Indefinite extended-confirmed protection: Contentious topic restriction and IP vandalism. It won't cause much collateral damage, as users can continue to contribute through the edit request, which helps to prevent vandalism and biased edits. This elections are based on political parties and similar to 2024 Indian general election. Recent edits suggest some users (particularly an IP without username) deliberately trying to alter the parties in the column, instead of using the calculated projection.1 2 This kind of swapping will happen again and again, to favour their political views instead of facts.

Current requests for reduction in protection level
Before posting a request for unprotection, please discuss it with the protecting administrator first. You can create a request below only if you receive no response from them.
To find out which administrator protected the page, go to the page's edit history and click on the "View logs for this page" link (located underneath the page's title). The protecting administrator is listed in the protection log entry, next to the words "protected", "changed protection level", or "configured pending changes". If there are a large number of log entries on the page, use the drop-down menu near the top of the page and select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" to filter the logs accordingly.
DO NOT request a reduction in protection if...
- ...you are being prevented from editing the page. A desire to change content is not a valid reason for unprotection. Instead:
- If you can edit the article's talk page, use the WP:Edit Request Wizard to propose a change on the article's talk page. Include an explanation of the exact content that you want to change, and what the content will be afterward.
- If the article's talk page is protected, you may propose a change at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection/Edit.
- ...your reasoning for reducing protection is that the article has not been vandalized. That simply means the protection is working as intended.
- ...your reasoning for reducing protection is basically "a long time has passed" without supporting details.
- ...you haven't contacted the protecting administrator.
You may request a protection reduction below if...
- ...you want to change the protection level of a template or module from full protection to template protection. You may add the request to this page without having to discuss it with the protecting administrator first.
- ...you need to remove creation protection from a location where no page exists (redlinked pages) after a draft version of the intended article is prepared beforehand and ready to be published.
- ...you are proposing a trial reduction in protection for a page that has been protected for several years, provided the proposal is supported by evidence such as talk page activity, page views, page traffic, number of watchers, frequency of edit requests, and prior history of vandalism.
- ...the protecting administrator is inactive or has not responded to you in several days.
If you cannot locate your request, make sure to check the request archives to see if it's been moved there. Only requests that have been recently answered will still be listed here.
Reason: The merge backlog was very large when these were protected 12 years ago. Now it's much smaller and given the changes happening to the categories and to the merge proposal process itself and its templates, the protection should be at the very least lowered to 30/500. The one transcluded the most has less than 750 transclusions, and the other two have half that. From WP:TPROT: (emphasis supplied)
This protection level should be used almost exclusively on high-risk templates and modules. [...] It should be used on templates whose risk factor would have otherwise warranted full protection. [...] the existence of the right should not result in more templates becoming uneditable for the general editing community. [...] In borderline cases, extended confirmed protection or lower can be applied to high risk templates [...]
And per the high risk templates guideline cited above, there is consensus to permanently semiprotect templates with at least around 200–250 transclusions and to permanently extended-confirmed protect templates with roughly 2500–5000 transclusions, which is less than 7 times the number of transclusions of these templates and which keeps decreasing as the backlog continues to get smaller. FaviFake (talk) 18:06, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
- TL;DR: Back when these were protected, they were transcluded into a LOT more pages, so now the protection is obsolete and should be lowered to 30/500 per the high risk templates guideline. FaviFake (talk) 17:50, 15 November 2025 (UTC)
Reason: There is presently a draft article located at Draft:Anand Mishra. The subject has been elected as a member of a subnational legislature in India and therefore meets WP:POLITICIAN. Lefcentreright Discuss 15:59, 15 November 2025 (UTC)
Current requests for edits to a protected page
Please add an edit request to the talk page of the protected page before adding an edit request here
Requests for specific edits should be made on the talk page of the protected article. You can create an edit request below only if the talk page is also protected, preventing you from adding a request there.
- You may add the appropriate template (
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}) to the article's talk page if you would like to request an edit be made. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - For edit requests being made due to the editor having a conflict of interest with the article subject (see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}template should be used instead of the others listed above. - Requests to move pages that are currently move-protected should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not on this page.
- This page is not for holding discussions regarding content. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit that you wish to be performed.
Otherwise, this is the correct place to use in order to add an edit request if you are unable to add one to the article's talk page. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to properly add a request.

