Current requests for increase in protection level
[edit]Place requests for protection increases at the BOTTOM of this section. If you cannot find your request, check the archive of requests or, failing that, the page history. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The "D" in "A. D. Whitfield" is being continually vandalized to a "B". Suggest page protection for 24 hours to 1 week. Iljhgtn (talk) 02:53, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Temporary extended-confirmed protection: Addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content. Repeated deletion of existing sourced content and replacement with unsourced promotional material by single purpose editor (very like COI or a paid editor). Temporary protection for now would likely suffice until the user can be sorted out. 10mmsocket (talk) 09:10, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Extended-confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive editing and sockpuppetry since April. Kajmer05 (talk) 10:22, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Persistent addition of unsourced BLP violations. LightlySeared (talk) 10:29, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – New accounts and IPs restoring edits by CU-blocked editor. Previous socks were blocked. Mellk (talk) 10:46, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The article was previously protected earlier this month as an IP and suspected sock was adding poorly sourced information and edit warring and was reverted by multiple users, see diffs: [2], [3], [4].
That same IP has now returned following the expiration of the page protection to add the exact same content: [5], [6].
Please can the article be protected once again to keep it stable. Ixudi (talk) 11:20, 2 July 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content. Waxworker (talk) 11:39, 2 July 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]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.
Reason: Reduce to indefinite semi-protection since no other NFL teams' pages are ECP (been in place for 4 years), feels a bit unfair to new users who actually have good edits to make on the team. MakaylaHippo1998 (talk) 19:10, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]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.
Please correct the Iranian civilian casualties in paragraph three. First it was changed without reason from 200 to 600. Then someone changed and separated the estimate by Human Rights Activists in Iran News Agency (HRANA) estimate to be over 1,100 civilians killed which is conflating all deaths with civilians. No source was added to support this. The sources currently listed next to these sentences actually say 200 but these are out off date. HRANA's latest figure is actually 431 civilians killed. The source is presently used in the infobox for their own estimate of 1,190 total deaths. The Iranian government hasn't released updated figures so that should be removed until they have an estimate. I suggest adding the following sentence:
"According to the anti-government Human Rights Activists in Iran News Agency, 1,190 Iranians were killed including at least 431 civilians."

Autopatrolled[edit]
I've been here for almost two decades, with 30k+ edits and a fair number of articles created in the mean time. I believe I am well-qualified for autopatrolled perms. _dk (talk) 23:50, 16 June 2025 (UTC)
Hi. Based upon my learning and experience over the years of editing on Wikipedia (almost a decade now), I have created very selected pages which I find qualifying Wikipedia policies. If I find them trending in news but un-complying with the policies, I usually leave a redirect, or occasionally start with the draft. I believe not a single page that I created and/or majorly contributed has been deleted, and many respected editors and admins whom I had interacted with have always been helpful and supportive, believing in my good faith. Plus I only rewrite those articles in bad state which I find relevant, and not every other random article. However, due to recent attacks by sock puppetry over my edits, I want to be an autopatrolled user, so that I can easily continue volunteering independently here, and participate in the ongoing Destubathon as well. I promise I will not misuse this position. Thank you! M. Billoo 13:24, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
Requested this permission ~2 months ago, denied because I was mostly creating auto-notable stubs. I think I have expanded the types of articles I create, including well-sourced local pages or biographical entries where I take time to source subjects that do not inherently meet a generic notability criteria. (I still do create auto-notable pages sometimes, but those no longer make up the majority of pages I create.) As a new page reviewer, I got good experience with the notability guidelines reviewing articles during the backlog drive WP:MAY25, and also participating in AfD. Thought about requesting again as I have run into a few of my own pages while reviewing pages that are in topics I contribute to/am interested in. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:15, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

AutoWikiBrowser[edit]
Hello, I would like to use the editor mainly to have access to backreferences for editing using regular expressions. My actual use case would be to make a 300-line table sortable by last name. Work with data would also be useful. I also would like to be able to speed up formatting more generally, e.g. italics, quote marks, etc. Selbsportrait (talk) 22:27, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
I'm back again! I previously requested this to help with WP:POSTMOVE for links to Guna language (then withdrew that request), but since then I've realised there are a few areas I could use this tool in, not least for updating non-linked uses of "Kuna" and "Cuna" for Guna language and Guna people (of which there seem to be quite a lot). I might also use it for linking/redlinking new articles (for instance, some of the drafts I'm currently working on), and also to help out with updating some of the 90,000+ articles transcluding (the now-deprecated) Template:EngvarB to other English-variety templates. Obviously there might also be some typo correction etc. as required. Pineapple Storage (talk) 17:03, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
Hello again. I'd like AWB rights to fix typos in Category:All Wikipedia articles needing copy edit, especially the really common MOS:CURLY violations.

