Indef Pending Changes Protection: IP or new users making racist edits on the page. Edit revert cycle where almost every other, two, or the next day's edits is a revert. On top of that some of the reverts were due to the edits being unnecessary (thus edits reverted as good faith). Page has been protected multiple times in the past, the log even shows edits that have been removed from history because of those edits falling into the RD:# category. Last 500 edits shows the cycle, it is suggested that the decider for the block to look carefully at the dates, as some legit users have made multiple edits on the same day on that page. I am suggesting that so the reviewer does not get mistaken and think that there was a large gap in the vandalism, as vandalism edit would be seen only 2 days before or after those large number of edits on that single day. Even after the protections the page would still get vandalized, at a consistent amount. In my opinion, I do not think such a page would have an end to its racist vandal edits, that is the main reason why I am asking for indef.

Frequent vulgar vandalism. Changing Ms. Tran's last name to a transphobic slur (which has been cached on Google and is currently listed as an auto-expand for this article). Listing her occupation as "illegal immigrant". Frequent editorializing about her performance. In summary, her article is attracting childish and immature behavior. There have been at least 9 vandalism reverts, including one on December 3rd 2018. This page was protected in the past, and it needs to be protected again.

Semi-protection: - Repeated request since the latter request from 26 November only led to a two-day protection, but the page has been edited again – the anonymous user has removed warning templates. A longer protection period is requested. Anonymous IP editors have removed warning tags several times, now approaching an edit war. I have tried to start a discussion on the talk page, but so far the IP users haven't entered that debate. I suspect the article was started and maintained as an autobiography, and that the IP users could in fact be the same person. It would be great if they would edit under a username instead. --Sasper (talk) 00:31, 4 December 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes protection: I'm requesting re-instatement of previously applied pending changes protection, and suggesting that it be left in place indefinitely on this occasion. About a month and a half back, while working on the pending changes backlog, I stumbled upon a peculiar pending edit for this article involving non-sourced assertions that would have altered the tone of portions of the article. I began digging into the article reversion history and talk page archives and soon discovered that, for nearly as long as this article has been around, there has been a sockmaster constantly opening new single purpose accounts, making just a handful of edits to the article or the talk page with said account, and then dropping that account immediately, only to start the whole process over again a few days, weeks, or months later. There have been dozens upon dozens of these registered accounts and apparently an equal number of utilized IPs, all attempting to make nearly identical changes to the article (which edits are then quickly reverted by observing community members) and then pushing for these changes on the talk page when they are reverted.
These throw-away accounts all utilize an almost identical approach (even beyond the fact that they edit only this one article and only make a few edits each), with regard to pushing a conspiracy theory in relation to the article's topic. Richard Heene and Mayumi Heene, the parents of the titular "baloon boy", took plea deals in relation to the multiple felony and misdemeanor charges they faced in relation to the hoax. However, more recently Richard Heene has pushed the conspiracy theory that he and his wife were the victims of a police cover-up and media conspiracy to frame them, and that he has been robbed of his status as a groundbreaking "inventor" of aeronautic vehicles as a consequence. These two points (the Heenes are innocent victims of a conspiracy/mass delusion, and Richard Heene is a respected engineer) are the exact two same points which these throw-away accounts try to push over and over again, generally supported by anonymous conspiracy theory videos on youtube which have (for obvious reasons) been rejected as reliable sources on the talk page time and time again; this and a large number of other behavioural factors lead me to the belief that Heene himself is probably the sockmaster here, but that point is largely academic since the disruption is manifest regardless.
Unfortunately, though this matter has been to SPI, blocks of the accounts are not going to be effective because the sockmaster apparently has access to proxy services and jumps from IP to IP and registers new accounts utilizing these IP constantly; I searched through the history of the article and found dozens of them, but eventually stopped counting. The edits to the article are always swiftly reverted (I suspect the page is now watchlisted by a large number of editors who have observed this disruption over the years) and the follow-up arguments on the talk page are always rejected whole-cloth by the regular editors there. Nevertheless, this single-purpose sockmaster is costing a not inconsiderable amount of waste of volunteer time in order to contain their ceaseless edit war. They've been at this for years, renwing the effort every few weeks or months, and I doubt they are going to stop any time soon. It is for this reason that previous page protection was applied to the page, but the sockmaster just waits these out. I strongly urge that pending changes protection be added to the article and left in place for the foreseeable future; there's very little in terms of new reliable sources on this topic and very strong consensus on the talk page that the current form of the article summarizes the existing RS, so the benefit-to-harm ratio for leaving protection in place long-term is very high in my opinion.
For additional details, see: the article revision history, Talk:Balloon_boy_hoax (including a long and obvious history of the activity of the sequential socks in the archives), and this as-yet unclosed SPI for a list of the most recently active socks, to see the pattern of disruption in their contribution histories, which are nearly 100% composed of the same repeated edits to the balloon boy article, and that article alone.

