Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Short-term disruption, including anon editors adding poorly sourced accusations. -- LuK3 (Talk) 20:54, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@LuK3: Admins don't have much time or background knowledge to investigate some issues. I can see a bunch of new editors enthusiastically editing, but they seem to be removing stuff which (at a glance) seems reasonable to remove. I don't see anything relevant on talk. Please identify some problematic recent edits with a brief explanation, preferably on article talk and point to that from here. Johnuniq (talk) 05:04, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Declined I concur with Johnuniq's post. Lectonar (talk) 07:06, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It was more of unexplained content/material removal and addition of promotional content (see [1] and [2]) but I have no problem with the decline. -- LuK3 (Talk) 12:01, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

List of Thomas & Friends railway engines

• List of Thomas & Friends railway engines (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Semi-prtoection: Some unknown user kept adding narrow-engines, non-rail vehicles, and rolling stock (like coaches and cranes) on this page. These types of characters are already on different pages. Here are the pages those characters are already on:

• List of Thomas & Friends narrow gauge engines
• Arlesdale Railway
• Rolling stock (Thomas & Friends)
• Non-rail vehicles (Thomas & Friends)

Every time I revert these changes, this unknown user kept putting them back up. This edit war is getting out of control. I can't take it anymore this page must be protected. Martinc1994 (talk) 07:18, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism – The article is already a good article but few IPs are vandalizing it too frequently.

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.

East Turkistan Government in Exile

• East Turkistan Government in Exile (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Unprotection: It's been about 9 years since this page redirect was protected and there exists another page East Turkistan Government-in-Exile. It's probably OK to unprotect now; and remove the re-direct to Anwar Yusuf Turani. It would be best to either delete this page or merge it with the existing East Turkistan Government-in-Exile page.

@Sandstein: as the protecting admin. Woody (talk) 08:45, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've edited the protected page to redirect it to East Turkistan Government-in-Exile. I'll let Sandstein lift the protection, however. El_C 19:58, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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.
