  • DarthAdolf (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a disruptive username. AntiDionysius (talk) 23:21, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
    Comment: Not a clear violation. I think I see where you are going with this, but unless you can show some evidence, it is a stretch to call it disruptive. You need more than this. -- Alexf(talk) 00:38, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
    Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Please discuss this with the user first, and consider opening a community discussion at Requests for comment/User names if they disagree with your concerns. I would tend to agree with Alexf; while more uncommon since a certain historical figure had that name, Adolf is still a given name for people. I would suggest discussing your concerns with the editor first, then bringing it for discussion if your concerns are unresolved. 331dot (talk) 08:15, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
  • Rconsulting (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. Also implies shared usage, paid editing. — DaxServer (t·m·e·c) 07:40, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
    Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. "R" could indicate a person who in "consulting" and is not necessarily the name of an organization. They may be a paid editor, but that is not a username issue. 331dot (talk) 08:09, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

New Hollywood

[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – An anonymous editor has repeatedly removed dozens of films from the list in the article. It's not really clear what the reason is (the editor has described the sources as "vague" and "ambiguous"). Whether a particular film is an exponent of "New Hollywood" is open to challenge, but the correct approach would be to start a discussion on the talk page and state why you disagree with the film's inclusion, along with sources backing up your position (or alternatively an explanation as to why you don't think the sources used by the article are reliable. Some of the films removed (such as "Serpico", "Who's Afraid of Virgina Woolf" and "Last Tango in Paris") are so ingrained in the New Hollywood moement that it is hard to envisage a valid sourceable position that considers them otherwise. The editor should take the issue to the talk page and hopefully semi-protection would encourage them to do that. Betty Logan (talk) 12:39, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

[edit]
Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level
Shortcuts

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at 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.

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
Shortcut

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.

Reviewer Aszx5000 has messaged me twice that I should be autopatrolled. I don't care for my sake, since the process works fine for me, but I don't want to be a burden on the reviewers. Please either grant or deny this status based on whatever you think is best for the community. Thanks! Jordanroderick (talk) 23:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. I've checked a couple of articles. The articles are all nicely formatted, have at least one citation per paragraph.
However, when I started spot checks in Design 1099 Ship, I noted a high rate of mistakes in terms of WP:INTEGRITY. I've tagged with citation needed / failed verification. I think it would be good for you to go back over articles and really make sure your citations fully support all the preceding text in the paragraph. You may want to nominate for WP:GA afterwards to see if you've really succeeded here (in all other aspects, the articles I checked seem to meet the criteria). —Femke 🐦 (talk) 18:41, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Would like to cut down on the backlog of pages that need to be reviewed while I create pages, especially as of recent where I've been working on creating pages for military battles, and Bahmani rulers.

Though many of my articles have not been rated particularly high on the assessment scale, I think that I am experienced & familiar enough with Wikipedia's policies that articles I create need not clog up the new pages feed.

User:Sir MemeGod

[edit]

I have been an editor since 2020, but only really started ramping up my edits in February of this year. I have made 254+ pages (at least 4 of them are from redirects), 103 of which have been in the last 3 days. Another user (Ryan shell) suggested that I should apply. The only major issue that my articles have had in the past was me using AI, which I have acknowledged was wrong and promised not to do it again to an administrator, who worked with me on how to properly find info for articles without using AI. Most of my articles are stubs, and I feel like they can clog up the New Pages Feed a bit.

I have been contributing to Wikipedia, Wikidata, and Commons for over 10 years, especially on transportation-related topics. Since 2015, I have been serving as a Patroller on Turkish Wikipedia, which I believe has given me sufficient experience. Although I have some shortcomings, I believe I have a good understanding of the policies, which is why I would like to apply for this access level. Thanks for considering this request. bluetime93 💬 14:07, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user has created roughly 1 article. — MusikBot talk 14:10, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
 Not done. Autopatrolled is not an "access level". You can create new articles without being autopatrolled. Only after 25 creation without issues do we typically grant autopatrolled. It only means that the article doesn't get checked by new page reviewers. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 16:21, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]

At the start of this year, I received an automated message inviting me to join New pages patrol, which I noticed again today, so here I am. I have written several new pages lately, and have nominated articles for deletion in the past, so I am aware of the procedures of AfD, PROD, and CSD. I also have experience with similar topics from my time as admin on the Dutch Wikipedia. I try to be friendly, in particular towards new users. Finally, I might not know every guideline and will probably make mistakes, but I'm always open to feedback and will try to improve. Thanks for considering this request.

