This ip is vandalising and making unhelpful edits in East Pakistan and West Pakistan. Everytime I reverted, it did the same thing and engaged in edit war. I warned the ip. But the ip removed my message (see here). It is also removing warnings of other editors, see here. It is clear that the ip is very aware about Wikipedia rules and it is know about Wikipedia very well. But they are on total denial. They are also using other ip.

Request protection of a page, or increasing the protection level

Place requests for new or upgrading pending changes, semi-protection, full protection, move protection, create protection, template editor protection, or upload protection at the BOTTOM of this section. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.


Talk:Dadvan Yousuf

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Persistent disruptive editing by IPs, likely sock or meatpupperty. The article itself is already EC protected for the same issue. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 14:33, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. I'm not seeing many reverted edits, the best sign of talk page disruption. Daniel Case (talk) 02:21, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

2024 South African general election

Reason: Edit warring in results. Borgenland (talk) 06:20, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Nikita Mazepin

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism. LilianaUwU (talk / contributions) 07:17, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Abdul Basit 'Abd us-Samad

Reason: Extended-Confirmed Protection:

The page keeps being targeted by Kurdish Nationalists imposing and enforcing a false identity on a famous Upper Egyptian figure, even though his own son denied that foreign rumor repeatedly in TV interviews, yet new accounts keep ruining his biography and enforcing something the family has never stated. Fragrant Peony (talk) 07:18, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

President of the Philippines

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – There's a slow-motion vandalism in this article. It gets reverted, then someone days later brings back the vandalized version (probably the same person under variable IP). As this is is slow-motion vandalism, slapping templated notices to talk pages are of no use. Howard the Duck (talk) 07:36, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Canaan Dog

Reason: Consistent vandalism due to dog breed being from Israel as well as being mentioned as being found in Palestine. Not sure if the whole Israel/Palestine restrictions extend to stuff like this but there should at least be autoconfirmed protection. [2] [3] [4] [5] Since February there has been one edit that hasn't been vandalism/reverting vandalism. Traumnovelle (talk) 08:11, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Lamine Yamal

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Same issue as before, different IPs adding some variant of the peacock phrase "widely regarded as one of the most promising talents in world football" to the lead. I guess this is some offsite fan thing. Belbury (talk) 08:39, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

East Pakistan

Reason: A IP is doing vandalism and unhelpful edits in these three articles, we are reverting them for three long days but they are continuously doing it. I reported them see here but looks like they are using more than one ips to vandalize these articles. In this situation it is important to protect these three articles for longer period because the person is persistent enough. No other action will not work as they are using many ips. Mehedi Abedin (talk) 08:59, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Macaron

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Two IPs edit warring, one a dynamic IP. Belbury (talk) 09:08, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Tirant lo Blanch

Reason: High level of politically biased IP disruptive edits, by the same socks with dynamic IPs starting by "79." and "84." IP ranges, the first one being always from the same ISP named Digi Communications (Spanish branch of the company) one does pro-Catalanism edits and the other one makes pro-Valencianism edits, albeit the latter has been silent for about 2 weeks ago, the one IP range with tons of sockpuppets starting with "79." is even active up to today.

Here is the stable version of the page before the 2 disruptive IP ranges started with the constant edit wars 2 months ago in April: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tirant_lo_Blanch&oldid=1195815816

Just as a note: The user that made this edit back to January 2024 claims to be a Catalan Independence supporter (nothing against that) and this user himself made good WP:NEUTRAL edits and didn't delete nor change anything from the page, unlike these sockpuppets coming from these 2 IP ranges started disrupting the page over the past 2 months.

I would like to request a semi-protection so it can be edited only by registered users that have confirmed their email address. The page has been disrupted for 2 months and many users (including myself) have to watch it to revert the newer sock edits. LucenseLugo (talk) 09:54, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Nicki Minaj

Temporary full protection: Content dispute/edit warring – Edit warring and one of the protagnists notes on their Talk page they will continue to revert. Karst (talk) 10:30, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Pakdam Pakdai

Extended confirmed protection: Persistent disruptive edits and addition of unsourced content by IPs. M S Hassan (talk) 10:54, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

2024 Dominican Republic general election

Reason: Insertion of same hoax content by same IP address after protection was lifted. Also occurred in 2012 Dominican Republic presidential election, 2016 Dominican Republic general election and 2020 Dominican Republic general election. Borgenland (talk) 11:35, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Categories

Indefinite pending changes: Persistent disruptive editing – Same reason as WP:AFC/R; persistent spam. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 12:15, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Hongkongers

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent sockpuppetry – Pending Changes not working, more LTA vandalism still incoming...... (delta • tc) 13:03, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

2011 Seal Beach shooting

Reason: Persistent addition of unsourced content, also WP:BLP issues. See also Talk:2011_Seal_Beach_shooting#June_2024. ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 13:36, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Coach Carter

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. For example, since May 21, there have been 10 distinct IP addresses making unconstructive edits to the article. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 13:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Marianna Vardinogiannis

Semi-protection: Persistent addition of unsourced or poorly sourced content – IP's presumably from Greece are adding unsourced date of birth. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 13:57, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

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. 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.

