List of Paramount Global television programs

• List of Paramount Global television programs (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: The IP hopper who frequented these kind of pages is back. They're adding unnecessary references and reverting my constructive editing, and only they seem to be fiercely objecting to what I do. Vidpro23 (talk) 12:28, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

• Those are reliable sourced that you removed for no particular reasons. 148.252.156.137 (talk) 17:35, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Permanent semi-protection: Persistent IP vandalism Daask (talk) 13:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Andh Bhakt

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This article is being changed by a government supporter without any reliable source, please pay attention. Youknowwhoistheman (talk) 15:13, 21 May 2024 (UTC). Youknowwhoistheman (talk) 15:13, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. Please refer to my note here, Youknowwhoistheman (i.e. still just the one user). Thank you. El_C 18:42, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

List of NATO reporting names for fighter aircraft

• List of NATO reporting names for fighter aircraft (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: An user by the IP of 122.54.107.69 has continuously been adding fictional aircraft which disrupts the accuracy of the article and even after I made a warning the user has still been adding fictional aircraft to a list for real planes. Thehistorianisaac (talk) 16:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. @Thehistorianisaac: I've warned them for you, but please make greater efforts to issue talk page warnings to users that are vandalizing articles. Thank you. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 17:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Crimean Tatars

• Crimean Tatars (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: Persistent IP vandalism. [5] [6] [7] [8]

IP user is citing a news page about the Crimean Tatar invasion of New England (one English city established in Crimea) as a source for the English origin of Crimean Tatars. Website holds no credibility [9], and it does not mention anything about English origin of Crimean Tatars rather, it is only about invasion and history of the city. I attempted to engage with the user on the talk page. [10].

Once again, the IP user has provided two sources that make no mention of the English origin of Crimean Tatars. This time, the words "English" or "Anglo-Saxon" don't even appear. I am fully convinced this is not a good faith edit and he is trying to mislead the readers for personal reasons. I believe this user won't stop using fake citations to prove his agenda. Auzandil (talk) 18:07, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. Sorry, but as I note in a request/s above a few minutes ago, we don't usually protect on account of just one user; usually there needs to be several to qualify for protection. Thank you.

Temporary extended confirmed protection: We have a famous serial killer in the hospital who may be dying soon...... Let's lock this up until we have proper sourcing. Moxy🍁 22:05, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 3 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. @Moxy: I don’t see any unsourced edits from EC users, so could you please clarify why you’re requesting ECP? Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:12, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

We have people adding that he's dead... I can't find sources for that yet..... but it is anticipated ....News from this afternoon Moxy🍁 22:18, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

@Moxy: That's an IP address editor, not an extended confirmed user. We generally don't protect pages with ECP unless there is significant disruption from autoconfirmed users. This is discussed more at WP:PREEMPTIVE and WP:ECP. (Technically speaking, BLPs can be extended confirmed protected under WP:CT/BLP, but this page isn't anywhere near the point where that makes sense.) If there's significant disruption from autoconfirmed users, please feel free to submit a request for ECP. Thanks. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:37, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Sorry wasn't paying attention to the acronym used...... will do so thanks for your help. Moxy🍁 22:38, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
