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.


Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. -- Alex_21 TALK 00:58, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

DeclinedWarn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 01:21, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – A number of IPs and sockpuppets have been disruptively editing this and several other pages for which I am requesting semi-page protection. I'm pretty sure it's the same person, because as soon as one is blocked, another reinstates the same changes. (Always about substituting Punjabi for other languages or cultures, such as Saraiki.). Laterthanyouthink (talk) 01:32, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: 93.150.224.0/20 (talk · contribs). Blocked IP range for 1 month. — Newslinger talk 03:37, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 month, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Thanks for reporting this. — Newslinger talk 03:37, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Thanks very much for doing these, Newslinger - much appreciated. Here's hoping the pest loses interest after a couple of weeks! Laterthanyouthink (talk) 04:28, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
No problem! If the disruptive editing does reoccur, please submit another report. IP range blocks tend to be more effective than page protection when many articles are affected, so if any future disruptive editing comes from an IP address that looks close to one of the previously blocked IP addresses, a report on the vandalism noticeboard might be the best solution. — Newslinger talk 04:36, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Thanks - I have reported some of the individual IPs, and someone did block some related to a sockpuppet account, I think. Laterthanyouthink (talk) 04:42, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason: User is changing sources and including fictional names to spread his propaganda by giving false information. Adrikshit (talk) 02:33, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

DeclinedWarn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. I will be giving them a CTOPS alert. Daniel Case (talk) 03:52, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Pending Changes for some time - Over the last year, it seems like there has been a fairly substantial amount of IP vandalism, but I don't think it's quite enough for semi-protection. 2601:343:4100:1E90:B913:2CAA:C102:E92A (talk) 03:51, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Not really much editing to begin with over the past year. Daniel Case (talk) 03:54, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. EggRoll97 03:58, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Ongoing excessive editing of criminal conviction section nearly a week after his death. Wikipedia is not the news nor the morality police. 💥Casualty 04:45, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – persistent disruptive editing as experienced in the past. Marincyclist (talk) 04:59, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on 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.

Temporary pending changes protection: Reduce the protection to pending changes, as all vandals that triggered the temporary semi-protection are all ip users. It would be greatly appreciated if the semi-protection is reduced to pending changes for the remainder of the duration. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talkcontribs) 18:57, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Pending-changes protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Daniel Case (talk) 03:59, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

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.

Autopatrolled

Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights

Hi, I would like to request this right because I have met the criteria for 25 articles that are free of problems. I would like to use it for my interest in WikiProject Korea. You can see all of articles i've created here! :) Aidillia 07:08, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) In Buried Hearts, there's a bit of mess with the history, seeing that it was first deleted but later recreated and then expanded, this time, with copyright violations which remained not until GreenLipstickLesbian fixed and requested a revision deletion today. Checking through some other creations revealed some issues like grammar errors. Things like these are what the NPP is for, and English Wikipedia is not ready to keep copyvios on the site, not ever.
It also appears to be that Labor Attorney Noh Moo-jin had copyvio issues, which GLL fixed too. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:04, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
Well, I don't know if translating from a website is forbidden, because a few months ago, there was someone who reverted my edit because of no reliable sources for the description I wrote myself. So after that, what was included in the sources I used. Many people I see do that. And now I know I'm trying to remove it as much as possible and do some fixing. Aidillia 11:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
 Not done. Thanks for your interest in the permission, but the copyvio occurred last week and is a serious concern. I don't quite follow your explanation for it, so I'm not able to look past the concerns. arcticocean ■ 21:08, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

Meets the minimum criteria, and the majority of their creations have passed a quality content review. It's been a little bit since the last creation, but I believe this editor has demonstrated enough familiarity with the policies and guidelines surrounding new articles that input from NPP will not be needed in the future. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 22:25, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

 Done —Femke 🐦 (talk) 19:16, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

Cmacauley has been an editor since 2007, meets all the required criteria, and would likely benefit from having the AP right granted. This editor currently has 59 live articles and has only had one article deleted. They have consistently produced well-referenced, high-quality articles, with the majority receiving B-class ratings. Wikipedialuva (talk) 05:07, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

 Done. One adverse consideration was this warning for violation of copyright. I'm prepared to look past it: the warning was issued in 2019 and nothing recurred while the user has been highly active since then. arcticocean ■ 21:01, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

I've been around for some time, am quite familiar with tough conversations at the Teahouse or IRC (though I've sadly been inactive at the latter for a while) with new editors excitedly pushing their (often promotional) new articles, and do occasionally write new articles, 53 so far. I might as well not clutter the new pages queue. — Anon423 (talk) 01:51, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

 Done arcticocean ■ 21:18, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

Has created 166 articles, with all of them created over the last year or so are still live. As part of NPP, I reviewed Titus Joseph Mdoe and found that SiniyaEdita had created the page without the intervention from others, and I didn't think that it needed further improvement. Other articles they created are of a similar standard. Klbrain (talk) 17:03, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

I came here to echo this request. I've reviewed several of SiniyaEdita's articles and they are all of a high standard. They also expand our quality coverage of Africa. Worth noting, the user's prior account (Fsmatovu) had autopatrolled status. Dclemens1971 (talk) 03:40, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

I've seen this editor's work on multiple occasions at New Page Review. Has created 208 pages, none deleted, more than 3/4 of them B-class. High-quality page creation with infoboxes, quality references with proper formatting, images, etc., requiring no cleanup by reviewers. Dclemens1971 (talk) 17:38, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

I would like to request auto-patrolled rights on Wikipedia. I have been actively contributing to the project and have created more than 30 of articles to date, which adhere to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. I believe my experience and attention to detail make me a good fit for this role. Granting me auto-patrolled rights would help reduce the workload on other patrollers by automatically marking my new pages as reviewed.

