Shivaji
Reason: Disruptive editing on the title of Shivaji, without discussing it on the talk page. Frequent edit warring and suspecting meatpuppetry. Imperial[AFCND] 10:44, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- The article has been under indefinite semi-protection for about five years now. It does not appear to me that going to ECP would make much of a difference as many contributors already have that user right. The only thing I could imagine doing that could force more talk page discussion would be imposing 1RR. Would you be amenable to that? (I have put a long-overdue CTOPS notice on the talk page). Daniel Case (talk) 20:33, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- I don't have a strong opinion, but looking at edits from the last 2 weeks, 3 out of 8 users involved in the dispute over titles are not EC so ECP probably would improve the situation over the long run. I suspect that even if EC editors reach consensus, the title dispute will continue. Perhaps full protection for a week or two followed by indefinite ECP?

Soad Hosny
Reason: Persistent disruptive editings and removal of sources by many "new" accounts and IPs. Not a single edit by that recent attack on the page is with sources, they appear to be teamed up. Fragrant Peony (talk) 22:10, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
- Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last Talk to my owner:Online 22:13, 27 April 2024 (UTC)]
ITV plc
Reason: For months now, there has been multiple IPs making false edits suggesting ITV plc has been acquired by Paramount Global when in fact this has not happened. Professional Adriazeri (talk) 22:20, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
Pending-changes protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 22:37, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
Chris chan
Indefinite create protection: Repeatedly recreated – Since everything related to chris-chan is permanently locked, might as well lock this too. Okmrman (talk) 22:49, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
