Declined signed, Rosguill talk 18:06, 30 October 2026 (UTC)Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Seemingly daily changes by new editors and TAs to images in the article - often pushing a US-centric rather than global view.

Mainly by a likely COI editor repeatedly removing criticism and adding excessively promotional content, but also occasionally from others trying to disparage the subject. ;; Maddy from Celeste (WAVEDASH) 14:52, 30 October 2026 (UTC)
