Pending Changes Protection Request

This is a new and low traffic page, but has seen its fair share of disruptive editing from fans of the Hearts of Iron mod The New Order: Last Days Of Europe, which is where Taboritsky became known in the English speaking world. Even the creators of the mod have told people to knock it off. Because this is a fairly niche page, this should be an appropriate level of protection.

Request for Protection

I don't think many people know who Sergey Taboritsky was or visit his page often. Unfortunately, the majority of traffic to this page are players of The New Order: Last Days of Europe. This is an Axis Victory mod for the WW2 strategy game Hearts of Iron IV, where Taboritsky is a mentally ill warlord in Nazi-ravaged Russia and is called "funny clockman" by the mod's fanbase, despite his genocidal policies being very unfunny. Personally, I do play Hearts of Iron IV and this mod. What I care about is that this page is almost constantly vandalized by less mature fans of TNO, who are prone to deleting his biography and putting references to "funny clockman" and "Russia must be pure for Alexei" (the hemophiliac heir to Nikolai II, last Tsar of Russia, whom he believes to be alive). The only way to stop this vandalism is to restrict editing on this page, because most of the culprits just create accounts to write spam and vandalize pages of individuals present in TNO.

yes, that is true. although they cannot vandalize pages like Hitler as it's extended confirmed (it took me a couple of months to become extended confirmed) Senor0001 (talk) 18:48, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Its a bit funny how a Nazi collaborator is only known for being a deranged warlord who devestates Russia for a long-dead heir to the throne in a fictional universe CertifiedKurd (talk) 12:15, 5 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should mugshots of Taboritsky facing forward be added?

I have a picture which has Taboritsky facing right, facing forward, and facing forward again with a coat and a fedora. I was wondering if it was right to add this picture to the article?Abetlane (talk) 02:18, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Does "The New Order" follow notability guidelines?

I've noticed that there is a large increase of people editing the page due to the mod: "The New Order - Last Days of Europe". I'm not 100% sure, but do you think that it is notable enough?

Also, I think Taboritsky should be semi-protected or pending changes due to vandalism. Senor0001 (talk) 19:01, 5 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

TNO does not follow notability guidelines. This page should go under semi-protected or pending changes due to consistent vandalism. --Charlesthe50th, Talk 01:13, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, but the "Popular Culture" TNO part of the article is still up. Should this be rectified? 12.32.37.18 (talk) 18:05, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What is a reliable source?

I think adding a section about this man appearing in popular culture, as TNO is the reason why people know this character, isn't vandalism and is sort of important. However, I have tried to do it in a different section and specifying it is fiction, adding TNO wiki as source, but it was deleted for "non reliable sources". What would be a reliable source then? It is a man that has been characterized as a fictional version in a mod of a videogame, what else do you want? Fernitetas (talk) 11:23, 4 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The wiki on TNO isn't a reliable source on TNO itself for some reason, maybe I'll just rewrite the thing with extra sources. most people know him from TNO so not adding it would be negligent Denninithan (talk) 00:30, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Adding it would be negligent since there's no reliable sources that give any evidence how his portrayal in TNO is notable enough for Wikipedia.

Examples of unacceptable user-generated sources are Ancestry.com, Discogs, Facebook, Famous Birthdays, Fandom, Find a Grave, Goodreads, IMDb, Instagram, Know Your Meme, ODMP, Reddit, Snapchat, TikTok, Tumblr, TV Tropes, Twitter, WhoSampled, and Wikipedia (self referencing). For official accounts from celebrities and organizations on social media, see the section about self-published sources below.

Fandom isn't a reliable source yet it's been cited a million times on these vandal edits.

TNO has some coverage that it'd be notable (not enough for its own article obvoiusly), but a specific character being known isnt significant. Slope Interceptor^Talk 19:55, 14 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The official TNO wiki was recently created on the initiative of the creators, so the problem is solved, here it is: https://tno.wiki/wiki/TNOpediA 5.173.4.213 (talk) 07:58, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How can we protect the article? Ozerkatanmeod (talk) 11:28, 24 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Should we include Forward-Facing pictures?

I believe we should also include the Forward-Facing one TheDabubianHistorian (talk) 22:20, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
