Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level

Request addition of protection to a page, or increasing the current protection level

Reason: Proactively requesting Template Protection to keep this bot from being abused. phuzion (talk) 18:34, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Can you go into more detail about the use case for this page? Template protection is not typically used on non-template pages. I'm happy to semi-protect or ECP if you think that would be sufficient, but I'd like a little more detail if this page needs template protection specifically. RunningOnBrains(talk) 17:11, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
Sure thing. The intention is that this bot will be used to mass-update template parameters on articles transcluding a template, once the deprecation code has been removed. When a template's parameters are updated, there is often deprecation code that is inserted into the template, allowing both the old and new parameter names to be used. Eventually, the usage of the old deprecated parameters is cleaned up, and the deprecation code is removed. However, for many reasons, occasionally those old, no longer functioning parameters will occasionally get re-introduced into the template. (Reverts, long-time wiki editors not realizing that the parameter has changed, etc.)
This bot will take the mapping of |old_parameter= → |new_parameter=, and when it sees any instances of |old_parameter=, it will replace it with |new_parameter=. The page that I'm requesting template editor protection on is used as an index to point to subpages with approved revisions. This prevents the bot from being used for vandalism. While I like to assume good faith, the possibility for abuse is great, and template editor protection will, in my opinion, greatly help with preventing said abuse.
Template protection was chosen because it is a relatively small, trusted group of editors, and there is precedent for bot configs to be protected with this level of protection. As always, happy to answer any further questions that may come up. Thanks! phuzion (talk) 23:10, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Indefinite extended protection: WP:RUSUKR related bludgeoning by temporary accounts. TylerBurden (talk) 10:26, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Nowhere enough to justify protecting a talk page, much less doing it EC-indef. Daniel Case (talk) 22:07, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent disruptive editing. Several editors, but one in particular, regularly add "civil servant" to this article and sometimes to other articles about Chief Mousers. Larry is not and never has been a civil servant. Cameron once said that he was a civil servant's cat, and that seems to have been when the myth started. Psychomike (talk) 15:11, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Seems to get this sort of edit once every couple of weeks, and the editors on the article have this under control. Might be better dealt with through an editnotice and an inline comment. Daniel Case (talk) 23:01, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Verity RFPP request #8. I know its only 2 vandals in a day but given how annoying this meme is I think that this is enough. Toketaatalk 18:34, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. "it's an annoying meme" is not a valid reason for protection under the protection policy. If disruption continues, please re-request. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:45, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Indefinite extended confirmed protection: Arbitration enforcement – CTOPS - EE. Tbhotch™ (CC BY-SA 4.0) 22:57, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Extended confirmed–protected for a period of one week, after which the page will revert to its previous protection level if it is still in effect, or become unprotected otherwise. aka until the ECP on Hashim Thaçi expires, treating these four as a group. @Tbhotch:, in cases where a CT or GS does not mandate extended conformed protection (i.e. any that are not PIA, GS/AA, GS/KURD, or RUSUKR), please do not just say "CTOPS" as your reason for requesting protection, as that is an invalid reason to request. Please detail exactly why the article needs protection. Thank you. - The Bushranger One ping only 23:39, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Request removal of protection from a page, or reducing the current protection level

Unprotection: 150 average page views, protected before PC existed, inactive admin, change to temp PC to trial this. Toketaatalk 15:53, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Courcelles has been active within the past year. I'd ping him at least as a courtesy. Daniel Case (talk) 02:52, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
@Courcelles. Toketaatalk 12:36, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

Unprotection: Averages 5 daily page views, protected in 2011, lock is unneeded, protecting admin inactive. Toketaatalk 16:06, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent vandalism – Requesting reduction in protection to pending changes, page was inf semi-protected over 3 years ago. The page also desperately needs updates and allowing more people to submit edits may help solve this. Szxq (talk) 05:21, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

