Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

DAMAC Properties[edit]

Reason: The page has been under a malicious attack with false and controversial (politically inclined) information being added by multiple editors, which seems to be connected with the current massive spam attack on the Dubai’s real estate industry. To avoid further vandalism, full protection is requested for the page Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 12:10, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tara.ghorayeb:, as I wrote on your talk page, the article's talk page is there for discussing issues, please use it. --DoebLoggs (talk) 12:17, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have requested for protection because if you have a look at the edit history, controversial and politically motivated information has been added to the page which isn't legally proven. Wikipedia isn't a place for the controversial informations and there is a clear pattern for users adding the same information in four different paragraphs - clear proof of vandalism. Therefore, it is important that the information is removed and page is placed under full protection for now. Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 12:42, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
But the request was already submitted, Tara.ghorayeb, so you duplicated it for naught, which resulted in an inadvertent duplication of the protection itself. Why not add your note at the original request? El_C 12:51, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Already Done. El_C 12:41, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The controversial edits have not been removed and the page has been placed under semi-protection. I request that you look into the complete matter. Wikipedia can't be a space for allegations against companies or individuals, else everyone will start adding controversial and unproven information. It is a platform to purely give out the correct information and we are all here just to ensure that. Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 12:52, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, I can't spare the time for a deeper dive atm. El_C 12:54, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Semi-protected for a period of two days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. BusterD (talk) 12:42, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I was here third! El_C 12:44, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can you please look into the matter, because the edits made on the page by users are controversial and the same information has been added in four different paragraphs making it seem as if it's the only important things about the organization - clear proof of vandalism. Repeating the same information over and over again in an article also goes against the Wikipedia rules. It is also against the rules to add controversial and misleading information as Wikipedia is not a place for it. Tara.ghorayeb (talk) 13:04, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Again, sorry, Tara.ghorayeb, but as mentioned, I can't spare the time for a deeper dive atm. But if those additions are WP:UNDUE, then it wouldn't really be a matter of vandalism or disruption, but rather, a content dispute. In which case, you're welcome to try to persuade other editors in favour of your position on the article talk page (Talk:DAMAC Properties). If still at an impasse after that, then you could make use of a number of dispute resolution requests, such as a Third opinion request. HTH. El_C 13:33, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2024 pro-Palestinian protests on university campuses in Germany[edit]

Reason: WP:CT/A-I so recommend WP:ECR per parent article protection. CommunityNotesContributor (talk) 12:38, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. That's not a thing we do by default (parent article). Also, the one user whom you are in dispute with on that page is already extended confirmed, so protection at that level would have no effect (on either one of you). El_C 12:43, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, I thought for CT/A-I it could be preventative. I'm otherwise not in dispute with any user on that page. Per talk page, I'm very much in agreement, as long as correct procedures are followed that is. CommunityNotesContributor (talk) 12:55, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Claire Cory[edit]

Reason: Unregistered users from IP addresses in Grand Forks (Cory's constituency) have repeatedly removed portions of the article discussing her May 2024 DUI arrest. Marchiviste (talk) 13:02, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. As WP:AP2. El_C 13:36, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Mr. Men Show[edit]

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Various IPs removing large swaths of content with no explanation. Skywatcher68 (talk) 13:33, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected for a period of 3 weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. El_C 13:38, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Border campaign (Irish Republican Army)[edit]

Reason: Long term disruption on a WP:TROUBLES article, current IP making the same disruptive changes as Special:Contributions/2A02:C7E:2C0C:C200:0:0:0:0/64 did for several years. Kathleen's bike (talk) 13:59, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected indefinitely. Indeed, as WP:TROUBLES. El_C 14:05, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
