Church of South India

• Church of South India (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: Wiki page for the Church of South India has been getting vandalized recently. It would be really appreciated if a semi-protection was applied. The church is now in crisis, and the information that needs to be updated is a lot. There is not much users to check on the page for vandals. Jacobjh55 (talk) 22:26, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Sam Smith

• Talk:Sam Smith (edit | subject | history | links | watch | logs)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – We have an IP hopping troll who keeps on reinserting the same abusive "request". It is not nice to lock anonymous users out of a Talk page, particularly given that there is another IP who is being helpful in reverting the troll, but maybe it is worth it in this case, just for a few hours, until the troll gets bored. DanielRigal (talk) 23:19, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:22, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for thinking of me (and other IP users)! I agree with you, but believe that being unable to edit a page for a couple of days is a small price to pay for less disruptive editing of that page :-) 2A00:23C5:50E8:EE01:79FB:BC74:BEDF:FF0C (talk) 23:32, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent disruptive editing which includes breaking of cite tags, addition of non-English text and large synopsis. Telenovelafan215 (talk) 00:25, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

• To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
• Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
• Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
• If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.

Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

• Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
• Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
• Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
• If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
• This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

2024 Iranian strikes in Israel

• 2024 Iranian strikes in Israel (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

The middle portion of the lede repeats the phrase "sho(o)t down" five times in close succession, which to my ear is past the point at which it starts to grate. Plus, "shot down in space" is conceptually questionable. Suggest diluting this with near-synonyms such as "destroy", "intercept", "neutralize", and maybe "down", "bring down", et cetera. - 2A02:560:59A1:EF00:A1F4:52E0:466E:8128 (talk) 08:51, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I'm not going to go as far as replacing verbs with synonyms (read WP:ELEVAR), but I made a small edit to reduce the repetition a bit. I can't promise the edit will "stick" on such a heavily edited page, of course. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 00:36, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
