Wikipedia:Requests for permissions

Requests for permissions

This page enables administrators to handle requests for permissions on the English Wikipedia. Administrators are able to modify account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, file mover, extended confirmed, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback, and template editor rights, and AutoWikiBrowser access.

Editors wishing to request a permission flag here should do so following the procedure below. Editors requesting permissions are advised to periodically revisit the requests page, as notifications will not always be given after a decision is made. Editors should not expect their request to be answered right away and should remember to be patient when filing a request. To find out what permissions your account has, go to Special:Preferences, where your permissions are listed in the user profile tab under "Member of groups".

Requests for permissions are archived regularly; please see Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Archive for an index of past requests.

This version of the page may not reflect the most current changes.
Please purge this page to view the most recent changes.

Permissions

Handled here

Account creator (add request · view requests): The account creator flag is granted to users who are active in the request an account process. The flag removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24 hour period. It also allows users to make accounts with names similar to other accounts. The account creator flag is only given to users who participate in the ACC process and may be removed without notice should a user's participation in the account creation process cease.
Autopatrolled (add request · view requests): The autopatrolled flag is granted to users who are active in the creation of new articles. This tool is granted so their creations are auto patrolled in Special:NewPages. Unlike other requests, any user may nominate an editor for Autopatrolled, even without that user's consent. A user who wishes to have this flag generally should have created at least 25 articles and must be trusted, experienced, and must have demonstrated they are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, especially WP:BLP and Wikipedia:Notability.
AutoWikiBrowser (add request · view requests): AutoWikiBrowser is a semi-automated MediaWiki editor for Microsoft Windows, designed to make tedious repetitive tasks quicker and easier. It is essentially a browser that automatically opens up a new page when the last is saved. When set to do so, it suggests some changes (typically formatting) that are generally meant to be incidental to the main change. Please read the rules of use and registration requirements on the main page before requesting permission. This is not a true user right, but access needs to be granted by administrators just like other permissions. If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. Users with under 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits are rarely approved. You will need to give a reason for wanting AWB access.
Confirmed (add request · view requests): The confirmed flag may be granted to new users who have not yet hit the threshold for autoconfirmed status. These are users who have not had both 10 edits and 4 days experience. People with this flag can upload files and edit semi-protected pages before hitting the autoconfirmed flag. Users requesting this flag must indicate clearly why they should be exempted from the customary confirmation period.
Event coordinator (add request · view requests): The event coordinator user right allows editors to create multiple new accounts, and to temporarily confirm accounts so that they can create new articles.
Extended confirmed (add request · view requests): The extended confirmed flag is normally automatically added to accounts after 500 edits and 30 days, but may be added to legitimate alternate accounts of users that already have this access. The flag allows users to edit pages under extended confirmed protection.
File mover (add request · view requests): The file mover user right is intended to allow users experienced in working with files to rename them, subject to policy, with the ease that autoconfirmed users already enjoy when renaming Wikipedia articles.
Mass message sender (add request · view requests): Mass message sender enables users to send messages to multiple users at once. This flag is given to users who have made requests for delivery in the past, clearly showing an understanding of the guidance for use.
New page reviewer (add request · view requests): The new page reviewer user right allows users to mark pages as patrolled and use the page curation toolbar. At administrators' discretion, the right may be accorded on a time limited basis or indefinite.
Page mover (add request · view requests): The page mover user right allows users experienced in working with article names to move them, subject to policy, without leaving behind a redirect. They may also move all subpages when moving the parent page(s). General guidelines include making 3,000 edits and 6 months of editing history. At administrators' discretion, the right may be accorded on a time limited basis or indefinite.
Pending changes reviewer (add request · view requests): The reviewer flag is granted to users who are experienced enough with Wikipedia editing and its policies for contributing to the process of reviewing articles placed under pending changes.
Rollback (add request · view requests): Rollback enables users to remove vandalism much more quickly and efficiently than by undoing it. Users who do not demonstrate an understanding of what constitutes capable vandalism fighting, either because they have no or little history of doing so, or show a poor ability to discern between good and bad faith edits will not be granted this right. Also, it is unlikely that editors with under 200 mainspace edits will have their request granted. For a more detailed explanation of rollback and information about when it is appropriate to use the tool, see Wikipedia:Rollback. For information about the technical details of the feature, see here.
Template editor (add request · view requests): The template editor flag allows users to edit protected templates and Lua modules. General guidelines for granting include making at least 1,000 edits overall (with at least 150 to templates or modules), being a registered user for over a year, and having a record of successfully proposing significant edits to several protected templates. Users should demonstrate proficiency with template syntax and an understanding of the need for caution when editing heavily-used templates.
Temporary account IP viewer (add request · view requests): Temporary accounts are coming to the English Wikipedia in October 2025. To prepare for this, non-admins may request access to view temporary account data.

