Requests for page protection


Current requests for increase in protection level

Request addition of protection to a page, or increasing the current protection level
Place requests for protection increases at the BOTTOM of this section. If you cannot find your request, check the archive of requests or the page history. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Reason: vandalism high level ~2026-34003-98 (talk) 04:26, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Lots of editing due to newsworthiness but not many reverts. Daniel Case (talk) 01:28, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Reason: Frequent edits based on arguments which has also disrupted for further addition of informations to keep up to date. Prayushk (talk) 06:57, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

  • Automated comment: A request for protection/unprotection for one or more pages in this request was recently made, and was denied at some point within the last 8 days.—cyberbot ITalk to my owner:Online 07:02, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
    Declined – Content dispute. Please use the article's talk page or other forms of dispute resolution. Last edit on talk was over two weeks ago. Daniel Case (talk) 01:34, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Reason: some unverified user dirupted the page neutrality HomeofIR (talk) 11:05, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. No reverts in nine days. Daniel Case (talk) 01:45, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Extended confirmed protection: Multiple editors, both unregistered and registered, keep inserting that she has turned "face" (in normal terms a heroic wrestling character) without using any reliable source. Even her current storyline doesn't show any face or heroic characteristics. I've stated this multiple times while reverting editors, even started a talk page section. Yet no one cares to notice or discuss. This has gone on for days, I don't want to keep endlessly reverting (which might breach 3RR). So I request the page to be given extended protection temporarily. Linkin Prankster (talk) 12:05, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Last reverts were three days ago. Daniel Case (talk) 01:52, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Reason: IP disruption/Block evasion. Griboski (talk) 13:08, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. If disruption continues, please re-request. - The Bushranger One ping only 22:07, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
Left CTOPS notice on talk page per WP:CT/EE ... if any article in that topic area that doesn't currently have one needs it, it's likely this one. Daniel Case (talk) 01:54, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Requested action: Extended-confirmed protection

Reason: Long term disruptive editing from auto-confirmed editors, including uncited info and drive-by WP:POV violations. I think this page might also fall under WP:CT/AP. Giovanni Potage (talk) 15:25, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Not in two weeks. Daniel Case (talk) 02:09, 11 June 2026 (UTC)
And it already has a CTOPS notice per AP on talk. Daniel Case (talk) 02:10, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Reason: Temporary user ~2026-33603-57 is reverting one specific icon on the page, without explanation and with invitation to discuss on the talk page. They are an almost-certain WP:SOCK of ~2026-17514-29, who engaged in a slow-moving but ongoing identical campaign about a week ago, which ultimately led to the latter being indefinitely blocked from editing the page (see here and here).

Reason: Has been protected for more than ten years and the last edit was barely 10 months ago so I don't think any vandalism would happen. Last reversion was in Nov 2022.~2026-34131-48 (talk)  Preceding undated comment added 18:31, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Pinging @Angelo.romano Daniel Case (talk) 02:24, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Indefinite semi-protection: I understand there was lots of edit warring on this page, but it was almost all done by temp accounts. Surely we don't need FULL protection on a page to protect against temp account/brand new account vandalism?. Zackmann (Talk to me/What I been doing) 03:38, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

(1) There were a nuumber of 'actual' accounts involved in the edit-warring; (2) full protection avoids the effect of disadvantaging unregistered/new users versus autoconfirmed ones; (3) the protection falls off 'naturally' in less than 24 hours. - The Bushranger One ping only 03:59, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

Requests for autopatrolled

Autopatrolled

Hello folks! Till date, I have created about 45 mainspace articles; mostly films, web series, biographies, places of worship and a historical landmark (my most recent creation). I would love to have the Autopatrolled rights; and it might help prevent the piling up of the NPR backlog, even just by a bit. And I believe I am qualified for this. If I am judged ineligible, I would be happy to work upon myself if my shortcomings are pointed out. Thanks! BhikhariInformer (talk) 11:28, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

