Full protection: This was reduced from full protection to template protection in an attempt to allow RexxS to edit it, which failed due to it being used on the main page. That reason no longer applies since they are now an admin, and the only effect of the page not being full-protected given that it is used on the main page is to create false "Edit" links for template editors. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:54, 3 November 2019 (UTC) reply

  • Comment: @ Pppery: You're quite right and the issues for me no longer exist. The other alternative that we discussed would be to fork a version of the module purely for use on the main page. Both the main page's module transclusions and this module have been very stable for a considerable time, so there's little concern over updates to the module. It would only be worth doing, however, if other template editors wanted to be involved in maintaining this module. and I suspect that is not the case. Would you like me to raise the protection level of this module to full protection now? If anybody finds a reason not to, it's a simple job to revert that action.

Indefinite semi-protection or full protection: Yesterday in my round of NPR I noticed Kingshow2150 had been constantly reverting a redirect that has been in place since January 3, 2019. This user's edit pattern has been consistent since October 13, 2019 and despite a 24 hour block on October 27, 2019 the user never quits. The user also fails to add or fix the article. After I restored the redirect leaving valid reasons as to why it should remain in my edit summary I left a single warning on the user's talk page with a personal note guiding the user to AFC then I requested temporary extended confirmed protection and was denied. Now an IP address has followed in the same pattern as Kingshow2150 in reverting the redirect but took it one step further and removed the article maintenance tags that were present before I restored the revert yesterday. I really don't want to waste the community's time taking this to AFD or starting a sockpuppet case just for an IP edit and I'm not sure what to do here. Alucard 16 ❯❯❯ chat? 05:21, 8 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. @ Alucard 16: Rather than edit war over the redirect, allow the article to be created and send it to AFD. If it is clear-cut a case as you say then there should be no issues, as the link can then be set back to a redirect and protected to enforce the AFD decision, but imposing protection at this point to resolve a content dispute without checking the viability of the article fairly would not be appropriate.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP users are contributing with updates to the poll result tables in this article, but are not conforming to the manual of style, as you can see for yourself from the wrecked table layout. I have repeatedly tried to address this, and asked that the users in question try to avoid messing up the article's content as it is becoming tiresome to have to correct their mistakes on a regular basis. It seems as though these IP users do not know how to properly handle the wiki code for tables. And so it is quite frustrating not to be able to contact these contributors properly, since they are only IP users, and I would therefore like to request for the page to be semi-protected. If they so wish they can then set up accounts so that this persistent issue can be addressed, and then they can resume their contribution. Μαρκος Δ 01:09, 8 November 2019 (UTC) reply

@ Nableezy: in regards to you creating the actual edit notice: I realize you've grown accustomed to doing this (probably because your 500-30 submissions are almost always accepted here), and you're just trying to lighten our load by doing so, but it would probably be better if you let an admin create it. Because you are effectively imposing 1RR before that DS has been approved by the given admin. Anyway, Done as per usual. El_C 23:22, 7 November 2019 (UTC) reply
I was given the page mover permission for that explicit purpose, and my understanding, at least until the current case is decided, is that what is required for 1RR is the edit-notice, not the extended-confirmed protection. nableezy - 00:32, 8 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – One of the most vandalised (used for persistent IP-spamming due to its huge readership, per talk page stats) on Wikipedia. It is a waste of editor time consistently reverting IP pending protection edits - we should move this to indefinite protection. Britishfinance ( talk) 11:43, 9 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. In the last few days, there haven't been that many edits to revert. The article has only been semi-protected once. For those reasons, I'm going with a temporary semi-protection, for now. –  Muboshgu ( talk) 17:20, 9 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Muboshgu, there is an IP edit to revert almost every second day - day-in-day-out. Look at October alone - there are 39 reversions of different IP vandalism. That is only October - it is the same level in September, August etc. (ever since I overhauled this article earlier in 2019) ...... That is at the extreme end of protection requirement. It is a poor use of time for editors to be reverting this, surely? I think this article needs longer-term autoconfirmed protection – at least 12 months, Britishfinance ( talk) 17:54, 9 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Comment: @ Britishfinance: IMO Muboshgu’s month of semi-protection was generous. The number of edits needing to be reverted is borderline for semi-protection; many would say that the existing PC protection is enough. Please see WP:Protection policy; articles are protected only just enough to prevent disruption, while allowing constructive editing, consistent with our motto as "The Free Encyclopedia Anyone Can Edit".