Indefinite-Pending-Changes-Protection: IP or new users making vandal edits on these pages. Edit revert cycle where almost every other, two, or the next day's edits is a revert. On top of that some of the reverts were due to the edits being unnecessary (thus edits reverted as good faith). Pages (except gray) has been protected multiple times in the past. Last 500 edits shows the cycle, it is suggested that the decider for the block to look carefully at the dates, as some legit users have made multiple edits on the same day on those pages. I am suggesting that so the reviewer does not get mistaken and think that there was a large gap in the vandalism, as vandalism edit would be seen only 2 or 3 days before or after those large number of edits on that single day. Even after the protections of pages, they would still get vandalized, at a consistent amount. In my opinion, I do not think such pages about colors, which are literally probably easiest to come in mind thing for vandals, would have an end to its vandal edits,that is the main reason why I am asking for indef.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – IP address sock puppetry. Multiple IP addresses have made the same edit over the past month and that’s removing National Titles from the infobox. The fact that it’s been a different IP addresses each time makes it to warn or block but since it has been the same exact edit each time, it’s likely the same person doing it. I even tried using a hidden note and they ignored it and removed that too. Rockchalk717 22:13, 5 December 2018 (UTC)

Template:' (apostrophe)
Reduce to template-editor protection. Can't think of any reason this should be admin-only. Need to fix the kerning in it to match the rest of the templates in this series. PS: Any of them (listed at Template:Quotation mark templates) that do not have T-E protection should have it, since vandalizing any of them could affect quite a number of articles, guidelines, template documentation, etc. (possibly in ways that would escape notice for a while). Most of them have semi-protection, and several none at all. There's probably no reason for anyone but a T-E (or admin) to be editing these, as any changes to them need to be made consistently across the entire set all at once, and have a high risk of visually mangling the output if not done correctly. If any are protected at any level, then they all should match, to prevent wildly inconsistent "output forking". — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 22:36, 5 December 2018 (UTC)
- Not unprotected SMcCandlish I'd have been happy to do this (and will make any edits you specifically lay out for me to make), but as this page is listed on Wikipedia:Cascade-protected items/content, changing the protection level here will accomplish exactly nothing. Courcelles (talk) 13:50, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- Further, I have TE protected Template:′, Template:Double+single, Template:Single+single, Template:Double+single+double, Template:Single+double+single, Template:Space+double, Template:Double+space, Template:Space+single, Template:Space+parenthesis, and Template:Parenthesis+space per this request. All the other templates on the Quotation Marks page were either already TE, or were cascade protected. Courcelles (talk) 13:56, 6 December 2018 (UTC)
- @Courcelles: Thanks. As for the cascaded one, the specific change it needs is
style="padding-left:0.1em;"tostyle="padding-left:.15em;"(or0.15, though that's less concise) to match the rest of them. Since one would not be aware of the cascade protection without trying to actually edit the template one cannot edit (and then see the system-generated cascading protection notice), I've created{{Cascade-protected template}}for the /doc pages of such templates, to forestall more can't-do-what-you-ask requests like the one I made above. :-) In my own case I was having selective blindness, since I did actually open "View source" on it and mine eyes simply glazeth over at the size of the giant auto-generated editnotice, I guess. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 01:01, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Unprotection: I’m requesting that the edit protection be removed from this redirect as it is unclear why the redirect at its present title is protected. The original protector of the context hiding under the redirect’s history, Phil Sandifer, was banned five years ago and the current page protector, Anthony Appleyard, seems to have implemented the current protection 9 years ago due to the sole fact that the protection was present there before moving the edit history to its current title.

