Requests for permissions

Shortcuts WP:PERM WP:RFPERM 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, 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.

If this page has been recently modified, it may not reflect the most recent changes. Please purge this page to view the most recent changes.

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:

• Administrator and bureaucrat access: Requests for administrator or bureaucrat access need to be posted at requests for adminship and requests for bureaucratship, respectively.
• Bots: Request for bot flags should be made at Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval.
• Edit filter: Requests for access to the edit filter manager group and the edit filter helper group should be made at Wikipedia:Edit filter noticeboard.
• Interface administrator: Requests for interface administrator access should be made at Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard. Only current administrators may become interface administrators.
• IP-block-exempt: While the IP-block-exempt right can be granted by administrators, this flag is not handled here. Requests for the IP-block exempt right should be submitted via the Unblock Ticket Request System or, if there are significant privacy concerns, email the checkuser team at checkuser-en-wpwikipedia.org or contact a CheckUser directly.
• CheckUser and Oversight: These rights are only granted by the Arbitration Committee, and only after strict scrutiny. More information can be found here.
• AfC reviewer: This access is granted by administrators at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation/Participants.
• Redirect autopatrol list: Addition to the list is granted by administrators at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Redirect autopatrol list.
• Steward permissions can only be granted in yearly elections, and are rarely given.
• Global permissions such as global renamer, sysop, IP block exempt, rollback, etc should be made at meta:Steward requests/Global 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.

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

Administrators are permitted to grant account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, event coordinator, file mover, mass message sender, 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.

Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights: I have been part of Wikipedia for over 4 years, creating over 70 articles with only 1 deletion, many of them which have ended up on ITNR. I mostly contribute in the politics side of Wikipedia, being focused on creating election pages and politician pages such as PMs, speakers and others. I strive towards English Wikipedia being the information base for politics all over the world. After years of creating articles and receiving constructive feedback on what I should do and not do, I've tried to learn and become better and better at creating pages at the point where they're immediately accepted after review. As I plan to create future articles such as elections, autopatrolled rights would be great, reducing the backlog with automatic acceptance.

I've created over 100 articles without issue now, and I make extensive use of draft space when I know things are not ready for main space. I'm also well familiar with notability requirements, shown by my AfD stats and AfC experience (though I've become less active there lately). I think we could reduce a small piece of NPP burden due to my track record. For what it's worth, I'm also on the Wikipedia:Database reports/Editors eligible for Autopatrol privilege list right now. - 2pou ( talk) 23:46, 22 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

The criteria for this right aren't primarily about article quality (though, as above, that is a factor), but whether it makes sense to autoreview your creations from the perspective of managing the NPP backlog. With your rate of creation, I simply don't see a need to do that.  Not done. –  Joe ( talk) 10:19, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

I regularly write articles and have, so far, created around 69 of them (besides numerous redirects). I don't think it is necessary for new articles that I create to be patrolled, as I'm familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines and there are usually no problems with them (they are always just marked as reviewed).

Hey there! After a few months of reviewing at AfC, patrolling pending changes and recent changes, and contributing content to the article space, I would like to spend some time helping out with the queue of new articles. I have familiarized myself with the various content policies and guidelines that apply to articles through my contributions to the deletion processes, including notability, what Wikipedia is not, and the criteria for speedy deletion.

 Not done Thank you for volunteering @ Pfomma, but I'm afraid we usually look for quite a bit more prior experience in deletion or at WP:AFC before granting this right.

I was granted this permission in February 2023 by User:HJ Mitchell for one month trial but because of my some mistakes, I was revoked by User:Joe Roe (see User talk:LordVoldemort728/Archive 28#New page reviewer) because of some mistakes. As Joe Roe said "You can re-apply for the right at WP:PERM/NPP, but I strongly encourage you not to do so until you have properly familiarised yourself with the relevant policies and guidelines, especially Wikipedia:New pages patrol#Care and WP:DRAFTIFY.", I have now read it all and want to regain this permission. This time I will not make you all sad and try to focus on quality not quantity. Thanks. ​​​​​​​𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐭𝟕𝟐𝟖🧙‍♂️ ^{Let's Talk !} 04:42, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

Updated request from ~1 month ago. I am requesting the new pages patrol permission in order to help mark redirect pages as patrolled. I have been actively participating in WP:RFD as of late. One month ago, I made a similar request and was told to come back after another month or so of active participation. I fully understand the guidelines for what qualifies a redirect, and again would mainly use these permissions to patrol redirects rather than article pages. Thank you!

(Non-admin comment) See User:Lightoil/Draftify log plus three other manual draftifies in August (1), (2), (3). I found no issues regarding WP:NPPHOUR, WP:DRAFTNOTIFY, WP:DRAFTOBJECT. Mostly Lightoil has used the perm in RMs and RM/TR. One talk page desync issue was raised on their talk page, but it is pretty common not to notice that on the rare occasions when it happens. My one bit of feedback to Lightoil is to urge them to do WP:POSTMOVE cleanup after closing an RM as moved (per WP:RMCI#Cleaning up after the move). I'd endorse renewing the perm, which expires in 6 hours. SilverLocust 💬 18:37, 28 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