@Ferret: Szxq (talk) 05:25, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

Reason: Hello, I would like to request the removal of protection from the article about Robbie Williams. This article has been protected for over 15 years—a very long time—and I believe it is worth testing whether such protection is still necessary. A similar case is the article about Elton John, where protection was recently lifted after many years. Given that the Elton John article can now be edited without restriction, I think it would be reasonable to allow a trial period without protection for the Robbie Williams article as well, and to monitor whether any serious vandalism or other content disruption occurs. Should problems arise again, protection could, of course, be reinstated. Thank you for your time and for considering this request. Buldok465 (talk) 14:07, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Reason: The page was protected by a now inactive administrator in 2017 for a sort-of-preemptive reason, and very little to no vandalism has occurred since then. So why is this page still semi-protected? MathMan4 (talk) 23:32, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Reason: This page has been protected since I don't know when it was protected, seems like to me there hasn't been any vandalism since then per WP:PROTECTIONLEVEL and I seriously doubt no sock has been vandalizing parts when it was first protected. --~2026-47089-17 (talk) 22:52, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Not done As the notice in bold text at the top says when you made this request: DO NOT request a reduction in protection if... ...your reasoning for reducing protection is that the article has not been vandalized. That simply means the protection is working as intended.. The Bushranger One ping only 23:34, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

"Talk:2026 Iran war" intends to link to an article by Roya News called: Wikipedia labels outcome of 2026 Iran war as “Iranian victory”

However, the link is wrong, presumably it's a copy and paste error.

Here is the link that appears in the page: https://en.royanews.tv/news/70897/Trump-slams-'Dumocrat'-rumors-of-%24300-billion-payout-to-Iran

And here is the correct link: https://en.royanews.tv/news/70905/Wikipedia-labels-outcome-of-2026-Iran-war-as-%E2%80%9CIranian-victory%E2%80%9D

Please correct the link. Thanks in advance. ~2026-51973-86 (talk) 16:29, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Requests for autopatrolled

Autopatrolled

[edit]

Hello! I mainly create and improve articles about Latvia/Eastern Europe on English Wikipedia - particularly on culture, institutions and infrastructure. I also have autopatrolled status on Latvian and Russian Wikipedia.

My articles include Purvītis Prize, Latvian Architecture Award, National Design Award of Latvia, Latvian School Youth Song and Dance Festival and LAMPA Conversation Festival. I also developed Sadales tīkls, improving its sourcing after feedback and submitting the revised draft through AfC. Now it's in mainspace.

Alongside new articles, I have rewritten Culture of Latvia, Parachuting and Wingsuit flying, and expanded articles such as Riga Motor Museum and Museum of the History of Riga and Navigation. These are improvements to existing articles, not new ones.

I would like to request autopatrolled permission to reduce the routine workload for new page reviewers. Thanks for considering my request :) MargaritaPLV (talk) 12:44, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

 Not done per above. Sohom (talk) 13:12, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Hi there! Please consider my request for the Autopatrolled permission. My application is purely for reducing the load on the new pages patrol backlog. My first edit was back in 2008, however it was from 2022 when I started editing in volume. I have c. 6,500 edits on English Wikipedia, and have created 86 articles and a number of redirects. None of my creations have been deleted. My understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines was not great at the beginning, however this has been increasing steadily over time. To support my application - please do also review my AfD participation which shows contribution to several hundred discussions. If it helps, I have 11 DYKs and have participated in two Unreferenced articles backlog drives. ResonantDistortion 23:05, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) +1 XTools records 86 live, non-redirect article creations and no deleted ones. I sampled RD's (permit me to call you that) recent work, including DJ Seduction, Ed Real, Pants & Corset, Resonate (album series), Guyver (DJ), The Samurai Seven, Pussy Crush, JAAW, Ellen Kent and Corvin Dalek. These are generally substantial, neutrally written and supported by appropriate independent sources; I also just marked some as reviewed myself while checking.
The only very very minor thing I saw was that an uncited family information was removed from the BLP Graeme Blick in May 2025. But that is not by any chance in hell representative of RD's current work. RD has created 29 further non-redirect articles since that correction, with no deletion or comparable patrol problem. And by the way, the eleven DYK appearances and recent sourcing work is a plus for RD because it tells us that RD is familiar with verifiability, copyright, notability and what have you. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 14:00, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
Thank you @Vanderwaalforces. Apologies about the Graeme Blick issue, there was some confusion about the family but ultimately this was caused by my misreading of a source. I've been more careful since. ResonantDistortion 16:59, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Requests for extended confirmation

Extended confirmed

[edit]

I am requesting the restoration of my Extended Confirmed rights.