This page has attracted scrutiny beyond the necessary, in my opinion, and photos have been deleted for no good reason - not merely removed from the article, but actual files have been deleted - either by users or bots, repeatedly. I continually do my best to adhere to copyright legalities and improve upon that and make sure all the licensing technicalities are taken care of. Dekanova is the first-ever World All-Around Champion in the sport of Artistic Gymnastics and I see absolutely no reason why, in addition to a biographic picture, there should also be *at least* one photo illustrating her ability. Biographical pages of other top gymnasts ( Larisa Latynina, Nadia Comaneci, Simone Biles ) have images in addition to their biographical portrait, so I see absolutely no reason why this should also not be the case for Dekanova. Bots shouldn't be allowed to deface this page in an automated fashion. Thank you for your attention. Miloluvr ( talk) 07:29, 9 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Note: I declined the protection some days ago, and would decline it again; IP vandalism every day is simply a misrepresentation. Since when? Adding a birth date without source is not vandalism, but at worst that: adding something which is not sourced, and at best a good faith attempt to add lacking information. Disruption so far is manageable without having to resort to protection. Lectonar ( talk) 08:53, 8 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Since he became the leader of ISIS, 7 days ago. There has been over 10 vandalism's, so I don't know why Lectonar has a tendency unlike other administrators to not to protect pages easily, but in my opinion this is very disruptive to Wikipedia. The page is recently getting a lot of views due to being in the news, and by checking the history, I see the vandalism's sometimes go for an hour before being reverted, meaning a lot users are reading the vandalism's. The simple solution to this is page protection, which most admins would have quickly done but I suppose you have a reason in mind for not protecting the page? KasimMejia ( talk) 10:32, 8 November 2019 (UTC) reply
10 instances of vandalism over a week is not a lot. And looking at the edits you're describing as vandalism, most of them appear to be good-faith attempts to improve the article. Edits that you may not agree with are not automatically vandalism. I agree with Lectonar, at this point in time there is no justification for protecting the article.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Continued unverified date changes by IPv6 users. It's apparent that the IPv6 user (who uses multiple IPv6 addresses that start with 2a02:2f08) will not relent on doing these same exact date changes that they seem unable to back up with a reliable source, and will continue to use the (ineffective) tactic of false edit reasons in hopes of misleading and convincing editors to ignore these edits. Because there have been several instances of this going on for a period of several months now with no signs of stopping, it should be clear that the most effective way to prevent these edits from happening again would be to semi-protect the article indefinitely. – WPA ( talk) 03:06, 10 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Temporary Semi-protection: Persistent disruption by IPs of late. The issue from them is over a section of information relating to something concerning a controversial matter that occurred, relevant to the series of the TV programme the article is about, that happened outside the programme during its broadcast. One such IP put forward this reason: "Took out stuff that Promotes hate to Lottie Lion, who is suffering from violent abuse andFake content". The reason given was absurd, given that the information was neutral in tone, delved into the controversy from an encyclopedic viewpoint, and has in no way anything to suggest that it is either fake or promotes hate against someone. To suggest such a reason would mean that anyone could suggest that to remove content they don't approve of against any figure they like such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Boris Johnson, Nigel Farage, and so forth.

Administrators may apply indefinite extended confirmed protection at any time to any page in the conflict area at their discretion, whether or not there has been disruptive editing on the page. There is a general consensus that administrators should neither apply ECP to pages with only a tenuous link to the conflict nor seek out articles in this topic area to protect pre-emptively.

The article needs this level of protection to act as a deterrent to this behaviour.

Semi-protection. An IP user has been consistently adding a great deal of editorial commentary and biased statements against this subject. As the talk page indicates, I've recently made an attempt at a compromise with my edits, but he simply reverted them and restored his biased POV and shows no interest in working today a WP:CONSENSUS. His edits violate WP:NOR, WP:NPOV, WP:LIBEL, WP:BLP, WP:WEASEL and WP:V, among others. Temporary semi-protection was granted in response to this problem a few months ago and it briefly helped, so requesting a longer period this time around. — Hun ter Ka hn 01:43, 13 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – To avoid any vandalized and unverified edits regarding to NBA's new free-to-air rights to CNN Philippines from anonymous and unregistered users. This will only be temporary (p.s. maybe for 2 to 3 weeks or at least a month).

