WP:PERM

Requests for autopatrolled

Autopatrolled

Requested this permission ~2 months ago, denied because I was mostly creating auto-notable stubs. I think I have expanded the types of articles I create, including well-sourced local pages or biographical entries where I take time to source subjects that do not inherently meet a generic notability criteria. (I still do create auto-notable pages sometimes, but those no longer make up the majority of pages I create.) As a new page reviewer, I got good experience with the notability guidelines reviewing articles during the backlog drive WP:MAY25, and also participating in AfD. Thought about requesting again as I have run into a few of my own pages while reviewing pages that are in topics I contribute to/am interested in. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:15, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

Also wanted to mention that if I am unsure of a subject's notability, I will utilize WP:AFC for my own articles occasionally Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:18, 28 June 2025 (UTC)

Came here to request this permission for a different user, but since Yoblyblob is referencing their WP:MAY25 NPP work, it is worth noting that among the re-reviews of each patroller's work, 14/17 of their patrol decisions were approved. Of the remainder, two were drafted/redirected as WP:TOOSOON coverage of 2026 state elections and one was drafted for lacking enough coverage to qualify under WP:NEVENT. Considering they were the fifth most active patroller of the drive, this accuracy is good, not great. ViridianPenguin🐧 (💬) 19:20, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

I have been on Wikipedia for more than a decade, and I truly feel that it is one of my great passions in life. I have more than 30,000 edits, and I am credited with more than 300 articles that are not Redirects or Disambiguation pages. (I personally take credit for more than 100 of these, which did not originate as Redirect pages.) Although I continue to propose Draft pages to this day when I am not 100% confident myself about notability, I frequently go straight to the mainspace and have made a number of articles that have been significant in some form or field, with my particular focus being on film industry and electoral politics pages.

Recently, I redirected a few thousand Supreme Court of the United States cases to the case volumes in which they were listed. It was a large-scale project for me, but in the end it was decided that redlinks would be better for promoting caseload knowledge, something that I agreed to and I believe will continue to service our Wikipedia community. For this reason, it might appear that I have a large number of deleted pages, but this is almost exclusively due to this particular project; I had an edit deletion rate of less than 2%, and I had not had a page that I created taken down in years, not since I was a far more novice editor. (You can read more about that SCOTUS discussion here.)

I believe that being autopatrolled will continue to allow me to contribute to the Wikipedia community, and that is why I am reaching out to ask for permissions. I am happy to answer any questions or improve any articles that I have created if there is anything noticeable that needs help. Although I have long been looking to increase my permissions and role in the community, I quite frankly have always had impostor syndrome stop me from asking, but a bit of encouragement from Liz made me try. Thank you so much! PickleG13 (talk) 20:27, 5 July 2025 (UTC)

I'm not inclined to grant autopatrolled so soon after the SCOTUS redirect deletions, but won't object if another admin wants to grant it. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:51, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
Thank you for your honest feedback, voorts. Although I hope that an admin decides to grant it, I have been on Wikipedia for a long time and I will continue to for a long time to come no matter what. Please let me know if you ever need help with anything, whether it's a full-scale project or a simple clean-up. PickleG13 (talk) 21:47, 10 July 2025 (UTC)

I have created over 25 new articles that meet notability guidelines and follow Wikipedia standards and guideliness. I am familiar with Wikipedia’s core content policies (NPOV, V, NOR) and believe that being autopatrolled will reduce the workload on new page patrollers, my ittention for contributing to Wikipedia, i have mention to my talk page, also to be noted i am reviewer and patroller at Albanian wiki with all articles, neither deleted, and noone of edits are reverted. Thank you in advance. Lanceloth345 (talk) 12:43, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

