group they are under with references but it keeps getting removed. It is not known when LVMH dropped them, but the year the other group took over will be crucial information, which is why I am citing them in the references. The other user seems to want to hide all that new information and just keep adding fluff like listing all the 37 countries the stores are located. Requesting page to be protected. Thank you. 2404:E801:2003:2430:792C:F613:F2EE:9CFE ( talk) 09:28, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for raising page protection. I had hope it will not come to this. Charles and Keith is an independent company while Valiram Group is a retailer group selling Charles and Keith products (similar to it selling other products and brands). The phrase The brand is currently under Malaysia-based retail and lifestyle group Valiram Group indicates Charles and Keith is now another brand under their group while it is not. LVMH purchased a 20% stake and subsequently their stake is sold back to the company. This is actually a content dispute and slowly becoming disruptive editing by IP editor. Thanks. Justanothersgwikieditor ( talk) 09:55, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- I was the one who updated the LVMH reference. You can choose to paraphase if you are so offended by the particular statement. I am just pointing out they are no longer affiliated to LVMH as they have been portraying and in fact now under Valiram. That is the truth. Why are you hiding the facts that they also listed fast fashion, specializes in selling footwear? That is disruptive editing.
- This is not the venue for content dispute. I had updated the buyback by the Wongs
here but you had insisted on adding Valiram Group which simply sells C&K products. C&K is not under Valiram Group's management, unless as the other editor had said
here that it is not owned by valiram. going by this logic, coach, michael kors, versace, victoria secret, bvlgari are also owned by valiram? which you agreed to
here listing the group they are under is important and Noone is saying Valiram owns them, hence the word under but C&K is simply not under them at all. This is a case of

Reason: See talk page. An IP user, presumably the same person with a very narrow range of interests, has repeatedly added the prefix "Sir" before the subject's name, despite an explanation note saying this is not true, and an open invitation to discuss on the talk page. The user has been repeatedly active in recent days. There was pending changes before, but I've seen pages indefinitely protected for less sockpuppetry than this one.

Earlier today, you submitted the draft through AFC, where it was rejected. The draft was then deleted, following your own request. Now you want to create it in main space?

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because there has been no vandalism on Damar Hamlin since unprotection.

- This was upgraded to semi-protection from

Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.)

Jéské Couriano (No further replies will be forthcoming.)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Unnecesary reverts keep being made by an IP user over an infobox change despite the fact that there is no set guidelines in place on how an image montage should look, and there were previous discussions about this on U.S. city articles like the one for New York City.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent re-addition of disruptive edits by socks of Belteshazzar. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Belteshazzar and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Belteshazzar/Archive. Each of these pages has been disruptively edited by multiple socks of Belteshazzar more than three times recently. Most of these pages are in the Wikipedia space and would not normally see much legitimate editing from the new and anonymous users who would be covered by the semi-protection. As always, protection may inconvenience some people but I think it is worth it if we can dissuade Belteshazzar from constantly reinstating their bad edits using new IP addresses. other affected editors can always use the Talk pages to request changes. DanielRigal ( talk) 20:07, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- The edits in question only fixed problems and added useful content. By contrast,
Daniel's revert restores borderline BLP violations, since some of that wording might make it sound like the authors of the letter are partly to blame for the disastrous repercussions. If that page is protected, it should be full protection, with that last revert undone.

DecafPotato: Feel free to add a redirect. If someone replaces the article with a redirect, then it's probably worthwhile to take it to AfD to ensure consensus hasn't changed. Otherwise, I don't see any need to protect these redirects.

Reason: A user insists on boldly splitting HomePod to HomePod (1st generation) and HomePod (2nd generation) (with a cut&paste move, in the former case), despite having repeatedly been reverted by me and two other users. Don't think this rises to the level of a sustained behavioral issue, so I'm merely requesting page protection, so both of the latter pagess can remain redirects until there is any consensus for a split.

- The page might seem to be already protected, but only the history has been merged. I agree with protecting the page as it's used in MediaWiki:Abusefilter-warning-CT. I guess noone would complain if I did, but it can't hurt to let someone else perform the protection. ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 23:32, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

Template protected indefinitely. I've gone for template editor protection as that was what was used for its predecessor and that while it is used in the interface it's not widely seen by people inexperienced with Wikipedia.

Reason: Hello, I inserted a valid, referenced and related quote into a suitable section of this article (see my initial edit: 1), however user Marcelus keep removing it without providing a valid justification ( 1, 2).
In my talk page he claimed that it should be removed because "I don't really see how this separate qoute enriches article" ( 1), "We don't really need" ( 2 - by the way, he wrote it himself alone, so it should have been "I don't need"), "In my opinion, the section "Political views" comprehensively describes the issue."( 3), but these are not valid justifications and is only his own opinion which is not supported by any Wikipedia's rules. Basically, he was writing different justifications again and again.
Marcelus also claims that the quote should be completely removed because in the Mackevičius' article it is written that "Šenavičienė claims that the account faithfully reflects the thoughts of Mackevičius himself, more than his testimonies written after his imprisonment, facing the death penalty" (the reference is not accessible online, so it is not even possible to check if it is really written like that in the reference). But that's not a valid justification to remove a quote either because it does not say that his post-imprisonment letters are not reliable and should not be described. Another user Cukrakalnis also noted (see: 1) that Marcelus' actions of censoring this quote are not valid according to Wikipedia's rules, but Marcelus ignores this.
The quote he keep removing is an excerpt from a letter which Mackevičius wrote when imprisoned saying that "The Lithuanian nation is hardworking, honest, religious, so it is worth my life. I am waiting freedom of my people as it was retribution...". Another referenced sentence in the article also say that "Mackevičius' main goal is the rebirth of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth"", but it does not deny the fact that he fought for the Lithuanian nation (in his own words - his people).
Consequently, please take actions against Marcelus' provoking of revert warring in this article. We don't need to continue this and the quote must stay as it does not violate any Wikipedia's rules.
By the way, there is a case at administrators noticeboard (see: HERE) which claim that Marcelus' actions are disruptive as he was calling a notable Lithuanian scientist and minister of education Zigmas Zinkevičius as "chauvinistic pig" (see Marcelus' edits here: 1, 2). Such personal attacks against a famous Lithuanian should not be tolerated in Wikipedia. But it seems the disruption is spreading into another article - Antanas Mackevičius. Please stop this. -- Pofka ( talk) 18:29, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Declined - content dispute. While no policy compels removal of the quote, nor does policy compel its inclusion - you will need to discuss and reach
consensus on this issue. If you do not agree with
Marcelus' rationale for removing the quote, you can request a
third opinion or try
dispute resolution. Thank you.

