    Requests for permissions
    Shortcuts

    This page enables administrators to handle requests for permissions on the English Wikipedia. Administrators are able to modify account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, file mover, extended confirmed, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback, and template editor rights, and AutoWikiBrowser access.

    Editors wishing to request a permission flag here should do so following the procedure below. Editors requesting permissions are advised to periodically revisit the requests page, as notifications will not always be given after a decision is made. Editors should not expect their request to be answered right away and should remember to be patient when filing a request. To find out what permissions your account has, go to Special:Preferences, where your permissions are listed in the user profile tab under "Member of groups".

    Requests for permissions are archived regularly; please see Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Archive for an index of past requests.

    Permissions

    Handled here

    • Account creator (add request · view requests): The account creator flag is granted to users who are active in the request an account process. The flag removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24 hour period. It also allows users to make accounts with names similar to other accounts. The account creator flag is only given to users who participate in the ACC process and may be removed without notice should a user's participation in the account creation process cease.
    • Autopatrolled (add request · view requests): The autopatrolled flag is granted to users who are active in the creation of new articles. This tool is granted so their creations are auto patrolled in Special:NewPages. Unlike other requests, any user may nominate an editor for Autopatrolled, even without that user's consent. A user who wishes to have this flag generally should have created at least 25 articles and must be trusted, experienced, and must have demonstrated they are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, especially WP:BLP and Wikipedia:Notability.
    • AutoWikiBrowser (add request · view requests): AutoWikiBrowser is a semi-automated MediaWiki editor for Microsoft Windows, designed to make tedious repetitive tasks quicker and easier. It is essentially a browser that automatically opens up a new page when the last is saved. When set to do so, it suggests some changes (typically formatting) that are generally meant to be incidental to the main change. Please read the rules of use and registration requirements on the main page before requesting permission. This is not a true user right, but access needs to be granted by administrators just like other permissions. If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. Users with under 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits are rarely approved. You will need to give a reason for wanting AWB access.
    • Confirmed (add request · view requests): The confirmed flag may be granted to new users who have not yet hit the threshold for autoconfirmed status. These are users who have not had both 10 edits and 4 days experience. People with this flag can upload files and edit semi-protected pages before hitting the autoconfirmed flag. Users requesting this flag must indicate clearly why they should be exempted from the customary confirmation period.
    • Event coordinator (add request · view requests): The event coordinator user right allows editors to create multiple new accounts, and to temporarily confirm accounts so that they can create new articles.
    • Extended confirmed (add request · view requests): The extended confirmed flag is normally automatically added to accounts after 500 edits and 30 days, but may be added to legitimate alternate accounts of users that already have this access. The flag allows users to edit pages under extended confirmed protection.
    • File mover (add request · view requests): The file mover user right is intended to allow users experienced in working with files to rename them, subject to policy, with the ease that autoconfirmed users already enjoy when renaming Wikipedia articles.
    • Mass message sender (add request · view requests): Mass message sender enables users to send messages to multiple users at once. This flag is given to users who have made requests for delivery in the past, clearly showing an understanding of the guidance for use.
    • New page reviewer (add request · view requests): The new page reviewer user right allows users to mark pages as patrolled and use the page curation toolbar. At administrators' discretion, the right may be accorded on a time limited basis or indefinite.
    • Page mover (add request · view requests): The page mover user right allows users experienced in working with article names to move them, subject to policy, without leaving behind a redirect. They may also move all subpages when moving the parent page(s). General guidelines include making 3,000 edits and 6 months of editing history. At administrators' discretion, the right may be accorded on a time limited basis or indefinite.
    • Pending changes reviewer (add request · view requests): The reviewer flag is granted to users who are experienced enough with Wikipedia editing and its policies for contributing to the process of reviewing articles placed under pending changes.
    • Rollback (add request · view requests): Rollback enables users to remove vandalism much more quickly and efficiently than by undoing it. Users who do not demonstrate an understanding of what constitutes capable vandalism fighting, either because they have no or little history of doing so, or show a poor ability to discern between good and bad faith edits will not be granted this right. Also, it is unlikely that editors with under 200 mainspace edits will have their request granted. For a more detailed explanation of rollback and information about when it is appropriate to use the tool, see Wikipedia:Rollback. For information about the technical details of the feature, see here.
    • Template editor (add request · view requests): The template editor flag allows users to edit protected templates and Lua modules. General guidelines for granting include making at least 1,000 edits overall (with at least 150 to templates or modules), being a registered user for over a year, and having a record of successfully proposing significant edits to several protected templates. Users should demonstrate proficiency with template syntax and an understanding of the need for caution when editing heavily-used templates.

