Semi-Protection request

Hi Andrew, since you protected USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD-6), could you look a protecting Wasp-class amphibious assault ship also? It been experiencing the same sort of IP editing as the ship article, especially changing the status of the ship in the snip table to "on fire". Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 18:45, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. - BilCat (talk) 20:21, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

@BilCat: No problem - I've given it three days as well. Hopefully by then things will have calmed down a little but if not, happy to extend. Andrew Gray (talk) 20:28, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

More IPs that think they're clever are showing up on USS Bonhomme Richard, the set index article for the ship name. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 07:54, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks - three days again! Andrew Gray (talk) 08:53, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
