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.


Diophantus[edit]

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Dirsuption by IP sock of banned user Jagged 85. Khirurg (talk) 13:39, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined Not persistant. If the IP is a sock then they can be blocked but there is insufficient details. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 18:58, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Waqar Zaka[edit]

Full protection: I suggest to WP:SALT this title because it was deleted and created multiple times by UPEs. — Saqib (talk I contribs) 14:31, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined Move to draftspace. Article is not identical to the one listed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Waqar Zaka (3rd nomination). However, this does not look that notable. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:24, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Kinky Friedman[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Unsourced death. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 15:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined His death has been sourced. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:28, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

The Lawnmower Man[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Resumption of vandalism (insertion of kids TV images) within hours of protection having ended. Nat Gertler (talk) 16:15, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

User(s) blocked: 181.202.0.0/16 (talk · contribs). Partial block from the article in question. Favonian (talk) 17:42, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
The same material was readded by a different IP.... and then undone by the same IP, but I think that indicates that this block has not stopped efforts. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 21:06, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Yavoriv military base attack[edit]

Reason: IP users adding unsourced information, also per WP:UKRRUS Mr.User200 (talk) 16:21, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. there has not be an IP edit the page since 16 May. You should discuss this at Talk:Yavoriv military base attack CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:48, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

2023 Odisha train collision[edit]

Reason: IP vandalism. The article is in the middle of a GA Review and improvements are being made. There are repeated disruptions by probably the same user (from multiple IPs, so no point of warning!). Request temporary semi-protection. Magentic Manifestations (talk) 16:31, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:50, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Eaton Township Weis Markets shooting[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Jdcomix (talk) 18:37, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Disruptive editing by a specific group of IPs. 100.7.34.111 (talk) 20:49, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Todd Russell[edit]

Reason: Contentious leader of a disputed Indigenous organization. IPs do not like that the sources indicate that he is of dual heritage and the organisation he heads claims to be Inuit rather than Métis. CambridgeBayWeather (solidly non-human), Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 20:57, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Death of Nex Benedict[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: BLP policy violations – Immediately following prior protection expiring an RD2 vandalism on a contentious topic per WP:GENSEX. Requesting indef this time. Raladic (talk) 21:43, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Iszac Henig[edit]

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent misgendering. Not an especially high volume of disruptive edits, but almost all edits by IPs/new users within the past year (I didn't look further) have been MOS:ID violations. Callitropsis🌲[talk · contribs] 22:36, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Kyle Filipowski[edit]

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.

Sky Express (Greece)[edit]

Reason: Pending changes protection was added over 10 years ago due to increased vandalism at the time. I don't believe there's still need for it, with its generally low frequency of both edits and vandalism. —Dimsar01 Talk ⌚→ 20:59, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Syria[edit]

Reason: The protection was put up 12 years ago and there isn't that much vandalism going on that much lately. User1432532758 (talk) 22:06, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

  • Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:31, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Bill Gates (disambiguation)[edit]

Reason: Not much vandalism has been going on lately. User1432532758 (talk) 22:09, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. There was plenty of vandalism prior to protection, and few valid reasons to edit this. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:31, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

State of Somaliland[edit]

Reason: Vandalism hasn't been going on since 2017 when the protection was put up. User1432532758 (talk) 22:41, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

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.

User:RodRabelo7[edit]

Hello,

Recently, I have made hundreds of edits primarily consisting of correcting proper names related to Brazil and, more generally, to the Portuguese-speaking world. For example, I have fixed the name of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, President of Brazil, which was incorrectly spelled on dozens, if not hundreds, of pages (sometimes as Luís Inácio, Luis Inacio, etc.). Other cases relating to presidents of Brazil include José Sarney (sometimes spelled Jose Sarney), Juscelino Kubitschek (sometimes spelled Juscelino Kubitscheck), and so on, to avoid going into too much detail. Regarding place names, I have corrected Rio de Janeiro (sometimes spelled Río de Janeiro, Rio De Janeiro, etc.), São Paulo (sometimes spelled Sao Paulo, etc.), Brasília (often spelled Brasilia), and so forth. There are more to be corrected, such as Belém, Maranhão, and so on.

That said, I would like to gain access to AutoWikiBrowser to make these edits more easily and efficiently, no more being so limited to redirects as I currently am. For what it's worth, I am fully aware of WP:NOTBROKEN, so I will not make changes to valid redirects, but rather to those with spelling errors ("Spelling errors and other mistakes should be corrected. Don't link to a misspelled redirect"). I also refer to WP:DIACRITICS, emphasizing that the changes I make are well-supported by English-language sources.

Finally, given that AutoWikiBrowser is such a powerful tool, I commit to being cautious while using it, always following the principle "if I'm not sure, I won't do it", to avoid issues that could lead to losing access to it. I have some knowledge of regular expressions, which could be useful when operating it.

Thank you, RodRabelo7 (talk) 18:44, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

Requests for confirmation

Confirmed[edit]

User:Rmesrmes[edit]

Dear Wikipedians: I'm a Brazilian user with a good grasp in Inkscape who is looking forward to help converting some raster images from the following page to SVG: Images that should be in SVG format

My main interested in that is both to contribute to Wikipedia and to get more experience with vectorial illustrations. However, I cannot upload SVG versions in those images file history because my account is not autoconfirmed (it has less than 10 edits in EN Wikipedia, even though I have more than that in PT Wikipedia).

