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: Semi-protected indefinitely over a year. Can they be downed to WP:PCPP? Also, one of the users who protected the pages does not seem to be an administrator anymore. Meanwhile, the other appears to have been notified about the matter about a month ago but no response had been taken.154.107.12.95 (talk) 00:45, 1 August 2025 (UTC)

Just because someone isn't an admin anymore doesn't mean they can't have an opionion. @Materialscientist: @MelanieN: What do you think? In many cases I see PCP as increasing the burden on regular editors to review and decline edits that normally would not appear with a normal protection level. ~Anachronist (talk) 08:01, 1 August 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.


In the section about UK support, I understand the photo of Keir Starmer within the image, on the poster, has recently been blurred for copyright reasons, but I think this is quite distracting without context or any explanation. Could someone who has editing privileges there either update the image to one where blurring is unnecessary, or simply add to the end of caption something like "(the image of Keir Starmer on the poster has been blurred as it is copyrighted separately)" 2600:1700:A5E0:11F0:303A:1732:84A3:83EB (talk) 03:20, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

The latter would be redundant with the image description page, where the revision history explicitly notes the blurring. Assuming another image from that protest exists which includes a sign calling him out, replacement would require that image being uploaded under a compatible licence (per WP:NFCC). —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 15:43, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

I think that the supposed co-founder 'Andrew McCollum' should be removed. The initial Business Insider article used to cite the founders of Facebook makes not reference to him, and references to him as the co-founder of Facebook in the media only seem to have happened once he was edited into the article. His own article is also sloppily written which might indicate a very elaborate form of vandalism? The claim in one of the pictures that he was the designer of the original Facebook logo also seems to inaccurate, with the logo being attributed to 'Mike Buzzard' and 'Joe Kral' in other articles.

Autopatrolled

[edit]

Requested this permission ~2 months ago, denied because I was mostly creating auto-notable stubs. I think I have expanded the types of articles I create, including well-sourced local pages or biographical entries where I take time to source subjects that do not inherently meet a generic notability criteria. (I still do create auto-notable pages sometimes, but those no longer make up the majority of pages I create.) As a new page reviewer, I got good experience with the notability guidelines reviewing articles during the backlog drive WP:MAY25, and also participating in AfD. Thought about requesting again as I have run into a few of my own pages while reviewing pages that are in topics I contribute to/am interested in. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:15, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

Also wanted to mention that if I am unsure of a subject's notability, I will utilize WP:AFC for my own articles occasionally Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:18, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for autopatrolled declined in the past 90 days ([2]). MusikBot talk 02:20, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
Came here to request this permission for a different user, but since Yoblyblob is referencing their WP:MAY25 NPP work, it is worth noting that among the re-reviews of each patroller's work, 14/17 of their patrol decisions were approved. Of the remainder, two were drafted/redirected as WP:TOOSOON coverage of 2026 state elections and one was drafted for lacking enough coverage to qualify under WP:NEVENT. Considering they were the fifth most active patroller of the drive, this accuracy is good, not great. ViridianPenguin🐧 (💬) 19:20, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

I have been on Wikipedia for more than a decade, and I truly feel that it is one of my great passions in life. I have more than 30,000 edits, and I am credited with more than 300 articles that are not Redirects or Disambiguation pages. (I personally take credit for more than 100 of these, which did not originate as Redirect pages.) Although I continue to propose Draft pages to this day when I am not 100% confident myself about notability, I frequently go straight to the mainspace and have made a number of articles that have been significant in some form or field, with my particular focus being on film industry and electoral politics pages.

Recently, I redirected a few thousand Supreme Court of the United States cases to the case volumes in which they were listed. It was a large-scale project for me, but in the end it was decided that redlinks would be better for promoting caseload knowledge, something that I agreed to and I believe will continue to service our Wikipedia community. For this reason, it might appear that I have a large number of deleted pages, but this is almost exclusively due to this particular project; I had an edit deletion rate of less than 2%, and I had not had a page that I created taken down in years, not since I was a far more novice editor. (You can read more about that SCOTUS discussion here.)

