This is a new and low traffic page, but has seen its fair share of disruptive editing from fans of the Hearts of Iron mod The New Order: Last Days Of Europe, which is where Taboritsky became known in the English speaking world. Even the creators of the mod have told people to knock it off. Because this is a fairly niche page, this should be an appropriate level of protection.

I don't think many people know who Sergey Taboritsky was or visit his page often. Unfortunately, the majority of traffic to this page are players of The New Order: Last Days of Europe. This is an Axis Victory mod for the WW2 strategy game Hearts of Iron IV, where Taboritsky is a mentally ill warlord in Nazi-ravaged Russia and is called "funny clockman" by the mod's fanbase, despite his genocidal policies being very unfunny. Personally, I do play Hearts of Iron IV and this mod. What I care about is that this page is almost constantly vandalized by less mature fans of TNO, who are prone to deleting his biography and putting references to "funny clockman" and "Russia must be pure for Alexei" (the hemophiliac heir to Nikolai II, last Tsar of Russia, whom he believes to be alive). The only way to stop this vandalism is to restrict editing on this page, because most of the culprits just create accounts to write spam and vandalize pages of individuals present in TNO.

I have a picture which has Taboritsky facing right, facing forward, and facing forward again with a coat and a fedora. I was wondering if it was right to add this picture to the article? Abetlane ( talk) 02:18, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
I've noticed that there is a large increase of people editing the page due to the mod: "The New Order - Last Days of Europe". I'm not 100% sure, but do you think that it is notable enough?
Also, I think Taboritsky should be semi-protected or pending changes due to vandalism. Senor0001 ( talk) 19:01, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
TNO does not follow notability guidelines. This page should go under semi-protected or pending changes due to consistent vandalism. -- Charlesthe50th, Talk 01:13, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
I think adding a section about this man appearing in popular culture, as TNO is the reason why people know this character, isn't vandalism and is sort of important. However, I have tried to do it in a different section and specifying it is fiction, adding TNO wiki as source, but it was deleted for "non reliable sources". What would be a reliable source then? It is a man that has been characterized as a fictional version in a mod of a videogame, what else do you want? Fernitetas ( talk) 11:23, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
