    Requests for permissions
    Shortcuts

    This page enables administrators to handle requests for permissions on the English Wikipedia. Administrators are able to modify account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, file mover, extended confirmed, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback, and template editor rights, and AutoWikiBrowser access.

    Editors wishing to request a permission flag here should do so following the procedure below. Editors requesting permissions are advised to periodically revisit the requests page, as notifications will not always be given after a decision is made. Editors should not expect their request to be answered right away and should remember to be patient when filing a request. To find out what permissions your account has, go to Special:Preferences, where your permissions are listed in the user profile tab under "Member of groups".

    Requests for permissions are archived regularly; please see Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Archive for an index of past requests.

    Permissions

    Handled here

    • Account creator (add request · view requests): The account creator flag is granted to users who are active in the request an account process. The flag removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24 hour period. It also allows users to make accounts with names similar to other accounts. The account creator flag is only given to users who participate in the ACC process and may be removed without notice should a user's participation in the account creation process cease.
    • Autopatrolled (add request · view requests): The autopatrolled flag is granted to users who are active in the creation of new articles. This tool is granted so their creations are auto patrolled in Special:NewPages. Unlike other requests, any user may nominate an editor for Autopatrolled, even without that user's consent. A user who wishes to have this flag generally should have created at least 25 articles and must be trusted, experienced, and must have demonstrated they are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, especially WP:BLP and Wikipedia:Notability.
    • AutoWikiBrowser (add request · view requests): AutoWikiBrowser is a semi-automated MediaWiki editor for Microsoft Windows, designed to make tedious repetitive tasks quicker and easier. It is essentially a browser that automatically opens up a new page when the last is saved. When set to do so, it suggests some changes (typically formatting) that are generally meant to be incidental to the main change. Please read the rules of use and registration requirements on the main page before requesting permission. This is not a true user right, but access needs to be granted by administrators just like other permissions. If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. Users with under 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits are rarely approved. You will need to give a reason for wanting AWB access.
    • Confirmed (add request · view requests): The confirmed flag may be granted to new users who have not yet hit the threshold for autoconfirmed status. These are users who have not had both 10 edits and 4 days experience. People with this flag can upload files and edit semi-protected pages before hitting the autoconfirmed flag. Users requesting this flag must indicate clearly why they should be exempted from the customary confirmation period.
    • Event coordinator (add request · view requests): The event coordinator user right allows editors to create multiple new accounts, and to temporarily confirm accounts so that they can create new articles.
    • Extended confirmed (add request · view requests): The extended confirmed flag is normally automatically added to accounts after 500 edits and 30 days, but may be added to legitimate alternate accounts of users that already have this access. The flag allows users to edit pages under extended confirmed protection.
    • File mover (add request · view requests): The file mover user right is intended to allow users experienced in working with files to rename them, subject to policy, with the ease that autoconfirmed users already enjoy when renaming Wikipedia articles.
    • Mass message sender (add request · view requests): Mass message sender enables users to send messages to multiple users at once. This flag is given to users who have made requests for delivery in the past, clearly showing an understanding of the guidance for use.
    • New page reviewer (add request · view requests): The new page reviewer user right allows users to mark pages as patrolled and use the page curation toolbar. At administrators' discretion, the right may be accorded on a time limited basis or indefinite.
    • Page mover (add request · view requests): The page mover user right allows users experienced in working with article names to move them, subject to policy, without leaving behind a redirect. They may also move all subpages when moving the parent page(s). General guidelines include making 3,000 edits and 6 months of editing history. At administrators' discretion, the right may be accorded on a time limited basis or indefinite.
    • Pending changes reviewer (add request · view requests): The reviewer flag is granted to users who are experienced enough with Wikipedia editing and its policies for contributing to the process of reviewing articles placed under pending changes.
    • Rollback (add request · view requests): Rollback enables users to remove vandalism much more quickly and efficiently than by undoing it. Users who do not demonstrate an understanding of what constitutes capable vandalism fighting, either because they have no or little history of doing so, or show a poor ability to discern between good and bad faith edits will not be granted this right. Also, it is unlikely that editors with under 200 mainspace edits will have their request granted. For a more detailed explanation of rollback and information about when it is appropriate to use the tool, see Wikipedia:Rollback. For information about the technical details of the feature, see here.
    • Template editor (add request · view requests): The template editor flag allows users to edit protected templates and Lua modules. General guidelines for granting include making at least 1,000 edits overall (with at least 150 to templates or modules), being a registered user for over a year, and having a record of successfully proposing significant edits to several protected templates. Users should demonstrate proficiency with template syntax and an understanding of the need for caution when editing heavily-used templates.

    Handled elsewhere

    Several permissions are requested and handled elsewhere:

    Review and removal of permissions

    The requests for permissions process is not used to review or remove user rights:

    The bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight permissions are removed at meta:Steward requests/Permissions. Stewards will typically not carry out such requests unless they are made on behalf of the Arbitration Committee, by a user who is requesting their own access be removed, or in cases of an emergency.

