Cushitic-speaking peoples edit

Reason: IP editor & another editor have been edit-warring for eleven days. I encouraged them to discuss on Talk. IP editor is not happy with input of other editors & has returned to edit warring. Pathawi (talk) 01:33, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  User(s) blocked: 2.26.151.114 (talk · contribs) blocked by Daniel Case. from the article for a month. They have also been alerted to CTOPS and a CTOPS notice under ARBHORN left on the talk page. Daniel Case (talk) 18:58, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of characters in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai edit

Reason: Indefinite Semi-Protection: persistent vandalism since previous protections expired, constant tampering with main cast Imsaneikigai (talk) 10:09, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Extended confirmed protected for a period of three weeks, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Doing this again since some of the warring editors are autoconfirmed. Daniel Case (talk) 19:03, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

2024 Indian general election edit

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Enable ECP until atleast 5th June 2024 as editing is being made on predictions. Thewikizoomer (talk) 12:14, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please enforce WP:CT/IPA IanDBeacon (talk) 14:53, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. "Editing is being made on predictions"? Where does policy say that predicted election results cannot be edited? What if the sources making those predictions change those predictions? Are editors not allowed to change them then?
More to the point, it seems like editors on an article that is right dead center in the hurricane's eye of one of the most contentious of our contentious topics are generally working well together. Proof that we can trust the community to do things right in situations like this, at least at the start. Daniel Case (talk) 19:09, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

American Airlines Flight 1420 edit

Reason: IP keeps adding "first day of Pride Month" to the lead, which while yes it was the first day of Pride Month, is hardly relevant to the article. Would like to see it semiprotected for the next 72 hours. Springeragh (talk) 13:41, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  User(s) blocked: 172.56.86.56 (talk · contribs) blocked by Amortias. for 72 hours, with talk page access revoked. This was not the only page they were being a bad boy on. Daniel Case (talk) 19:12, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yuno Miles edit

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. From an LTA. This may not deter them who vandalize other pages and edit on their user page anyway, but I think some form of protection will help slightly. Aaron Liu (talk) 13:52, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  Semi-protected for a period of one week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Just so they don't revert the close. Daniel Case (talk) 19:17, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
