Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Reason: Persistent IP vandalism (transfer rumors) BlameRuiner (talk) 07:06, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User(s) blocked: 2405:3800:0:0:0:0:0:0/32 (talk · contribs) blocked by Daniel Case. for a week. Daniel Case (talk) 20:11, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: The Wikipedia page for Bleona, an Albanian singer and entertainer, has been subjected to frequent edits and vandalism over the years, leading to concerns about the accuracy of the information presented. Due to the nature of Wikipedia being an open-source platform where anyone can contribute, there have been instances where individuals have deliberately changed key facts or introduced incorrect details, sometimes to mislead fans or tarnish the artist's reputation. These edits may include fabricated information or exaggerated claims, which can distort the public’s perception of Bleona's career and personal life.

The protection of the Bleona Wikipedia page has become necessary to prevent further harm caused by such misinformation. By restricting editing access to trusted contributors, Wikipedia can better ensure that the information about Bleona remains accurate and reliable. This protection helps safeguard fans from being misled and ensures that the page reflects the true nature of her achievements and contributions to music and entertainment. Given the high potential for misinformation on celebrity pages, such protective measures are critical for maintaining the integrity of Wikipedia as a resource and preventing the spread of false narratives that can damage public figures' reputations.

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Bbb23 (talk) 16:49, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite move protection. Sergiogriffiths (talk) 21:33, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined We don't normally preemptively protect pages. Looking at the logs for your talk page, there's been no attempts to move it before. --Hammersoft (talk) 21:56, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – subject of unofficial sports transaction. Will120 (talk) 23:21, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – The protection level should be upgraded to EC for the same reason that the page Steps discography is - unfortunately, semi-protection proves ineffective at stopping the "Hanoi vandal" LTA from attacking this page, as they will then game the autoconfirmed permission on old burner accounts to bypass the semi-protection and continue with their disruptive edits. Although they've only made one edit with just one account so far which has already been blocked, it's only a matter of time before they fully restore their edits using another AC-gamed throwaway account. Worth noting that the previous EC protections on this page were also because of this one LTA. — AP 499D25 (talk) 23:36, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Indefinite semi-protection. Unconstructive edits. 50.100.44.204 (talk) 23:41, 10 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This is not a sandbox. Myrealnamm (💬Let's talk · 📜My work) 00:09, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. There appears to have been one nonconstructive edit since September. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 00:32, 11 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
