    Current requests for reduction in protection level

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Only post below if you receive no (favourable) 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 rolling archive if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.


    Current requests for edits to a protected page

    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 {{request edit}} 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.

    Reason for requesting extended confirmed rights Elialonzocruz (talk) 06:42, 23 March 2023 (UTC) Hello, I am requesting to be able to correct the information written on President Bongbong Marcos' page. There have been many cases where trolls added some false information about the President of the Philippines, some are also opinionated and below the belt.

    I cannot edit the page because I am not allowed. I hope you can give me access so I can correct the information.

    Elialonzocruz, you can just make an edit request on the article talk page. Zippybonzo | Talk (he|him) 07:25, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

    I often upload files and I’ve made mistakes in the naming in the past and had to request for a name change so I’d like to have the perms for things I upload incase I make a mistake. I’d also love to help others who make mistakes in the naming. I scroll though uploaded images often and I’d definitely fix mistakes if I see them. ✠ Robertus Pius ✠ (TalkContribs) 02:22, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

    User:InterstellarGamer12321

    I have made over 10000 edits to Wikipedia, and I am currently an AfC reviewer. I also participate regularly at RfD and sometimes at AfD. I would like to become a new page reviewer and I am fine with a one-month trial. InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 07:25, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

     Not done. I'm not seeing any track record in identifying problematic articles for deletion, like experience of CSD tagging. And most of your AfD comments seem to be along the lines of "per above", which doesn't demonstrate a detailed understanding of notability requirements. I'd suggest giving it a month or so and meanwhile applying a few CSD tags (especially for G10/11/12) and making some more substantial comments at AfD with regards to sourcing and notability. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:58, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
    Thanks for the feedback. Do you have any recommendations for categories which link to problematic articles which I could improve or nominate for a deletion process? InterstellarGamer12321 (talk | contribs) 17:01, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
    You could try patrolling the old-style Special:NewPages, or Special:RecentChanges. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 18:24, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
    There's also Special:NewPagesFeed (you can view the feed and nominate articles for deletion even if you're not a reviewer) as well as Category:All articles with topics of unclear notability. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 05:53, 23 March 2023 (UTC)

    Pending changes reviewer

    User:Apaugasma

    Although I spend a lot of time patrolling, PC protection is so rare that I've never really needed it until now. With one of the articles I heavily steward (Abu Lu'lu'a Firuz) now undergoing an experiment with PC, it would be good to be able to mark good-faith edits as reviewed. I have read Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes, and I've been familiar with all the relevant policies for quite some time. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ) 13:36, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

    Rollback will aid with quickly reverting obvious vandalism on articlespace, userspace, and Wiki-space. Having edited Wikipedia since 2006 and possessing a clean block log, I believe I possess the necessary judgment and self-discipline required to use rollback for counter-vandalism purposes.
