'''Reason:''' I'm not seeing any vandalism (or really any edits beyond the occasional lint cleanup by Bot or Gnome editors) on other months within the Spam blacklist/whitelist series with lower levels of '''some''' protection. Other pages in the 2007-2012 range appear to have Extended protection. However, most of the more recent (2013-2021) pages appear to have no protection and also have few to no edits. I'm seeing the occasional vandal edit (all reverted), on a few of these unprotected, but nothing justifying any of these blacklist/whitelist pages starting off with, or remaining at, Full protection. Would a reduction in protection for the above 28 pages to either Semi or Extended protection be appropriate?

My other main reason for asking for a reduction on these pages is that I'd like to completely correct all remaining Lint Errors from the [https://fireflytools.toolforge.org/linter/enwiki MediaWiki Talk] category and be done with them in one or two final edits. I have Extended confirmed edit permission, and pages similar to the above that I've fixed in the last few days I've seen 3 or more Bot edits fixing some of the issues on each page, but not fixing other Lint errors within. I came behind them and fully cleared them of all remaining issues in one or two edits. I've taken the Obsolete tag lint errors on MediaWiki talk pages from 2700 countable* errors down to under 600 remaining. The 28 pages I'm requesting above comprise of 450 of the remaining 600 countable* Lint errors in this Mediawiki section, and I'd like to be able to finish them all off before moving on to another task.

(*all error counts top out at 21 per type of error per page, so these pages likely have more than 21 errors within each of them)

If this is not a reasonable request, or there are any questions, let me know. Additionally, if I need to ask the active editor who protected those last three pages either separately from this request, or prior to that portion of my request being completed, I will do so. I just thought since those three pages were of identical nature as the others in this request, that I'd lump them in here.