- @ Pofka I really hoped that after the ban was lifted, less than a month ago, you came back as a changed man. Meanwhile, you are back to your old practices. On your talk page, I wrote exactly why a quote introduced in such a way violates the WP:QUOTE rules. But you simply ignored it, in addition you wrote untruthfully that the only reason I removed the quote is my own unjustified, personal preference.
- In short:
- you put the quote in the form of a motto, not in the body of the article.
- the source is uncertain, AM's testimony was given in Polish and Russian, your quote comes from a random website in Lithuanian
- researchers who are quoted in the text claim that AM's testimony does not reflect his intentions honestly, because it was given on death row, etc. Quoting him directly, without such context, suggests otherwise
- the quote you chose is not even representative of what is contained in AM's testimony, since he gives various motivations that are partially mutually exclusive
- I wrote you all this on your
talk page, but you ignored it.

Reason: Disruption. Again. Fuck. I don't care if the semi-protection is indefinite or temporary. This shit just needs to stop. This should have been protected years ago. And now there's a second reason these IPs are disrupting too.
As before, there is the same stupid shit of IPs and new users constantly adding a clone of a main character and a car to the main character box such as here today and earlier this month refusing to go to the fucking talk page.
I am so sick of this. These people refuse to go to the fucking talk page and ignore the clearly written hidden note, in fact removing it in most cases. I am so fucking tired of this. I know I keep saying this, but I really fucking am. They need to be forced onto the fucking talk page if they refuse to read a hidden note.
However, there is also the case that at least in this first disruptive edit, as well as another edit here, and a third one here, I can already predict that people will be adding that Justin Roiland is no longer part of the show. There is now more than enough disruption to protect this page. Unnamed anon ( talk) 06:14, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

- As a matter of fact; Dalida's official short film and documentary done by Paris Match and featuring her own brother is called: Dalida l’Egyptienne : les premières années. [27]
- The Wiki article of Dalida has a template stating: { This article may be written from a fan's point of view, rather than a neutral point of view. Please clean it up to conform to a higher standard of quality, and to make it neutral in tone. (September 2021) }

- Many Western fans have been constantly and systematically deleting her Egyptian link, even though her own family members massively document it as a huge part of her identity, till the point that she made a song calling Egypt her homeland.
- I tried to make the article as neutral as possible, and not so Western-biased, and indeed supported by sources.
- The Egyptian-born Franco-Italian singer Dalida is renowned worldwide for her top-selling musical records. But in Egypt, she was a national symbol. Before emerging on the French stage, Dalida made her debut in Egyptian cinema. In 1986, Dalida returned to her birthplace to reflect on her past and star in the film The Sixth Day by Youssef Chahine. In this talk, we will follow Dalida’s journey from Egypt to France and back again to make her last film. [28]
- With all due respect, you kept the biased edits, even though I am the one who brought many sources and an official documentary created by her own family members. Thank you.

Reason: Multiple attempts by IP and newly-created users at reverting information provided by reliable sources and moving the article name without discussion or consensus. Possible WP:Sock activity as well. WMrapids ( talk) 17:40, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Do you want move-protection as well as semi-protection?
Daniel Case (

- Yes, this seems appropriate. It would prevent further edit warring and would promote discussions regarding possible moves. WMrapids ( talk) 23:03, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
- Comment I'll leave this for
Daniel Case to decide, but in looking at the history it appears to me that most of the reverted edits and the move are coming from an auto-confirmed user, so that semi-protection would not help. I suggest you pursue the sock angle. --

Reason: Repeatedly vandalized by IP edits. If approved, this would be the eighth time that the talk page has been protected, with the last time being on January 6th. Since the last protection, 19 edits have been made to the talk page. 10 of them are edits that had to be reverted and the remaining 9 edits were the reverting edits. Given that "Tag: Revert" and "Tags: Revert" appear a combined 230 times in the last 500 edits with an assumed ~230 additional edits made to undo those edits, I am requesting a month or more of temporary protection. -- Super Goku V ( talk) 05:31, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Would appreciate a mix of temporary semi-protection and 6 months pending changes being applied to the page to help fend off the recent spate of vandalism that has unfortunately accompanied the abrupt exponential rise in traffic to the page in the wake of the firm's damning revelations regarding stock market manipulation by a controversial Indian tycoon. MBlaze Lightning ( talk) 09:16, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- Question: Is there enough problematic activity to make a blanket conclusion about curtailing IP editing? Seems that there has been substantial contribution by anons, and 6 months is a long time for any kind of remedy.
Fuzheado |
Talk
13:21, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- I appreciate your concerns, Fuzheado. Yes, anons have actively contributed to the page in the past 48 hours, some clearly in a constructive manner, but a disproportionate number of them have also indulged in crass vandalism. What has concerned me is that the page seem to be short on watchers to be able to fend off the same in real time, and this has lead to unenviable situations with readers stumbling across mala fide content and then taking to Twitter to highlight the same. To illustrate: edits like these stood for hours before I detected and reversed them. Heck, the latest edit, a couple hours ago, was an anon making unexplained change to the number in infobox, which remained intact despite the very telling edit summary. The firm's revelations have had a ripple effect on the Indian stock market, which is likely to continue when they open again after weekend. A temporary semi-protection will thus help deal with immediate vandalism, while a PC will bring more eyes to the article, while also concurrently allowing constructive anonymous IP contributions. If 6 months is excessive, how about giving it a trial run for a month? Regards, MBlaze Lightning ( talk) 21:28, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Reason: Even though it was explained and well sourced in the talk page, people continue to do the wrong edits.

