  • Tosin Salako (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. Has declared that they are not Tosin Salako but are representing him professionally. They must change their user name. The only way to ensure this is a warning shot. 🇵🇸‍🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦‍🇵🇸 21:04, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
    The account is representing an artist by that name. We allow real names, but in this case it's their employer's/client's real name rather than their own. What do others think? Secretlondon (talk) 22:43, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
    Well, WP:REALNAME states Do not edit under a name that is likely to imply that you are (or are related to) a specific, identifiable person, unless it is your real name. Think that's pretty clear. For example, what if Salako splits from this person. Who controls the account? — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:51, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
    On top of that, WP:REALNAME states: "If a username implies that the user is, or is related to, a notable, identifiable or well-known person, the account may be blocked as a precaution against impersonation until the user's proof of identity is provided." Anyone can claim to be a representative of a well-known person, so such a claim would also require proof to satisfy this portion of the policy. I'm holding off from immediately blocking due to the discussion initiated at User talk:Tosin Salako § Immediate action required, but the account should be blocked if its username is not changed to a policy-compliant one in a reasonable amount of time. — Newslinger talk 21:35, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
    Should be blocked if they are not the named person(even if they are a representative). 331dot (talk) 09:10, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
    They've not edited since 3 June. Secretlondon (talk) 13:53, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
  • SkibidiOhio5 (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Disruptive username. Username sounds similar to the usernames of the so-called "Skibidi vandal", a long-term vandal with multiple accounts that had usernames like this and would vandalize pages by replacing them with the phrase "Goofy ahh brainrot:skull:" among other things. RaschenTechner (talk) 15:24, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
  • RummerTavern (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Draft:The Rummer Tavern – role account. Aydoh8[what have I done now?] 21:26, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi‑protection (1 month) – persistent IP vandalism since the high‑profile events of 27 May 2025 (pardon) and 4 Jun 2025 (TV‑series announcement). — Dahawk04 (talk) 23:42, 5 June 2025 (UTC)

Examples
  • Unsourced claim about pardon terms
  • Defamatory statement repeatedly re‑added after reversion
  • Blanking of the cited sentencing section

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Favonian (talk) 17:44, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. Skitash (talk) 00:54, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Full protection: Content dispute/edit warring. Skitash (talk) 00:54, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Declined seems to have stopped. Ymblanter (talk) 21:38, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Infinite extended confirmed protection Arbitration enforcement, it about the Arab-Israeli conflict. ArtopiaBoy (talk) 02:10, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Vandalism. Long semiprotection needed. Island92 (talk) 04:36, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – The edit warring here continues. Perhaps implement a higher level of restriction for a month as her album is released today. Karst (talk) 08:49, 6 June 2025 (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 08:58, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: The article has experienced persistent disruptive editing due to the politically sensitive nature of Akre District, which is disputed between the Iraqi Federal Government and the Kurdistan Regional Government. There have been repeated attempts to add unsourced or biased content, leading to edit warring and potential violations of Wikipedia’s neutrality policy. Semi-protection is requested to prevent further vandalism and ensure the article’s integrity. 78.101.242.98 (talk) 11:50, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Furthermore, the OP is evading a block by editing through a (now globally blocked) proxy. Favonian (talk) 17:39, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent vandalism of the page related to indigenous culture and content. Repeated disruptive editing, especially from anonymous users. Requesting semi-protection or extended confirmed protection to maintain page integrity. Titi7000 (talk) 12:42, 6 June 2025 (UTC) [1]. [2]

Reason: Per WP:RUSUKR: Only extended-confirmed editors may make edits related to the topic area. Many edits are in violation of this policy, so it appears that protection is necessary. Yours truly, Stuffinwriting | talk | sign | contributions 04:49, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The page has been consistently vandalized by IP users, adding and removing things back and forth (might be the same person) for a long time now, as can be seen throughout the history. Jovanmilic97 (talk) 15:43, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

The article should be semi-protected due to vandalism, particularly targeting the article about American Airlines Flight 77, which was involved in the September 11th attacks.

Temporary extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – Years' worth of additions of completely unsourced material (or additions of retired equipment, beyond the article's WP:SCOPE).

Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – I checked some of the other XXX articles to see if there was similar vandalism there, and I saw vandalism here that hadn't even been reverted yet.

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.

