Autopatrolled

(add requestview requests)
Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights I went on a wikibreak from my old account User:Jonverve, forgot the password and created this new account. From Jonverve I created 36 articles and 15 articles with this account, primarily about aeronautics and space. Nasa-verve (talk) 20:56, 31 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Done; great articles :). Ironholds (talk) 22:07, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I've created 54 new articles (50 excluding redirects and disambiguation pages) in the past few months, mostly biographies in the fields of politics and law in the United States and Japan. I am familiar with Wikipedia's guidelines and most of my articles have been certified as clean. I would like to help relieve some of the backlog on the new pages feed by becoming an autopatrolled user. Thank you. Geo47 (talk) 03:33, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Pretty good articles, and well-referenced, so consider this  Done. Having said that, I really advise you to provide more metadata with your citations (publisher, access date..) through things like the "cite web" template - and to avoid bare URLs for PDF files.

Well, I don't know what to say, check my user page and then decide whether or not to grant me an auto patrol rights. I have thousands of stubs on insects, fish, various flora, and biographies. However, if its fine, I will only use it on my stubs, and anything above a stub will be someone else's job, since bigger texts confuse me... I'm thanking everyone in advance!--Mishae (talk) 02:18, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Done; you meet the autopatrolled conditions. I would suggest, however, that you go over the grammar and spelling in future articles you create - I've noticed a couple of (small) mistakes in the last few :). Happy to provide another set of eyeballs if you want to poke me when you write something new. Ironholds (talk) 22:16, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I create quite a few pages, and would like to have this flag to help reduce the amount of workload that others have to do when they go through the new page patrols. Thanks! Razorflame 17:07, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. You last created an article four years ago; while it is brilliantly referenced, that's largely thanks to contributions by later editors - ditto articles created before that. If you want the autopatrolled userright you need to (a) create articles, in the present tense, and (b) do a lot better at citing sources in a consistent and reliable way. If you meet these conditions I'm happy to reconsider. Ironholds (talk) 22:13, 4 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank for for the consideration! Razorflame 23:59, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