My previous request from September 6th wasn't approved by voorts based on generic claims ("This request seems LLM-generated to me" and "There are several AI tells in your request"), but when I explicitly asked what those tells were, no explanation or text examples were provided.

I need to state clearly again: I do not use AI. English is not my native language, and my use of dictionaries and Google Translate to verify phrasing is what triggers false positives on automated detectors. This is not the first time this has happened to me, and I face a lot of unfair suspicion on Wikipedia as a result. Ignoring a non-native speaker's explanation and leaving generic AI accusations unexplained does not align with community values.

A major reason I need this permission is to access the Content Translation tool. I have manually translated and created over 30 articles on this wiki, and not having this tool limits my ability to contribute.

I have carefully reviewed past administrator feedback regarding extended confirmed requirements after a revocation and implemented them before submitting this request. Following the expected standard, I have focused strictly on manual, constructive work in the mainspace. Since losing the permission (at around 560 edits), I have made over 570 additional manual, documented, and productive edits in the mainspace, bringing my current total to over 1,130 edits.

My recent notable contributions include researching and creating Non ædificandi from scratch and expanding Impasse Florimont, which was manually cleaned up, reviewed, and upgraded to B-Class status.

I am NOT using LLMs. I am a REAL human editor who wishes to continue contributing to the English Wikipedia, and I am asking to please restore my Extended Confirmed rights.

Thank you. The Regulator 1 (talk) 11:53, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

I rarely use LLM detectors. I'm not sharing what the tells are because then you would know how to avoid them. Another admin will evaluate this request on its merits and see if I was wrong. voorts (talk/contributions) 12:58, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
Also, you don't need XC to translate articles. You can translate to draft and then move the page to mainspace yourself or submit it through AfC. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:47, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
Can you please contribute without the use of a translation tool? Sufficient English competence is required to edit on the English Wikipedia. If your English is not good enough to write articles or talk with other editors without the use of translation tools, I would suggest editing on your native language's wiki. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:49, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
(Non-administrator comment) Based on my impressions, it looks like this user probably wrote the request by hand in their native language, and then used an AI translation tool to translate it to English. Maayaaaaa (talk) 13:39, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Nomadwikiholic1, could you comment on your reviews of Don't Be Shy (film), IIZ: Indian Institute of Zombies, and Uttar Da Puttar? signed, Rosguill talk 15:07, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
Whenever I review a page before adding any tag, I try to search for additional references on Google to cross-check the subject's notability. While reviewing Everybody Loves Sohrab Handa, I received a phone call and, by mistake, marked Don't Be Shy (film) as reviewed as well. I accept that this was my mistake, and I sincerely apologize for it. For IIZ: Indian Institute of Zombies, there are multiple reviews from SIRS such as Review by Firstpost, Review by Koimoi, Review by DNA India, Review by Times of India, based on these reviews I have marked the page as reviewed. The same applies to Uttar Da Puttar, which has multiple reviews from SIRS, including Review by Times of India , Review by Bhaskar, Review Abp News , based on these reviews I have marked the page as reviewed.I have mentioned these sources on the talk pages of the films. However, I did not write anything on the talk page of Don't Be Shy (film). I acknowledge that the page was marked as reviewed by mistake, and I am genuinely sorry for the error. Nomadwikiholic1 (talk) 16:31, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
Thanks for the explanations, with that in mind I'm comfortable conferring the permissions indefinitely. I'll note that for cases like Don't Be Shy (film), you can un-review the article yourself and add it back to the queue if your marking it reviewed was an error. In this case I've gone ahead and unreviewed it already, so no further action needed on your part. signed, Rosguill talk 16:57, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

Thank you Nomadwikiholic1 (talk) 18:02, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

I have now done quite a lot on AFC and reviewed quite a few articles, showing that I understand content policies. Furthermore, if you look at my interactions, you can see that I have always acted civilly and resolved any disputes. From my Counter Vandalism Work, you can see that I always inform a user when I revert their edit; the same happens with AFC (through the AFC helper).

