Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – No constructive IP edits since 2021 but weekly vandalism/gibberish. Was protected in the past for this reason but protection expired. This is unlikely to ever stop because it's the kind of page title that attracts this. Un assiolo (talk) 18:22, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – After consensus was reached on the Talk page, IPs continue to make aggressive edits against that consensus. Anwegmann (talk) 20:08, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 20:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection:BLP policy violations – Bizarre quote-mining and WP:NPOV violations that started showing up as soon as the last semiprotection expired. Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 21:33, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
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.
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.
I would like to request that... (I request to reduce the protection of the page. I would like to update quite a bit of content with references. I've posted on the talk page about updating a whole section attaching official references and no one seems to notice it. I think vandalism protection was increased but it's been a stable page for over a month now.). Panenkazo (talk) 16:03, 11 July 2024 (UTC){Moved from /Edit. I take no opinion on the merits of this request.) —Jéské Courianov^_^vthreadscritiques 16:06, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
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.
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.
On 12 June 2024, an early-morning fire broke out at a residential building in Mangaf in Kuwait's Ahmadi Governorate housing 196 male migrant workers of NBTC Group, killing 49 migrant workers, at least 46 of whom were from India, and injuring around 50 others. Most victims died of smoke inhalation, while others were fatally injured from falling. The building's owner was arrested in the wake of the fire. 37.34.139.140 (talk) 12:11, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I have created 100+ articles, primarily focused on television series. And I plan to keep doing the same. Thanks for your consideration C1K98V(💬✒️📂) 08:51, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Not done In the past month, a page you created has been deleted as a hoax, and another deleted with a clear copyright violation. I think you need a little more distance and editing experience away from those issues before autopatrolled can be granted. —Ganesha811 (talk) 19:50, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello there, I have created 67 articles as of now and i am requesting for Autopatrolled right. AjayDas (talk) 15:39, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
Anyone please see AjayDas's request. FightStranger (talk) 09:19, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
@AjayDas: With your last 25 creations taking us back to October 2020, I don't think there is a pressing need for them to be autopatrolled. Not done – Joe (talk) 09:30, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I’m Chidera with username Dera xoxo. My Reason for requesting extended confirmed rights is that I want to contest for the WPWP campaign but I can’t do so on English Wikipedia because I don’t have up to 500 edits on English Wikipedia. I do have more than 500 edits on Igbo Wikipedia and I am very familiar with adding pictures on Wikipedia pages, I’ve done this on both IG Wikipedia and En Wikipedia. I can’t join the WPWPIG campaign because the IG list has so much traffic for the past 3 days so I haven’t been able to access it so I want to join the WPWPNG campaign and contribute to English Wikipedia. I know almost all requests made are declined but I’d really hope you look into this and grant me access since I’m an experienced editor who would love to join the WPWP Campaign. Thank you! Dera xoxo (talk) 18:12, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
Not done. Whilst I understand that you have over 500 edits on other wikis, extended confirmed rights are for those who have over 500 edits on the English Wikipedia. When your account reaches 500 edits on the English Wikipedia, you will automatically obtain the right. — Red-tailed hawk(nest) 18:15, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

I have more than 6000 edits as an editor over a time period of around 3 years. I have created several pages which I continue to maintain and have participated in processes like Request for moves and closures as well. Iv taken initiative in Anti-Vandalism work. I can help reduce the backlog. >>> Extorc.talk 14:00, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
I’ve reviewed pages on the new pages feed. In fact, I have sometimes CSD or redirected (because it’s a duplicate article) before NPRs, please consider me. 48JCL 12:44, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
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)
Hi. I would like to request an extension of my temporary NPP rights. Though I haven't been as active as I expected, I still reviewed some articles and participated in the May drive (thanks for the barnstar).

I was given a two-moth extension about two months ago, and I wanted to apply now for full-time approval to be a new page reviewer. I have been active in AfDs, and, as suggested in my temporary approval last time, I have reviewed many more pages than the first two months of my reviewership. All of the AfDs I have created have spawned genuine discussion, and I have also approved several new pages that pass the standards of WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. I feel as though I have done enough to earn full-time approval, but I would appreciate any approval the admins are willing to give. I enjoy this work, and I enjoy helping clean up Wikipedia. Thank you for your consideration. Anwegmann (talk) 00:08, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

I have been a long-time editor on this site for 7 years with lots of experience creating articles and participating in AfD discussions. I plan to use this permission to help clear the backlog and provide feedback to editors for their new articles, regardless of whether their article is notable or not.

