Requested edit filters (WP:EF/R)

No rcats?

  • Task: Simple, see created redirects without any rcats, tell the editor to add some rcats.
  • Reason: Too many redirects without rcats.
  • Diffs: I can add links if needed, but seems self explanatory.

I would like to quickly perform semi automated editing, such as reducing the CS1 error backlog. I understand that I take full responsibillity for these edits and will not sacrifice quality over quantity. Thank you. Rusty4321 talk contribs 05:10, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

Mostly to fix links after a page move. Used AWB years ago, today surprised to find it requires a separate authorisation. Must have missed it. Thanks :) — kashmīrī TALK 16:15, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Lucas7yoshi

For the past bit i've been been contributing to Wikipedia by means of Counter Vandalism, as an extension of this I think that AWB can allow me to further my counter vandalism efforts, as well as extend into other maintenance like contributions with a similar level of efficiency as my counter-vandalism efforts.

User:BerryForPerpetuity

Reason for requesting autowikibrowser rights: I've been doing counter-vandalism for a bit, and AWB rights will allow me to begin editing Wikipedia with similar effectiveness that I have while recent changes patrolling. I hope to contribute to the law Wikiproject and overall Wikipedia mainspace. BerryForPerpetuity (talk) 14:12, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

BerryForPerpetuity, AWB isn't really useful for counter-vandalism. How do you see yourself using AWB if granted access? Primefac (talk) 14:22, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
Primefac; typos in articles, AWB's general fixes, and tagging is probably what I would start out with. Counter-Vandalism was just an example for the efficiency I hope to achieve with my AWB edits. BerryForPerpetuity (talk) BerryForPerpetuity (talk) 14:26, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

New page reviewer

User:PharyngealImplosive7

I was granted new page reviewer rights temporarily and I think that I'm ready to get them permanently since I've tagged and patroled over 50 pages now. I've also tagged many pages for deletion that were unfit for the wiki. Finally, I would like to participate in the May backlog drive. I thank the reviewing admin for their time and hope that I will be granted this perm. – PharyngealImplosive7 (talk) 16:45, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

@PharyngealImplosive7:, it feels as though nobody has been comfortable granting or denying your request up until this point, and I don't want to keep you out of the backlog drive. I'm going to grant you another 2-month trial, during which time I encourage you to participate more at WP:AFD to show some familiarity with the deletion process.  Done. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:59, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Dclemens1971

I have extensive experience with new page creation and expanding stubs into appropriately sourced articles, and I also engage regularly (and constructively!) in AfD debates and PRODs with a good understanding of applicable policies. I'd like to apply this experience by helping out in May with the NPP backlog. Thanks for considering! Dclemens1971 (talk) 21:42, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi Dclemens1971, I appreciate your desire to help out with the backlog as we always need fresh eyes and eager participants. :) I see that you've had some participation with AfDs, which is good because a lot of NPP is related to the nuances surrounding notability. I took a look at the articles you've created. I noticed that some of your articles rely heavily on primary sources? Some examples are Church of Bangladesh Diocese of Kushtia, Church of Bangladesh Diocese of Barisal, Nathan Ingen, and Brian Williams (bishop)? I admit that this has prompted some serious hesitation on my part. I'd rather not reject a request before hearing what you have to say on the matter, though. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 11:25, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for the question @Clovermoss. I agree that the pages rely on primary sources for non-controversial facts. Dioceses and other middle judicatories of major church traditions (Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican) have historically been viewed as per se notable, even without secondary sourcing (see AfDs from 2019, 2018, 2018, 2012, 2007, 2007. (The only "delete" results for a diocese that I've seen were for a tiny splinter group with no sourcing available at all or for an apparent hoax). Under the principle articulated by these "keep" results, I operated on the view that the Church of Bangladesh dioceses can be presumed notable. For Nathan Ingen and Brian Williams, WP:BISHOPS states that "[t]he bishops of major Christian denominations are notable by virtue of their status." (In both of these cases, the bishops are also acting primates (heads) of their churches in the Anglican Communion.) To sum up: I understand that generally N:ORGCRIT or N:BIO apply, but WP practice appears to treat major church traditions' dioceses and bishops as inherently notable and that's what I operated under for those articles. Happy to continue the conversation or answer other questions. Dclemens1971 (talk) 12:35, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
@Dclemens1971: Thanks for linking those AfD discussions... they are interesting. My discomfort is in relation to the fact that they we don't actually have an SNG about dioceses. However, your response definitely demonstrates that you understand nuance. If I gave you the perm, do you think you would be able to only review articles that you think meet GNG, NCORP or an SNG? Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 23:50, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
@Clovermoss Of course, I would stick to stated policy in any new page reviews. (And it's probably worth my raising the question of an SNG for dioceses at the Wikiproject.) Dclemens1971 (talk) 13:27, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
 Done for a trial period of 3 months. Ping me when its close to expiry if you're still interested in reviewing and I'll provide feedback. If you do propose an SNG, I'd suggest going higher than a WikiProject per WP:LOCALCON. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 21:25, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Request to participate in the May backlog drive. I have been an editor since 2005. I have knowledge of policies and guidelines. I am a rollbacker and huggle patroller.

This is because the permission was subsequently revoked. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 03:44, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
Miniapolis, would you mind striking the above text? I think it confuses the bot now that it has been revoked. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 10:36, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
Struck, and thanks for the poke. All the best, Miniapolis 13:19, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
@Clovermoss, @Miniapolis: Wouldn't striking it be more confusing to the bot? They were granted the perm, but it was later revoked. It would be more accurate for the archives if we left the done marker in place as it reflects what actually happened more accurately. It would also allow the bot to actually archive this request.

