Being discussed with the user. Certainly looks like an orgname but there is no obvious reference to such an organization in their edits. Beeblebrox Beebletalks 19:20, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- First reference in the sandbox article states that the artist's manager is "Sierra Management", so we have paid editing and COI. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 20:21, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Indeed! – see here. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 21:28, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Well that's annoying, I did a text search of the page for "sierra" and it somehow did not catch that. Beeblebrox Beebletalks 21:33, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Ah, I didn't actually go and read the refs, normally we look for on-wiki links between the name and the subject, but clearly the off-wiki evidence is pretty compelling here. Beeblebrox Beebletalks 21:40, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- I've been using Template:Uw-coi-username. It covers everything in case there is a COI, and I like the username suggestions it gives, as I prefer they keep the company name as part of the username--makes tracking issues easier. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 22:13, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Not a violation of the username policy. Real names are permitted except when they imply that the editor is a specific living person they are not. Consider filing a report at the conflict of interest noticeboard. Looks like a real name to me. Making promotional edits does not retroactively create a username violation. Beeblebrox Beebletalks 19:22, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- I also see that you opted to discuss the username with them three minutes before you reported them here. You should either discuss or report, not both. Beeblebrox Beebletalks 19:24, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

- Sounds good! I wasn't heavily one side or another as to whether a softblock would be better in this case (since it seems obvious to be a role account) or a warning, so I figured I'd just report it here and let the "powers that be" handle it the proper (non bitey, of course :P) way. Came across this user on the mentor dashboard and didn't want them to get messages from me followed by a block if that ended up being what the result was. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez | me | talk to me! 23:58, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

Even shorter TLDR - temporary semiprotection Talkpage spam (mostly IPs) repeatedly making edit requests/new discussions about Trump's new picture. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez | me | talk to me! 02:38, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
Longer reason: See Talk:Donald Trump § Duplicate edit requests/discussions for the discussion I opened on this issue. Long story short, ever since Trump's "official" inaugural photo was released, there has been a plethora of users attempting to get it replaced/added on many pages - the most prevalent being his page, for obvious reasons. The issue is that there is no evidence whatsoever this image is a free image, and there is actually evidence that the image is non-free (either copyrighted, or barred by a NC restriction). See, for example, the current deletion request on Commons. For historical reference, this also happened in 2017 - Trump "hijacked" a private photographer's image (including posting it on whitehouse.gov claiming it was public domain after his inauguration) without their permission, and the photographer confirmed to VRT/OTRS on Commons (confirmed by multiple VRT members in that discussion in 2017) that they never permitted such. It seems likely that the same is happening here, as a user on Commons has claimed that they spoke to the photographer who wants a NC restriction on this image.Sorry for the length of this request, but TLDR: there's tons of talk page spam (edit requests or otherwise) from mostly IP editors trying to get this almost-certainly-copyrighted image replaced in his page. I know talkpages are rarely protected, but I'm requesting temporary (maybe a week, to cover the inauguration itself) semiprotection of the talkpage to see if it may help. Any alternative ideas are welcome on the talkpage itself. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez | me | talk to me! 02:36, 17 January 2025 (UTC)As one of those dealing with the problem firsthand, I'm mixed. In my view, the copyright issue isn't really relevant here; that's just background. Rather, it's the recent onslaught of drive-bys who (1) are misusing the edit request facility because they are too fucking lazy to read the information put in front of them during the edit request path (a continuous problem not unique to this situation), and (2) for some unfathomable reason assume they are the first to think of proposing the new image, so don't bother to look for an existing discussion before edit-requesting. (At the Trump article and other well-attended articles, the edit request facility is always far more trouble than it's worth—probably 95%+ of edit requests at Trump are "not done", and the other 5%− could just as easily use the normal "New section" path—but that's a different discussion.) Ultimately, I think the question is how much useful contribution is the ATP getting recently from IPs and brand-new accounts, and I think the answer is not a lot. I guess I'd lean toward supporting temp semi. ―Mandruss ☎ 06:06, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. I am normally loath to protect article talk-pages, but we need to get some respite on this one here.

