    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.

    User:Grabup

    My previous application was rejected as I didn't meet the minimum 25 articles requirement, but now I've surpassed that and continue to create more, mainly focusing on film articles and Indian village and town articles. I believe I have sufficient knowledge about WP:GNG, WP:NFILM, WP:NPOL, and more. Therefore, I think I'm now eligible for this right. Thanks. Grabup (talk) 15:49, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Automated comment This user has had 1 request for autopatrolled declined in the past 90 days ([1]). — MusikBot talk 15:50, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      Not done – @Grabup:, Numerous articles of yours are missing references (Narayanpur, Dakshin Dinajpur, Dahuakuri, and Chandmukh). If you are given autopatrolled, it is because you are creating quality articles. Based on my review, I do not think you have sufficient knowledge of what Wikipedia considers quality writing and referencing and am not comfortable giving you the tools. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 17:16, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @HickoryOughtShirt?4, These articles are about villages, and there aren't any sources available for them. I understand Wikipedia's rules about citing sources well. You can check my film articles; they have good sources. For instance, Fairy Folk, UT69, and Dukaan. Villages don't usually get covered in the news, so it's hard to find citations for them. But I appreciate your opinion. Grabup (talk) 17:23, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Grabup:, if you cannot find sources for something, you cannot put it in. It's as simple as that. I don't want to discourage you but this further reiterates to me that you need to spend more time around article creating. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 17:25, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    HickoryOughtShirt?4, it's not an "opinion" that sources are required. Wikipedia:Verifiability is policy. Schwede66 20:31, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Schwede66, I am unsure how what I wrote above came across as if I was saying it's an opinion. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:12, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry, HickoryOughtShirt?4, I was trying to address the applicant, of course. I grabbed the wrong user name; this was supposed to be for Grabup. My mistake. Schwede66 22:08, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:B3251

    I am making a request on behalf of myself, as I sometimes create new articles pretty often (mostly New Brunswick-related). As of right now I have 66 live articles, and I have expanded plenty more. I have had a few deletions: two articles when I was brand new to editing & one list I created in mid-2023 (due to not completely understanding WP:BLPCRIME at the time). Otherwise, my articles have been pretty straightforward and vary in quality, with most being Start/C-class by the time I publish them. I had a little bit of a rough start when it came to "notability knowledge", as many do, but overtime I have grown to have an understanding of WP:GNG and WP:MOS when writing articles. Thanks, B3251 (talk) 11:53, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:TheGreatestLuvofAll

    I have created at least 25 articles that follow WP:NMUSIC and WP:GNG about singers and albums. I am familiar with WP:C, WP:V, and WP:BURDEN in my articles, without copying content without permission, and I make sure my info is sourced in any articles I created.

    I recently noticed this user, Princess of Ara. An editor who works mainly on Nigerian related articles and others. While trying to appreciate the user's effort, I got in love with the lovely articles, well sources, written from a volunteer in good faith and now, I am requesting that she be granted the auto patrol user right. It'll also help reduce heavy backlog of NPP. Thanks for your consideration! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 08:05, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:VastV0idInSpace0

    Hello! I tend to do a lot of tedious editing such as adding stub notices to articles, fixing the spacing of stub notices for the sake of the article being less crammed, cleaning/fixing redirects, etc. AWB would be great for getting tedious tasks such as those done in significantly less time and more efficiently. Not to mention would be greatly appreciated on my part. Thank you for your consideration & have a nice day! (Please @ me when responding, thanks!) ¿VØ!D? ✨ 19:52, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Not done – If the file you want to upload is available under a free license, it should be uploaded to our free media repository, Commons. You do not need any special permissions to upload there, and you can use the same username and password you use here. If it is not available under a free license, it should be requested using the Files for upload process, which does not require any special permissions.