- Kintetsubuffalo - There were a few edits made in the beginning of October that you reverted, and There'sNoTime protected the article shortly afterwards for one month. Since the beginning of October, only one edit has been made to this article by a human, which was today and that you reverted. I do see past disruption (such as back in June, August, the beginning of September, etc.), but I see nothing recently that warrants protection of this article and right now. I understand that the disruption is frustrating and that you feel that it's ongoing and will continue, but we're obligated by policy to protect pages as a reactive measure to stop disruption that's currently occurring. Hence, I agree with Swarm's decision to decline adding protection to the article at this time. If the article starts to undergo a high rate of disruption by multiple users, please file another request and we'll be happy to take a look. Again, I completely understand your thoughts and where you stand on this matter and why, and I hope you understand the decision to hold off at this time and until things pick back up. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 08:05, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite Semi-protection: Consistent vandalism. In fact, the only edits this article seems to get at all are vandalism and reverts. A few weeks ago I requested indefinite page protection and only 1 week was given. The page saw no edits during that time. Now that the protection is gone the page is back to being vandalized. I only request "indefinite" protection because I do not know exactly what time is appropriate: I understand if admins are hesitant on giving indefinite protection, but I respectfully request longer than 1 week at least.

- Jack90s15 - I just noticed that the protection was set to expire today (in fact, it just expired right now). I've added protection back to the article for one month. Lets keep an eye on things, and if the disruption continues immediately after this protection expires - file a report to have it extended for a longer duration or let me know and I'll be happy to do that. I don't think we should jump straight to an indefinite application of semi-protection yet.

Temporary semi-protection: Recently, there have been significant contributions to non-registered editors. Though we generally assume good-faith in their edits, the article has become constantly influx and the page's structure is now always changing. Due to the conflicting edits and to prevent edit warring, I would propose that a Semi-protection be placed on the article for a time. Some editors have began deleting portions of the page and making significant edits without taking to the talk-page first. I have attempted reaching out to them to alert them of this mis-step, and constantly refer to WP:QUO when I revert one of their edits, to no avail. I have most recently reverted to the WP:QUO article format, and yet there are now edits stating that the article name is "Worlds of DC" when the talk page and note on the article was consensus-ed that there is no official title yet.--DisneyMetalhead (talk) 06:45, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

- I was asked to move Anti-abortion movements to Anti-abortion movement, and I did so. But first I moved an existing short edit history from Anti-abortion movement to Anti-abortion movement (version 2) to get it away from incoming, as leaving a deleted WP:parallel history sitting under a visible history is a risk. And the protection automatically followed the page as it was moved. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 05:54, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- Declined – This talk page, with the '(version 2)' suffix, is being kept around only as a repository for some of the talk page history. So it doesn't matter much what it is called. Lifting the move protection seems unnecessary. Note there are a bunch of other sub-pages with the same suffix. EdJohnston (talk) 06:31, 9 December 2018 (UTC)

