It's an IP User, the IP's sometime change after a time don't they? I also doubt they look at it. They've made no attempt at discussion on the edits they made or replies. They just continue to revert to their version. I have uploaded a discussion on the talk page as well.

User:Dclemens1971

As a new page reviewer for the past couple months, I've seen the value of keeping high-quality page creations out of the review backlog. Since 2022, I've created 154 articles (one of which was PROD'ed, uncontested, early on, but I learned from it and that's the only one ever proposed for deletion in any venue). I think my track record of page creation is strong and I'd like to receive autopatrolled rights to reduce the NPP backlog for my future article creations. I'm also autopatrolled for redirects if that's helpful context. Dclemens1971 ( talk) 04:43, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Hey there! I'm starting to come up against instances where it would be helpful to use a semi-automated tool to conduct repetitive edits. I would find use for this for the normal maintenance tasks AWB is built for, but also back-end work such as closing bulk nominations at deletion venues. ( Case in point...) I am familiar with the bot policy, the sections pertaining to semi-automated tools in particular, and will follow it in good faith to the best of my ability. Let me know if you have any questions!

@ Cowboygilbert: I'd normally decline this nomination due a lack of deletion related experience (no AFD votes, limited CSD logs). However, given my familiarity with you and your work, I'm going to make an exception with the caveat that, at the end of your trial, if you wish to re-apply, I expect there to be more participation in some AfD discussions. I'm not saying you need to camp out there, but it's tough to assess your competency in that realm if we have nothing to look at.  Done for a 3-month trial. Thank you for volunteering.

I was given a two-moth extension about two months ago, and I wanted to apply now for full-time approval to be a new page reviewer. I have been active in AfDs, and, as suggested in my temporary approval last time, I have reviewed many more pages than the first two months of my reviewership. All of the AfDs I have created have spawned genuine discussion, and I have also approved several new pages that pass the standards of WP:GNG and WP:SIGCOV. I feel as though I have done enough to earn full-time approval, but I would appreciate any approval the admins are willing to give. I enjoy this work, and I enjoy helping clean up Wikipedia.

Requests for page mover

Page mover


User:PadFoot2008

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)

I am slightly concerned about the number of recent reverted moves. Primefac ( talk) 14:45, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
Hello @ Primefac, concerning those two reverted moves, they were indeed mistakes on my part. In hindsight, I should have done a deeper study of the main article Gahadavala dynasty. I had decided to move some Indian monarch articles to be in par with the standard convention of "(name) of (kingdom)" (such as George II of Great Britain), and when I discovered the two articles ( Madanapala (Gahadavala dynasty) and Govindachandra (Gahadavala dynasty)), I proceeded to have a quick look at the main article, where I saw the phrase "Gahadavalas of Kannauj", and after performing a quick search through the usages of "Govindachandra of Kannauj" in RS, I arrived at the conclusion that it would be a good move location. After the move was reverted, I dug deeper and read the main article more carefully and found out that the Gahadavalas do not actually appear to have ruled over the city of Kannauj but rather over Varanasi. I have since been more careful in performing such moves, and five monarch related article moves performed since seem good for now. PadFoot ( talk) 11:43, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Ben Azura

I requested Rollback several months ago and my request was was turned down because I didn't have enough anti-vandalism in my recent editing history. I haven't been very consistently active for personal and family reasons so I don't remember the exact course of events after that. After I was turned down I tried filtering the recent changes feed based on suggestions I saw here. This is the latest example of why that hasn't been working for me:

[3]

The vandalism was done in multiple edits and part of it survived my revert [4].

I had figured out a way to warn users after my previous request was turned down but after a few months away I don't remember how I was doing it. I wasn't able to find a way to easily warn the user whose username is not clickable the way it usually is when edits are reverted.

