George Town, Penang

Reason: Semi-protection: Indonesia-based IPs resumed disruptive edits after semi-protection (which was requested for this same issue) was lifted. hundenvonPG (talk) 04:54, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

User(s) blocked. User partially blocked by Callanecc so I have lifted the protection I previously placed. @HundenvonPenang: If they resume from a different IP range, please feel free to file a new protection request.

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.

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

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.

User:Royalesignature

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)

(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)
 Not done, per the above comment. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:41, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

User:B.Korlah

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.

Best regards, B.Korlah (talk) 06:36, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

 Not done A few of your recent articles have unencyclopedic/subtly promotional sentences. For example, in Seven Doors (2024 series) you write Netflix top leaders also expressed excitement at the project and how much it portrays the Nigerian culture, Netflix further reiterated her commitment to showcasing African stories and culture at large. This kind of information is generally considered promotional fluff and shouldn't be included in the article since it does not say anything substantive. (also cc @Ibjaja055 who reviewed the article)
This is the kind of mistakes NPP is designed to catch and correct and I think you will benefit from somebody taking a second look at your articles. Sohom (talk) 04:18, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
oh wow. Okay then, thank you for the feedback. B.Korlah (talk) 08:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

User:CommunityNotesContributor

To support WP:JAN25 I'd ideally like to be contributing to reducing the backlog as opposed to contributing to increasing the backlog at the same time. Overall in the last 25+ BLP articles I've created, there have been few to no edits made by NPR, aside from typos, grammar, and duplicate words. The first handful lacked certain templates, categories, default sorting, talk page banners, and the usual technical parts of articles, but I've since got to grips with including these. Since then I've only moved my drafts to mainspace, or created in mainspace, when I'm confident that there is enough SIGCOV and structure, and otherwise "incubate" articles not quite ready in draft space if not. I otherwise create quite a few redirects, with one disambiguated, and one batch up for discussion, but otherwise none deleted so far. Thanks for considering. CNC (talk) 12:40, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights

Hi, I would like to request this right because I have met the criteria for 25 articles that are free of problems. I would like to use it for my interest in WikiProject Korea. You can see all of articles i've created here! :) Aidillia(talk) 07:08, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) In Buried Hearts, there's a bit of mess with the history, seeing that it was first deleted but later recreated and then expanded, this time, with copyright violations which remained not until GreenLipstickLesbian fixed and requested a revision deletion today. Checking through some other creations revealed some issues like grammar errors. Things like these are what the NPP is for, and English Wikipedia is not ready to keep copyvios on the site, not ever.
It also appears to be that Labor Attorney Noh Moo-jin had copyvio issues, which GLL fixed too. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:04, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
Well, I don't know if translating from a website is forbidden, because a few months ago, there was someone who reverted my edit because of no reliable sources for the description I wrote myself. So after that, what was included in the sources I used. Many people I see do that. And now I know I'm trying to remove it as much as possible and do some fixing.

Requests for extended confirmation

Extended confirmed

Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.

User:Boutboul

Reason for Request: I am requesting reinstatement of Extended Confirmed Rights after their removal by User:ScottishFinnishRadish for concerns related to "gaming EC through adding a machine translation of Fondation Maeght and Rueil-Malmaison in many small edits without attribution." He asked me to "make at least a few hundred edits" to regain it. Since the removal, I have added attribution to the concerned articles. I have made over 300 referenced contributions, focusing on adding reliable sources to improve verifiability, expanding content in alignment with Wikipedia’s standards, and enhancing article quality. I believe my recent contributions demonstrate constructive and policy-compliant editing.