Handled elsewhere

Several permissions are requested and handled elsewhere:

Administrator and bureaucrat access: Requests for administrator or bureaucrat access need to be posted at requests for adminship and requests for bureaucratship, respectively.
Bots: Request for bot flags should be made at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval.
Edit filter: Requests for access to the edit filter manager group and the edit filter helper group should be made at Wikipedia:Edit filter noticeboard.
Interface administrator: Requests for interface administrator access should be made at Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard. Only current administrators may become interface administrators.
IP-block-exempt: While the IP-block-exempt right can be granted by administrators, this flag is not handled here. Requests for the IP-block exempt right should be submitted via email to the checkuser team at checkuser-en-wpwikipedia.org or contact a CheckUser directly.
CheckUser and Oversight: These rights are only granted by the Arbitration Committee, and only after strict scrutiny. More information can be found here.
AfC reviewer: This access is granted by administrators at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation/Participants.
Redirect autopatrol list: Addition to the list is granted by administrators at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect autopatrol list.
Steward permissions can only be granted in yearly elections, and are rarely given.
Election clerk has no process for requesting it; admins can grant it sua sponte to themselves or other admins.
Global permissions such as global renamer, sysop, IP block exempt, rollback, etc. should be made at meta:Steward requests/Global permissions.

Review and removal of permissions

The requests for permissions process is not used to review or remove user rights:

If you wish to have any of your permissions removed, contact an administrator
To request a review of another editor's use of a permission, use administrative action review
If you believe someone's actions merit removal of a permission, raise your concern at the administrator's noticeboard

The bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight permissions are removed at meta:Steward requests/Permissions. Stewards will typically not carry out such requests unless they are made on behalf of the Arbitration Committee, by a user who is requesting their own access be removed, or in cases of an emergency.

Process

Requestors

To make a request for a permission, click "add request" next to the appropriate header and fill in the reason for wanting permission.

Administrators

Administrators are permitted to grant account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, event coordinator, file mover, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback and template editor flags to any user who meets the criteria explained above and can be trusted not to abuse the tool(s). Administrators may either grant these permissions permanently or temporarily. For convenience, a bot will automatically comment with relevant data if the user does not meet configurable qualifications. Even if the bot does not comment, administrators should review the user's contributions and logs to ensure the tools will be used appropriately and check for any indication of potential misuse.

Once an administrator has granted a permission or decided to deny a request, they should add {{done}} or {{not done}} respectively under the request with their comments. If a user already has the requested permission, or is autoconfirmed and requesting confirmed, {{already done}} should be used. N hours after the last comment was made (as specified by the config), the request will be archived automatically: approved requests will be placed here; declined requests will go here. See User:MusikBot/PermClerk#Archiving for more information on archiving functionality.

Other editors

Requests for permissions is primarily intended for editors requesting a permission for their own account. Other editors are welcome to comment if they have specific information that is relevant to that request that a patrolling administrator is unlikely to discover for themselves. Otherwise, since only administrators can effectively respond to these requests, general comments or 'clerking' by other users are rarely helpful. Non-administrators cannot "decline" to grant a request, because they're not in a position to accept it.

