I didn't realise we get no information on who the mysterious oversighter was that declined to protect yesterday... Samsara 07:15, 16 January 2017 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I don't know about the incident that Samsara is referring to: but this appears to be necessary, and I am therefore protecting it.

Template:Infobox lacrosse player[edit]

Canada[edit]

Indefinite full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – After the infbox battle that happened just before Christmas, a new edit war has started. It seems one editor wants WP:CONSENSUS before a major change and I'm not sure what the other wants. A full lock, with a formal request for unlocking until an agreement is reached (on both topics) would be appreciated. I can't see a lot happening to Canada over the next few months that would require immediate change to registered editors. Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:44, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

Kate Smurthwaite[edit]

Persistent vandalism throughout 2016, 33 times by multiple unregistered users, 14 times by 4 SPAs (one SPA nominating the page for deletion, which was overwhelmingly rejected), one long vandalism edit war in February 2016. In 2014 and 2015, the constructive edits from unregistereds outnumbered the disruptive ones (2014: 3 to 1; 2015: 9 to 2), but this balance was overturned in 2016 (7 to 33). I'm not sure if semi-protection will solve the problem, because some vandals simply create an SPA. Also, most disruptive edits are reverted the same day, the page is relatively well-guarded. However, according to my calculation, 52 of the total of 232 or 22.4% of all edits are vandalism, which is far above the average of 5%. Interested in your opinion.

Ferret, thanks. The reason I requested indefinite move-protection, though, is that the moving of this article will continue.

West Coast Customs[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent blanking of West Coast Customs by self-described employees[6] hopping IPs. Since in a recent edit this person has apparently been "put in charge of moderating the West Coast Customs Wikipedia page" by West Coast Customs, I would like to ask for the page to be semi-protected so only autoconfirmed editors may edit it. Note that I'm doing my best to assume good faith here and despite my authorship of 80% of the current article I am not trying to claim WP:OWN or anything like that, but these IPs and now user accounts all with the same modus operandi completely ignore my and other editor's attempts to engage them in discussion [7] If it is too premature to ask for page protection, I'm sorry, I'm just trying to protect WP from vandalism which is quite likely to continue because it's obvious upper management of WCC does not like my article rewrite. Semi protection will allow these editors, if they have real grievances with the new version of the article, to ask for changes on the talk page and get consensus instead of the current hopping and blanking.

Jessica Jacobs[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – An IP hopping editor is making a dedicated effort over years to introduce Americanisms into an article about an Australian subject, introduce undue weight, alter the article to refer to the subject by her childhood nickname of "Jessie", alter the article to make an unnecessary reference to one of her characters as "#2" in her filmography.

Who thinks it is time to unprotect the astrology articles?[edit]

Who thinks we should Unprotect these articles: The astrology articles were very vandalized and needed protection back in September. This was due to several announcements by NASA. The Aries article was protected for 2 months, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces will be protected for 1 year, and Sagittarius has been protected indefinitely. The Aries article has been doing fine unprotected even while the rest are protected. So does this make you think these articles should be unprotected by now?68.224.116.208 (talk) 03:14, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Question: Did you ask the protecting admin, EdJohnston, first? CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 06:12, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
For what it's worth, I just looked at Sagittarius (astrology) and would endorse Ed's judgement - the article went bad in August 2012, and the history shows a mess of reverts since then. Samsara 12:52, 11 January 2017 (UTC)
I recommend leaving these semiprotections in place. If an IP wants changes, they can propose them on the talk page. It is likely that promoters of Ophiuchus as a member of the zodiac will continue to revert if protection is lifted. EdJohnston (talk) 14:20, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Adam Goodes[edit]

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent vandalism – This player is quite controversial in the sport and the page is therefore subject to reasonable amounts of vandalism. This page was previously protected and expired on 22 September 2016, since then, nearly every edit has been reverted due to IP vandalism. This player retired over 18 months ago and the vandalism on the page will probably never cease, therefore an indefinite protection is needed; also requesting pending changes as some good faith edits can also be controversial. i.e. relating to racism, reasons behind why he was booed etc. Flickerd (talk) 10:07, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