SimplyLouis27, why do you think that? – Muboshgu (talk) 01:18, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
It's possible it's due to the protection being levied to replace PC after the "trial" ended in 2010. Articles on PC at that time were set to indef semi. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 01:27, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

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 {{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.

I would like to request that... (the map be updated to show that Israel now controls the entire Gaza-Egypt border) . LordOfWalruses (talk) 15:25, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

@LordOfWalruses this is not the place. Contentious topics should not be unprotected. 48JCLTALK 12:42, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
@48JCL: Unregistered and non-extended-confirmed editors are allowed to request edits to ARBPIA pages here. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 15:09, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
The talk page Talk:Israel-Hamas War is protected, therefore edit requests by non-extended-confirmed users land here. That is acceptable, and this request made above is reasonable. The people who actually do participate on that talk page should be reviewing requests here that remain open and haven't been declined for days. ~Anachronist (talk) 20:30, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Requests for autopatrolled

Autopatrolled

User:Prince of Erebor

I have created 80 articles, primarily focused on Sinophone cinema and fantasy literature, with 2 currently undergoing GAN. All of my articles have been promptly reviewed, and none of them have been deleted or marked for maintenance. I am requesting autopatrolled rights to alleviate the workload of the patrollers, especially those who actively review film articles and have reviewed the majority of my articles, allowing them to allocate more time to address articles that truly require attention. As a side note, I am a veteran editor with patroller rights on Chinese Wikipedia, having authored over 200 articles, including a dozen featured and good articles. While I fully understand that there are differences in policies and MOS across different Wikipedias, I believe this demonstrates my credibility and knowledge in assessing article quality.— Prince of EreborThe Book of Mazarbul 13:18, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

User:SheriffIsInTown

I frequently create articles on notable subjects, having authored 530 articles, with the majority facing no issues. Only three were deleted, mainly due to changes in election results affecting their notability. I'm requesting autopatroller rights to ease the burden on other editors reviewing my articles and help reduce the backlog of new article reviews. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 23:36, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Sanslogique

Hello. I would like to request Autopatrolled rights on the advice of user Broc, who appreciated my editorial skills. I have created more than 140 articles, mostly music-related. (I also have these rights in Russian Wikipedia.) Sanslogique (talk) 14:17, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

I stumbled across Sanslogique's music-related articles more than once as part of NPP, and found them of high quality. They show understanding of WP:NMUSIC, their pages are well written and sourced, and I did not see any copyright problems, that's why I suggested them to apply for autopatrolled rights. Broc (talk) 14:32, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

User:CharlieMehta

I am requesting autopatrolled rights for the second time to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia. My previous request was denied due to a lack of editing experience in biographical pages. Since then, I have focused on improving my expertise in this area. Since then, I have focused on improving my expertise in this area. I may not meet the criteria based on quantity, but I hope my work demonstrates the necessary quality. Charlie (talk) 12:43, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Losipov

I'm applying for autopatrolled rights for a second time, with my first request being denied in April 2023. The reason for that decline was that my previous articles were tagged for "notability". Since then, I have worked on bringing articles over from the Russian Wikipedia and have had relatively few problems when other editors were reviewing them (I don't bring over everything from those respective pages, so I add a tag for expanding from Russian to let others know that information is still there). I feel like I have learned from what I was doing wrong, and in the process, I have made dozens more articles since the decline. Therefore, I respectfully request that I be granted the autopatrolled permission this time around. Thanks in advance for your consideration. Losipov (talk) 17:23, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Ednabrenze

I regularly create new articles until I took a break to focus on work and studies. I have now concluded the studies and have retuned to creating new articles. I am requesting this right to help bring down the large number of articles waiting for reviewers attentions as articles I create will no longer join the queue if this is granted.

Requests for new page reviewer

New page reviewer

User:Florificapis

I got busy in real life for most of March and April, so my request was put on hold per [6]. Here is my original reason for requesting NPR permissions again.