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on 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]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.
Add “by June 30, 2024” to the sentence: The Lancet has estimated 70,000 deaths due to traumatic injuries.[8] Seahumidity (talk) 23:09, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
In paragraph 4 is this assertion: "In private, White House staffers and Biden's family took measures to conceal and compensate for apparent declines in his acuity." There is no source cited for this consequential claim. The "apparent decline" of mental acuity in Biden, a lifetime stutterer, is a topic of contention. Rnperry (talk) 15:10, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
Done Removed. We must source EVERYTHING, especially in BLPs. Sumanuil. (talk to me) 05:55, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- What? Nothing is directly sourced in the entire lead for that article, it generally follows the practice of citations in body, not lead, from MOS:LEADCITE. There is however, an entire section in that article that backs up that point. Does the OP think that:
A tight-knit group of select staffers and Biden's family emerged during his presidency that insulated him from others. Biden's staff routinely adapted his schedule and activities to accommodate his needs as he aged and conceal signs of declining cognitive ability. White House staffers took on unusually strong roles as gatekeepers for Biden, limiting meetings with cabinet secretaries, lawmakers, and other officials, and restricting the information made available to him. Events Biden attended were tightly scripted and limited.
- was because he had a stutter? There are multiple sources backing it up, from the NYT, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and Axios. KiharaNoukan (talk) 07:32, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Autopatrolled[edit]
I've seen this editor's work on multiple occasions at New Page Review. Has created 208 pages, none deleted, more than 3/4 of them B-class. High-quality page creation with infoboxes, quality references with proper formatting, images, etc., requiring no cleanup by reviewers. Dclemens1971 (talk) 17:38, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I would like to request auto-patrolled rights on Wikipedia. I have been actively contributing to the project and have created more than 30 of articles to date, which adhere to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. I believe my experience and attention to detail make me a good fit for this role. Granting me auto-patrolled rights would help reduce the workload on other patrollers by automatically marking my new pages as reviewed. Please feel free to review my contributions and articles to ensure they meet the necessary standards. Let me know if any additional information is required. Thank you for considering my request! Needforname (talk) 17:39, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights Ahola .O (talk) 22:56, 11 January 2025 (UTC) I am requesting the autopatrolled user right because I have been actively contributing to Wikipedia and believe that my experience and adherence to Wikipedia's guidelines make me a suitable candidate for this right, I have created over 25 articles, all of which comply with Wikipedia's notability guidelines and content policies. My contributions have consistently aimed to enhance the quality and reliability of the encyclopedia. I believe that granting me the autopatrolled user right will help reduce the workload of new page patrollers and allow me to continue contributing to Wikipedia more efficiently. Thank you for considering my request. Ahola .O (talk)
Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights I have created almost 50 articles and whilst producing these articles I have developed my understanding of wikipedia policies, conformed with the rules for biographies of living persons and have improved the content and formatting of numerous articles. SDGB1217 (talk) 14:46, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights - I had it in the past and honestly didn’t realise it was missing until I did a requested move today and the DAB I created had to get manually patrolled. Could I please have this back so as to not add work to others when I’m doing moves related work? Steven Crossin Help resolve disputes! 13:13, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
I am requesting autopatrolled rights because I want to minimize the backlog of new page. As an active member of New Page Patrol, I am also participating in the January Backlog Drive 2024 and I am familiar with the guidelines here on Wikipedia like WP:POLICY, WP:COPYRIGHT, WP:PROOF and WP:GNG. While I have only created 11 articles so far, they include several BLPs and meet Wikipedia policies and guidelines. I understand that the typical requirement is 50 articles, but I hope my demonstrated understanding the guidelines and my contributions on NPP reviewer can be considered as autropatrolled status. Royiswariii Talk! 05:45, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
Hello, I have created 75+ articles, since I got autopatrolled mostly focusing on television series. For transparency, I'm still working on the feedback received from @Schwede66 in my last request. And I intent to keep doing the good work. Thanks for your consideration. Wishing the community a prosperous new year. C1K98V (💬 ✒️ 📂) 06:56, 17 January 2025 (UTC) |

