Request for WP:SEMI Protection

Hi Wikipedians,

There have been a moderate amount of vandal cases on Loh's page, this month having 2 already [[1]], and [[2]].

Therefore, I feel it is necessary to nominate the page for Semi protection to protect vandals. Most of these vandals are accounts that have not reached autoconfirmed status, having single-digit edit counts on their account, or sockpuppetry accounts.

Do let me know your thoughts on this matter by replying below. Thank you!

Passages are overly detailed

All the passages have overly detailed descriptions of Loh's progress through tournaments. Please keep in mind that the article is about LKY, not the tournaments. Of course they should be mentioned, but only in passing. To avoid adding excessive information about the tournaments, one must only add the achievements when it is a medal winning performance or podium finishing in world tour tournaments. Olympics and World Championship should be mentioned irrespective of early loss. Pinging IssacT6, Stvbastian, Lim Zhi Hang. zoglophie 06:53, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