Vestigium Leonis ( talk) 11:05, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Fuzheado |
Talk
13:21, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- I would probably go for a 1 month semi-protection. It should be sufficient to cool this "back and forth" off. I think that BOM and The Numbers as sources are clear enough, but maybe there is a clarification needed on the talk page on how to treat releases that are split in 2 years due to for example releases in different countries in the last week of 2022 and first week of 2023.

- I am trying to invite participation but, while the vandal stomps all over the place, other people are not likely to feel welcome to contribute. It may well be that the lack of participation reflects a view that other editors are happy with the content as it is and that no change is needed but we need to allow for that discussion to happen if anybody (other than the vandal) wants to have it. Given the level of disruption being caused, I feel that locking anonymous editors out for a period is the lesser evil here.

- After the "vandal" edited the article somewhat extensively, no change was made for over a month, until a mass reversion of everything that account had done occurred on December 12.
[31]. So that could be interpreted as other editors being happy with the revisions that had been made. In fact, had anyone else edited that article in that time, Bbb23's mass reversions likely wouldn't have touched that article.

- Belteshazzar, we see you changing your IP after each and every edit. This page is not yet another venue for you to try to defend your indefensible behaviour. Go away. If that article needs editing then Wikipedians in good standing will edit it. All you are doing is making that harder for them.

- After the "vandal" edited the article somewhat extensively, no change was made for over a month, until a mass reversion of everything that account had done occurred on December 12.
[31]. So that could be interpreted as other editors being happy with the revisions that had been made. In fact, had anyone else edited that article in that time, Bbb23's mass reversions likely wouldn't have touched that article.

- I am trying to invite participation but, while the vandal stomps all over the place, other people are not likely to feel welcome to contribute. It may well be that the lack of participation reflects a view that other editors are happy with the content as it is and that no change is needed but we need to allow for that discussion to happen if anybody (other than the vandal) wants to have it. Given the level of disruption being caused, I feel that locking anonymous editors out for a period is the lesser evil here.

Reason: Continuous edit warring since August. IPs and registered editors keep parroting fringe POV which contradicts sources, but never heed instructions to start discussion and reach consensus at article talk page. Mac Dreamstate ( talk) 16:51, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

I have encouraged editors to participate at the article talk page in the hopes that consensus can be reached, rather than reinstate the table, thereby resulting in more edit-warring.

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Would appreciate a mix of temporary semi-protection and 6 months pending changes being applied to the page to help fend off the recent spate of vandalism that has unfortunately accompanied the abrupt exponential rise in traffic to the page in the wake of the firm's damning revelations regarding stock market manipulation by a controversial Indian tycoon.

- I appreciate your concerns,
Fuzheado. Yes, anons have actively contributed to the page in the past 48 hours, some clearly in a constructive manner, but a disproportionate number of them have also indulged in crass vandalism. What has concerned me is that the page seem to be short on watchers to be able to fend off the same in real time, and this has lead to unenviable situations with readers stumbling across mala fide content and then taking to Twitter to highlight the same. To illustrate: edits
like
these stuck around for hours before I detected and reversed them. Heck, the latest edit, a couple hours ago, was an
anon making unexplained change to the number in infobox, which remained intact despite the very telling edit summary. The firm's revelations have had a ripple effect on the Indian stock market, which is likely to continue when they open again after weekend. A temporary semi-protection will thus help deal with immediate vandalism, while a PC will bring more eyes to the article, while also concurrently allowing constructive anonymous IP contributions. If 6 months is excessive, how about giving it a trial run for a month? Regards,

Reason: Disruptive editing: Due to a widely publicized recent disputed fringe study, people are constantly editing the article to claim horses were present in America before the Spanish. The talk page consensus appears to be that this is fringe content, or at least the claims that this is fringe have gone unanswered and no responses whatsoever have been made in support of this study, while several reasons to ignore it, including a published expert opinion, have been posted. Recommend that the article be protected temporarily since this claim is making the rounds in various internet fora and leading to these unproductive unilateral edits.

