I just took a look at [[George VI of the United Kingdom]], which has been protected by jtdirl, citing persistent vandalism. jtdirl is a participant on the lame edit war running on this and similar pages, and has naturally protected it in his preferred version.
The vandalism he's protecting? See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=George_VI_of_the_United_Kingdom&am... for an example. Anyone ever heard of the British Royal von Wettin dynasty?
Reading [[Wettin (dynasty)]] shows the "vandalism" edit to be, well, exactly that.
Thiis would be a good use for per-article blocking.