I'm asking for the "confirmed" flag because I'll probably never do 10 or more edits in EN Wikipedia articles, mainly because I have good reading skills in English, but I'm at "base level" writing in that language. Rmesrmes (talk) 01:58, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

@Rmesrmes: you should be able to upload these images to Commons in most cases as most of the source images appear to have acceptable licensing. Elli (talk | contribs) 14:15, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Category:Convert to SVG and copy to Wikimedia Commons is the best place to start, you will be able to both get the experience you want, improve the images, and make them widely available to hundreds of other projects! — xaosflux Talk 14:25, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for the input, Elli and xaosflux! I'll work through those images! I've also found another similar list at Wikimedia Commons here [1]. I believe both of those links solve my problem. Thanks! Rmesrmes (talk) 17:14, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

This account itself is new but I'm far from new to editing. I just got through adding the userpage disclosures for the main two accounts I've done any significant amount of editing from in the past, Anarkinsey and Gawaxay. Gawaxay would probably be the one that would qualify me, but if I'm completely honest I have no idea what that committed identity string would have been. It's completely understandable if that makes this whole thing suspicious (why, past me?!), but I figured it might be worth a shot. Kinsio (talk) 00:43, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

I have been given temporary NPR rights for 2 months trial which ends on 16 June. I don't think I've made any blatant error while reviewing pages and hope that Wikipedia is being benefitted by my reviews. I would still like to keep reducing backlogs of sports articles.

User:MikutoH[edit]

I believe I'm capable of reviewing new articles and drafts. Check my global contributions and user rights. Though this specific user group doesn't exist on ptwiki, my first-language/native Wikipedia, I believe I have potential in helping others creating articles and filtering enwiki. I have the draftify script installed and knowledge with policies. I've been working and have created some articles, such as Sapphism, Asexual flag, Plurisexuality, and Lists of LGBT politicians, as it shows, I have interest in sexuality area, as well as lists, categories, and redirects, as shown in my edits. --MikutoH talk! 00:33, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello folks, my 2-month trial period is coming to an end soon, so I am submitting this request for an extension. During this trial, I focused on reviewing articles extensively to demonstrate my capability. I successfully reviewed and also nominated several articles for deletion, with a success rate of 99%. Therefore, I am requesting an extension to continue using this tool and contributing further. Thank you. GSS💬 09:01, 20 June 2024 (UTC) GSS💬 09:01, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi. I would like to request an extension of my temporary NPP rights.

User:Anwegmann[edit]

I was given a two-moth extension about two months ago, and I wanted to apply now for full-time approval to be a new page reviewer. I have been active in AfDs, and, as suggested in my temporary approval last time, I have reviewed many more pages than the first two months of my reviewership. All of the AfDs I have created have spawned genuine discussion, and I have also approved several new pages that pass the standards of WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. I feel as though I have done enough to earn full-time approval, but I would appreciate any approval the admins are willing to give. I enjoy this work, and I enjoy helping clean up Wikipedia. Thank you for your consideration. Anwegmann (talk) 00:08, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Requests for page mover

Page mover[edit]


User:PadFoot2008[edit]

Hello, I'd like to request page mover rights as I often come across articles that do not follow the Wikipedia:Article titles policy and though usually move those articles myself, they sometimes can't be moved due to technical reasons. I have participated in numerous WP:RMs and opened many significant ones, as well as performed many moves myself over the past. Thank you. PadFoot2008 04:07, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

I am slightly concerned about the number of recent reverted moves. Primefac (talk) 14:45, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Saqib[edit]

So I plan on using it to address page move vandalism and for other non-controversial tasks such as WP:RM.— Saqib (talk I contribs) 10:38, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

 Done. Primefac (talk) 14:48, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Wowlastic10[edit]

I am enough experienced for this role (as per the terms and conditions) and I will actively contribute to the community. Arigato! Wowlastic10 (talk) 13:57, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

 Not done for now; just because one meets the numerical requirements for a PERM does not mean they need to have that PERM. I see almost no RM participation, very few moves (especially ones that would require suppression of a redirect) and no RM/TR requests. If you actually find yourself needing this permission by all means feel free to request again in the future, but your request (and your experience from what I can see) does not indicate you do at this point in time.

Requests for pending changes reviewer

Pending changes reviewer[edit]

User:48JCL[edit]

I'm a productive user that has warned people in the past for distruptive editing, COI, vandalism and more. I usually try to complete things I start and it is very painful for me to look at Special:PendingChanges having tons of articles. I would definitely try to reduce the backlog. 48JCL 23:45, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

User:HypeBoy[edit]

I have been helping in improving Wikipedia for three years now, and I am familiar with the wikipedia policy on vandalism as well as the main points of NPOV, Verifiability, WP:NOR, and WP:NOT. I'm hoping I can contribute more to Wikipedia by having PCR right. Thank you. — ‎‎‎hhypeboyh 💬✏️ 00:34, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Requests for rollback

Rollback[edit]

User:JoBoGamer[edit]

Reason for requesting rollback rights: i have some experience reverting changes via Special:RecentChanges and i always warn users of reverts i make to their changes where possible, wether this be via RedWarn or via Twinkle.

I think this could benefit me with reverting changes and have much less hassle with it all. JoBo Gamer (contribs) 11:20, 27 June 2024 (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.

    Short To Do list[edit]

    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.

    List of most of my original pictures and some maps[edit]
