Semi protect user pages and user talk pages + block IP

Hi!

I request semi protection of the following pages:

• User:1000mm
• User talk:1000mm – and the current page (and history) deleted
• User:Znuddel
• User talk:Znuddel
• User:Anne-Sophie Ofrim
• User talk:Anne-Sophie Ofrim – and the current page deleted

These users are sysops on nowiki, Anne-Sophie is also sysop on nnwiki.

The last weeks we have all been targets of harassments from various IPs (same person) because the person’s IP was blocked on nowiki due to vandalism and harassment. The IPs have continued the harassment on nnwiki, svwiki, dawiki, enwiki and simple-enwiki. See en:WP:LONGTERM#Request for LTA listing for details.

Earlier today both mine and Znuddel’s user and user talk pages got a semi protection on enwiki, see en:User talk:1000mm.

Blocking

• 91.26.124.18 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) – this is the IP that vandalized my and Anne-Sophie’s talk pages this afternoon.

1000mm (talk) 14:50, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Please implement these protections. Znuddel (talk) 15:15, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

@1000mm: I have indefinitely semi-protected your user page. I semi-protected your talk page for a week, because we don't indefinitely protect talk pages.

@Znuddel: Your talk page is already gone. You don't have a user page here. It looks like you do, but it just displays your meta user page.

Anne-Sophie will need to make the request for her own pages. -- Auntof6 (talk) 15:21, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank you!1000mm (talk) 16:50, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

@1000mm has it started elsewhere yet? There are other tools that might be more suitable and could assist. XXBlackburnXx (talk) 18:01, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

@XXBlackburnXx, the IP address mentioned here posted on both my and Znuddel’s talk pages at dewiki, but it was deleted pretty quick. Then the IP was globally blocked by steward EPIC because of open proxy.

Other IP addresses used by the same person has been blocked for some days on most projects it has happened. Same IP has posted the exact same nonsense garbage that resulted in indefinite block on nowiki a while ago – this block being the reason he tries to take revenge over nowiki sysops elsewhere – on our talk pages in several wiki projects earlier this week.

I, or we, appreciate your efforts and willingness to fight this, if needed. Thanks! 1000mm (talk) 18:21, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Requesting protection of User talk:Iggy the Swan

I'm not used to navigating this Wikipedia to find the correct page, but I think this is more likely to be the right place than others. My talk page has been a regular target of accounts which has introduced nonsense topics which gets reverted by proper well-behaved users. These sort of events only seems to happen on the same day of the week. October in particular has been a recurring problem. Iggy the Swan (talk) 15:49, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Iggy the Swan, you got to the right place, so no worries on that end.  Done for a year as your page has experienced excessive vandalism especially considering you are not that active here currently. Feel free to ask if you need it renewed once it expires. Thanks! --Ferien (talk) 15:51, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Yes, thanks. I'm active mostly on the more complex English version. One year seems a good duration. Iggy the Swan (talk) 15:53, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Please protect Fascism

The article is constantly vandalized by history revisioners and pov pushers. It was vandalized 6 times in the last two days, and it's always the same kind of vandalism. Not only it gets vandalized that often, but it's one of the most read articles and it has serious real-life consequences. It's ruining our reputation at this point, read these comments: a user saw a vandalized version, believing it was the "official" one, further comment, my reply. ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 13:33, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

  I already removed the SPLC paragraph alleged to have constituted a possible copyright violation. I have never heard of or visited the website you mentioned above. The text concerned was quoted from the SPLC article itself which had been put in proper quotation in my article, so I do not see that it actually constituted a copyright violation, but to err on the safe side, I removed it. Moreover, I believe that I should have at least been informed of any of such issues and given an opportunity to fix it. Steven1991 (talk) 02:47, 26 October 2024 (UTC)

Only two creations under the new title, so I think it should be kept as it is for now, however if the article is repeatedly created, it should probably be added to the MediaWiki:Titleblacklist if it's being created under numerous names as otherwise they will just hop about from pagename to pagename. --Ferien (talk) 22:34, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Request for admin review of COVID-19_pandemic_in_British_Columbia

