Indefinite semi-protection: IPs and new editors have been messing with the page layout, which really bugs AnomieBOT, who maintains the page. I can't really see a reason for a non-autoconfirmed editor to request bot approval, either. Theopolisme ( talk) 17:00, 1 August 2013 (UTC)
Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Attempted improvements to article seem to face a brickwall with a user who seems to exude "ownership" over this article and has no sense of compromise or conversation that does not appeal to their own sense of what it ought to be. The introduction needs to be broken into two parts and the second (and overly-long) paragraph is not an introduction to the article's content but subject matter on its own and ought to be in an appropriate headed section.

Full Protection' This page is currently being linked by an advertisement posted at the top of all Wikipedia pages. It was recently edited into a spam article.

- The problem is that to sign up for the Visual Editor newsletter you have to edit the page. I'm very hesitant to fully protect it, since that would stop people from signing up. I'm not sure if semi-protection would be advisable, since there is a good reason for new users to be editing it, although they're a small portion of the newsletter signups at this point. Thoughts, anyone?

They are in effect putting a biography as the reference is to their own wewbsite. Other longer existing fan groups exist, but are NOT included on this page - one of them has annual award yet is NOT included on the page. therefore any mention of the sky blues trust is a biography and breaks Wikipedia rules on biography.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Already for a long time I have infrequent visits of Korean IP's and brand new accounts vandalising my user page and talk page, here and on the Dutch Wikipedia.

I would need to see some consensus on the talk page, or a lot more vandalism, before unilaterally taking administrative action for such a visible page. Feel free to get a second opinion now, or in a week.

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism. An I.P has heavily edited the article about Persekam Metro FC, an Indonesian football club. This came to light when he suggested that Jim Magilton had been appointed their manager, despite his recent appointment as Technical Director to the Irish FA. I see that the same IP has been making similar edits to the club article on Indonesian Wikipedia. As most of the edits are dubious to say the least, can this article be protected?

They were all given warnings but seemingly doesn't stop. There actions shows that they treat vandalism as a form of hobby (There is no week that they don't vandalize the articles).

Indefinite sem-protection: This is a page plagued with a lot of issues. Primarily it has been a playground for some anonymous editor to insert and re-insert a big graft of WP:SYNTH, primarily without reference. I've repeatedly asked the anonymous editor to take it to the talk page, but they continue to revert, claiming "vandalism". This isn't a content dispute; this is about masses of texts without reference or synthesized references. It would appear that some anonymous user greatly values pushing their personal theories. There's an ongoing vote to just make it redirect to Dwarf (Germanic mythology). I request that the page gets protected until the vote is resolved. :bloodofox: ( talk) 23:46, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: IP editors from at least two different addresses are repeatedly adding a statement that Smith will substitute for Tony Stewart to the article. While this is in fact the most likely outcome, it has not been confirmed (indeed, it has been stated that the team is still considering candidates for the substitution). As there have been no other IP edits to the article in nearly two months, I believe that semi-protection for a week, with it being lifted if a decision is made (and reported in RS) sooner, would be appropriate here.

User:Dwaipayanc has edit warred to preserve a ton of problematic material, in direct violation of Wikipedia policy, and then this user recruited another editor to continue the edit war in his/her absence. This second editor then continued the edit war. Who is this second editor? None other than the person who has requested page protection. No effort has been made by

- Well, in the talk page of the article, I already stated that yes, there are many statements in the article needing references. Lets tag those with citation needed, then give a reasonable time for those to be addressed, and then if not addressed, lets get those deleted. That's a reasonable approach for non-BLP articles, and statements that are not blatant hoax or vandalism. But AfricaTanz did not like that approach. Even though we mentioned
WP:V and
WP:PRESERVE and
WP:BRD, he continues to repeatedly remove material (well, in hindsight, some of those material do need to be removed, but obviously not all, or, not as a blanket deletion). It's probably ok to protect he page, to avoid such warring, and also to let th regular editors provide references.--

You have done this despite your self-admitted view that some of the material needs to be removed. You also have refused to add even one source when reinserting the material. You have done no editing whatsoever except add a very limited number of citation-needed tags. When you didn't have time to continue your efforts, you recruited someone else as your replacement and was incivil about me to boot. This replacement did exactly what you wanted and then requested page protection to preserve what the two of you have done. AfricaTanz ( talk) 06:59, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – People - myself included - have been going back and forth about whether or not it is appropriate to include highly negative information about a living person sourced to tabloids in their biog. Temporary protection would force people to discuss whether or not there is actually a BLP issue, instead of just trying to editwar over it. (I know it's not normal to request a freeze at a particular version, but since there are WP:BLP concerns and BLP matters are normally left out until consensus is established to include them, I would highly suggest freezing the article at the stubbified version.).