Please feel free to review my contributions and articles to ensure they meet the necessary standards. Let me know if any additional information is required.

Thank you for considering my request! Needforname (talk) 17:39, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights Ahola .O (talk) 22:56, 11 January 2025 (UTC) I am requesting the autopatrolled user right because I have been actively contributing to Wikipedia and believe that my experience and adherence to Wikipedia's guidelines make me a suitable candidate for this right, I have created over 25 articles, all of which comply with Wikipedia's notability guidelines and content policies. My contributions have consistently aimed to enhance the quality and reliability of the encyclopedia. I believe that granting me the autopatrolled user right will help reduce the workload of new page patrollers and allow me to continue contributing to Wikipedia more efficiently. Thank you for considering my request. Ahola .O (talk)


Confirmed

Reason for requesting confirmed rights Unblock-un on hold (talk) 20:08, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

I assume this is based on this being a doppelganger, even though it's name has no relation to the name of your other claimed account? In order to establish that both accounts are controlled by the same person, please make a post here with the original account confirming the connection. Beeblebrox 23:42, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

 Done – You are now confirmed. I've temporarily added the confirmed permisssion for one month, which should be sufficient for it to become autoconfirmed. Beeblebrox 21:48, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

File mover

Page mover

Have participated in handful of RMs in past year, as well as at MRV. I've only come to RMTR once, but otherwise would be useful for disambiguation purposes. As I often create the disambig first, in order to justify a page moving away from ptopic; this often leaves me with having to swap the disambig page with the redirect and visa versa afterwards, when I simply need to perform a swap. I've otherwise closed RMs before, and would probably close more that aren't too controversial, but am often restricted due to the need to overwrite a redirect. CNC (talk) 12:54, 4 January 2025 (UTC)

Leaning towards no, mainly on account of a lack of demonstrated need, but willing to be overruled or persuaded otherwise. Primefac (talk) 19:23, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
As an example; I'd be able to close this RM if there is no consensus, as I did the previous that lacked consensus, but I wouldn't be able to if there was consensus. The one I closed had sat in the backlog for almost two months. CNC (talk) 19:35, 7 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I find myself not infrequently asking at RM/TR to move drafts over existing redirects with bits of history; I'd appreciate being able to do that myself. I also like taking in part in RMs and would like to be able to help with more than just the easiest closes. Thanks. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 18:16, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Not seeing a huge need but do agree there is a fair amount of RM and RM/TR experience. Short trial is probably on the table, will think on it. Primefac (talk) 19:31, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
 Done for three months. Primefac (talk) 19:23, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

I've been requesting occasional, regular and errant page moves at RMTR ever since I either created this account or achieved the extended-confirmed threshold. After 30 months of existence and persistence and in this new year, I'm ready to take the next step and have this right for a start as I can have an impact on this encyclopaedia. Intrisit (talk) 20:05, 7 January 2025 (UTC)


Pending changes reviewer

As I also do recent changes patrolling, having this permission will extemeley help me with combatting vandals, as edits requesting review can be viewed on the Recent Changes page, which will help me.

Rollback

I have been patrolling the recent changes page for a long time now, and it's pretty much the only thing I do on here (other then occasional copyediting.) When I learned about rollback and its benefits, I thought that could be a huge help for me and patrolling against vandalism. I love patrolling, and this will make my life so much easier.

Tenebre.Rosso.Sangue995320, I'll decline this request for now. I might grant the pending changes reviewer permission although your request for it is based on a desire for "combatting vandals" rather than accepting non-vandalism, which is what the permission primarily allows you to do. Your Simple English Wikipedia userpage, for the record, had only the following content: penis. The concerns voiced by others on your user talk page seem to confirm my original impression of a lack of experience (and perhaps simply maturity). When you patrol recent changes and inform users about the problems with their edits, the impression you make on the newcomers will often be their primary impression from Wikipedia (or its moderation, its perceived representatives, its community) as a whole. It may help to imagine Wikipedia as a workplace where you interact with colleagues, everyone is paid to behave professionally and to improve the encyclopedia while sitting in an office with a cup of coffee on the desk. Imagine there's a meeting on, let's say 21 February 2025, in this room here, where you apply for the position as "rollbacker" in your company. In your application, you could provide a few examples for obvious, clear vandalism that you reverted, and that you could have reverted more efficiently if you had had access to a rollback link. Perhaps you could also provide a few counterexamples where you undid someone's good-faith contributions and explained the problem to the user, which is a situation where using rollback wouldn't have been an option, and you are aware of this. Feel free to notify me about the request and I'll probably grant it. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:23, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
 Not done yet ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:24, 11 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason for requesting rollback rights

Hello! I routinely go to the Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection when I spot vandalism. I believe this would make the process of resolving issues faster. If you need links to my requests, I can provide them! If there is more things I could do, please tell me. NotQualified (talk) 22:49, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

NotQualified, I think this is too early. If you can provide 10 diff links to edits made by you that would have benefited from the rollback permission, I'll reconsider. Else, please actively patrol Special:RecentChanges for at least a month, sending warning messages to users whose edits you have reverted, and reporting users at WP:AIV who ignore the warnings. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 01:25, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