 Revoked Hopefully the thread will archive now. Miniapolis 13:43, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Florificapis

I got busy in real life for most of March and April, so my request was put on hold per [1]. Here is my original reason for requesting NPR permissions again.

I have over 120 new articles under my belt, mostly relating to medieval history, monasteries, saints, and geographical features. I am familiar with the kinds of content that would fall under CSD criteria, since I have experience wikifying new pages and tagging obviously problematic new pages for speedy deletion. I know the guidelines on notability, proper sourcing, draftifying new articles, rating talk pages using scripts, AfC, AfD, and other essential patrolling tasks. Would be quite happy to reduce the backlog while being cautious and careful. Also currently a Pending Changes Reviewer. Florificapis (talk) 00:09, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Dudhhr

I'd like to volunteer for the NPP drive this month. I was previously granted the right for a trial period in August (expired a month later, extension request declined), and for another trial in December (for the January drive; unfortunately I was inactive as I was busy IRL). I have a bit of content writing experience (Trams in Olsztyn ) and formerly worked in AfC reviewing. – dudhhr talkcontribssheher 17:19, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

I'm fine giving you a trial for another 2 months.  Done. I believe you're competent, but based on you having had trials in the past and not doing as much during them, it feels more appropriate to give you another trial just to show it. You're welcome to follow up on my talk page near the end of the trial or to re-apply here with about a week or so remaining in the trial. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:50, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

User:B3251

I would like to help out with the backlog. I’m very familiar with the content policies, having created 71 active articles (most being non-stubs) as of making this request. I’ve additionally had some experience in participating in discussions, handling deletion templates, and moving new articles with significant issues to the draft space. B3251 (talk) 10:57, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

 Done for a 2-month trial. Please make sure to spend some time at WP:AFD during the trial to show familiarity with the deletion process. Please also re-apply roughly a week before the trial is set to end. Hey man im josh (talk) 12:47, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

User:TarnishedPath

I participated in the December backlog drive, being granted a trial. At the end of the trial I requested permanent NPP, which was denied with the denying admin expressing concern that I hadn't created any articles. I've since created an article about Neeraj Gupta (refer to User_talk:TarnishedPath/Archive_2#Your_submission_at_Articles_for_creation:_Neeraj_Gupta_(sculptor)_has_been_accepted) and been responsible for the bulk of the material in the newly created article Bruce Lehrmann‎. I had been working on Draft:Bruce Lehrmann‎ but someone else started work on Bruce Lehrmann‎ just as I submitted Draft:Bruce Lehrmann‎ to AfC so I ended up merging my work over to the mainspace article and issuing a CSD for deletion of the draft. I've continued to be semi-regularly involved with AfD. I'm applying because I got a notification a while ago that there was a backlog drive for May and I'm willing to help out a bit with that.

User:Kingsmasher678

Saw the backlog drive and thought that I would throw my hat in the ring as willing to help out. Though I have relatively few edits, most of them are in the new changes patrol, which has a lot of overlap with this project. I also spend time searching for and sending to AfD non-notable articles, or CSDing promotional and/or nonsense ones. I always strive to explain to good faith editors why I revert or nominate their pages, as this helps to retain new editors, rather than biting them and scaring them off. Overall, I think that I would be a good match for this project, on a one-month trial basis. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 18:57, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Trainsskyscrapers

Hello. I was initially given a month long trial as a new page reviewer after receiving an invitation on my user page, and I've been enjoying everything so far: reviewing pages, providing feedback, sending WikiLove to new and returning users who have made exceptional first attempts, tagging issues, and resolving issues myself (that could otherwise be tagged) when I have time in an attempt to reduce the backlog. I have already been renewed once, and my second trial expires in a little over two weeks (May 26th). I'm requesting either an indefinite or longer-term ability to review new pages before my time lapses. Haven't had any behavioral issues, and I try to treat all users with respect. I will continue to help clear the backlog in the meantime. Thanks again. Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 00:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer

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.

I'm sorry you think my decline of your request was unfair, I did read it, and I gave my honest impression of it. Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 22:43, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
Well, you're "honest impression" was more of a commentary on me personally rather than my experience and work I've done. So once again, it does not seem like this is being processed in a fair and unbiased manner. Especially when requests have been approved with very little language in them with regard to their background or experience, or with the same amount of/less edits as myself. Sunnyboi18 (talk) 09:09, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
I'm leaving this open for another, previously uninvolved admin to review, I was just explaining myself. Just Step Sideways from this world ..... today 18:24, 3 May 2024 (UTC)
 Not done. In reviewing your edit history, it doesn't look like you're actually active in anti vandalism efforts. For example, you've only undone an edit 3 times, and each of those times was undoing your own edit. You also only have 7 user talk page edits, all of which are to your own talk page. Typically for someone involved in anti vandalism we'd expect more undo actions and some warnings posted on other user's talk pages. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:23, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

User:CGP05

Hello! I revert vandalism quite frequently and I would like rollback rights so I can use the AntiVandal tool to make the process faster. CGP05 (talk) 02:34, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 06:05, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
Sorry about that. I try to warn the majority of editors that vandalize. I will ensure that I warn every time from now on. CGP05 (talk) 13:45, 7 May 2024 (UTC)
Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. I note that again, you've failed to notify an editor post revert even after you promised to do so yesterday. Anyways, upon further review, I'm not seeing enough consistent counter-vandalism work to determine whether you'll be able to use the tool appropriately. I also see that you've made a total of zero reports to AIV, which is an important stop for any serious counter-vandalism patroller. Please review my feedback, and if you're still interested in the tool, then please spend at least a month actively patrolling before reapplying. As such, closing as  Not done -Fastily 06:01, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
