Requests for accountcreator

Account creator

I'm requesting Account creator to help people gain access to Wikipedia accounts. Cisaa11 (talk) 05:07, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Requests for autopatrolled

Autopatrolled

Has created roughly 30 articles by my count; only one stub, my spotchecks found nothing concerning. Diverging Diamond (is Queen of Hearts's alt; talk) 19:10, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Is there any indication that the user wants autopatrolled? I don't want to throw rights at someone who would prefer that their creations be reviewed by NPP/AfC. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 10:42, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
@Red-tailed hawk: Unlike other PERMs, third party nominations for autopatrolled are welcome (preferred even), because it's primarily a tool used by NPP to manage its workload rather than a tool used by the holder to edit. If someone really doesn't want it for some reason, they can of course ask for it to be removed. – Joe (talk) 11:59, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
@Red-tailed hawk I would be open to having it. Hypothetically I like the idea of someone else checking my articles or critiquing them, but no one who has patrolled my articles has ever really made a significant change or tagged anything, so it hasn't really helped there lol, so if it reduces the NPP workload and gets the page indexed faster I don't see why not. PARAKANYAA (talk) 13:04, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
In that case, I have no objection to granting the right. — Red-tailed sock (Red-tailed hawk's nest) 13:08, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

For a third time, I'm applying for autopatrolled rights; my first request was denied in April 2023, and my second request was denied in June 2024. The reason for the first decline was that my previous articles were tagged for "notability." After that decline, I worked on bringing articles over from the Russian Wikipedia and had relatively few problems when other editors were reviewing them (I don't bring over everything from those respective pages, so I added a tag for expanding from Russian to let others know that information is still there). The reason for the second decline was that I moved one of my BLP articles back into the mainspace without changing the sourcing, and it was eventually deleted (that was a mistake on my part). Now, roughly two months later, I have had little to no problems with the other articles I have brought over. I respectfully request that I be granted the autopatrolled permission this time around, as I believe it will help lighten the NPP workload to some extent. Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Requests for AutoWikiBrowser access

AutoWikiBrowser


Requesting so I can help streamline small edits like typos, general maintenance, and so on. NyanThousand (talk) 12:56, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

I will use AWB to tag galaxy-related (and other astronomical objects) with the appropriate talk page banners (WP:ASTRONOMICAL OBJECTS), and will use it to tag "Weather of _____" with the corresponding task force talk page banner tags. I can also use it for typos on long tornado articles, which tend to have misspellings in them. Sir MemeGod ._. (talk - contribs - created articles) 05:10, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

Hoping it will make nitpicky edit somewhat less tedious. Isaac Rabinovitch (talk) 18:05, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

Requests for extended confirmation

Extended confirmed

I probably will not be extended confirmed because I have made few edits. etaoin shrdlu(cmfwyp|vbgkqj) 14:28, 1 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. This will be granted automatically when you meet the requirements listed above. stwalkerster (talk) 16:42, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
But it has been more than 30 days! etaoin shrdlu(cmfwyp|vbgkqj) 21:37, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
You need to meet both the 30 day requirement and the 500 edits requirement. At the moment, you've only made 73 edits. stwalkerster (talk) 23:01, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
I thought it was 30 edits within 500 days! etaoin shrdlu(cmfwyp|vbgkqj) 13:52, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

I ask permission to translate from English to Italian and viceversa without waiting for the 30 days and 500 edits limits... I would like to add more information about my family and my ancestors (Barattucci, in Wikipedia I found only Antonio: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Barattucci) but I don't think I will reach 500 edits during this process.. and I'd like to translate the pages into English too. Also, I'd like to translate into Italian the page of the Adragna family (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adragna_family), one of its member is my friend Marta Adragna and she asked me to create the Italian version. Thanks in advance, Fabio Barattucci. DucaTux (talk) 22:42, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