I believe that being autopatrolled will continue to allow me to contribute to the Wikipedia community, and that is why I am reaching out to ask for permissions. I am happy to answer any questions or improve any articles that I have created if there is anything noticeable that needs help. Although I have long been looking to increase my permissions and role in the community, I quite frankly have always had impostor syndrome stop me from asking, but a bit of encouragement from Liz made me try. Thank you so much! PickleG13 (talk) 20:27, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

I'm not inclined to grant autopatrolled so soon after the SCOTUS redirect deletions, but won't object if another admin wants to grant it. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:51, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
Thank you for your honest feedback, voorts. Although I hope that an admin decides to grant it, I have been on Wikipedia for a long time and I will continue to for a long time to come no matter what. Please let me know if you ever need help with anything, whether it's a full-scale project or a simple clean-up. PickleG13 (talk) 21:47, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
FWIW, I don't think the redirect incident should be held against Pickle. It was an honest BOLD move that they weren't thinking of as article creation. If those lists actually had information in them about the cases, the redirects wouldn't have even been a negative. And I have made similar redirects before after determining the case was not Notable and adding holding information to the list. My view (obviously, given my longstanding project of making articles for SCOTUS cases) is that we should prefer to have articles, but Pickle's redirect idea did not come from a bad place. Plus, their responses to criticism about this incident were always good, even when I just left a message complaining about it on their talk page. lethargilistic (talk) 18:41, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

The sourcing provided here does not appear to meet WP:NORG, which requires "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject". Can you provide sources that establish the notability of this organization? voorts (talk/contributions) 22:22, 1 August 2025 (UTC)
I agree some of the sourcing used is WP:CORPTRIV — the foundation has extensive coverage in Korea. I've just added some stronger pieces. The pre/post interview text in this Forbes feature is one with significant secondary coverage. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 05:24, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

Hey Lanceloth345, could you comment on why Petrit Malaj was deleted a few weeks ago, and what you improved when you recreated it? (Courtesy ping for Sphilbrick, who deleted under CSD G12.) Similarlly with Gjesti, which is currently in draftspace. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 13:08, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
Page Petrit Malaj was recreated again in neutral way + more sources, becouse first version had some words "sounding" not neutral at all, (my fault) as per draft:Gjesti lacking notability it's under review but explained at talk page of draft page reasons why he is notable ect. (also partecipating other editor in discussion). Lanceloth345 (talk) 13:13, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
 Not done User:Lanceloth345. The discussion at the Gjesti draft shows that there is still quite a bit of learning to do around notability. You're still quite a new user, so I'm sure you'll pick up the details of the policy over time! —Femke 🐦 (talk) 14:49, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Been an active user for a few years, created 25+ articles with the only two deletions being mistakenly created redirects (due to a script error). Multiple GAs and FLs. I understand enwiki notability guidelines thoroughly.ULPS (talkcontribs) 22:51, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Support! Low article creation activity in the trailing year, but I'm somewhat familiar with ULPS's work, and would consider him trustworthy enough for autopatrolled. Spot-checks for copyright concerns and sourcing turn up no issues. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:45, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
Hello @ULPS. Where did you cite the DOB for Pat Flynn (musician). No other problems in your most recent creations I could spot. Unrelated, your signature is too light to meet WP:SIGAPP; could you chose a darker colour to get enough contrast. I note that it looks more bold in Chrome than in Firefox. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 17:21, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
Hey @Femke, I think I forgot to cite it. I used an Instagram post of his, which I think is fine under ABOUTSELF, and went and added it now. Apologies, I usually don't forget things like that.

Hello,

I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I have created around 30 well-sourced, policy-compliant articles on the English Wikipedia.

In addition to my contributions here, I am an administrator (sysop) on the Persian Wikipedia (fa.wikipedia), where I have been active for many years, focusing on content creation, vandalism control, and community support.

Granting this right would help reduce the workload of new page patrollers, as my article creations usually meet Wikipedia’s quality standards.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Best regards, Shahnamk (talk) 19:08, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello,

I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I’ve created several articles, many of which are currently live and meet Wikipedia’s guidelines on notability and reliable sourcing.

I’m familiar with the key content policies such as WP:N, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:NPOV, and consistently apply them when creating or editing articles.

I understand that this permission is intended to reduce the workload of new page reviewers by marking trusted users’ pages as reviewed automatically, and I believe my contributions demonstrate the consistency and policy alignment expected for this role.