@BhikhariInformer Could you explain why you used in Basu Bati. Sohom (talk) 04:24, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
Although it's not equivalent to a major newspaper or journal, I used it cuz it appeared to be a specialised history publication rather than a personal blog. They publish bylined articles, and from what I could gather, the authors appear to be real people with relevant academic backgrounds. And this article contained detailed information about Basu Bati's history. If there are concerns regarding the source's reliability, I'd be grateful if you could point 'em out, as I used it in good faith and would like to improve my source evaluation. BhikhariInformer 📮 (Ping me or else I won't see it) 05:03, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
{{not done}} @BhikhariInformer (CC @Sohom Datta): it's a brand website. See the very bottom of the page: "Your source for unique home decor and furnishings that blend modern design with traditional Indian craftsmanship. Responsibly sourced from over 11,000 artisans, our products reflect authenticity, sustainability, and fine craftsmanship. Discover the beauty of India with Peepul Tree." I'm sure you used the source in good faith, but this indicates to me that NPP review is still necessary. voorts (talk/contributions) 17:21, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
(Non-administrator comment) @Voorts I'm sorry, but I do not really agree with your analysis of that source; Sanjana Ray is in fact an established journalist specialising in lifestyle and probably culture. While PeepulTree appears to be "Your source for unique home decor and furnishings...", I think the website for that branding and whatever is mostly peepultree.world and not livehistoryindia.com; the latter is a website where they publish well-researched articles relating to their niche. In fact, I find the piece to be a well-researched publication by a subject-matter expert, and in livehistoryindia credit, I consider it an excellent, high-quality editorial platform for history enthusiasts, students, cultural explorers, you name it. This is entirely my own opinion and I hope it helps. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:10, 30 May 2026 (UTC)
I'll let another admin review it. voorts (talk/contributions) 19:38, 30 May 2026 (UTC)

Good morning/day/evening my fellow Wikipedians. After 15 years, 200k+ edits and creating a lot of stuff here I think it is time to apply for Autopatrolled permission. I have created about 200 list articles and 150+ other main space articles, mostly biographies. All of them are properly sourced, formatted, and comply with core policies (notability, verifiability, BLP, copyright) even the stubs. Although I love all my children I'm especially proud of next WIR contributions:

Currently I am focussing on Wikispecies-related topics so the last 350+ 'pages' are soft redirects to Wikisecies. As you can see in the logs there haven't been any major issues. Thank you for your time. Kind regards, Mill 1 (talk) 20:17, 28 May 2026 (UTC)
(Non-administrator comment) I recommended to @Mill 1 that they apply for autopatroller. They mentioned that new NPP's nominating their soft directs to deletion (which I am also guilty of doing), and it would save everyone time if they were granted autopatroller. They've created over 8000 pages, and only 72 have been deleted.
EaglesFan37 (talk) 22:13, 28 May 2026 (UTC)
Hi, What is the status of my application? It has been a week already and I had to remove speedy deletion tags from new soft redirect pages yet again. I believe this was NPP-er number 5 or 6. Kind Regards,Mill 1 (talk) 17:56, 4 June 2026 (UTC)
@Mill 1: If people are nominating pages you're creating for SD, why should I grant AP? What SD criteria are they using and why do you think they're wrong? Please provide some examples. voorts (talk/contributions) 12:21, 6 June 2026 (UTC)
Fair question. It exclusively envolves SD nominations regarding soft redirect pages. I created a lot of them lately (example). Some of the newer NPP-ers are unfamiliair with the soft redirect guidelines resulting in SD nominations. This topic on my Talk page pretty much sums it up. Mill 1 (talk) 12:37, 6 June 2026 (UTC)
Some examples + argumentation: 1, 2, 3. Again, these are not 'real' pages which should be the focus of this application.

