I first registered this account - my first - April 20, 2007. Since then, I've gotten involved pretty deeply in AfD work. I see it as a chance to triage articles that are flawed, but may yet have potential. If you need access to a Wikipedia article that has been deleted, ask me. If it's not a copyright violation, libel, or personal information, and has not been deleted as a suspected biographies of living persons violation, I will userfy the article for you.

Note that using the text to recreate any deleted article may automatically qualify them for speedy deletion, and copies of previously deleted content that are being used solely for long-term archival purposes may be subject to deletion because Wikipedia is not a free web host. We have a list of alternative sites which may be used to host your content.

I maintain a sock account AVPW primarily for use on public networks. In the event of a compromised account, I specifically request any administrator to honor a request from AVPW to block this account, and absolve you in advance of any repercussions.

    Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]

    Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

    Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no 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 archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

    Current requests for edits to a protected page[edit]

    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 {{Edit COI}} 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.

    Autopatrolled[edit]

    User:Britfilm[edit]

    Patroller Usedtobecool thinks this individual would be a good fit for autopatrolled. Britfilm has 600 articles in the past year (~80 in the queue right now) and I am not seeing any deletion controversies. Articles are not massive but they're using proper sources and I don't see what NPRs can do except marking them reviewed. I have no comment on this and am just copying it over. –Novem Linguae (talk) 02:08, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

    Britfilm, is Henry C. James work in progress or are you done with it? Schwede66 19:14, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

    Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights Hello. I have been nominated for becoming a new page reviewer based on my edits. I believe based on my number of page creations and track record I fit the criteria for having my account becoming autopatrolled. Rahammz (talk) 13:44, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

    @Rahammz, you already made request one time. Have patience. I have informed this matter at AN page. An admin will do the needful but since it's a huge backlog, admins can't watch all of our request at one day. ☮️Counter-Strike:Mention 269🕉️(🗨️✉️📔) 01:08, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Tapmani[edit]

    I have created many clean pages without maintenance tags on them. This of course wasn't easy as I had to spend months learning how to create pages by visiting the Teahouse (a place without a sip of tea) to avoid embarrassing and suffocating the pages I create with maintenance tags overdose. Having this right will help improve this encyclopedia and lessen the work of those who review new articles. Tapmani (talk) 09:19, 8 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Hemmers[edit]

    Hi, Have created >50 articles (mostly BLP), which are clean and not burdened with maintenance tags. Main focus is filling in redlinks of medalists on articles such as 2018 ISSF World Shooting Championships (World Champ medallists tick the box on WP:SPORTSPERSON, easy mode for notability and generally end up with plenty of independent coverage). I don't want to burden the backlog with uncontroversial articles. Admittedly my work does tend to be short and to the point. But clean, with good infoboxes and enough independent coverage to be uncontroversial. Thanks. Hemmers (talk) 17:22, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Nataev[edit]

    Good day! I keep receiving notifications about pages that I created a while ago and started to wonder if I should seek autopatrolled rights to lessen the burden of NPP reviewers. I've been contributing to WMF projects since 2009. Here on enwiki, I've made over 9,000 edits and created over 90 pages. Of them, only four were deleted -- three were later re-created by me and kept, and one test template was deleted at my own request. I primarily write about Central Asia's culture, geography, and history. Some of my latest contributions include copy-editing and updating the entry on Queen's University at Kingston and turning a redirect page into a proper article about the highly important Andijan Reservoir. I already have autopatrolled rights on ruwiki, trwiki, and Commons and have had advanced rights on uzwiki since 2012. Admittedly, since I'm active on so many projects, my contributions tend to be short, but I have a solid grasp of notability guidelines. Nataev talk 19:39, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

    In the meantime, I've created three more entries on fairly important subjects: Isfana River, Samat Sadykov Park, and Ay-Kul. Nataev talk 16:40, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
     Done Nice work; very clean articles across different topic areas. I appreciate that you set up redirects and link to Wikidata as well. I've pinged you a couple of times about minor things. In addition, there is an unreferenced section at Nabi Rahimov that needs your attention. Keep up the good work! Schwede66 19:09, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
    Thank you! Well noted on the minor issues and the Rahimov article. Nataev talk 19:53, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Academia45[edit]

    When patrolling a page they've started, I noted its excellent quality, and in reviewing their contributions I note that this has been a consistent pattern. Klbrain (talk) 08:47, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

    Thanks for the feedback Klbrain! It is very kind of you. Academia45 (talk) 09:16, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
    I've had a look at a selection of articles. They look well-sourced, well-formatted, well-written. However, Academia45 recently opened a dispute resolution request after another editor raised concerns around neutrality on Talk:Elihu Yale. The talk page is difficult to read, as it has formatting issues from both editors, and a dearth of signatures. Given that the Yale family is Academia's prime interest for new articles, I feel somewhat uncomfortable on a decision here before DR has provided clarity. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 18:55, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Frzzl[edit]

    Came across this user while patrolling, and am nicely impressed. With 43 articles created, Frzzl already has multiple GAs from their own creations. Among their last 38 page creations, only one has been a stub, and most are C-class. Frzzl's only deletion was their first ever page tagged as G2; in other words, no problems that I can tell. I feel confident in the creations so far. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:14, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Knightoftheswords281[edit]

    Saw this user while patrolling. Knightoftheswords has done a great job at building up articles on all sorts of current topics, from the humble beginnings up to generally B and C class articles across the board. They've created 29 so far with zero deletions... besides one that shows up in XTools, which was due to a now-blocked user moving Knight's draft on the Whatever (podcast) into mainspace against Knight's wishes, to which Knight can't be faulted for (as they confirmed this during the associated AfD). With all else being equal, I feel like their creations have all been solidly put together, even if it takes a few edits to get there, and they have a good understanding of writing articles and policy. Utopes (talk / cont) 06:45, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