    User:MrGreen1163

    In November of 2023 when I was fairly new to editing Wikipedia, I had gamed a few edits to increase my edit account unknowing that is was a rule violation, where I was blocked from extended confirmed permissions for gaming. The administrator Izno had stated that, in order to restore these permissions I had to wait at least 3 months and gain 500 edits legitimately, which meant getting 860 total edits. After almost 5 months of substantive and constructive edits to help improve this encyclopedia and heavily expanding my knowledge on editing, I had reached this goal. My knowledge on Wikipedia has increased heavily and you are more than welcome to view hundreds of my contributions since then which are constructive and substantive. Izno also stated that I should apply when I feel ready to enter the field of contentious topics and articles, which I now feel ready to do. Thank you. (Also I applied in December but willingly withdrew the request after realizing that I did not meet quota.) MrGreen1163 (talk)

    User:Aplucas0703

    I have made many constructive edits to Wikipedia, and have a decent amount of experience in Articles for Creation, and I have approved AfC reviewer for nearly 1 year. I have had no controversy thus far while working in this area. I mainly want to focus on patrolling the backlog of redirects, but occasionally I would also review articles. I also know my limits, and only work in the areas I am confident in, or I seek help. I am big on assuming the good faith of editors and pointing them in the right direction if their efforts are misguided, as I often do at AfC. aaronneallucas (talk) 04:40, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    @Aplucas0703: I took a look at your talk page and noticed that Livelikemusic recently warned you about disruptive editing and that you did not respond to this concern. I was wondering if you could provide some context as to what went on there and why you didn't respond? I'm asking because it's generally a good idea for people with advanced rights to be responsive to feedback. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 19:52, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Clovermoss I actually did respond to the user on their own talk page, though they twice erased my discussion from their talk page. The controversy arose because because I notated the stylization of the album title in an article, which is common practice. There were no in-line notes stating not to do that or directing to a discussion as is reccomended, so I was unaware their was a dispute. The only discussions had not been resolved and generally favored adding the notations, anyway. The user reverted several similar edits in the article where people had notated stylization, so that user's actions probably qualify as edit-warring, which I did warn the user of. I started another discussion on the talk page of the article to explicitly decide if we add notations or not. aaronneallucas (talk) 16:01, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Grabup

    I have actively participated in numerous AFD discussions and have also initiated several. My experience primarily revolves around Indian Film articles, where I've created many articles. I also have dealt with issues such as paid and spammy citations with Admin “Kuru”. While I currently review new articles from the 'New pages feed,' I lack the authority to accept them. However, I regularly tag articles for speedy deletion when they meet the criteria, resulting in their removal. I'm now requesting a one-month trial for the New Page reviewer right. If my contributions are deemed beneficial, I hope to continue, but if not, I understand and am willing to relinquish the right after the trial period. Grabup (talk) 06:54, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    Thanks. I'll leave this for someone else, although the recently declined speedies do suggest it might still be too soon. Trying AfC reviewing first might be a good idea. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 21:46, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Extraordinary Writ, Thank you for your feedback. While I understand your concerns about recent declined speedy deletions, many were drafted by admins. All my AfD nominations were completely deleted without any rejections, while my votes on AFD aligned with the final result by 95.5%. I regularly engage in AfC reviewing, focusing on spam and copyright issues. Given the chance, I believe I can contribute positively to New Page Review. Thank you again for your insight and consideration. Grabup (talk) 04:14, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    •   Not done I agree with Extraordinary Writ that you do not have sufficient experience for this role (or for AfC, IMO). Most of your AfD participation has taken place within the past two weeks, and posting low-effort votes on AfDs that are already snowing [4][5][6] is an easy way to get a high match rate but does not demonstrate an understanding of policy. Spicy (talk) 17:19, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
      @Spicy, Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'll remember them. I've asked for a trial period of one or two months, at least.

    Hi. I generally rotate between different maintenance activities such as RC patrol, pending changes patrol, and edit request patrol, and would like to contribute to the NPP/AFC queues too. Editing Wikipedia for 15 years, but with long bouts of low activity or inactivity, but I feel I have a strong grasp on the core policies (especially copyright-related). Despite focusing on maintenance mainly, I have created/significantly contributed to few articles, most recently XZ Utils backdoor (permalink when moved from draft to mainspace) and BG3.

    Hello. I would like to request NPP rights to help review newly-created articles and lower the backlog. To start, I have over 5500 edits on en.wiki, with over 1500 in the mainspace. I also have moderate experience in the article creation process, being a AfC reviewer and having created several articles. I also have experience in the deletion process, having tagged lots of pages for CSD (and later having most of them deleted) and participating in AfD. If the NPP right is granted, I will start carefully patrolling the NewPagesFeed and contributing to the reviewing process. Thank you for considering my request!

