Reason: High level of IP Vandalism and POV push Vedant Katyayan (talk) 00:16, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
Reason: Repeated reverts of WP:GF edits by Mlb8589 who adds unverified/unverifiable location information to past champions table. Primary sources used for championship history do not include localities, though some added by Mlb8589 can be assumed to be correct—but not all. To verify would require parsing 40+ years of score recaps to determine which champions are from where… which has yet to be completed. Requesting revert to [1] and locking page to prevent WP:EW.

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – This page has been plagued with disruptive edits (all involving the content being replaced with "Emulador de xbox para gamecube") on this wiki and multiple other wikis. It has become more persistent in October. German Wikipedia has already protected the page on their wiki. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 03:32, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – IPs repeatedly adding around 300 characters of "steam trains are powered by ghost to create that it takes the passengers or cargo" nonsense for over a year.

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]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.
Reason: No longer necessary low profile article ModernDaySlavery (talk) 02:37, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Airplaneman: last protecting admin...any thoughts on that? Lectonar (talk) 09:13, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
Reason: Page was given an indefinite protection in June 2014 when the subject agreed to move club, effective from July; there was disruptive editing jumping the gun. This is quite clearly not an ongoing issue. IPs can do well with updating things. The page was demoted from GA in 2019 due to lack of update and maintenance. Subject has gone from a high-profile player to an average manager, so risk of vandalism is decreased. Protecting admin has 50 edits in last two years. Unknown Temptation (talk) 17:13, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
Unprotection: The edits prompting protection were made in good faith after the subject complained about inaccuracies on the page. I've used the post as an WP:ABOUTSELF source, so it should be good now. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 04:09, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- Please consider this carefully. The primary source disagrees with itself, as noted even by Thebiguglyalien, while the secondary source that was usurped was quite clear. The clearly contentious name and birth dates need to be more thoroughly investigated and solidly sourced before the article contains them; I have removed them for the time being. Since the Facebook post is likely the source of the sudden attention, it is fair to assume more ill informed attempts will continue, at least for a while, and I suggest maintaining the protection until we have consensus and accuracy.
Fred Gandt · talk · contribs
05:22, 24 October 2024 (UTC) - P.S. a heads-up next time might be nice; as a currently and directly involved editor, I only saw this request for unprotection when looking at Thebiguglyalien's contribs.
Fred Gandt · talk · contribs
05:26, 24 October 2024 (UTC) - Be aware that this issue is now being discussed on the talk page of Devin the Dude and (because having the same conversation in multiple places is a great idea) on the Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard.

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.
My suggestion is to leave out the following 2 sentences in the "German complicity" paragraph as they seem to be based on misunderstandings:
"She also highlighted police suppression of pro-Palestine protests throughout Germany[509] as evidence of state complicity.[508] Karen Wells et al. highlight how Germany has entrenched its complicity in Israel's actions by banning use of the word "genocide" in reference to Israel.[471][better source needed]"
1. In general violent protests are not allowed in Germany. As some of the first pro-Palestine protests were violent, they were sometimes forbidden by courts, if they were expected to turn violent. But that is common policy in Gemany with all subjects and not special for pro-Palestine protests.
Meanwhile, there even is a calendar concerning pro-Palestinian protests[2] with daily up to 20 protests all over Germany. Thus, there is no general police suppression of pro-Palestine protests as is suggested by the current wording.
2. The word “genocide” is not banned in reference to Israel in Germany - maybe that was a misunderstanding: What is not allowed in Germany is to call for genocide against Jews. The slogan “From the river to the sea” is seen as such call and banned. Gilbert04 (talk) 15:34, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
- @FortunateSons: A quick browse shows at least for the first part support for removal, can you add any additional incite? -- Cdjp1 (talk) 12:38, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Consider changing "The Israeli government rejected South Africa's allegations, and accused the court of being antisemitic, which it often does when criticised" to "The Israeli government has been accused of consistently weaponizing antisemitism against it's critics, including in the ICJ ruling." Ecco2kstan (talk) 23:12, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- The Weaponization of antisemitism page hyperlinked over "often done" has many sources to draw from regarding the accusations' consistency and nature.
- My main concern with the original text is that it's voiced as if it's an observation made by a Wikipedian. The benefit here is that the weaponization of antisemitism has a clearer consistency grounded outside of Wikipedia. Perhaps other ways to word this out include adding a time scale (increasingly accused since Oct. 7th) or specifying the critique (against critiques of their actions since Oct 7th).
- If a lead paragraph change is necessary, there may be reason to outline Israeli motives and conditions for the genocide, including Zionism and anti-Arab racism. Ecco2kstan (talk) 23:25, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Ecco2kstan, how about: "The Israeli government rejected South Africa's allegations. Supporters of Israel say that accusing Israel of genocide is both antisemitic[11][12] and a form of Holocaust erasure[13], but others argue antisemitism shouldn't be exploited to shield Israel from such allegations.[14][15][16][17]".VR (Please ping on reply) 00:12, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not as familiar with the Holocaust erasure claims, but I'm happy with that reworking! If that weaponization of Holocaust denial detail isn't on the weaponization of antisemitism page already, it might be a worthwhile phenomenon incorporate if there's more citations you can find. I might look into it myself. Thanks! Ecco2kstan (talk) 03:10, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Inform readers of the distinction between the dagger symbol and the cross symbol in the infobox.
Under "Commanders and leaders" in the infobox Yahya Sinwar has a dagger next to his name, but others such as Marwan Issa have a cross next to their name. The distinction between these symbols is not immediately clear to someone reading the article, I feel that this should be explicitly noted on the page. The Elysian Vector Fields (talk) 20:27, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
- @TheElysianVectorFields: That isn't the article page, that's the infobox template. I changed the target for you above. It seems the dagger means "killed in action" (KIA) and the cross means "assassinated". I honestly don't know how I'd add a note to that effect. Maybe someone smarter than me can figure it out. ~Anachronist (talk) 01:52, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