    Handled elsewhere

    Several permissions are requested and handled elsewhere:

    Review and removal of permissions

    The requests for permissions process is not used to review or remove user rights:

    The bureaucrat, checkuser, and oversight permissions are removed at meta:Steward requests/Permissions. Stewards will typically not carry out such requests unless they are made on behalf of the Arbitration Committee, by a user who is requesting their own access be removed, or in cases of an emergency.

    Process

    Requestors

    To make a request for a permission, click "add request" next to the appropriate header and fill in the reason for wanting permission.

    Administrators

    Full instructions at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Administrator instructions

    Administrators are permitted to grant account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, event coordinator, file mover, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback and template editor flags to any user who meets the criteria explained above and can be trusted not to abuse the tool(s). Administrators may either grant these permissions permanently or temporarily. For convenience, a bot will automatically comment with relevant data if the user does not meet configurable qualifications. Even if the bot does not comment, administrators should review the user's contributions and logs to ensure the tools will be used appropriately and check for any indication of potential misuse.

    Once an administrator has granted a permission or decided to deny a request, they should add {{done}} or {{not done}} respectively under the request with their comments. If a user already has the requested permission, or is autoconfirmed and requesting confirmed, {{already done}} should be used. N hours after the last comment was made (as specified by the config), the request will be archived automatically: approved requests will be placed here; declined requests will go here. See User:MusikBot/PermClerk#Archiving for more information on archiving functionality.

    Other editors

    Requests for permissions is primarily intended for editors requesting a permission for their own account. Other editors are welcome to comment if they have specific information that is relevant to that request that a patrolling administrator is unlikely to discover for themselves. Otherwise, since only administrators can effectively respond to these requests, general comments or 'clerking' by other users are rarely helpful. Non-administrators cannot "decline" to grant a request, because they're not in a position to accept it.

    A limited exception to this is Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled, where third party nominations are encouraged. Other editors should still avoid offering general remarks on requests and leave the final decision to an administrator.

    User:CherryPie94

    New page reviewer who has made over 90 articles including 1 good article and quite familiar with content guidelines, I may also as well not clutter the backlog for other reviewers. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 06:06, 7 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    One thing that immediately jumped out at me is some biographical articles created (e.g. Kim Na and Son Se-bin) have unsourced biographical information, such as the date of birth. This information should be sourced to ensure compliance with WP:DOB. - Aoidh (talk) 03:07, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    I've considered adding references directly next to DOB, which I did at my two most recent BLPs: Mike Kim and Lee Joon-ho. If birth information is not 100% verifiable, I play it safe (eg. Lee Seung-yoon). Per WP:DOB, links to websites maintained by the subject are generally permitted so I included Kim Na's personal website which states birth year as 1986 in the external links section. I created Son Se-bin over 5 years ago when I was much less experienced, so I don't quite recall which exact source I used for DOB (birth year seems to have been present in Star Today), so I've just amended that. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 04:22, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Ah I've misinterpreted that personal website policy, though it does fall under WP:ABOUTSELF, I've now also directly sourced it. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 04:39, 12 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Kjansen86

    I am autopatrolled and an NPP reviewer; I would actually like to nominate User:Kjansen86 to be autopatrolled. I just reviewed and cheerfully accepted almost a dozen perfectly-formulated articles on Zoroastrian texts, and they have made more than 25 overall. Looking at their talk page, this appears to be an experienced and effective editor. Checking their AfD stats, I find one (successful) AfD that they initiated, indicating an awareness of notability. We may as well take them out of the NPP backlog. (This is my first time nominating someone else so if I did it wrong, please let me know!) ~ L 🌸 (talk) 21:17, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Already done (automated response): This user already has the "autoreviewer" user right. — MusikBot talk 21:20, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    @LEvalyn: I went ahead and adjusted the nomination so it reflects who's actually being discussed, hope you don't mind! For future reference, you can use the "add request" link at the top of this page and replace the {{subst:REVISIONUSER}} with whichever user you're nominating. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:42, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I focus on creating articles related to Myanmar that need to be written, including those covering current events.

