:{{u|WGFinley}}, I think it's a bad idea to base your Wikipeida actions on a POV outlet like Fox News. If you've checked the protection history, then you see that it had just come off a one month semiprotection and there was an immediate resumption of vandalism. That one month protection closely followed another one month protection. Given the John Weaver story, it's a reasonable expectation that semiprotection remains necessary. I think removing protection is a mistake, but if you want to go ahead and try it, I ask that you be ready to reaffirm it when vandalism resumes. – [[User:Muboshgu|Muboshgu]] ([[User talk:Muboshgu#top|talk]]) 16:27, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Alexei Navalny

Greetings,

I was just looking at the edit history of the Alexei Navalny (Russian politician) page, and noticed you edit fairly often. Since you may have some expertise on the guy, would it be possible for you to look over a fairly heated debate thats happening right now at Talk:2024 Russian presidential election#Navalny? I thought that it would be worth mentioning him being barred from running in 2024 like in 2018 (likley for political reasons), but a user keeps insisting that its Western propaganda. Looking for a reliable editor to mediate. Thank you. LauraWilliamson (talk) 00:25, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have made a few edits reverting vandalism on Navalny's page, but I do not have any great knowledge of the situation besides what I see in Western media. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:21, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Slim Love, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Dutch Leonard.

Why?

Why did you delete my update of James Paxton? Zsetter85 (talk) 05:59, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Zsetter85, because you didn't cite any sources, and it's unconfirmed. Deals that rely on a physical are not a guarantee until the team announces it. – Muboshgu (talk) 06:18, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok cheers. New to this and just getting my bearings. Cheers Zsetter85 (talk) 06:57, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Simon Bell page on session singer

My page has been deleted, and I'm hoping there is a way to have that reversed. I find that people in the music business make contact with me through that page, particularly to consult on my late colleague, Dusty Springfield.

The Lincoln Project Semi-Protection

It seems the protection of this page hit the media and brought my attention to it. I took a look at its history and it appears there was only one vandalism edit between its last protection and when you protected it. You also set it for 3 months which seems a bit long without much of a vandalism history to merit protecting the page under the Protection Policy. Also, given some of your edits to this article [2][3], particularly your comment on this edit you seem to be pretty involved in this article beyond just an Admin capacity.

I'd like to remove the protection and monitor and I think you should let other admins who are not involved in the editing of it to make a decision on if it needs protection again. --WGFinley (talk) 12:43, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

WGFinley, I think it's a bad idea to base your Wikipeida actions on a POV outlet like Fox News. If you've checked the protection history, then you see that it had just come off a one month semiprotection and there was an immediate resumption of vandalism. That one month protection closely followed another one month protection. Given the John Weaver story, it's a reasonable expectation that semiprotection remains necessary. I think removing protection is a mistake, but if you want to go ahead and try it, I ask that you be ready to reaffirm it when vandalism resumes. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:27, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