I want to replace links to old photos with links to better photos Kent Wang (talk) 18:31, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
I'd like to keep using AutoWikiBrowser to better add WikiProjects to talk pages in other languages, such as those in the Vietnamese versions of Establishments in Italy by year, as well as fixing (not necessarily removing like before) unknown parameters in templates. OpalYosutebito (talk) 13:22, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
I would love to use this for category maintenance and WikiProject tagging across a wide spread of articles quickly. (Oinkers42) (talk) 22:21, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
I would like to use AWB for fixing various puntuations and citations issues found on WP:NPP and articles within my scope as sometimes it's hard to notice it. Warm Regards, Miminity (Talk?) (me contribs) 12:15, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting autowikibrowser rights I need to help I make good edits that are very good I help revert vandalism Gladcape2013 (talk) 20:30, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
petscan:29601810 shows several hundred biographies with inconsistent categories. Depending on the subject, the solution is either replacing Category:Year of birth missing (living people) with Category:Year of birth missing, or adding Category:Living people. It's very repetitive (even with HotCat), but I don't think a bot could reliably decide which solution to apply. I'm requesting AWB access because it seems like the right kind of semi-automated tool for this job. jlwoodwa (talk) 01:39, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
Reason for requesting autowikibrowser rights: I have achieved 500 mainspace edits and I feel like this tool will be used so that I can contribute to wikipedia while expanding my knowledge of it- as well as how these tools work. This tool will be handy in my improvement of wikipedia articles no matter stub or good articles. This tool will be so handy in fixing problems that are in multiple articles! Thanks, ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Cooldudeseven7 join in on the tea talk 13:04, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
(See rescinded previous request.) There are many tasks I undertake that AWB would make easier, but the immediate task is finding 'what redirects here' for Effective radiated power to clean its odd anchor 'Equivalent radiated power (Redirected)' in the second paragraph. I do a fair bit of redirect work, so the ability to examine database dumps without dragging out my minimal MariaDB chops would be nice. I need to dig into Pywikibot as well, but I'd like to try the GUI offered by AWB. Tule-hog (talk) 16:18, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
Daniel Quinlan suggested I might try using JWB to help clean up mistargeted wikilinks after a page move. I've been reading the manual and I think I can have some occasional use with this. Thanks, Fathoms Below (talk) 19:42, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

