'''Indefinite semi-protection:''' Content dispute/edit warring - Looking at the history, there's been constant edit warring in regards to her birth year for the past few months. For years it was listed as 1981 and now people keep changing it to 1987. There are more sites stating it to be 1981 as well as a couple of articles that imply that's the correct year. I brought this up on her talk page and even edited the main article with those sources and even provided explanation. But someone reverted it back to how it was before. I think whoever keeps changing the birth year to 1987 is the same person under a different IP.

    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.

    Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level
    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
    Request a specific edit to a protected page
    Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

    Current requests for increase in protection level

    Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload protection at the BOTTOM of this section. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

    I have to interrupt you here as you have mentioned me. This is not

    Bihari Rajput. Regarding your concern we have already discussed it on talk page[5][6]
    I think there are no further arguments left to object my image. Further I feel I don't have to mention that you recently nominated my upload for speedy-deletion from wikicommons with misleading quotes to get rid of this image anyhow, but it didn't happened.Anony20 (talk) 17:46, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    You should also have a look at User:Sitush/Common#Castelists, image uploaded by me is of a group not an individual. Your above query is already answered on talk page[10][11]. Further, the image you uploaded[12] and trying to upload again goes against long standing consensus, see User:Sitush/Common#Castelists it states if you upload an image of living persons as representatives of a community (see "Group of unverified people with semiclothed man and children" which you uploaded as Bihari Rajputs[13]), then you should cite the source where they self identify themselves as belonging to that community.Anony20 (talk) 18:43, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    As pointed out above "a group of unverified people with semi clothed man and children" doesn't represent the community in anyways. Again the image added by me is not of an individual. Consciously adding "Illiterate" and "Poor" for a community in general shows your biased nature against that community.Anony20 (talk) 03:45, 2 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Shortcuts

    Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

    • To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
    • Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
    • Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
    • If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.

    Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

    List of HBO Max original programming

    Unprotection: This article has a high edit rate and most edits are constructive, sometimes leaving a backlog of unaccepted edits. I see no evidence of persistent vandalism or BLP violations. Can we try removing pending changes? (I asked the protecting admin but it seems they are only here occasionally). --Pontificalibus 08:50, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

    (Non-administrator comment) I would not advise lifting the Pending Changes for this article mainly due to it having a history of unsourced content being added (which was the reason Pending Changes was applied in the first place.) There are other similar lists that are under indefinite Pending Changes or Semi-Protection for similar reasons. IP edits still need to be reviewed for unsourced changes like this one from two days ago. While the page has a high edit rate most of them are autoconfimed and higher accounts which the software automatically accepts (unless an IP or non-confirmed edit needs reviewed.) Alucard 16❯❯❯ chat? 13:52, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    Lots of articles are subject to the addition of unsourced content, that doesn't mean they should have permanent pending changes protection. The
    pending changes policy does not list this as valid reason. Aside from the three listed reason it is only permitted for articles "subject to significant but temporary vandalism or disruption". The protection was added to this article over a year ago, perhaps there was a temporary problem then, but now is time to try removing it.----Pontificalibus 14:37, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply
    ]
    Pending changes protection can be applied on an indefinite basis if there is long term disruption. Based on the last six months I'm personally not convinced that pending changes should be lifted. Also the page is not causing an undue burden on PCRs. Alucard 16❯❯❯ chat? 15:13, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    • As the protecting admin (who indeed is only here occasionally) I would say the low bar for pending changes protection is still being met. But I have no objections to that being overridden by another admin if needs be. No need to check with me. Cheers Fish+Karate 16:29, 1 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