Unprotection: 10 years of protection with little vandalism or disruption. Thepharoah17 (talk) 03:25, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Unprotection: 16 years of protection with little vandalism or disruption. Thepharoah17 (talk) 05:52, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent vandalism. Migfab008 (talk) 08:39, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Unprotection: 12 years with little vandalism or disruption. Thepharoah17 (talk) 09:25, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Currently salted, holds up the acceptance of Draft:Medusa Film. Kovcszaln6 (talk) 13:44, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Unprotection: No longer necessary: This article has been semi-protected since 2010 due to BLP violations, and is still protected despite Curran having died in 2013. The protecting administrator was last active about 6 months ago. BriDash9000 (talk) 13:45, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Unprotection: This article has been semi-protected since 2010, and I think it's time to test whether long-term protection is still needed. The article has seen only 20 edits from 2020 to 2025, and just 1,177 views in the past year (see here), so I'm not expecting this to be the target of a lot of disruption. I already asked the protecting administrator; someone else told me to make an unprotection request here. BriDash9000 (talk) 16:20, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Unprotection: This article, for some reason, has been semi-protected since 2010 due to apparent edit warring. It's probably time to unprotect it after 15 years have past, given the fact that all the other 'Mitsu' articles seen in this disambiguation page are not protected, and this article only seeing 4 edits since the protection and 1,634 views in the past year (see here). The protecting administrator has been banned since 2019. BriDash9000 (talk) 17:00, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Unprotection: This article has been semi-protected since 2007. I doubt this very low-profile article will be the target of a lot of disruption after nearly 18 years have past, having seen only 9 edits from 2020 to 2025 and a whopping 941 views in the past year (see here). The protecting administrator hasn't been active since 2012. This also doesn't fall under WP:CT/A-I, despite the context subject. BriDash9000 (talk) 17:20, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

Reason: The protection of this article about the Italian ex-footballer isn’t needed anymore - almost 15 years with little vandalism. Frankster04 (talk) 20:45, 7 June 2025 (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]

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)
Added refs for Cencio. I’ll be more careful about sourcing info in lists. ~ IvanScrooge98 (talk) 20:57, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

The user has created an impressive total of 834 articles so far, with only five deletions. Given this strong track record, I believe they fully deserve autopatrolled rights. Thank you. Baqi:) (talk) 20:11, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

I am requesting the autopatrolled user right. I have created 96 articles so far, out of which only 2 have been deleted. Most of my articles are well-sourced biographies, mainly related to the Pakistan Army, with some focused on media personalities. I strive to follow Wikipedia’s notability and sourcing guidelines in all my contributions. Granting me autopatrolled status will help reduce the workload for new page reviewers. You may also consider taking suggestions from the reviewers (JTtheOG, John B123) who frequently review my pages, as they are familiar with the quality and consistency of my work. Behappyyar (talk) 11:02, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

 Not done. I have concerns about LLM use, including elsewhere on the project such as this AfD. -- asilvering (talk) 04:19, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

I have been creating pages for a year, and this would assist me when I create more AdaWoolf (talk) 00:52, 3 June 2025 (UTC)

As a reviewer at NPP I frequently accept book articles by this user. They've created 62 mainspace articles with 0 deletions. Their articles are easy accepts (clearly indicate how the book passes WP:NBOOK and do not need any error-fixing); may as well take them out of the backlog. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 02:49, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

 Done asilvering (talk) 03:59, 7 June 2025 (UTC)


Confirmed

[edit]

Reason for requesting confirmed rights

My account has been up for 4 days, made over 10 edits, and did not get autoconfirmed, something wrong? SovietAddict68 (talk) 02:58, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

 Already done (automated response): This user already has the "autoconfirmed" user right. MusikBot talk 04:10, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
Your account wasn't at the 4 day mark at the time you posted; you were short by about an hour. As you can see, you're now autoconfirmed. stwalkerster (talk) 10:37, 6 June 2025 (UTC)

File mover

[edit]

I’d like to request file mover rights to help fix unclear or poorly named files in line with naming guidelines. I'm familiar with tagging files for renaming and understand the relevant policies. Being able to handle simple, non-controversial moves myself would speed up the process. I’ll use the tool responsibly and continue contributing to file maintenance. Thanks. Jesus isGreat7 ☾⋆ | Ping Me 16:10, 5 June 2025 (UTC)

 Not done You've been attempting to hat collect too much recently and only got involved in file renaming requests today, which isn't really enough experience for this permission. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:28, 6 June 2025 (UTC)
There are no outstanding requests for the page mover flag.

Mass message sender

[edit]

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

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. Wikipedia's primary means of communication is through posts on article talk pages, Wikipedia talk pages, or various noticeboards, including the Village Pump. [...] To reach the members of a given WikiProject, a post on that project's talk page can be used.

