Template:Admin dashboard/light

< Template:Admin dashboard
  1. Frequently, some pages transcluding {{Admin dashboard}} are going on overflow and appear at Category:Pages_where_post-expand_include_size_is_exceeded.
    This Template:Admin dashboard/light has been rewritten by including directly all the parts that were dispersed in so many sub-templates.
  2. The "leaks out boxes" error has been fixed.
  3. Pages RFPP and UNFAA are simply linked (i.e. not transcluded) when too busy


CAVEAT: all the |show= parameters have been set to 7 days.

Here for It All

edit

Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 03:55, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Declined – No changes to the current protection level are required at this point in time. Not clear that there's significant disruptive editing going on, and last IP vandalism was two edits yesterday, quickly reverted, and the IP hasn't returned yet. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 01:53, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

2025 Women's Cricket World Cup

edit

Reason: IP user keeps changing the page; needs protection until the tournament ends. Godknowme1 (talk) 06:24, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Pages are not protected preemptively. Additionally I don't see any disruptive IP activity in the past ~100 edits or so. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 01:45, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Bigg Boss (Hindi TV series) season 19

edit

Reason: High level of vandalism. Kaustubh42 (talk) 02:39, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Likely collateral damage as one or several users who are making improvements would be affected by the requested protection. I see a lot of IP activity but I don't see large amounts of reverts, or anyone using edit summaries suggesting vandalism is a problem. ⇒SWATJester Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat! 03:21, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Shia Islam in Australia

edit

Reason: The article covers a sensitive topic involving living individuals and religious communities, which makes it prone to biased or misleading edits. Ali.alsamail (talk) 05:18, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

edit
Request removal of protection from a page, or reducing the current protection level
Shortcuts

Before posting a request to this page, please discuss it with the protecting administrator first. You can create a request below only if you receive no response from them.

To find out which administrator protected the page, go to the page's edit history and click on the "View logs for this page" link (located underneath the page's title). The protecting administrator is listed in the protection log entry, next to the words "protected", "changed protection level", or "configured pending changes". If there are a large number of log entries on the page, use the drop-down menu near the top of the page and select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" to filter the logs accordingly.

DO NOT request a reduction in protection if...

  • ...you are being prevented from editing the page. A desire to change content is not a valid reason for unprotection. Instead:
    • If you can edit the article's talk page, use the WP:Edit Request Wizard to propose a change on the article's talk page. Include an explanation of the exact content that you want to change, and what the content will be afterward.
    • If the article's talk page is protected, you may propose a change at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Edit.
  • ...your reasoning for reducing protection is that the article has not been vandalized. That simply means the protection is working as intended.
  • ...your reasoning for reducing protection is basically "a long time has passed" without supporting details.
  • ...you haven't contacted the protecting administrator.

You may request a protection reduction below if...

  • ...you want to change the protection level of a template or module from full protection to template protection. You may add the request to this page without having to discuss it with the protecting administrator first.
  • ...you need to remove creation protection from a location where no page exists (redlinked pages) after a draft version of the intended article is prepared beforehand and ready to be published.
  • ...you are proposing a trial reduction in protection for a page that has been protected for several years, provided the proposal is supported by evidence such as talk page activity, page views, page traffic, number of watchers, frequency of edit requests, and prior history of vandalism.
  • ...the protecting administrator is inactive or has not responded to you in several days.

If you cannot locate your request, make sure to check the request archives to see if it's been moved there. Only requests that have been recently answered will still be listed here.

