Paranormal Activity

Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Jinnifer. BangJan1999 20:37, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Matt Walsh (political commentator)

Semi-protection: BLP policy violations. Iamreallygoodatcheckers 22:26, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Since the protection expired two and a bit days ago there has only been one instance of vandalism, rest were in good faith. DatGuyContribs 22:30, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

List of hood films

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Consistent disruptive editing by an IP editor (removal of sourced content, addition of unsourced content, unexplained changes). Madbrad200 (talk) 23:26, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Note: same editor did similar things in the Hood film page. Madbrad200 (talk) 23:28, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

Module:Split article

Reason: Should be extended-confirmed protected to match protection level with Template:Split article * Pppery * it has begun... 02:02, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Question: Pppery, it already is. What am I missing? El_C 02:54, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
Nothing other than my own stupidity. Already protected by administrator MusikBot II. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:55, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Brittney Griner

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Repeated trolling from IPs baselessly suggesting Griner is a man. I've already had to have two revision deletions done over this, and it keeps happening. ― Tartan357  02:07, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Cassava Sciences

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Daniel Case last semi-protected the article for one week, through August 7, which gave me a breather to get the article cleaned up (mostly). Here is the last description of the issues with biased IP editing; the Department of Justice is investigating the company, it's one of several high profile scandals in the Alzheimer's research world, and there appears to be paid editing on board. The IP returned to reinstate the same biased pro-company original research and does not engage the talk page or provide sources, often offering POV based on interpretation of primary sources or company documents. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:41, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

The IP
  • Removes cited text and introduces POV: (original expectation was for 1,750 enrollment)
    Inserts text based on primary sources, which disagrees with secondary sources:
    Appears to have inside knowledge:
    Inserts POV by using primary sources to misrepresent the full picture covered by secondary sources:
    Inserts POV using Cassava as a source, rather than independent, third-party sources:
    Then moves that POV text to the lead:
All the same as other IP edits before the last semi. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:52, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

User:WolfeReAds/sandbox

Temporary pending changes protection: Highly Visible Template. WolfeReAds (talk) 02:53, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Declined – This template is not used widely enough to be considered a high-risk template. Mifter (talk) 03:00, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Association for the Defense of Animals and Nature

Indefinite create protection: Repeatedly recreated – Previous semi has expired. Please upgrade to ECP. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:06, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
