As I have mentioned in the discussion section on the page, the information that keeps being added is already available on Misplaced Pages in a section on such scandals. Personally, it appears that the authors/editors in question seem to have an anti-Assembly of God agenda.

:{{RFPP|s}} Well, this one is tricky. From the talk page, there hasn't been a single attempt at working out the issues between the editors. However, I believe articles should not be full protected for long periods of time unless there is a libel or legal problem with it. Therefore I am lowering it to semiprotection. However, if the edit war starts again, and considering the apparently lack of discussion about this matter in the talk page, blocking the users would be a better option than fully protecting it again. -- ] (]) 01:11, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

    Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here.
    Shortcuts

    Before requesting, read the protection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism to high-risk templates; semi-protection and pending changes are usually used to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see the rough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stop pagemove revert wars. Extended confirmed protection is used where semi-protection has proved insufficient (see the rough guide to extended confirmed protection)

    After a page has been protected, it is listed in the page history and logs with a short rationale, and the article is listed on Special:Protectedpages. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins should not revert to specific versions of the page, except to get rid of obvious vandalism.

    Nosferatu (2024 film)

    Reason: Persistent vandalism from IP users. CricketXP (talk) 00:59, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Marc Elias

    Reason: High levels of vandalism. Marc Elias is a progressive voting rights and elections attorney. This page is intentionally being targeted by people who oppose his politics. They are misleading readers regarding Donald Trump's 2020 election loss to Joe Biden and spreading disinformation about Trump associates’ connections to Russian officials and interests. This page needs to be fact checked by serious fact checkers and protected from vandals. 2600:8805:250C:3200:BD90:3AAA:4171:CA5C (talk) 01:26, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Please enforce WP:CT/AP. IanDBeacon (talk) 04:39, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Marc Elias

    Reason: High levels of vandalism and false information. The 2016 Trump campaign was linked to Russian officials: https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/03/connections-trump-putin-russia-ties-chart-flynn-page-manafort-sessions-214868/. Attempts to add context were reverted by other user(s). Marc Elias has many followers on social media, and this page could be used to intentionally spread falsehoods. पर्वत चोटी (talk) 02:06, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Nuri Şahin

    Reason: High level of IP vandalism/edit warring by IPs from Malaysia and Turkey since end of December. Despite heroic efforts by an editor to revert these, there were so many bad IP edits that the article still has subtle remnants. Edit warring/vandalism done by at least 3 different IPs from 2 countries so can't just block a single one unfortunately. AncientWalrus (talk) 03:14, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Gulf of Mexico

    Indefinite full move protection: Full-move protection should be restored after ECP for both move and edit was added. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 04:10, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    chhaava

    Reason: This movie is based on historical novel, I want to protect page to prevent incorrect information. Kiranpawar3210 (talk) 06:03, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Rajputs of Nepal

    Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Per WP:GSCASTE, large scale blanking by IPs and autoconfirmed editors without any policy based rationale. - Ratnahastin (talk) 07:54, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Joe Biden

    Indefinite semi-protection: No longer necessary. This article should be reduced to semi-protection per consistency with articles, such as Barack Obama and George W. Bush. Biden is also no longer the president so it makes sense to make this happen. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 04:06, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

    Have you discussed this with the protecting admin on their talk page as it says above? — Malcolmxl5 (talk) 05:23, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
    I have already done that. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 09:32, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
    They haven't answered yet to your question. Fwiw, I would wait some time before lowering protection. Lectonar (talk) 10:15, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
    I assume that's me, whereas I only added +move protection (which I suggest remains regardless). Technically the edit protection dates from Aug 2020 and belongs to MelanieN, who is not currently an admin. With that in mind I'll throw it open to the floor, whilst offering my own incidental soft temporary decline opinion. I think it's too recent, him having left office only this week (and bound to reappear in the near future). We are also currently seeing elevated waves of political enthusiasts in a vigoured state trying to throw POV everywhere. How long to wait? I can't say.

    Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

    • Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
    • Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Misplaced Pages:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
    • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Misplaced Pages:Requested moves, not here.
    • If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
    • This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

    Israel–Hamas war

    Currently, the lede states "On 7 October 2023, Hamas-led militant groups launched a surprise attack on Israel, taking 251 captive, against which Israelis responded applying the controversial Hannibal Directive, resulting in the death of 1,195 Israelis and foreign nationals, among which 815 civilians.". This implies that the majority of the casualties were caused by Israel applying the Hannibal Directive, and despite some cases of casualties due to this, no credible source has made the claim that the majority of casualties originate from it. I suggest changing the lede back to what it was before it was randomly edited to the current lede without any discussion on the talk page about it, to "On 7 October 2023, Hamas-led militant groups launched a surprise attack on Israel, killing 1,195 Israelis and foreign nationals and taking 251 captive."

    Israel–Hamas war

    In the section labeled "Initial Israeli counter-operation (October 2023)" it states the following: "A July 2024 Haaretz investigation revealed that the IDF ordered the Hannibal Directive to be used, killing many Israeli civilians and soldiers. An ABC News (Australia) investigation reported that at least 13 civilians were killed in a 'Hannibal' incident in Beeri."

    These sentences are incorrect and not supported by the sourced references. First off, the word "many" in the first sentence is gratuitous, misleading, and, perhaps most importantly, not supported by the Haaretz article it references, which never concludes that any citizens were killed as a direct result of a so-called "Hannibal" directive. Nowhere in the article does it state that the Hannibal directive can be tied to *any* deaths, let alone "many" deaths. Any reference in the article to potential deaths caused by a Hannibal directive are stated as questions, or that investigations are forthcoming. (e.g., "Haaretz does not know whether or how many civilians and soldiers were hit due to these procedures, but the cumulative data indicates that many of the kidnapped people were at risk, exposed to Israeli gunfire, even if they were not the target.") Either way, it certainly does not conclude that "many" deaths were tied to the use of the "Hannibal directive" which is highly misleading.

    Similarly, as to the second sentence, the ABC News (Australia) does not conclude that " at least 13 civilians were killed in a 'Hannibal' incident in Beeri". It discusses a tank shooting at a house in Kibbutz Berri , but never states that there is evidence that the IDF tank fire resulted in the death of 13 civilians -- as opposed to the 40 Hamas gunmen who were holding them captive and engaged in a "firefight" with the IDF at the time of the tank fire. The 40 Hamas gunmen could just as easily have killed them as opposed to tank fire. Indeed, an eyewitness stated "Mr Shifroni's aunt Ayala and her grand-niece Liel and grand-nephew Yanai were all killed at Pessi's house — he believes by terrorists", not by the IDF and ""There are a few others that we still don't know and we may never know what exactly killed them." Later on in the article, it states "The team determined that most of the hostages were likely murdered by the terrorists, and further inquiries and reviews of additional findings are necessary.".

    I propose that the sentences be re-worded as follows: "A July 2024 Haaretz investigation revealed that the IDF ordered the Hannibal Directive to be used at three locations, putting the lives of some Israeli civilians being held by Hamas at those locations at risk.. An ABC News (Australia) investigation reported that after a prolonged firefight in Kibbutz Be'eri with around 40 Hamas gunmen who had been holding 15 hostages inside and outside, 13 of the hostages may have been killed by either the Hamas captors or IDF tank fire."

    Israel–Hamas war

    Since I cannot reply to my original request on this, I am starting a new request with a different source for the request and a revised sentence:

    In the fourth paragraph of the entry, it states."A case accusing Israel of committing genocide is being reviewed by the International Court of Justice,...."

    This should be changed to "Cases accusing both Israel and Hamas of committing genocide have been lodged with or are being reviewed by the International Court of Justice,..."

    This change is supported by multiple references: https://www.timesofisrael.com/9-bereaved-israeli-families-bring-icc-war-crime-genocide-complaint-against-hamas/ "The families of nine Israeli victims of the October 7 Hamas massacre have lodged a complaint at the International Criminal Court (ICC) for suspected war crimes."

    and

    https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20231103-israeli-families-bring-war-crime-complaint-to-icc-lawyer)

    The change is necessary for accuracy, balance, and neutral point of view.
