Hi there,
I'm not sure if this is possible but would we be able to protect the 'Cavoodle' page please. It keeps getting vandalised and redirected to the 'cross breed' page. Although they are not recognised by a number of kennel clubs, they are recognised as a designer breed. For example the are searched for on Google about five time the number of times people search for a 'Norwegian Lundehund' which has it's own page that does not receive vandalism.
There are a couple of bad eggs which have nothing better to do with their time than to vandalise pages they disagree with but I don't think they should be able to vandalise pages to give themselves a little sense of power.

The editor's had past form at this noticeboard for ] on the same band's articles (eg, ]); seems to think information can remain unsourced for years; and insists that tacit acceptance of this outweighs key policies. (PaleCloudedWhite's opening statement at that linked AN/I discussion is uncannily spot on, btw, with regard to my experience of this user's approach both in 2019 and over the last week or so.)
