Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level

[edit]
Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Place requests for new or upgrading of article protection, upload protection, or create 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: High level of vandalism from auto-confirmed accounts 125.160.115.228 (talk) 12:13, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Zero disruptive edits since December 16. BusterD (talk) 12:40, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 14:45, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

User(s) blocked. Since only one IP sock has vandalized that page, page protection likely isn't warranted. Feel free to request again if they come back. --Ahecht (TALK

)
15:40, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
Since the block evading user has used multiple IPs on this page before (among others), it doesn't help to leave the page unprotected even with blocks implemented. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 16:48, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Continued multi-account vandalism; page protection expired just yesterday. Synorem (talk) 14:49, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent vandalism, came back after two weeks of semi-protection. Entranced98 (talk) 15:28, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Frequent vandalism from various IPs since 16:28, 18 December 2024. Alith Anar 15:40, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – new editor keeps adding unsourced puffery and redundant content, first as an IP and now as a SPA. Echoedmyron (talk) 15:55, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I've also blocked the SPA, given their rather obvious IP editing prior to creating said account. --Kinu t/c 16:33, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

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 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: Lil Dicky was semi-protected back in 2019. Now that five years have passed, could the semi-protection be lifted? I asked the protecting administrator and received no response. 174.93.89.27 (talk) 00:25, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Adding a little contextual info, this same request was declined 8 hrs before this by ToBeFree. IP did contact Protecting admin (Materialscientist on Dec 22) before the first request, but Materialscientist has not replied to that, and has replied to a different discussion just below that one since then (on Dec 24). Zinnober9 (talk) 05:30, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
  • Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 09:44, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
  • My request was denied on the basis that I should have contact the protecting editor. But I had contacted the protecting editor and he did not respond, despite being active on Wikipedia afterward. 174.93.89.27 (talk) 14:27, 26 December 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.

Autopatrolled

[edit]

I respectfully request autopatrol and patrol rights, based on my extensive experience and contributions to Wikipedia. With over 12 months of experience, I've created 60+ articles and improved 100+ others. Granting my request will streamline the New Page Patrol process. I previously requested these rights last month, which was denied. Since then, I've improved my contributions. I believe my dedication and improvement warrant reconsideration. Thank you for considering my request. Royalesignature (talk). 03:08, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for autopatrolled declined in the past 90 days ([1]). MusikBot talk 03:10, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
(Non-administrator comment) I recently raised issues of close paraphrasing in one of your drafts Special:Permalink/1263547974, I am sure if I check more of your creations now, I will find similar issues. Your creations need a second eye and that is what NPP is for. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:18, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

I have made a few articles that seem to be fine, and probably worth a consideration for this permission. Crafterstar (talk) 01:38, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

 Not done Something like Marlo Kelly is the exact opposite of what we want to see from candidates for autopatrolled. Schwede66 01:58, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
@Schwede66: Crafterstar didn't create that. They created a redirect that was later turned into the article by someone else. – Joe (talk) 10:59, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
I shall take another look. Schwede66 12:36, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
Crafterstar, sorry for my sloppy assessment. I'm unsure, though, whether you come to anywhere near 25 articles created, which is a condition for autopatrolled. Do you maintain a list somewhere? What shows up as articles created by you is often a redirect, or something extremely basic like this that was expanded by others before it left draft space. Cast lists do need to be referenced (e.g. The Venery of Samantha Bird) and the prose of The Strangers: Chapter 3 is almost half made up of a long quotation. What I've seen thus far isn't convincing, but I'm happy to take a closer look if you can provide a list of 25 articles created by you. Schwede66 20:43, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

apologies for wasting your time. Crafterstar (talk) 20:54, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

Schwede66, if you are willing to look at the articles created here, from #371 to #383, then


Probably not good enough but just wanted your opinion. Crafterstar (talk) 18:44, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Nominating this editor for Autopatrolled based on a long history of high-quality page creation (80 new articles created in mainspace, with just one deleted a few years ago). Good encyclopedic style, excellent use of sources, images, formatting etc.; also creates talk pages. Dclemens1971 (talk) 13:34, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights

Hi, I am requesting for this rights, because I have about 5 new articles that are yet to be reviewed and surely meets the notability criteria, I have been creating and improving articles especially on African Cinema and with this right, I hope to reduce the backlog on the new page reviewers log.

File mover

[edit]

Hello, I primarily work with files on Wikimedia Commons, where I have file mover and autopatrol rights. The process of file moving on English Wikipedia is almost the same as the practices on Commons. I also have experience working on files on English Wikipedia, including submitting several rename requests. Moreover, I have file mover rights on Bengali Wikipedia, further demonstrating my familiarity with file management across Wikimedia projects. I am familiar with Wikipedia:File names and request this right to enhance my work. Thanks.–𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 05:15, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer

[edit]

I request Pending Changes Reviewer rights to assist in reviewing edits. I have experience with editing and want to help maintain the quality of articles. Gwanki (talk) 00:24, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

Have close to 1,100 edits as of making this request. I enjoy improving articles, I review recent changes daily by this point and am familiar with reverting vandalism (and distinguishing it from good faith edits). Having this right would mean I can instantly decline bad faith pending edits as soon as I see them. I have read and understood the relevant policies and guidelines relating to pending changes, vandalism and copyright. Beachweak (talk) 14:51, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi. Recently, i've been reverting vandalism and disruptive edits on Wikipedia with Twinkle and Ultraviolet, and as an extended-confirmed user, I have over 850 edits. I also revert good faith edits, and if I get this request accepted I will be able to reject vandalism put on pending changes (on pending changes). 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talkcontribs) 22:36, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) Even if you're not pending changes reviewer, you can reject pending changes by reverting them. Pending changes reviewer, on the other hand, gives you the ability to accept changes. Rusty 🐈 14:37, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
I already know that, and the reason why im really requesting this is to accept pending changes and to reject them at the same time. (forgot to put the acceptance part) 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talkcontribs) 03:28, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