I have over 120 new articles under my belt, mostly relating to medieval history, monasteries, saints, and geographical features. I am familiar with the kinds of content that would fall under CSD criteria, since I have experience wikifying new pages and tagging obviously problematic new pages for speedy deletion. I know the guidelines on notability, proper sourcing, draftifying new articles, rating talk pages using scripts, AfC, AfD, and other essential patrolling tasks. Would be quite happy to reduce the backlog while being cautious and careful. Also currently a Pending Changes Reviewer. Florificapis (talk) 00:09, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Within the past several days, I have been active cleaning up new articles listed at NPR. I am also an active member of WikiProject AI Cleanup. Having a few more tools would help me speed up the process and do a more comprehensive job. Florificapis (talk) 15:31, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

I would like to participate in the NPP backlog drive.

  • I have experience creating new pages as well as participating in AfD discussions.
  • Never had any blocks.
  • Agree to review on a trial basis. InDimensional (talk) 12:25, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

User:TarnishedPath

I participated in the December backlog drive, being granted a trial. At the end of the trial I requested permanent NPP, which was denied with the denying admin expressing concern that I hadn't created any articles. I've since created an article about Neeraj Gupta (refer to User_talk:TarnishedPath/Archive_2#Your_submission_at_Articles_for_creation:_Neeraj_Gupta_(sculptor)_has_been_accepted) and been responsible for the bulk of the material in the newly created article Bruce Lehrmann‎. I had been working on Draft:Bruce Lehrmann‎ but someone else started work on Bruce Lehrmann‎ just as I submitted Draft:Bruce Lehrmann‎ to AfC so I ended up merging my work over to the mainspace article and issuing a CSD for deletion of the draft. I've continued to be semi-regularly involved with AfD. I'm applying because I got a notification a while ago that there was a backlog drive for May and I'm willing to help out a bit with that.

User:Trainsskyscrapers

Hello. I was initially given a month long trial as a new page reviewer after receiving an invitation on my user page, and I've been enjoying everything so far: reviewing pages, providing feedback, sending WikiLove to new and returning users who have made exceptional first attempts, tagging issues, and resolving issues myself (that could otherwise be tagged) when I have time in an attempt to reduce the backlog. I have already been renewed once, and my second trial expires in a little over two weeks (May 26th). I'm requesting either an indefinite or longer-term ability to review new pages before my time lapses. Haven't had any behavioral issues, and I try to treat all users with respect. I will continue to help clear the backlog in the meantime. Thanks again. Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 00:06, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Ixtal, I see that you've marked only 5 pages as patrolled as a new page reviewer, which doesn't really give much of a track record to look at. I'm personally willing to give an extension for a month so that you can develop more of a record to go on, but I'll leave this open for another admin to look at.

User:Pbritti

Hi! I was granted a one month trial with the NPP right and feel as though I did a decent job. I mainly focused on marking obviously acceptable articles. I didn't do a ton of reviewing, but I then again I felt like doing more than a handful a day would have been overstepping the constraints of a trial permission. If it is ok with the coordinating admins, I'd like to keep using the NPP right; feel welcome to simply renew the trial period for another month if you need more indication that I'll stick to procedure. ~ Pbritti (talk) 13:29, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Xoak

I was suggested to apply here, and I've decided to volunteer. To make this more consistent:
I'm an AFC reviewer and I mostly create articles and review articles relating to biographies, as well as biological or scientific topics. I have DYK, GA, and vast experience with AFD and other noticeboard discussions. I'd like to volunteer in new pages patrolling as well to help reduce the queue. (I most likely won't be reviewing pages daily, but whenever I do, I'd do a thorough review, and I'm very collaborative. I provide feedback and at times amend issues myself of the pages I review).
Note that I've had a name change, so certain stats tool pages might not work properly. And 3 out of 4 of my deleted pages were self delete.

Thanks.

User:Babegriev

Was hoping to contribute with working on the backlog here. I have rollback and have been working on RCP, but looking to expand my experience a bit. Not much to brag about with new article creation, but there's a limited sample there I stand behind. I'm decently acquainted with the AfD scene, and have been working with new (often problematic) users and editors as best I can from RCP. I was removed from probationary AFC due to inactivity, but I'm planning to be online more in the immediate future. Also have worked with copyvio patrol and have done the oddball GA review. Looking forward to help, and happy to discuss any questions. Thanks! Bgv. (talk) 21:09, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Tajotep

I always wanted to review new pages since I became familiar with Wikipedia and had a good behaviour. I also got motivated to post this request when I was granted to the autopatrolled user right without applying for it (an administrator decided it voluntarily). I'll check specially the last pages on "New Pages", which are at the end of the queue, to improve those articles and helping new users by telling the mistakes they have. Thanks in advance.

