[edit]- 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)

Not a violation of the username policy. Real names are permitted except when they imply that the editor is a specific living person they are not. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. PhilKnight (talk) 14:49, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi or ECP protection: Editor (and some likely MEAT or SOCK accounts) repeatedly adding WP:BLP questionable and WP:OR content already reverted several times in the past couple of weeks despite being advised why doing so is problematic and being encouraged to use the talk page to discuss in edit summaries and at User talk:InklingF#Hulleys of Baslow page. Editor in question is quickly approaching 3RR so perhaps some short-term WP:SEMI or WP:ECP will encourage them to use the article's talk page and help them avoid a block for edit warring. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:23, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

- Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Materialscientist (talk) 15:37, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Persistent disruptive editing and potential for edit warring due to the politically sensitive nature of the topic. The page has seen repeated attempts to add unsourced or biased content.

Reason: The article has experienced persistent disruptive editing due to the politically sensitive nature of Akre District, which is disputed between the Iraqi Federal Government and the Kurdistan Regional Government.

Semi-protection is requested to prevent further vandalism and ensure the article’s integrity. 78.101.242.98 (talk) 11:50, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]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.
Reason: In October 2017, this page about a beloved British TV presenter was made "EXTENDED CONFIRMED PROTECTION" due to aggressive sock puppetry. I would like to see this page down to semi-protection due to little vandalism over almost eight years. Frankster04 (talk) 21:29, 5 June 2025 (UTC)
- That's circular reasoning. The fact that there is little vandalism simply means the protection is working as it should. Also, did you follow the instructions at the top of this page and ask the protecting administrator? ~Anachronist (talk) 22:35, 5 June 2025 (UTC)
Reason: This article about the UK boxer has been extended confirmed protection since a May 2018 spell of block evasion-induced vandalism. I’d like to see this page downgraded to semi-protection due to both little vandalism and his high profile (many high profile celebs' articles are semi-protected). Frankster04 (talk) 21:33, 5 June 2025 (UTC)
- Please read the instructions at the top. You're supposed to ask the protecting administrator first, but I'll do it here. @Orangemike: what say you? ~Anachronist (talk) 22:34, 5 June 2025 (UTC)
- For what it is worth, I think this is probably a good candidate to reduce to SP. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 00:23, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
- Sounds good to me. --Orange Mike | Talk 15:26, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
Unprotection: 15 years of protection with little vandalism or disruption and protecting admin is retired. Thepharoah17 (talk) 10:12, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Only 56 transclusions. Not enough for template protection. 2A0E:1D47:9085:D200:B760:276F:5BA6:1929 (talk) 10:31, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]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.
