Current requests for increase in protection level[edit]

Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload protection at the BOTTOM of this section. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.


List of all-time NBA win–loss records[edit]

Reason: Persistent IP disruptive edits. Please see the list's talk page, as well as message I left on relevant WikiProject talk page.

Multiple IPs being used (at least 4: 1; 2; 3; 4), and largely ignoring my edit summaries, as well as talk page messages, and user talk page messages.

@Ad Orientem: You said "Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection." but please look at the list's edit history, and you'll see there is actually a lot of such activity. IPs have reverted edits from another user (see here). Soulbust (talk) 20:27, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 20:31, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
@Soulbust I'm seeing a very large body of IP edits and only a handful have been reverted. That said, I'm also seeing corrective editing. Most of the anonymous edits have been by a couple of IPs. We don't usually protect pages when the problem is just one or two editors. Once adequately warned, if the disruption persists then we issue blocks. The problem with page protection, and the reason we treat it as a last resort, is that it prevents constructive editing by anonymous users. Sometimes that's unavoidable but we try to keep it to a minimum. Is this actual vandalism, or just well-intentioned edits that are not helpful? If it's actual vandalism and warnings have been issued, either ping me with diffs or report it to AIV. Otherwise, as frustrating as it may be, try to communicate with the IPs to let them know they are not helping and why. If all else fails, we can page block them. Let me know if you have any questions or I'm missing something. -Ad Orientem (talk) 21:54, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Quick clarification to the above. Those are probably just two editors as they are each operating within a /64 range. -Ad Orientem (talk) 21:57, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Okay thank you for the reply. I think it is a bit tricky for sure, as there is some positive to glean from the edits that've been made. But they're just amid a bunch of very (perhaps disruptive is too strong a word here) unconstructive(?) or unhelpful edits. I've tried to communicate through the edit summaries and whatnot, and that has recently seemed to at least garner some sort of actual edit summaries being made by the IP editors. I'll try to navigate the issue, as I am assuming good faith here, and do believe that because a portion of the edits are actually constructive, that all of them are being made with well-meaning intent. Idk, it is incredibly frustrating like you suggested, but I'll try to work with it. Soulbust (talk) 00:33, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

  • To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
  • Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
  • Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
  • If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Florida Panthers[edit]

Reason: Why would you lock my favorite team page on Wikipedia? If you do not make this happen by June 26, 2025. I am making a better version with no locked pages. Thank you for understanding. 189.174.145.87 (talk) 22:35, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Recommend turning down the request, as IP's promise of making a 'new' Florida Panthers page, comes across as either an WP:OWN, WP:NOTHERE or WP:CIR issue. GoodDay (talk) 22:50, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Not unprotected – Please use an edit request to request specific changes to be made to the protected page. Ultimatums from anonymous fanboys won't go anywhere, either. ~Anachronist (talk) 03:30, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page[edit]

Request a specific edit to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

  • Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
  • Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
  • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
  • If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
  • This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

Confirmed[edit]

User:Rmesrmes[edit]

Dear Wikipedians: I'm a Brazilian user with a good grasp in Inkscape who is looking forward to help converting some raster images from the following page to SVG: Images that should be in SVG format

My main interested in that is both to contribute to Wikipedia and to get more experience with vectorial illustrations. However, I cannot upload SVG versions in those images file history because my account is not autoconfirmed (it has less than 10 edits in EN Wikipedia, even though I have more than that in PT Wikipedia).

I'm asking for the "confirmed" flag because I'll probably never do 10 or more edits in EN Wikipedia articles, mainly because I have good reading skills in English, but I'm at "base level" writing in that language. Rmesrmes (talk) 01:58, 25 June 2024 (UTC)

@Rmesrmes: you should be able to upload these images to Commons in most cases as most of the source images appear to have acceptable licensing. Elli (talk | contribs) 14:15, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Category:Convert to SVG and copy to Wikimedia Commons is the best place to start, you will be able to both get the experience you want, improve the images, and make them widely available to hundreds of other projects! — xaosflux Talk 14:25, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Page mover[edit]


User:PadFoot2008[edit]

Hello, I'd like to request page mover rights as I often come across articles that do not follow the Wikipedia:Article titles policy and though usually move those articles myself, they sometimes can't be moved due to technical reasons. I have participated in numerous WP:RMs and opened many significant ones, as well as performed many moves myself over the past. Thank you. PadFoot2008 04:07, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer[edit]

User:M S Hassan[edit]

I am requesting Pending Changes Reviewer rights to assist in maintaining the quality of Wikipedia articles. I have been an active editor for almost 3 years, with over 16,000 edits. My contributions reflect a solid understanding of Wikipedia's content policies, including verifiability, neutrality, and no original research. I regularly engage in discussions to improve articles. I am committed to ensuring that pending changes are reviewed promptly and accurately. M S Hassan (talk) 17:25, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

 Not done You've been blocked three times in the last 18 months for edit warring, most recently just last month. Based on that, I don't believe you have evidenced familiarity with one of the requirements of criteria no. 4 in the list of criteria for granting of this permission. This is not a terminal decision and you are free to reapply in the future. Chetsford (talk) 20:17, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

User:48JCL[edit]

I'm a productive user that has warned people in the past for distruptive editing, COI, vandalism and more. I usually try to complete things I start and it is very painful for me to look at Special:PendingChanges having tons of articles. I would definitely try to reduce the backlog. 48JCL 23:45, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

User:HypeBoy[edit]

I have been helping in improving Wikipedia for three years now, and I am familiar with the wikipedia policy on vandalism as well as the main points of NPOV, Verifiability, WP:NOR, and WP:NOT. I'm hoping I can contribute more to Wikipedia by having PCR right. Thank you. — ‎‎‎hhypeboyh 💬✏️ 00:34, 24 June 2024 (UTC)


Rollback[edit]

User:Skitash[edit]

As someone who constantly reverts disruptive editors and reports vandals to WP:AIV almost daily, I would greatly appreciate access to rollback permissions to facilitate my work. Skitash (talk) 20:13, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 21:58, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
I apologize for not consistently warning editors when reverting their edits. This was primarily the case with IP hoppers, as warnings seemed redundant given that IPs keep changing. For instance, instead of warning this IP I believed to be a WP:LOUTSOCK of Derklnin (whom I had already warned), I opted to request protection for the page at WP:RPPI to secure the article against long-term IP vandalism instead. Moving forward, I will make sure to issue a warning for every IP and registered user I revert. Skitash (talk) 22:51, 23 June 2024 (UTC)