Hello. I have just been looking through New Changes, without registered users showing up, and I've seen this article being edited by an IP address user. The talk page for the IP reveals that they have previously been blocked in relation to the article which they are creating, and it's been deleted at least once. The IP address is User:162.156.70.174, and it also shows their last block as being little more than a week ago. The user appears to be rewording the article, but still seems to be having competency issues with regard to references, layout and wording. I'm wondering if an admin would be kind enough to check the article to see that everything the author is doing, is acceptable within the standards for writing an article please? I would appreciate your thoughts and help. Thank you - DaneGeld (talk) 21:10, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

@DaneGeld I have blocked the user for now. I don't have time to check the entire article currently but I don't see any significant improvement from the last time it was edited by the IP. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 21:58, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

The content on their talk page seemed disruptive but the article itself seems totally different than the content on the talk page. Depextual (talk) 22:34, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

I did not say that the content is the same, but it still has the same issues that caused the user to be blocked before:

• Despite the challenges, British Columbians showed resilience and care for each other
• The holiday season was marked by pleas for caution...
• This period saw a cautious re-opening of the economy and a tentative return to normalcy.
• Despite this, vaccination rates continued to rise, offering hope for a more stable future.

None of this is language that should be used on an encyclopedia.

The fact that they are blocked on the English Wikipedia for similar disruptive behaviour around related topics does not help. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 00:43, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

Add to blacklist 2

Please add this external link to the blacklist:

• articlegenerator.org

While new changes patrolling, I am seeing IPs remove this from articles because they are being put here as references. This "reference" might make readers question the reliability of our articles or may think our articles are AI-generated. Aster🪻 ^{talk edits} 18:08, 31 October 2024 (UTC)

@BZPN @Asteralee for all of the blacklist request above: Blacklisting is an extreme measure that should only be done if URLs to the website have been heavily abused. There's a reason why the English Wikipedia doesn't blacklist Fandom, Quora, or StackExchange. Additionally, the spam blacklist applies to all namespaces. I can see some uses of having these links in discussion pages. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 23:16, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

@Fehufanga, on none of the pages you will not find links to articlegenerator.org and dangiyash.top - these links were used for spam and should be blocked. Besides, there is another way to solve the problem of domain blacklisting - you can write AbuseFilter, which will block adding these domains in the main namespace :).

2024 U.S. presidential election protection

Seeing how the 2024 United States presidential election is tomorrow, I believe it is best to protect this article as it may be a target for vandalism/unsourced material being added throughout the whole week. I also believe that associated pages like Kamala Harris (and her campaign), JD Vance, Tim Walz, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the Donald Trump 2024 presidential campaign also be protected as they are highly associated with the election and may also be prone to vandalism throughout the week. TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 15:17, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi. Could one of the admin please check the deletion history for Daotian Middle School please? I don't know how to search the logs myself, and I'm not sure if I can. It's currently up for deletion as non-notable, but I think it qualifies for Quick Deletion under A4, as a non-notable service; if I'm reading the rules correctly, if it's previously been nominated for QD, and failed, it has to go to RFD. I need to find out if it's previously been created and failed a QD, because if it hasn't, I'll nominate it. Thank you. DaneGeld (talk) 21:42, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

@QuicoleJR: Thanks. I'll take care of them now. I can delete them with AWB, which is much easier than deleting them individually. -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:29, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

@QuicoleJR: Well, I'll take care of some of them now -- there were over 900! They're get taken care of eventually, because they show up at Special:BrokenRedirects. -- Auntof6 (talk) 20:47, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

It looks like they're gone now. Thanks, Ferien! -- Auntof6 (talk) 01:06, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911 You can click the "what links here" button on the page to see the pages that link to it, then manually add it to your article. 2601:402:4400:3A90:1A65:8685:647F:29F3 (talk) 22:10, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

I cilcked it and there is only seven items Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 22:11, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911 You can add those links (except the link to the admin's noticeboard) to the article. Also, a topic like these go to the Simple Talk, not the administrator's noticeboard. 2601:402:4400:3A90:1A65:8685:647F:29F3 (talk) 22:16, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

Please don't add things to Related pages just because they link to the article. Give it more thought than that. Thanks. -- Auntof6 (talk) 23:49, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

@Auntof6 Okay, they are linked? Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 10:30, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911: I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. However, I removed the related pages section you added. Some articles don't need a related pages section, and the things you added didn't seem to be needed. -- Auntof6 (talk) 11:42, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@Auntof6 I understood of your questions, Many Articles need a related pages selection, However Some Articles doesn't need a related pages selection, In some cases, Many Articles are doesn't need a related pages selection for 24 Hours I didn't understand in the past but now i understood. Thank you so much of your questions Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 11:59, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911 This is not an issue that can only be handled by administrators. You could have added the section yourself. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 22:21, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