I have experience in creating new articles, AFD, and CSD. In addition, I am aware of meeting WP:MOS and WP:N. I am interested in helping out the very large articles backlog. Also, I got an invitation to apply last year. Lastly, I am a very experienced Wikipedia editor. — YoungForever(talk) 14:02, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
Done Granted for a 3-month trial. Please request permanent permission and ping me in 3 months if the trial is successful and you would like to keep the right. Thanks for volunteering and happy editing! —Ganesha811 (talk) 19:41, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
I've had previous experience, had it on trial period for a month during the back-drive, and I feel like I can especially do more. Noorullah (talk) 11:14, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
I have made over 3.4k edits over a span of 4 years, have made over 87 different articles, and participate actively in AfD discussions (I'm not sure of the exact number, but its' over ten.)

About a month ago, I was alloted Autopatroller rights, which was a big step in my Wikipedia work. I have worked hard to make sure my pages meet Wikipedia's standards for accuracy, neutrality, and quality. Drawing from my experience and advise from Just Step Sideways, I am requesting to assess my credentials for New Page Patroller rights on Wikipedia. Charlie (talk) 16:25, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
Done, for the usual two month trial. After that please make a new request so we can make it permanent. Thanks for helping out. – Joe (talk) 06:31, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

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)
This user right will be super useful to me for moving unsuitable articles to draft space (eliminating the need to tag the resulting redirect with R2), dealing with articles created by new users in the wrong namespace (that I come across a lot as a vandalism patroller), and performing a round-robin move on two pages (that I try to fix occasionally when an editor copy-pastes an article). I've familiarized myself with the guidelines for moving and the article title policy. Ae245 (talk) 08:05, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
(Non-admin comment) @Ae245: If you use User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft, it will automatically tag the redirect for deletion, along with other things like notifying the creator of the article per WP:DRAFTIFY and warning you when the article was last edited in the past hour, such that it shouldn't be draftified yet per WP:NPPHOUR/WP:DRAFTNO.

I've been actively editing in different topic areas (mainly politics/civics) on Wikipedia for a few years and have created some new article pages.
In this time I have gained a strong understanding of Wikipedia guidelines and would like to apply that to review edits to articles to identify vandalism / inappropriate edits. CrazyPredictor (talk) 01:30, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
Hello! I'm S-Aura.
I've been editing Wikipedia for a few years. I've added new articles and learned how Wikipedia works. I'm good at finding mistakes and fixing them.
Now, I want to help review edits to make sure the information on Wikipedia is correct and reliable. I think it's important for people to have access to accurate information, and I want to help make that happen.
I would like to help out reviewing edits before it is published as an live article. I do have good experience. I am aware that statements must be sourced, and I know what is considered nonsense.Cwater1 (talk) 18:50, 11 July 2024 (UTC) Cwater1 (talk) 18:50, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Good day! I am requesting rollback rights to speed up the process of reviewing recent changes. I meet the mainspace edit count requirement and have been patrolling recent changes for over month. My track record of reviewing shows that I can quickly and effectively differentiate between vandalism and good faith contributions. Thank you. Garsh (talk) 17:39, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
I am requesting rollback rights after making regular efforts towards combatting vandalism and disruptive editing. After previous denial, I sent messages in the users talk page multiple times as norms. Hope, the rollback permission able me enough to fight against vandalism edits on Wikipedia. Pinakpani (talk) 07:22, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 08:04, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
Hi there! Requesting rollback rights to be able to use different tools for reverting vandalism. I'm open to any questions or feedback on my editing and counter-vandalism actions. Cheers. Rkieferbaum (talk) 11:34, 10 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 06:21, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
@Fastily: hi there. It's true that I seldom warn IP users that don't edit on a regular basis. I just feel like no one is going to see that warning and it might be confusing for other users from that IP. This might be a mistake on my part and I'll gladly fix it. You'll see that, with registered users, I've warned them 100% of the time or very close to that. Thanks for your time. Rkieferbaum (talk) 10:59, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

I am heavily involved with editing route diagram templates and adding new items to template:rail-interchange, with a special focus on rail lines in France for the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris starting later this month. I have made multiple edit requests there in the past, and very recently after refamiliarizing myself with the process, I've started to do it again. I would like the ability to edit that template directly so I don't have to rely on others to do it for me. Jackdude101talkcont 07:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
