Autopatrolled

(add requestview requests)
I'd like to request autopatrolled rights for User:WikiOriginal-9. He has created nearly 400 new articles and has proven himself to be a reliable contributor to Wikipedia, particularly in the subject area of American football. Jweiss11 (talk) 18:32, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The first random pick I made from WikiOriginal-9's page creations was a stub with no substantive content. The second was Johnny Karras, where the entirety of the "College career" section (and thus, most of the article) was a very close, unquoted, WP:PARAPHRASE from the cited source. Just a note to the reviewing admin. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 20:26, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. I share similar concerns to Demiurge's, and the majority of the articles appear to be BLPs with questionable sourcing. I know it can be difficult to find high-quality sources for such articles, but I wouldn't be comfortable granting this permission in such circumstances.

Has made 53 stubs on European roads. I dream of horses (T) @ 05:33, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. I took a selection of half a dozen articles and none contained inline citations, what sources there were were dubious and formatted as external links, and the articles contained no encyclopaedic information that couldn't have been gleaned from the title.

Requesting autopatrolled rights for myself. Past article creation has been conservative as I learned over the past few years but has been increasing over the last year. Understanding of MOS, referencing, guidelines & policies and actively volunteer in DR venues, discussion at RS/N as well as content creation. Mark Miller (talk) 00:38, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Your articles are generally excellent but I cannot give you 'autopatrolled' until some issues have been resolved. In particular, a random check already shows that Curia (ancient Roman meeting house), Wardrobe (clothing), Scaenae frons, Rocky Horror sequels and other media, Sue Blane, Eirene (Rome character), Cleopatra (Rome character) are either completely unreferenced or tagged for issues regarding sources. When you have addressed these and any others thsat may still need attention, please make a new request. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:37, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks.--Mark Miller (talk) 03:30, 29 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