Hi. I've created 26 pages on the English Wikipedia, mostly relating to New Zealand plants. I also frequently create redirects for the common names of plants. Alexeyevitch(talk) 05:10, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

I want to reapply for Autopatroller, to contribute further for creating new good quality articles, as long as I have reflected latest things happend before and i got an big lesson to not comment/accept new pages more via ip user without letting know. I appreciate any decission. Thank you for your attention. Lanceloth345 (talk) 11:37, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

Automated comment This user has had this permission revoked in the past 180 days (). MusikBot talk 11:40, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
Courtesy pings for the granting admin Arcticocean and the revoking admin Tamzin; note previous requests in July 2025 (declined) and in March 2026 (accepted). Lanceloth, the evidence presented in your SPI is not looking great for you, and in my opinion indicates that your creations are in need of monitoring from new pages patrol. Even leaving aside the behavioral concerns, I noticed there was a red citation (using a highlighting script) on Stine (singer); following the thread to this RSN discussion which you participated in shows a lot of arguments you made that don't seem to demonstrate understanding of our sourcing guidelines. (Non-administrator comment) TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:22, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
As per threat at RSN discussion, i understand sourcing just arguing at that topic, that Teksteshqip website was the only website that even Albanian outlets often refers as "unnofficial Albanian singers database". I reeaplied here as i mention before that i have reflected and to edit/vreat in good faith in future. Thank you Lanceloth345 (talk) 06:23, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
 Not done. Tamzin didn't revoke AP to teach you a big lesson. They revoked it because you were engaging in disruptive behavior. I agree with my colleagues that your new article creations are in need of scrutiny. voorts (talk/contributions) 23:58, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
Hey all! I've created about 45 articles, mostly biographies of underrepresented figures, and would be really honored to get autopatrolled so I can contribute more to the biography sections! Jishara (talk) 04:32, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
Requests for AutoWikiBrowser access

AutoWikiBrowser

I would like to create lists of articles I might want to edit based on Regex and categories. Because of my current computing setup I will need to use JWB, which, unlike AWB, requires being on the check page for all actions, including generating lists. I do not intend to actually make any semi-automated edits until I'm more confident in my Regex skills, and am willing to make another request when that time comes. JarJarInks٩(◕_◕)۶Tones essay 15:25, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

@JarJarInks: you're still under the normal requirements (at least 500 edits or 250 mainspace edits). With your use case, I can justify making an exception, but was wondering how you're getting on with Ponor's userscript instead? In solidarity, —Femke (talk) 🐦 16:54, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

I need to change a couple of thousand redirects real quick due to the French changing the names of their football leagues. Also I'm a page mover and this is just generally useful to have in the toolbox. ⹃Maltazarian parleyinvestigate 00:55, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

Hi. I very often help in WP:AI noticeboard with the takedown of LLM-generated articles. I often have to tag many articles with {{AI-generated}} during reports which can take time. Same thing goes during the WP:LLMPROD process, where I have to add {{prod llm}} to articles. My editing history on Wikipedia is also Poland-related articles on rail transport, such as railway stations. These articles often need maintaining such as updating the Train services section when the train timetable changes in Poland, in which it will on 13 June. Fortek67 (talk) 20:09, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

Requests for extended confirmation

Extended confirmed

Hello, according to the result from my AE, XC would be removed "until Edittttor has made enough manual non-repetitive edits to earn the right." I have now surpassed that threshold and am requesting reinstatement. I wish to edit articles about US politicians and sometimes those pages are ECP. For transparency, there is an open AE against me, but I believe that innocent until proven guilty should apply, and I have in good faith met the requirements for reinstatement. Based on the AE archives I've looked at, it could take weeks for a resolution there and it seems punitive to extend my punishment if I have met all the requirements. Will be an opportunity for the community to see how I handle reinstatement until the request is resolved. I will make a note there that I have requested reinstatement here. Thanks!

