Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Here we go again… MakaylaHippo1998 (talk) 06:54, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: High level of vandalism that periodically experiences peaks. High level of unsourced information with low number of article watchers. From Alba, Celtoi, (talk) 07:47, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – SPA edit warring for preferred version of page, with big side of WP:OWN. Discussed at WP:COIN#Sabrina Pasterski. Responses such as this diff [1] and also [2] seem to indicate some kind of WP:PAID conflict of interest. User has 70 edits, so ECP would be appropriate. An alternative would be to temporarily or permanently pblock Relativity77 from the page; if so, I’d suggest combining with a short semiprotection. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 09:24, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Sockpuppet vandal target (socks of Thcsphuninh2025).  Sumanuil. _{(talk to me)} 09:41, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Adding unsourced edit by Temporary users. Panda 🐼 Arun (Talk) 11:28, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Long-term vandalism, of the same kind as Talk:Speech synthesis which is indefinitely semi-protected. Stockhausenfan (talk) 11:28, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Per WP:CT/SA, this page gets a lot of traffic and a lot of edits come under the broad area of “social groups”. SerChevalerie (talk) 11:40, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: Pattern of vandalism and addition of uncited information by temporary and new accounts. Activity seems to be driven by the article being currently linked on the front page of the site it describes. This is confirmed by the presence of soyjack-adjacent slang in the edit summaries. Users of the site have a history of raiding Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons, so this behavior can be expected to continue for at least a week. ~2025-37440-32 (talk) 11:56, 8 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
