  • Street Knowledge Staggers (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a promotional username. See Special:Diff/1321380623. Nil🥝 05:19, 10 November 2025 (UTC)
    Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Apparently it's a stage name or personal username, and "Staggers" is the surname according to that diff. Report at WP:AIV if promotional edits continue. ~Anachronist (who / me) (talk) 05:22, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

    45dogs, what is your evidence that this account is impersonating Hadnagy as opposed to actually being Hadnagy? A person cannot impersonate themself. Cullen328 (talk) 08:02, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    See WP:REALNAME - the onus is on the account holder to prove they ARE the person in question, not the reporter to provide evidence that they are not. WaggersTALK 08:57, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    Waggers, I beg to differ. The username policy imposes no mandatory "onus" on editors to prove that their name is what they say it is. Where's that language? The wording used about blocking is "may" not "must". Real names are permitted. Impersonation is not. Lacking even the slightest indication of impersonation, I think that is an error to block an account. There may well be conflict of interest issues, but COI is not a username violation. Cullen328 (talk) 09:13, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    Blocking is preventative not punitive. The convention is to block accounts that might be impersonating a famous person until we are reasonably sure they are not. WaggersTALK 09:27, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    I do not accept that "convention" in the absence of any evidence or even a hint of impersonation, and I believe that "convention" you mention is not grounded in policy. By that reasoning, I could block any account that I think "might" cause disruption. Cullen328 (talk) 10:00, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    Waggers, at the top of this very page, it says Real names are permitted, except when the editor implies they are someone other than themselves, such as impersonating a notable living person. Cullen328 (talk) 10:05, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    Nobody's disputing that WaggersTALK 11:46, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    I'm not looking for an argument, I'm just pointing out that most administrators would block an account reported here that carries the name of a famous real life person and has interacted with the article about that person (as this one has) without any assurance they really are that person WaggersTALK 11:48, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
    Completely agree with Waggers here. I'm quite surprised this is being disputed. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 11:52, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level

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

Before posting a request for unprotection, 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:

Request to allow draft recreation: Danny Lauter Hello, I would like to request temporary unprotection of Draft:Danny Lauter so that I can recreate the page in draft space following Wikipedia notability and sourcing standards.

The previous deletions occurred before significant independent coverage was available. Since then, there have been new independent articles and media coverage (I can provide sources). The new version will be fully cited, neutral, and based only on reliable sources.

Thank you for considering an unprotection or administrator-assisted recreation in draft space.

~2025-32618-95 (talk) 14:01, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

@~2025-32618-95: forgive me if I'm mistaken, but I think you can also create a draft in your own userspace. Like so: User:~2025-32618-95/Danny Lauter. You can also create an account, and then post the content on your User: page. Good luck, Manifestation (talk) 16:47, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

[edit]
Request a specific edit be made to a protected page
Please add an edit request to the talk page of the protected page before adding an edit request here

Requests for specific edits 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.

Autopatrolled

[edit]

Hello! I formally request the autopatrolled user right. I'm a regular user of Wikipedia, both in English and Spanish, and I consider that, after so many years and hundreds of articles created on both wikis, i am in the position to say that I know the rules and styles. I've never cared much about user rights, but now that I've started a personal project (ambassadors of Spain and all its lists) to expand diplomatic information about my country, Spain, I'd like to avoid the workload that comes with reviewing articles that comply with our rules. Thank you. TheRichic (Messages here) 11:12, 14 October 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for the feedback! I’ve always trended toward direct quotes to avoid concerns for original research, but I can make an effort to paraphrase more in the future while still citing the original source. I’ll also try to be more mindful of WP:SAID. I thought I was doing fairly well with this, but I am always open to feedback particularly if you have specific suggestions relating to recent articles.

 Automated comment This user was granted temporary new page reviewer rights by Rosguill (expires 00:00, 10 November 2025 (UTC)). MusikBot talk 23:30, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

I am interested in being granted the new page reviewer right. I have an extensive history of editing on Wikipedia, having created over two dozen well-sourced articles on a variety of topics, as well as expanding and improving stubs and starts to C class at least. I also regularly review citations to verify them when it seems appropriate, including recently acquiring an EPUB edition of a book for one article. I have come upon a few articles recently that havent been reviewed yet, and it would be useful to help get those squared away. I frequently work with other editors to develop a consensus where everyone is satisfied, particularly but not only in contentious areas. And I enjoy helping to guide newer users on how to construct a good quality article. I am also deeply anti-LLM so I will be on the lookout for such junk. With this right, I would continue to verify and improve citations, etc. Sadly, there is a seemingly limitless supply of poorly cited legacy and newer articles. ← Metallurgist (talk) 22:40, 5 November 2025 (UTC)

Given the articles I have created/contributed to on Wikipedia, I would like to have access to review new articles, and believe I could contribute to expanding the new articles, finding citations, fixing tone, etc. KyleSirTalksAlot (talk) 04:44, 7 November 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) Hi @Theknoledgeableperson! It's excellent you want to help tackle the backlog, especially as a very new editor! Even though your ambitions are great, there is quite a bit of experience that is required before this permission is granted. I would recommend participating at Articles for Deletion, leaving some !votes and getting familiar with policies and guidelines, particularly those relating to reliable sources. You could also check out Articles for Creation and either submit some articles you've written and researched, or apply to review some further down the road! Wishing you the best, and happy editing! 11WB (talk) 11:39, 11 November 2025 (UTC)

I've been editing Wikipedia for about 7 months now, and made just under 500 edits. While sometimes I make mistakes, I learn from them and try to be as understanding as possible.

Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights I have been on here for six months now, and recently also joined the simple Wikipedia. Have had 2 declined rollback requests in July and August but have since then, I now officially fully understand the basics of Wikipedia and how to edit, only issue I have had with my editing lately was an accidental page blanking I did due to page-move vandalism and failed move-back about a month ago, but have 2000 additional edits since then (4,100 total). I recently came across one article I was editing (Seth Curry) where the issue of not being a PC-reviewer took full effect, so I am requesting to be a PC reviewer, especially as some "Likely Have Problems" pending edits I have seen in the recent changes have actually been good.

Rollback

I've been patrolling recent changes for over six months, and I feel like I now have enough experience dealing with vandalism (and other forms of disruptive editing) to be able to make useful contributions in this area with the additional technical abilities and access to tools granted through the rollback perm.