Reason: Hello, due to disruption in this article in the past (mass-removal of content) it was highly edit-protected. However, user Marcelus still recently tried to himself removal a large part of a well-referenced and extensive section in this article (see: 1, 2). His actions were opposed by user Cukrakalnis ( 1, 2), but user Marcelus again tried to remove the content himself (see: 1). Then a third party user GizzyCatBella intervened and also reverted Marcelus' removal (see: 1) and said that it should be discussed first.
Consequently, a RFC was started (see: Coat of arms of Lithuania#RfC: content of the section on Belarus) to solve the dispute between users with different opinions and to reach a WP:CONS what should be done with the disputed section. The RFC is still not over (closed) yet and there is no clear WP:CONS what should be done, so no changes should be made to the disputed content.
However, another user Piotrus left his comment at RFC and tried to remove the section nearly entirely as well (see: 1).
I myself restored the content to a version which was at the start of the RFC so that anyone interested could leave their opinions at RFC (it is impossible to understand the purpose of RFC with content removed) and said that if there will not be any WP:CONS when this RFC is over (closed) then we will use other Wikipedia's procedures to solve this dispute at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution requests (see my edits and explanations with pinging of the related users: 1, 2).
However, user Marcelus ignores my and other users good will suggestions to solve this dispute according to Wikipedia's procedures and continues to himself (without any WP:CONS at RFC) remove the content from the disputed section ( 1, 2). So he do not follow Wikipedia's procedures for dispute resolution and clearly do not seek for a WP:CONS and aggressively provokes conflicts with other users ( WP:ICANTHEARYOU).
Moreover, Marcelus also openly expressed his personal opinion why this content describing Polish Army's atrocities against Lithuanians and Belarusians should be removed by such words: "badmouthing of Poland (...) Basically, the whole Belarusian part should be rewritten" ( 1) or "the article is suppose to be about history of coat of arms, not an excuse to spread anti-Polish propaganda" ( 2) and it raises further concerns about his aggressive actions which possibly violate the WP:NPOV and WP:NOTCENSORED.
Since "The contentious topics procedure applies to this page" (see this article's talk page template), urgent protection actions are required to this article and I believe that WP:TOPICBAN should be considered for user Marcelus because he (unlike Piotrus) do not listen to other users good will requests, explanations and want to do everything as he prefers himself (this clearly is not WP:COLLABORATE). We certainly do not need revert warring, but he is actively provoking it by ignoring RFC, so intervention by administrators is required because he ignores warnings by other users.
For a context: there also is a case at the administrators noticeboard already about Marcelus' actions in another Lithuania-related article (see: HERE) where he ignored other users requests, explanations (similar behavior in a Lithuanian topic). -- Pofka ( talk) 20:44, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
- Another Pofka attempt to ban me from the topic where he wants to push his own narrative.
- Currently, the section duplicates the content of the entry 1st Belarusian Regiment (which did not exist when the RfC was created), and is also simply off-topic, since the section should primarily describe the use of a CoA similar to the CoA of Lithuania in Belarus, but in the meantime half describes the history of the institution of the Lithuanian state, since the regiment was part of the Lithuanian army. In addition, it describes in bizarre detail the alleged (because based on a single memoir) maltreatment of Lithuanian and Belarusian symbols by the Polish military.
- The creation of the 1st Belarusian Regiment slogan has made the RfC obsolete.
- @ Pofka it is accepted custom to inform the user on whom the report is made, but I see that in your attempt to remove me from Wikipedia you are forgetting all the rules. Marcelus ( talk) 21:57, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

Change the Closer section in Major works to: Closer
Carucci's first significant body of work is first and foremost about the nuclear family but also touches upon the universal topics of intimacy, mother-daughter relationships, the female body, and mortality. Her parents, grandparents, and partner are the central players, each of whom she portrays gently but unflinchingly in her images. Her color photographs work with a definite color palette, with mesmerizing quality to the serene vivid reds and blues set against the myriad tones of bare skin. With her unique approach to making work, one that merges both planned, staged, and well-lit photographs, simultaneously with openness to the intuitive and spontaneous process, she creates images that highlight the depths of the beauties and pain of being human.

Add the section MIDLIFE Elinor’s vivid descriptions of Midlife depict the complicated, layered aspects of life that affect both men and women on an intimate level in an immersive and up-close look at these important years. Through love, generations, family, women's health, and intimacy, Midlife tells the story of getting older during the middle of life. Midlife is a universal period for us all, yet this reach narrative is absent from our cultural dialogue, and in this body of work by Carucci’s asks the viewrs to look thoroughly and to collectively see what is so often unseen.

Since the other Washington state-based Verizon IP they used is far enough outside the range that MediaWiki will not let me include it in the block, and indeed someone that mobile may find other IPs to use, the protection is needed as well.

- Comment The conflict on this page was initiated when examining a recent addition with clear BLP content. I removed
the content, sourced exclusively to a defunct website "Focus Ecuador". Further examination of recent content additions found multiple other problems with thin-sourcing of BLP content: things like Daily Beast, HuffPo contributor platform,
international business times. The editor who added these problematic areas is keen to restore them, without regard to the higher standard of sourcing required for living person content, as they have made clear on talk.

- As pointed out on the Talk page cited, big issues include a HuffPo senior reporter being removed, I didnt object to the IBTimes removal Ive done it a lot and made sure it was removed when I restored other content, and Ive repeatedly asked the editor to not bulk remove every Daily Beast citation without discussion or even reading the articles or looking at the authors which include definite experts like Kevin Poulsen. Theyve admitted removing articles without knowing it despite being told Softlemonades ( talk) 21:08, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Ive asked you to just to discuss the changes and you just revert them again and ignore WP:BRD.

- Comment This was previously proposed 4 days ago; BLP subject has edited the page again after the previous request, but stopped 3 days ago. Unclear whether he could have seen the COI warnings (see linked COI noticeboard discussion). Regardless, if allowed under WP:IAR, I support page protection, to nudge the subject into using the talk page and avoid him risking sanctions, since I believe he edited his page with rare good faith.

- Declined Even protecting the page will not make sure the IP, be they Brendan Miller or not, will use the article talk-page. I would follow what is spelled out at
WP:BLPEDIT, and repeatedly link to
WP:BIOSELF in edit summaries and talk-page warnings; even with changing IP adresses this ought to be seen after some time.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Page is subject to persistent long-term efforts by various IP or inexperienced editors to tweak this page (likely due to the figures very important role in history).

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – This is for making sure I can confirm no one removes themselves from the list. Ilovejames5 :) 10:20, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
- The protection policy requires that user subpages aren't protected
pre-emptively protected without good reason or cause
and I don't believe that a subpage is likely to be modified nor that the purpose you're intending to use it for requires it to be protected. Focus on the articles rather than making a personal list of editors you've warned. I won't decline this so other admins can have a look and see what they think. Callanecc ( talk • contribs • logs) 12:14, 5 January 2023 (UTC)- Declined
This provides enough reason for the moment, as there has been no disruption. I personally would refrain from maintaining such a list (it seems somehow to go against the "spirit" of Wikipedia, and if you intend to warn plenty of people with say changing IPs, it would quickly become rather unwieldy), and I concur with my esteemed colleague above.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Lemonaka ( talk) 14:05, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Daniel Case (
talk)
23:48, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
- Daniel Case, I fell for this first too. The reports page is at Wikipedia:Edit filter/False positives/Reports, though. The talk page of the shell around these reports should (at least theoretically) never see any reports. That said, keeping some of the disruption on this specific talk page rather than elsewhere could even be desirable.
- I guess if there's actually a need for semi-protection, those who deal with it will request or implement it.
Lemonaka has never edited the page.