I am requesting this as I have started making my own articles but many of them are already redirects and thus I always need another user to move them, and I would like to move them myself. I have also had to ask other editors to move categories I have made and this has made it harder to do so, which is another reason I am requesting it. I have moved articles in the past, with my most recent article that I moved being yesterday, when I moved my sandbox to List of Emmerdale characters (2024). Previously, I did make a mistake when I moved my first sandbox to Wiki:List of The Bold and the Beautiful characters (2020s) instead of List of The Bold and the Beautiful characters (2020s), but I quickly corrected it and this made me learn, meaning that the moves that I have done since (including yesterday) have gone smoothly. I have done other moves, such as when I moved List of The Bold and the Beautiful characters (2013) to List of The Bold and the Beautiful characters (2010s) as I merged it with some other pages. When I have moved articles I have ensured that the redirects have been corrected. I have also participated in Move discussions (such as at Ryan McNeil and Lauren Turner) and know the MOS well and naming conventions well. I also know WP:COMMONNAME well due to it being used a lot in the soap opera community due to soap opera characters remarrying a lot and changing their names, which leads to edit wars among users and us reminding newer users/IPs about the importance of using the common name. I would ensure that any controversial moves are discussed first and reach a consensus (or result in "No consensus" and thus do not get moved). I also demonstrated my knowledge of moving pages when List of previous Days of Our Lives cast members was moved without consensus to a non-sensical name and I requested for it to be changed back.

@ HJ Mitchell:May I please ask which more experience I need? I am a bit confused as I have moved pages before and participated in requested moves (another example is Daniel Granger (Doctors), and I would use this for requested moves too. Whilst I can use the tag, it can take a while and also makes it more difficult for the cleanup following the move (e.g. adding the categories and the image and setting up the talk page etc.) and it means I am unable to move categories, and means that I cannot help other editors with moving either. I have knowledge about moving pages and naming conventions too. DaniloDaysOfOurLives ( talk) 14:28, 29 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

from wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes#Criteria to receive this permission (which you should have read already):

1. You have a reasonable editing history – as a guide, enough edits that a track record can be established.
2. You have read our policy on vandalism and understand what is vandalism and what is not.
3. You are familiar with the basic content policies: Biographies of living persons, Neutral point of view, No original research, Verifiability and What Wikipedia is not.
4. You are familiar with the basic legal policy: Wikipedia:Copyrights.
5. You have read the guideline on reviewing.

@ Philipnelson99: Nothing says how long your account has to exist (just that you need to have a good number of mainspace edits, which I do), and also, nothing says that if a request was declined, you can't ask again for 90 days even if you've made a good number of edits since the last one.

well for one, 96% of your edits are not in the biography of living persons category... But an admin will determine your fitness for this permission shortly.

I have been editing Wikipedia for 5 years and my knowledge of the MOS, notability, sourcing and other policies has also expanded hugely over the past year, with myself having made my first 4 articles. There have been many instances where I have requested page protection for pages due to constant vandalism. Additionally, when users have edit warred, I have started discussions on the relevant articles to sort it out and prevent further edit wars. I routinely edit and I check the pages that I watch, and thus often quickly find and revert vandalism. I also have requested for revisions to be hidden from public view when offensive material has been published, such as at the Mpox related articles in 2022. One of the main places where I would use this permission is List of Coronation Street characters, which has pending changes due to unsourced content being repeatedly added - for the past few years, various IPs have added the same unsourced vandalism continuously. I am also used to copyright violations, as I have witnessed not only editors (mainly IPs) copy and pasting paragraphs from other websites, but also editors stealing other people's contributions/work without attribution, and thus I would look out for that.

I would like to be able to accept these edits so they can become visible to anonymous readers more quickly. Thanks for your attention!

I've editing Wikipedia for couple of years and have experience in areas of article reviewing and have a track record of fighting vandalism. I have read Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes#Becoming a reviewer and have knowledge of what qualifies for an article, aswell as policies related to vandalism, notability and sourcing. This right will allow me to fight vandalism and unconstructive edits on Wikipedia. Ratnahastin ( talk) 13:29, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

I recently got rollback, and would like to be able to accept good edits so they go live faster. DrowssapSMM ( talk) ( contributions) 16:36, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

Rollback

I have been fighting vandalism for around a month with the help of RedWarn (already 1000+ edits of that type), and would like to have rollback permissions to be able to access more powerful tools like Huggle to do it more efficiently. Thanks a lot! ChaotıċEnby( t · c) 20:26, 26 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

Last time I came to request rollback permissions I think I had around 120 mainspace edits. Now, I'm up to just over 500 in mainspace with 943 in total at the time of writing. Most of those edits have been anti-vandalism using Twinkle, as such I'm looking for rollback permissions in order to be able to test out other tools such as Huggle and AntiVandal in the hopes of them making the work a little easier.

 Not done I sampled your recent reverts and found numerous instances where you are reverting good faith edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4). To be clear, none of these edits contsitute vandalism. 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; I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or RedWarn which make this very easy. 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. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges before reapplying. Thanks, FASTILY 23:02, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

I requested rollback rights a little over a month ago and I am again requesting rollback rights due to the fact that I still regularly revert vandalism. It would help speed up the rate at which I revert vandalism. Nagol0929 ( talk) 15:42, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply

 Not done You've barely reverted any vandalism since I declined your previous request. Please spend at least a month actively patrolling Special:RecentChanges before making another request. - FASTILY 23:02, 27 November 2023 (UTC) Reply reply