@DucaTux: I'm somewhat sympathetic to this request, but could you try to write some pages here first? If you write some articles on English Wikipedia (or even better, manually translate some articles to the site) that meet our content standards, and you promise to not edit in any contentious topics areas before you have had an account for 30 days with 500 edits, I'd grant this permission.
I'll note that for example, it:Antonio Barattucci is somewhat below our standards as there aren't any inline references (we would also usually want more than one reliable source to demonstrate notability. Also it's discouraged to write articles about people you're closely related to, as you might have a conflict of interest... but obviously it's fine for historical figures from hundreds of years ago.
Finally, we can't grant you any permissions here at Italian Wikipedia, which you'd need to translate to Italian. You'll have to request those there.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Gonna mark this as  Not done for now in the meantime. Elli (talk | contribs) 01:04, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

My previous account was User:Toobigtokale, I had it closed per WP:RTV but decided to make a new account per WP:CLEANSTART as per the instructions on RTV. On my previous account I was extended confirmed and also had access to WP:AutoWikiBrowser. My account was consistently in good standing, had around 77,000 edits on it. Samples of my past work: 1883 Korean special mission to the United States, Utoro, Uji

I'd like to get access to EC status early so I can edit some locked Korea-related pages, namely Seoul and the Korean War. seefooddiet (talk) 08:05, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
Requests for new page reviewer

New page reviewer

I want to reduce the massive backlog. I have been looking at the new pages patrol feed sporadically for the past two months and the backlog keeps increasing. I want to play a part in reviewing the articles. HRShami (talk) 11:19, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello there, I am interested tn helping out in new page reviewing as there are very large articles backlog and love to do so. Xegma(talk) 07:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Question, though I am not an administrator, I see that you have published accepted AFC submissions, even if they lack citations or are in need of some fixing. And some have orange banners on them. Why is this? — 48JCL 01:01, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
@48JCL: As they should. The standard at acceptance at AfC is that the article would probably survive an AfD. Nothing more. Declining a draft for surmountable problems like a lack of citations or pretty much anything covered by a cleanup banner is inappropriate. – Joe (talk) 08:18, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
I spot checked the 4 most recent accepts and they had lots of citations at time of acceptance. Feel free to link to the specific draft accepts you are concerned with. A complete lack of citations is a valid draftification reason and valid AFC decline reason, but I am not seeing that here. A major lack of citations such as entire paragraphs missing a citation (and also not supported by any WP:GENREFs) could be a valid decline reason (WP:V is policy after all). But it may also be reasonable to accept a draft that is mostly cited and just missing a couple citations, such as Draft:Norah Fulcher. –Novem Linguae (talk) 13:33, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

I would like to request new page reviewer rights to help review newly-created articles and lower the backlog. I have accepted lots of drafts at AFC and participated in many AfDs with deep discussions to exhibit my knowledge of notability, as I was advised previously. Thanks! Waqar💬 19:55, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I see you found the IP at AfC who submits soundtrack articles (41 accepts of soundtracks it looks like). I'm glad to see you've started to accept drafts at AfC, instead of just declining (a ratio of 1 accepted to 348 declined at the time of the last application). I do still have concerns about your experience at AFD, given that, of your last 40 votes, all but 2 of them were pile on votes where the result had basically already been decided based on the number of votes for the conclusion you chose. You accepted one piece of criticism from me, your lack of accepts at AfC, but you do still appear to be pile on voting. Honestly, I'm not sold, but I'll leave it up to someone else whether they want to grant you a trial or not. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:56, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your feedback. I understand your points, I've made lots of contributions recently, and I hope I will be granted a trial to demonstrate my willingness to contribute positively. Best, Waqar💬 07:49, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
I'd like to say that I've been working so hard for the past couple of months. I've made so many contributions to AFCs, I've reviewed over 1,160 articles (accepts: 138, declines: 670, and the rest either rejected or speedily deleted) so far. I'm also actively patrolling the new page feed, adding maintenance tags, and tagging articles for speedy deletion like A3, A7, and G11. I've drafted more than 200 articles that either lacked reliable sources or needed additional sources. In the AFD discussions, I voted on more than 150 pages. Without considering the no consensus results, 98.6% of my AfD's were matches, and even though the votes were assumed to be piles on voting, most of my recent votes were very detailed and specific and weren't pointing towards anyone, but I will accept their valuable advice and try my best to make improvements at AFDs as well. Having said that, I believe that all those contributions exhibit my hard work and dedication. I hope I get a chance to at least prove myself by patrolling new pages, and I would be more than happy to help with the backlog. Thanks for your time and consideration. Waqar💬 18:10, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