Page mover[edit]
Have participated in handful of RMs in past year, as well as at MRV. I've only come to RMTR once, but otherwise would be useful for disambiguation purposes. As I often create the disambig first, in order to justify a page moving away from ptopic; this often leaves me with having to swap the disambig page with the redirect and visa versa afterwards, when I simply need to perform a swap. I've otherwise closed RMs before, and would probably close more that aren't too controversial, but am often restricted due to the need to overwrite a redirect. CNC (talk) 12:54, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
I've been requesting occasional, regular and errant page moves at RMTR ever since I either created this account or achieved the extended-confirmed threshold. After 30 months of existence and persistence and in this new year, I'm ready to take the next step and have this right for a start as I can have an impact on this encyclopaedia. Intrisit (talk) 20:05, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
Over time, I have made numerous move proposals on talk pages. Sometimes I don't get a reply from other editors and I bring it to WP:RM/TR. Other times, an administrator notices the proposal and implements it. Some of these could probably have been undiscussed bold moves and not required discussion at all. All of them are impossible without the page mover permission because they would overwrite a redirect. I'd rather save y'all the trouble of reviewing and do them myself. I've made 269 page moves and 22 edits at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests. I was granted this permission once before, but it expired. Daask (talk) 21:30, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
I would like to have the page mover rights, I know how page movement works and the rules regarding page movements. SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 17:58, 16 January 2025 (UTC) SparklingBlueMoon (talk) 17:58, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
I have had the flag for a long time until I decided to have it removed recently. It appears that file-mover right doesn't have the required redirect-suppression right, and as such some file renames where I have to suppress the redirect, leave behind a redirect with a CSD tag - which I find odd as it adds to the load of admins. I am aware of the relevant polices and would like to have the flag back. Thanks. Regards, Aafi (talk) 07:19, 17 January 2025 (UTC) Regards, Aafi (talk) 07:19, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Pending changes reviewer[edit]
Hello I'm Ampil. The right set to expire 7 days. I've received a award. and I'm a AfC reviewer. ~🌀 Ampil 「💬 / 📝」 04:39, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I have lots of experience in the WP:TW scale of reverting edits, and wish to continue this through WP:PENDING BryceM2001 (talk) 20:40, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I'd like to request pending changes review rights because I am familiar with the policy and this would help me with my vandalism patrols. Furthermore, I am currently trying to accept a request, but I do not have the permissions. Thanks! Ali Beary (talk2me!) (stalk me?!) 13:29, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
Hello, I've been active in the Wikipedia community adding new content and creating articles, but especially fighting vandalism. I have also gained experience in reviewing by looking and reviewing semi-protected and protected pages edit requests. I am now looking for a new challenge, and I think I could help by putting forth my skills for the pending changes reviewer role! Thanks for the consideration.TYPEINFO (talk) 06:36, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
My sole purpose of editing or the desire to review edits is for the wellbeing of Wikipedia. I made a few pages and made 1300+ edits. I believe in quality not quantity. TrueMoriarty (talk) 17:36, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Rollback[edit]
Hello everyone. I would like to request rollback rights here. I have a long and controversial history on the English Wikipedia but hope that especially in recent years, I have proved as to other editors, as well to the administrators, a positive change in my editorial behavior. I myself, don't forgive and don't forget my mistakes, but believe that with my experience and knowledge on the Macedonian issue, I will be useful in the fight against vandalism in this complicated question. Even though I'm worried, I remember Matthew 7:7-8: “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened." Thanks. Jingiby (talk) 09:01, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
I am requesting rollback rights for the ability to use a tool-assisted diff viewer, either huggle or meta:SWViewer. I have a lot of experience doing recent changes patrolling and fighting vandals and am interested in doing so with the semi-automated tools available. I have read the policy for using rollback and always warn users when reverting their edits. cyberdog958Talk 10:49, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
Hi, I've been editing Wikipedia for about a year, with more active contributions over the past 5-6 months. i edited over 1000 edits and made some pages as well. During this time, I've frequently reverted vandalism and unconstructive edits and have become familiar with handling such challenges. While I’m still learning some aspects of Wikipedia policies, I feel that rollback rights would help me revert vandalism and const. edits more efficiently, especially when i have to do repeated cases. I’m committed to using these rights responsibly to maintain the quality of Wikipedia. Much Regards. Callmehelper (talk) 03:26, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
Hi! I've been editing for half an year (less than others I know) and have amassed a total of 1600 edits, with about half of those being in mainspace. I have patrolled recent changes for a while, and have been adequately warning users since I learned about Twinkle. Note that the block I have received was a self-block to study for finals. I want rollback permissions in order to use tools such as Huggle effectively. Wildfireupdateman :) (talk) 20:12, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
Hello. I am requesting this permission in order to fight vandalism in a faster and more efficient manner, when I encounter it in my work here (with this being one of the worst examples I've seen so far). If granted, I intend to use it responsibly (and just occasionally – when needed), in the same way as I am using other permissions that were granted to me so far. Of course, I am aware that this tool is supposed to be used, basically, just to target vandalism – not at all in content disputes, etc. As for my experience, I have been around for almost 15 years, with c. 150,000 edits. — Sundostund mppria (talk / contribs) 16:01, 15 January 2025 (UTC)

Template editor[edit]
Hello, Recently, I went on vacation, which has given me more time to dedicate to Wikipedia. During this period, I noticed some issues with the Dark mode theme. Inspired by user @Synpath, who took the initiative to propose changes to the Drugbox template, I began working on fixing dark mode compatibility in other templates. Specifically, I have contributed to improving Template:Annotated image 4, Template:Enzymatic reaction, and Template:Biochem reaction subunit. In 2019, I created a Lua module for the Portuguese Wikipedia to assist editors in finding articles without citations. This tool categorizes articles by the month and year the tag was added and allows sorting by pageviews. You can view the module and the associated template. I mention this to demonstrate my ability to work with modules if needed, although I currently do not intend to work on modules. The primary reason for this request is to be able to contribute more actively to the Drugbox and Chembox templates. I have previously participated in discussions to update the Brazilian drug legal status parameter in them (see: Template talk:Infobox drug/Archive 19#Legal status in Brazil - Add subclasses F1, F2 and F3 and Template talk:Chembox/Archive 13#Template-protected edit request on 15 August 2023). I am also contemplating starting a project, potentially under the umbrella of Wikipedia:WikiProject Pharmacology, to expand the "legal status" parameter to include additional countries, particularly China and India. This expansion would aim to improve greater understanding of how different countries regulate and culturally perceive various substances. Thanks! -- Arthurfragoso (talk) 17:51, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