Unprotection: There is a draft at Draft:Mark Wiens which in my view meets the WP:AFC acceptance criteria of having a greater than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion discussion. It is a borderline notability article, which is fine. A prior version has been deleted at AfD, but in 2017. Things have moved on with Wiens since then. I have no concerns that it may well be sent straight to AfD, since the community can decide its fate. There is a lengthy discussion at the AFC Helpdesk. It might be seen that this request is sidestepping that discussion, which is why I have linked to it - to seek to ensure that is not so, and that there can be no accusations of forum shopping. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 16:23, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This is rather slow-burning vandalism which I would normally consider managable through normal editing, but a serious BLP violation was on the page for more than 24hours, so protected.

Reason: I am requesting page protection for all NFL playoff teams until February 19, 2022, a week after the Super Bowl LVIII. Once a team loses in the playoffs it instantly leads to childish changes of the ownership in the infobox to the winning teams quarterback or stars. These childish posts are quickly screenshotted and end up on meme pages fueling more vandalism. To prevent this I am requesting page protection from IP editors as the damage of IP vandals far outweighs any value from valid IP editors over the next five weeks. I will request lowering of page protection after two weeks for defeated teams, the period of time in which these immature vandalism sprees usually ends.

Reason: Requesting protection for First Iraqi–Kurdish War and Iraqi no-fly zones conflict. These articles have recently experienced mass infobox edits (and associated edit warring) by the dynamic IP 86.141.92.231/86.137.14.137, whose edits (involving grandiose claims of "Iraqi victory") consistently fail verification and who is temporarily blocked for violating the 3RR per an AN3 report. (The IP has also engaged in edit warring and misrepresentation of sources at Iraqi invasion of Iran, but seems to have stopped after a particularly egregious instance of misrepresentation was pointed out.) Because this specific IP address will not be blocked for long and may change dynamically in short order, I am requesting extended-confirmed protection to minimize the potential for further disruptive editing.

- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to

Since we have four different requests for the same set of socks, let me elaborate on why I have declined them all. 1) At least some of the accounts reported for socking were not found to be socks. 2) We have constructive edits by IPs during the same period. 3) For most of these articles, we have two socks in ~2 months; this would be borderline for protection in any case. 4) The socks were all autoconfirmed, meaning we would need EC-protection to have stopped them; and that requires a greater threshold of disruption to be met.

("the entire set of articles whose topic relates to the Arab-Israeli conflict, broadly interpreted ("primary articles"), and edits relating to the Arab-Israeli conflict, to pages and discussions in all namespaces") The edit notice says the article partially relates to AI conflict.

- You're right, my (ancient) reading of the Arbcom decision was that the scope was specifically Israel and Palestine, but it seems to have been expanded to include all Arab-Jewish conflict worldwide. But you're also right that I can't protect part of an article, and I'm not keen to protect an entire article on an American human rights activist under the scope of these particular sanctions, as I'd be protecting a lot of material that's clearly out of scope. The sanction says that you are free to revert to enforce the ECP requirement without regard to 3RR, although it's not really a good idea to lean on that freedom too much. However, if the editor continues to be evidently only here to right great wrongs, you could ask that they be blocked. WP:ANI or WP:ANEW would be appropriate for that, depending on the circumstances. I'll also watchlist the article. Ivanvector ( Talk/ Edits) 15:48, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the pages will be automatically unprotected.
Joe Roe, if this starts up again after protection expires I'd argue that this sort of editing is overt vandalism and falls under the exemption clause of
WP:INVOLVED, but if you're worried about blowback feel free to ping me and I'll protect for longer.

Reason: This page was inundated with scammers attempting to steal cryptocurrency donations.

All future edits must be discussed on the talk page, so the page must be protected. 38.25.15.67 ( talk) 03:52, 12 January 2023 (UTC)

At any rate, this article has way too long a history of such disruption, not to mention sock-puppetry, for protection to be lifted.

Reason: On 9 January 2023, user DawnSP removed entries of two new singles released under Zhang Zhehan's name, including their references to the official lyric videos and Apple Music, on the English, Chinese and Japanese versions of his Wikipedia page. The note user DawnSP has written for their edit said "controversial content(there's no proof that the two newly released singles were recorded by Zhang Zhehan)", is introducing a conspiracy theory suggesting songs released officially on music platforms under the artist name "Zhang Zhehan" are not by Zhang himself. Hence, this song removal edit is inappropriate to do on Wikipedia. I have since restored the entries of his new singles on the English version. Previously in 2022, there had been many single purpose accounts who edited Zhang's Wikipedia page, which prompted the page to be protected until 30 December 2022. Since the lifting of the protection on his page, it is evident that single purpose accounts are returning to remove new updates about Zhang. I hereby request protection of Zhang Zhehan's Wikipedia page to prevent future vandalism from occurring. Durianpizza1991 ( talk) 00:15, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

- So, I'm not going to this. As a general rule, we want articles to be open for anyone to edit. We do restrict editing on articles when there is a lot a vandalism being done to them, or if so many bad edits are being made that we need to monitor them before they go live, but at least for now, this article is not having these problems. If you notice that problems pop up, just list it here again. I'm going to add an official declined notice so the archiving bot will remove this entry. Cheers.

