Not a violation of the username policy. Real names are permitted except when they imply that the editor is a specific living person they are not. The editor appears to be trying to add their resume.

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement. ―Howard • 🌽33 14:50, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- This is not a PIA article, and I do not see any recent disruption. I would decline. Ymblanter (talk) 21:31, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Vandalism by unknown IP addresses MNWiki845 (talk) 08:28, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Daniel Case (talk) 01:24, 15 June 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Repeated addition of false/unsourced information. Instead of protecting this page for a week or a month, I suggest maybe use WP:ECP as its protection level to prevent editors from repeatedly changing the correct release date of this album (1989) to the-turned-out-to-be false year (1988).

Declined – Warn the user appropriately then report them to AIV or ANI if they continue. Given their past in this specific area, though, the next time they do it should be a block. They've gotten enough rope and have demonstrated they just don't care. Daniel Case (talk) 01:59, 15 June 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]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: The article about this UK zoologist has been semi-protected for 11 years, with little vandalism. Frankster04 (talk) 16:48, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

- Pinging @Robertsky: I admit more than two months is rather long for a full protection, but ... how are we to tell if "the dispute died down" when no one's been able to edit the article for that time, and there's nothing on the talk page to suggest that it has (in fact that talk page hasn't been used this year at all)?

Reason: This page was protected back in 2015 by JohnCD. It is an internet meme about Demi Lovato (see Know Your Meme) that has had remarkable staying power. There is currently a draft at User:Thegoofhere/Poot Lovato that I'm inclined to accept. gobonobo + c 02:49, 15 June 2025 (UTC)
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.

Been around for 10 years. A new page reviewer (see here) encouraged me to request the autopatrolled rights over my page and redirect creation record. ~ IvanScrooge98 (talk) 22:42, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
- Some of your given name and surname pages lack citations for the origins/meanings of the names. For example, the first sentence of Cencio has substantive information that requires a reference. voorts (talk/contributions) 18:59, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

Not done Everything about your account looks great, however, Autopatrolled ultimately exists to protect WP:BLPs more than anything else so experience with BLPs is part of the demonstration needed to surmount criterion one.

- My editing approach has always been encyclopedic with attention to NPOV, notability, reliability of sources used. Recently, I created an article for the upcoming general elections in Nigeria and intend on creating for the presidential, national assembly, state assembly and governorship elections. My new focus is on creating articles for Nigerian towns and villages not already captured on en.Wiki, and also those of national assembly constituencies. SuperSwift (talk) 08:01, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

This user has created 46 articles, 39 of which have been since 2021. While he creates only about one or two articles per month on average, virtually all of his recent creations have been well-sourced, policy-compliant articles (WP:N, WP:V) that need minimal modifications (see for example, Elmira Water Filtration Plant last month and 207 East 32nd Street this week). None of his articles have ever been deleted. It is my assessment that granting him autopatrolled rights would reduce the workload on patrollers, since I haven't spotted any issues with his work, other than minor grammatical quibbles.

Although my account is only about 2 months old, I have tried to follow Wikipedia’s content and sourcing policies closely.

- @Victor Ningthemcha (Non-administrator comment) Sorry, but you don't meet the criteria yet for this right. This comment by @Haoreima, my interpretation, says that you need to at least be extended confirmed (300+ edits and 3 months after registration) and also gain long editing experience, along with its other rules. Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 10:02, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
- Alright. but, how will I gain long editing experience? By making an article longer? Also, I sadly did not read "the gain long editing experience, along with its other rules" because I was hurriedly making another article. Victor Ningthemcha (talk) 10:55, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
Not done. Thanks for your contributions. Like cactus says, you'd need quite a bit more experience for being granted autopatrolled. Think 1000 edits and at least 25 articles. I expect that articles don't get draftified anymore: they need to be clearly ready for main space. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 10:09, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

I am running contests like Wikipedia:The World Destubathon. It is a big attempt to eliminate thousands of stubs for every country and topic and want to invite a lot of project members personally with a message. User:DreamRimmer and User:Polygnotus have been very helpful, but it would greatly help me if I was given formal mass message rights as I will likely be running more contests in the future and need the easiest outlet to contact relevant projects and participants who would potentially be interested without having to spend ages doing it manually! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 06:51, 31 May 2025 (UTC)
- @Dr. Blofeld: If you mean inviting members of a lot of WikiProjects, as I gather from your talk page, then I think this would go against the guidance that
– SilverLocust (Jenson) 04:55, 3 June 2025 (UTC)Mass messages should only be sent to groups of users who are likely to want their attention drawn to the message [...] For other cases, less personalized means of communication are preferred.

[...] To reach the members of a given WikiProject, a post on that project's talk page can be used.

Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights:
To expand my tool belt as an extended confirmed recent changes patroller, and to more quickly afford new users their non policy breaking contribution. I have currently no sanctions against me and I think I understand wiki policy well enough for it. Thank you JamesEMonroe (talk) 20:02, 22 May 2025 (UTC) (Post edit) When using this perm, I will take extra care. I think I have met requirements in WP:PCCRITERIA and have reviewed Wikipedia policy. Also please consider older reverts as well or when I took the time to explain things to new users. JamesEMonroe (talk) 21:27, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
Hi JamesEMonroe! I am not formally granting this permission (nor am I denying it), but I do think you should cut back a bit on the WP:STICKYDECO stuff on your userpage. While I have added the applicable CSS class to make the gadget function, many newbies—who frequently will have complaints when you revert their edits—will be unaware of the ability to tick the box to disable them, and they can be highly annoying/distracting/problematic for editors with sensory issues.
I wouldn't object if another admin chooses to grant the permission, but I wouldn't personally feel comfortable assigning newbie-interaction-heavy advanced permissions with the current amount of sticky decorations. Best regards, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 02:55, 29 May 2025 (UTC)- Ah, Thank you! As you saw, I tried to add the collapsible boxes as a way for people to disable them (like the "clutter clear ->") as collapsing it would disable the code within. I was planning on making some changes actually, such as rearranging things and improving accessibility a bit, while always importantly keeping the talk page free from anything as it is. I hope it didn't appear unprofessional on me or too annoying.
- But I see what you mean as some newer people might not see the boxes. and ill see what I could do. JamesEMonroe (talk) 04:15, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

I want to have this permission to reduce the pending changes backlog. I reviewed all the guidelines, such as BLP and the guideline for referencing. I revert good faiths and obvious vandalism and warn the user right after. Although I cannot perform a rollback to the recent changes page to have a consecutive track record due to my device's limited capabilities. I would rather choose pending changes over rollback; with rollback, I must have track records of mass rollback vandalism. But since I understood the guideline of rollback and pending changes, I can assure you that I will be responsible for having this permission. — ArćRèv • talk 10:38, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi there!
Despite my account having existed since 2009, I only have a modest edit count - and so it is more than reasonable for one to question whether I am a sufficiently experienced Wikipedian to be granted additional privileges.
I am requesting Pending changes reviewer as I believe I have demonstrated a good faith effort to contribute to the project, civility when interacting with other users, and adequate judgement when attempting to discern between deliberate vandalism or well-intentioned mistakes. But more than anything, I seek to find relevant policies and / or guidelines when confronted with a new (to me) situation - and while I endeavour to be WP:BOLD, I am aware of my own limitations and thus I know when to stop and ask others for guidance before proceeding.
If granted Pending changes reviewer I cannot promise I would be a prolific reviewer of pending changes; merely that when reviewing pending changes I would ensure I am doing it because I am confident in my ability to get that decision right, rather than out of boredom or a desire / sense of obligation to make the decision myself.
Thank you very much for your time & consideration.

A little bit ago I made a request (which was declined - account new), I am again requesting this right because:
-My account is now over a month old
-My account is extended confirmed
-Lately, I have run across a lot of fine pending changes edits, but I can not approve them only revert them
As you can see, the main thing I do on Wikipedia is revert vandalism, you noted I should be a little more careful in doing so, which is what I did.
I think this right would allow me to reduce backlog, and do something I like (reverting vandalism) in a different way.
As you can see, I am also requesting the rollback right, which would help me with this process as while as reverting vandalism in general.
Whatever the outcome is, thank you. If it is not done, please provide me with steps I can take to get approved. ExplorerofSpace (talk) 00:29, 5 June 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I tend to do a fair amount of RC Patrolling and therefore fairly regularly encounter edits requiring pending changes approval. I figured that since I'm reading and reviewing these edits anyway to assess for vandalism/need for reversion, it would probably be more efficient if I could also approve the good edits rather than a second pair of eyes needing to come by to do that. I've done a lot of RC Patrol over a long time, with a bit of article improvement work as I go along, so I'm quite familiar with the core policies relevant to reviewing, and I know where to find them if I happen to not remember one off-hand. I also do remember what starting out editing Wikipedia felt like and the excitement of an edit on a big page getting a speedy approval, and I'd like to do the same for the newcomers.

I have read the guidelines for rollback permission, and I guarantee you that I will have the responsibility of having this permission. Thank you. - ArćRèv • talk 11:34, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello! I am requesting rollback rights to aid in reverting vandalism. I am mostly requesting the permission to use tools like Huggle and AntiVandal. I have read through the relevant policies and belive I meet the requirements for rollbacker. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to ask me. Best wishes, Macaw*! 16:58, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

I'm requesting rollback to use tools such as Antivandal & M:SWViewer. My previous request was pretty messed up. This userright will be very helpful to me in reverting Vandalism. Thanks! Ɔþʱʏɾɪʊs⚔ 09:57, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

I am back again. A little bit ago, I requested this right, and it was denied because it was not old enough.[1] My account is now one month old and I have extended confirmed permissions.[2] I was wondering if that is enough to get me this permission, thanks.

