- Gundaraaj (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a disruptive username. The username refers to a "system run by gangsters" (see https://www.jstor.org/stable/43908005). The editor also received warnings for disruption and was introduced to CT-notice as well. I believe it will only cause further disruption under this username. — DaxServer (t·m·e·c) 10:30, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- I presume the name is a reference to current Indian politics which is what they are editing on, hence the contentious topics notification. I'm not sure this is a username issue though. Secretlondon (talk) 12:19, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. It doesn't look frequent enough for an increase to ECP. (I did update the CTOPS notice on the talk page to mention the semi-protection, though). Daniel Case (talk) 18:38, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Dubious reports across Twitter, Facebook and Instagram reporting that she has died.

- Semi-protected for a period of three months, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will leave CTOPS notice (IPA seems best fit, although this could conceivable come under not only IRP but A-A as well ... the case is slowly building for making almost everything from the Bosporus west to Afghanistan and Pakistan a CTOP area).

Current requests for reduction in protection level edit
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.
Rebecca Black edit
Reason: The protection is no longer necessary because recent revision history does not show excessive disruptive editing within the last few months. 70.50.199.125 (talk) 04:52, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- Ping Gfoley4 as the admin who protected in 2011. I assume unprotection would be ok. Johnuniq (talk) 05:04, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Are you sure the lack of disruption isn't because of the protection? - Sumanuil. (talk to me)
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.
Talk:Israel–Hamas war edit
I would like to request the addition of a talk page on the Israel-Hamas war article that points out that the map on said article doesn’t show the Israeli evacuation order from Rafah and should be updated. LordOfWalruses (talk) 21:45, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
Not done. This is too vague. It is not clear what you want. Administrators here are not necessarily familiar with the subject article. Your request must be specific and complete, saying exactly what should be changed, and why, and what supports the change you want. ~Anachronist (talk) 18:15, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Israel–Hamas war edit
Please alter the following sentence: "Israel's upcoming offensive in Rafah, criticized by the international community, is nearing execution while ceasefire negotiations remain ongoing." However, on the Rafah offensive page, the lede reads "On 6 May 2024, Israel began a military offensive in and around the city of Rafah." Simply put, the Rafah offensive should no longer be characterized in the Israel-Hamas war article as "upcoming" if it is currently ongoing. JohnR1Roberts (talk) 13:31, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
Done. Because the administrators who monitor this page aren't involved with that article, it would be easier if you formulated requests in the form "change 'X' to 'Y'". ~Anachronist (talk) 18:11, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrolled editUser:Princess of Ara edit
I recently noticed this user, Princess of Ara. An editor who works mainly on Nigerian related articles and others. While trying to appreciate the user's effort, I got in love with the lovely articles, well sources, written from a volunteer in good faith and now, I am requesting that she be granted the auto patrol user right. It'll also help reduce heavy backlog of NPP. Thanks for your consideration! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 08:05, 30 April 2024 (UTC) User:Prince of Erebor edit
I have created 77 articles, primarily focused on Sinophone cinema and fantasy literature, with 2 currently undergoing GAN. All of my articles have been promptly reviewed, and none of them have been deleted or marked for maintenance. I am requesting autopatrolled rights to alleviate the workload of the patrollers, especially those who actively review film articles and have reviewed the majority of my articles, allowing them to allocate more time to address articles that truly require attention. As a side note, I am a veteran editor with patroller rights on Chinese Wikipedia, having authored over 200 articles, including a dozen featured and good articles. While I fully understand that there are differences in policies and MOS across different Wikipedias, I believe this demonstrates my credibility and knowledge in assessing article quality.— Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 13:18, 1 May 2024 (UTC) User:SheriffIsInTown edit
I frequently create articles on notable subjects, having authored 530 articles, with the majority facing no issues. Only three were deleted, mainly due to changes in election results affecting their notability. I'm requesting autopatroller rights to ease the burden on other editors reviewing my articles and help reduce the backlog of new article reviews. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 23:36, 4 May 2024 (UTC) User:Xoak edit
Hey, @Schwede66: I've done everything you have suggested me do here, and followed the edit summary instructions you've given such as default sorting my previous articles, fixing PP and P in citations, using SFN template and using Book or Journal templates in Bibliography, etc. I've also created half a dozen new articles as per your suggestion, and I believe they are unproblematic.

New page reviewer editUser:Florificapis edit
I got busy in real life for most of March and April, so my request was put on hold per [2]. Here is my original reason for requesting NPR permissions again. I have over 120 new articles under my belt, mostly relating to medieval history, monasteries, saints, and geographical features. I am familiar with the kinds of content that would fall under CSD criteria, since I have experience wikifying new pages and tagging obviously problematic new pages for speedy deletion. I know the guidelines on notability, proper sourcing, draftifying new articles, rating talk pages using scripts, AfC, AfD, and other essential patrolling tasks. Would be quite happy to reduce the backlog while being cautious and careful. Also currently a Pending Changes Reviewer. Florificapis (talk) 00:09, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

I would like to participate in the NPP backlog drive.
User:TarnishedPath edit
I participated in the December backlog drive, being granted a trial. At the end of the trial I requested permanent NPP, which was denied with the denying admin expressing concern that I hadn't created any articles. I've since created an article about Neeraj Gupta (refer to User_talk:TarnishedPath/Archive_2#Your_submission_at_Articles_for_creation:_Neeraj_Gupta_(sculptor)_has_been_accepted) and been responsible for the bulk of the material in the newly created article Bruce Lehrmann. I had been working on Draft:Bruce Lehrmann but someone else started work on Bruce Lehrmann just as I submitted Draft:Bruce Lehrmann to AfC so I ended up merging my work over to the mainspace article and issuing a CSD for deletion of the draft. I've continued to be semi-regularly involved with AfD. I'm applying because I got a notification a while ago that there was a backlog drive for May and I'm willing to help out a bit with that.

User:Trainsskyscrapers edit
Hello. I was initially given a month long trial as a new page reviewer after receiving an invitation on my user page, and I've been enjoying everything so far: reviewing pages, providing feedback, sending WikiLove to new and returning users who have made exceptional first attempts, tagging issues, and resolving issues myself (that could otherwise be tagged) when I have time in an attempt to reduce the backlog. I have already been renewed once, and my second trial expires in a little over two weeks (May 26th). I'm requesting either an indefinite or longer-term ability to review new pages before my time lapses. Haven't had any behavioral issues, and I try to treat all users with respect. I will continue to help clear the backlog in the meantime. Thanks again. Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 00:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

I was turned down last July 2023 as being too early. I have since increased my article (incl. BLP) creation, and have done major overhaul and expansions of important topic articles here. I remain autopatrolled on Wikipedia and WikiCommons, continue to participate in AfD, and have done some PRODS. Am willing to learn the NPP process. Thank you.
