usernames are acceptable if they contain a company or group name but are clearly intended to denote an individual person, such as "Mark at WidgetFactory"
. Cullen328 (talk) 19:12, 20 August 2024 (UTC)- @Cullen328 I am aware of what anything that has to do with usernames, but this person is clearly Draft:David Goldschlag and not “Dan”. What if Dan is something else at this point? As well, what if Dan is actually a person. I’d let this pass. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 20:11, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
- (passing-by user) Unless there's something that proves that Dan is a department or something, then this is not a username violation as it reads like 'Dan at Aembit'.
- Their edits could be a other-policies violation, but that doesn't need to be dealt with in this username board. 2804:F1...A7:C558 (talk) 20:52, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for increase in protection level
editPlace 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.
Reason: I am requesting full page protection for at least one year, if not indefinite, for Tennis at the 2024 Summer Olympics. Consistent edit warring and removing/moving of information in the article without consensus. The disruptive editor claims it goes against WP:OLYMPICS guidelines, which have no fixed and outlined layout for SPORT at YEAR Summer Olympic pages in their guidelines or MOS. Tennis project's Olympic page layout is standard and within consensus. This warring has been going on for a full month. No attempts to reason on either of the project's talk pages or this page's talk page was any fruitful. They falsely accuse others of violating the guidelines when they are the ones causing the disruption.

Current requests for reduction in protection level
editBefore 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.
Current requests for edits to a protected page
editPlease 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.
"Israeli military activities in the Gaza Strip remained unchanged following adoption of the resolution" needs a marker: citation needed. AmbroseVenture (talk) 18:42, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
"On 28 March, the IDF shot and killed two unarmed men in central Gaza, before burying them in sand with bulldozers.[397]" needs to be altered, the source gives two contradicting stories which CNN (the source) didn't clear up. In the article AJ argues without evidence the two videos they present are from the same people, the IDF tells those were two separate incidents. This has to be cleared up to remain factual. AmbroseVenture (talk) 18:44, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
The casualty figures for Syria and Lebanon need updating as they are now out of date, the page states that 326 Hezbollah fighters have been killed in Lebanon and 60 in Syria for a total of 386 but Hezbollah itself has admitted that over 410 of its fighters have been killed, the IDF has also provided consistent on the number of Hezbollah fighters eliminated, all of this information is easily accessible. 2A00:23C8:90A:1601:4D05:F3D3:86E0:59B9 (talk) 13:36, 20 August 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrollededit
Reviewer Aszx5000 has messaged me twice that I should be autopatrolled. I don't care for my sake, since the process works fine for me, but I don't want to be a burden on the reviewers. Please either grant or deny this status based on whatever you think is best for the community. Thanks! Jordanroderick (talk) 23:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)
Would like to cut down on the backlog of pages that need to be reviewed while I create pages, especially as of recent where I've been working on creating pages for military battles, and Bahmani rulers. I definitely believe the pages I've created shows I am familiar with the guidelines of page notability, and especially quality. I've practiced with this being a new page patroller myself.

I edit a lot of drafts and newly created articles. Whether it's fixing MOS issues or improving a draft, my workflow is quite slow. Looking to use AWB to remove the requirement of having several browser tools installed. My main interests of this program are the database scanner (for new page patrol edits pertaining to orphans), and the aforementioned efficiency that I am seeking.

Hello, I'd like to help contribute to wikipedia by archiving sports uniforms, specifically hockey. Many teams outside the NHL do not have their uniforms displayed on their site. I figured to get thru the 10 edits I would update NHL teams for the 2024/2025 season. I'm not necessarily able to edit because the only pages that currently have these are locked as far as I can find. Please mind you, I have followed the requirements 100%. I am happy to make these edits elsewhere, but as noted, I'm not able to find unlocked pages that already have uniform images. Here is an example of an updated uniform set for the Toronto Maple Leafs Link Here 27JJ (talk) 05:26, 20 August 2024 (UTC) |

Reason for requesting extended confirmed rights I am a contributor with a major focus on indigenous languages, Hausa, to be specific. I am requesting for this right so that I can have access of translating articles from English to Hausa.