    User:Owais Al Qarni

    I have been actively contributing to Wikipedia for the past five years and have created over 150 articles. I strive to produce well-sourced, high-quality content on topics such as Bayan al-Quran, Mamunul Haque, and Deobandi fiqh, and I have also improved existing articles like the one on Zakariyya Kandhlawi. While I understand that the Autopatrolled user right is not necessary for editing, I have noticed that the page review process can be significantly delayed, with some of my pages taking 6–12 months to be reviewed. As a New Page Reviewer for the past two years, I actively participate in wiki forums, including AfD, and none of my articles have been deleted in the past three years, which I believe demonstrates my understanding of notability and other relevant guidelines. I believe I am eligible for the Autopatrolled right, which would help reduce the backlog of unreviewed pages. Additionally, I have held the Autopatrolled right on Bengali Wikipedia for the past five years. Thanks. –𝐎𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐥 𝐐𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢 ʕʘ̅͜ʘ̅ʔ 04:02, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Tashmetu

    I had my EC revoked last year by the arbitration committee. I have since completed the required 500 substantial edits to the best of my knowledge. I applied about a month ago and was refused because I didn't clearly understand the requirements. But hopefully this time I got it correctly. Tashmetu (talk) 13:58, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    @Xaosflux hey, sorry for tagging you. I just noticed you are the only active admin on this thread and I was wondering if you can look into my request or let me know who I can contact to have it looked at. Tashmetu (talk) 17:36, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Tashmetu, the ArbCom remedy requires that Tashmetu shows that they have made 500 substantive edits; all I can see is a statement that you did. While I think it doesn't mean you have to provide a list of all the contributions (that would be hard to review and pointlessly redundant to the full list), I personally think you should explain at least in some detail how you improved the encyclopedia since the revocation. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 15:57, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Fair point, I assumed there would be some process for this but I will do my best to explian. So I have worked mostly on the history side of Wikipedia, contributing to the "years in France" series and "years in Iraq " series, writing articles, adding details, events, and references. I have a huge library of history books so I thought that's the best use of my resources. I also try to create and enrich pages of notable Iraqi figures, though not as often because it's harder to find reliable sources for these. One of the issues I ran into while editing Iraqi history pages, because they are more recent, is the continuous topics keep coming up, like it's hard to talk about Iraq in the 90s without mentioning Kurdistan! This one of the reasons I would appreciate having my confirmation reinstated. Tashmetu (talk) 16:20, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:IdanST

    I had my ECP revoked 5 months ago. Since then, I've made hundreds of meaningful edits and currently have 806 edits. IdanST (talk) 18:16, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

     Automated comment This user has had this permission revoked in the past 180 days ([3]). — MusikBot talk 18:22, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hello IdanST, please describe the meaningful edits and what you'd like to use the permission for. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 16:01, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Hey, some of the edits I've made were focused on tidying up articles, such as List of snipers (you can check the history). These edits involved a major overhaul: adding sources, removing false or unsourced information, and fixing sentence structures. I've also made substantial edits to other articles, such as Embraer C-390 Millennium (you can check the history), Tilhas Tizi Gesheften, Oradour-sur-Glane massacre, Ayi Silva Kangani, alongside dozens of other articles where I've made meaningful, though not as extensive, contributions.
    You should be aware that most of these edits are the result of my work translating articles to the HE Wikipedia, as you can see here. Since my ECP was revoked, I’ve translated over a hundred articles. While reading the English articles before translating them into Hebrew, I also fix any mistakes or make improvements wherever I see the need. IdanST (talk) 18:15, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    New page reviewer

    Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.

    User:Rahmatula786

    I am reapplying for the new page reviewer role after my initial request was declined because now I realize I had applied prematurely. Since then, I have gained some experience, refined my understanding of Wikipedia’s policies, and have been actively contributing to the Articles for Creation (AfC) review process. This has not only strengthened my ability to assess new articles but has also given me useful experience in engaging constructively with editors.

    I am well-versed with Wikipedia’s guidelines, particularly regarding notability, verifiability, and neutrality. My strength is my ability to remain unbiased while reviewing, and I always strive to improve by learning from my mistakes. Though my registered account is only a few months old, I have been editing Wikipedia for a long time, which has given me substantial familiarity with its norms and regulations.