User:Allan Nonymous

[edit]

From time to time, I make the occasional page move, these are pretty much always uncontroversial moves. After seeing a move of mine from 6 months ago reviewed just today, I have decided, in the interest of reducing the backlog of editors who have to review my pages, to ask for this permission. Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC) Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

  • I don't see a lot of experience here, and I am not sure whether the request is indicating something related to the autopatrolled right, but for the time being I will just give a bit of feedback on a case I noticed. In May you moved Ricardo Cobo to Ricardo Cobo (Musician) in order to create a one-sentence stub on a different Ricardo Cobo. The disambiguator in this case should be in lowercase. More significantly, it appears that this was moved without any consideration of whether the mayor was the primary topic of the search term "Ricardo Cobo". The mayor's article gets fewer views than those of the musician, and when the stub was created, no hatnote link to the former occupant of that title was provided. Links were not fixed either, so for example, Guitar Foundation of America now links incorrectly to the mayor instead of the musician. Why did you decide to make way for the article on the mayor here? Did you consider making a disambiguation page? Dekimasuよ! 02:38, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
    To be honest, the upper case typo was a WP:MOS mistake on my part, I take full responsibility. As to whether it should have been a primary or secondary redirect. I felt that, per criterion 2, the mayor of a major city (pop 1 million +) usually has long term significance. I didn't feel there was a need for a disambiguation page with just two entries. As for the links, to be honest, at the time I just assumed Wikipedia fixed those during a move (you can WP:TROUT me for that one). Allan Nonymous (talk) 11:33, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
    Usually replacement of one article with an article on an unrelated topic without any intermediate step is not advisable precisely because it breaks things internally. Instead of a trout, can you help fix the links and lack of hatnote? Dekimasuよ! 21:44, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
  • (non-admin comment) The group (really a list) that makes an editor's redirects automatically reviewed is the redirect autopatrol list (rather than page mover). However, the guideline is that users normally aren't nominated for that list until they have created 100 redirects. Currently, Allan Nonymous, you're at 12 live redirects created in the article space. (Deleted move redirects don't show up in the tool, since they aren't logged as page creations.) SilverLocust 💬 07:18, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
  •  Not done, mainly per lack of indicated need; reducing the backlog of page patrols really isn't what this permission is for, and I'm not seeing any indication (either in the application itself or in the move/edit histories) that this would be particularly useful. No prejudice against requesting in the future if this changes and the tools would be needed on a regular basis. Primefac (talk) 12:52, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

User:Raladic

[edit]

I want to help with the renaming of various LGBTQ child pages as a result follow-up to the main article LGBTQ now being LGBTQ as a result of the concluded Talk:LGBTQ#Requested move 14 August 2024 discussion that I initiated. Most of the child pages all have existing redirects that need to be page swapped and many are not just 1-iteration, so need to WP:ROUNDROBIN swapped, for which Page Mover permissions are required. I am aware of the policies around page moving and will respect the permissions as such. Raladic (talk) 16:43, 27 August 2024 (UTC)

Raladic, what's the scale/scope of the pages needing moved? Best guess is okay, I don't necessarily need a specific number (my thought process here is wondering if WP:RM/TR might be a better route). (please do not ping on reply) Primefac (talk) 12:49, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
Many, basically for many years all sub-pages that have the article title "LGBT" have followed the principle of "when the time comes that the main article 'LGBT' gets rename, then we'll rename the others" - that time has come now, so basically all sorts of other pages (and categories) that currently have LGBT in the title should be updated to LGBTQ now per WP:COMMONNAME, so basically very many pages under Category:LGBT that have LGBT in the name, including those categories as well.
Also likely the WikiProject LGBT itself. If there is some automated way to achieve that in bulk, then that of course would also be fine if that is what you were trying to get at with the Technical Request link. Raladic (talk) 14:31, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

[edit]

General moves. Recently I've wanted to move some voting theory articles (e.g. participation criterion) to rephrase them in terms of their associated paradoxes (e.g. the no show paradox). I've typically found this makes them more intuitive to most people. – Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 00:17, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done per lack of demonstrated need, lack of RM and RM/TR experience, and more broadly speaking a rather high percentage of move reversals compared to the total number of moves. Primefac (talk) 12:44, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello @Elli. I understand that we don't give roles like that, on the other hand I don't really understand what seniority has to do with it, any sane person knows the difference between pure vandalism and a bad, unintentional modification, it's quite easy to spot what needs to be put back or not. See my posts on Noni Madueke, S-segment and on the discussions of the vandals concerned. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 09:53, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

 Not done, fails multiple criteria. Primefac (talk) 12:54, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
I would like to point out that regarding guideline 4, I was reverting (what I percieved as) vandalism on an article, that my block was only applied to that singular page, with overwhelming support for the reverts, and that I chose not to dispute it since it was only a 48h block. As for the 5th, I simply don't tend to edit templates using sandboxes, but by pushing edits directly. It really seems like a redundant requirement since not everybody's editing style is the same. No comments on the 6th — IмSтevan talk 22:51, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
5 naturally leads into 6, because most TPE will request that a proposed edit be made to the sandbox before the change is implemented. If it is a trivial/"simple" change it is generally not counted towards 6 because sandboxing is unnecessary, and thus there is no demonstration of technical ability. Another thing that 5 and 6 demonstrate is that there is actually a need for this perm, not just "I think I might find this useful", because template screwups are probably the most widely-visible mistake one can make. In other words, the objective requirements get you a review, the subjective requirements determine whether your request is granted. If you do find yourself frequently seeing the need and making changes to protected templates, feel free to request again in the future. Primefac (talk) 10:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)