(P.S. I have to explain more about this one besides my initial reason: even though no unregistered users are currently editing this article, it would be best to put semi-protection even though there might be no activity with this article. This will avoid any possible vandalisms or unverified information coming from unregistered users (or from IP addresses) even though there is no activity with it, as been mentioned above.)

Temporary Semi-protection: High level of IPs removing and adding information on this actor being a pornographic actor, which might be some kind of vandalism, but could be some kind of coordinated attack on a living person. I could not verify that he is or is not a porno-graphical actor, but the information is always added without a source and the edits are also reverted by different IPs. This suggests that there is at least disagreement over the information. There has been 23 revisions to the page in less than 14 hours, all of which are adding the information or reverting the addition of the information. I would propose it needs to be protected, as the information, which is possibly controversial, has never been sourced and the edits are from multiple IPs. Temporary for now, as protection will allow the IPs to make edit requests which allows the sources provided to be checked and protection will possibly discourage the edits if they are just vandalism.

User previously was using the User:73.213.196.34 IP/Anon account, but is now using the User:D0h84 sign-in account. I suspect it is the same user based on behavioral and editing aspects.

Temporary semi-protection: Disruptive IP vandalism has resumed following the end of the previous, four-day semi-protection. Behavior is same as before - removal of content that is well referenced and neutral, without explanation other than personal opinion. An additional part of the vandalism included false information being added in per personal opinion. The most recent included a personal attack against myself. I warned the IP twice not to resume their behavior - an editor who, despite the differing IPs they were assigned, could be identified by the behavior of their edits - but it fell on deaf ears. Blocking won't stop this. I URGE any admin to put this into semi-protection until at least the end of January 2020. It's the only way to discourage them; blocking the IP won't achieve anything if the editor can resume with another IP assigned to them. GUtt01 ( talk) 08:59, 17 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Temporary extended-confirmed The last week has just been nuts with a group of several users adding promotional, unsourced, and other encyclopedic content.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Once again, the same unregistered individual whose IPv6 addresses begins with 2A02:2F08 continues to change the original air dates without providing a reliable source or a proper explanation to justify their edits, and the one reliable source that is used on the article for original air dates (involving TVGuide.com) doesn't even prove their edits for them. I also could not find any reliable sources on my accord to prove that the episode in question ("Toying with Jenny / Teenage Mutant Ninja Troubles") aired on the date they keep changing it to (September 21, 2005, instead of the actual original air date of September 9, 2005), so as far as I could tell, their changes are false and unjustified.

@ Primefac:Well, I am not sure what the big highlighted section is and the reason why my name appears in the protection log is because it is one of the userboxen whose protection I lowered from full to template because it isn't so widely employed as to justify full protection.

Indefinite pending changes protection or semi-protection: Prone to vandalism, particularly from IP users, with two IP users vandalizing the page five times today. Vulnerable to users adding in their own names, or the names of their favorite celebrities. It also doesn't make sense that this page, which sees more traffic and is edited more frequently, is unprotected, while its less-edited and less-viewed counterpart has pending changes protection. Strongly suggest at least matching the two pages' protection levels, if not directly adding semi-protection onto Time 100. Bobbychan193 ( talk) 07:52, 19 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Unprotect or at least reduce to minimal protection like autoconfirmed. Random userspace pages like this should not be full-protected, or it prevents WP:GNOMEs doing basic maintenance like (in this case) changing Category:User essays to the more specific Category:User essays about arbitration (i.e., add parameter to top template: {{User essay|interprets=the [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Arbitration Committee|RfC/ArbCom]] and [[Wikipedia:Devolution]] pages|cat=User essays about arbitration}}).  —  SMcCandlish ¢ 😼  07:57, 20 November 2019 (UTC) reply