I would primarily like this role as a counter-vandalism tool so that I can remove pages that are obviously vandalism, as I think that this is an important thing to do. I would also review other pages in order to help ease the backlog.

I would finally like to thank anyone who reviews this request.

Cheers,

based on your AFC track record, conferring for 1 month as a trial run, after which you may reapply  Done signed, Rosguill talk 14:37, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

I have created about 34 AfDs and participated in many more, while also creating about 32 mainspace articles (along with about a few hundred redirects). I am not afraid to say that some of these AfDs have failed, and some of my pages created were eventually deleted, as all in all, I believe these have helped me develop an adequate understanding over time of important policy, especially things like WP:GNG, to make me suitable for this role. As someone who is very active on Wikipedia on a daily basis, I believe I can provide worthwhile help in the backlog that new page reviewers face. Thank you in advance for your consideration. Red0ctober22 (talk) 16:55, 26 September 2026 (UTC)

 Done for 1 month as a trial run. While a 48% AFD match rate is lower than would typically qualify, it is mitigated by a large portion of those missed calls being discussions that you initially opened, then withdrew following the presentation of sources. signed, Rosguill talk 14:39, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

I’ve been doing more work with new pages and drafts lately and would like to help with reviewing them. I have 1,630 edits and have been an editor on Wikipedia for about 9 years.

I had a NPP trial previously but unfortunately I got blocked during the last trial for 48 hours on the 2 December 2025 due to edit warring I did(not in the npp work I was doing but I still understand what I did was wrong.) As I understand I made a mistake I have spent the past months since my trial showing I have learnt from my error focusing on making edits to improve Wikipedia and not engaging in any edit wars whatsoever. I would like to request to have my permisions renewed as I think I have demonstrated I learnt from my mistakes and will not repeat them maybe as another trial if necessarry.

I've been interested in helping out the new page reviewing backlog. I have plenty of experience at Articles for Deletion, nominating articles I've come across and participating in various discussions. Although I haven't been correct on all of them, the ones I've gotten wrong have taught me more about the various policies that make up Wikipedia. Furthermore, I've written a few articles, getting one to good article status, that I hope to bring up to featured article status in the future. I have plenty of more articles planned that I'll get to when I have time. I hope to use these experiences to help with NPR. Thank you. Bungle491 (talk) 00:43, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

Good call. See Wikipedia:Help desk#Do I need a fresh start? Am I permitted to?. Saying that the admin who calmly declined a request for advance permissions and provided valid reasons for doing so "isn’t acting rationally" and "Your judgment is flawed and you’ve been very pig headed here" does not give me a lot of confidence in that editor's judgement. --Guy Macon (talk) 16:53, 27 September 2026 (UTC)

Requests for rollback

Rollback

[edit]

Reason for requesting rollback rights: I would like to use huggle to revert vandalism in a quicker manner as i find wp:twinkle a bit too slow sometimes and would like too see if I would prefer huggle or other similar editing tools. Jabba550  | ✉ in solidarity 13:52, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Hello, the rollback button would be very useful to reduce unnecessary time dealing with vandalism due to retribution edits from trolls/vandals on this wiki caused by admin or CU actions from me in other wikis I have these extended rights in (dewiki, CU since 2022 and admin since 2016). Sometimes I also come across clear crosswiki vandalism (especially as CU), for which rollback would be nice to have. Excessively experienced with rollback policy in dewiki as an admin who regularly needs to remind the folks over there to abide by the policy, which in its basics is the same as here. I politely ask you for trusting my experience and therefore granting the right, thanks. - Squasher (talk) 12:26, 25 September 2026 (UTC)

Reason for requesting rollback rights: I’ve been an RC patroller for better part of a year now. Rollback rights will help me counter vandalism more effectively, especially when I have to undo contributions of editors with a disruptive editing history, editors with single-purpose COI accounts, and editors who have been blocked. I’d also like to use the suite of tools that rollback rights come with including CVPI and Huggle. I will not use rollback rights to settle content disputes (I don’t get into many either way). I hope that my main space contributions so far, and my experience with the platform + RC patrol will attest to my intentions. Thanks! Baberoothless (talk) 15:46, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
