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 Extended-Protection: High level of unreasonable and arbitrary edits. Hi, please temporarily make this article extended-protected because there are too much people editing with many errors and also a low level of vandalism have occurred on this article. Also, there are a bunch of unnecessary and arbitrary edits. 2601:646:8003:6B20:F819:E192:5DCA:B36F (talk) 06:56, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Addition of content sourced to IMDb or unsourced, not neutral in tone, editor's username suggests conflict of interest. Recently protected fir the same reason, expired a week ago. Tacyarg (talk) 08:52, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Temporary full protection: Content Dispute/Edit Warring. — DaxServer (t·m·e·c) 08:53, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. Per WP:PIA, non ECP users changing the results of the battle Wiiformii (talk) 15:14, 22 July 2024 (UTC) Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – edit warring. IP-hopper keeps reverting back to a version with a needlessly longer summary. CRBoyer 15:33, 22 July 2024 (UTC) Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Article has been subjected to mass sockpuppet edits since at least March 2024. Looking through its history: Sabtamarka, Jinsicad, Philantro Man, Thehamid, Ynilsa, Service Providers, Coastalmerch and possibly others are all sockpuppets constituting the vast majority of edits (except for editors like Whoopsawa who are trying to clean up some of the sock edits). Many of the IP edits are likely logged-out socks as well. R Prazeres (talk) 16:43, 22 July 2024 (UTC) Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content. Waxworker (talk) 16:48, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – An IP user who, for many years (going back to at least May 2013), has been obsessively trying add false information about a non-existent crossover between this Disney anime series and characters from the non-Disney-owned educational animated children's series Dragon Tales (along with other IPs such as Teletubbies) has returned after over two-and-a-half years since their last series of edits to continue their years-long attempt to add their crossover idea to the article. Their unusual obsession with this idea and long history of vandalizing edits should prove that this article needs an indefinite semi-protection to prevent any future attempts to restore these edits. Here's a history of the days their edits were reverted (in reverse chronological order): Reverts to Stitch! over fake Dragon Tales and other IPs crossover
Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. Heartfox (talk) 17:34, 22 July 2024 (UTC) Temporary semi-protection: Ongoing false statements about a Paramount takeover, per previous edit protection and Talk:ITV_plc#False_take-over_claims. Belbury (talk) 18:42, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – see page history, persistent effort by IPs who I can only assume to be an LTA to falsify referenced content i.e. subtle vandalism.

Autopatrolled[edit]
Hello, I have created 100+ articles, primarily focused on television series. And I plan to keep doing the same. Thanks for your consideration C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 08:51, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
I have been contributing to Wikipedia for some time now and have made numerous constructive edits, focusing mainly on Global South topics. I believe that having autopatrolled rights would help streamline my contributions by reducing the workload for the reviewing editors and ensuring quicker article updates. I have read and understand Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, including those on notability and reliable sourcing. I am committed to maintaining high standards of content quality and adhering to community norms. If you could consider granting me autopatrolled rights, I would greatly appreciate your consideration. Thanks. 12eeWikiUser (talk) 09:35, 22 July 2024 (UTC) 12eeWikiUser (talk) 09:35, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Applying for the right as my edits were rationale. I have undergone all the criterions and I fit in all. I am well aware about Star Missispi and Joe Roe's earlier declines, but now I am fully washed and proved myself eligible for the right. From AFD/CSD to AfC reviews, and developing a handful of drafts for acceptance, I can now proudly say that I am eligible for the role. Twinkle1990 (talk) 15:32, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
Confirmed[edit]
Reason for requesting confirmed rights I am requesting confirmed rights because I am trying to create a new page however I can't do that without confirmed/auto- confirmed permissions. Pemguincraft (talk) 22:13, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
File mover[edit]
I would like to apply for the File mover right to rename files. I've been contributing on Commons for quite some time now, and I've been doing lots of good file renaming requests on Wikipedia. The file movers also appreciated my rename requests [5]. I'm a file mover and patroller on Commons, and I've moved over 1000 files so far. I have a good understanding of the renaming guideline, and I think it would be really helpful also having the right here. Thank you! Waqar💬 14:08, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
Page mover[edit]
I have been editing for over 7 years and I plan on using this permission in order to help with discussions on WP:RM and deal with cross-redirects for articles that should have more disambiguated titles. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 12:46, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello, my page mover privilege has just expired, after 90 days of what I believe to have been productive use in NPP and AFC. Could it be extended please? Thanks. Wikishovel (talk) 06:20, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
I am requesting page mover rights to help close discussions at WP:RM, if a consensus is clear. – The Sharpest Lives (💬•✏️•ℹ️) (ping me!) 03:39, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
I am a registered user with more than 6 months of experience and more than 3000 edits, I moved a lot of pages and have created the Requested move for the page Danilo Guades. (I also don't have blocks).