I am not planning to use rollback for anything other than reverting vandalism. Is this process really necessary to get the Rollback privilege? Ben Azura ( talk) 13:22, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. You've only made a small handful of reverts since I declined your previous request. That's not enough activity for me to assess whether you'll be able to use this tool properly. That being said, youdon't need rollback to undo inappropriate edits. 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 09:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Hey Fastily, it's your call man. I will use the recent changes feed as you have asked me to. What I wanted was to undo "consecutive previous edits" (from WP:ROLLBACK) like the situation I encountered that led to this request.
I am only interested in the tool because I think it is the right tool to help with the situation I encountered while patrolling RecentChanges.
Can you direct me to all the policies I need to familiarize myself with? What if I only get the most recent edit but miss the "consecutive previous edits"? I don't want to be blamed for that. By requesting Rollback have I fulfilled my end of responsibility in terms of what I can control? And, is warning editors a must? I don't want too many demands on my time (limited these days). But I still want to revert vandalism that I see. Let me know how you think it is best to proceed, please ping me with advice. Ben Azura ( talk) 19:54, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
We already have Wikipedia:Twinkle which does exactly what you're asking for. You don't need rollback to use Twinkle. There isn't a specific policy I can point you to, and frankly, that's not the right question to ask anyways. There are no shortcuts here; if you want rollback, you need to put in the work, get experience patrolling recent changes, and prove to us that you're ready for it. - Fastily 09:24, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

I believe that I meet the requirements for the rollback user right; I've read WP:RBK and WP:REVERT, have enough edits, try my best to consistently warn users, and I've been reviewing recent changes fairly consistently since around May.

Requests for template editor

Template editor

User:Taavi

I've been fixing some dark mode as I spot them, some of those are on template-protected pages and I'd like to fix those directly instead of making edit requests. I don't think I fully meet the standard criteria, but I hope I've already demonstrated elsewhere that I won't go around breaking things that I don't fully understand. Taavi ( talk!) 17:51, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

Standard Guidelines review:
  1. Green tickY (guideline: >1 year, applicant: 5)
  2. Green tickY (guideline: >1000 edits, applicant: ~8k)
  3. Green tickY (guideline: >150 template edits, applicant: ~200)
  4. Green tickY (guideline: !<6 months, applicant: NA)
  5. Green tickY (guideline: 3 sandboxes, applicant: 3)
  6. Red XN (guideline: 5 requests, applicant: 3, plus 1 pending)
Primefac ( talk) 18:07, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Speaking to the request itself, fixing ... as I spot them appears to be a sum total of a single template. Is this something you actually think you will need for the short-term future or are you just guessing? Primefac ( talk) 18:11, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Izno granted this in the meantime, but: I do expect there will be at least some more as I spot things that annoy me. {{ S-note}} and Module:Adjacent stations are the ones I've spent edit requests so far, and the "Route map" headings on some railway-related infoboxes are probably up next. This would be similar to what I've already been doing on Wikitech and in smaller numbers on mw.o and fiwiki. Taavi ( talk!) 18:52, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

User:Dclemens1971

As a new page reviewer for the past couple months, I've seen the value of keeping high-quality page creations out of the review backlog. Since 2022, I've created 154 articles (one of which was PROD'ed, uncontested, early on, but I learned from it and that's the only one ever proposed for deletion in any venue). I think my track record of page creation is strong and I'd like to receive autopatrolled rights to reduce the NPP backlog for my future article creations.

@ Cowboygilbert: I'd normally decline this nomination due a lack of deletion related experience (no AFD votes, limited CSD logs). However, given my familiarity with you and your work, I'm going to make an exception with the caveat that, at the end of your trial, if you wish to re-apply, I expect there to be more participation in some AfD discussions.

Requests for page mover

Page mover


User:PadFoot2008

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)

I am slightly concerned about the number of recent reverted moves. Primefac ( talk) 14:45, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
Hello @ Primefac, concerning those two reverted moves, they were indeed mistakes on my part. In hindsight, I should have done a deeper study of the main article Gahadavala dynasty. I had decided to move some Indian monarch articles to be in par with the standard convention of "(name) of (kingdom)" (such as George II of Great Britain), and when I discovered the two articles ( Madanapala (Gahadavala dynasty) and Govindachandra (Gahadavala dynasty)), I proceeded to have a quick look at the main article, where I saw the phrase "Gahadavalas of Kannauj", and after performing a quick search through the usages of "Govindachandra of Kannauj" in RS, I arrived at the conclusion that it would be a good move location. After the move was reverted, I dug deeper and read the main article more carefully and found out that the Gahadavalas do not actually appear to have ruled over the city of Kannauj but rather over Varanasi. I have since been more careful in performing such moves, and five monarch related article moves performed since seem good for now. PadFoot ( talk) 11:43, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Ben Azura

I requested Rollback several months ago and my request was was turned down because I didn't have enough anti-vandalism in my recent editing history. I haven't been very consistently active for personal and family reasons so I don't remember the exact course of events after that. After I was turned down I tried filtering the recent changes feed based on suggestions I saw here. This is the latest example of why that hasn't been working for me:

[3]

The vandalism was done in multiple edits and part of it survived my revert [4].

