Indefinite full protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent vandalism from IP users lately. Page was last protected for this reason, and will most definitely continue if this isn't protected. BrickMaster02 (talk) 23:27, 23 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@BrickMaster02: Are you aware what full protection entails? Why would you want it used on the article? Please be so kind and read our protection policy if you haven't done so already, and perhaps rethink your request. Lectonar (talk) 08:43, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
What would the full protection be for? Full protection means that only administrators can edit it. For persistent IP vandalism, semi-protection is enough. Full protection is way too overkill. Pretty sure it will be denied almost immediately once an admin actually reads this. And, as Lectonar said, read the protection policy. BenzoAid (talk) 11:24, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Admins don't have to grant the protection the user requests. They can temporarily semi-protect it if they think the article needs semi. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 13:22, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Temporary pending changes: Persistent vandalism. Johnny Au (talk/contributions) 01:27, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing by anonymous IPs again and again. Yuugone (talk) 12:11, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason: WP:GS/RUSUKR Offensive Guard is a project of Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs with the aim to form new assault brigades in the structure of National Guard, National Police and Border Guards. The project has begun in January 2023. It clearly plays a part in the war. Uwdwadafsainainawinfi (talk) 13:21, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  DeclinedPages are not protected preemptively. @Courcelles: courtesy ping. El_C 15:24, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, this is one I likely would protect. The article was actually created last month, it existed for almost two decades as a redirect to a football term, so the history is a bit misleading, and as it now exists is pretty much entirely within the topic of the war. Courcelles (talk) 17:30, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if the OP is to continue relisting until they get lucky with you, as opposed to unlucky with me, or unlucky with Scottywong earlier today (diff) — well, that is not an ideal situation, and is in fact quite unambiguously admin shopping. El_C 17:52, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I don't see anything here that unmanagable. Courcelles (talk) 17:40, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