Reason: Temporary unprotection to fix lint errors on the page. Pointed here from WP:RFPP/E. Tenshi! (Talk page) 19:54, 1 October 2025 (UTC)

See instructions above. Please ask the owner of that archive, who is an administrator and can determine the need for protecting it. He has been recently active (but not for a month). Leave a message on the talk page, or contact by email, and wait. There are no deadlines here. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 19:05, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

SoCal Olympians

edit

Reason: This article does not cite any sources. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. Find sources: "SoCal Olympians" – news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR (October 2025)

This is not an improvement of the page. Deleted additions were accurate, there was nothing inaccurate, wrong, false, untrue, ambiguous or controversial about the actual material. The counter editor had issues with the references, some of the format and I am guessing too much information (which was classifed as being unencyclopedic). So the counter editor not only wnent back to eliminating the new edits, the original article from 2010, was reduce to a token of its original. Even more puzzling, all references that pre-dated my additions and were not mine to begin with, were also deleted. The new stub notes this....well it seems that it is the work of the counter editor and a reviewer in Brazil to make it even worse. its interesting to note that there is now a question about a reference for John Moffet, when there was one, from the USOPA, the official national organization.....guess that was deemed to be trivial fluff as well (a term frequently employed by the counter editor). Bottom line, or so it seems: Less is more, way less is even better, and next to nothing is best of all, especially if unattributed....then lets lock down the site so no corrections can be done. I will say that my experience has confirmed everything that basically everyone whom I personally know told me about Wikipedia, which was "don't bother." Certainly tht is the path of least resistance. 2600:8802:1700:3160:18A2:429A:C9B:7969 (talk) 23:25, 4 October 2025 (UTC)

  • I'm going to ping Drmies, who had PRODed it and removed the material [1], before moving further. I couldn't find any significant sources using a very basic, quick look, but the results were kind of mixed with results that don't pertain to the actual organization. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 00:02, 5 October 2025 (UTC)
    Yeah same, I looked around and there does appear to be a group on social media but I was unable to find anything else about them. Dr vulpes (Talk) 17:39, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Unprotection: WP:TRYUNPROT, deceased admin, overprotected. (CC) Tbhotch™ 18:59, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

Not done. No valid reason given for unprotection. Too many page views, not enough watchers for my comfort, but no objection if another admin wants to try PCP as a test. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 01:39, 6 October 2025 (UTC)
Thomas Edison has way more pageviews than the requests I have added and it has showed no issues. But whatever. Thanks for nothing. (CC) Tbhotch™ 05:19, 6 October 2025 (UTC)

Edit requests should be made on the talk page of the protected article. You can create an edit request below only if the talk page is also protected, preventing you from adding a request there.

Otherwise, this is the correct place to use in order to add an edit request if you are unable to add one to the article's talk page. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to properly add a request.

I am returning to request full rights after the three-month trial period expired. During the trial period, I encountered no issues and successfully created many articles to contribute to Women in Red/Missing articles by nationality/Myanmar. Hteiktinhein (talk) 07:53, 25 August 2025 (UTC)