I had figured out a way to warn users after my previous request was turned down but after a few months away I don't remember how I was doing it. I wasn't able to find a way to easily warn the user whose username is not clickable the way it usually is when edits are reverted.

I am not planning to use rollback for anything other than reverting vandalism. Is this process really necessary to get the Rollback privilege? Ben Azura ( talk) 13:22, 3 July 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. You've only made a small handful of reverts since I declined your previous request. That's not enough activity for me to assess whether you'll be able to use this tool properly. That being said, youdon't need rollback to undo inappropriate edits. 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 09:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Hey Fastily, it's your call man. I will use the recent changes feed as you have asked me to. What I wanted was to undo "consecutive previous edits" (from WP:ROLLBACK) like the situation I encountered that led to this request.
I am only interested in the tool because I think it is the right tool to help with the situation I encountered while patrolling RecentChanges.
Can you direct me to all the policies I need to familiarize myself with? What if I only get the most recent edit but miss the "consecutive previous edits"? I don't want to be blamed for that. By requesting Rollback have I fulfilled my end of responsibility in terms of what I can control? And, is warning editors a must? I don't want too many demands on my time (limited these days). But I still want to revert vandalism that I see. Let me know how you think it is best to proceed, please ping me with advice. Ben Azura ( talk) 19:54, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
We already have Wikipedia:Twinkle which does exactly what you're asking for. You don't need rollback to use Twinkle. There isn't a specific policy I can point you to, and frankly, that's not the right question to ask anyways. There are no shortcuts here; if you want rollback, you need to put in the work, get experience patrolling recent changes, and prove to us that you're ready for it. - Fastily 09:24, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

I believe that I meet the requirements for the rollback user right; I've read WP:RBK and WP:REVERT, have enough edits, try my best to consistently warn users, and I've been reviewing recent changes fairly consistently since around May. I think I have a good grasp of Wikipedia's main policies. I'm also currently enrolled in the CVU Academy. I use Twinkle and Ultraviolet but I would love to be able have full access to Huggle and have another tool to be able to stop vandals so I am requesting rollback rights. Thanks :D.

 Done, although @ GoldRomean, please ensure that you are consistently notifying editors when you revert their edits. I did see a few instances where you neglected to do so (e.g. 1, 2, 3). - Fastily 09:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Ok, thakn you. I will try my best to always warn editors :D. GoldRomean ( talk) 14:42, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

I've been editing on Wikipedia for more than three years and i have developed the expertise to identify vandalism and familiarize myself with Wikipedia's content policies and copyright laws. I'm requesting the rights and responsibilities that come with this experience. 𝒮-𝒜𝓊𝓇𝒶 13:39, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I noticed you started actively editing about a week ago. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend at least a month gaining experience editing Wikipedia before assigning you advanced permissions. Thanks, Fastily 20:45, 6 July 2024 (UTC)
Requests for template editor

Template editor

User:Taavi

I've been fixing some dark mode as I spot them, some of those are on template-protected pages and I'd like to fix those directly instead of making edit requests. I don't think I fully meet the standard criteria, but I hope I've already demonstrated elsewhere that I won't go around breaking things that I don't fully understand. Taavi ( talk!) 17:51, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

Standard Guidelines review:
  1. Green tickY (guideline: >1 year, applicant: 5)
  2. Green tickY (guideline: >1000 edits, applicant: ~8k)
  3. Green tickY (guideline: >150 template edits, applicant: ~200)
  4. Green tickY (guideline: !<6 months, applicant: NA)
  5. Green tickY (guideline: 3 sandboxes, applicant: 3)
  6. Red XN (guideline: 5 requests, applicant: 3, plus 1 pending)

Speaking to the request itself, fixing ... as I spot them appears to be a sum total of a single template. Is this something you actually think you will need for the short-term future or are you just guessing? Primefac ( talk) 18:11, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Izno granted this in the meantime, but: I do expect there will be at least some more as I spot things that annoy me. {{ S-note}} and Module:Adjacent stations are the ones I've spent edit requests so far, and the "Route map" headings on some railway-related infoboxes are probably up next. This would be similar to what I've already been doing on Wikitech and in smaller numbers on mw.o and fiwiki. Taavi ( talk!) 18:52, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