  • I wasn't going to say anything since I figure that everyone is entitled to a lapse in judgment at times. But it's likely this request is in conjunction with SmcCandlish running around and tagging all the ACE2019 voter guides and other such templates and pages as essays. Unless there's been some sort of RfC saying this should be done, I'd think that these should all be reverted. It's not been done in the past, and without community consensus, I don't think it should be done now. Taking it on himself to perform such editing in a middle-of-the-night unilateral editing spree is disruptive. I considered blocking, but he is an established editor, and considering all the anger that's been floating around the project these last few months, I just didn't want to escalate things - but it appears the SmcCandlish insists on escalating them. I think perhaps a post to one of the ... *sigh* ... drama boards is in order. — Ched ( talk) 12:03, 20 November 2019 (UTC) reply

~ ToBeFree, I really don't see that full protection is needed/helpful in this case. What we have here is a disruptive IP hopper that has been reverted and/or warned by TrueHeartSusie3, Aboideau, Beauty School Dropout, Jip Orlando, Mattythewhite, Nnadigoodluck, and myself. Do you think this IP is going to take the time to discuss this matter on the article's talk page? All full protection does in this case is punish legitimate editors. Flyer22 Reborn ( talk) 00:37, 22 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Flyer22 Reborn, I see the point, but administrators should explicitly not use semi-protection in edit wars involving autoconfirmed editors. The talk page has not been edited since 2019-05-06; a relevant policy section may be WP:AVOIDEDITWAR. As the protection request seems to be valid, I hopefully chose a policy-compliant action that comes closest-possible to your request. ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 00:43, 22 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Flyer22 Reborn, sorry, you're correct. Point 3 under "Guidance for administrators" at WP:SEMI does include edit warring and thus confirms the validity of your original request. You had also specified this reason in your request. Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected.
May I kindly request adding a section to the talk page nevertheless? After all, the idea behind protecting this page is enforcing proper discussion of what seems to be a large content dispute over a small detail. ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 00:55, 22 November 2019 (UTC) reply
~ ToBeFree, thanks for changing the protection. Before my Internet connection started acting up, I was in the process of stating the following: "This is not some edit war between autoconfirmed editors. It is a disruptive IP being reverted by multiple autoconfirmed editors. This is not some edit war case where the article should be full-protected as if legitimate discussion will be had. There's really nothing to debate. The IP is being disruptive, plain and simple. Administrators semi-protect in cases like these all the time. See, for example, Ferret's semi-protection applications to the Slut-shaming article. The IP doesn't care what consensus there is on this matter. Going by all the times the IP hopper has been reverted, the consensus is already clear. An editor can take this issue to the article's talk page, but that IP hopper is not going to show up there to argue anything. And, in this case, when your full-protection wears off and the IP hopper continues where they left off, with several more editors reverting, is the article to be full-protected for a week again? So the article gets to be held hostage by this IP hopper? One week of full-protection is too long for this case either way. I see this as a case where an admin should temporarily (for two days or more) semi-protect the article to stop the disruption and hopefully get the IP hopper to stop making this same edit over and over again. The multiple reverts haven't discouraged the IP. Not being able to edit the article might, like it has for other IPs who've done similar at other articles. I might consult a different admin about this. No need to ping me, by the way."
Regarding the talk page suggestion in your latest post, I don't see that it will help per my above latest paragraph. Flyer22 Reborn ( talk) 01:17, 22 November 2019 (UTC) reply
I agree, and I apologize for the incorrect response. In the future, I will use semi-protection to deal with similar cases and have corrected an identical mistake above. Thank you very much for pointing this out, and for the detailed, helpful advice. ~ ToBeFree ( talk) 01:22, 22 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Temporary Semi-protection: There has been a consistent level of IP disruption on the article since the last protection period, and unfortunately a number of the edits that have been made have included personal attacks by IPs - possibility is that they are the same person given different IPs to use to make edits. One of these edits claimed I "owned" the article's page, which is not the case, as I actually revert anything that is not constructive, helpful, or seems aimed at removing good, referenced information that is notable for the article; I know for a fact, that some of the disruptive edits that have occurred on the article have taken place whilst the programme in question is in broadcast for this respective series, and seem adamant to voice personal opinion that is biased and not encyclopedic - in other words, they want to disregard anything that seems bad for a person, when the information is being neutral in tone, and doesn't promote anything bad against the person partaking in the programme. As the previous request I made didn't heed what I stated before - giving it three-day protection, when it had already received four-day protection and did nothing to discourage the behaviour - I really must insist, out of opinion, that an admin must make it much longer. At least until the month after the programme's conclusion, which would be January 2020. GUtt01 ( talk) 16:05, 23 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page has been (temporarily semi) protected three times in the past year.

