Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Unsourced additions. (CC) Tbhotch™ 03:01, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Community sanctions enforcement. Eastern Europe antisemitism ctop RaschenTechner (talk) 18:27, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Filmssssssssssss (talk) 19:49, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. No edits at all in almost two months. And I don't think this one counts as a primary topic, nor has much relationship to the current conflict. Daniel Case (talk) 23:24, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. TornadoLGS (talk) 20:10, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Most of the recent disruptors have been blocked; there's been just one that hasn't and they might not do it again (if they do, we can add this article to their partial block). Daniel Case (talk) 23:31, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
@TornadoLGS, Balthazarduju, and Daniel Case: There was some vandalism a week ago and the block is correct due to the personal attacks, but this is probably a content dispute at the end of the day because while some of the information in the edits are already in the article, they're currently unsourced and the IP edits are adding those sources. There's probably a better way to address this than just fully reverting everything ... Sdrqaz (talk) 23:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

[edit]
Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
Shortcuts

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

  • To find out the username of the admin who protected the page, click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page," which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
  • Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
  • Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
  • If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page, please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected, please use the section below.

Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Tornado outbreak sequence of June 14–19, 2023

[edit]

Reason: This page is a very easy SOCK detection page; specifically WP:LTA/A5. All mass blankings have been reverted within a minute, and protection does help keep the page stable, however, there is a very clear SOCK-behavior going on it since August 2024. Brief protections do not work. I'm honestly requesting unprotection to help catch more of this LTA's accounts. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 21:51, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

This is just one of many many honeypots for this LTA; I wouldn't have protected it otherwise. Also, you're supposed to ask the protecting admin before making a request here (which is highlighted in bright yellow on this page).-- Ponyobons mots 22:01, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
Declined per above. Daniel Case (talk) 02:42, 21 February 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

[edit]
Request a specific edit to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
Shortcut

Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

  • Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
  • Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
  • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
  • If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
  • This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

[edit]

I would like to request if my son's page could be restored. I just learned that since his passing in 2018 that the page he created prior to is no longer found. I am his father and would like to update it and protect it for all time. Please let me know if you are able to assist or where I should look for such.

Hi @Schwede66, I hope you enjoyed your vacation. I have sourced the DOB in the early life section as per WP:INFOBOXREF. I followed the editing style of Geniac, the way he improved Sheezan Khan and tried adapting the same. Thanks C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 08:48, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
Thanks, I had a fab wee holiday. I don't understand your answer. I see that there is one ref in the infobox, and that reference does confirm the date of birth, but it is attached to the spouse only. Could you please explain what you mean, and how the referencing confirms the date of birth, C1K98V? Schwede66 08:59, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
Schwede66 In the above mentioned article I have sourced the date of birth in the Early life section, see here. And the spouse's source is just about their marriage. I'm following the editing style of Geniac, the improvement he did in one of my previously created article see here. Thanks C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 09:38, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
Sorry, which reference states the date of Vig's date of birth? I cannot see it. Schwede66 18:29, 19 January 2025 (UTC)
Schwede66, I have used two sources for DOB, Colors TV and India Today. You can find both the sources in the Early life section. Hope it helps, if you still can't verify the birth date, you're most welcome to remove it. Thanks C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 18:50, 19 January 2025 (UTC)
@C1K98V Is it just me or the webpage you're linking to from colorstv.com is redirecting to a /mena/ directory making it impossible to see what you're talking about or citing. As for the indiatoday.in, you did not initially position the citation as of when Schwede66 started reviewing your request, you only repositioned the citation today. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:07, 19 January 2025 (UTC)
Hi Vanderwaalforces, I'm not sure if the Colorstv website works outside of India. Let's wait for Schwede66 to confirm if they're able to verify it. I'm sharing a screenshot of the website for reference [7]. While searching for sources related to their academics, I found IndiaToday and added it later in the Early life section. I repositioned the named citation as I wanted to highlight it for Schwede66, so I left an edit summary too. Thanks for your consideration. C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 03:43, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
(Non-administrator comment) I can access the colorstv source and confirm that it mentions Gautam Vig's date of birth. – DreamRimmer (talk) 12:18, 20 January 2025 (UTC)
That's good to know, because I have the same problem that Vanderwaalforces talks about. I will have to get back to this item. Schwede66 07:44, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

It is my 8th year of editing (4th with this account). I have written a number of articles of various types and none have been permanently deleted. I have made mistakes, but understand what they were and how to avoid them. About to publish many geography stubs (manually written, differing in content, not violating MASSCREATE - see Ledenice and Zapeć for examples).