Reason: Disruptive editing made by another user while correcting outdated brand page. This fast fashion brand is in the media lately and as media is quoting Wikipedia, the public is getting misled that the brand is still under LVMH when they are in fact not. I tried to update information of the actual group they are under with references but it keeps getting removed. It is not known when LVMH dropped them, but the year the other group took over will be crucial information, which is why I am citing them in the references. The other user seems to want to hide all that new information and just keep adding fluff like listing all the 37 countries the stores are located. Requesting page to be protected. Thank you. 2404:E801:2003:2430:792C:F613:F2EE:9CFE ( talk) 09:28, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for raising page protection. I had hope it will not come to this. Charles and Keith is an independent company while Valiram Group is a retailer group selling Charles and Keith products (similar to it selling other products and brands). The phrase The brand is currently under Malaysia-based retail and lifestyle group Valiram Group indicates Charles and Keith is now another brand under their group while it is not. LVMH purchased a 20% stake and subsequently their stake is sold back to the company. This is actually a content dispute and slowly becoming disruptive editing by IP editor. Thanks. Justanothersgwikieditor ( talk) 09:55, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
- I was the one who updated the LVMH reference. You can choose to paraphase if you are so offended by the particular statement. I am just pointing out they are no longer affiliated to LVMH as they have been portraying and in fact now under Valiram. That is the truth. Why are you hiding the facts that they also listed fast fashion, specializes in selling footwear? That is disruptive editing.
- This is not the venue for content dispute. I had updated the buyback by the Wongs
here but you had insisted on adding Valiram Group which simply sells C&K products. C&K is not under Valiram Group's management, unless as the other editor had said
here that it is not owned by valiram. going by this logic, coach, michael kors, versace, victoria secret, bvlgari are also owned by valiram? which you agreed to
here listing the group they are under is important and Noone is saying Valiram owns them, hence the word under but C&K is simply not under them at all. This is a case of
righting great wrongs but introducing the wrongs here.
Casting aspersions and outright lying is rather unacceptable here also. --

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Would be incredibly helpful to have page protection on this page, largely due to the nature of the events which took place. This page occasionally attracts vandals (mostly IPs), so I think PP would be helpful here to let editors get on "with the important stuff"...!. Mattdaviesfsic ( talk) 06:03, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to
justify protection. Pages are also
not protected preemptively. Pending changes could be considered but I don't think it'll actually help on this article due to the one-off nature and content of the disruptive editing.

- Not unprotected – Clearly, you are referring to the article, which is create-protected, rather than the unprotected draft, so I've changed the request accordingly. Earlier today, you submitted the draft through AFC, where it was rejected. The draft was then deleted, following your own request. Now you want to create it in main space? Sorry, but that looks like an attempt pull a fast one.

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because it was protected for almost 3 quarters of a year, disruptive editing no longer active. Solaris5296 ( talk) 17:43, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
- The protection applied here looks like a natural escalation - the last protection lasted 6 months and, clearly, issues cropped back up in short order. Note that
CRASHlock was attempted first and removed in favour of the six-month prot in 2021. —

CRASHlock, the implication being that CRASHlock was being overwhelmed. (CRASHlock does not work on pages seeing high volumes of edits.) —

Reason: Should this be protected against IP editors? I see an edit summary making reference to Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Hong Kong geography warrior, and I suspect the large number of IP edits to this article, some of which are rather dubious, are from this person? I would have already added this protection, but I am editing the article as well and would like an opinion from someone uninvolved. Thanks! -- Beland ( talk) 07:55, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent re-addition of disruptive edits by socks of Belteshazzar. See Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Belteshazzar and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Belteshazzar/Archive. Each of these pages has been disruptively edited by multiple socks of Belteshazzar more than three times recently. Most of these pages are in the Wikipedia space and would not normally see much legitimate editing from the new and anonymous users who would be covered by the semi-protection. As always, protection may inconvenience some people but I think it is worth it if we can dissuade Belteshazzar from constantly reinstating their bad edits using new IP addresses. other affected editors can always use the Talk pages to request changes. DanielRigal ( talk) 20:07, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- The edits in question only fixed problems and added useful content. By contrast,
Daniel's revert restores borderline BLP violations, since some of that wording might make it sound like the authors of the letter are partly to blame for the disastrous repercussions. If that page is protected, it should be full protection, with that last revert undone.

Unprotection: This (and alternative capitalization Super smash flash 2) should be unprotected to allow them to redirect to Super Smash Flash#Super Smash Flash 2. From there, they can probably be goldlocked again if needed. DecafPotato ( talk) 20:06, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
- Unprotected Article has been salted for nearly 15 years despite only being created twice (first time speedy deleted, second time AfD consensus to delete), no reason for ongoing protection at this point. This is probably a good example for why indef protection should be avoided in most cases. @
DecafPotato: Feel free to add a redirect. If someone replaces the article with a redirect, then it's probably worthwhile to take it to AfD to ensure consensus hasn't changed. Otherwise, I don't see any need to protect these redirects.

- HomePod (1st generation) ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: A user insists on boldly splitting HomePod to HomePod (1st generation) and HomePod (2nd generation) (with a cut&paste move, in the former case), despite having repeatedly been reverted by me and two other users. Don't think this rises to the level of a sustained behavioral issue, so I'm merely requesting page protection, so both of the latter pagess can remain redirects until there is any consensus for a split.

Temporary semi-protection: These articles are favorite targets of a prolific LTA vandal who changes IPs every time one is blocked, throughout multiple wide ranges.