– SilverLocust (Jenson) 04:55, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
I was thinking a few hundred of the most active editors, not 13,000! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 07:03, 3 June 2025 (UTC)


Pending changes reviewer

[edit]

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)
@JamesEMonroe: On the default skin (Vector 2022) your Einstein gif blocks the "talk" button, the left molecule gif blocks the entire left sidebar, and the gifs on the right side block much of the right sidebar plus the "ClutterClear" button. That disrupts the interface by "preventing important links or controls from being easily seen or used". I would also urge you to fix that. – SilverLocust (Jenson) 06:28, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
Good call. I removed it.
I didn't want to block the user talk page especially JamesEMonroe (talk) 06:43, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
I guess it makes it hard when its fine on my screen but possibly different on others. let me see with the other things. sorry about that ^^ JamesEMonroe (talk) 06:48, 3 June 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. — ArćRèvtalk 10:38, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

I've made 200+ edits and created over 40 mainspace articles. I'm familiar with core content policies and would like to help review pending edits. Thank you! Wieditor25 (talk) 22:14, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

A few pages which I watch were tagged for pending changes protection, and I would like to assist in reviewing the changes to share the workload. Danners430 (talk) 05:14, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

Most of my editing is in recent changes patrolling, and I understand the policies regarding vandalism, BLP, NPOV, copyright, etc. and apply them appropriately. Weirdguyz (talk) 06:55, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

I'm requesting pending changes reviewer as a current often-active extended-confirmed recent changes patroller who wants to combat vandalism on pending changes-protected pages. I have read the guideline on reviewing and understand the policies on BLP, copyright, etc. Thanks! MouseCursor or a keyboard? 13:35, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello; I wish to request pending changes reviewer rights.

By now, I have been editing Wikipedia for a month, more or less. I have extended-confirmed permissions on Wikipedia. I have done some work in cleaning up new pages and recent changes and I am ready to start taking on a larger task of reviewing pending changes. Element10101 T ~ C 20:56, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

Please, I've been actively contributing to Wikipedia and have a good understanding of its policies and guidelines. I'm interested in becoming a Pending Changes Reviewer to help ensure the quality and accuracy of Wikipedia's content. I've demonstrated my ability to review and improve articles, and I'm committed to using my Pending Changes Reviewer tools responsibly. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to contribute to Wikipedia's quality control efforts 2RDD (talk) 22:05, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

Hi there, I have been creating articles for the Nigerian Portal on Wikipedia for over five months now. I'd like to have this role to expand my editing jurisdiction. Thanks Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 00:26, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Re-requesting the Pending Changes granted by Mz7 to my comprised old account. Ɔþʱʏɾɪʊs 09:56, 3 June 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.

I think I'm supposed to have this as I see an option suddenly for pending changes on my watchlist, for the article Remote sensing? I was going to approve (it's just a newer user adding some book references), but I guess I cannot? -- Very Polite Person (talk) 21:02, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment)@Very Polite Person Are you getting an option to accept it or it's written '[pending review]'? Ɔþʱʏɾɪʊs 08:59, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
It was I think just the text with no link/option to accept, and now it says "Checked". -- Very Polite Person (talk) 15:35, 7 June 2025 (UTC)

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)

Review previous requests for more of a reason why I should get it (if needed). ExplorerofSpace (talk) 00:30, 5 June 2025 (UTC)

Hi! I do a lot of Recent Changes patrol for anti-vandalism purposes, and I'd like to be able to approve the good edits to protected pages I come across (instead of just reverting things...)

Thanks for your consideration. penguinencounter2@enwiki:~/talk/contrib$ 20:56, 5 June 2025 (UTC)


Rollback

[edit]

I'm 2RDD, I've been actively contributing to Wikipedia for a year and have a good understanding of its policies and guidelines. I'm interested in becoming a rollbacker to help maintain the quality and integrity of Wikipedia's content. I've demonstrated my ability to resolve conflicts and address vandalism in a constructive manner. I'm committed to using my rollbacker tools responsibly and in accordance with Wikipedia's policies. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to contribute to Wikipedia's maintenance and upkeep. Thank you 2RDD (talk) 21:53, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm dropping a request here aswell. Please do consider me request for the Rollback Permission. Thanks. Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place 00:46, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment)Hi, Cameremote! I see that you only have 5 undos in total. Are sure that you have read the criteria for rollback carefully? It's only granted to users who have some experience in dealing with vandalism. If you want to withdraw this request, you can type {{withdrawn}} in the wikitext mode. Cheers! Ɔþʱʏɾɪʊs 10:21, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Hello there, I am requesting rollback permission. With my contributions, I am particular with BLP articles. I know what unconstructive edits are. I read the guidelines, and I am also aware of what the difference is between good faith and disruptive. I do, but I'm not very good at patrolling recent changes due to my devices' capabilities, but I want to contribute to decreasing vandalism in Wikipedia to the best that I can. I have read the guidelines for rollback permission, and I guarantee you that I will have the responsibility of having this permission. Thank you. - ArćRèvtalk 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.

When looking at my request, please review prior requests for further reasoning. ExplorerofSpace (talk) 12:55, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

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!
