Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level

Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

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.


Reason: High level of IP vandalism. -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 23:35, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

User(s) blocked. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 00:32, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The last protection this article received expired on March 20. As you can see if you check the revision history, disruption and vandalism from a catalog of IPs immediately resumed and continued to the present. TheWikiToby (talk) 00:25, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Reverts seems to have happened a couple of times over the course of this month. Daniel Case (talk) 01:46, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Reason: High level of IP vandalization. It'll make sense when you search up "Sussy" on Google. I Drink Water n Cats (talk) 00:28, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 00:29, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
how the heck did you reply that fast I Drink Water n Cats (talk) 00:35, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Reason: User keeps editing the introduction to say that Noory is a conservative. Their source is a personal blog. Very unreliable. NotTonyHinchcliffe (talk) 01:43, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected for a period of one year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Will also log at CTOPS under WP:CT/AP. Daniel Case (talk) 01:51, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

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.

Reason: The aren’t really anymore sockpuppets nor sockpuppeteers to vandalize this page. Minecraft6532 (talk) 23:14, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

How do you know? -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 00:12, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
That's because it's protected –TheWikiToby (talk) 00:49, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Reason: That page is almost never touched. The editors seemed to have learned their lesson. 71.14.243.235 (talk) 03:38, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

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.

Requests for autopatrolled

Autopatrolled

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)

 Not done. I've checked a couple of articles. The articles are all nicely formatted, have at least one citation per paragraph.
However, when I started spot checks in Design 1099 Ship, I noted a high rate of mistakes in terms of WP:INTEGRITY. I've tagged with citation needed / failed verification. I think it would be good for you to go back over articles and really make sure your citations fully support all the preceding text in the paragraph. You may want to nominate for WP:GA afterwards to see if you've really succeeded here (in all other aspects, the articles I checked seem to meet the criteria). —Femke 🐦 (talk) 18:41, 25 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 have created 25 new pages and would like to request the autopatrolled right. I have been a user since 2007, but have increased my writing on Wikipedia in the last 3 years.

I have been contributing to Wikipedia since 2012 and have created about 220 articles. Only three of those (that I recall) have ever had to be revised before they were accepted. Though many of my articles have not been rated particularly high on the assessment scale, I think that I am experienced & familiar enough with Wikipedia's policies that articles I create need not clog up the new pages feed.

Okay, the user's talk page history is back. This can now be evaluated normally. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 08:12, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

I have been an editor since 2020, but only really started ramping up my edits in February of this year. I have made 254+ pages (at least 4 of them are from redirects), 103 of which have been in the last 3 days. Another user (Ryan shell) suggested that I should apply. The only major issue that my articles have had in the past was me using AI, which I have acknowledged was wrong and promised not to do it again to an administrator, who worked with me on how to properly find info for articles without using AI. Most of my articles are stubs, and I feel like they can clog up the New Pages Feed a bit.

At the start of this year, I received an automated message inviting me to join New pages patrol, which I noticed again today, so here I am. I have written several new pages lately, and have nominated articles for deletion in the past, so I am aware of the procedures of AfD, PROD, and CSD. I also have experience with similar topics from my time as admin on the Dutch Wikipedia. I try to be friendly, in particular towards new users. Finally, I might not know every guideline and will probably make mistakes, but I'm always open to feedback and will try to improve. Thanks for considering this request.

I previously received patroller rights in November of last year ([2]) to help diminish the backlog that existed then, and has grown/still exists now. Much of the same I said last time still stands, while I have little experience in AfD (some with PROD and CSD), I have spent a lot of time at RfD and with RMs, and I do have some limited experience with page creation. I also am very familiar with WP:COPYVIO and other general content policies and guidelines. estar8806 (talk) 21:15, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

Requests for page mover

Page mover


From time to time, I make the occasional page move, these are pretty much always uncontroversial moves. After seeing a move of mine from 6 months ago reviewed just today, I have decided, in the interest of reducing the backlog of editors who have to review my pages, to ask for this permission. Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC) Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

  • I don't see a lot of experience here, and I am not sure whether the request is indicating something related to the autopatrolled right, but for the time being I will just give a bit of feedback on a case I noticed. In May you moved Ricardo Cobo to Ricardo Cobo (Musician) in order to create a one-sentence stub on a different Ricardo Cobo. The disambiguator in this case should be in lowercase. More significantly, it appears that this was moved without any consideration of whether the mayor was the primary topic of the search term "Ricardo Cobo". The mayor's article gets fewer views than those of the musician, and when the stub was created, no hatnote link to the former occupant of that title was provided. Links were not fixed either, so for example, Guitar Foundation of America now links incorrectly to the mayor instead of the musician. Why did you decide to make way for the article on the mayor here? Did you consider making a disambiguation page? Dekimasuよ! 02:38, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
    To be honest, the upper case typo was a WP:MOS mistake on my part, I take full responsibility. As to whether it should have been a primary or secondary redirect. I felt that, per criterion 2, the mayor of a major city (pop 1 million +) usually has long term significance. I didn't feel there was a need for a disambiguation page with just two entries. As for the links, to be honest, at the time I just assumed Wikipedia fixed those during a move (you can WP:TROUT me for that one). Allan Nonymous (talk) 11:33, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
    Usually replacement of one article with an article on an unrelated topic without any intermediate step is not advisable precisely because it breaks things internally. Instead of a trout, can you help fix the links and lack of hatnote? Dekimasuよ! 21:44, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
  • (non-admin comment) The group (really a list) that makes an editor's redirects automatically reviewed is the redirect autopatrol list (rather than page mover). However, the guideline is that users normally aren't nominated for that list until they have created 100 redirects.