Reason: Hello, I inserted a valid, referenced and related quote into a suitable section of this article (see my initial edit: 1), however user Marcelus keep removing it without providing a valid justification ( 1, 2).
In my talk page he claimed that it should be removed because "I don't really see how this separate qoute enriches article" ( 1), "We don't really need" ( 2 - by the way, he wrote it himself alone, so it should have been "I don't need"), "In my opinion, the section "Political views" comprehensively describes the issue."( 3), but these are not valid justifications and is only his own opinion which is not supported by any Wikipedia's rules. Basically, he was writing different justifications again and again.
Marcelus also claims that the quote should be completely removed because in the Mackevičius' article it is written that "Šenavičienė claims that the account faithfully reflects the thoughts of Mackevičius himself, more than his testimonies written after his imprisonment, facing the death penalty" (the reference is not accessible online, so it is not even possible to check if it is really written like that in the reference). But that's not a valid justification to remove a quote either because it does not say that his post-imprisonment letters are not reliable and should not be described. Another user Cukrakalnis also noted (see: 1) that Marcelus' actions of censoring this quote are not valid according to Wikipedia's rules, but Marcelus ignores this.
The quote he keep removing is an excerpt from a letter which Mackevičius wrote when imprisoned saying that "The Lithuanian nation is hardworking, honest, religious, so it is worth my life. I am waiting freedom of my people as it was retribution...". Another referenced sentence in the article also say that "Mackevičius' main goal is the rebirth of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth"", but it does not deny the fact that he fought for the Lithuanian nation (in his own words - his people).
Consequently, please take actions against Marcelus' provoking of revert warring in this article. We don't need to continue this and the quote must stay as it does not violate any Wikipedia's rules.
By the way, there is a case at administrators noticeboard (see: HERE) which claim that Marcelus' actions are disruptive as he was calling a notable Lithuanian scientist and minister of education Zigmas Zinkevičius as "chauvinistic pig" (see Marcelus' edits here: 1, 2). Such personal attacks against a famous Lithuanian should not be tolerated in Wikipedia. But it seems the disruption is spreading into another article - Antanas Mackevičius. Please stop this. -- Pofka ( talk) 18:29, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- Declined - content dispute. While no policy compels removal of the quote, nor does policy compel its inclusion - you will need to discuss and reach
consensus on this issue. If you do not agree with
Marcelus' rationale for removing the quote, you can request a
third opinion or try
dispute resolution. Thank you.

- @ Pofka I really hoped that after the ban was lifted, less than a month ago, you came back as a changed man. Meanwhile, you are back to your old practices. On your talk page, I wrote exactly why a quote introduced in such a way violates the WP:QUOTE rules. But you simply ignored it, in addition you wrote untruthfully that the only reason I removed the quote is my own unjustified, personal preference.
- In short:
- you put the quote in the form of a motto, not in the body of the article.
- the source is uncertain, AM's testimony was given in Polish and Russian, your quote comes from a random website in Lithuanian
- researchers who are quoted in the text claim that AM's testimony does not reflect his intentions honestly, because it was given on death row, etc. Quoting him directly, without such context, suggests otherwise
- the quote you chose is not even representative of what is contained in AM's testimony, since he gives various motivations that are partially mutually exclusive
- I wrote you all this on your
talk page, but you ignored it.

Reason: Disruption. Again. Fuck. I don't care if the semi-protection is indefinite or temporary. This shit just needs to stop. This should have been protected years ago. And now there's a second reason these IPs are disrupting too.
As before, there is the same stupid shit of IPs and new users constantly adding a clone of a main character and a car to the main character box such as here today and earlier this month refusing to go to the fucking talk page.
I am so sick of this. These people refuse to go to the fucking talk page and ignore the clearly written hidden note, in fact removing it in most cases. I am so fucking tired of this. I know I keep saying this, but I really fucking am. They need to be forced onto the fucking talk page if they refuse to read a hidden note.
However, there is also the case that at least in this first disruptive edit, as well as another edit here, and a third one here, I can already predict that people will be adding that Justin Roiland is no longer part of the show. There is now more than enough disruption to protect this page. Unnamed anon ( talk) 06:14, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

- Hello MelanieN;
- As a matter of fact; Dalida's official short film and documentary done by Paris Match and featuring her own brother is called: Dalida l’Egyptienne : les premières années. [27]
- The Wiki article of Dalida has a template stating: { This article may be written from a fan's point of view, rather than a neutral point of view. Please clean it up to conform to a higher standard of quality, and to make it neutral in tone. (September 2021) }
- The Wiki article of Dalida has a template stating: { This article may be written from a fan's point of view, rather than a neutral point of view. Please clean it up to conform to a higher standard of quality, and to make it neutral in tone. (September 2021) }
- Many Western fans have been constantly and systematically deleting her Egyptian link, even though her own family members massively document it as a huge part of her identity, till the point that she made a song calling Egypt her homeland.
- I tried to make the article as neutral as possible, and not so Western-biased, and indeed supported by sources.
- The Egyptian-born Franco-Italian singer Dalida is renowned worldwide for her top-selling musical records. But in Egypt, she was a national symbol. Before emerging on the French stage, Dalida made her debut in Egyptian cinema. In 1986, Dalida returned to her birthplace to reflect on her past and star in the film The Sixth Day by Youssef Chahine. In this talk, we will follow Dalida’s journey from Egypt to France and back again to make her last film. [28]
- With all due respect, you kept the biased edits, even though I am the one who brought many sources and an official documentary created by her own family members. Thank you.

Reason: Repeatedly vandalized by IP edits. If approved, this would be the eighth time that the talk page has been protected, with the last time being on January 6th. Since the last protection, 19 edits have been made to the talk page. 10 of them are edits that had to be reverted and the remaining 9 edits were the reverting edits. Given that "Tag: Revert" and "Tags: Revert" appear a combined 230 times in the last 500 edits with an assumed ~230 additional edits made to undo those edits, I am requesting a month or more of temporary protection. -- Super Goku V ( talk) 05:31, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Would appreciate a mix of temporary semi-protection and 6 months pending changes being applied to the page to help fend off the recent spate of vandalism that has unfortunately accompanied the abrupt exponential rise in traffic to the page in the wake of the firm's damning revelations regarding stock market manipulation by a controversial Indian tycoon. MBlaze Lightning ( talk) 09:16, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- Question: Is there enough problematic activity to make a blanket conclusion about curtailing IP editing? Seems that there has been substantial contribution by anons, and 6 months is a long time for any kind of remedy.
Fuzheado |
Talk
13:21, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- I appreciate your concerns, Fuzheado. Yes, anons have actively contributed to the page in the past 48 hours, some clearly in a constructive manner, but a disproportionate number of them have also indulged in crass vandalism. What has concerned me is that the page seem to be short on watchers to be able to fend off the same in real time, and this has lead to unenviable situations with readers stumbling across mala fide content and then taking to Twitter to highlight the same. To illustrate: edits like these stood for hours before I detected and reversed them. Heck, the latest edit, a couple hours ago, was an anon making unexplained change to the number in infobox, which remained intact despite the very telling edit summary. The firm's revelations have had a ripple effect on the Indian stock market, which is likely to continue when they open again after weekend. A temporary semi-protection will thus help deal with immediate vandalism, while a PC will bring more eyes to the article, while also concurrently allowing constructive anonymous IP contributions. If 6 months is excessive, how about giving it a trial run for a month? Regards, MBlaze Lightning ( talk) 21:28, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Reason: Even though it was explained and well sourced in the talk page, people continue to do the wrong edits.