    I have been enjoying reviewing AfC drafts, and this experience has encouraged me to take on a more active role in maintaining Wikipedia’s quality. I now feel myself confident that I can handle this responsibility and would greatly appreciate the opportunity to contribute as a new page reviewer.

    Thank you for your time and consideration. Best regards, Rahmatula786 (talk) 17:12, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    @JustARandomEditor123, can you comment on Draft:Tarana Quarry railway station and how your understanding your notability has changed since then (ideally ditto for Litophyton columnaris). Sohom (talk) 21:47, 26 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    After the article on Tarana Quarry railway station was moved to the draftspace for not having enough references (only 1 source was present at the time), I learned that articles required multiple reliable, independent sources that go into detail about the topic were required to demonstrate notability, leading to the draft now having 6 references to meet WP:GNG. As for the Litophyton columnaris article, I learned that articles that have been created in another language version of Wikipedia should only be translated if they meet the notability requirements of English Wikipedia, and should not be translated through machine-generated means such as Google Translate.

    @Afonso Dimas Martins: NPP is about reviewing if article is good enough (i.e. notable enough) for wikipedia. AFD votes are proof that you are aware and know what is or is not for Wikipedia. Plus, knowing AFD is part of the criterion for granting Have a good knowledge of content policies and guidelines and an understanding of quality control processes. This is typically demonstrated by prior participation in one or a combination of the following areas: The deletion processes, i.e. AfD, PROD, and CSD.

    @Afonso Dimas Martins If this helps, Wikipedia has its own arcane set of standards for what topics can be included -- it doesn't always even matter what text is in the article, just whether reliable sources exist talking about it (see the general notability guideline). Essentially, there is a requirement that you have experience arguing about whether articles meet the criteria before you are able to mark new pages as reviewed, which means among other things you think they meet the criteria. Mrfoogles (talk) 00:55, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Hello, I was given the New Page Reviewer rights as a one-month trial. This permission will expire on 20 April 2025. During this time, I have been doing active reviewing of new pages and learning more about notability, reliable sources, and the CSD/PROD/AfD process. I tried always to be careful and make constructive reviews. I really want to keep helping with this work.

    User:HilssaMansen19

    I would like to request temporary rights to contribute to Wikipedia by reviewing new pages as there is a huge backlog. I have been working on Wikipedia for past few months as an active user. During this time period, I have learnt a lot of things and learning something new every time I work here. Before these 2 months, I had a little experience on creating pages and within this time period, I started contributing by expanding older or creating new articles mostly within similar topic base. I would be glad to contribute to Wikipedia by reviewing new pages and also, learn along the way. I will also be working with the editors of new articles which might be notable but lack sources or other requirements. Thus, I am requesting a temporary grant of this right and I will prove for further grant by doing worthy work. HilssaMansen19 (talk) 09:52, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    • Main reason is, I wish to join the May Backlog drive and contribute there. I have created several articles, including some years back after which I was inactive for long. I participated in AfD patrol before being inactive and recently engaging in a good way as well.
    • A temporary grant is requested through this request.
    • I will prove the granted right worthy enough through great work to retain it for further period as well.

    I am messaging here again to seek a temporary request for the Backlog drive. I have understanding of Wikipedia policies like notability, verifiability and reliability which are the base of new pages reviewing. I wish to start working instantly now in the May Backlog drive. Thanks. HilssaMansen19 (talk) 18:13, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I had been planning to request AfC permission but the May backlog drive prompted me to request NPP instead. I am a long-term gnome, vandal-fighter, rollbacker, and occasional Teahouse helper. Since returning from my last wikibreak I have familiarised myself with current policies and contentious topics and am developing a nose for LLM and copyvio content.

    User:WormEater13

    Hi there! I am requesting a NPP trial, particularly for WP:MAY25. I am pretty experienced in CSP, RPP, AfD, and AfC. All the articles that I have created have never been deleted or nominated for AfD either, and i've significantly rewritten quite a few articles. I primarily do recent changes patrol and AfD - but recently, i've been granted AfC reviewer, so i've been doing quite a bit of AfC reviews. I believe that I am extensively knowledgable about Wikipedia's 3 core principles - WP:V, WP:N, and WP:NPOV. I would love to help clean up the NPP backlog with the May 2025 drive!

