Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Teo Ser Luck

Reason: It has been 10 years since the page has been protected and during this 10 years, less than 100 edits have been made, less than 10 edits per year.

I believe the page is generally vandal-free and stable enough to remove the protection. Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 01:50, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. This appears to have been placed under indefinite semi-protection as a result of a community discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents/La goutte de pluie (see the section: "3.5.1 Alternative: Put disputed articles on 1RR+semi"). I’m not sure if a community discussion is now needed to undo the protection. Malcolmxl5 (talk) 11:31, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Reply I noted that it was the result of a community discussion after I requested and waited to see any opinion. I will bring this and the other three articles to AN for request of unprotection. Thanks! --Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 01:43, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unprotection: No instance of vandalism in the last 7 months, and very little before that this year. The rationale for protecting it back in 2017 has disappeared. Even if vandalism comes back, Recent changes reviewers will easily be able to handle it, considering the overwhelmingly constructive edits Double Plus Ungood (talk) 20:03, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Double Plus Ungood:, have you discussed this with Ymblanter, the admin who pending changes protected the page? – Muboshgu (talk) 20:42, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As far as I am concerned, pending changes protection is working as intended, though I am not going to object if another admin wants to lift it.--Ymblanter (talk) 20:49, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'm on the fence on this one. Double Plus Ungood is slightly incorrect, there was last vandalism on the article five months ago.[1] ClueBot caught it, though. 2020 appears somewhat worse than 2021 has been regarding vandalism. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:04, 28 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bitfinex

Reason: activity has significantly decreased as relevance of the exchange in the entire space is diminished. no incentive for misinformation and the little activity the page is seeing can be administrated and reviewed easily if required 112.119.25.231 (talk) 14:44, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging the protecting administrator TonyBallioni for their input. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 00:50, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Polsky

Reason: Extended confirmed over an edit war 2 years ago. Don't see the need for Extended-confirmed protection SuperSkaterDude45 (talk) 17:22, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging the protecting administrator CactusWriter for their input. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 00:49, 30 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Malabar rebellion

Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because ....... . Hrishikesh M. S keshu (talk) 13:10, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Malabar rebellion of 1921 (also known by the names Moplah massacre, Moplah riots, Mappila riots) started as a resistance against the British colonial rule in Malabar region of Kerala. Unfortunately the popular uprising was ended against the destruction of hindu temples, rapping women's and children's, looting the wealth of hindus and mass massacre of hindus.}}

Ricardo Quaresma

Reason: Permanent protection was applied in 2011 when the player was rumoured to be transferred. Ten years later, and approaching the age of 40, he no longer has the profile to warrant permanent protection. There have only been six edit requests in that decade, mostly of trivial details such as image captions, or IPs asking to use newer photographs. Relevant admin is semi-retired. 2A00:23C5:E187:5F00:1DE8:CDC0:31C8:C7EF (talk) 19:51, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dublin Airport

Reason: Requesting unprotection of this page so that it can be kept up to date. The page has been fully protected for more than 10 days. I would assume that further full protection would not be helpful. Johnj1995 (talk) 15:46, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Morgan & Morgan

Reason: I want to create a page for this law firm. It was previously SALTED due to apparent WP:COI attempts at creating the page in 2014. I contacted the protecting admin, HJ Mitchell, but they did not respond. Thanks! Marquardtika (talk) 14:39, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jimmy Bain

Reason: Article was protected due to persistent vandalism upon the death of this individual in January of 2016. However, with that period now close to six years in the past, all edits to the article since that subsided have been minor tweaks by those autoconfirmed users allowed to make such changes. 98.160.169.160 (talk) 22:53, 2 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