    User:Jonathan Deamer

    I'd like to use this permission to participate in the upcoming backlog drive, and enable some of my existing (informal, unofficial) NPP-type activity to have further positive impact (eg. I currently welcome newbies/draftify/CSD where appropriate). I'm specifically requesting now as I've recently gained more experience with DYK nominations, AfD, and AfC, so feel ready.

    User:Noorullah21

    Hi, I want to be a net positive as a new page reviewer. Especially ahead of the new page patroller drive that's upcoming. I've long been interested in coming towards this and reviewing new pages to cut down on the current backlog and it seems like a fun hobby to do via reviewing pages. I also have some AFD experience especially in identifying areas of dubious sources. Noorullah (talk) 05:45, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Wikibear47

    Hello. I would like to request New page reviewer rights to help review newly-created articles and lower the backlog. I have good knowledge of Wikipedia policies and guidelines, content policies and deletion processes i.e. WP:AfD, WP:PROD, WP:CSD, and Wikipedia:Articles for creation. Would be lovely to contribute more to the project. Wikibear47 (talk) 16:34, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I am applying for this permission as I am interested in participating in the May Backlog Drive.

    @Golem08:   Done Thanks for your interest in participating in the May backlog drive. Make sure you add yourself to Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2024/Participants.

    User:BluePenguin18

    I have been editing for over four years with ~1K live mainspace edits, including some engagement with the deletion processes and significant article creation including BLPs. With no behavioral blocks or 3RR violations and an understanding of the relevant guidelines (including RfC engagement), I am seeking new page reviewer permissions to join the May 2024 backlog drive. Thanks for reviewing this week's burst of requests ahead of the drive! BluePenguin18 🐧 ( 💬 ) 08:07, 29 April 2024 (UTC) BluePenguin18 🐧 ( 💬 ) 08:07, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Teratix

    I saw NPP is running a backlog drive next month. I'd like to pitch in. I've been around for six years and been autopatrolled for nearly as long, creating about 80 articles. I've also had some decent experience in deletion, see my logs. I prefer to only hold rights while I am actively using them, so I would prefer if NPR were granted just for the drive's duration for now. – Teratix ₵ 04:22, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    I'm actively participating in editing and reverting disruptive edits, vandalism by patrolling the RecentChanges. I use Twinkle/RedWarn to revert edits. I'm interested in pending changes reviewer rights so I can patrol any new edits that involves Vandalism, Disruptive Edits, Edit Testings, Trolls and approve constructive edits.

    I have experience in patrolling recent changes for vandalism and other forms of nonconstructive editing, and other places for content policies, using various gadgets. It would be nice to have the ability to properly review edits on pages with pending changes protection. Cleo Cooper (talk) 20:47, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Sunnyboi18

    Hello, I'am applying again for Pending Changes Reviewer, as it was felt by a person who reviewed this that my request was "all over the place" and that "I didn't understand that PC rights are". I don't think that's fair.

    I was simply just giving my experience and of having done 632 edits on Wiki involving mostly updating critical information, having been an Editor since Feburary 2021, and being familiar with Wiki Guidelines & Copyright and understanding the importance of making sure the info on Wiki is correct, and preventing Vandalism. And other requests saying that exact same stuff were approved, so not sure what to say but, I'am aware of the importance and privliege of this permission, and would like my request to be considered fairly, as it did not feel like that was the case the first time, based on the response that I got.

    User:RodRabelo7

    Hello, for some time now I have been patrolling Special:RecentChanges occasionally and reverting vandalisms that I identify, using Twinkle. In addition to reverting, of course I also notify the users who commit these acts of vandalism. I also usually make reports to Wikipedia:Administrator intervention against vandalism. I'm adding this request for obtaining the rollback tool here because I would like to have access to semi-automatic tools, namely Huggle, which would greatly facilitate the work currently done with several clicks. I enjoy patrolling recent changes and I'm sure that becoming a rollbacker would make my work easier. I have been a rollbacker on Commons for over a year and understand how the tool works, as well as the risks associated with it, committing myself not to misuse it, under the risk of losing it and possibly being blocked. Thanks, RodRabelo7 (talk) 05:29, 28 April 2024 (UTC) RodRabelo7 (talk) 05:29, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

      Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 06:14, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks, Fastily, I'll follow your advices! How many reverts do you think it's neccessary during this period? Cheers, RodRabelo7 (talk) 06:27, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm not looking for a specific number. But I will say that it's not uncommon for experienced vandal fighters to make several dozen reverts a day. -Fastily 09:01, 28 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