I want to help with the renaming of various LGBTQ child pages as a result follow-up to the main article LGBTQ now being LGBTQ as a result of the concluded Talk:LGBTQ#Requested move 14 August 2024 discussion that I initiated. Most of the child pages all have existing redirects that need to be page swapped and many are not just 1-iteration, so need to WP:ROUNDROBIN swapped, for which Page Mover permissions are required. I am aware of the policies around page moving and will respect the permissions as such. Raladic (talk) 16:43, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

General moves. Recently I've wanted to move some voting theory articles (e.g. participation criterion) to rephrase them in terms of their associated paradoxes (e.g. the no show paradox). I've typically found this makes them more intuitive to most people. – Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 00:17, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
Requests for pending changes reviewer

Pending changes reviewer

I have been monitoring recent changes on pages for a while now AlexBobCharles (talk) 08:36, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello@AlexBobCharles. Most of your history looks good. Could you explain why you warned rather than explained after [3] this edit? Seems like a good faith error? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 10:18, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
Hello . I withdraw my request because i do not plan to be very active on WP. I warned them because they seemed to be the same IP who made the same change a few hours before and got reverted and they didn't make any response to my edit summary AlexBobCharles (talk) 07:03, 19 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)

Hello @MSouvik01. You don't seem to warn people consistently after reverting them. It's easy to do with WP:Twinkle. Could you commit to doing this? I also noticed that you rarely leave WP:edit summaries. It's good practice to let others know what your edit did! —Femke 🐦 (talk) 10:34, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
 Not done for now. Feel free to re-apply once you've addressed Femke's concerns and (assuming there are no other major issues) the answer is likely to be positive. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:10, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done for no other reason than your application doesn't address the concerns from two months ago and gives the impression that you view the requirements as a mechanical tickbox exercise. We're much more concerned with a holistic evaluation of your understanding of policy. Feel free to submit another application that addresses the previous concerns and demonstrates your understanding of relevant policies.

I am always looking for new ways to contribute to Wikipedia, and I have an extensive understanding of vandalism (I have rollback privileges, and have been fighting vandalism through almost all of my time here). I also have the Page Reviewer rights. OnlyNanotalk 16:13, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Requests for rollback

Rollback

I've been around for a couple years now, and believe rollback would significantly assist me in patrolling. I believe I pass all requirements and have sufficient experience with patrolling and dealing with vandalism. NeoJade Talk/Contribs 20:44, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting rollback rights Hello, I would like to obtain rollback rights to fight against vandalism, spam and any other non-constructive modifications, I know very well how to differentiate between a beginner user who simply makes a mistake, and a person who makes bad modifications voluntarily. Also I know how to use the Twinkle tool to leave warnings of cancellation of modifications on the discussion page of the users concerned. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 21:15, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done sorry, but you have only had an account for about a week. That is far too soon to apply for permissions. Please get some more experience first. Elli (talk | contribs) 02:26, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Hello @Elli. I understand that we don't give roles like that, on the other hand I don't really understand what seniority has to do with it, any sane person knows the difference between pure vandalism and a bad, unintentional modification, it's quite easy to spot what needs to be put back or not. See my posts on Noni Madueke, S-segment and on the discussions of the vandals concerned. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 09:53, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Challenging this denial will not result in Elli changing his mind, it reaffirms that you are not ready. You are a very, very new editor and permissions are given as a sign of trust that they won't be misused. You haven't been active long enough for this trust to exist. Come back after a few months of solid editing. Liz Read! Talk! 02:27, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

I actively patrol Recent Changes reverting vandalism and incorrect good faith edits using Twinkle. For every revert, I leave a notice to inform the editors why their edit is reverted. I would like to use a more advanced tool to make this easier. Ednabrenze (talk) 09:32, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

Requests for template editor

Template editor

I believe that I'm a responsible editor with a lot of experience, and that I would make for a great template editor, especially in my areas of interest such as Eurovision, Geography and VexillologyIмSтevan talk 13:32, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

Standard Guidelines review:
  1. Green tickY (guideline: >1 year, applicant: 2.5)
  2. Green tickY (guideline: >1000 edits, applicant: ~3500)

 Not done, fails multiple criteria. Primefac (talk) 12:54, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
I would like to point out that regarding guideline 4, I was reverting (what I percieved as) vandalism on an article, that my block was only applied to that singular page, with overwhelming support for the reverts, and that I chose not to dispute it since it was only a 48h block. As for the 5th, I simply don't tend to edit templates using sandboxes, but by pushing edits directly. It really seems like a redundant requirement since not everybody's editing style is the same. No comments on the 6th — IмSтevan talk 22:51, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
5 naturally leads into 6, because most TPE will request that a proposed edit be made to the sandbox before the change is implemented. If it is a trivial/"simple" change it is generally not counted towards 6 because sandboxing is unnecessary, and thus there is no demonstration of technical ability. Another thing that 5 and 6 demonstrate is that there is actually a need for this perm, not just "I think I might find this useful", because template screwups are probably the most widely-visible mistake one can make. In other words, the objective requirements get you a review, the subjective requirements determine whether your request is granted. If you do find yourself frequently seeing the need and making changes to protected templates, feel free to request again in the future. Primefac (talk) 10:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
Fair, thank you — IмSтevan talk 10:45, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