That not link, it "Related pages" Means 3 Suggested Article and There is No Related Page, I think it's issues but no just link Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 22:24, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

@Fehufanga hello, answer Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 22:29, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911 Please be more patient in such trivial questions. Fehufanga has absolutely no obligation to reply to you. 2601:402:4400:3A90:1A65:8685:647F:29F3 (talk) 22:30, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

IP This is not link it Related Pages means 3 suggested articles in inside of article, after i moved it gone and no related pages Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 22:32, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

IP I fixed myself by adjusted a categories you don't need fix me Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 22:39, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

You know, I believe Raayaan is talking about the three "related pages" that appear below a page on a mobile device, not the related pages added by editors. I also noticed that Ali Al-Bulaihi doesn't have those, compared to other pages like Mathematics, which do. Depextual (talk) 01:11, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@Depextual Can you recover me please Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 06:32, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

It's because the page isn't (wasn't) patrolled. I've done this for you at this stage. For future reference, the best place for info about this sort of thing is simple talk. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 10:27, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Protection request

IP users have recently been targeting the page Mario. If you look at the revision history, you can see several attempts at violent vandalism. I request that the page be semi-protected to prevent this from continuing. SleepDeprivedGinger (talk) 20:20, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@SleepDeprivedGinger Per similar request 2601:402:4400:3A90:A1CA:F934:9968:BF44 (talk) 20:24, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Oh, my mistake. I didn't notice that request. Should this one be deleted? SleepDeprivedGinger (talk) 20:26, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Listed and closure date has been updated. BRP ^ever 00:15, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@BRPever It didn't work. The pages will show 7 days after the time that they are viewed, not 7 days after you edited them. Depextual (talk) 00:21, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Well, they will probably show 7 days after they were last purged or edited. Depextual (talk) 00:22, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean? I manually listed them and then updated the closure date as 7 days from today. BRP ^ever 00:24, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@BRPever If you look at the wikitext, they just say

{{{{{|safesubst:}}}#time: H:i, j F Y "(UTC)"|+7 days}}

As it's not actually substituted, it will always show the time 7 days in the future. Depextual (talk) 00:28, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Ah, fixed.-BRP ^ever 00:45, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Depextual: In the future, you might want to contact the people who created the unlisted RfDs and let them know they have to list them. It doesn't really require an admin.

@Mr.Hanes and Kuskrey: Please take note: when you create an RfD, you need to list it at the page indicated above. You should also notify the page creator that the RfD has been created. -- Auntof6 (talk) 00:41, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

My bad , I notified the page creator but forgot to list them will do list RFDs in future Mr.Hanes (talk) 03:54, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

ok, Sure will follow your instructions Ksy 05:58, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Mr.Hanes, @Kuskrey: Thanks to both of you! If you have any questions about the process, feel free to ask. -- Auntof6 (talk) 07:25, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911 This is the Simple English Wikipedia, not the English Wikipedia. Make a report on the English Wikipedia's sockpuppetry investigations page, not here. Simple English Wikipedia admins are not automatically admins the English Wikipedia, unless you happen to be an admin at both wikis. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 06:41, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

@Fehufanga, I can't make report in Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations because my account, check in my user talk page in English Wikipedia Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 16:08, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

@Raayaan9911 My advice is that you should stay away from anything to do with the English Wikipedia here, because of your block. Do not report incidents on the English Wikipedia here. — *Fehufangą ♮ ✉ Talk page 22:34, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

@Fehufanga, My account is Blocked Mistake and Misunderstood. I don't report in English Wikipedia here, I don't edit in English Wikipedia and I don't do anything that restricted in English Wikipedia until My Block is Lifted, I understood a Wikipedia Rules in English Wikipedia. Thank you Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 22:42, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

[non-administrator comment]. If you are blocked from the English Wikipedia, you should not report English Wikipedia issues elsewhere. The two projects are not tied in that way. As an English Wikipedia admin I wouldn't feel comfortable making edits suggested from people blocked. See proxy editing Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 15:52, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

@Lee Vilenski, I wouldn't report issue in English Wikipedia Raayaan9911 Talk to me! 16:03, 16 November 2024 (UTC)
