Not a blatant violation of the username policy. For a username to be blatantly promotional, there must be a link between the username and the user's edits. Consider re-reporting if a connection becomes clear through the user's edits. Malinaccier (talk) 16:41, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Current requests for increase in protection level[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP edits, should be indefinite. Idiosincrático (talk) 05:42, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of one month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. It has been a few years since protection has been needed, lets see what happens in a month before we reach out too far in the future. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 12:48, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Law enforcement in the United States[edit]
Reason: I feel this page is a candidate for "Semi" or "Pending changes" protection because it is a generally contentious topic, considering it includes a large "controversies" section, and could be the target of vandalism. Vandalism is not rampant but the last few hundred commits have at least a few reverts tagged for vandalism and the page seems to receive a lot of non-account edits. The edit logs also contains a decent number of edits that appear to be biased in tone along with edits trying to correct the language. Armeym (talk) 10:17, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Multiple new users adding incorrect information. He's announced that he's leaving his job in early 2025, but multiple new editors keep changing this to 2024 or changing present to past tense. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:08, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
- Declined I'm seeing a couple bad IP edits and a couple of good ones. Protecting would be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Not really enough activity to protect at this point, although that might change. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 13:06, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Shavkat Rakhmonov[edit]
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Changing this guys height twice a week for months, from multiple accounts. Nswix (talk) 12:24, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
- User(s) blocked: Kagan21 (talk · contribs). The IP was likely them, but that was well over a week ago. Blocked for 72 hours, lets see what that does. It might be helpful if you went to their user page and spent a paragraph calmly telling them they must have a new source in order to introduce new information that contradicts existing sources. At the very least, that demonstrates we tried to help them not get blocked again. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 13:10, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

List of highest-grossing Bangladeshi films[edit]
Reason: This article is the victim of low quality ip edits and edit wars for several weeks. Recently I have seen the act of the distortion of changing reliable source based information from a ip and I believe like previous weeks new edit wars are going to happen. The same thing happened in previous years where I had to request for page protection and the page was protected several times from lowest a week to maximum a month. Now there is a need to be protect the page for more period. Mehedi Abedin 17:18, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]
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.
Current requests for edits to a protected page[edit]
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
- Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}template should be used. - Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
- If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
- This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

"Do you want to take a survey?"[edit]
On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.

Early Anon work, no need to bug the developers[edit]
Up to Dec 16, 2003, all the edits at these anonymous id's were mine (59 edits):

More recently 1,250 or so edits on 75.41.110.200 are apparently all mine. Apparently my new ID is 75.41.109.190. There are undoubtedly many others as the earliest history of many articles was not preserved by the software.