    Hello fellow editors! I'd like to apply for NPR rights. For a while now, I've been contributing in various ways—editing and translating articles, participating in AfD-related activities (both nominating and voting), helping with the welcoming committee, etc.—and I would appreciate it if the community granted me the opportunity to participate in NPR. I believe my knowledge and the experience I've gained from participating in AfD discussions make me eligible for this role.Villkomoses (talk) 14:50, 29 April 2025 (UTC) Villkomoses (talk) 14:50, 29 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Xrimonciam

    Hello. I'm applying for New Page Reviewer rights to help with reviewing the large number of new articles. I’ve learned a lot and developed a solid understanding of Wikipedia policies such as Notability (WP:N/GNG/NCORP, ANYBIO), Verifiability (WP:V), and Neutral Point of View (WP:NPOV). My involvement in Articles for Deletion discussions and reviewing at Articles for Creation has given me additional practical experience, and I apply the mentioned guidelines during content verification, evaluation, or trimming unsourced material, and so on. Xrimonciam (talk) 08:05, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Your participation at AFD makes it clear that you should not be holding either NPP or AFC reviewer rights. See the extensive use of LLMs to participate at AFD, voting delete for an article with rationale likely meets Wikipedia's notability criteria due to significant coverage in reliable and independent industry publications [8], or nominating an article for deletion with rationale BillDesk should not be deleted because the company is a notable and influential player in India's digital payments industry, with coverage in reliable independent sources [9]. MarioGom (talk) 06:58, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
     Not done. In the second diff, this user creates an AFD with a keep rationale, which is WP:CIR at best, and WP:LLM usage at worst. Just a note that LLM should never be used to generate comments on talk and project space pages. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:09, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    I am requesting permission to be a Pending Changes Reviewer. I spend most of my day editing Wikipedia.

    Hi, I have been on Wikipedia for over a year and have made over 1k edits. I mostly edit and monitor history articles. Several articles are sometimes disrupted knowingly or unknowingly by editors for which I have to revert. Having Rollback right would make the patrolling work easier and help to combat vandalism. I am aware of most of Wikipedia polices (WP:OR,WP:NPOV,WP:RS,etc.) I have also authored few articles like Bajirao I see [10]. Mohammad Umar Ali (talk) 07:21, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Cabrils

    Hi, I am a recent graduate from the [| Counter Vandalism Academy] and have been conducting counter vandalism using the Recent Edits page, and Twinkle. My tutor at the CVA, Cassiopeia, suggested I apply for rollback permission once I had completed my course, so that I could properly use Huggle for counter vandalism work. I have once previously applied for rollback permission, over 18 months ago, however this was understandably declined because it was premature. Since then, I have undertaken considerably more counter vandalism work (which I typically manage to undertake 2-5 hours per week) and I feel being able to use Huggle would significantly improve efficiency. I would also be happy to only be granted rollback permission on a trial basis, if that is an option. Thank you. Cabrils (talk) 04:42, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Mamani1990

    Hello admins, I’m respectfully requesting rollback rights so that I may contribute more efficiently to counter-vandalism work using Huggle. Patrolling recent changes is what I enjoy most on Wikipedia, and I’ve found that it’s where I can make the most impact with the time I have available. I've made 1840 edits since January. At present, I review edits by right-clicking the diff link to open changes in a new tab in Chrome and then use RedWarn to revert and warn users when appropriate. While this process works, it's time-consuming and not ideal for high-volume patrolling. Having rollback rights would allow me to use Huggle, which would significantly increase my productivity and responsiveness in handling vandalism. Earlier, I made two requests for different user rights but withdrew them after realizing that my interest lies more in patrolling and counter-vandalism than in article creation or extended content curation. That said, I have written one article and contributed to creating another recently, and I do plan to continue helping in content areas where I can. I also take direction well and am open to feedback. Thank you for considering my request. m a MANÍ1990(talk | contribs) 21:48, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    User:Fneskljvnl

    Hi, I have been on wikipedia for a few years & I've made over 1600 edits on the english wikipedia, and I've made over 7700 edits on wikimedia commons. I have reverted many vandalizing edits on a varierty of articles, and I've left many notices of these reverts on their talk pages. I've also made a few pages, mostly redirects, but I've also created other articles, including List of Agriotes species, Choristostreptus, and 1854 in Mexico. Having rollback privileges would make it much more efficient for me when undoing vandalism. No matter the decision, thanks so much! -‪Fneskljvnl🪱 (Contributions, Talk) (stay silly forever) 02:38, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
