See Wikipedia:Template editor for the granting guidelines.

Applicants should show some evidence that they generally meet the guidelines outlined there, and have a demonstrated need for the right.
Please note that most templates are not protected and can be edited without this access.
If a template you frequently edit had its protection level recently changed, ask the protecting admin if lowering the protection level is an option.

Est. 2021 (requesting Rollback, Template editor) (t · th · c ^{(template space · edit requests)} · del · cross-wiki · SUL · edit counter · templates created · non-automated edits · BLP edits · undos · manual reverts · rollbacks · logs ^{(blocks · rights · moves)} · rfar · spi · cci) (assign permissions)^(notify)

I already had these rights in the past, and I'd like to help with the large amount of pending edit requests. You can check my previous activity at User:Est. 2021/contribs#Edit requests. – Est. 2021 (talk · contribs) 08:30, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I am inclined to decline this; you have been granted the right twice on a temporary basis, and yet have made almost no template-related edits during those periods (and zero template edits during the previous 2024 trial). You have also not made any TPERs since your last trial. What makes this time different from the previous two? Primefac (talk) 14:00, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: Well, I didn't easily use these rights unless there were valid pending requests. During my trial, I performed 3 and declined 2 of them. None of them has been contested. Yet I'm not going to eagerly engage in unneeded protected edits just to increase my edit count, I only engage in the ones I'm sure about. If you expect me to abuse TPERs and TE rights, it's not going to happen. I just saw there are currently 19 pending requests and I thought I could be helpful, nothing more.
