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.
An anonymous ip number vandalized the page repeatedly and the vandalism has been reverted repeatedly by a few different people. Eventually, jtdirl protected the page.
This is so routine and boring that I can only interpret this email as yet another instance of you harassing jtdirl -- you've already been in trouble for this in the past -- doing it on the mailng list isn't likely to be given any sympathy.