@Hteiktinhein: I notice that you routinely cite YouTube videos. Why is this source from Kyaukthittar Pagoda reliable? voorts (talk/contributions) 01:41, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Voorts Thank you very much for your response. You asked whether the YT reference is reliable. I would say 'yes', because it is a documentary-style storytelling piece from Myanmar Celebrity Media, which is considered Myanmar's largest entertainment media outlet after the 2021 Myanmar coup d'état. Before the coup, they operated a website channel, but now they only operate a YouTube video channel. After the coup, around 90% of entertainment media outlets were shut down, leaving only a few video-based entertainment news sources and other media only focus on the war and political news. I used this video version as a source for Wikipedia because it comes from a verified major media outlet. According to WP:YOUTUBE-EL, "If the source would normally be considered reliable (e.g., a segment from a well-known television news show, or an official video channel from a major publisher), then a copy of the source on YouTube is still considered reliable." Therefore, I sometimes use YouTube sources when needed. Best regards. Hteiktinhein (talk) 04:34, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Do they have editorial standards? An "entertainment" outlet is quite different from news media. voorts (talk/contributions) 04:40, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Voorts I don't think their current website maintains editorial standards... When I checked, the remaining site did not mention any editor's name and only posted event and celebrity photos with very brief descriptions, without detailed news coverage. It seems the current version of their website is mostly for show and not suitable to use as a source for Wikipedia. If someone used it, sure I will remove. However, on their YouTube channel, they provide more detailed reporting and include the interviewer's name in the hashtags. Therefore, I think their place-documentary programs, where they interview or trace origin with local historians or highly venerated monks, are acceptable to use. Hteiktinhein (talk) 05:30, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Since I don't speak/read Burmese, I can't really independently evaluate whether I find the source credible, and I can't really easily research if they had editorial standards in the past. I'll let another admin evaluate your request. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:14, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Anyway, thank you very much for your question and concerns @Voorts. I always welcome feedback or comments from senior editors, and I am eager to learn from others. Please correct me if I am wrong. I really do not want to use YouTube as a source; I only turn to it when there is no other choice (Myanmar is now a low-resource media environment, and it is difficult to find website-based reports bcs all gone [2], [3]). My Wiki mentor once told me that YouTube could be used as a source if the channel is verified and has a media license under the Myanmar government. After learning this, I began to cite videos from YouTube only when they came from licensed media.
If media license–holder outlets that report on notable Burmese celebrities are not considered reliable sources, I am happy to agree with that. I have used YouTube sources in only a few of the articles I created (especially on temple or pagoda topics), and if this is still unclear, I am willing to remove or replace them with other references.
I believe MC (Myanmar Celebrity) is one of the most popular celebrity and entertainment news outlets in Myanmar under license, although its website is now low in editorial standards and seems focused mostly on monetization and viewership (some reports on cele may gossip). The second most popular online outlet is Stun Magazine. To give a sense of MC's influence in Myanmar, as Burmese saying goes: “Someone can become a celebrity if Myanmar Celebrity features them.” Thank you again for reviewing my request. Hteiktinhein (talk) 17:47, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
The issue is that celebrity/gossip outlets tend not to be particularly reliable. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:58, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
I partly agree. Sometimes they report on celebrity conflicts, which feels more like gossip, but most of their reports are focused on celebrity life and news. They also have multiple programs such as travel, documentary, food reviews, daily life, and program of "forgotten celebrities". Some of these are actually very good reports.
For ordinary lifestyle interviews with celebrities, I don't think those should be used as sources because I know they are not independent. But for other local news reports, I think we can consider using them for Wikipedia. In my view, the reliability of such MC sources should be decided on a case-by-case basis at each article's talk page. How do you think? Hteiktinhein (talk) 18:08, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Voorts As of now, MC is a questionable source, and the reliability of that outlet still we cannot be decided. Therefore, removing it is better now, and I have replaced it with another source on Kyaukthittar Pagoda. You can verify again, and if you have any concerns about this, kindly ping me. Thank you. Hteiktinhein (talk) 18:25, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Hteiktinhein Have you used that or similar sources in other articles? voorts (talk/contributions) 18:46, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Voorts I think I used MC only for this article. I’m checking my temple articles, and if I find any, I will replace them. If you notice any, please ping me. Cheers. Hteiktinhein (talk) 18:51, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Voorts I have cleared MC sources from the article. I only found two in my contributions. In the future, I will not use MC since the reliability of that media is not clear at this time. However, if someone else uses it, I think it is best to discuss on the talk page and decide on a case-by-case basis. If you don’t have any further concerns, please review my request again. If there are concerns, I cannot follow up right now...it's already midnight here i now prepare to sleep but I will respond in the morning. Thank you. Hteiktinhein (talk) 19:18, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
@Hteiktinhein: have you used similar gossip/celebrity news sites in any other articles you've written, not just articles about temples. voorts (talk/contributions) 19:35, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
No, there are no more. I checked all my articles quickly with XTools and also cleaned the Media Queen source, the same as MC. Now I believe I have removed all celebrity news channel references from my articles. You can check as well, and if I missed anything, please ping me here. @Voorts Hteiktinhein (talk) 20:02, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Oh, I nearly forgot about my request. I've just checked the discussion again, and there have been no further questions within the past month. As Vroots the admin mentioned above, “let another admin evaluate your request.” So, if there are no more major issues or questions, may I kindly ask you to evaluate my request? If there are, Im happy to address them. Hteiktinhein (talk) 07:24, 28 September 2025 (UTC)
@Hteiktinhein: This is not an easy one to review, given the high degree of non-English sources. Two more requests around sourcing: Could you add in the translations of titles for non-English sources? Not a requirement for AP, but it makes it easier to review your articles. In addition, if you could add page numbers for very long sources, that again makes it clear to show your text is WP:verifiable.
In your article on Pale Yin, you cite a PhD thesis, which is fine. But you do not state the page number. It seems the information is on 158 and 159. But.. the source gives this as an example, not as some generality, whereas you seem to give this as a generality. Could you please adjust?
I'm considering given a longer temporary AP. I tend to give temporary AP when I see somebody growing as an editor, but there are still some minor issues to be worked out with core policies. PERM/AP gives more in-depth feedback than NPP, and NPP isn't great at catching issues with sourcing as above. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 17:11, 28 September 2025 (UTC)
@Femke I've adjusted the page numbers in the sources as you suggested. Occasionally I forget to include them, but I always make sure to provide page numbers for Burmese-language sources whenever they are available. Some books, however, do not display page numbers in their editions. I also generally do not add page numbers for Google Books that are only available in snippet view, since those can be accessed directly through the link. I've also added English-language sources as backups, even though the Burmese sources are already sufficient to support the article. Including English sources helps English-speaking editors better understand the topic. The legends of Burmese nats are mainly found in Burmese-language books and are rarely available in English.
In the past, I did not include translations of titles for non-English sources because it was not strictly required. Following your recommendation, I've started adding translations of titles in the more recent articles I've created. That said, some book titles are difficult to render in English because of their deep literary or poetic meanings.
Please don't worry about the Burmese-language sources. I have a tutor in history with strong knowledge of Burmese, and if you ever need verification or if Google Lens isn't sufficient, you can always ask me or other experienced Burmese editors here on Wikipedia. Thank you again for your helpful suggestions. Hteiktinhein (talk) 17:37, 29 September 2025 (UTC)