I have not received any blocks or serious warnings, and I’m committed to continuing constructive, policy-compliant editing.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Sweetabena (talk) 23:39, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Sweetabena: I’ve gone through some of the articles you’ve created, including Daniel Dung Mahama, Simon Akibange Aworigo, Anabah Thomas Winsum, and Nikyema Billa Alamzy. I noticed that these pages have been tagged for AI-generated content (WP:LLM). Could you please clarify this? Additionally, the article on Bright Owusu has a notability issue. Have you made any efforts to address or fix that? I also noticed that most of your articles are about politicians or MPs, which is generally a relatively easier area for a New Page Patroller. Regards! Baqi:) (talk) 12:15, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
Hi @Jannatulbaqi,
Thanks for your response and for reviewing my request.
I've now gone through the articles you mentioned; Daniel Dung Mahama, Simon Akibange Aworigo, Anabah Thomas Winsum, and Nikyema Billa Alamzy and made revisions to ensure they fully reflect a human-authored tone, improve clarity, and adhere to Wikipedia’s content policies. I manually wrote these articles based on reliable sources, and I’ve taken extra care to revise any sections that might have appeared too generic or AI-like in style.
Regarding Bright Owusu, I realized that the subject is better known publicly as “C-Confion,” which is the name used in most reliable sources. I initially created a redirect page under that name, and since C-Confion better reflects WP:COMMONNAME, I’ve submitted a technical move request at WP:RM/TR to move the article accordingly.
While many of my articles are in the political space, I’ve focused on that area because it's typically easier to demonstrate notability. That said, I’m open to expanding into other areas and continuing to improve the range and quality of my contributions.
I appreciate your time and consideration, and I remain committed to constructive, policy-compliant editing. Thank you so much.Sweetabena (talk) 21:05, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

I have been an active contributor to Wikipedia for over two years, and I truly feel that it is one of my greatest passions in life. I have made more than 4,000 edits and am credited with creating over 100 articles, excluding redirects and disambiguation pages. Additionally, I have expanded and improved numerous stub articles, enhancing their content and quality. I have also translated several articles into local languages, making Wikipedia more accessible to a broader audience. By becoming autopatrolled, I believe I can not only continue contributing effectively to the Wikipedia community based on my vast knowledge of WP:N, WP:V, and reliable sourcing but also help ease the burden on administrators in assessing quality content.

I believe I've demonstrated a solid understanding of the policies and guidelines with my articles, particularly with my coverage of various aspects of the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom. Thank you! GregariousMadness (talk to me!) 17:14, 3 August 2025 (UTC)


Page mover

[edit]

Mainly requesting so I can bold move pages to multi-revision redirects, but I may cautiously move into closing RMs one day. I think I have decent experience from participating at WP:RMC and understand the guidelines reasonably well. Thanks, Kowal2701 (talk) 10:58, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Some recent examples where I had to start an RM where I would have bold moved are Talk:Caliphate of Hamdullahi#Requested move 15 July 2025 and Talk:Amina, Queen of Zazzau#Requested move 24 July 2025 (ongoing) Kowal2701 (talk) 11:09, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
Technically, if you would normally have bold moved a page (uncontroversial, do not expect opposition) but couldn't for technical reasons, WP:RM/TR would be the better way to do it since it avoids the 7 day listing period of a full RM. This is not a comment on the actual merits of granting or not granting though, which I'll leave to the patrolling admins. Alpha3031 (tc) 19:02, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
If people don’t think I need the tool or that the benefit doesn’t outweigh the potential costs just say and I’ll retract this Kowal2701 (talk) 22:37, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
Please be patient, you only asked a few days ago and perm requests are rarely handled same-day. Primefac (talk) 23:12, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
Mb, I just saw one answered below and assumed it wasn’t a no-brainer Kowal2701 (talk) 08:31, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
Apologies for wasting people’s time, I’ll retract this and follow Alpha3031’s advice re WP:RM/TR which I’d forgotten about Kowal2701 (talk) 10:24, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
 Not done, but please note that I have not evaluated the request and am simply tagging this way because of OP's desire to retract it. -- asilvering (talk) 19:50, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

Hi, I recently began helping in clearing out requested moves at RMC. Usually, most of the requests would require me request at the technical request section as page already exist at moves desired location. With this right, I would be able to avoid this and move the pages directly. I have read the page mover page as well. Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 09:13, 1 August 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your help in closing moves. However, the recent number of RMNAC that have been performed where you've had to revert upon request recently, is concerning. While it is appreciated that you have been quick and willing to revert your closure, I think you need some more experience here with making the correct closure the first time. TiggerJay(talk) 07:50, 3 August 2025 (UTC)
 Not done sorry Cactus, I agree with the above. -- asilvering (talk) 19:49, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

I attempt whenever possible to correct article titles to sentence case when necessary, but am frequently unable to do so because of the existence of a single-edit redirect. I've been advised at "Requested moves" just to ask for the pagemover right already after 75,000 edits in nearly 11 years.

A perfect current example: Sweet and Sour Pork, which I can't move to Sweet and sour pork without requesting the move and making someone else do my work for me.

