Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – See Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Date-changing vandal from Guatemala. Erick (talk) 05:08, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
User(s) blocked. El_C 06:30, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason:: Sudden and stubborn influx of IPs and new accounts created with the sole purpose of vandalizing the page, removing information cited en masse, as visible from the chrono of the last two weeks circa. Subjected to repeated vandalism in these same minutes. Sira Aspera (talk) 09:06, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I suppose this indie video game must have a dedicated following of some kind, because it was released in 2020 and still attracts a lot of vandalism and/or unconstructive edits by IP users and newly created accounts. Just today, another indef block. If indef is too much, might I suggest a longer block? Thanks!. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 11:06, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. This has only been protected once; the usal procedere is to slowly escalate the duration of protection. Lectonar (talk) 12:59, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Repeatedly the User:Mohammad Umar Ali edit this page. Rahio1234 11:38, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- I would request anyone who is seeing the msg that this user Rahio is harassing me and not letting me add my WP:RS sourced information in the article just because it doesn't suit his POV. I already had a long discussion on the disputed topic in Maratha Confederacy talk page and quoted the information from WP:RS sources still he is vandalizing the info and reverting my edits. Also this user has been previously blocked for adding unsourced information (WP:OR) and edit disputes. Plz help me and see to it. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 11:47, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- Please see WP:RS if necessary Rahio1234 11:58, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- What do you think is a reliable source? You seem to cite WP:RS every time you disagree with someone's edits, despite most of the time the edits being fine. I recently reverted your reverts on Ministry of Interior (Iraq) because an IP added good and cited content which you reverted by just saying, "see WP:RS". I don't think Mohammad Umar Ali is in the right either here, as he even has an ongoing and seemingly truthful sockpuppet investigation against him, but you can't always cite WP:RS anytime an IP edits a page or someone adds content you don't like.

- 1st source The Marathas New Cambridge history of India Vol2 Part 4 pg 138 mentions
Maratha brief occupation of Punjab see the quote: After yet another Abdali invasion, the Marathas, under Nana Saheb’s brother, Ragunath Rao, and Malhar Rao Holkar, returned from Malwa and the Deccan in the campaigning season of 1757-58. A Maratha invasion of the Punjab followed, which coincided with the much more significant Sikh rebellion. The Maratha Punjab adventure was brief; the Ragunath Rao expedition left little administration behind, and the Sikhs successfully resisted any attempt to set up long-term Maratha authority.
This clearly says Marathas briefly occupied Punjab and the exact limits can be inferred from my second source JL Mehta Advance study in History of India pg 234-237 - My 2nd WP:RS source JL Mehta's Advance Study in Indian History pg 237 clearly says quoting;
Thus nature did provide a golden opportunity to the Marathas to establish their sway over whole of Punjab and northwest India, upto Attock and Khyber pass, although the spell of their rule proved very shortlived.
This clearly indicates Maratha Empire/Confederacy ruled till Khyber Pass. - <meta />
- 3rd WP:RS source Pletcher, Kenneth (2010). The History of India pg 198 quoting;
Thus in 1757 Ahmad Shah's son Timur, appointed governor of Punjab, was forced to retreat from Lahore to Peshawar under the force of attacks from Sikhs and Marathas.
- 4th WP:RS Source;The state at war in South Asia page 55; quoting:
The Marathas attacked soon after and, with some help from the Sikhs, managed to capture Attock, Peshawar, and Multan between April and May 1758.
SEE the word "CAPTURED" - Additional: The Marathas New Cambridge History of India Vol2 Part 4 states This is for Areal limit of the Empire/Confederacy (same source); Quoting:
First, we shall look at the expanding areas controlled by the Marathas, and there were many. Maratha leaders pushed into Rajasthan, the area around Delhi, and on into the Punjab. They attacked Bundelkund and the borders of Uttar Pradesh. Further east, the Marathas attacked Orissa and the borders of Bengal and Bihar.
- And Same book pg 138 states; quoting; This is the source for protectors of Delhi throne pg 138 here is the quotation:
For the Marathas, probably the two most significant events of the whole chaotic period in Delhi were a treaty in 1752, which made them protector of the Mughal throne (and gave them the right to collect chauth in the Punjab), and the civil war of 1753, by which the Maratha nominee ended up on the Mughal throne.

- Agreed. Multiple users are persistently disruptive the article, likely due to the new move talk consensus. PadFoot2008 12:19, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Mellk (talk) 11:57, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Reason: This page keeps being vandalised by sockpuppets (even though the page is already semi-protected..). Several socks of the sockmaster (The Penfield Homunculus) have been banned during the last couple of months but the vandalism continues due to new socks emerging.

- The vandalic edits are your's. Stop accusing others to sockpuppetry. First, demonstrate. Second, accuse. Mucchia (talk) 13:27, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- (Ironically) this message above was posted by one of their socks... Eem dik doun in toene (talk) 13:30, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
Confirmed that Mucchia is one of the aforementioned socks. I'm leaving for a couple of days. If it was feasible, I'd protect all the articles targeted by this prolific sockpuppeteer, but there's just too many. I second Eem dik doun in toene's request for a more narrow protection. --Yamla (talk) 13:46, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Someone has obviously changed the first section either as a joke or maliciously. It is claiming that a British actress is descended from "predator" aliens. The rest of the article appears to be the original text. 81.78.117.74 (talk) 12:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