A limited exception to this is Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled, where third party nominations are encouraged. Other editors should still avoid offering general remarks on requests and leave the final decision to an administrator.

Permission was revoked at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&logid=169754554 . The permission was revoked four months ago before I recently returned after 14 years of absence from the project, please reinstate. Sswonk (talk) 15:03, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Automated comment This user has had this permission revoked in the past 180 days ([1]). — MusikBot ^talk 15:10, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This RfC recently established that autopatrolled can be procedurally revoked from inactive contributors, but I don't think there was consensus that it could be procedurally reinstated upon request, so I would encourage the reviewing administrator (I'm not one) to consider this like any other request. @Sswonk: I had a couple of questions about the articles you recently created: what makes this website (on Loretta Lynn: Coal Miner's Daughter) and this website (on Honky Tonk Girl: My Life in Lyrics) reliable sources? Also, since IMDb is an unreliable source, is there another citation that could be used for the award on that first article? —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 16:10, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I forgot to say: welcome back to the project! I realized my comments above could come across as trying to shoot you down after your wikibreak, but I did mean it as genuine questions/feedback. :) —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 16:20, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks TS69, I did not realize that you had posted here before I went to your talk, I am copy-pasting that here so we can continue the conversation in one place. Below is re: Jeff Burger, will respond on other questions momentarily.

I added a second citation to the first paragraph of Loretta Lynn: Coal Miner's Daughter. I think the first citation is fine, yes it is a self-published source by Jeff Burger however Burger is well-known (https://www.chicagoreviewpress.com/burger--jeff-contributor-301827.php) and the site serves as an archive of his previously published reviews. The page I cite is a reprint of a review first published in 1976, the publication is not specified, however the information about Burger suggests it satisfies "Self-published sources may be considered reliable when produced by an established subject-matter expert, whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable, independent publications." See also https://search.worldcat.org/search?q=au=%22Burger%2C%20Jeff%22 -- Burger should be considered reliable. Sswonk (talk) 16:34, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the second question about Chapter 16, please see https://chapter16.org/about-us/ and https://www.humanitiestennessee.org/about/our-story/?cn-reloaded=1 publisher of the cited, archived website. I would also consider that as satisfying WP:V.

I did not realize IMDb was unreliable, I used that because it is the single source of the page 38th Golden Globe Awards. I added the actual Golden Globes as a source. Sswonk (talk) 17:01, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for making those changes — your point about Burger makes sense to me, so I'll remove the {{sps?}} tag, and citing the Golden Globes' website for that award looks appropriate. I'm less sure about the reliability of Chapter 16, but I think I'll leave this for an administrator to weigh whether or not that would be a significant blocker to granting the permission. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 17:24, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate that, thank you. Sswonk (talk) 18:20, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The question remaining from TechnoSquirrel69 asks for administrator input on the reliability of the Chapter 16 web outlet of the Tennessee Humanities organization. Links are provided a couple of paragraphs above. I am noting here that this morning I changed the previously existing citation link on the Honky Tonk Girl: My Life in Lyrics page to a direct link rather than to the archived page, as I was able to find the current url for the review. The link TechnoSquirrel69 includes above in his initial post has been updated to a current page. So we are dealing with the WP:RS status of a current page on a site that supports a 51-year old Tennessee institution funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. I think Chapter 16 is entirely reliable and should be used on Wikipedia articles related to Tennessee culture and history as needed. However, I want to thank TechnoSquirrel69 for diligence in finding areas for improvement in these stubs. Like him, I strive for the best references available and had determined the Chapter 16 and Jeff Burger sites were satisfactory prior to opening this request for permission; however I have been away for over a decade and am prepared to face challenges with humility. Fifteen years ago I worked on Led Zeppelin which was at the time poorly organized but since I left has been promoted to GA status. My opinion is that Loretta Lynn is on a similar level as a significant performer and figure in popular music history, and naturally I want articles about her and her work to have

top-shelf reviews; even stubs should strive for high quality, especially references within them, to help other editors find further material, to set a tone of sincerity and professionalism. Thank you again TechnoSquirrel69. Sswonk (talk) 14:17, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