Semi-protection: High level of IP vandalism -> The main article has been already protected twice due to persisent disruptive IP editing, now with a 3 weeks expiration by an admin. But after, the disruptive IP edits started to blank my created section for discussion on the talk page persistently, thus another acting administrator had to continously block various IP's...but this is not enough, since again another IP continues [27]...the first admin told me in case the talk page this matter continues, I should ask here further and higher protection for the article's talk page. KIENGIR (talk) 11:21, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
- Not done It's a talk page, not an article, so the threshold for protection is higher. If the IP is removing the message it doesn't matter as it's just for the IP's attention and you can safely assume that the message has been read. Fish+Karate 14:01, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Delete and then create-protect. Every single iteration of this draft has been written by a fairly obvious paid editor and a blatant advertisement (due to the users using the exact same promotional text each end every time; I suspect it's copyvio but whether it is or not is largely academic since the text is patently unsuitable). Right now the page is tagged for G11 again, hence my request to delete it and then salt. —A little blue Bori v^_^v Bori! 22:22, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: I've deleted the draft article as an obvious G11, but I don't see evidence to assert that the creators were in violation of policy by not disclosing themselves as paid editors. This page has been created and deleted four times if you include the creation and deletion per G13 on Draft:Itel mobile. I found that the revisions were nearly the same with the first two creations of this page; the users were most likely the same person (an account and an IP user). However, the content in this last creation that I just deleted is not similar to any of the others. COI? Maybe. Undisclosed paid editing though? That's a big stretch in my opinion. I'm going to leave the decision to SALT this draft page to another admin to decide. If this page does end up being salted, I'd recommend salting the other one too (with the lower-case 'm'). Best - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:38, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- Creation protected Both Draft:Itel mobile and Draft:Itel Mobile. It's enough in a short period. I didn't protect 'em, but in 2017 there were Itel Mobile and Itel mobile; presumably that these are drafts is the fruit of WP:ACPERM. ~ Amory (u • t • c) 04:09, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Unprotection: Draft:Zorin OS is supposed to be accepted by User:Vincent60030, but he cannot currently due to creation protection. HarryKernow. Talk. 04:58, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
- Apparently the admin is inactive. Shall we find you (Spinningspark) instead? VKZYLUFan (talk) (Mind the Gap!) 05:12, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
- Before unprotecting this, I would like to hear from the reviewer that he has looked at the two previous AFDs and believes the current article has addressed their concerns. In particular, I note the first two sources in the draft, Katherine Noyes' review and Distrowatch, were explicitly stated as not being sufficient to establish notability. I'm not saying this can't be posted, but given the very large number of previous deletions of this page, the sourcing needs to be reviewed very thoroughly indeed. As a minimum, I would want to know which sources in particular are now supposed to demonstrate notability and how they have gone beyond the sources available to the previous AFDs. Frankly, I would be more comfortable if this went through the Deletion review process rather than done as a unilateral admin action. SpinningSpark 13:40, 10 December 2018 (UTC)
- Declined – The reviewer, User:Vincent60030, has not placed any template on Draft:Zorin OS to approve its move to main space. His last reviewing comment was "Needs more secondary sources.

- Oppose: Highpeaks35 has been deleting sourced material repeateldy without consensus or without interacting with the talk page. For example, an random editor had replaced Riwat with SZABIST (Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto Institute of Science and Technology). I corrected the mistake, and Highpeaks35 reverted it or no apparent reason.

Auto-confirmed semi-protection: I've picked up a nasty sock puppet troll who likes to create accounts insulting me and post insults on my user talk page. I'm tired of waking up to notifications that this loser has yet again created a new throw-away account just to post childish insults about me where I can see.

@Mifter: that's the thing. This troll keeps contacting me with new accounts. At this point I don't have any interest at all in being contacted by unregistered users on my personal page for any reason. I am tired of my phone pinging at four in the morning with insults bad enough that several have been reversion deleted. If I can expect that contact from anybody other than an established Wikipedia editor is going to be malicious harassment, I don't want to be contacted by anybody other than an established Wikipedia editor.

- @Bearcat: pinging as protecting admin. Airplaneman ✈ 19:33, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: At the time, this was part of a concerted campaign by participants in the Vaughan municipal election to misuse Wikipedia as a venue for campaign brochures for their endorsed candidates — what was happening was that despite the result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Elliott Frankl, the same partisan campaigners would simply ignore the consensus and recreate the article again no matter how many times it got reverted back to a redirect. I don't have any strong opinion either way about whether it should still be protected in 2018 or not — although it's true that the 2006 election is long past, he was a candidate again in the 2018 election just a couple of months ago, so I wouldn't put it past him or his campaign staff to try again if they could. So I'd be more comfortable with unprotection if the prior edit history were deleted so that nobody can even try to restore the old article again — the possibility of a revived self-promotion campaign, while lower than it was at the time this was first protected, is still not entirely nonexistent. I'd also probably support just deleting it entirely, for the record, as his multiple campaigns mean there's an WP:XY problem now and his level of prominence isn't high enough to suggest that he's a particularly plausible search term in the first place.

- The organization has been designated a "banned association" since "they are part of Hamas's fundraising network, and both support and assist it".[29] As a banned organization (from one side of the conflict) - they are clearly in scope of the conflict. One could claim (and rightly so) that the Israel Police mainly does routine police work (which is probably at least 98% of what it does) - yet we have it in scope of ARBPIA since they are also involved in the conflict.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The nature of the article's subject gives vandals a lot of opportunity to engage in inappropriate humor. All edits are vandalism and reversion. Tellingly, there were two edits during the time the page was PC protected; vandalism and reversion. No one is actually contributing to the article. Last PC expired ≈ 1 month ago, and after that point the edit history lights up again. The operative word in this request is indefinite; this is an inherently vandalism-prone subject.