Extended confirmed[edit]
Reason for requesting extended confirmed rights My EC/XC status was suspended with extended conformed restriction due to a mistake in Special:Diff/1296492089. The status was removed by Star Mississippi, who said that I was welcome to reapply, after explaining myself, especially contradicting that I had won my status through gaming. After checking my editorial history, there was general agreement in the discussion that that was not the case. The discussion is located in: Jensenjan and WP:XC WP:GAMING I am now more careful with unintentionally wading into sensitive subjects and I continue to edit less controversial entries.I respectfully ask to have my EC/XC status reinstalled.

New page reviewer[edit]
Hi, I'm requesting rights be extended after a one month trial. I would like to request permanent NPR rights if possible, as I have greatly enjoyed contributing in this capacity and I am eager to help reduce the backlog. Thanks! Halley luv Filipino ❤ (Talk) 00:23, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
I'm a patroller on the Hebrew Wikipedia with extensive experience in content review and Wikipedia policies. I am also familiar with English Wikipedia's guidelines and have been actively participating here, including contributing to article creation and quality control processes. I would like to contribute to New Page Patrol, mainly on topics related to Israel, Judaism, and Hungary, and I would be happy to expand my knowledge and activity into additional areas.

NPR temporary permissions set to expire within a week. Requesting extension or permanent permissions. I have not been as active in the NPR space as I'd like to be, being very busy with the AfC Backlog Drive. Regardless, thank you for your time! MWFwiki (talk) 21:23, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
Hi there, my rights expire on the 30th and I would like to request an extension. I did ask a few weeks ago since I know of the perennial backlog here, but got rejected on the basis it was too early. I'm reapplying now since it's a little under a week until that happens. Aydoh8[what have I done now?] 23:34, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
I was granted reviewer rights for two times, both were temporary. I'm here requesting the right again to review the articles and make the burden less for others too. I was not active like before due to some personal issues, but I'm going to be active now. Please consider extending my rights. Thankyou Taabii (talk) 17:23, 25 June 2025 (UTC)
Hello there, this is my third time requesting new page reviewer permissions, as the previous two requests were granted on a one-month trial basis and the current trial will end on the 30th of June. I have learnt a lot about the policies for notability and inclusion and will be able to reduce the size of the unreviewed pages backlog significantly. JustARandomEditor123 (talk) 06:07, 27 June 2025 (UTC)
I am currently an AFC reviewer and am familiar with the deletion processes. I would like to help clear the backlog as well as help in identifying spam, copyrighted and promo pages. I believe I meet the criteria for this right. I am requesting a trial. Thanks Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 01:04, 29 June 2025 (UTC)
Hello, my rights expired and I completely forgot to reapply till now. I would like to request an extension, as I think I didn't do enough patrolling to warrant a permanent grant (thanks AfC backlog drive). Thank you. mwwv converse∫edits 01:10, 30 June 2025 (UTC)

My current NPR rights are due to expire on 1 July 2025. While I may not be reviewing in large volumes, I focus on thorough, policy-aligned reviews that aim to improve or appropriately tag each page. I’d like to keep my NPR rights for continued constructive contributions. Thank You. Ambrosiawater (talk) 07:55, 30 June 2025 (UTC) |

Pending changes reviewer[edit]
Hello, While patrolling the recent changes, I often run into pending changes. I think I am a good candidate for this permission because I already revert vandalism prolifically. I have read WP:RPC and whenever I revert something that's not blatant vandalism/a BLP violation, I always include an adequate edit summary, so I would also be able to tell which pending changes are low-quality good-faith edits and let them through (with amendments after, possibly). I also never engage in edit wars or abuse my rollback function. Spotemgottem (talk) 08:27, 29 June 2025 (UTC)
I found a reviewable edit that was not good and had already been reverted the first time it was placed. I reverted the new version of it, since the edit was not following the Wikipedia guidelines. I think that I should have Reviewing pending changes rights, since I have experience with reverting vandalism and disruptive edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Floating Orb (talk • contribs) 19:37, 1 July 2025 (UTC)

Requests for rollback |

Rollback[edit]
I’m a very active recent changes patroller, very comfortable identifying vandalism and using WP:TW to revert, warn, and report vandals. I’m careful to avoid using immediate revert unless the edit is obviously vandalism. Rollback would allow me to more efficiently fight very active vandals before an administrator is able to block them. I would still use WP:TW in most cases, for routine recent changes patrol.

I’ve been using Twinkle to revert vandalism from recent changes and warn users for a while now. I’ve been doing this for about two years, with some breaks because of school and life, but I’ve stayed consistent overall. I know what counts as vandalism and what doesn’t, and I always try to assume good faith. I’d really appreciate rollback to help make reverting quicker and save time. I can be trusted with the tool and use it properly. Thank you, ItsCheck (talk) 01:05, 29 June 2025 (UTC)

"Do you want to take a survey?"
[edit]On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.

Early Anon work, no need to bug the developers
[edit]Up to Dec 16, 2003, all the edits at these anonymous id's were mine (59 edits):

More recently 1,250 or so edits on 75.41.110.200 are apparently all mine. Apparently my new ID is 75.41.109.190. There are undoubtedly many others as the earliest history of many articles was not preserved by the software.