New page revieweredit
Hello there, I am interested tn helping out in new page reviewing as there are very large articles backlog and love to do so. Xegma(talk) 07:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
I would like to request new page reviewer rights to help review newly-created articles and lower the backlog. I have accepted lots of drafts at AFC and participated in many AfDs with deep discussions to exhibit my knowledge of notability, as I was advised previously. Thanks! Waqar💬 19:55, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
I was given a trial for a few months and would like to renew my permissions. I have made good use of my permissions by fixing new pages and judiciously applying CSD whenever necessary. I am still active at NPP and will continue to make good use of my permissions upon renewal. Florificapis (talk) 22:45, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
I'd like to help out with the backlog at NPP. My previous experience includes many nominations of drafts under G1, G2, and G3, and a couple instances of article ratings and XfD participation. Rusty 🐈 03:48, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
I would like to become a new page patrol to accelerate the page creation process, improve the quality of Wikipedia pages, and reduce the huge current backlog. I have a good understanding of what a qualified article would look like, and created around four articles like Organothallium Chemistry. I have also done various other editing, including merging Carbohydrate Chemistry into Carbohydrate. Pygos (talk) 06:35, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
Two months ago I was given the new page reviewer right, and I want to continue with it. I trust I have made good contributions. Thanks in advance. Tajotep (talk) 10:17, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
I have created 85 pages including a GA. I am familiar with the p&g on notability and reliable sources. Would like to put my knowledge to use by reviewing pages and help out WikiProject Korea a bit more. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 05:05, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
My last request was declined due to vague votes in AfD. Since then, I have taken my time to learn more and not just rushed to re-request the rights. Then I had created 50 articles when the request was denied. Currently, I have over 714 articles with only 5 deleted. This shows that I have understanding of what GNG and what SIGCOV is. It will be a pleasure in helping reduce the backlog of new created pages. Tumbuka Arch (talk) 09:44, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
Per Joe Roe's post on WikiProject Linguistics, I would be willing to help out reviewing new linguistics articles. Botterweg14 (talk) 22:14, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
I requested this perm a while ago before I was adequately experienced, and it was recently suggested that I apply again. Since my first request I have participated a lot more at AfC and AfD, which I think has shown me aspects of notability/deletion/creation policies I had less of a grasp of then. I think it would be good to help given the backlog (particularly where it relates to events and literature where I believe myself to have the best grasp on notability criteria). I would like to help with the redirect backlog as well. Thanks! PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:20, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
I request that I have page reviewer rights to lower the backlog. I typically create articles in royalty and nobility and have made 16 successful articles specialised in royalty as well as I contribute a lot to them and made 4 specialised in writers. I have 1,700 edits in the 9 months I have been on Wikipedia meaning I contribute daily. I do often look at the articles in page patrol and add tags when needed, also draft when needed and delete when needed. I really hope that I can help reduce the backlog! Thanks in advance. Azarctic (talk) 01:37, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
I have created numerous pages and have been involved in AFD. I have a clear understanding of notability guidelines and a careful look at my AFD comments/votes will attest to my understanding of notability policy. I request this right to help in reviewing new articles to reduce the huge backlog of new articles waiting in review queues. Ednabrenze (talk) 09:19, 20 August 2024 (UTC) |

Pending changes revieweredit
I have been monitoring recent changes on pages for a while now AlexBobCharles (talk) 08:36, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
I’ve been editing for a little while now, I’ve requested page protection and reverted edits which are not appropriate on various pages. I am pretty devoted to editing on Wikipedia and I have an extensive Watchlist so I think this permission would be useful. Adriazeri (talk) 22:55, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
I've been monitoring the pages in Wikipedia for a long time. I try my best to review new changes, revert any vandalism and provide authenticity. This permission will help me review the pages more fluently. MSouvik01 (talk) 21:14, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
Did all the requirements and patrolled the recent changes page for a rotating number of days. My account also meets all the requirements.
I've been creating and monitoring articles in Wikipedia for a long time and its time to a new step in this great community. TheFrenchKing (talk) 21:05, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
Here's a concise request template for pending changes reviewer rights: Hello, I’d like to request pending changes reviewer rights. I’ve been an active editor for a month with over 200+ edits.

Rollbackedit
Hi, I am familiar with helpful tools such as SWViewer and Twinkle and use them frequently, as well as the relevant guidelines for fighting vandalism. You can see from my contribution history that I always notify the users whose edits I am reverting. Greetings, MrBenjo (talk) 20:12, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I would like to request rollback rights to help combat vandalism and maintain the quality of Wikipedia content. I have been actively contributing to Wikipedia and have made over 200+ edits. My focus has primarily been on Indian television shows, vandalism patrol, content cleanup, etc. I have encountered multiple instances where rollback would have been useful to revert obvious vandalism quickly. I am familiar with Wikipedia’s rollback policy and understand that it should only be used to undo edits that are clearly unproductive. I am committed to using this tool responsibly and in line with Wikipedia's guidelines. Thank you for considering my request. Tenshi Uisu (talk) 18:39, 20 August 2024 (UTC)