I would like to use AWB for repetitive editing tasks. I do these a lot for the projects I am a part of, and they have become very tedious. Edit: one of the projects I am a part of for a Church, does not have very many active contributors but a very large backlog. The effort to maintain the articles we have would be largely simplified by using AWB.

User:Boutboul

[edit]

Arcticocean requested that, "If [I] wish to gain [ECR] again, the onus would be on [me] to prove that trust has been regained." To address this challenge, I would like to respond to the two concerns raised:

1. "You have added translated content from other Wikipedias without attribution."
2. "You have artificially split your article contributions into separate edits to more quickly reach a high edit count."


1. Translated content without attribution

In October 2024, I misunderstood the rules regarding proper attribution for translated content. Since January 2025, I believe I have consistently included proper attribution in all my edit summaries, as demonstrated in these examples: here, here or here.


2. Split article contributions

Regarding this concern, I would like to clarify that my first 350 edits, made between 2006 and 2013, occurred before the 500 edits rule was introduced (2016). These edits could not have been intended to meet a requirement that did not exist at the time.
I acknowledge that I intentionally split my contributions to reach the 500 edits threshold, only for the remaining 150 contributions needed to meet this target.
However, since then, I have made over 700 additional contributions (~1200 in total) without splitting them. This can be seen in my average edit size, which is approximately 350 bytes and aligns with averages observed among contributors, including administrators.

I hope this explanation demonstrates my commitment to addressing the concerns raised and regaining trust. Michael Boutboul (talk) 15:19, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

HI Rosquill, In 2015, I took a picture of the subject among other panelists as a journalist blogger at conference in Brazil in 2015 on maternal and child health. I edited the photo and had permission from the subject and the other conference panelists and the conference organizers. Please forgive me if I uploaded the photo incorrectly with the incorrect attributions. I thought i did it correctly. I see I incorrectly labeled the photo as 2015 and not 2024. I will correct it.

(Non-administrator comment) You made you first edit to Wikipedia just over a month ago and have made only 389 edits to mainspace. This still falls short of the the minimum criteria linked to above for this user right, and admins may call for additional experience.Tagging of pages for deletion is best left to qualified New Page Reviewers. We do need more reviewers so I would suggest you thoroughly read and understand the tutorial at WP:NPP, and then reapply in a couple of months when you have a measurable track record.

Hello again, I was granted NPR for the January backlog drive, and reviewed 48.4 in total. I was planning to do a lot more, but I quickly learnt it's best to stick with subjects I'm familiar with, mainly English football, so didn't end up doing much beyond that. Anyway, I'd like to continue reviewing. I doubt I'll be a prolific reviewer, but otherwise happy to handle what I come across, and participate in future backlog drives as required. I only had a couple of re-reviews, so I welcome any admin to check over other reviews I've made. Thanks. CNC (talk) 18:26, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

I have been an active contributor to Wikipedia and focused on editing articles, reviewing new pages & combating vandalism. I am requesting for PCR right to speeding up the review process for pending changes. I am familiar with key Wikipedia content policies, including vandalism, biographies of living persons (BLP), neutral point of view (NPOV), verifiability, and copyright compliance. I've also been involved in patrolling recent changes, where I use Twinkle tool to revert vandalism.

I've previously requested rollback twice but I'm here a third time to ask once again. I think rollback would be much easier in loads of situations. I patrol certain pages and help maintain others, and I've had the experience of needing to revert numerous edits but since I do not have the rollback feature I have had to manually revert the changes, which take up too much time and are quit time consuming, not to mention tedious. So I am here once again to request rollback in order to revert vandalism, unconstructive edits or misinformation as well as other tid bits.