What makes the Treaty of Southampton notable? voorts (talk/contributions) 21:56, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Sswonk voorts (talk/contributions) 22:19, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Voorts -- The notability rises from its mention in reliable sources as the first alliance between England and the Dutch Republic and as an initial policy forming act of Charles I. There was an existing maritime agreement, but the treaty went further and allied the two nations against Spain during a volatile period. To quote Anton Poot whose PhD thesis is one of the sources, "the maritime agreement had not mentioned Spain by name as the common enemy; the Treaty of Southampton left no doubt. It created an Anglo-Dutch partnership for a joint war against Spain, effectively meaning that England joined the Dutch in a war they had been waging already for decades." Charles was asserting England against Spain formally. The sources find it significant in the history of the Eighty Years War and of pre-civil war England.

I haven't really looked further, but in Special:Diff/1313335271 added the text:

Swift observed the Nova on 2025-09-23.64 and detected a bright source of hard x-rays at the position of the nova. The early detection might indicate a symbiotic nature of the host binary system. Alternatively the nova may be unusually fast in clearing up its ejecta

compare to the source:

The early detection might indicate a symbiotic nature of the host binary system. Alternatively the nova may be unusually fast in clearing up its ejecta[2]

Similarlly, in Special:Diff/1313838571

NEOMIR would have shorter exposure times and higher cadence of revisit, this would ensure that faster NEOs are not missed.

compared to source:

shorter exposure times and higher cadence of revisit, ensuring that faster and therefore closer NEOs crossing the field of regard are not missed.

Again, have not looked further, and it's not egregious. But worth a note. GreenLipstickLesbian 💌🦋 19:19, 2 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to request autopatrolled rights. According to an XTools analysis, in the past year, I've created 44 articles, of which 14 are C-class and 10 are B-class (10 of the remainder being yet to be assessed). Mupper-san (talk) 15:16, 28 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Voorts Given Cohen's status as a "specialist in human rights and humanitarian and refugee issues" (per the Brookings Institute, where she is [was?] a senior fellow) and given the fact that she's worked with the United Nations on refugee issues (per Francis Deng), I don't see a particular reason not to consider her work reliable, though as I recall the number did somewhat surprise me.

Hello, I am requesting Autopatrolled rights in order to reduce the backlog of articles awaiting review. I primarily create new articles on politics and law with a focus on biographies of notable individuals. I ensure that the content I add are verifiable and the articles comply with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. My previous request was declined in March 2025. Since then, I have strived to improve the quality of my contributions and have made substantial improvements to several existing ones, upgrading them to B-grade, e.g., [3], [4] and [5]. Regards.

Over the last 5 years, Junglenut has created 240 articles on various plant species, many of which have been elevated to C and B class. Of these 240 pages, none have been deleted apart from one G7. Nothing really needs to be done to these besides get marked as patrolled. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 07:03, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A trusted user who regularly creates new pages, Skitash has made 86 articles, many of which are C class. Their only 3 deletions came from their first few Wikipedia pages which they made in 2022 and 2023, but after this rocky start, the next 80 or so have been well put together and look solid. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 07:09, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

As Skitash has an open CCI, which actually means that a lot of the 80 pages @Utopes is looking at aren't quite as solid as they seem. Anyways, I've spotchecked a couple articles they've created since then:

The Grebo people, numbering 30,000 armed men entrenched in Cape Palmas and along the Cavalla River, declared war on the Liberian government for having confiscated their land under the auspices of the Maryland State Colonization Society. [6]
- The Grebos, according to Turner, numbered approximately thirty thousand. Their complaint against the Liberian government was that it had sanctioned the theft of land from them by a group of American-born blacks at Cape Palm as under the auspices of the Maryland Colonization Society [7]
Aboard it, Captain Alexander Alderman Semmes, gathered the leaders of the Grebo rebellion and informed them that the United States was prepared to use full force to subdue them. When they complained that the land concessions they received were too small, Semmes replied with [8]
- He gathered the leaders of the rebellion together and told them that the United States government was prepared to use the full extent of its power to subdue them. When the rebels complained that the amount they had received for land cessions was too small, Semmes contemptuously told them[9]
'The American commander had also promised 'to obtain for the Grebos Liberian citizenship so that they can trade without intermediaries - article
- the American commander promised to use his influence to obtain for them a grant of citizenship that would enable then as Liberians to conduct trade on their own behalf without intermediaries [10] (WP:GLOBALSECURITY)

- caused “extensive” damage in the heart of Damascus, according to the Observatory

GreenLipstickLesbian 💌🦋 08:05, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was unaware of the CCI, thanks for the note. I encountered this user via seeing some of their pages in the new page queue, and spotchecking their later creations I could imagine them all being patrolled (good categories, good references, good organization). In fact, I think all of their pages are patrolled, and probably get noticed ASAP (I haven't been able to find an unpatrolled one). All of the pages seem to be on highly visible topics, and get a lot of pageviews. I don't know whether sitting in the NPP queue is going to change the situation that much, but the copyvio stuff is still a worthy concern. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 08:13, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. Utopes, I hate to say this, but I think you should avoid suggesting any more editors for AP for the next while. -- asilvering (talk) 04:31, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Asilvering: That's fine. For clarity, my workflow has mainly come from the back-end of the redirect queue. I was noticing a series of good redirects from Skitash, so I checked their redirect creations, which were just short of 100. Out of curiosity, I checked their article creations and saw 86 pages created with 3 deleted, and the only deletions were 3 of their first 7 pages, meaning that Skitash has gone 79 for 79 in pages created staying up in the last 2 and a half years. I felt this was a good sign for possible AP, which prompted me to poke into a few of their pages to see if they had any tags to be concerned about. Most of the pages seemed to be in depth and well-attended to, so I figured I'd toss their name in the ring as a possible AP candidate. I did not check for the CCI, which was my mistake, and I'll be sure that I don't nominate any AP candidates with CCI pages in the future. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 04:50, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Utopes It's not so much that they have a CCI open (there's a handful of autopatrolled editors with them), it's that the copyright issues are both recent still being introduced. The fact that the pages haven't been deleted means, really, just means that nobody either draftified it or took it to AfD, and if they tagged it then the tag came off (whether that's through other editor's editing or quiet tag removal on the part of the page author, who knows). The articles themselves can still have severe problems (CV, BLP vios, reliance on deprecated sources); ideally NPP should catch these. Anyways, more eyes means more of a chance of catching problems before they get worse. GreenLipstickLesbian 💌🦋 07:57, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