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

What makes the Treaty of Southampton notable? voorts (talk/contributions) 21:56, 28 September 2025 (UTC)
@Sswonk voorts (talk/contributions) 22:19, 28 September 2025 (UTC)
@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.

@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.

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! ~

User:Red0ctober22

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.

User:Викидим

I am hereby requesting the page mover privilege. On multiple occasions I had to request uncontroversial moves, as I was not able to move the page myself. Most of these requests were due to WP:NPP and requested after reverting the WP:CUTNPASTE moves by other editors and re-doing the moves properly. Usually I helped the editors to request the move themselves, see, for example User talk:Worvandae#Renaming the page, but on few occasions I had requested the move myself to assist the original editor (see, for example, Talk:Spotsylvania Courthouse, Virginia). Sometimes I needed the move to unscramble the situation in the article I was working on, see, for example, Talk:Iron oxide red#Requested move 13 May 2023. I also create articles in my user space and occasionally need to move them over a redirect, the latest one was User:Викидим/Mikogami.

I do have the corresponding right in Russian Wikipedia. Викидим (talk) 06:17, 13 September 2025 (UTC)

I've recently been helping out in closing RMs and have also participated in some as well. I'm also a NPP, and do a decent amount of draftifying through that process. Having the page move right won't just make closing RMs that require a tech move easier, but it will also allow me to help clear the WP:RMTR backlog. Also, when draftifying, I can reduce the workload on administrators for CSD R2. I'm okay with going on trial if it is found to be necessary. veko.

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.

