That's not how this works. First, the protection level you speak of is only able to be added by a member of the WMF. Second, the article doesn't exist. Third, WP:OWN, you can't control who does and doesn't edit the article. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#654521:35, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Declined. This article needs help, but semi-protection wouldn't help it. The problem is nationalistic/POV editing by multiple auto-confirmed editors, who change the article to their version of the truth about this person. You, Odinaka1, are part of the problem; your additions are unsourced and non-neutral. But so are other people's additions. I wonder if there is someone at Wikipedia who is informed enough about this part of the world to sort it out? Anyone? MelanieN (talk) 00:45, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Reason: Persistent disruptive editing in the last days. It is not just about the sourcing/content dispute issue which was why my request was previously rejected, but please, just see the recent IPs edits in the article. Xexerss (talk) 00:17, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent Vandalism. Persistent vandalism after prior protection expired, being one of the most high profile football players in the world makes the article highly vulnerable to vandalism. TylerBurden (talk) 03:15, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
