Survivor Series: WarGames (2024)

Reason: I've previously asked for protection for this page here and was told to come back if more issues occured. Even though it's semi-protected it is still being contantly disruptied. I'm asking for extended confirmed protection not indefinite but at least for a month, maybe a bit after just in case they disrupt the article after the event has concluded. ] If you need any more evidence to confirm anything please let me know in the reply. Lemonademan22 (talk) 15:02, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Some of the other users you've reverted recently are also extended-confirmed; they wouldn't be affected. Are their edits the ones that you are referring to? Daniel Case (talk) 04:18, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

15.ai

Reason: High level of edit warring on semi-protected article. In addition, there seems to be a high level of COI edits from users who previously engaged in a pattern of disruptive edits. Despite previous discussions about notability, the same issues continue to resurface, creating an unproductive cycle of content removal and restoration. The editors' actions appear to be WP:BATTLEGROUND behavior rather than constructive editing. (see Misplaced Pages:Good article reassessment/15.ai/1).

I plan to clean up the article after it has been protected, as per WP:BOLD. HackerKnownAs (talk) 23:27, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Question: So you want extended-confirmed protection? Daniel Case (talk) 04:28, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Yes, that would be good, especially if the protection can be added indefinitely (since this article has been extended-confirmed protected multiple times and it still sees a large amount of vandalism and edit warring to this day). Out of curiosity, is it also possible to add a protection against specific users that have been participating in WP:BATTLEGROUND behavior rather than constructive editing? HackerKnownAs (talk) 14:30, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
No, but we have Misplaced Pages:Partial blocks which, imho, are somewhat less used than they should be. Lectonar (talk) 14:35, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
I see, thanks. Specifically, I've noticed a disproportionately large amount of nonconstructive edits (some blatantly violating WP:YESPOV and accusing editors of violating WP:COI with no evidence) from User:BrocadeRiverPoems, a relatively new Misplaced Pages editor who seems to be more concerned with arguing the legitimacy of previous editors than constructively editing the article (see: the lengthy discussion at Misplaced Pages:Good article reassessment/15.ai/1). I suggest a partial block over the participants of this edit war on this article, but an extended-confirmed protection should do the trick as well. HackerKnownAs (talk) 17:21, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
I don't like issuing partial blocks without any warning, though, especially to a user who seems in general to be contributing constructively. If we're going to discuss that, perhaps AN/I is a better forum than this. Daniel Case (talk) 22:23, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
If this article is granted extended-confirmed protection, I am requesting extended confirmed access to help with cleanup. I previously held this right and used it for similar maintenance work on this article when I asked for the article to be extended-confirmed protected a year ago. HackerKnownAs (talk) 17:40, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Should that happen, you are referred to WP:REQPERM. That request is outside the scope of this noticeboard. Daniel Case (talk) 22:25, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
Understood, thank you. If the extended-confirmed protection is granted, I'll make a request there. HackerKnownAs (talk) 22:42, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Changing the budget and box office without providing reliable sources. Charliehdb (talk) 13:01, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

If we upgrade to ECP, either that stays till May or we shorten the protection term, due to the limitations of MediaWiki which don't allow us to layer protection beyond PC, so once protection expires we'd have to reprotect it. Which are you comfortable with? Daniel Case (talk) 22:34, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

List of serving generals of the Bangladesh Army

Reason: A new user has been making repeated incorrect edits, which is causing confusion. Please consider enabling protection on the page temporarily to maintain accuracy. EngrShakamal (talk) 14:21, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Already protected by administrator BusterD. for three days. Daniel Case (talk) 22:36, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent removal of sourced content. ZLEA T\ 14:41, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. There have been only two recent reverts, and one was of an editor who's EC. So I don't see protection here as likely to have much effect. Daniel Case (talk) 22:39, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. Persistent edits by socks of Belugajdm, see SPI. Could do with 30/500 rather than semi. OXYLYPSE (talk) 14:41, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Ismail al-Faruqi

Reason: Renewing a request for semi-protection for Ismail al-Faruqi and a set of pages related to him due to chronic sockpuppetry and IP edit warring. Since the last request was declined, these pages have seen daily (and sometimes multiple daily) attempts by WP:LOUTSOCK IPs to restore material that was added by proven sockpuppets and removed pursuant to the sockpuppetry policy. (See SPI page.) In addition to Ismail al-Faruqi and for the same reason, I am renewing my request for semi-protection for:

Thank you! Dclemens1971 (talk) 14:45, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Kash Patel

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – ip users and users with low edit counts are doing bad faith edits or are making edits thinking that they are doing the right thing but they are removing valid information

there is also ongoing edit wars on this page thats also another reason. best regards, Paytonisboss (talk) 15:02, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Kanguva

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent IP vandalism as the film has just been released and has become the subject of a lot of discussion online.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – WP:CT/AI. Skitash (talk) 16:35, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Malayalam

Reason: Yet again high level of reverts on this page in an attempt to platform a fringe view as mainstream. I suspect from the same accounts and anonymous IPs. Requesting some longer page protection for this page in light of previous page protections repeatedly failing after time expiration. Thank you Metta79 (talk) 16:46, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – IP hopping and removal of sourced info. HistoryofIran (talk) 16:54, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Namudag

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. Officialhistory601 (talk) 19:01, 14 November 2024 (UTC) This page is so controversial and many people are trying to add miss information and wrong information in this , which is affecting the community related to this place , so please protect it .

Ελλαδα

Reason: A countries page that could easily be vandalized by people with bad intentions.

Im looking to lock the greek page as semi-protected, as the English equivalent page is already semi-protected YOLO WOLF (talk) 19:03, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of three days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will put CTOPS notice on talk. Daniel Case (talk) 21:57, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Yokohama DeNA BayStars

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 22:03, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

NA-81 Gujranwala-V

Reason: The article has faced ongoing disruption and vandalism since September, which constitutes a WP:BLPVIO as it impacts the election results of living individuals. Extended protection, ideally six months would be ideal, as there is too much to handle.