ElijahPepe has created many pages that have gone on to become B-class, and even GAs. They've created 281 articles over the years, which rarely get deleted (it's been a year since the last time that happened). The deleted page in question was 2024 Houston helicopter crash, which I'm sure looked like a well constructed article while it was up. But for the last 12 months, every page has stuck around, about 80 or so pages in a row. I don't think these creations need NPP attention. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 07:19, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Noting, it seems that AP was removed in April 2024. I think the track record since then has been enough, from my view as a patroller (staring at the backlog). All of the pages seem well constructed. There's not much for NPP to add onto, because each article is about as good-looking as it can be, but there have been past issues regarding notability for these good-looking articles. Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 07:32, 6 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm open to this, but I do have two questions/requests from User:ElijahPepe. (1) Could you briefly reflect on why AP was revoked? Curious to hear your thoughts and how you've grown from that incident. and (2) In the discussion, there was a request to use edit summaries. Now, edit sumamry usage is not a requirement for AP, but generally when we assign more advanced permissions, there is some expectation that people follow best practices in terms of communication. THere's a setting that reminds you to put one in, and "add src", "ce" or very succint edit summaries are not really that much to ask I wouldn't think. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 06:58, 7 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for finding this Left guide. Unfortunately, that leads to the conclusion it's too soon to reevaluate. Not done. With a request to start using edit summaries consistently. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 09:20, 7 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I was unaware of that ANI thread, I agree it might be too soon then. I will say, to the ANI point, it seems that particular thread was prompted because of the 2024 Houston helicopter crash PROD, as it seemed to be a central talking point in that thread (and it was a page that Elijah agreed with the deletion of in that thread). Yet for future's sake, I think it's important to note that this has been Elijah's last page deletion, now over a year ago, meaning that Elijah has been 80 for 80 in the last 12 months (this also includes promoted AfC drafts). But yeah, the April 2024 bitflip I thought was the end of it, but if there was a noticeboard discussion in Nov 2024 too, then maybe manual patrols are fine for now. I do think Elijah is on the right track a lot of the time, and this has been a good 2025 from the looks of it page-creation wise, but this can hopefully be revisited later with more quality creations in the future. (And yes, edit summaries, edit summaries, edit summaries as well!) Utopes _{(talk / cont)} 11:13, 7 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Traumnovelle is an editor I've been seeing a lot creation-wise. They have good talkpage communication that I've seen, and has created 50 pages over the last year and a half, with none deleted. Many of the pages are C and even B class, and none have any problematic tags on them. I don't think they need to sit in the NPP queue, essentially all seem pretty safe to mark as patrolled.

Hi, I’m requesting AWB access to add categories (which I usually add manually), fix typos, and tag articles that contain a lot of LLM content, like over here [14]. I know AWB doesn’t detect it automatically, but tagging articles after reviewing would make cleanup easier. Jesus isGreat7 ☾⋆ | Ping Me 14:43, 7 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is my second request for AWB permissions. My first request was denied in July, citing a lack of editing experience. I made hundreds of edits in the mean time and have gained more experience with Wikipedia and its policies. So I'm requesting permission to perform batch edits via AWB, mainly for adding Rcat templates, as well as for fixing broken links using Regex, where the URL schema has changed (e.g. http://www.airbus.com/presscentre/pressreleases/press-release-detail/detail/airbus-launches-a-new-systems-enhancement-package-for-in-service-a320-family-aircraft/ -> https://www.airbus.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2007-09-airbus-launches-a-new-systems-enhancement-package-for-in-service)

I asked a follow-up question in the last thread, but didn't get an answer. So if this request is denied, please answer my following questions: By which metrics do you measure experience, and how do you think could I enhance my editing skills and knowledge? What would be a good point in time to make another request? Spiral6800 (talk) 18:20, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Have already accumulated 1000+ edits over the past few days. I will be using AWB to mass fix typos, lint errors, regex for bigger edits where \n and \r aren't supported with the advanced replace option in source edit.

Here is more proof that I am capable of using AWB. Usually I don't share information like this publicly, but for the sake of proof here it is

→ $1$4$2 $3]]

• Draws:
Expanding names in finals section:
(expand names in finals section FIRST:
1. make sure all flags are present
2. use " / " not "<br />")

• Finals:

 Section draws:
1. (\w{1})(\w+)\s(\w+\-\w+)\s(\w+) (X-Y)
→ {{flagicon|$4}} [[$1$2 $3|$1 $3]]
2. (\w{1})(\w+)\s(\w+\s\w+)\s(\w+) (X Y)

• Wiping full brackets:
S: 
1. remove ''' first → 
2. (\{\{flagicon\|.+\}\})\s(\[\[.+\]\])
→ [[]] ( )
D: (\{\{flagicon\|.+\}\})\s(\[\[.+\]\])\s(\{\{flagicon\|.+\}\})\s(\[\[.+\]\])
→ [[]] ( ) <br /> [[]] ( )

(seed\d+\=|score\d+\-\d+\=).+
→ $1

For context, after creating the page template,

I would fill out the necessary information: name, surname, and country to get from a stub to a finished article, like so:

Step 1: Fill out the added seeded players using the first line of the above code.
Step 2: Add the players and their countryflags in the finals and then expand them to the standard Wiki format.
Step 3: Fill out the rest of the draws with the players and flags, followed by expanding the players' names and countryflags in the draws into a standard wiki format.

