Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Increase#Amarnath Vidyalankar

• {{pagelinks|Abhira dynasty}}

Reason: Persistent IP vandalism – Requesting temporary semi-protection for the Abhira dynasty article. Multiple IPs are repeatedly removing well-sourced historical content and inserting unsourced claims (e.g., falsely linking Abhiras to Marathas), often without edit summaries or justification. This is disrupting the article's integrity. Restorations have already been made, but vandalism persists. Please consider semi-protection to prevent further disruption.

• {{pagelinks|1=Spore (2008 video game)}}

Temporary full protection: Persistent vandalism – Per WP:PINKLOCK, template protection is not correct here, since the page is not protected due to its [https://templatecount.toolforge.org/index.php?lang=en&namespace=0&name=Spore_(2008_video_game)#bottom transclusion count] (the 1 transclusion is the talk page). Requesting upgrade to full protection which does not go against WP:PP. Warudo (talk) 13:49, 20 June 2025 (UTC)

:Since {{u|Poolvobx}} has been indeffed and globally locked, I am unsure why we need even full protection at the moment. Daniel Case (talk) 20:49, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

• {{pagelinks|1=Dnieper Ukraine}}

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: WP:RUSUKR. Srich0731 (talk) 00:40, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

:File:Pictogram voting oppose.svg Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Ymblanter (talk) 21:13, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

• {{pagelinks|Veszprém KC}}

Reason: as in past months (see this [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection/Archive/2024/12#Multiple_handball_clubs request in December 2024]), persistent vandalism about handball club transfers: someone with multiple IP constantly adds hypothetical (or not confirmed yet) transfers (see ? on each item [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Veszpr%C3%A9m_KC&diff=prev&oldid=1296579339 here] for instance). Maybe those transfers will be confirmed in future, but Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia and not a Crystal ball. By the way he never give any source, even for official transfers.

And sometimes the reverts go along with insults, as in this [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection/Archive/2024/12#CS_Dinamo_Bucure%C8%99ti_(men's_handball)_2 previous request] or his 3 last reverts on Veszprém KC: "i see your back old friend, the scorpion to my spider man, the joker to my batman", "yo jack a** 99% of your crystal ball bull s*** came true, go back to your rat hole", "F YOU".

Of course, as in the past, this club is not the only one targeted (see [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=RK_Zagreb&diff=prev&oldid=1289748131 here] for instance in May or most of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/LeFnake my contribs]. PS : I'm French so my contribs are mainly in wiki.fr and I'm a small contributor here), but Veszprém KC is actually the worst and the only with insults.

• {{pagelinks|1=International rugby union eligibility rules}}

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – After a slow-moving war to remove and reinstate content to this article (in which I was not involved), the editor trying to reinstate it was blocked for sockpuppetry, though the content remained present until a few days ago. Once removed again an IP and brand-new user have attempted to restore it, and this time I have removed it on the grounds that it is original research. Temporary protection requested, though given the slow-moving nature of this, anything of only a few hours or days probably won't be enough. Dorsetonian (talk) 16:31, 22 June 2025 (UTC)