Examples of Recent Contributions: Water metering, Smart meter, and Gas meter, which are in my area of expertise. My recent edits also contributed significantly to upgrading the article History of the Jews in Tunisia from "Start-Class" to "B-Class." Michael Boutboul (talk) 12:28, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for extended confirmed declined in the past 90 days ([3]) and has had this permission revoked in the past 180 days ([4]). — MusikBot talk 12:30, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
Boutboul, are you using AI (such as ChatGPT or similar tools) to write your talk page messages and permission requests? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 09:03, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
Hi @ToBeFree,
I use ChatGPT from time to time to translate sentences or correct English syntax, as English is not my mother tongue. I also used an LLM to translate French Wikicode into English Wikicode; it’s much faster than doing it manually.
Have you had the opportunity to check some of my edits? They are far from perfect, but I really try to follow Wikipedia standards (Verifiability, No Original Research, Follow Style Guidelines, etc.). I’m genuinely puzzled—I don’t understand why they are not considered valuable enough to regain my extended confirmed rights. I’ve been a Wikipedia member since 2006, with more than 900 edits in English and over 1,500 edits in total.
Thanks for your time and interest. Michael Boutboul (talk) 10:08, 24 December 2024 (UTC)
From their last post to their talk, @Boutboul seems interested in CT areas. I have concerns about the EC request given other issues raised on their Talk. Courtesy ping @ScottishFinnishRadish who removed initially. Star Mississippi 17:39, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
They're also continuing to translate from French Wikipedia without proper attribution, e.g. here. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:51, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
I properly attributed the translation by adding the template to the main page. However, a bot moved it to the talk page. I even explained this in a discussion topic on the talk page. Translation is not prohibited; in fact, it is encouraged by Wikipedia. Michael Boutboul (talk) 20:27, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
(b) Place the {{Translated page}} template on the target article's talk page, for example: emphasis mine. Nor did you attribute it in the edit summary as required: Add a statement to the edit summary of the target article of your translation providing translation attribution to the authors of the source article, including an interlanguage link to the source (translated-from) article. Example: This continued misunderstanding plus the LLM usage does not inspire confidence that they're ready to have E/C restored. They're welcome to edit in other areas but I explicitly do not think they're ready for CTs. Star Mississippi 20:46, 27 December 2024 (UTC)
Firstly, I am not sure why you are using the plural for me. I am the only one making all the edits, and my pronoun is 'he'.
Secondly, I have attributed the text to a French translation in several edit summaries, for example, here and here. I may have forgotten some instances. However, if I am not mistaken, there is no rule stating that an editor must make no mistakes when editing to regain Extended Confirmed Rights. Furthermore, the quality of the translation is sufficient, as other editors appreciated it and upgraded the article from Start-Class to B-Class.
In addition, using an LLM for translation, syntax correction, or any other purpose is not forbidden.
It therefore seems that the decision not to reassign the Extended Confirmed rights is arbitrary. Michael Boutboul (talk) 10:24, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
Using third-person gender-neutral pronouns is pretty common and normal online. I have a question for you Michael out of interest. If you acquire the EC privilege, will you use it to advocate on behalf of any of the parties to the Arab-Israeli conflict, thus violating WP:NOTADVOCATE and the part of the Wikimedia Universal Code of Conduct that prohibits "Systematically manipulating content to favour specific interpretations of facts or points of view"? The reason I ask is that using extended confirmed privileges that way is puzzlingly common in the WP:PIA topic area, and I wondered whether you have considered these constraints. Sean.hoyland (talk) 10:36, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
@Sean.hoyland, Thank you for your constructive message. I believe that we all interact, on all sorts of topics, with our biases; we all have biases. I also believe that the beauty of Wikipedia lies in collectively building reliable content, based on discussions grounded in valid sources, despite everyone's individual biases. This is the mindset in which I wish to use my Extended Confirmed Rights. Michael Boutboul (talk) 11:38, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
Is there something preventing you from simply stating that you will not (consciously anyway) advocate on behalf of any of the parties to the Arab-Israeli conflict? Is it an unrealistic expectation given the nature of the topic area? That is what I would have done by the way, provided assurance that I'm not a potential disruption vector in a contentious topic area. And then try to make a case for restoration of EC rights on that basis. Of course, if you did that, you would probably the first editor in Wikipedia's history to do so. Feel free to ignore my questions by the way. I'm just interested in things that might help to depolarize the topic area, like explicit commitments to not advocate on behalf of parties to the conflict (although I'm aware that the adversarial nature of the topic area might, under certain circumstances, help to increase the quality of content). Sean.hoyland (talk) 11:26, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
Like any contributor on Wikipedia, I respect the platform's core principles, rules, and best practices to the best of my knowledge. Specifically, I strive to avoid advocating for any side and ensure that both my contributions and those of others align with the principle of neutrality of point of view (NPOV).
Since you raise the topic, I believe the best way to depolarize a contentious area is to acknowledge that every party involved inherently has its own biases.
Anyway, your concern is far from that of ScottishFinnishRadish. Michael Boutboul (talk) 18:30, 29 December 2024 (UTC)
@Star Mississippi, have you reviewed my edits? Could you please clearly explain your concerns? No one has provided a clear explanation for refusing to reassess my extended confirmed rights. Additionally, @ScottishFinnishRadish made an incorrect statement regarding proper attribution for translations. Michael Boutboul (talk) 20:40, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Could you perhaps elaborate on what other maintainance work (e.g. backlog drives) you've done in the past? – Joe (talk) 10:50, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. This was previously declined as your recent article creations do not suggest that you have sufficient knowledge of notability guidelines for this permission. I also have concerns about your command of English, and other editors have noted issues with promotional editing. That was two years ago, but the concerns expressed on your talk page since then don't suggest that much has changed, in my view.