Rinse and repeat for related pages using the above regex. 8rz (talk) 12:01, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for requesting confirmed rights

Hello, I am an active contributor on the Spanish Wikipedia, but I am currently editing and translating content into English as well. I believe some of my edits are not being counted or are being restricted due to the lack of confirmed user rights on the English Wikipedia. I would appreciate it if I could be granted confirmed status so I can continue contributing more efficiently and without interruption. Thank you! ~

I meet all the criteria, you may check. I have never been blocked and I have never violated 3RR, I have never been paid for my editing (neither is it likely that I will, check the areas where I edit and the userboxes on my page), and I interact quite well with people (mostly leaving warnings and talking politely when I have a direct question for the user in question). I have participated and initiated many AfDs; placed and removed many PROD tags, and I have engaged in RfD and MfD (but not CSD I believe). I have created a couple of new articles, mostly lists. At the beginning, they weren't that good but now they are definitely much better as I understand things like RS, V, MOS, etc. better. I am also a reviewer at AfC Thanks, 🇪🇭🇵🇸🇸🇩 East ernsa hara 🇪🇭🇵🇸🇸🇩 02:46, 9 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am applying for the permission of page mover so that I will be able to carry out page moves without worrying about being blocked due to the target page already having a redirect, which then requires me to make a technical request and fill up the backlog. This particularly would help when the grammar or spacing of an article title is changed, and if there are subordinate articles relating to the main article, I will be able to change them as well en masse. I believe I meet all of the basic requirements, and I do have significant experience in page moving, and especially in initiating and participating in move discussions. A few examples of successful page moves I initiated and discussed in were: Sirius XM → SiriusXM, American Athletic Conference → American Conference (NCAA), and Delaware Valley → Philadelphia metropolitan area. I also participated a lot in the discussion to ultimately have the Stanley Cup Finals page changed to Stanley Cup Final.

Using the example of SiriusXM, when the title was changed to reflect the official branding and common usage by removing the space, this required the titles of all of the pages for SiriusXM channels to be changed as well. I was able to change some, but not all, and this required me to have to fill up a backlog on the WP:RM page, which obviously have been more efficient with this permission.

I would like the role as part of my duties as a new page patroller, so I don't have to leave a redirect after moving a page to the draft space.

Hi, I'm requesting these rights as they would be helpful to me in moving pages without redirects, help at WP:RM/TR. I'm also a file mover & it would assist me in moving files without redirects. Also, it would be very useful in Draftifying.

The editor should be a registered Wikipedia user for at least 6 months. (11/8 months)
The editor should have at least 3,000 edits. (2438+1230=3668)
The editor should demonstrate experience with moving pages in accordance with guidelines. Participation in requested moves and move reviews, or experience closing move requests is a good way to gauge this.
The editor should have no behavioral blocks or 3RR violations in the 6 months prior to application.

I have made many mistakes in page moving in the past, but I try my best not to repeat them & learn from them. Thanks! Ophyrius (he/him

@Ophyrius: Quick questions: Would you move files without leaving a redirect in instances where you wouldn't currently have requested speedy deletion of the move redirect? If so, what would be an example? ~ Jenson (SilverLocust 💬) 06:20, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SilverLocust I don't think I would need to do that because a redirect has to be suppressed when moved per WP:FNC#2, 4, 5, 8, 9, and sometimes per WP:FNC#3. All of the redirects left due to these meet the speedy deletion criteria. Ophyrius (he/him

@Ophyrius: What CSD do you consider 2 and 4 as falling under? ~ Jenson (SilverLocust 💬) 10:29, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@SilverLocust:, Many files renamed according to criteria 2 and 4 fall under CSD G1. I could be mistaken about this, as I don’t have much experience with renaming files in these categories. However, whether the redirect should be suppressed depends on the original file name, not the renaming criteria. Ophyrius (he/him
T • C • G) 13:59, 8 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:FILEREDIRECT is clear that most file redirects should be kept, even if the name is gibberish. Developers have even threatened to desysop admins who delete file redirects without very good reason.

