There is two pages named Dance Plus (season 6) and Dance Plus have been semi-protected by an editor.This article gets vandalized repeatedly by the same IPv6 range and I believe this would be good to stop that. the protection prevents the page from being updated with relevant and important information. Most of the frequent editors are non-extended editors confirmed users so this page has been neglected and is Missing lot of up-to-date information since the protection is increased SparksMania (talk) 10:29, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please help me to unprotect these two pages SparksMania (talk) 10:31, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @SparksMania. Both the articles are only semi-protected so any autoconfirmed user can edit the said articles. To become an autoconfirmed user you only need an account for 4 days have made at least 10 edits to the Wikipedia. I think you already qualify the second requirement. You just have to wait for few more days and you can edit the article yourself.

I can't decrease the protection level of the article only admins can increase/decrease the protection. Also I don't recommend for protection to be decreased. If you want to request an edit to the article, you can go the the talk page of the article and make an request edit. Eevee01^(talk) 10:53, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, since you were the user who aided in my edit request on Raini Rodriguez, I was hoping you could help me over at 2021 in American television. I've made several edit requests on the talk page and they're all being ignored, and they're piling up. I'm hoping you could implement them for me--141.157.254.24 (talk) 02:56, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @141.157.254.24. I've implemented most of your previous edit requests. Please let me know if I missed anything. I've not implemented your latest request because the shows are yet to be premiered. Eevee01^(talk) 11:48, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Eevee01,

Thank you for creating Abdulai Abukari.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article needs to follow the policy given in WP:BASIC. Kindly do the needful.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Whiteguru}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Whiteguru (talk) 21:15, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Whiteguru. User Achiri Bitamsimli is the creator of the said article not me. The article wasn't ready for the main space so I moved it to the draft space using a user script, but it looks like they removed the speedy deletion tag and kept on working on the article in the main space itself. (history of the article.) Eevee01^(talk) 04:02, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know. The article has since been deleted. --Whiteguru (talk) 20:15, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by S0091 was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

Please see the notability guidelines for actors. Also, Celebrity Club is not a reliable source and some of the sources cited do not mention Sangita.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Sivani Sangita and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Sivani Sangita, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
• If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Eevee01. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Nidhi Bhanushali, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months.

Requesting to delete redirect as per request in Teahouse

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. ― Itcouldbepossible^Talk 08:46, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 12 December 2022. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2022 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:51, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• The article creation at scale RfC has been closed.

Technical news

• A new preference named "Enable limited width mode" has been added to the Vector 2022 skin. The preference is also shown as a toggle on every page if your monitor is 1600 pixels or wider. When disabled it removes the whitespace added by Vector 2022 on the left and right of the page content. Disabling this preference has the same effect as enabling the wide-vector-2022 gadget.

Miscellaneous

• Tech tip: A single IPv6 connection usually has access to a "subnet" of 18 quintillion IPs. Add /64 to the end of an IP in Special:Contributions to see all of a subnet's edits, and consider blocking the whole subnet rather than an IP that may change within a minute.
