the book titled "Chess Guide for the Intermediate Player" is not for Intermediate players
I want to rewrite this book because it is poorly written and its title is misleading, what I mean by this is that the book covers very basic ideas, the book describes its target audiance the following way:

"You need to understand the rules of chess. This book is for intermediate players, so we'll talk about openings, tactics, and strategy.

You also need to understand the chess notation, such as 4. Nc3!?.

If you know rules and notation, then you can read this book!"

Basically the book is for those who just learned chess, I'm asking for the book to be renamed to a more fitting title such as ""Chess Guide For Chess Beginners" or ""Chess Guide for Amatuer Players" Doctorbeak (discuss • contribs) 13:32, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Is that the right /64 range? I see no contributions from this range. --SHB2000 (discuss • contribs) 04:36, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The page in question (user talk:2001:8004:E00:B0DA:38FB:96EF:237A:F34B) was deleted as vandalism. --Leonidlednev (discuss • contribs) 05:13, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm going to mark this as ❌ – vandalism from a single IPv6 address does not mean the entire /64 range should be blocked. I already took care of 2001:8004:E00:B0DA:38FB:96EF:237A:F34B on the 28th, so nothing needs to be done here. SHB2000 (discuss • contribs) 13:25, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Semiprotection of Wikijunior:Ancient Civilizations/Khmer
Would one of the local admin team please protect this for a bit? It's a target of a persistent LTA pest. Thank you in advance - Antandrus (discuss • contribs) 17:20, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

 * Vandalism by what I assume is a sockpuppet army. Inserting false data like before.


 * I went ahead and semi-protected the page again. I can't tell which edits are valid, so please ping again with future issues! —Kittycataclysm (discuss • contribs) 14:28, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