I am also good at moving-adjacent things, like discussing changes on the talk page and I am familiar with redirects. In addition to moving things often, I am also a reviewer at AFC. Giving me this right will create less burden at WP:RMTR and will prevented other unopposed moves which I create discussions for.

I have been patrolling Special:RecentChanges and Special:AbuseLog for about 40-50 days, definitely more than a month, and have collected over 610 edits, most of which are reverts of vandalism. I have only been given one warning regarding my editing, a contentious topics BLP alert, and have never engaged in edit warring or been blocked. Although I was more careless about warning users earlier, I always place {{uw}}s when I revert edits, except in the most minor and routine reversions. As everything moves very quickly at Special:RecentChanges, rollback would help me revert obviously bad-faith edits quicker and also possibly use AntiVandal and Huggle.

I would like to request for Rollback permission, so that I can help tackle vandalism in Wikipedia articles. I am reaching 2000 edits and have never been involved in any edit warring or any fights at any point. I work well with other users and consistently give proper edit summary for most changes I make. The only suggested requirement I don't currently meet is to notify other users on their Talk Page when reverting an edit (I have only reverted a few obvious vandalism), but I will definitely do it from now on.

I will follow all the rules listed on this page, and am familiar with the editing guidelines. I will be a good addition to the Wikipedia community and will help prevent vandalism with this rollback permission. SeanBeans1981 (talk) 07:15, 21 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello SeanBeans1981, you have never used the "undo" link next to someone else's edit yet ([18]), and your list of manual reverts is very short. I'm very open to granting this permission to an experienced editor like you, but you'd need to have the required track record of countervandalism, for example by using the links here on my dashboard to find and undo vandalism without the rollback tool for a while. See Help:Reverting for ways to undo multiple contributions at once, see WP:UWARN for templates to be used on the reverted users' talk pages. Please notify me on my talk page (or re-request here) when you have built the track record of recent changes patrolling experience. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 12:52, 22 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am back from a Wikibreak and committed to editing again, particularly in AV. I had rollback on my old account, but regardless I still meet the criteria now. I've made over 200 mainspace edits, have multiple months experience with RC patrolling (albeit on and off), try to hold myself to a 1R rule for reverts not exempt from edit warring, and always warn after I revert. I use Ultraviolet for AV and know my way around Huggle, so rollback would help me use both of these quicker and more efficiently. In addition to my reverts, I have made several G3 requests and AIV reports (all of which were acted on in some way), and am active in anti-promotion work.

Hi, I'm a fairly new RC patroller but am requesting this right to fight vandalism more efficiently. I monitor Recent Changes with the "damaging=likelybad" filter and think it will be cool if I could revert more vandalism quicker and easier. Individually reverting each edit isn't exactly efficient, especially when mass reverting edits by obvious vandals, so I think that having rollback will help me out a lot with my anti-vandalism goals.

I have around 3.7k edits; I'd like this privilege since I edit about World Heritage Sites and contentious topics, both of which have their fair share of vandalism. I've reverted a fair amount of vandalism. Clearly, I am familiar with V, RS, BLP, MOS, etc. as I do reviews at FAC, FLC, and GAN. I always discuss changes of mine that have been reverted, and those which I revert. This is in accordance to WP:BRD and use templates when doing so. Although, I won't use rollback for these purposes and rather blatant vandalism (as it is meant to be used). I also meet the other criteria.
