 | This page has anadministrative backlog that requires the attention of willing administrators. Please replace this notice with{{no admin backlog}} when the backlog is cleared. |
| Welcome—request protection of a page, file, or template here. | ||
|---|---|---|
Before requesting, read theprotection policy. Full protection is used to stop edit warring between multiple users or to prevent vandalism tohigh-risk templates; semi-protection and pending changes are usually used to prevent IP and new user vandalism (see therough guide to semi-protection); and move protection is used to stoppagemove revert wars. Extended confirmed protection is used where semi-protection has proved insufficient (see therough guide to extended confirmed protection). After a page has been protected, it is listed in the page history and logs with a short rationale, and the article is listed onSpecial:ProtectedPages. In the case of full protection due to edit warring, admins should not revert to specific versions of the page, except to removeobvious vandalism.

Temporary semi-protection: Persistentvandalism – Much disruption due to a recently released film. Covered byWP:CT/SA.Gotitbro (talk)04:46, 15 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity tojustify protection. All recent IP edits seem to be constructive orWP:AGF.RunningOnBrains(talk)18:55, 15 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]Reason: High level of IP vandalism. Repeated identical promotional wording. Page was protected for a day, then a week ,then a month etc. and eventually six months. The six month protection recently expired and as before within hours with the same wording by (presumably) yet another sock puppet account. The promotional editors identified themselves a while back as "volunteers" for the event.
Request permanent protection as it's clearly highly persistent and they just wait for the protection to expire and post straight away from a new sock puppet account. They are clearly very invested and determined to use the page as an advertisement space.
Thanks in advance if someone can help.RufusLechuga (talk)05:21, 15 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Already protected by administratorDaniel Quinlan.Semi-protected for1 year. Thank you for requesting this. — Newslinger talk21:51, 15 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]Reason: Systematic, questionable anonymous edits, consisting either of deleting large amounts of source text or adding biased wording. Considering the article has long had a massive template pointing out the problems, this clearly isn't helping matters. Moreover, judging by the repeated motifs in the comments to anonymous edits, we are talking about multiple reincarnations of one person.Solaire the knight (talk)06:29, 15 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The protecting administrator is listed in the protection log entry, next to the words"protected","changed protection level", or"configured pending changes". If there are a large number of log entries on the page, use the drop-down menu near the top of the page and select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" to filter the logs accordingly.

Requests for specific edits should be made on the talk page of the protected article. You can create an edit request below only if the talk page isalso protected, preventing you from adding a request there.
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}) to the article's talk page if you would like to request an edit be made. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.{{Edit COI}} template should be used instead of the others listed above.Otherwise, this is the correct place to use in order to add an edit request if you are unable to add one to the article's talk page. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to properly add a request.
xI've never seen so much bureacracy ... is this the new wikipedia now? We used to be able to add content to talk pages. This is now forbidden?
Anyway. The main article is not accurate right now:
"One of the shooters, while aiming down his sights and firing, was disarmed by an unarmed male bystander.[25][20][26][27][28] He tackled the shooter from behind and managed to seize the weapon from him, and then aimed it back at the shooter."
It reads disarmed the guy. Well, he took the rifle - but how can wikipedia know he did not have other weapons in his bag or elsewhere? So, rather than fabricating something which may or may not be true, the article should simply state that he took the long rifle from the guy, just as the videos show.~2025-35093-91 (talk)23:05, 14 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to be another peanut in the gallery here but the international response section is a real word salad. Could something like the following work?
"The attack gained international attention, and was responded to by numerous international leaders and representatives who condemned the attack. This included statements from leaders such the UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, and the United States of America President Donald Trump."
I would argue that these three countries + Israel are currently the only relevant countries to this current discussion due to long-standing geopolitical alliances, and Australia being part of the Commonwealth. Random American senators or another country’s ambassador (not to Australia) is unnecessary.