I’ve been actively contributing and working diligently to improve the quality of pages. With a significant number of edits under my belt and extensive experience gained over time, I believe I am well-qualified to be granted new page patroller permissions. I’m eager to help tackle the growing backlog and ensure that new pages meet the required standards. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to take on this responsibility permanently. Ensconce (talk) 00:36, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for being willing to help out, Ensconce, but given that NPR is a fairly sensitive right we generally need to see significant prior experience in new article-related work, i.e. deletion, AfC, and/or article writing, before granting to be sure that you have sufficient knowledge of the relevant policies. Unfortunately as far as I can tell you don't really have this. I'd strongly encourage you to consider giving WP:AFC (which also has a dire backlog) and WP:AFD a go first, after which you could make a new request.

I would like to help out with the NPP backlog drive. I believe I fit all the minimum guidelines; I have a good knowledge of Wikipedia's guidelines and policies and sufficient experience with quality control processes, as I engage with the deletion process, especially PROD and CSD, whenever possible and I help out WikiProjects by writing new articles.

User:BoyTheKingCanDance

I would very much like to remain a New Page Patroller, please, and to have the three-month period extended indefinitely. I greatly enjoy this aspect of being a Wikipedia editor, and believe that I have made a very positive contribution. In the three months since my NPP rights were last discussed, I have marked as reviewed several hundred pages, some of which I had to edit quite a bit to get them into appropriate shape and others which were created so well that they were really good without me having to do much or anything. I have of course reflected a lot on how best to go about this important task, and to minimize my errors and weak judgements. I am far more cautious than before, and consequently I have actually marked as reviewed far fewer pages per week than I did before. Indeed, when patrolling new pages, I often edit pages for hours each day without marking any at all as reviewed. I am demanding a higher standard in my own mind than hitherto. This does not mean that I have not made mistakes over the last few months. I am human and have made errors. I do not believe there have been many, however, and I consider my efforts to be reliable and trustworthy, but I am disappointed in myself for making any mistakes at all. The key here is that I try hard always to learn from them and not to repeat them. I am neither proud nor disputatious, and I try to treat all fellow editors with respect and pleasantness if they highlight any issue, and I do try to absorb and begin using any and all guidance that I receive. I respectfully ask my fellow editors to see that any errors over the last three months have been very few, and that by percentage of the pages I have edited or marked as reviewed, the errors are a tiny percent, thus establishing me as dependable and trustworthy. I have gratefully received several barnstars for my patrolling throughout this period. I repeat that I regret getting anything wrong at all and aim for zero errors. I am committed to this standard.