- Note: the editor in question is trying to insert his religious opinions at various articles. In reference to this article, various sources indicate 538 or 537 for the arrival of the Jews in their homeland. However, a comparison of Josephus and Ezra puts the return in 538. In any case, there is certainly no reason at all for dogmatically insisting on 537 (which is also unsourced at

The Biggest Loser Australia: Couples 2 ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Can we protect this article for at least 6 months? Those IPs from Israel are only jumping from non-protected The Biggest Loser article to another non-protected The Biggest Loser article. They keep on using different IPs, giving them warnings are of no use. Believe me. I have been monitoring them since last year. The Wikipedia Community has done nothing to stop them, except for Drmies who was responsible for protecting these vandalized pages for 6 months or indefinitely. I tried once to bring this up once to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents, but no one bothered to answer.
Please hear my call. Short protection won't help. If we can protect other articles (except for the articles in the US version since almost all are being monitored by other users), I think we can stop them. If we can protect all the other articles now, we can't stop or at least halt their activity.

Temporary full protection. Repeated insertion of unsourced content by recently autoconfirmed users. Article has been semiprotected nine times in less than two years. Clearly, this isn't working, and neither would pending changes. However, the most recent spate of problem edits began this month and is related to a flurry of tabloid-type media reports which likely will be limited in duration, so a few weeks of full may well do the trick.

Pending-changes protected I've put a temporary pending changes on as well. I don't see why this won't work assuming that the reviewers don't approve a statement like that without a source. I'd much rather try this first than fully protect, even for a short while. The semi protection is still on, so the edits should only be coming from accounts. Obviously if accounts persist then we can take action against them as individuals.

Indefinite full protection: The problem with this template is noted here: Template_talk:Upgradestiki#Changing_something. Everyone thinks the section is on their talk, but really it's in the template; 6 mistaken edits in 12 hours. If I could go back in time, I wouldn't have included the section in the template, but would have the included a new section along with template when used on the talk pages. But I think rather than going back and disturbing everyone's talk pages again with the change, it would be kinder just to fully protect page so that at least non-admins don't continue the mistake.

Semi-protection: This is a WP:BLP problem. An anonymous editor roaming through a group of TMobile United Kingdom IP addresses is constantly re-inserting material without a source. I've tried discussing this on the talk page but the anon refuses to engage in a discussion. Each IP address is different but they're all coming from the same geographic location and same ISP.

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. WP:ROUGH#Criteria_for_semi-protection says that, on average, only 5% of edits on Wikipedia are vandalism. But here, over the past few years, far more than 5% of IP edits to this page have been problematic. IPs have indulged in three harmful acts: vandalism, spamming, and COI editing. Since the problem began years ago, please semi-protect for at least a couple of years. P.S. The page also cites zero sources. I wonder if the subject is actually notable. Cheers, — Unforgettableid ( talk) 02:29, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Just noticed this page after it was brought to WP:BLPN - you could fill a book with the amount of IP vandalism and unsourced statements going on here.

Unprotection: The article has been semi-protected since August of 2008, except when it was part of the Pending Changes trial. In its protected form, it does not seem to have had any recent major disputes or edit warring. I think an unprotection on a trial basis is warranted; indefinite protection should be lifted from time to time to gauge whether protection is still necessary, and it seems to me that after five years and with no particular reason to indicate it is still required, the time is ripe.

Pending changes: I requested protection a few days ago when one established editor kept removing the "Controversy" section from the article. Since then, at least two other accounts (which look to be new) have removed the section. Removal of the section is under discussion on the talk page, where there doesn't appear to be a consensus. — rybec 20:38, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Temporary full protection - Two editors duking it out deleting each other's edits, not talking on the the talk page, and filing complaints about each other on AN/I. Full protection to get them talking to each other to work out some compromises -- there's nothing so egregiously bad about either's version of the article that it will be a disservice to our readers. Once the protection runs out, if they start up again, some attention-getting blocks might be a good idea. Beyond My Ken ( talk) 21:35, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: This article is currently getting a lot of attention from zealous editors who wish to insert spoiler warnings, but who may not yet be privy to WP:SPOILER or Wikipedia's WP:NOTCENSORED policy. It's not epidemic, but I'm requesting a temporary block of 2 weeks or so against IP editors and non-autoconfirmed users, assuming that's a reasonable request in this case.

After several edits to-ing and fro-ing, mainly by IPs, I reverted to most recent 'protected' version, which was promptly changed by another IP that (thankfully!) has just been reverted by by another editor.

Temporary semi-protection Repeated vandalism from IP users [41] [42] [43] [44] [45] [46] and one non-autoconfirmed account [47], due to controversies during the current high-profile England–Australia cricket series, which will continue until 17 September. I suggest semi-protection until February 2014, as England are about to travel to Australia for a return series.