    Process

    Requestors

    To make a request for a permission, click "add request" next to the appropriate header and fill in the reason for wanting permission.

    Administrators

    Full instructions at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Administrator instructions

    Administrators are permitted to grant account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, event coordinator, file mover, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback and template editor flags to any user who meets the criteria explained above and can be trusted not to abuse the tool(s). Administrators may either grant these permissions permanently or temporarily. For convenience, a bot will automatically comment with relevant data if the user does not meet configurable qualifications. Even if the bot does not comment, administrators should review the user's contributions and logs to ensure the tools will be used appropriately and check for any indication of potential misuse.

    Once an administrator has granted a permission or decided to deny a request, they should add {{done}} or {{not done}} respectively under the request with their comments. If a user already has the requested permission, or is autoconfirmed and requesting confirmed, {{already done}} should be used. N hours after the last comment was made (as specified by the config), the request will be archived automatically: approved requests will be placed here; declined requests will go here. See User:MusikBot/PermClerk#Archiving for more information on archiving functionality.

    Other editors

    Requests for permissions is primarily intended for editors requesting a permission for their own account. Other editors are welcome to comment if they have specific information that is relevant to that request that a patrolling administrator is unlikely to discover for themselves. Otherwise, since only administrators can effectively respond to these requests, general comments or 'clerking' by other users are rarely helpful. Non-administrators cannot "decline" to grant a request, because they're not in a position to accept it.

    A limited exception to this is Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled, where third party nominations are encouraged. Other editors should still avoid offering general remarks on requests and leave the final decision to an administrator.

    User:Yoblyblob

    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.

    Hello there, my respect to you! I would like to request for getting autopatrolled rights because I contribute interesting articles to both English and Simple Wikipedia. I have over 700 edits, which is over the requirements, and my account is over 3 months old. If I get autopatrolled rights, I will never forget this appreciation I got and I will continue contributing to Wikipedia, and I will also continue to take responsibilities for my actions. Thanks! Waiting for a feedback. :-) Victor Ningthemcha (talk) 13:06, 5 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:PickleG13

    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)[reply]

    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)[reply]
    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)[reply]

    Hello, I would like to request Autopatrolled rights for my account. I've made 74 articles, mostly BLPs. None of my articles have been deleted, and all are above stub-class. I have also recently had two DYK hooks approved and I make sure to create talk pages for my articles. I hope to cut down on the NPP backlog as I continue to create. 24Anonymous (talk) 03:20, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Which three sources cited in the article establish that Grace Gordon (soccer) is notable? voorts (talk/contributions) 23:28, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    The Mainline Times & Suburban article, the PA Prep Live article (which differs from the previous one with a new interview) and the O'Colly article. While I recognized that the O'Colly's independence might be questionable due to its connection with Oklahoma State University, I betted on the multiple articles (2, 3) written by the website to prove WP:GNG. I also do feel comfortable utilizing Articles for creation when I feel that notability might be a bit less concrete, as I have for Taylor Hansen and, more recently, Darielle O'Brien. 24Anonymous (talk) 23:51, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    After some reflection, I am choosing to withdraw my application at this time. It was a rather impulsive decision and I think I will give myself some more time before trying to obtain Autopatrolled in the future. I apologize for any inconveniences caused. :: Request withdrawn 24Anonymous (talk) 23:10, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:ArtemisiaGentileschiFan

    Regular article creator and Did you know? contributor who demonstrates understanding of the notability guidelines on a number of topics. No copyright violation troubles, and spot-checks for text–source integrity do indeed check out. Note their creation Not-deer was deleted at AfD earlier this year; I'm not inclined to give this too much weight here as it seems to have been a notability edge case, and experienced participants in that discussion gave reasonable arguments both for and against deletion. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 17:08, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Lanceloth345

    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. Thank you in advance Lanceloth345 (talk) 12:43, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    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.)

    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.

    User:We the People Dissent

    The number of protests and the count are incorrect. I keep a weekly list of protest and counts. Myself and volunteers collected counts from 2133 sites, which is about 92% of sites that day. They are cited. Many are from organizer. It can be seen https://www.wethepeopledissent.net. The count we arrived at was 4.1 to 5.2 million. at about 2300 sites.

    In addition, I would like to add the number of protests and counts for each state. There's a file with the number of protests and the state count about halfway down the page. https://www.wethepeopledissent.net

    If you'd like to see the work I do to verify my knowledge, I report on protests on Substack weekly: https://thepeopledissent.substack.com

    Hello, I've been active in tackling relists and closures on XfD logs, and am requesting the page mover right to be able to cleanly move pages to userspace or draftspace when there is consensus to do so; I sometimes encounter discussions like that during my log runs.

