  • OfficialAmericanBeauty (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as implying shared use (see edits). ☆ Bri (talk) 05:10, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
  • Tosin Salako (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. Has declared that they are not Tosin Salako but are representing him professionally. They must change their user name. The only way to ensure this is a warning shot. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 21:04, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
    The account is representing an artist by that name. We allow real names, but in this case it's their employer's/client's real name rather than their own. What do others think? Secretlondon (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
    Well, WP:REALNAME states Do not edit under a name that is likely to imply that you are (or are related to) a specific, identifiable person, unless it is your real name. Think that's pretty clear. For example, what if Salako splits from this person. Who controls the account? — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:51, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
    On top of that, WP:REALNAME states: "If a username implies that the user is, or is related to, a notable, identifiable or well-known person, the account may be blocked as a precaution against impersonation until the user's proof of identity is provided." Anyone can claim to be a representative of a well-known person, so such a claim would also require proof to satisfy this portion of the policy. I'm holding off from immediately blocking due to the discussion initiated at User talk:Tosin Salako § Immediate action required, but the account should be blocked if its username is not changed to a policy-compliant one in a reasonable amount of time. — Newslinger talk 21:35, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
    Should be blocked if they are not the named person(even if they are a representative). 331dot (talk) 09:10, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
    They've not edited since 3 June. Secretlondon (talk) 13:53, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
  • SkibidiOhio5 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Disruptive username. Username sounds similar to the usernames of the so-called "Skibidi vandal", a long-term vandal with multiple accounts that had usernames like this and would vandalize pages by replacing them with the phrase "Goofy ahh brainrot:skull:" among other things. RaschenTechner (talk) 15:24, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
    (Non-administrator comment) For what it's worth "skibidi" and "ohio" are normal memes outside of the world of Wikipedia vandalism. I'd honestly be surprised if there weren't multiple legitimate accounts with both words in their username already. This user doesn't appear to have vandalized at all. — Tony talk 01:43, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
    This is very common youth slang and is not an indication that they are the Skibidi vandal. They also haven't edited since May. Patient Zerotalk 01:44, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
    Stale: This account has not been used in the last 2–3 weeks. Also, not a violation. Target stores sell Skibidi Toilet paraphernalia these days. Cullen328 (talk) 06:02, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for increase in protection level

Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Reason: Infinite extended confirmed protection Arbitration enforcement, it about the Arab-Israeli conflict. ArtopiaBoy (talk) 02:10, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Vandalism. Long semiprotection needed. Island92 (talk) 04:36, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – The edit warring here continues. Perhaps implement a higher level of restriction for a month as her album is released today. Karst (talk) 08:49, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 08:58, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent vandalism of the page related to indigenous culture and content. Repeated disruptive editing, especially from anonymous users. Requesting semi-protection or extended confirmed protection to maintain page integrity. Titi7000 (talk) 12:42, 6 June 2025 (UTC) [1]. [2]

Reason: Requesting semi protection. Lot of IP edits on content dispute especially with bio. Only requesting a brief protection due to the NYC primary approaching and more media coverage. Malibukenz (talk) 14:44, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism, disruptive editing and addition of unsourced content (and violation of MOS:TV/WP:TVGUIDE over long term period of time. livelikemusic (TALK!) 23:57, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Per ARBPIA5, PIA articles ECR by default. Longhornsg (talk) 02:00, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Per WP:RUSUKR: Only extended-confirmed editors may make edits related to the topic area. Many edits are in violation of this policy, so it appears that protection is necessary. Yours truly, Stuffinwriting | talk | sign | contributions 04:49, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Edit warring again, previously involving another user, now with IP, the same involved editor, looks to be exhibiting ownership issues and that other is always wrong, they're always right. Paper9oll (🔔📝) 10:55, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Comes under WP:ARBPIA. Entranced98 (talk) 13:51, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Related to WP:ARBPIA. Entranced98 (talk) 13:53, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Frequent unsourced changes to wind speeds, primarily from IPs, over the last few months. This has been an apparent majority of edits to the page. Departure– (talk) 15:23, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Materialscientist (talk) 01:42, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Years' worth of additions of completely unsourced material (or additions of retired equipment, beyond the article's WP:SCOPE). The article is covered by WP:ARBEE and was semi-protected in the past. Amanuensis Balkanicus (talk) 18:47, 7 June 2025 (UTC). Amanuensis Balkanicus (talk) 18:47, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent unreferenced edits from IP users. Hotwiki (talk) 03:59, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Kiran Rathod page vandalism

The article Kiran Rathod has recently been subject to repeated malicious edits, falsely labeling her as an adult actress without reliable sources. Some of the content given in the page is also false and I have the consent of the person in subject to raise this issue of maligning, misinformation and labelling her.This violates Wikipedia's BLP (Biographies of Living Persons) policy.

