Proctect Doctor of Education
Please protect Doctor of Education from new users. There is someone who continually tries to evade sockpuppet blocks. See the SPI and now these revert edits from a new user only editing that page (I'm about to file another SPI).

Could I request please that you reconsider semi-protection on this article, in light of the most recent edit (an entirely predictable one)? As far as I'm concerned, the unexplained removal of the section lower down is vandalism, and it happens on a regular basis; it's not as if I have only recently added it (I'm not the one who added it initially) such that I'm guilty of failing to discuss whether it should be added -- instead, I'm reverting an unexplained deletion. I'm the only established editor who keeps tabs on the page, and there are regular efforts to add unsourced material and delete sourced material. Given the never-ending stream of IPs and newbies that arrive to edit the article in this mode, there's only so much I can do without running into 3RR.

- Yeah, OK, now it does seem to have evolved further than when yuo made the request. I've protected it for three weeks. Hopefully it'll stop then, but if not, protection can be extended further. GedUK 13:21, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
Thanks, Ged
Erm, so what exactly is this "dubstep" thing anyway? I dunno, Young People These Days... now the Cocteau Twins, that was proper music... --Shirt58 (talk) 13:45, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