New page reviewer[edit]
I'd like to request NPR rights. I have prior experience with AfC and NPP, so I'm familiar with the process of reviewing new pages. I'm confident in my understanding of notability guidelines and can easily spot paid/COI editing, as well as unreliable and branded sources. I am also familiar with WP:DP, WP:NOBITING, and CSD I understand the importance of careful, fair reviews and will do my best to uphold the quality of content on Wikipedia. Thank you! TheBirdsShedTears (talk) 06:37, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
Hello there, Im contributing to wiki nearly a decade; my edit count is near 600. From the last two months, I've been actively contributing or trying to. Can I be considered a reviewer? Thanks! UzbukUdash (talk) 17:29, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
I have sufficient experience with the deletion process and have been very active on WP:AFD where I have made policy based votes and feel very comfortable evaluating notability. Please see my AFD history. I have also read and understood the content policies and guidelines. RangersRus (talk) 21:18, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
I’m a past administrator, an editor since 2007, with 80,000 edits, and excellent AfD record. I would like new page reviewer rights so as to help reduce the terrible backlog. Thanks in advance. Bearian (talk) 02:47, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
RE-Request Hello, again. Recently reached the 500-edit count in main category. I'm here in the wiki nearly ten years; can I be a reviewer? In earlier request, I got confused with the criteria of edit count. thanks! UzbukUdash (talk) 10:54, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
Greetings, I have been volunteering with the goal to improve the WikiProject for the last 5 years, creating and updating articles mostly in the political area while trying to maintain as high impartiality as possible as well as following all rules established. I've since last year been granted Autopatrolled and in the granted message got asked to consider volunteering for this role too which i'm willing to do, to essentially help with making sure new articles (in the backlog) are in line with the rules. BastianMAT (talk) 13:22, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
I would like to request NPR rights to assist in clearing out the backlog and maintaining the expected quality of new content. I have a few months of experience in AfC reviewing, and somewhat less experience with AfD, but occasionally monitor the PROD and speedy deletion categories and have PRODed some un-improvable articles in the past when working through Category:Unassessed articles (though at the time I didn't have the PROD log set up). I aim to help other editors understand Wikipedia's policies in a straightforward and friendly way, new or otherwise, to help them in the new page creation process and to reduce the burden on reviewers in the future. Reconrabbit 14:42, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Page mover[edit]
I'd like to get this right to delete unnecessary redirects (i.e. move pages over existing single revision redirects regardless of target). Additionally, I would also like to try to harmonize some pages of Spanish municipalities with the name of the country and the province (when necessary) instead of other subnational units (such as comarca). Moreover if a double denomination exists in some cases, I shall use the slash with spaces in between to enhance visual effect of different linguistic nomenclatures. However if an English form is more relevant I shall use it instead of double and local denominations. Other than that I could help elsewhere to move pages if necessary. Thank you, Nuvolet (talk)

Pending changes reviewer[edit]
Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights: I am an Wikipedian for more than three years and part of various wikiprojects I need permission to expand my works on Wikipedia and also to observe Wikipedia articles. Cactinites (talk) 15:28, 23 September 2024 (UTC)

I’d like to request pending changes reviewer rights. I have been active on Wikipedia for a while, focusing on improving content quality and helping maintain the integrity of articles. I am not new to reviewing edits, as I use edit-request tools to answer several requests by unregistered/registered editors that wish to see changes on several articles.

I have been reviewing changes on many pages made by editors and IPs and helped by improving and protecting pages from vandalism. My editing history will prove that I am very capable and can be great help. I did set aside time and read and understood guidelines for vandalism, Reviewing pending changes and Protection policies before submitting this request. RangersRus (talk) 14:53, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I often review recent changes and find myself looking at a pending revision that is clearly acceptable per policies but am unable to accept it. It would be nice to contribute in this way, in addition to my existing activity reverting vandalism and other problematic edits. -OXYLYPSE (talk) 21:36, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
Hi! I've been patrolling pending changes and reverting vandalism for a month, as well as contributing to AfD, CSD and creating some of my own articles.

Requests for rollback |

Rollback[edit]
(Trying this again because one of my scripts broke the template) I have been reverting vandalism and patrolling recent changes for over a month now. The last time my request was declined, I simply hadn't been patrolling for a month at that point, and @Fastily had no other objections. I have consistently warned all vandals I reverted and reported many to AIV. I believe I'm ready to have rollback now. Also note that I am a pending changes reviewer. TheWikiToby (talk) 17:32, 14 October 2024 (UTC)
Hi! I've been RC patrolling for a month combined and have the needed mainspace edits. I always warn users when reverting their edits, either with the default warning template or a custom one if the situation is unique. I think I understand the policies here, as all of my reports to WP:AIV, WP:RPP and WP:UAA have resulted in action. I would like Rollback because using more advanced tools like Huggle would make my RC patrolling easier. Thanks for your time! MolecularPilot 08:51, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
I have been policing many pages and have reverted many vandalism by IPs and disruptive editors and added warnings on talk pages of the users. I have done this for a while now. I have also reported on ANI about vandalism. Rollback rights will make it more easier to help with vandalism and I am ready to accept this role. RangersRus (talk) 16:37, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
Requesting rollback to assist with reverting vandalism. I was granted this previously on a temporary basis a few years but later took a break and never renewed it. Thanks in advance. -OXYLYPSE (talk) 21:26, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

"Do you want to take a survey?"
[edit]On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.