  1. The editor should be a registered Wikipedia user for at least 6 months. checkY (11/8 months)
  2. The editor should have at least 3,000 edits. checkY (2438+1230=3668)
  3. 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. checkY
  4. The editor should have no behavioral blocks or 3RR violations in the 6 months prior to application. checkY

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

I have over 500 edits patrolling Recent Changes for vandalism. This permission would be great as I would love to help the process of reviewing pending changes. I am familiar with all policies, WP:NPOV, WP:NOT etc.

I'd like permission so that I can help out when things come up. I tend to use Wikipedia in relation to current events, so I may be able to offer some assistance related to these issues. austiñobobbiño (talk) 12:02, 24 September 2025 (UTC)

I have been editing Wikipedia almost daily for a while now and have made over 500 edits, mostly patrolling the recent changes on Wikipedia to revert vandalism and improve article quality. I often edit a range of topics that interest me and take the time to investigate the information I add and edit.

I used to struggle with copyright laws for uploading images to Wikipedia, specifically WP:NFCC. I have sinced learned from my mistakes and intend to do better moving forward.

This permission would allow me to help review edits without burdening the other more experienced volunteers, and I would help to ensure that new edits meet Wikipedia's values. WhatADrag07 (talk) 00:13, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

I regularly review edits on a variety of articles, particularly in topics related to music, sports, Nepal and also from Special:AbuseLog . I often check for sourcing, formatting, and promotional content, and I’m familiar with policies such as WP:V, WP:NPOV, and WP:BLP. Having PCR perm would allow me to help ensure that constructive edits are approved promptly and unconstructive ones are filtered efficiently. Khagendrawiki (talk) 09:08, 5 October 2025 (UTC)

I've been RC patrolling for a few years now, requesting rollback right so I can fight vandalism more effectively and use the anti-vandal tools that require it. 『π』BalaM314〘talk〙 13:43, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I've been doing recent changes patrolling on a regular basis, and asking for rollbacking rights to increase my effeciency on my counter-vandalism efforts. I meet all the prerequisites mentioned in the instructions. Krsnaquli (🙏) 17:21, 11 September 2025 (UTC)

User:Somepinkdude

edit

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.

User:SeanBeans1981

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)

Hello SeanBeans1981, you have never used the "undo" link next to someone else's edit yet ([9]), 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)

Hello, I am requesting rollback permissions so I can use some other tools that will make it a lot faster to revert vandalism. Currently I just click diffs on recent changes, which isn't exactly the fastest. Thank you, CardboardLamp (TC) 00:55, 29 September 2025 (UTC)

User:UpTheOctave!

edit

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. Thanks, UpTheOctave! • 8va? 20:51, 29 September 2025 (UTC)

Hi. I have been patrolling recent changes for a while and I would like to request the rollback permission. Most of my edits since I signed up have been undos and reverts, and I have already been using Ultraviolet for a while. I have read the guidelines and I understand when I'm supposed to use rollback. Thanks. Crushcrushcrush1 (talk) 11:48, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

To help mass revert any vandalism on Singapore MRT pages, especially if it's an IP/vandal. I usually oversee these articles.--ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 07:19, 3 October 2025 (UTC) ZKang123 (talk · contribs) 07:19, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

I second this as someone who works on MRT articles. Kawasaki Heavy Industries C151 was nearly demoted of its GA status as it accumulated unsourced content/vandalism. Icepinner 11:37, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

Earlier this year I had attempted to obtain this permission, which ultimately triggered action on my template edit requests. I am once again asking for the permission, only this time I've waited a month to see if my request would be acted upon. I am particularly interested in sports-related templates. poketape (talk) 04:06, 26 September 2025 (UTC)

Previous review from April. #5: Sandboxes is a Red XN (2), #6: TPER is Green tickY (6). The discrepancy is mainly because poketape has really only sandboxed two (related) protected templates. Primefac (talk) 00:32, 4 October 2025 (UTC)