User:Melmann

Requesting either an extension or permanent permission, as my 1-month trial is due to expire within approximately 7 days. I've participated in the backlog drive, not as much as I had hoped to due to IRL commitments, but I've received no negative feedback so far and given the size of the backlog (despite the drive) it appears that help in this area is needed.
Pinging @Spicy as a courtesy, given they've granted the trial. Melmann 20:24, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

User:IgnatiusofLondon

I was a new page reviewer until earlier this month. As my curation log suggests, while this wasn't the focus of my wikiediting, I occasionally dipped into the backlog to review new articles, a fair few of which I draftified or sent to AfD (so they weren't all easy!). I think my reviews were adequately accurate to demonstrate my suitability for the permission, and I'd like to continue helping to reduce the backlog as my wikiediting time allows. Thanks!

User:Vestrian24Bio

Reason for requesting: I've been following up with the NPP & AfC backlogs. There are still 9200+ articles and 28600+ redirects to be reviewed. There are also 2900+ pending AfC submissions. I want to volunteer for helping out in reviewing new pages and AfC submissions to reduce the backlogs. Vestrian24Bio (TALK) 15:05, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

User:ToadetteEdit

Trial ends June 16, and backlog drive is nearly over. I am reapplying early since some requests may not be answered after two weeks from now. I would like to review more pages and hopefully clear down the backlog. I have reviewed more than 100 articles so far and only very few were unreviewed. Please consider my reviews and AfDs before processing my application. ToadetteEdit! 18:20, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Kiran891

I've been an editor for 7+ years with 20K+ edits on Wikipedia, 78K+ edits on Wikidata, and over 8.5k edits on Wikimedia. In past month, I have tagged many files for move and figured I would rather ask for the filemover priviledges instead of duplicating work for other users. I've never been a disruptive editor. Please consider my request. Thanks.

I've done reverting vandalism (Although I was on a hiatus since Golden Week as the vandal level hit 5) for some months now, with my edits growing over 2000 from 89ish including other works, and I request this permission to help with the works. I understand that I did make a misunderstandment couple of weeks ago and I have revised the guidelines to prevent another instance of that happening. (I've been making sure not to miss placing a uw as well). Not planning to request rollbacker until I stop making accidents. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 01:34, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

User:750h+

I have made some very high quality articles (Aston Martin DB9 FA and Aston Martin Rapide at FAC) so I am very familiar with what content is reliable and what is not. I have reverted vandalism (in fact, reverting vandalism was the first edit I made) and whenever i seen vandalism, I take extreme pride in reverting it. Best 750h+ 13:28, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello User:750h+ . Nice seeing you here! From a quick look at your contributions, it seems like you usually don't leave a warning when reverting vandalism nor an semi-automated edit summary. It's very easy to do with tools like WP:Twinkle. Could you start warning editors? —Femke 🐦 (talk) 12:46, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. Sorry, but you've only been registered for about five days, which doesn't give much of a track record for how you understand important policies such as what vandalism is or is not, or the importance of understanding copyright. I suggest you spend a month or two contributing to Wikipedia and demonstrating how you understand these important policies listed at the criteria page for this PERM before re-applying.

I think I have a decent understanding of Wikipedia's policies. I've monitored recent changes and have mostly reverted vandalism whenever I see it, trying my best to always warn them.

Requests for rollback

Rollback

User:Wolverine XI

For more than a year, I have been reverting vandalism on numerous wikis. I'm rather skilled at identifying vandalism. I have made over 8,000 additions to the English Wikipedia, 700 edits to the Simple English Wikipedia, and around 800,000 edits to Commons. I edit a great deal. I'm always here to keep the wiki safe—in fact, I've been editing every day since December 27. That being said, I require the rollbacker to aid in the quicker and more effective removal of vandalism in our articles. It will also allow me to use AntiVandal, which makes sporting vandalism more simpler. I'll be careful not to rollback good faith edits as that's against the rollback policy. Thanks, Wolverine XI (talk to me) 18:10, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 08:24, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

User:Adam Black

I think I have a strong history reverting vandalism and would like to request rollback rights in order to use Huggle. I already use UltraViolet and Twinkle and I think rollback/Huggle will improve my ability to tackle disruptive editing. Adam Black talkcontribs 12:43, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

Template editor

User:Magentic Manifestations

Hi! I guess I would require this for doing certain edits with respect to certain templates, particularly with respect to Indian territories and transport. I have been making edits to templates within the ambit possible, but there are a couple of protected templates which would need additions (E.g. rint updation). So, it will be useful to have this.