I'm currently temporarily approved for NPR rights and I've been participating in the May 2026 backlog drive. I'm finding the review process good so far and I take pride in reducing the backlog. I'm hoping I can get an extension in my NPR rights so I can continue working on reviewing new pages. Thanks, DoO2 02:48, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

Dog Oxide, could you comment on your review of mHUB? What was your thought process and procedure? signed, Rosguill talk 03:10, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

Hi, I'm requesting for permission to NPR. I meet the guidelines stated and I intend reducing the backlog by minimizing spam, unsourced and promotional content across new pages. Retro music11 (talk) 16:54, 1 June 2026 (UTC)

Also, @Left guide has allowed me to do so. (That's starting a new request with a relevant rationale) Thanks! Retro music11 (talk) 16:56, 1 June 2026 (UTC)

Hello again, I would like to request an extension of my New Page Reviewer right until August or permanently if they deem it appropriate. I have held this right since May, and my trial period is set to expire on June 8. I believe I have been able to do a good job during this time.

I have been an active Wikipedia contributor for a while, and thought maybe I could be of help, that's if I meet the requirement to be a new page reviewer. Thank you. Obinna Tony (talk) 21:19, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions and your interest in this permission. On reviewing your recent editing history, it looks like an article you created was deleted at AFD about 2 weeks ago (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abuchi Peter Ugwu), so I don't think you're quite ready for this permission yet.  Not done, consider reapplying after getting more experience with article creation and deletion. signed, Rosguill talk 14:58, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

Hi, I'm re-applying for the NPP rights, as it was revoked due to inactivity. I've become active, and spending atleast 6h a day editing. I am now fully confident that I can tackle tasks related to NPP and AfC. Over the last few weeks, I've created 25 articles, edited at least 100 articles, and made over 500 edits in the span of 3–6 months since the start of 2026. I have also participated in AfD and, for the first time, closed an AfD discussion with the help of an admin on the Wikipedia Discord group. I'd like to regain this access, as I will be contributing regularly. Thank you. Tatupiplu’✦ talk 06:03, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions and your interest in this permission. Reviewing your contributions thus far, I'm not quite seeing enough relevant experience with article creation and deletion--some of your recent article creations have been highlighted as not quite meeting WP:GNG (e.g. Frozen Heart EP, and to my reading Live at St Pancras Old Church). The latter of those two articles is particularly concerning, as it includes text saying In an article by Waterloo Records, the band recalled the start of the tour...: this is misleading, as the page in question is not an article as suggested by the text, but rather is a store page, where virtually all the text is attributed to Smoke Fairies. I would recommend getting a bit more experience with notability guidelines, and would encourage participation at WP:AFD to that end.  Not done for now. signed, Rosguill talk 15:58, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply and consideration, it was helpful. Re. Waterloo Records, you are right; my comment should have stated Smoke Fairies "quoted as saying", rather than "in an article". It was not intended to mislead. I included it because I considered that it added a point of interest to the article, that could not be found elsewhere. I will continue to gain experience and will reapply for this permission in due course. Thanks again. Tony Tbrown2892 (talk) 15:23, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
Hi again. Sorry, regarding Wiki:GNG as per your comment, I chose to include those two articles, in the overall context of the artist's body of work, for completeness. I agree they are a bit light in terms of detail, but nevertheless are of interest to the overall subject. Thanks again Tony Tbrown2892 (talk) 15:32, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

Requests for pending changes reviewer

Pending changes reviewer

Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights Hello. I'd like to request the ability to accept or decline pending changes on both of my accounts (User:Wikipedian12512 and User:Wikipedian12512(alt). I've read the relevant policies (BLP, Vandalism, Copyright Violations, etc.), and think that I could do a reasonable (to start, I'd probably get better over time) job. Thank you! Wikipedian12512 (Talking is fine | contribs) 13:07, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

To be clear, this would be for both my accounts. In solidarityWikipedian12512 (Talking is fine | contribs) 17:04, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

I'm requesting this right to fight vandalism in PCR-protected articles. I have read the policies and have a basic understanding. This means I can deal with not-that-simple vandalism such as citation to ads and inserting AI-slop, which might be more common in PCR-protected articles. -- Least Action (talk) 14:08, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

OK, I've reviewed what I was told at my last request. I now have over 200 mainspace edits. I've tried singing up to CVU/A, and now I'm just waiting. Requesting rollback permissions to try AntiVandal, Interceptor, and Huggle. And everything else. Patrolling RecentChanges seems to be the only thing I do nowadays, and I would like rollback to be able to fight vandals better. AZenit3 [Chat?-stuff I've done] 01:47, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