    @WizardGamer775 Really don't know. Other people who have come after and before me have become accepted, so I'm not sure. Mseingth2133444 (talk/contribs) 14:27, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Waylon111[edit]

    Here's the criteria I have for being a Pending Changes Reviewer:

    1. I have a account 3 years old (although I have started picking up editing beginning November 2023)

    2. I think I have a good editing history, and a good track record.

    3. I understand what's vandalism and what isn't (accidentally misspelling a word during your edit is in good faith, but doing things like changing the date of a movie from 2024 to 1956 is vandalism)

    4. I know the basic policies, WP:BLP, WP:V, WP:!, WP:NOR, and WP:NPOV.

    5. I know that you cannot violate the Copyright policy. (WP:C)

    6.I understand the guidelines on reviewing.

    But, you may ask, why do I want this permission? My answer is, to help people out on Wikipedia. If someone makes a edit that might not be correct, I could correct them on their edit. And I would like to use this tool to help "implode vandals", as the cool kids say. :) Waylon (he was here) (Does my editing suck? Let's talk.) (Also, not to brag, but...) 03:27, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

    Just a suggestion, but continually republishing your request will make your request go through slower, not faster. Also, if the bot is wrong, let it be wrong. TheTechie (formerly Mseingth2133444) (t/c) 16:08, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

    Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights Rydex64 (talk) 16:09, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Reaper1945[edit]

    1. Iwould say I have a track record of good edits on Wikipedia.

    2. Along with that, I am extended-confirmed, with my account dating back to fall of 2020 and 3,708 edits as of this post.

    3. Vandalism is something I see quite often throughout my time on Wikipedia, especially with new articles, but even on old ones where people do not usually go or think to check. I have dealt with what I can of these edits.

    4. Throughout my time on here, I have become familiar with the basic content policies, including neutral point of view, no original research, verifiability and what Wikipedia is not.

    5. I'm familiar with copyright on WP.

    6. I have gone through and read the guidelines on reviewing.

    With all of these reasons and my experience on here, I am requesting this permission.Reaper1945 (talk) 01:36, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:WikiHuman2021[edit]

    I have a good track record of edits on Wikipedia currently standing at over 6700+ edits.

    I am extended-confirmed, with loads of experience with editing over the past 3 years.

    Daily I deal with vandalism and am fully aware about what is vandalism and what is not by identifying and reporting numerous instances of vandalism.

    I am familiar with BLP, NPOV, NOR, Verification, and what WP is not.

    I am familiar with copyright on WP.

    I have fully read and understand the guidelines on reviewing.

    Kindly requesting permission because of these reasons. WikiHuman2021 (talk) 01:05, 27 March 2024 (UTC)


    Rollback[edit]

    User:Rydex64[edit]

    I'm actively patrolling Vandalism, Disruptive editing and spam edits through RecentChanges. I use RedWarn to revert the vandalism or any unwanted changes and notify editors when reverting their edits on their User page. I usually keep an eye out on new users and unregistered users. I don't have any recent history of edit warring either. Looking forward to keeping Wikipedia articles safer as a Rollbacker. Thank you. 𝓡𝔂𝓭𝓮𝔁 13:57, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

     Not done I noticed you started actively reverting vandalism several days ago. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend more time gaining experience fighting vandalism before assigning you advanced permissions. Keep up the good work, and consider reapplying in a month. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits (I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy). Thanks, Fastily 21:59, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:Lionel Cristiano[edit]

    Hello, I'm trying to undo vandal changes, I know the rollback rules as I have this right on other wikis. My previous request was denied because I didn't warn users, then I started warning users. @Fastily Lionel Cristiano? 17:55, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

     Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([2]). MusikBot talk 18:00, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
     Not done You've barely made any reverts since I declined your previous request. Also that's not true, you're still not warning users (e.g. 1, 2) -Fastily 23:31, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
    @Fastily Sometimes I forget. I'm also trying to find a suitable alert template. Lionel Cristiano? 00:45, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
    I tried to warn users. (1, 2, 3) Lionel Cristiano? 01:01, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
    You shouldn't have to spend a lot of time to "find a suitable alert template". Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 01:14, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
    I know but I don't quite understand how to use it. Lionel Cristiano? 05:33, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
    Both have detailed manuals, perhaps you should start with reading those. -Fastily 07:25, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

    User:TheGreatestLuvofAll[edit]

    I have reverted vandalism from IPs and users who made tests, added unsourced content, and making purely disruptive edits to articles here. I have been doing this for about a month now. TheGreatestLuvofAll (talk) 15:44, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

    I am disinclined to grant this; it was suggested to you that you should have this permission but I don't really see any evidence of you needing it. While you have made more than the indicated two TPERs (I count 5-6), they are simple/trivial updates and thus I have not added them into the guideline count. In other words: are you simply making this request because someone said you should, or do you think you actually need this permission? Primefac (talk) 13:30, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

      Est omnino difficile iudicare inclusionis meritum cuiusdam rei in encyclopædia cum ratio sciendi quid populi referat incerta sit, sed nihilominus aliquid encyclopædiam dedecet

      It is generally difficult to judge the worthiness of a particular topic for inclusion in an encyclopedia considering that there is no certain way to know what interests people, but some topics nevertheless are not fit for an encyclopedia.

      This motto reflects the desire of these Wikipedians to be reluctant, but not entirely unwilling, to remove articles from Wikipedia.
