    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:

    Removal of permissions

    If you wish to have any of your permission flags (except administrator) removed, you should contact an administrator. If you want your administrator flag removed, you should contact a bureaucrat.

    This is not the place to request review of another user's rights. If you believe someone's actions merit removal of a permission flag, you should raise your concern at the incidents noticeboard.

    The bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight flags 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.

    Any editor may comment on requests for 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.

    Reviewer Aszx5000 has messaged me twice that I should be autopatrolled. I don't care for my sake, since the process works fine for me, but I don't want to be a burden on the reviewers. Please either grant or deny this status based on whatever you think is best for the community. Thanks! Jordanroderick (talk) 23:38, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Not done. I've checked a couple of articles. The articles are all nicely formatted, have at least one citation per paragraph.
    However, when I started spot checks in Design 1099 Ship, I noted a high rate of mistakes in terms of WP:INTEGRITY. I've tagged with citation needed / failed verification. I think it would be good for you to go back over articles and really make sure your citations fully support all the preceding text in the paragraph. You may want to nominate for WP:GA afterwards to see if you've really succeeded here (in all other aspects, the articles I checked seem to meet the criteria). —Femke 🐦 (talk) 18:41, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Sir MemeGod

    I have been an editor since 2020, but only really started ramping up my edits in February of this year. I have made 254+ pages (at least 4 of them are from redirects), 103 of which have been in the last 3 days. Another user (Ryan shell) suggested that I should apply. The only major issue that my articles have had in the past was me using AI, which I have acknowledged was wrong and promised not to do it again to an administrator, who worked with me on how to properly find info for articles without using AI. Most of my articles are stubs, and I feel like they can clog up the New Pages Feed a bit.

    At the start of this year, I received an automated message inviting me to join New pages patrol, which I noticed again today, so here I am. I have written several new pages lately, and have nominated articles for deletion in the past, so I am aware of the procedures of AfD, PROD, and CSD. I also have experience with similar topics from my time as admin on the Dutch Wikipedia. I try to be friendly, in particular towards new users. Finally, I might not know every guideline and will probably make mistakes, but I'm always open to feedback and will try to improve. Thanks for considering this request.

    From time to time, I make the occasional page move, these are pretty much always uncontroversial moves. After seeing a move of mine from 6 months ago reviewed just today, I have decided, in the interest of reducing the backlog of editors who have to review my pages, to ask for this permission. Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC) Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    • I don't see a lot of experience here, and I am not sure whether the request is indicating something related to the autopatrolled right, but for the time being I will just give a bit of feedback on a case I noticed. In May you moved Ricardo Cobo to Ricardo Cobo (Musician) in order to create a one-sentence stub on a different Ricardo Cobo. The disambiguator in this case should be in lowercase. More significantly, it appears that this was moved without any consideration of whether the mayor was the primary topic of the search term "Ricardo Cobo". The mayor's article gets fewer views than those of the musician, and when the stub was created, no hatnote link to the former occupant of that title was provided. Links were not fixed either, so for example, Guitar Foundation of America now links incorrectly to the mayor instead of the musician. Why did you decide to make way for the article on the mayor here? Did you consider making a disambiguation page? Dekimasuよ! 02:38, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      To be honest, the upper case typo was a WP:MOS mistake on my part, I take full responsibility. As to whether it should have been a primary or secondary redirect. I felt that, per criterion 2, the mayor of a major city (pop 1 million +) usually has long term significance. I didn't feel there was a need for a disambiguation page with just two entries. As for the links, to be honest, at the time I just assumed Wikipedia fixed those during a move (you can WP:TROUT me for that one). Allan Nonymous (talk) 11:33, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      Usually replacement of one article with an article on an unrelated topic without any intermediate step is not advisable precisely because it breaks things internally. Instead of a trout, can you help fix the links and lack of hatnote? Dekimasuよ! 21:44, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    • (non-admin comment) The group (really a list) that makes an editor's redirects automatically reviewed is the redirect autopatrol list (rather than page mover). However, the guideline is that users normally aren't nominated for that list until they have created 100 redirects. Currently, Allan Nonymous, you're at 12 live redirects created in the article space. (Deleted move redirects don't show up in the tool, since they aren't logged as page creations.) SilverLocust 💬 07:18, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    •   Not done, mainly per lack of indicated need; reducing the backlog of page patrols really isn't what this permission is for, and I'm not seeing any indication (either in the application itself or in the move/edit histories) that this would be particularly useful. No prejudice against requesting in the future if this changes and the tools would be needed on a regular basis. Primefac (talk) 12:52, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I want to help with the renaming of various LGBTQ child pages as a result follow-up to the main article LGBTQ now being LGBTQ as a result of the concluded Talk:LGBTQ#Requested move 14 August 2024 discussion that I initiated.