I request semi-protection to prevent further vandalism and defamation. See the edit history for examples.

Thank you. Bharath75 (talk) 05:13, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on 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.

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism. Migfab008 (talk) 08:39, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Not done on procedural grounds. It was a request to increase, without knowing that the page was already extended-confirmed protected at the time of request. It's now template-editor protected, which is dubious from a policy point of view, but undoing that requires talking to Materialscientist. Sdrqaz (talk) 00:59, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Unprotection: This article has been semi-protected since 2007. I doubt this very low-profile article will be the target of a lot of disruption after nearly 18 years have past, having seen only 9 edits from 2020 to 2025 and a whopping 941 views in the past year (see here). The protecting administrator hasn't been active since 2012. This also doesn't fall under WP:CT/A-I, despite the context subject. BriDash9000 (talk) 17:20, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Unprotection: Article was protected in 2021 for vandalism. I have found no evidence that this vandal is still active, and the article seems unlikely to become a vandalism magnet again over four years later it was also Wikipedia:General sanctions/COVID-19 I think is time to unprotect this article. 47.21.129.66 (talk) 01:09, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: I think it's been long enough. 2603:8080:600:AADE:5C90:5D32:294E:8565 (talk) 01:17, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

Request a specific edit to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting 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.

WP:RFPERM (rollback)

Rollback

I'm 2RDD, I've been actively contributing to Wikipedia for a year and have a good understanding of its policies and guidelines. I'm interested in becoming a rollbacker to help maintain the quality and integrity of Wikipedia's content. I've demonstrated my ability to resolve conflicts and address vandalism in a constructive manner. I'm committed to using my rollbacker tools responsibly and in accordance with Wikipedia's policies. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to contribute to Wikipedia's maintenance and upkeep. Thank you 2RDD (talk) 21:53, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm dropping a request here aswell. Please do consider me request for the Rollback Permission. Thanks. Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 00:46, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment)Hi, Cameremote! I see that you only have 5 undos in total. Are sure that you have read the criteria for rollback carefully? It's only granted to users who have some experience in dealing with vandalism. If you want to withdraw this request, you can type {{withdrawn}} in the wikitext mode. Cheers! Ɔþʱʏɾɪʊs 10:21, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello there, I am requesting rollback permission. With my contributions, I am particular with BLP articles. I know what unconstructive edits are. I read the guidelines, and I am also aware of what the difference is between good faith and disruptive. I do, but I'm not very good at patrolling recent changes due to my devices' capabilities, but I want to contribute to decreasing vandalism in Wikipedia to the best that I can. I have read the guidelines for rollback permission, and I guarantee you that I will have the responsibility of having this permission. Thank you. - ArćRèvtalk 11:34, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello! I am requesting rollback rights to aid in reverting vandalism. I am mostly requesting the permission to use tools like Huggle and AntiVandal. I have read through the relevant policies and belive I meet the requirements for rollbacker. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to ask me. Best wishes, Macaw*! 16:58, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

I'm requesting rollback to use tools such as Antivandal & M:SWViewer. My previous request was pretty messed up. This userright will be very helpful to me in reverting Vandalism. Thanks! Ɔþʱʏɾɪʊs 09:57, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

I am back again. A little bit ago, I requested this right, and it was denied because it was not old enough.[1] My account is now one month old and I have extended confirmed permissions.[2] I was wondering if that is enough to get me this permission, thanks. ExplorerofSpace (talk) 23:01, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user has had 2 requests for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([1][2]). MusikBot talk 23:10, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
When looking at my request, please review prior requests for further reasoning. ExplorerofSpace (talk) 12:55, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello! As I started to edit in Wikipedia (music), I have seen a lot of vadalisms (or bad edits) from some articles. But if one user spoiled it by multiple times, I have to rollback one by one, which takes a lot of time. So I request this permisson to make rollback for vadal easier, thanks!
