Category:BMW F10
I want to request semi protection for Category:BMW F10 and Category:Lexus LS (XF40). IP users (most likely the same person) kept adding irrelevant infos to the description. I already reverted their edits, but it is the third time this happened to both categories this year. Thank you. Tvpuppy (talk) 23:36, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
Done: Semi-protected both of them for 3 months. --Achim55 (talk) 17:06, 7 March 2025 (UTC)

Unblock request
Hello, a participant in a contest wanted to create an account, unfortunately, their IP is blocked because of User:156.204.0.0/16 block by @Elcobbola. I tried to send a message but, Elcobbola seems to be inactive (5 months)! Can someone advise me about this situation? Thanks!
Pinging @روتانا who alerted me about this issue. — D Y O L F 77[Talk] 11:08, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
- The user could request IP block exemption. Yann (talk) 11:15, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
- Special:Contributions/156.204.0.0/16 was blocked 11 times following a check user verification. So I don't want to unblock it myself. Please ask User:Krd, who is active. Yann (talk) 11:40, 10 March 2025 (UTC)
