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)

+1 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)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. For now it looks like the editors have things under control. I have no doubt that this page could be a target, but we don't pre-emptively protect pages. Daniel Case (talk) 03:00, 24 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)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I only see two actual reverts this month. The problems you describe might be better dealt with by reverting to a version predating those edits entirely and adding to it anything you think the IPs introduced that was worthwhile. Daniel Case (talk) 03:05, 24 January 2025 (UTC)

chhaava

Miss Supranational 2025

Reason: Combination of sockpuppetry and disruptive IP editing. IP problems are mostly Manual of Style issues regarding sub-national flags, but also sourcing issues endemic to pageant articles. The history of the article since January 1 is self explanatory, but here are some examples:

CU-confirmed socking since January 1
contra-consensus editing by IPs since January 1