Thanks for your consideration! Julietdeltalima (talk) 23:52, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Note that Sweet and Sour Pork and Sweet and sour pork was actually unfortunately not a great example to make a case for page mover permissions - on review, you’ll find that there is a a long history at the latter as it was merged to Sweet and sour in 2013, as well as a whole mess as the former was (re-)created as a move from Gu Lao Rou, which in turn was only created in 2024 as a manual fork of Sweet and sour.
So what we have here is now a pretty mess of “admin required” for histmerge as well as a few “{{copied from}}” on the relevant talk pages and review of the page edit histories to make sure attributions are placed as needed. I’ll copy this over to RM/TR, since I can’t action on the admin required histmerge review. (Edit): posted at RMTR. Raladic (talk) 07:33, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

Mass message sender

[edit]

Just proposed a large WikiProject merge here, and intend to propose more in the future of similar scale. I would rather prefer avoiding the trouble of sending individual notifications (in this case to 55 WikiProject talk pages) and don't want to be a bother constantly spamming the talk page with requests. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 22:50, 31 July 2025 (UTC)


Pending changes reviewer

[edit]

I am a (relatively) long time contributor to Wikipedia, primarily active in content creation. However, following a recent and rather vexing experience involving a user introducing potentially harmful changes to articles en masse without any sort of satisfactory communication with other editors, I have decided I want to become active in dealing with vandalism as well. ✠ Saltymagnolia ✠ 15:36, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

@Saltymagnolia, pending changes reviewer is for approving edits on articles with pending changes protection -- it does not affect your ability to revert vandalism. I'm happy to grant the permission, but I just want to double check you're clear on what this will let you do? Thanks, Giraffer (talk) 20:15, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
@Giraffer as I understand, it applies to pages with a certain level of protection, where edits by newer or anonymous users require manual approval, e.g. on the article for Margaret Sanger. Thanks. ✦ Saltymagnolia ✦ 20:46, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
Cool.  Done Giraffer (talk) 21:10, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

I have been editing for over a year and one of the pages that I recently requested protection is now at PC protection. I also have some experience with reverting vandalism, some via Special:RecentChanges. JuniperChill (talk) 20:38, 2 August 2025 (UTC)


Rollback

[edit]

Hello, I'd like to get rollback rights to fight vandalism more effectively. While I don't patrol recent pages often, I do patrol new pages and short pages, where I frequently undo obvious vandalism (as seen in [3]). I'd like rollback to more easily undo edits, as well as access huggle and other tools. Yelps ᘛ⁠⁐̤⁠ᕐ⁠ᐷ critique me 08:24, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I want to receive a rollback right because there are a lot of editors who add informations but not citing sources. Usually, they do not add unsourced informations at once, but they add them by multiple times. There are also edits violating MoS or Wikipedia policies. And I have struggled with reverting all of them one by one, so I decided to request a right for rollback. Thank you. Camilasdandelions (talk!) 03:56, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([4]). MusikBot talk 04:00, 27 July 2025 (UTC)
Oops, my notification didn't notice that reply. I'm sorry for it. Camilasdandelions (talk!) 09:55, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I am requesting Rollback rights to help stop vandalism. I have made more than 2000 edits on Wikipedia since 2021. I understand how rollback works and will use it only when needed.

Thank you Panda 🐼 Arun (Talk) 07:10, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

I am a budding copyeditor with a growing number of watched pages to police for vandalism. Unfortunately, some vandals use multiple revisions, making it tedious and time-consuming to fix without a rollback permission. Thank you for your considerations. OceanLoop (talk) 13:19, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

Template editor

[edit]

I would like to make a comparatively minor change to Template:TERYT as requested by Altenmann on the template's talk page. However, even though I created this template, it has had its protection level set. Kiwipete (talk) 04:04, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

It looks like that has gone unprocessed primarily because it was dequeued from having an active edit request. If this is one-off issue, I think the best solution would be to just put {{edit protected|answered=no}} back on the page, and a patrolling template editor should process it. (the backlog at Category:Wikipedia template-protected edit requests isn't usually very long). — xaosflux Talk 13:19, 30 July 2025 (UTC)
 Not done per the above (noting the TPER has been fulfilled). If this template needs future editing by you, Kiwipete, I believe it would be reasonable to simply drop its protection. Primefac (talk) 01:14, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

Howdy. I'm an active participant over at WP:DYK, and recently ran in WP:AELECT but did not pass the threshold. Discussion centered around lack of experience on WP:AIV, an area I expressed interest in getting involved in. A decent part of my running for adminship was wanting to help with processing WP:DYK queues, which are template-protected. In my election discussion there were no concerns raised about my professionalism, content creation or reviewing competency, which are the primary things needed with processing DYK queues. I do not meet some of the standard template editor guidelines (e.g. sandbox/significant template edits, etc), but I also do not plan on using the role outside of DYK queue processing. Thanks for your consideration. ~Darth StabroTalk • Contribs 16:46, 1 August 2025 (UTC)

Are there any active DYKers that you are working with often that could leave support here? — xaosflux Talk 19:14, 1 August 2025 (UTC)
