Reason: 1 month protection for 2.28.232.228 edits without a valid reason. Shkuru Afshar (talk) 02:21, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Declined @Shkuru Afshar: There are only two edits and they are not vandalism. Please try to engage with the IP by putting a section on article talk with an explanation of the problem and link to that in an edit summary that reverts problematic edits. It's not feasible for admins to get involved in every disagreement and it is necessary that initial attempts be taken by others. Johnuniq (talk) 02:59, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi

OK, Thanks Shkuru Afshar (talk) 06:35, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. C F A 💬 02:41, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

@CFA: Please fix the article before requesting protection. Wording such as the following regarding a WP:BLP is not acceptable: "In July of 2020, [person] was included in accusations of sexual assault surrounding Burger Records by the Instagram account [external link]". The reference seems ok which is why I didn't just delete the paragraph. Please take the hint from how the reference described the situation and definitely do not mention or link to an Instagram account. Questions can be asked at WP:BLPN. Johnuniq (talk) 03:07, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

@Johnuniq: I've fixed the article and removed the OR about the Instagram account. The rest is supported by the citation. I'm only requesting protection because EddyGrapes and (I assume) the same person as an IP keep reverting the article without discussing. They have broken 3RR and have shown no interest in discussing.

Semi-protected for a period of two weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Johnuniq (talk) 03:46, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – It is very difficult to undo the vandalism when someone do not notice it and good additions are some afterwards. I think this page need protection from frequent edit wars by new users with WP:CIR issues. Admantine123 (talk) 02:48, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ymblanter (talk) 06:17, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – With news of her departure from AM Racing, there will be a flood of vandalism from numerous users. Areaseven (talk) 04:04, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:36, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

List of genocides

• List of genocides (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: Extremely high contentiousness of this topic leading to edit wars and inclusion of misleading or contentious information without sufficient caveats. For example, the inclusion of the estimate of 186,000 deaths as an estimate of deaths in Gaza even though even the source this comes from says this primarily includes potential future deaths and the deletion, un-deletion of the section on Gaza by extended confirmed users. 128.12.122.220 (talk) 04:31, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

It is already extended confirmed protected, and I do not see why the full protection would be needed here. Ymblanter (talk) 06:15, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Lectonar (talk) 08:09, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: New users frequently post requests here instead of on the appropriate page. I don't see an issue in protecting it; it's unlikely non-AC users will be needing to update anything here. C F A 💬 05:25, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 06:38, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

• Patriots for Europe (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: (Temporary semi-protection) Edit war continued by two IP users [1] [2] which started yesterday

See: Talk:Patriots for Europe#Motorists Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring#User:FellowMellow reported by User:Fm3dici97 (Result: Blocked 36 hours) Braganza (talk) 07:20, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Kingswood_College,_Kandy

• Kingswood College, Kandy (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: The user name Viru96 is always removing content without explaining why he removing that content. I undo his changes several times. But he always as usual remove those things. Please Semi Protect or at least Pending changes Protection. IDB.S (talk) 07:20, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I think it might be worth a try to talk to said user directly, but without using templates. Lectonar (talk) 08:11, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

Already tried to contact the user but no answer. What to do? IDB.S (talk) 08:26, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
