Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Candice LeRae

Temporary pending changes: BLP policy violations – Persistent infrequent vandalism, page has been protected in the past. Fork99 (talk) 06:50, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. "Persistent" it may be, but "infrequent" means it doesn't need protection. Daniel Case (talk) 01:16, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Matt Vickers

Reason: Recent IP vandalism / blanking of information despite reverting. Initially by a specific user, but now by anonymous IP addresses. ClevelandUpdates (talk) 06:53, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Two instances in the last three days. Daniel Case (talk) 01:18, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Arameans

Reason: Persistent disruptive editing by unregistered users. Shmayo (talk) 08:42, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edinburgh Airport

Semi-protection:  – Persistent disruptive removal of references and improve templates by IP editor. Maungapohatu (talk) 15:48, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

June 26

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – WP:LTA/LB2. Judging from the pattern we might as well semi all the other remaining dates in June as Lithuaniaball2 keeps on vandalizing it. -- Prodraxistalkcontribs (she/her) 16:31, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Economy of Vietnam

Reason: User "John Yunshire" and user "118.71.62.22" have both been trying to revert to an older inferior article, and in the process, deleting [10,779‎] of properly sourced information. I am requesting for increased protection from vandalism and to keep the newest article edited by me or the one with the IP Address: 61.68.143.23. 61.68.143.23 (talk) 17:17, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

KTPZ

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. IP address 2600:6C67:207F:CDDC:9033:B12C:A618:2D37 vandalized the article, and using RW, I reverted 5 edits by the IP and left a message on their talk page. YourLocalHoustonian (talk) 00:29, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of Thomas & Friends film characters

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – ip's keep adding Repetitive wording and repeated trivia to articles along with other issues with edits. Magical Golden Whip (talk) 00:57, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

List of characters in The Railway Series

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – ip's keep adding Repetitive wording and repeated trivia to articles along with other issues with edits. Magical Golden Whip (talk) 01:10, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Den-noh Coil

Reason: Persistent disruptive editing in the last days. Xexerss (talk) 03:35, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

User:Thesaurabhsaha

Indefinite semi-protection: as an active and dedicated contributor to Wikipedia, I believe that having a protected userpage will allow me to focus more on content creation and collaborative editing without constantly monitoring and repairing vandalism. Thesaurabhsaha (talk) 04:38, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just looking over the contribution history, has anyone actually edited your user page other than yourself? Ravenswing 05:00, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Frank J. Selke Trophy

Temporary semi-protection: The NHL awards were last evening, and this page has been under a barrage of vandalism by IPs. Semi-protection for a week's time should see that end. Ravenswing 04:58, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:GPT-3

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – All IP edits on this talk page since (at least) 2022 have failed WP:TALK, mostly because hapless internet users appear to mistake it for a chatbot interface. (Talk:ChatGPT had to be semiprotected for similar reasons a while ago already.). HaeB (talk) 05:04, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
