Re: Cloudflare

Corresponding article, hCaptcha, has plenty of sources. 108.54.126.168 (talk) 22:33, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Great! Then you can add one of them inline to the Cloudflare article to verify that Cloudflare is using hCaptcha how you said they are. GorillaWarfare (talk) 22:35, 1 August 2020 (UTC)

Request to change protection on List of My Hero Academia characters

Serial Number 54129 reported said article claiming that one IP has been vandalizing the article with unsourced content. The aspersion that one user has been doing so is simply not true. While yes, my IP did change from 72.203.118.154 to 72.219.72.215 on an unknown date, several other users who are not me have also reverted SN's mass removals of content, including 2601:246:4800:70c0:b834:343a:587c:e5c6 and Exukvera; several other edits by other users that are not me have readded the info back in, rather than just me. I can even prove that he other IP is not me; They live in Illinois; I live in California. Another issue I have with indefinite protection is that it does not follow the format of BRD. Removing the content was a bold edit, they were reverted, and then Serial Number 54129 refuses to hold a discussion on the matter. Their aspersion of me being a crufter is also false; I have no issue with removing fancruft (I myself have removed cruft so several times). My issue was with the amount of content being removed, not the fact that content was being removed, and do not believe indefinite protection is necessary fo good-faith edits that are backed up by other users (while falsely being accused of only being one) and struck down as being part of something I have made efforts to remove. I would like to have the protection be lifted, once a consensus is reached, rather than protect it because one user thinks so. 72.219.72.215 (talk) 08:01, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

The fact that multiple users have been warring the content back and forth for some time is precisely why I applied page protection. Although you are claiming that Serial Number 54129 has refused to discuss, the article talk page history tells a different story. If you reach a new consensus on what should be included in the page and have issues implementing it, feel free to reach out to me. However at the current moment there has been no such consensus and I see no reason the edit warring wouldn't start back up again immediately upon the protection being lifted.