Vestigium Leonis ( talk) 11:05, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Fuzheado |
Talk
13:21, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
- I would probably go for a 1 month semi-protection. It should be sufficient to cool this "back and forth" off. I think that BOM and The Numbers as sources are clear enough, but maybe there is a clarification needed on the talk page on how to treat releases that are split in 2 years due to for example releases in different countries in the last week of 2022 and first week of 2023.

- Not unprotected – The article already gets periodic "visits" from auto-confirmed sockpuppets. Combining this with the frequent IP disruption on the talk page, I must conclude that unprotecting the article is not a good idea.

- I appreciate your concerns,
Fuzheado. Yes, anons have actively contributed to the page in the past 48 hours, some clearly in a constructive manner, but a disproportionate number of them have also indulged in crass vandalism. What has concerned me is that the page seem to be short on watchers to be able to fend off the same in real time, and this has lead to unenviable situations with readers stumbling across mala fide content and then taking to Twitter to highlight the same. To illustrate: edits
like
these stuck around for hours before I detected and reversed them. Heck, the latest edit, a couple hours ago, was an
anon making unexplained change to the number in infobox, which remained intact despite the very telling edit summary. The firm's revelations have had a ripple effect on the Indian stock market, which is likely to continue when they open again after weekend. A temporary semi-protection will thus help deal with immediate vandalism, while a PC will bring more eyes to the article, while also concurrently allowing constructive anonymous IP contributions. If 6 months is excessive, how about giving it a trial run for a month? Regards,

The talk page consensus appears to be that this is fringe content, or at least the claims that this is fringe have gone unanswered and no responses whatsoever have been made in support of this study, while several reasons to ignore it, including a published expert opinion, have been posted. Recommend that the article be protected temporarily since this claim is making the rounds in various internet fora and leading to these unproductive unilateral edits. Things should fully quiet down in a few weeks/months once people move on. ☲Fireyair☲ ( talk) 11:43, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

Reason: Hello, due to disruption in this article in the past (mass-removal of content) it was highly edit-protected. However, user Marcelus still recently tried to himself removal a large part of a well-referenced and extensive section in this article (see: 1, 2). His actions were opposed by user Cukrakalnis ( 1, 2), but user Marcelus again tried to remove the content himself (see: 1). Then a third party user GizzyCatBella intervened and also reverted Marcelus' removal (see: 1) and said that it should be discussed first.
Consequently, a RFC was started (see: Coat of arms of Lithuania#RfC: content of the section on Belarus) to solve the dispute between users with different opinions and to reach a WP:CONS what should be done with the disputed section. The RFC is still not over (closed) yet and there is no clear WP:CONS what should be done, so no changes should be made to the disputed content.
However, another user Piotrus left his comment at RFC and tried to remove the section nearly entirely as well (see: 1).
I myself restored the content to a version which was at the start of the RFC so that anyone interested could leave their opinions at RFC (it is impossible to understand the purpose of RFC with content removed) and said that if there will not be any WP:CONS when this RFC is over (closed) then we will use other Wikipedia's procedures to solve this dispute at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution requests (see my edits and explanations with pinging of the related users: 1, 2).
However, user Marcelus ignores my and other users good will suggestions to solve this dispute according to Wikipedia's procedures and continues to himself (without any WP:CONS at RFC) remove the content from the disputed section ( 1, 2). So he do not follow Wikipedia's procedures for dispute resolution and clearly do not seek for a WP:CONS and aggressively provokes conflicts with other users ( WP:ICANTHEARYOU).
Moreover, Marcelus also openly expressed his personal opinion why this content describing Polish Army's atrocities against Lithuanians and Belarusians should be removed by such words: "badmouthing of Poland (...) Basically, the whole Belarusian part should be rewritten" ( 1) or "the article is suppose to be about history of coat of arms, not an excuse to spread anti-Polish propaganda" ( 2) and it raises further concerns about his aggressive actions which possibly violate the WP:NPOV and WP:NOTCENSORED.
Since "The contentious topics procedure applies to this page" (see this article's talk page template), urgent protection actions are required to this article and I believe that WP:TOPICBAN should be considered for user Marcelus because he (unlike Piotrus) do not listen to other users good will requests, explanations and want to do everything as he prefers himself (this clearly is not WP:COLLABORATE). We certainly do not need revert warring, but he is actively provoking it by ignoring RFC, so intervention by administrators is required because he ignores warnings by other users.
For a context: there also is a case at the administrators noticeboard already about Marcelus' actions in another Lithuania-related article (see: HERE) where he ignored other users requests, explanations (similar behavior in a Lithuanian topic). -- Pofka ( talk) 20:44, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
- Another Pofka attempt to ban me from the topic where he wants to push his own narrative.
- Currently, the section duplicates the content of the entry 1st Belarusian Regiment (which did not exist when the RfC was created), and is also simply off-topic, since the section should primarily describe the use of a CoA similar to the CoA of Lithuania in Belarus, but in the meantime half describes the history of the institution of the Lithuanian state, since the regiment was part of the Lithuanian army. In addition, it describes in bizarre detail the alleged (because based on a single memoir) maltreatment of Lithuanian and Belarusian symbols by the Polish military.
- The creation of the 1st Belarusian Regiment slogan has made the RfC obsolete.
- @ Pofka it is accepted custom to inform the user on whom the report is made, but I see that in your attempt to remove me from Wikipedia you are forgetting all the rules. Marcelus ( talk) 21:57, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