I am an active editor with page creation review rights and over 5,000 edits to date. I try to keep my edits neutral and have a history of working with others on some contentious topics. If I make a mistake, I try to fix it and apologise as soon as possible. I have a good grasp of WP policy and MOS, and understand the difference between vandalism, tendentious editing and unconstructive editing. I've also got a very good grasp of copyright law (UK and US) and plagiarism due to my academic and professional background. Lewisguile (talk) 09:08, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

I would like to request the pending changes reviewer right for the following reasons:

1. I am highly active in anti vandalism areas of the enwiki (AIV, RPP, etc, I even contributed to SPI) so I know what vandalism looks like when I see it.

2. I see a lot of constructive edits when I am on the "recent changes" section, that go unnoticed for quite a while. Plasticwonder (talk) 18:06, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done * Pppery * it has begun... 00:33, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

I was previously fairly active in anti-vandalism and am starting to do it again. I'd like to be granted this user right so that I can accept good edits to pending changes pages. Rusty 🐈 14:39, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done * Pppery * it has begun... 00:27, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

I believe this could help me out with the current vandalism fighting I do that may involve pages with pending changes. I have read WP:RCP, and I have a good understanding of Wikipedia's P&Gs. Mon Bhai converseedits Mon Bhai (talk) 16:42, 24 December 2024 (UTC)


Rollback

[edit]

I have been reverting vandalism since I created my account. Although it appears I am a new user, I also have experience editing Wikipedia and reverting vandalism as an IP for many years (which I will not be disclosing due to security concerns). The rollback right will help me revert vandalism faster, which is why I am requesting it. PersonAccount 🐉 (talk) 20:08, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

PersonAccount, to be honest, no, it doesn't appear you are a new user. Which is okay if all previous activity was without having an account and without disruption. It will take longer than for other users until the trust for manually granting permissions is there in your case. It isn't yet, to me. Unless someone else grants rollback in the next week or so, I'll decline this with a recommendation not to ask for permissions until your account is a year old. Regarding rollback in particular, Twinkle and Ultraviolet will do just fine. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:11, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
 Not done ~ ToBeFree (talk) 08:44, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

I would like to request rollback rights to combat vandalism more efficiently. I am an experienced recent changes patroller and I understand that the rollback should be used mainly for clear cases of vandalism. I am committed to using this tool responsibly. Nxcrypto Message 12:07, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello! I've been patrolling Recent Changes for a few months now. Rollback will help my work, especially when I'm out and about and can only access the app. Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 15:28, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

I want to note that I am currently recieving CVU training on this page and am willing to apply again later if it is felt that I am not yet ready for this permission. I would also greatly appreciate any guidence (especially on that page). Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 13:47, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

I would like rollback to help me combat vandalism more effectively. I currently use recent changes and RedWarn. I feel that I have the experience necessary to handle vandalism in a constructive manner. Grumpylawnchair (talk) 04:04, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done ~ ToBeFree (talk) 08:53, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi! Though I started out doing grammar fixes, over the past 2 weeks, I've been using Twinkle and RedWarn to revert any vandalism seen on Special:RecentChanges. It's understandable if you'd like to impose the hard and fast rule of 1-month experience, but I've made almost 300 edits related to vandalism. I always leave a message for the editor and undo my revert in cases where I question my decision in hindsight and would rather have another pair of eyes look at the edit(s).

Having the rollback permission would make RedWarn reverting faster for me and would also allow me to try out other anti-vandalism tools like Huggle. Could I have the right please? randomdude121 (leave a message!) 09:19, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

I view that having this user right would help in fighting vandalism a lot faster. I know I would be far more efficient with fighting vandalism if I were to be granted Rollback. I have been editing for over 7 months, and I have well over 5140 edits, with a focus on mitigating abuse on the wiki. I am a frequent contributor to AIV and RPP. Plasticwonder (talk) 18:11, 22 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done * Pppery * it has begun... 00:31, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

I am requesting rollback rights to revert an edit by another user that merged Baroque Pinto with Friesian Sporthorse, without prior authorization or agreement, on 15 November 2024 - a higher-up editor or administrator previously denied a merge request due to "no consensus" in January 2024 - or allowing other users to discuss or dispute the page merge, as indicated for the procedure on Wikipedia: Merging. I have been trying to recover the Baroque Pinto page that was merged into Friesian Sporthorse without success, and need administrator assistance or intervention in order to revert or roll back the merge. Obversa (talk) 15:54, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

 Not done You don't need rollback to revert one specific edit - see Help:Reverting. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:28, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello I'm a very sincere and careful Wikipedian, I mainly works on the fields of "stop vandalism", "find valuable resources for articles" and create ne articles.

 So, if I'll can access the rollback tool, then I working on YouTube more flowlessly and without any hardness.
                    -Thanking You! Malhar1234 (talk) 09:47, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I don't think you're experienced enough for this yet. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:28, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I would like rollback so I can more efficiently fight obvious vandalism and I will use it responsibly and will always assume good faith. I have over 200 edits, but a few days under a month of reverting experience on recent changes, but please let that slide because it includes around 50 good quality reverts with pretty consistent and accurate warnings on talk pages. I only revert very obvious vandalism currently, and that's what I will do if granted with rollback, so I doubt I would suddenly decide to abuse my power if granted. Thanks for the consideration Fishy-Finns (talk) 18:01, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