I mentioned that during this time, I'd personally watch BTKCD's reviews myself. I am proud to say that he has improved especially based on the feedback he received back then. He used tags appropriately, responded to talk page messages, etc. These are things I'd personally love to see in NPPers. I am supporting the permanence of his NPP right.

User:Vrxces

Managing the NPP backlog is something I've been doing for some time in terms of monitoring video game pages as part of WP:VG. I've been pretty extensively involved in managing drafts, particularly flagging and identifying drafts that do not meet WP:GNG or other reasons, and taking WP:DRAFTIFY, WP:PROD or WP:AFD actions for recently created articles that do not meet WP:GNG. I think the track record with WP:AFD is pretty solid even if it leans to deletionism a little. I've just realised I could be doing something more constructive and marking reviewed pages as well. Believe there was a one-month trial run I did in 2024. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 11:46, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Excuse me! But I can't understand, what you want to say in last sentance, -"You are closer to getting a WP:CIR block than getting advanced permissions".
If you don't mind can you explain me about that. Malhar1234 (talk) 12:40, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
@Malhar1234 Looking at your talk page, you have received a warning for large language model usage (which is explicitly discouraged), and looking at your latest article Tripura Queen Pineapple, you still haven't stopped using large language models. That coupled with the fact that you appear to be hat collecting (repeatedly asking for advanced permissions with actually understanding/caring to check if you are qualified + you actually need them) makes me feel like you are not listening to feedback and/or are not caring enough to play by our rules, which (imo) makes you teetering close to a WP:CIR block. (also cc @ToadetteEdit who appears to be your mentor on the Growth extension who might be able to give you pointers on how to course-correct). Sohom (talk) 17:23, 31 December 2024 (UTC)
I just got pinged. @Malhar1234, you should really stop requesting permissions and focus on writing content manually and not with the use of a LLM such as ChatGPT. Will be willing to guide you to become a better editor. Otherwise, by not listening or understanding my advises and advices (and warnings) from others, you will most likely be blocked for competency issues. Take it slow, and start learning by heeding to the warnings/advices, or otherwise you will face consequences. ToadetteEdit (2025 is here) 17:32, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi. I've been editing wikipedia semi-actively when real life allows for almost 3 years and recently surpassed 1000 edits. I have fully read and understood everything linked at WP:PCCRITERIA.

Hi NXcrypto, please undo Special:Diff/1265567139 and respond to Worldbruce's concern. It doesn't look like the worst kind of edit warring I've ever seen, but Worldbruce was concerned about it without being involved in the reverting, so you should probably take a moment to address their concerns instead of throwing them away. The edit summary of Special:Diff/1265564114 indicates that their primary concern is you not (yet?) using the article's talk page.

I previously asked for rollback rights back in November but was turned down with the reason given was I need more experience first. I'm here two months later to once again ask for rollback rights as it would make what I do a lot easier.

So I am once again asking for rollback rights as I took the previous advice on board. Lemonademan22 (talk) 6:31, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

User:Patrick_Welsh

I edit mostly in academic philosophy and closely adjacent areas. Twinkle is adequate for the vandalism that I encounter in articles on my watchlist. I read Wikipedia more broadly, however, and might be more active in assisting with general anti-vandalism efforts with the help of tools such as Huggle that make this easier to do, but which require rollback privileges to use (this would be the case especially if any of them make it easier to do in a responsible way on a tablet, rather than at the desktop I use for regular editing). I've been bitten as a newbie, and am alert lest I do this to anyone else. Wikipedia's coverage of the humanities is, to put it generously, uneven. On the few occasions I've encountered someone new with obvious subject-matter expertise who is making problematic, but good-faith edits, I have made a deliberate effort to welcome them, offer information, and protect them from more aggressive defenders of guidelines and policies (who might turn them off Wikipedia before they even have a chance to learn the basics, which are in some ways quite at odds with academic norms). This is just to say that I will, of course, use manual reverts with edit descriptions and talk pages, rather than rollback or anything requiring it, except in cases of blatant vandalism or persistent abuse by editors who disregard clear and polite notices of issues with their edits.