Indefinite semi-protection: Slow but steady IP disruptive editing. The bridge name is the subject of significant regional controversy and most disruptive edits have been related to that. But most importantly, this page has already had THREE periods of temporary semi-protection this year which solved the problem of disruptive editing but only while the semi-protection was in place. Each time the semi-protection has been lifted the IP disruptive editing has started back up again immediately. Most recently the semi-protection lifted on December 13th and the IP disruptive editing started back up again on the 14th only stopping once the IP editor was banned due to persistent edit warring. It is time to add indefinite semi-protection to this page. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. HudsonValley (talk) 05:32, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

- Do you mean you want to, say, print one dot per second, for a period of sixty seconds? If yes, you've just asked a question that turns out to be surprisingly complex. Your first problem is that output is buffered by things like the PHP interpreter and the operating system. This means when you call
echo, there's no guarantee the output will be printed right away. - A bigger problem is that this whole thing is not amenable to how the Web and Internet work. In real-world usage, PHP is mostly used for Web backends. In such a circumstance, what you actually want to do is load a page with some JavaScript that displays some kind of progress indicator to the user, and loads the result or sends the user to the desired page when ready. A common example is a throbber.
- You might be just learning and experimenting, and that's great. If this is just a simple problem for learning, and it turns out you don't care about exactly one dot per second, or things like getting interrupted by signals, you can just use
sleep(). But there aren't many real-world situations where you would need something like this. --47.146.63.87 (talk) 08:50, 18 December 2018 (UTC) - Not done Unfortunately that section you wanted to reply to was added by a banned user and was removed.

Temporary extended confirmed: Persistent disruptive editing – Disruptive editor who is removing sources, changing information without sources or with poor sources, made some style changes that were against WP:MOS.

Indefinite pending changes: Due to complications, my user page in the user space uses /main, and therefore, User:Redactyll/main is not protected by an edit filter, so I am requesting protection for it. However, instead of semi-protection which restricts everything from newer users, I am requesting pending changes protection, because then I can block out all bad edits, however still be able to have IPs constructively help on my user page, something I have seen before. I will take full responsibility for any backlog on my user page, and request that protection against new users who vandalize user pages (I saw it happen to me) is taken. Best regards, Redactyll Letsa taco 'bou it, son! 18:36, 18 December 2018 (UTC)

Template editor protection This template raises an interesting issue; counts produced by "What links here" and the template transclusion count tool are low, but that's because uses from Lua modules, in this case Module:Autotaxobox, aren't counted. The actual use is going to be more-or-less the same as that of the module, i.e. about 220,000. So please can it be given template editor protection. Peter coxhead (talk) 11:53, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite template protection: These templates are automatically substituted by the Page Curation Tool when a New Page Patroller takes particular actions. They are widely used and hard to keep track of, meaning that errors in them may go unnoticed or unresolved for some time, especially since they are watched by very few people. For example, {{Taggednote-NPF}} had an extra pair of braces at the end of the reviewer's username which took two days to find and resolve, with the error being substituted onto user talk pages in the meantime. It may not be worth protecting all of the pages in the category, but {{Taggednote-NPF}} and {{Taggednonote-NPF}} should at least be template protected so changes to these highly visible templates can be scrutinized more closely.

I chose semi-protection as that is the level that the wrapper templates have been recently protected at. If the protecting administrator feels that template editor protection is necessary, then I would want the admin to bear in mind that currently all modules are in alpha or beta with maintainers (such as Certes) who do not have template editor rights as of now, potentially slowing improvements. All these modules are used by a section of a portal and if they are vandalised, they would cause each portal linked to have a section effectively broken. Dreamy Jazz 🎷 talk to me | my contributions 13:20, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
- Semi-protection sounds reasonable to me. The modules aren't used widely (if at all) from the main namespace. Template editor protection would effectively prevent any further fixes or enhancements, at least for Module:Excerpt, as its authors wouldn't be able even to preview module changes ready to put in an edit request.