Hey Lanceloth345, could you comment on why Petrit Malaj was deleted a few weeks ago, and what you improved when you recreated it? (Courtesy ping for Sphilbrick, who deleted under CSD G12.) Similarlly with Gjesti, which is currently in draftspace. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 13:08, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
Page Petrit Malaj was recreated again in neutral way + more sources, becouse first version had some words "sounding" not neutral at all, (my fault) as per draft:Gjesti lacking notability it's under review but explained at talk page of draft page reasons why he is notable ect. (also partecipating other editor in discussion). Lanceloth345 (talk) 13:13, 16 July 2025 (UTC)

Been an active user for a few years, created 25+ articles with the only two deletions being mistakenly created redirects (due to a script error). Multiple GAs and FLs. I understand enwiki notability guidelines thoroughly.ULPS (talkcontribs) 22:51, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Support! Low article creation activity in the trailing year, but I'm somewhat familiar with ULPS's work, and would consider him trustworthy enough for autopatrolled. Spot-checks for copyright concerns and sourcing turn up no issues. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:45, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

As part of the Women in Red project, I create pages about women by translating, adapting, and improving articles from the Spanish Wikipedia. Onatic (talk) 21:00, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Slightly below the recommended 25 creations before nomination, but this editor has a track record of writing quality content that I don't believe NPP needs to continue reviewing. No issues found spot-checking their recent creations. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:26, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

 Automated comment This user has created roughly 21 articles. MusikBot talk 21:31, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Demonstrates understanding of the notability guidelines on a variety of subjects. The articles are fairly well-written and -formatted; a few are also now GAs. I marked a couple of her newer creations as reviewed and found no major issues. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:31, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

I have created more than 25 non redirect articles within the past few weeks and 53 non redirects overall. The two mainspace ones that have been deleted were by my own request, thanks to a slip of the "Publish changes" button. Aside from those, all have been approved by the adminteam. I would greatly be thankful to receive this permission. Luxtaythe2nd (Talk to me...) 17:56, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

I have created over 650 new articles and hope to continue contributing to Wikipedia and knowledge sharing. TinaLees-Jones (talk) 03:38, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello,

I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I have created around 30 well-sourced, policy-compliant articles on the English Wikipedia.

In addition to my contributions here, I am an administrator (sysop) on the Persian Wikipedia (fa.wikipedia), where I have been active for many years, focusing on content creation, vandalism control, and community support.

Granting this right would help reduce the workload of new page patrollers, as my article creations usually meet Wikipedia’s quality standards.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Hello,

I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I’ve created several articles, many of which are currently live and meet Wikipedia’s guidelines on notability and reliable sourcing.

I’m familiar with the key content policies such as WP:N, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:NPOV, and consistently apply them when creating or editing articles.

I understand that this permission is intended to reduce the workload of new page reviewers by marking trusted users’ pages as reviewed automatically, and I believe my contributions demonstrate the consistency and policy alignment expected for this role.

I have not received any blocks or serious warnings, and I’m committed to continuing constructive, policy-compliant editing.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Sweetabena (talk) 23:39, 28 July 2025 (UTC)

As a part of Wikipedia: Tambayan Philippines and the Music Task Force, I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I have created over 25 articles, most of which are currently live and have been built with careful attention to WP:N, WP:V, and reliable sourcing. And also I understand that the autopatrolled right is meant to ease the workload of new page reviewrs by automatically marking new pages from trusted users as reviewed. Thank you!

Requests for new page reviewer

New page reviewer

Hi, I’m re-applying for NPP permission after a three-month trial. I haven’t been a super prolific reviewer (90 articles + 38 redirects) but I’ve also done more content creation, de-stubbing, and AfD which I hope also helps demonstrate my understanding of the key principles. I’ve found NPP quite rewarding and would love to continue working. Zzz plant (talk) 21:15, 21 July 2025 (UTC)