Hello! As I started to edit in Wikipedia (music), I have seen a lot of vadalisms (or bad edits) from some articles. But if one user spoiled it by multiple times, I have to rollback one by one, which takes a lot of time. So I request this permisson to make rollback for vadal easier, thanks!

Rollback would allow me to more effectively revert bad edits found on patrol. I'm familiar with policy and have been using UltraViolet's pseudo-rollback to assist with reverts, always making sure to leave a descriptive edit summary and a relevant message on a user's talk when appropriate. Unfortunately I've encountered intermittent issues with uv's pseudo-rollback where it'll fail to apply or take a long time to complete. I believe being able to access rollback proper would resolve this. Additionally, I'd like to try some of the more bespoke patrolling tools like AntiVandal or Huggle, both of which require the rollback permission. fifteen thousand two hundred twenty four (talk) 00:19, 10 June 2025 (UTC)

I've been using Twinkle for counter-vandalism for a bit over a year now with little issue, but I've consistently heard that Rollback is faster and more effective. Taffer😊💬(she/they) 22:38, 11 June 2025 (UTC)

I was graciously referred here by Myrealnamm. My primary focus on Wikipedia is anti-vandalism work, so rollback would naturally be useful for me. I have read WP:ROLLBACK and feel like I have a good grasp on detecting good/bad faith edits. (I'd certainly hope so, if I got this far.) Thanks for your consideration. ⫷doozy (talk▮contribs)⫸ 05:07, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Rollback appears useful for various reverts in specific instances when a serious vandal has made a rapid-fire succession of edits which need to be reverted. I enjoy using RedWarn, but rollback itself is handy here also for the AntiVandal tool I see. I have made around 70,000 edits and feel I qualify as a good candidate for this permission.

- Comment: AntiVandal looks really interesting, but you can also request to be on their whitelist from what I read. So you do not actually need to get the Rollback permission if all you want is to use Antivandal. Iljhgtn (talk) 13:45, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

I am requesting rollback rights to help combat vandalism and unconstructive edits more efficiently. I have over 5,500 edits, including work in areas related to South African history, politics, and culture. I'm interested in perfection and quality.

I have over 500 mainspace edits without vanishing the articles. I am not the vanished user. I will not be blocked if I’m not vanishing the pages. In late 2023, I did revert a few articles that were vanished by the IPs. So, I will grant my Rollback right soon. Thomasfan1916 (talk) 04:31, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I would like to request rollback rights to support my anti-vandalism work.
I have been actively patrolling recent changes and reviewing edits for potential vandalism, often using filters and tools like ORES. I’ve been reverting obvious vandalism manually and warning users where appropriate.
I’m interested in increasing my efficiency with tools like Huggle and STiki, which require rollback rights. I understand the responsibilities of the rollback tool and will use it only for clear-cut vandalism or disruptive edits, not content disputes.
Thank you for considering my request. Dahawk04 (talk) 17:40, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

I will request my rollbacker rights, so I can use AntiVandal tool. I've most frequently used Twinkle on my Gadgets since I'm autoconfirmed. After they reverted my edits for not following WP:MOS guideline, as well as vandalism. Absolutiva (talk) 21:33, 14 June 2025 (UTC)

Recently I've been finding myself making quite a few edit requests to template-protected pages – I believe I have the technical knowledge to complete these changes myself (with consensus or uncontroversial changes, obviously) so therefore I'd like to request template editor permissions DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 10:46, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

- Thanks for applying. Most of your edits to the template namespace are DYK-related, which are not really templates (despite being in the wrong namespace). But hopefully there are enough edits to real templates to assess this request — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:14, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks so much for taking the time to review my request! Incidentally, I have previously started discussions on changing the DYK namespaces to not be templates (although for a lack of enthusiasm, that never went ahead!) – I should note also that I do have 3 pending template-protected edit requests DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 17:36, 12 June 2025 (UTC)
- I have run it through the TPE criteria. For #3 it all depends on what are regarded as template edits. The criterion just says pages in the template or module namespace, so technically this should count. For #6, we are not quite there which suggests this request may be slightly premature. Perhaps you could continue working by submitting requests when needed and then pop back here later? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 19:18, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
- Yeah, absolutely. Though I would maybe count myself as having done 2 of the 5 successful major requests as the /row is template-protected seperatly to the main template – although that still only makes it two and there's no reason to lower that in this instance. I'll continue submitting requests and resubmit this if/when they are approved
- Thanks for your time! DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 19:55, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
Not done per MSGJ. Also, my unscientific count of template edits excluding DYK nominations gives around 100 template edits, which is too few. * Pppery * it has begun... 21:43, 13 June 2025 (UTC)

I would like to apply for Template Editor rights to be able to create and improve infobox templates for subjects like chiefdoms, royal institutions, and culturally significant topics that currently lack proper templates. I am very active in creating new pages and adding infoboxes to articles, and I’m fully aware of the risks and responsibilities involved in editing template code. I intend to use these rights to support underrepresented content areas with utmost care and ensure consistency across related pages. ZS Khumalo (talk) 20:38, 13 June 2025 (UTC)
