Current requests for increase in protection level

[edit]
Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload protection at the BOTTOM of this section. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.


Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing โ€“ A week of semi protection because two IPs recently identified to be changing winner name of an ended season. Thewikizoomer (talk) 05:06, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Declined โ€“ Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 18:22, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Continued vandalism by IP and sock. Request escalation to autoconfirmed access. Borgenland (talk) 09:15, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Declined โ€“ Likely collateral damage as one or several users who are making improvements would be affected by the requested protection. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 18:25, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Reason: There appears to be an inordinate amount of edits trying to skew the appearance of the film's reception as positive by adding in statements on the positive audience reception using metrics like IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes user scores which are highly suspect and easily exploited by positive and negative review bombing. IonicBreezeMachine (talk) 13:57, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Declined โ€“ Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. It's time to at least try using the talk page. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 18:31, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Edit warring has resumed again, though progress has been made on the talk page, but player... 7? Has entered the chat and undone recent progress in discussions without consensus. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:12, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Declined โ€“ Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Right now, the only options that seem appropriate as per the guidance in the protection policy are full protection or no protection. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 18:41, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

[edit]
Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

  • To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
  • Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
  • Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
  • If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Current requests for edits to a protected page

[edit]
Request a specific edit to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

  • Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
  • Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
  • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
  • If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
  • This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

Created 407 articles, and only 2 were deletedโ€”1 was soft deleted earlier in 2022, and the latest one was deleted per WP:A10, which is not a major issue. 99.5% or 405 of his articles are still live.

Can i please have extended confirmed rights back. I lost it because one day when i had a little less than 500 edits, i made about 45-55 edits in one hour in order to get to 500 edits. Im new to this site and didn't know gaming edits was against the rules. Ever since i lost the extended confirmed thing, I've made hundreds of edits i think are constructive and i stopped vandalism a few times and have a much better understanding of the rules. extended confirmed rights HumansRightsIsCool (talk) 21:59, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

I have organized two edit-a-thons in the past for WP:LABOR and will organize a third one soon in October. I am exploring running several in-person edit-a-thons in person at labor related conferences this year so this perm would be useful. In addition, I am advocating for English Wikipedia to enable Meta:CampaignEvents here, which ideally would also make use of this existing permission.

Reason for requesting new page reviewer rights Jattlife121 (talk) 13:57, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

@Jattlife121 I assume you didn't mean to submit a blank request? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:04, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

I've been on this website since 2009. I have thousands of edits, and I've never been inactive for more than a few months. I'm a pending changes reviewer and rollbacker, and I often patrol recent changes either with Huggle or manually. If I'm given access to the new page queue, I can fight vandalism and promotional content there too. T3h 1337 b0y 00:35, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

I should add that I have plenty of experience with AfDs and speedy deletion (thanks, Twinkle). T3h 1337 b0y 00:39, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. While we very much appreciate you volunteering, you've only had two months in the past year where you've had over 10 edits (the most being this month, with 16). With only 67 edits over the past 365 days, and a serious gap between now and your AFC activity (mostly 2010), I'm not comfortable granting a trial at this point in time. If your activity picks up more and you spend a bit of time at AfD (things changed a lot since 2010) you'll have a better chance at receiving this perm if you re-apply.

Hello! I request for the permission - Rollback. ZeetBaralWiki 15:43, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Hello to anyone concerned.

I am requesting rollbacker rights, having done so before without the knowledge of having to warn users after undoing their edits, and I believe I now have a substantial track record of doing so ever since promising to fulfill that role. I now also have a good idea of how to use tools such as Twinkle effectively, which have greatly helped my work against vandalism.

Thanks for taking your time to read my request. Best regards, Vasil3fonov (talk) 16:56, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