Pending changes reviewer[edit]
Im requesting pending changes reviewer rights because I wish to review some changes made by inexperienced users, I’ll be fully active and really want to get this right. Madeforall1 (talk) 10:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
I'm starting to review pages for copyvios, and, as a result, I'm starting to encounter reviewer-protected pages. (If the article on Rotten Tomatoes wasn't a backwards-copy, I might have been hosed.) In any case, I hope my experience across multiple Wikimedia projects demonstrates the competence needed for this permission. ⸺RandomStaplers 00:07, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
I am well familiar with the Wikipedia Copyright violations, Wikipedia Biographies of living persons and much more of Verifiability to other subject aside humans. My main focus are on the WikiProject Nigeria and little works from other Wikiproject. Reason being so I don't get occupied with other subject am not 100% familiar with their source such as Indian and the rest. Gabriel (talk to me ) 12:21, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
Hey there! I'm ThatOneWolf, and, I know I've been here twice before, but those times I admit I didn't really get the whole idea of experience and stuff. Plus, my last request was months ago. I took a little break recently when I just was checking my talk page and watchlist, but now I've come back to editing. Anyway, the reason I'm requesting Reviewer rights now is because I feel like I could help in that area, with most of my edits being vandalism reversions. I also feel I suitably warn editors when I think they are intending to vandalize, or just let them know if it seems they could be trying to help. I've read all the policies listed in Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes, and am very familiar with the copyright laws. This is why I feel I would be more fit now to receive this right. Thanks for reading! -- ThatOneWolf (ChatEdits 12:18, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
I watch recent changes often for vandalism and problematic edits, and understand the difference between the two when reverting them. I've also reviewed the guidelines on reviewing pending changes. I hope this right can help me more effectively perform anti-vandal work. ADifferentMan (talk) 07:34, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I am requesting pending changes review rights to improve my anti-vandalism work here on Wikipedia. I frequently revert instances of vandalism and am willing to assist with pending changes revisions. Thank you. — doclys (❀) 14:28, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
Rollback[edit]
Hello! I would like to request rollback rights as I've been pretty active in countering vandalism since May. I use Twinkle and I notify new users consistently when I revert, usually by using a warn template, but other times by writing a message myself. I do my best to distinguish between good faith edits and vandalism and avoid unnecessary edit wars. Having made around 20 successful AIV reports, I am interested in making patrolling quicker with Huggle. Thank you! ObserveOwl (chit-chat • my doings) 22:52, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello, at this point I think I’m ready to fight vandalism and make good rollback edits, I really need this tools to be giving me to me, I’m an experienced editor and I think some editors are really not doing justice in terms of there edits, I want to use the tools to revert some edits that shouldn't be Madeforall1 (talk) 11:56, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello! I am applying for the role of rollbacker, having been a Wikipedia user for over 10 years and being increasingly active in the last few years. In this vein, I feel that I have undone my fair share of vandalism and, being mainly focused on football/sports articles, vandalism and unconstructive/unsourced edits are very common in my area of interest and editing. I believe that these rights will be very useful in maximising the efficiency of my work on Wikipedia and will save me time from undoing separate edits individually. Additionally, I have past experience as an administrator on a Wikia project, where I made use of the rollback feature and have good knowledge of its positives and when to utilise it. Thank you for taking your time to review my request. Kind regards, Vasil3fonov (talk) 12:26, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
I regularly monitor the "recent change" feed now for about 2 months now, I actively warn users when I revert their edits thanks to twinkle and ultraviolet and actively report the clear vandals and spam accounts. I want to access the rollback rights to make reverting easier as I have slow internet. Warm Regards, Miminity (talk) (contribs) 11:15, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I would like to request rollback rights to quickly enhance the process of reviewing RecentChanges. For over a month, I have been patrolling RecentChanges and using Ultraviolet and Twinkle to revert and warn users. Thank you. — doclys (❀) 14:26, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
Template editor[edit]
I'm requesting template editor privileges due to recent changes that classify parts of the Template:Occupation_by_nationality_and_century_category_header as high risk [7]. I developed this template to help manage occupation categories and have become quite familiar with template syntax over the past year, though I do not consider myself an expert. My expertise lies more in R programming, which I teach as part of a data science class. I meet nearly all the requirements for template editor privileges, except for having syntax requests implemented in other high-risk templates. While I have edited templates that have become high risk, I acknowledge that this is not the same. However, I have made a sizable number of technical contributions to RegExTypoFix, primarily in optimizing the regular expression. This is the code underlying the spellchecker used by AWB to implement uncontroversial misspellings. If necessary, I am willing to find and suggest syntax changes to further demonstrate my capabilities. Mason (talk) 03:29, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
I'm requesting template editor permission for some edits related to Wikipedia:WikiProject Ships. I meet all of the guidelines and have held template editor permission in the past (see Special:UserRights/RP88 and Special:PermaLink/805154993 for original grant), but previous template editor permission was dropped during a period of inactivity on my part. I am not sure if it is relevant to en.WP, but as a Commons administrator I have made hundreds of edits to the restricted templates/modules in the Commons Module and Template namespaces. —RP88 (talk) 23:45, 20 July 2024 (UTC) Footer[edit]Policies and links Policies, processes etc Miscellaneous |
