Talk:Dan Quayle

Temporary extended confirmed protection: BLP policy violations – anon IP repeatedly posting innuendo about topic of article, insisting it be added to article. I've tried reasoning with anon, to no avail. his edits should also be stricken from the page history. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 04:25, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

To be clear, I only suggest anon IP be blocked from editing the article and talk page discussed. Anon says they're going to take it to dispute resolution, I see no reason to block anon's ability to do so. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 04:50, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you're only suggesting the IP range be blocked, this isn't the appropriate location. 92.40.212.156 (talk) 07:38, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This seems to be a dispute on what content to include, and not disruption. And even if it was, extended confirmed protection is unnecessary and higher than the actual article's protection itself. Also, informing them that they'll be blocked shortly is hardly an attempt at "reasoning with the anon". 92.40.212.156 (talk) 07:37, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Declined per above discussion. Daniel Case (talk) 19:22, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for my lack of clarity. It is extremely rare for me to make formal requests on wikipedia. I've been here a long time, and avoid the backend bureaucratic machinations as much as possible - to the point that I am ignorant about how many of them work. I was indeed asking for page protection on the Dan Quayle talk page, because the anon-IP is trafficking in serious BLP violative conspiracy theories. Editors other than myself have deleted his additions to the page because they violate talk-blp. I attempted to engage with anon-IP, to no avail. IP 92.40.212.156, ignoring my attempts prior to my notifying him that he would be blocked shortly isn't really good-faith. I notified him of same so that he'd be aware that the window of opportunity for responding was limited.
I thought I had selected the correct path - page protection due to talk-blp violations. I wasn't aware that I had selected disruptive editing. Or didn't I? I don't know, but I do know that I did not request that the IP or the IP range be blocked, I simply misspoke in my followup (again, forced-ignorance of these processes). My apologies for the confusion I generated. I still maintain that anon-ip's contributions to the talk page are clearly violative of talk-blp, as other editors have also shown by their reversions. Do I need to resubmit the request for page protection? cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 21:50, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Main Street Electrical Parade

Reason: Persistent IP vandalism - IP Accounts keep changing the page to mention a light up drone show which is currently called "Disney's Electrical Sky Parade". Despite this being a drone show that serves as a tribute to the Main Street Electrical Parade, I feel like this page is not the right place to mention it Pepper Gaming (talk) 19:53, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. They haven't made those edits in 10 days. Also, this sounds like a content dispute that could at least bear an attempt to resolve it on talk. Daniel Case (talk) 20:07, 6 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
