Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

The Lorax (film)[edit]

Reason: You can give this article some pending changes protection. I see a persistent amount of inappropriate humorous edits to this article (it is likely to be vandalism, but I am not sure) by IP editors, but I doubt that it is enough for semi-protection.

I do not even know if it is protected or not, since when I add the template for a protection icon/banner, it shows me nothing, not even if the article has pending changes protection.

The last time it was protected was from 18 May 2023 to 18 August 2023, and it could have had pending changes protection either in the meantime or after the expiration of the semi-protection. I do not know.

In summary, to curb current disruptive editing by IP editors, I think pending changes protection (to review all edits by new and unregistered users before they are visible to everyone) should be applied to reduce the need to block IP addresses (and many different addresses are involved there too).

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. The article is already pending-changes protected (you cam see this via "view history", and then "view logs for this page". Lectonar (talk) 12:23, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Thank you. CarlFilip19 (talk) 12:24, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Claude Monet[edit]

Hit Me Hard and Soft[edit]

Reason: It is imperative to protect the page for the new album Hit Me Hard and Soft by American singer and Grammy-winning artist Billie Eilish due to the numerous edits coming from anonymous/unsigned accounts with biased editorial and unreliable sources. The page is currently unprotected, allowing anyone to freely edit it. Hence, protection for this page is essential in the upcoming months.. Newpicarchive (talk) 13:43, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

CiccioGamer89[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Frequently vandalised by IP editors over the past several weeks. — AP 499D25 (talk) 14:06, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First Chechen War[edit]

Reason: Continuous biased editing by rolling IPs with no sources/discussion. Per discussion: Talk:First_Chechen_War#This_article_is_impossible GreenC 14:39, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please enforce WP:CT/EE. --IanDBeacon (talk) 15:01, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Enzo Maresca[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism and addition of unsourced information to BLP following speculation in press. Egghead06 (talk) 15:12, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of two weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Bbb23 (talk) 16:09, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tel al-Sultan airstrikes[edit]

Reason: I'm requesting extended confirmation protection for the page. This is a current event receiving widespread coverage, as part of the Israel-Hamas War, which is a highly contentious topic. JohnAdams1800 (talk) 15:15, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since there is no stable name and both variants are controversial, WP:TITLECHANGES instructs us to default to the original title, which in this case is Tel al-Sultan massacre. Dylanvt (talk) 15:46, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mister Supranational 2024[edit]

Reason: Recent sockpuppetry and IP interference with efforts to make articles conform to WP quality standards regarding formatting and sourcing. Reversion without stated rationale. Pages covered by WP:GS/PAGEANTS community sanctions. ☆ Bri (talk) 15:36, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tel al-Sultan massacre[edit]

Reason: Requesting move protection. Per WP:TITLECHANGES we should default to the original name until conensus is reached. Vandals have moved it a couple times against that policy to "Tel al-Sultan airstrikes". Dylanvt (talk) 15:38, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose: The article title would violate NPOV. I have been moving the title back to Tel al-Sultan airstrikes. JohnAdams1800 (talk) 15:40, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's not for you to decide, that's for a move discussion to decide. Dylanvt (talk) 15:44, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

South Melbourne FC[edit]

Reason: High level of IP Vandalism. Dxeano (talk) 16:08, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 16:12, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