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Talkpage discussion at Talk:Sharyl Attkisson related to content dispute and what to include at the "Anti-vaccine reporting" section per WP:BLP is the subject of a 30-day RfC and is showing no signs of forming a strong consensus one way or the other. So, with the full page protection expiring in less than 4 days, I thought it prudent to ask for an extension of the temporary full protection, to, say, December 25, 2019, at which point it would be automatically unprotected.

El C, True...so you want to see how that plays out before deciding if 0RR is needed. With 1RR sanctions, each editor would still be entitled to 1 good faith reversion of another editor's edit, right? Thus, my earlier concern on the talkpage with respect to first-mover advantage is probably moot/not present. That said, if the editors on both sides resume reversions within the bounds of 1RR, then that would be an indication that the 1RR isn't working? Doug Mehus T· C 17:54, 22 November 2019 (UTC) reply
I really have to see how things play out before can evaluate particulars.

Declined - First of all, did you mean to refer to the article itself or the article's talk page? The article does not need a change to its protection. If the edit requests on the article's talk page have no merit, remove them. If the edit requests become blatant in regards to disruption or trolling, and if the rate of their creation becomes significantly high, file another report here and we'll take a look then. Administrators will only apply indefinite full protection to an article or page in extremely rare, unique, or severe circumstances; indefinite full protection should be completely avoided unless no other option is available and its use to stop disruption is absolutely imperative. ~Oshwah~ (talk) (contribs) 20:20, 24 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Requesting temporary full protection again at Spider-Man: Far From Home. Administrator BD2412 previously locked it down for approx. 3 business days; however, at Talk:Spider-Man: Far From Home#Edit discussion for Plot wording where I initiated a discussion, none of the involved editors of that page took me up on my offer to discuss their content dispute. I think that what needs to happen is an administrator needs to lock the page down for, say, 2 weeks, and then notify (via Twinkle or manually) the recent regular page editors (several extendedconfirmed users and IP users; not me, though, since my involvement in that page was in requesting page protection following my adding a hatnote to "The Blip" dab page following an RfD I closed) via their talkpages that they need to discuss their content dispute per WP:BRD.

There's also another issue where an IP address keeps removing correct information against sources and consensus. They've been blocked before but they keep changing their IP addresses using VPN or something. Starforce13 20:43, 25 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Starforce13, Yeah, I have seen some good information be added by IP editors and non-IP editors, which has been reverted despite no recent consensus having taken place. I have also seen nonsense or likely nonsense be reverted. At the end of the day, the editors, registered and IP, need to take it to the talkpages rather than just dismissing every possible addition out of hand, I think. After all, consensus is not permanent and can change. Doug Mehus T· C 00:47, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Dmehus, if you look over the last 24 hours, there's been over 30 reverts (+/-57 bytes) between that sockpuppet IP and over a dozen different registered users. All the registered users are on the same page with the consensus. When invited to talks, the IP never participates. Instead, they leave death threats and things like this to multiple users as they did last time before they were blocked. So, I think protecting the page is the only way to stabilize the page. Starforce13 01:21, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Starforce13, Thanks. I didn't see that. Still, I was concerned that another, presumably unrelated IP user's, was reverted, with no discussion. This IP user does not appear to be constructive, but other IP users' edits may be and I hope there is not a bias against IP user editors. I have seen some very good edits by IP users on unrelated articles. Doug Mehus T· C 01:33, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Dmehus. Of course, a lot of IPs have good edits. But if there's one relentless bad actor, the only way to calm things down is to protect the page. The "blip" one you cited, seems like a normal regular edit; and the editor after the IP explained their reasoning as they would have done to any other user. None of that is a cause for anti-IP/edit war concern. The real need for protection is the MJ-related edit war which is why it needs to be locked down until things calm down. Starforce13 01:54, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Starforce13, Yeah, I agree with on the MJ-related edits. I agree that this IP user shouldn't be resorting to namecalling and other personal attacks, but a discussion needs to take place related that MJ editing. So, hopefully another one week full protection can be instituted; afterward, it be worthy of re-assessing if semi-protection is needed if the IP editor doesn't get his or her way.

