Page protection

This isn't the only streaming-related article that is a target of spam and disruptive edits, and due to persistent vandalism it was protected on 11 May 2025. The protection was removed on 11 July 2025. Since then, there have been six instances where spam discovered at an early stage was removed. Additionally, many edits have needed to be reverted. For how long are editors expected to stay vigilant and available for whac-a-moling? Might it not be wiser to protect the article again?

I can't remember which 'gadget' provides the option - possibly 'twinkle' - but it's easy to request protection via the 'tabs' along the top when you have it installed. If it's not twinkle i'll have to dig deeper.

In the meantime, I'll put in a request. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. cheers. anastrophe, an editor he is. 00:16, 14 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
