Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. TheWikiholic (talk) 10:16, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Thanks for requesting this. — Newslinger talk 01:59, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Edit warring by multiple IPs over flags in the infobox Wowzers122 (talk) 14:57, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
Already protected by administrator Izno. Protected for 1 week. Thanks for requesting this. — Newslinger talk 01:55, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Reason: There has been a consistent pattern of disruptive editing, including numerous unsourced edits and bad-faith changes coming from multiple IP addresses and newly registered accounts. The level of disruption is affecting the quality and reliability of the article, and reverting the edits is becoming increasingly difficult. A higher level of protection would help maintain the integrity of the page. Morekar (talk) 15:22, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IP's changing nationality, adding images that don't exist... Nswix (talk) 19:11, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
Permanent semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – LTA. This article has been vandalized too much by Phạm Văn Rạng's IP addresses persistently, even I just checked and I see there was a blocked account (LGCpa: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/LGCpa) of Phạm Văn Rạng vandalizing here. Of course this has stopped recently because this article is protected until October 12. Since this is an important article and is at risk of being vandalized by Phạm Văn Rạng's IP addresses again, I suggest that this article should be permanently protected. 2401:D800:290:98FE:F925:80BF:43EB:6C98 (talk) 20:07, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

Already protected by administrator Sir Sputnik. Please re-request protection if the disruptive editing continues, which may occur after the current protection expires on 12 October 2025. — Newslinger talk 02:12, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. m a MANÍ1990(talk | contribs) 20:29, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- I blocked the IP, but right now I do not think protection is needed, since most IP edits are constructive. Not declining, since things can still change rapidly. Ymblanter (talk) 20:34, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- At this point, I believe semi-protection is warranted. Thanks, Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 02:18, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Contentious topic restriction. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk · contribs) 21:45, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- Note: Gordin is listed as a belligerent in the Israeli invasion of Syria. That in turn is related to the Arab-Israeli conflict and is a spillover of the Gaza war in Syria. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk · contribs) 21:48, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
Extended confirmed protected indefinitely. Thanks for requesting this. — Newslinger talk 02:15, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Persistent vandalism. JeffSpaceman (talk) 22:59, 27 April 2025 (UTC)
- I'd agree on indefinite protection, not only because of vandalism, but additionally because of a notorious incident. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk · contribs) 02:18, 28 April 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – This article has been frequently attacked by IP users many from South Asia that are trying to inflate the number of actual affiliated followers of Buddhism in China. Its not just this article but really any article that has Chinese countries and buddhism followers. Seems suspicious and almost like a coordinated movement with sockpuppetry. See here for details. I am nominating this page first because it has more recent activity of disruptions. Imcdc Contact 01:36, 28 April 2025 (UTC)