Semi-protection: Persistent IP vandalism since September 17. Roughly the same edits made on twenty separate occasions by two different IP addresses, apparently coming from the same user, plus one longer edit placing arguments supporting the edits directly in the body of the article (and which I moved to the article's talk page, where I replied to them). These edits and their reversions account for nearly all of the page history. One of the addresses was temporarily blocked in October; user has never used edit summaries or responded to messages on either the article talk page or his or her own talk pages, including explanations of why the edits were being reverted. The main address has never made any other edits; the secondary one has only made one other edit to another article—probably a different person a year earlier. P Aculeius ( talk) 13:07, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Note: Op: please read about what vandalism is, and, for good measure (and because of your comment on said talk-page:"So, please, admit your incorrect reconstructions, finally stop correcting me and, consequently, leave my legitimate and incontrovertible corrections intact. Thanks !!!") perhaps a little of this. I do not think this is a case for page-protection. Lectonar ( talk) 13:23, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
If you read what I wrote, you'll see those aren't my comments. Those are the comments of the IP editor, which he/she inserted into the body of the article, and which I moved to the talk page rather than deleting entirely. That is the sole discussion and explanation for the edits; the editor who wrote that has never responded to the talk page discussion, or attempts to explain the reversions on his/her talk pages, but simply continues making the same edits over and over again, despite being previously blocked for making the very same edits. P Aculeius ( talk) 14:28, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Declined I would agree this is not vandalism and should be settled on the article's talk page. Looking at the edits, it looks more to me like elimination of WP:VAGUE, specifically your reintroduction of the phrases, "an obscure plebeian", "many Pacilii" and "a needy pauper". Let this play out on the talk page. — Maile ( talk) 13:34, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
All of which has been explained on the article's talk page for nearly two months, without reply from the editor in question. All Roman families that were not patrician were plebeian, and there were only a few dozen patrician families—a topic much discussed, in which the Pacilii never come up, because there's no hint of any great antiquity or importance ever attached to them; Cicero is the only Roman writer who mentions any of them, and the only one he describes is the "needy pauper", as stated in the source cited in the article. From the nature of the edits it's clear that the IP editor is trying to make the very obscure sound noble and important, without even the slightest evidence—no source, because no sources for what he's saying exist; everything known about the Pacilii comes from the sources already cited in the article.

Note: Perhaps this will further discussion. I also warned 2.44.156.165 about edit warring and unsourced changes. (They were warned before.) This is a content dispute, and discussion is now required from both. I agree, this edit warring is vexacious. Maile66's and Lectonar's comments offer sound advice.-- Deep fried okra 13:44, 26 November 2019 (UTC) reply
Describing this as an "edit war" seems like a false equivalency—the edits have never been supported by any evidence, contradict the sources cited in the article, and appear to be nothing more than the editor's inventions to make a family that lived two thousand years ago seem more important—something best explained by the fact that the editor appears to be Italian, and is probably related to a family with a similar-sounding name. The editor has refused to discuss any of this on the article's talk page or anywhere else, and seems to have no understanding of Wikipedia policy or conventions. Reverting edits that are not, have never been, and probably cannot be supported by any reliable sources, from an editor who does nothing but make the same edits over and over again to the same page, without any willingness to engage in discussion or provide even a hint of evidence, is not edit warring.

Pending changes protection: Maybe it's that she's married to a 70 year old but people can't seem to accept–with reliable verification–that she changed her last name upon marriage.

Temporary protection. I'm not sure the appropriate type of protection, but perhaps pending changes or something along those lines, since it appears the vandalism isn't limited to IP users. Additionally, a user with an account keeps removing sourced information about the subject ( here. here, and here), and it seems this user set up an account with the sole purpose of removing this content. Other examples of recent vandalism include a user (again, not IP) repeatedly editing the article to say (falsely) that Williams died ( here and here, as well as various examples of IP vandalism here. — Hun ter Ka hn 12:45, 30 November 2019 (UTC) reply