Been patrolling recent changes for some time now with Twinkle, and I would like to try using more advanced tools like Huggle which require this permission. TheNerdzilla (talk) 13:45, 29 May 2026 (UTC)

I've been using Twinkle for reporting potential SPs, creating deletion discussions and for notifying new users of unsourced edits. I'm requesting permission to the rollback tool as it'd assist me in reverting vandalism and malicious edits. Retro music11 (talk) 20:47, 30 May 2026 (UTC)

Hello. I have rollback in my account at Simple Wikipedia. Having tried this evening to counter the activities of ~2026-33439-05 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log), I think it would be useful to have rollback here too. I work almost exclusively on cricket articles at present, and it is a subject that frequently attracts vandals. Thanks. Jack (talk) 19:28, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

Requests for temporary account IP viewer

Temporary account IP viewer

Would like to be able to check for signs of loutsocking on articles. I have suspicions that someone has done some very slow loutsocking on the article for Nathan Vasquez for example. Insanityclown1 (talk) 03:34, 12 May 2026 (UTC)

@Insanityclown1: I'm not sure how this perm would help identify LOUTSOCKing? It can compare temporary accounts to one another, which can detect when one person is operating multiple temporary accounts, but it can't connect temporary accounts to registered editors, which is what would show LOUTSOCKing. Can you please clarify? Best, HouseBlaster (talk • he/they) 04:07, 18 May 2026 (UTC)
Perhaps not the correct use of the term loutsocking, but what I was referring to is it appears that the same person is using multiple temporary accounts to insert the same diatribe. Insanityclown1 (talk) 04:41, 18 May 2026 (UTC)
Regarding Nathan Vasquez (lawyer), this permission would not help in cases where edits are this stale/far apart. IP address information is deleted when a temporary account expires 90 days after the edit is made. -- Reconrabbit (talk) 16:35, 20 May 2026 (UTC)

I am requesting to be a Temporary account IP viewer to deal with vandalism. Recently temporary accounts have been making disruptive edits on the pages Grachi and Esmeralda Pimentel. Knowing if multiple temporary accounts are from the same IP address with be useful when reporting vandalism. I agree to the policy and will only use the addresses for the prevention of vandalism.

Hello, I recently started working on reverting vandalism and monitoring the recent changes page, so I will need this permission. I would like to add that I have sufficient knowledge of this permission as I hold it on Wikidata, and I am the one who wrote and created the policy of this permission on the Arabic Wikipedia (which is currently under voting). I fully agree with the Wikimedia Foundation privacy policy.

Also, for transparency, Just wanted to mention that I currently have a 6-month partial block (page creation & file moves) on Egyptian Wikipedia (arzwiki) due to a false report from an LTA WMF-banned user. There is already an active case with the UCoC committee about this (for more details: meta:Universal Code of Conduct/Coordinating Committee/Cases/2026/Abuse of power, collusion with a Global LTA, and suppression of appeal rights on arzwiki). Since it's a local partial restriction under official review, it won't affect my work here. Thank You. ^_^ -- 🐦‍🔥 Aws 💬 Talk 23:19, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

 Not done virtually all of the edits to en.wiki are from this month (June 2026), that’s not really within the spirit of the guidelines. Would recommend coming back after three months of consistent activity. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:17, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

I'm involved in both NPP and AFC, and have been reporting a lot of accounts to SPI recently. I've noticed that a lot of pages often have been targeted by several different sock farms, and this permission would enable me to see if TA's that also frequently edit those topics/recreated deleted pages are linked with other TAs. Additionally, there is an IP sock farm (the Toñito edit summary IP sock farm) that I have been following for around a month now, and I have every page that farm has edited ever on my watchlist and am actively monitoring that. This permission would make it easier to determine when TAs edit the same pages, if they are linked to that TA farm or not. EaglesFan37 (talk) 17:21, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
