Shivaji

Reason: Disruptive editing on the title of Shivaji, without discussing it on the talk page. Frequent edit warring and suspecting meatpuppetry. Imperial [AFCND] 10:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC) reply

The article has been under indefinite semi-protection for about five years now. It does not appear to me that going to ECP would make much of a difference as many contributors already have that user right. The only thing I could imagine doing that could force more talk page discussion would be imposing 1RR. Would you be amenable to that? (I have put a long-overdue CTOPS notice on the talk page). Daniel Case ( talk) 20:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC) reply
I don't have a strong opinion, but looking at edits from the last 2 weeks, 3 out of 8 users involved in the dispute over titles are not EC so ECP probably would improve the situation over the long run. I suspect that even if EC editors reach consensus, the title dispute will continue. Perhaps full protection for a week or two followed by indefinite ECP? Daniel Quinlan ( talk) 22:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Soad Hosny

Reason: Persistent disruptive editings and removal of sources by many "new" accounts and IPs. Not a single edit by that recent attack on the page is with sources, they appear to be teamed up. Fragrant Peony ( talk) 22:10, 27 April 2024 (UTC) reply

G13 requires that the page hasn't been edited by a human in >6 months. It will potentially be eligible in mid-May. -- Euryalus ( talk) 23:06, 27 April 2024 (UTC) reply
@ Euryalus But afaict now it has been recently edited by humans. I'll try xfd. Gråbergs Gråa Sång ( talk) 07:52, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply
@ Gråbergs Gråa Sång: the nomination for speedy deletion doesn't reset the clock for a G13, which is still ticking from when the draft was last edited by its creator back in November 2023. It's clearly going nowhere as an article so no objection to an Xfd, but imho because speedy deletion is single-determiner the criteria are quite strict for good reason. :) -- Euryalus ( talk) 08:24, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Thanks, didn't now that. I looked at PROD, but no. The Xfd [1] will be mostly harmless. Gråbergs Gråa Sång ( talk) 08:31, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply
It will indeed. Deleted already per IAR. -- Euryalus ( talk) 08:59, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent addition of unreliable sources to justify content that has been repeatedly removed. Probably needs to be longer protection. Trailblazer101 ( talk) 23:25, 27 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Taylor Swift

Reason: Why isn't this page ECP? I think it should be ECP because it is prone to edit warring from Autoconfirmed accounts, and it is a high traffic article 125.160.114.232 ( talk) 23:47, 27 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Criticism of Amnesty International

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – WP:A/I/PIA. nableezy - 00:16, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Hi, Nableezy Deletes every time the paragraph that Amnesty claimed that Israel imprisoned a Palestinian writer while he was a terrorist who murdered and kidnapped an Israeli soldier. He supports violence according to his profile so he doesn't want (or can) understand why this is a problem. 84.110.218.178 ( talk) 08:23, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply

Let's not forget - this is a page about *criticism of Amnesty*, and the paragraph is about Israel. So why he deleted it? 84.110.218.178 ( talk) 08:29, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply
Not done for now. This is too heavy handed to invoke WP:PIA WP:ECR, even for related content protection with an expiration. Last PIA edit was Nov 2023, and seeing as this IP editor has now been told about the WP:XC tenure requirement for that WP:CTOP area, that incident is probably done. If this page experiences another PIA-related issue by a non-tenured user in 2024, feel free to relist. El_C 11:33, 28 April 2024 (UTC) reply