    General moves. Recently I've wanted to move some voting theory articles (e.g. participation criterion) to rephrase them in terms of their associated paradoxes (e.g. the no show paradox). I've typically found this makes them more intuitive to most people. – Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 00:17, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Not done for now. Feel free to re-apply once you've addressed Femke's concerns and (assuming there are no other major issues) the answer is likely to be positive. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 15:10, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Did all the requirements and patrolled the recent changes page for a rotating number of days. My account also meets all the requirements. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 09:38, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Not done for no other reason than your application doesn't address the concerns from two months ago and gives the impression that you view the requirements as a mechanical tickbox exercise. We're much more concerned with a holistic evaluation of your understanding of policy. Feel free to submit another application that addresses the previous concerns and demonstrates your understanding of relevant policies.

    I am always looking for new ways to contribute to Wikipedia, and I have an extensive understanding of vandalism (I have rollback privileges, and have been fighting vandalism through almost all of my time here). I also have the Page Reviewer rights. OnlyNanotalk 16:13, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I've been around for a couple years now, and believe rollback would significantly assist me in patrolling. I believe I pass all requirements and have sufficient experience with patrolling and dealing with vandalism. NeoJade Talk/Contribs 20:44, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:SparklingBlueMoon

    Reason for requesting rollback rights Hello, I would like to obtain rollback rights to fight against vandalism, spam and any other non-constructive modifications, I know very well how to differentiate between a beginner user who simply makes a mistake, and a person who makes bad modifications voluntarily. Also I know how to use the Twinkle tool to leave warnings of cancellation of modifications on the discussion page of the users concerned. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 21:15, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Hello @Elli. I understand that we don't give roles like that, on the other hand I don't really understand what seniority has to do with it, any sane person knows the difference between pure vandalism and a bad, unintentional modification, it's quite easy to spot what needs to be put back or not. See my posts on Noni Madueke, S-segment and on the discussions of the vandals concerned. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 09:53, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Challenging this denial will not result in Elli changing his mind, it reaffirms that you are not ready. You are a very, very new editor and permissions are given as a sign of trust that they won't be misused. You haven't been active long enough for this trust to exist. Come back after a few months of solid editing. Liz Read! Talk! 02:27, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Ednabrenze

    I actively patrol Recent Changes reverting vandalism and incorrect good faith edits using Twinkle. For every revert, I leave a notice to inform the editors why their edit is reverted. I would like to use a more advanced tool to make this easier. Ednabrenze (talk) 09:32, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I believe that I'm a responsible editor with a lot of experience, and that I would make for a great template editor, especially in my areas of interest such as Eurovision, Geography and Vexillology — IмSтevan talk 13:32, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Not done, fails multiple criteria. Primefac (talk) 12:54, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I would like to point out that regarding guideline 4, I was reverting (what I percieved as) vandalism on an article, that my block was only applied to that singular page, with overwhelming support for the reverts, and that I chose not to dispute it since it was only a 48h block. As for the 5th, I simply don't tend to edit templates using sandboxes, but by pushing edits directly. It really seems like a redundant requirement since not everybody's editing style is the same. No comments on the 6th — IмSтevan talk 22:51, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    5 naturally leads into 6, because most TPE will request that a proposed edit be made to the sandbox before the change is implemented. If it is a trivial/"simple" change it is generally not counted towards 6 because sandboxing is unnecessary, and thus there is no demonstration of technical ability. Another thing that 5 and 6 demonstrate is that there is actually a need for this perm, not just "I think I might find this useful", because template screwups are probably the most widely-visible mistake one can make. In other words, the objective requirements get you a review, the subjective requirements determine whether your request is granted. If you do find yourself frequently seeing the need and making changes to protected templates, feel free to request again in the future. Primefac (talk) 10:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Fair, thank you — IмSтevan talk 10:45, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
