Chertsey

Reason: Since July 2024 the article has been repeatedly edited by a user who claims to have recently become the Lord of Chertsey. The user appears to be unable to support this unlikely claim, but it is unclear whether they are a troll or the victim of an online scam. Either way, page protection would be appreciated to put an end to this nonsense. Axad12 (talk) 09:13, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Just a note to say that the material has now been removed, I believe, on 6 occasions. Axad12 (talk) 13:27, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

@Daniel Case, unfortunately, the "user" has simply switched to using a different IP, and the problem has persisted. I think the page needs protection. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 00:39, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protected for a period of 6 months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 01:20, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Baku

Reason: Persistent repeated unconstructive POV pushing by the IP User talk:185.146.112.192/User talk:185.146.112.193/User talk:185.146.112.194/User talk:188.253.217.121/User talk:185.146.112.161 since June 2024, who has been warned numerous times and was temporarily blocked, and his user account User talk:Ibish Agayev was permanently blocked, which he created to evade the temporary block of his IP number. The IP is unresponsive to every warning and will continue with his persistent disruptive edits. He will very likely try to evade temporary blocks either by creating a new user account or via a different IP number. Orattas (talk) 17:03, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

HMPV outbreak in Northeast Asia (2024–present)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Contentious topic restriction. Is controversial, just like COVID-19 is. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 18:52, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. First, this is not (yet) covered by any CTOPS category. Second, even if it were, outside ARBPIA we do not pre-emptively protect articles on that basis. Daniel Case (talk) 22:41, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Salome Zourabichvili

Reason: Repeat vandalism. Also today this article features on main page of Misplaced Pages so this is going to probably get much worse if not protected. Page of her political opponent Kavelashvili is already protected for similar reasons. LeontinaVarlamonva (talk) 19:07, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Also, we don't protect pre-emptively, really, save in really hot PIA articles. Daniel Case (talk) 22:06, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – Different IP and new editors keep adding uncited DOB. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 23:23, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 01:16, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Flags of the Ottoman Empire

Reason: Flag of Turkey was protected for IP vandalism, this one is the same. Beshogur (talk) 23:38, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 2 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 01:15, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason: High level of IP vandalism and edit warrIng. 184.144.128.108 (talk) 00:27, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