Indefinite (Pending-changes-protection OR semi-protection): Vandalism is persistent after end of every page protection. Almost every other edit is a revert after the last page protection has ended. The page log shows that the page has gone thru multiple page protections in its past, at one point even way back in this page's past it even had sys-op editing requirement. The last 3 most recent forms of page protection were semi-protections, of which the most recent one lasted for even THREE YEARS. As it can be seen in the pages recent history, the temporary semi-protection on the page had no effect at all. Also since the last page protection, there have been 5 edits that have been deleted from the page history, one being RD:2 and the other 4 being RD:1. I do not think vandalism is going to stop on this page. Aceing_Winter_Snows_Harsh_Cold (talk) 23:02, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

- Portal image banner has 352 transclusions - although this has a relatively low number of transclusions, this template will only appear once on each portal (due to the purpose of the template to show a banner image at the top of the portal), so if vandalised that is the number of portals would be messed up.

- Declined I am not seeing IP vandalism. I am seeing a lot of back-and-forth between you and another autoconfirmed editor, but semi-protection would not help with that. I suggest that, instead of just reverting the other person and calling them a troll, you talk to them on their talk page or the article's talk page - politely and without name calling. Point out why you believe your figures are correct and cite the source or whatever is your basis. Tell them they should not change the figures without providing a source. If they continue to add unsourced information, seek action against them, but try talking first. MelanieN (talk) 20:44, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Frequent (about every 6 days) semi-disruptive editing resulting in constant need to revert. The quality of this article seems to vary considerably depending on the day of the week. Additionally the article itself seems to be used in two separate ways, one to simply recount patriarchal society, and one as a proxy war between pro and anti feminists, due to its usage as a term in feminism in addition to anthropology. I'm not sure there's enough to merit a split between patriarchy(anthropology) and patriarchy(feminism), so for now it would be good to protect it. Ethanpet113 (talk) 09:14, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

- On December 22 I left a comment at BLPN, noting that no one had offered a meaningful defence of the excision, saying that, if no one offered a defence I would feel free to carefully restore the excised comment, and I started doing so, a few days later.
- vandalized the article [49], [50], using edit summaries that gave the surface appearance of reasonableness, but which were complete bullshit. This individual has made close to a hundred harrassing edits, as documented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Renamed user 49274c4c204245204241434b/Archive.

- Comment: This is a content dispute, whereby User:notJackhorkheimer has parachuted in after a long absence to edit war with multiple editors. He's already at three reversions. --Calton | Talk 08:13, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: unsourced contentious content should be removed, and when someone removes it while pointing out it's unsourced you should cite a source or find one, instead of reverting it and making an irrelevant edit comment like "welcome back." To describe insisting on sources as edit warring is asinine, especially when you're the one reverting the removal without providing a source. I "parachuted in" to find the sources of the article virtually unchanged but the unsourced contentious claim inserted by an anonymous editor a few months ago, with user:Calton reinserting it every time it was removed, despite the lack of sourcing. user:PeterTheFourth has at least finally provided a source to the contentious claim which had been in the article for months, but it's still too poor sourcing to justify Wikipedia presenting it as a statement of fact, as PeterTheFourth and Calton insist. --notJackhorkheimer (talk / contribs) 13:44, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
- Actually, I just added some sources which had been somehow lost in the page history back in as references for this part. It's the same sources (plus one) as when you originally removed this a year ago. PeterTheFourth (talk) 13:57, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
- Declined - This is a content dispute, but where one user is reverting changes vs a number of other editors. The user unilaterally in opposition (NotJackhorkheimer) has been warned for edit warring; if it continues, report the user to AN3. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 14:17, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
- Comment: It's a mischaracterization to describe my change as "unilateral" when several other editors have removed the "neo-Nazi" description saying it was unsourced, which it was. I also feel it unfair to describe insisting on sourcing contentious accusations as "edit warring", while ignoring the two other editors' reinsertion of the claim despite lacking sourcing. If anyone wants to report me because they want to preserve a faulty contentious claim in a WP:BLP I'm happy to have that discussion, though. --notJackhorkheimer (talk / contribs) 18:51, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

Protection from this article should be removed because only 1 editor was guilty of edit warring. See my discussion with the protecting admin here at User_talk:Ymblanter#Rafale deal controversy, it is well evident that only one editor was edit warring against 5 different editors to restore his preferred version without getting consensus even after being warned for edit warring. Protecting the version upon the request of the edit warring editor[51] who has made 7 reverts in 4 days to restore his version does not fit well at all with WP:FULL. We should not be encouraging this disruptive behavior of edit warring. Even on talk page, this particular editor is only attacking other contributors.[52] Shivkarandholiya12 (talk) 13:15, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