I was given a trial for a few months and would like to renew my permissions. I have made good use of my permissions by fixing new pages and applying CSD whenever necessary. Florificapis (talk) 22:45, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Requests for page mover

Page mover


I have been editing for over 7 years and I plan on using this permission in order to help with discussions on WP:RM and deal with cross-redirects for articles that should have more disambiguated titles. KingSkyLord (talk | contribs) 12:46, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting page mover rights: I want to have my page mover rights extended, as I contribute to RM/TR. Was given 3mo trial and it will end on August 20. ToadetteEdit! 08:30, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user was granted temporary page mover rights by Robertsky (expires 00:00, 20 August 2024 (UTC)). MusikBot talk 08:40, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

I was granted pagemover rights nearly a month back, but due to mistakes on my part, the rights have been now revoked. So, I am requesting the rights again on Primefac's advice, explaining why I made the mistakes and how I shall avoid those mistakes going forward.

  • On 30 July, I moved British Indian Army to Indian Army (1895–1947) after which Celia Homeford informed me that the move had been unilateral, following which I immediately proceeded to check the talk page of the article for previous RMs, which I did find and had resulted in the move of Indian Army (1895–1947) to British Indian Army. I hadn't checked the talk page before swapping the page and thus had not been aware of this RM when I had swapped — a mistake on my part. I had checked the WP:COMMONNAME of the article and sought to make the article title WP:Consistent with other historical army related articles like German Army (1935–1945) for instance. I should've checked the talk page and it's archives for any previous RMs and discussions before making the swap. That is what I usually do before making a move or a swap, but this step had slipped my mind in this case. In future, I shall make sure to always check the talk page and the archives for RMs and discussions regarding the article title without fail before making a move or a swap.

I've learnt from my mistakes and hope not to repeat them. I also aim to minimise any chance of any other mistakes on my part. PadFoot (talk) 17:56, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Requests for rollback

Rollback

I've been patrolling recent changes for a while now, using Twinkle to warn members. I have over 200 mainspace edits, and I'm extended confirmed with over 700 edits total. I've also been doing NPP for a little too. I'd like to use rollback for more advanced tools such as Huggle and AntiVandal. Thanks, Lordseriouspig 06:14, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits. Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 10:34, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
I don’t believe I'm not, @Fastily:, I warn people using twinkle, here is my warn logs: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AContributions&target=Lordseriouspig&namespace=3&tagfilter=twinkle&start=&end=&limit=50. Lordseriouspig 20:31, 28 July 2024 (UTC)
I reviewed your contributions from last month and found these within seconds: 1, 2, 3. I'll repeat what I said above: it's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 08:03, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
I’m unsure why I forgot to add a warning for those, @Fastily, considering Twinkle automatically opens the talk page, but I usually warn members, and tools like Anti-vandal or Huggle would probable negate me forgetting warns. Thanks, Lordseriouspig 10:00, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
No worries, thanks for your honesty. Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? -Fastily 23:02, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
No problem, @Fastily I’ll definitely try to leave warnings for every revert I make. Thanks, Lordseriouspig 02:57, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for confirming  Done -Fastily 11:10, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

I've been viewing recent changes for a while with Twinkle, and would like to keep using the Android app to prevent vandalism, which requires rollback permissions.

I am aware, after reading others' requests, that warning users after edits must be done every single time. While there are moments in which I have forgot to do this in the past, I will ensure to make it a consistency going forward. LR.127 (talk) 00:54, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

Great, thanks for confirming. Could you please now go some RC patrol in which you demonstrate how you will be notifying all users? -Fastily 11:10, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