I am trying to branch out in what I do so although this backlog isn't heavy, I would like to help out. Coulomb1 (talk) 01:38, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi, I am a CVU on the German Wikipedia and I am becoming more involved into fighting X-Wiki vandalism. On dewp I am Sichter (Rollback&Review) and temporary-account-viewer. Since my intentions are to fight global vandalism, I will not use the user right locally until I have studied Help:Reverting and Wikipedia:Rollback. NDG (talk) 07:49, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    non-admin comment @NDG You don't seem to be very active here and don't meet the criteria. Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 10:59, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you for your comment, I'm sorry that you don't see my contribution as a sufficient enrichment for the project, but I still wish you all the best. NDG (talk) 11:04, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Cactusisme could you tell me what happened here de:Spezial:Diff/247660539 and here de:Spezial:Diff/255973678? NDG (talk) 11:08, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @NDG Please discuss it on the correct wiki, thanks. Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:11, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Consent! But please let an administrator decide. I explained how I restrict myself at the beginning and what my intention is despite the requirements for this application. NDG (talk) 11:15, 8 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
     Not done for now. We would generally like to see at least a few hundred mainspace edits, or enough to show a solid track record of good counter-vandalism (on enwiki). Having rollback on another wiki is neat, but it doesn't affect our standards. Feel free to reapply when you meet the criteria at the top of the page. Thanks, Giraffer (talk) 11:59, 10 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hello, good day! I created an account on the English Wikipedia 21 days ago and I am an active contributor! Can you give me "Rollbackers" status? Thanks! (I love yourwiki (talk) 03:56, 11 July 2025 (UTC))[reply]
    @I love yourwiki Hi and welcome to Wikipedias, please create a new section if would like to request any right by clicking the add request button above and filling in the relevant details. Please read WP:Rollback first as well as it's granting criteria. (non-admin comment) Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 11:02, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @Giraffer check on this History[3]. I respect your standards. Do you see any issues or signs of lack of experience? NDG (talk) 11:44, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    As I now fulfil the minimum requirements, please consider my experience in other projects. Thank you very much NDG (talk) 11:39, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Mamani1990

    Hello. I would like rollback rights please so that I could use Huggle to fight vandalism on recent changes. I've made 2200 edits and have patrolled recent changes for a few months now. Thank you for considering my request. m a MANÍ1990(talk | contribs) 23:33, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Leafy46

    I am requesting rollback in order to better fight vandalism. This is my second request attempt, with my first being over a year ago; it was rejected because my work patrolling recent changes was deemed too sporadic. Despite my patrolling of recent changes admittedly still being somewhat sporadic, I have come across two separate instances when having rollback rights would have allowed me to better contribute to the project (here and here). I consistently make sure to notify editors when reverting their edits, and I feel that I have a good track record when it comes to identifying vandalism in order to use rollback rights responsibly. Thanks. Leafy46 (talk) 05:00, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

     Not done. Your only edits in 6 months have been to request five different permissions. None of the requests have a reason. It's not clear you have a need for any of them, let alone meet the requirements for them. stwalkerster (talk) 12:25, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Epsilon.Prota

    Hi - I've been patrolling the edit filter log for a few months and have had a few problems recently with the log occasionally disallowing Twinkle rollbacks, especially on unreferenced numeric changes. Am requesting MediaWiki rollback rights to avoid this in future. Thanks. Epsilon.Prota talk 22:24, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Darkwind

    Former admin, lost my mop for inactivity. I'm trying to get active again, and since I spend a lot of time doing CV work, rollback would be helpful. –Darkwind (talk) 12:34, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:GiraffeLover19

    I’ve spent the last few days patrolling the edit log and reverting vandalism manually, but now I would like to use learn to use tools like Anti-Vandal and Twinkle instead of just manually doing it myself. GiraffeLover19 (talk) 14:31, 16 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:GauchoDude

    Increasing number of edits into the template space after being an article contributor for years. Running across more protected templates, such as Infobox gymnast, for which I'd need access. Already have much experience editing and creating templates, as well as sandbox to production edits. GauchoDude (talk) 20:46, 11 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Not sure if I'm supposed to reply to this or not? Clearly well surpass the vast majority of guidelines and a few short on some. Please advise if you have any further questions for me? GauchoDude (talk) 22:29, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    You can if you want. It's easy to run the numbers, just didn't have the bandwidth to do a full review. Primefac (talk) 22:47, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Few questions for you:
    • Do you intend to edit LUA modules?
    • Do you intend to contribute to the other associated areas (contentmodels, edit notices, etc. Basically anything other then templates build on wikitext)?
    • Please review Wikipedia:High-risk templates, let us know if you have any questions about it.
    • Do you understand that in general, most changes to highly used templates should be proposed and tested first - as opposed to the standard WP:BRD process? (note: it is generally acceptable to promote tests to the primary page after a reasonable time so long as there is no objection).