I am requesting for this permission to help address the backlog of unreviewed pages and to ensure the quality of new content submitted uses encyclopedic language and that the content is accurate and neutral. I have participated in hundreds of AfDs and during that time I have developed a solid understanding of WP:GNG, RS requirements (WP:SIGCOV), and other relevant policies for reviewing pages. Gjb0zWxOb (talk) 21:23, 23 July 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions and your interest in this permission. Reviewing your recent contributions, however, I'm concerned that War on Crypto and the attendant page move discussion demonstrates a weak understanding of WP:TITLE. I'm also doubtful of some other editorial decisions, such as having an entire section on "Views on Bitcoin" in Lyn Alden.  Not done signed, Rosguill talk 19:43, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
Hello, isn't this decision usually determined by a more objective set of criteria than only the subject matter content of the edits? This seems subjective to me and is based on the topics I am interested in and good faith disagreements between me and other parties made on that matter rather than being made strictly on policy. Given my AfD history, I clearly understand what makes a notable, reliable page and what does not.
Would it be possible for another admin to look at my AfD history among other factors to consider if I am eligible for this perm? Gjb0zWxOb (talk) 12:18, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
I think that War on Crypto is a pretty clear-cut misapplication of WP:TITLE. By contrast, War on crypto would have been defensible in my evaluation, but that's not the title you chose. signed, Rosguill talk 18:04, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
No issue with this improvement. The page move has already been completed to now be titled "War on crypto" Gjb0zWxOb (talk) 16:18, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
I've undone this move, as the ongoing RM should be allowed to unfold and followed. Zanahary 16:26, 29 July 2025 (UTC)
Please revert it back to War on crypto, I agreed with concerns about the capital “C” in “Crypto.” Then we can still discuss which title is best. Gjb0zWxOb (talk) 17:07, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

I received notification that my NPP rights will expire on July 26, 2025. If you believe I have performed satisfactorily during my NPP probationary period. Please renew my position as an NPP reviewer. Thank you. Bakhtar40 (talk) 09:27, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

I specialize in reviewing articles with Kannada, English and Hindi-language sources, which often face prolonged backlogs due to limited reviewer availability. My fluency in these languages enables me to: • Verify sources that others might skip due to language barriers • Improve coverage of South Asian topics • Guide new editors working with regional references Having participated extensively in AFD and AFC processes, I understand enwiki's notability standards. I'm particularly motivated to clear the bottleneck for Indic-language articles that deserve timely review. Editorrking (talk) 13:15, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

I've been involved in WP for a long time now, with a very clean record. I've used AWB and other tools previously, and also previously patrolled new pages. I'm starting to want to combine more administrative/cleanup tasks with those of my usual article creation, and have noticed the backlog of new pages. I've got a strong grasp of WP policies, the AFD, CSD, etc processes, and talkpage rating, categorising, etc, and will be able to put these to good use reviewing and improving new articles.

Requests for page mover

Page mover

Mainly requesting so I can bold move pages to multi-revision redirects, but I may cautiously move into closing RMs one day. I think I have decent experience from participating at WP:RMC and understand the guidelines reasonably well. Thanks, Kowal2701 (talk) 10:58, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Some recent examples where I had to start an RM where I would have bold moved are Talk:Caliphate of Hamdullahi#Requested move 15 July 2025 and Talk:Amina, Queen of Zazzau#Requested move 24 July 2025 (ongoing) Kowal2701 (talk) 11:09, 25 July 2025 (UTC)
Technically, if you would normally have bold moved a page (uncontroversial, do not expect opposition) but couldn't for technical reasons, WP:RM/TR would be the better way to do it since it avoids the 7 day listing period of a full RM. This is not a comment on the actual merits of granting or not granting though, which I'll leave to the patrolling admins. Alpha3031 (tc) 19:02, 29 July 2025 (UTC)

I've been involved in a few page swaps recently following move requests - however, I've been unable to complete them due to the default permissions leaving behind redirects, which is undesirable when swapping pages.

 Not done I don't think you have enough experience for this yet; you have only two RMTR requests, relatively low RM participation, and only 13 total uses of the move tool.

Rollback

Hello, I'd like to get rollback rights to fight vandalism more effectively. While I don't patrol recent pages often, I do patrol new pages and short pages, where I frequently undo obvious vandalism (as seen in [2]).
