    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:M.Billoo2000

    Hi. Based upon my learning and experience over the years of editing on Wikipedia (almost a decade now), I have created very selected pages which I find qualifying Wikipedia policies. If I find them trending in news but un-complying with the policies, I usually leave a redirect, or occasionally start with the draft. I believe not a single page that I created and/or majorly contributed has been deleted, and many respected editors and admins whom I had interacted with have always been helpful and supportive, believing in my good faith. Plus I only rewrite those articles in bad state which I find relevant, and not every other random article. However, due to recent attacks by sock puppetry over my edits, I want to be an autopatrolled user, so that I can easily continue volunteering independently here, and participate in the ongoing Destubathon as well. I promise I will not misuse this position. Thank you! M. Billoo 13:24, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    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. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:15, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    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)[reply]

    User:Pineapple Storage

    I'm back again! I previously requested this to help with WP:POSTMOVE for links to Guna language (then withdrew that request), but since then I've realised there are a few areas I could use this tool in, not least for updating non-linked uses of "Kuna" and "Cuna" for Guna language and Guna people (of which there seem to be quite a lot). I might also use it for linking/redlinking new articles (for instance, some of the drafts I'm currently working on), and also to help out with updating some of the 90,000+ articles transcluding (the now-deprecated) Template:EngvarB to other English-variety templates. Obviously there might also be some typo correction etc. as required. Pineapple Storage (talk) 17:03, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

     Automated comment This user has had 1 request for autowikibrowser declined in the past 90 days ([2]). — MusikBot talk 17:10, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Do you have any lists of what all articles you would link to Guna people? —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 18:37, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Well to be honest, that's part of what AWB would be useful for... The Kuwait News Agency is also known as KUNA, and until 2023 the currency of Croatia was the Croatian kuna, so there are currently 2,372 articles with that term; filtering out "croatia" and "kuna.net.kw" gets this down to 925 articles, and using regex /Kuna / (with the space) reduces it to 401 articles. Beyond that I don't know of a way to filter out the ones that aren't references to Guna language or Guna people without manually going through all (or at least most) of them. Similarly, wikt:cuna is a word in quite a few languages, so there are also 1,069 articles containing it. Regex /Cuna / and filtering out "Tristan da" gets this down to 453 articles, but I think that's the best I can do! Pineapple Storage (talk) 09:21, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Yeah, that is what I wanted to see. I have no issues with you linking non-linked uses of "Kuna", "Cuna", "Guna" but you have to be really very careful because these simple words can have lots of totally unrelated meanings, even those that may not be attested by Wikipedia or Wiktionary. Also, while linking them, you should be mindful of MOS:OVERLINK. (Non-administrator comment) All the best, —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 10:47, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    For sure, I'm definitely aware of OVERLINK and I wasn't planning to link every mention, I'm just looking to introduce some consistency across linked and non-linked mentions across en-wp following the RM at Guna language. And yep, obviously context is key when determining whether the 'Kuna' or 'Cuna' in question is actually related to the Guna language and people, or whether it's another unrelated usage; the time that identifying this context will take is one of the main reasons why it's such a time-consuming task! 🥲 Pineapple Storage (talk) 12:29, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Request AWB permissions to assist with several cleanup tasks across my WikiProjects of interests such as Women in Red, India, Computational Biology, and others. Types of cleanups often include fixing typos, especially for WP:INDIA where {{tl:Use Indian english}} is often used but content may not reflect that, or vice-versa. Other general cleanups that I do include fixing line or paragraph breaks, infobox lists, or basic copyediting. I believe I used to have AWB access years ago, but it expired due to inactivity.

That said,  Not done, since there's a reason for that rule -- inexperienced users (including your past self, although you're nowhere near as bad as some others were) have gotten into trouble for making inappropriate image additions as part of the contest. Why on earth do you expect us to circumvent our standard procedures to allow you to participate in something that you're not entitled to participate in, and where careless participation has caused much harm in the past, when you can't even be bothered to do your share of what is expected by making 30 edits elsewhere first to qualify via the normal process and couldn't even follow the correct procedures for asking for permissions?

     Not done, I'm not comfortable at this time giving you the NPP userright. Typically, on enwiki we do not consider cross-wiki experience especially in the context of en-wiki-specific-content heavy permission like NPP. The fact that you want to work on the currently "unstable" area of WP:PIA coupled with your lack of AFD participation and the fact that relatively recently created articles like Rafael Hayun use unreliable sources like Tiktok make this a no for now.

    I found a reviewable edit that was not good and had already been reverted the first time it was placed. I reverted the new version of it, since the edit was not following the Wikipedia guidelines. I think that I should have Reviewing pending changes rights, since I have experience with reverting vandalism and disruptive edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Floating Orb (talk • contribs) 19:37, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

     Not done Sorry, I still don't think your ready yet. In addition to the complaints from before, you've picked up a copyvio warning since your previous request, which does not bode well. And blanking/archiving your talk page right after making this request, while of course procedurally allowed, reeks of a bad-faith attempt to cover your tracks. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:43, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I’ve been using Twinkle to revert vandalism from recent changes and warn users for a while now. I’ve been doing this for about two years, with some breaks because of school and life, but I’ve stayed consistent overall. I know what counts as vandalism and what doesn’t, and I always try to assume good faith. I’d really appreciate rollback to help make reverting quicker and save time. I can be trusted with the tool and use it properly. Thank you, ItsCheck (talk) 01:05, 29 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Hi I am requesting rights to use the rollback feature as finding vandalism has actually been a very cool thing for me. I am requesting to be able so I don't have to undo multiple edits by spam-vandals, as I feel like it makes me kind of a spammer when I do this, and doing it all at once would be a great thing. I will admit that I had absolutely no idea that anyone could post warnings on talk pages, I thought that only admins and other experienced members who are given rights could do so. I just want to feel like less of a spammer when reverted edits, so I am requesting this rollback feature. Thanks, MakaylaHippo1998 MakaylaHippo1998 (talk) 05:55, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Hello. do i have any chance to be given rollback rights to fight vandalism better? If possible. Criticize (talk) 16:04, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

     Not done Stop WP:Hat collecting. This request says nothing that the previous requests didn't say before. And while you have now mostly started warning other editors, here's another morsel to consider: only a week ago you said modifications are coming in with blazing speed almost every milli-second, which is both not true (the average edit rate is around 2 edits per second, or one per 500 milliseconds), and evinces an attitude incompatible with rollback access; it's more important to be correct in what you are reverting, and to take those few seconds to think, than to race to the bottom trying to revert edits as fast as possible. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:51, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I would like request for "Extended confirmed users" so that I can participate in Wikipedia Pages Wanting Photos 2025. Thank you. Kwameghana(Bright Kwame Ayisi) (talk) 13:42, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

     Not done You are very lost; the correct place to request extended confirmed access is Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Extended confirmed, but extended confirmed access is almost never granted early and will be granted automatically once you make 30 more edits. * Pppery * it has begun... 16:25, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    500 edits and 30 days, I think Pppery meant. So when after you make another approximately 30 edits, you should get it automatically — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 17:07, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    That's exactly what I said: 30 more edits. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:14, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