Autopatrolled
Hello! I formally request the autopatrolled user right. I'm a regular user of Wikipedia, both in English and Spanish, and I consider that, after so many years and hundreds of articles created on both wikis, i am in the position to say that I know the rules and styles. I've never cared much about user rights, but now that I've started a personal project (ambassadors of Spain and all its lists) to expand diplomatic information about my country, Spain, I'd like to avoid the workload that comes with reviewing articles that comply with our rules. Thank you. TheRichic
Hello! I formally request the Autopatrolled user right. I'm a regular user of Wikipedia, both in Turkish and English. I have contributed to the Turkish Wikipedia, particularly on the Tao-Klarjeti region. I have also started to transfer these contributions to the English Wikipedia. I think it would be good to reduce the workload involved in reviewing the items I have written. Thank you. --ႧႤႧႰႨ ႾႠႰႨ (talk) 15:32, 15 October 2025 (UTC)

Have been creating several new articles recently, and I understand the policies and guidelines behind articles. BenTanXiaoMing (talk) 20:45, 5 November 2025 (UTC)
I've created about 80 articles, mostly about books, and have been encouraged to apply for autopatrolled by a few NPRs who have reviewed them. None of the pages I have created have been tagged for content issues or nominated for deletion (apart from one speedy deletion that was reversed by the deleting admin). I am also an NPR, a regular AfD participant, and a trainee copyright clerk, so I think I have a decent understanding of notability and content guidelines. Thanks for considering this request, and happy to answer any questions or concerns about the articles I've created! MCE89 (talk) 10:20, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
TTW has created 166 articles since 2011. It was a pleasure to review Prehistoric Future at NPP. I recommended that they apply for AP, and they said they would look into the process. I didn't feel comfortable nominating on their behalf then, however with about 2-3 months more experience I think I am able to justify doing so now. Their record is free of any controversy, aside from a minor close-paraphrasing copyvio PROD in 2013. I do not believe this should disqualify them, especially as this was 12 years ago. Recent articles, such as Burnin' Hot, are well researched and are entirely free of problems, meaning a new page reviewer doesn't need to do anything other than mark the article as reviewed. I am very happy to advocate for AP on behalf of TTW and look forward to seeing more excellent content creation from them on the project in the future! 11WB (talk) 10:56, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
I am requesting the Autopatrolled right. I routinely work with new drafts in AfC, and I am familiar with identifying drafts that do not meet notability or sourcing requirements. On several occasions I have tagged or nominated drafts for deletion when they were promotional or non-policy compliant, which shows that I understand Wikipedia’s content standards. The new articles I create follow reliable sourcing, neutral tone, and notability guidelines; therefore they do not require routine patrol. Receiving Autopatrolled would reduce the workload on New Page Patrol and allow reviewers to focus on higher-risk pages. I fully understand the responsibilities associated with this right. Thank you.

New page reviewer
I've had probationary patroller rights for a month now and I've been enjoying helping with the NPP backlog and participating in AfC. I'd like to request my patroller right be extended. Thanks! SnowyRiver28 (talk) 23:21, 3 November 2025 (UTC)
I am interested in being granted the new page reviewer right. I have an extensive history of editing on Wikipedia, having created over two dozen well-sourced articles on a variety of topics, as well as expanding and improving stubs and starts to C class at least. I also regularly review citations to verify them when it seems appropriate, including recently acquiring an EPUB edition of a book for one article. I have come upon a few articles recently that havent been reviewed yet, and it would be useful to help get those squared away. I frequently work with other editors to develop a consensus where everyone is satisfied, particularly but not only in contentious areas. And I enjoy helping to guide newer users on how to construct a good quality article. I am also deeply anti-LLM so I will be on the lookout for such junk. With this right, I would continue to verify and improve citations, etc. Sadly, there is a seemingly limitless supply of poorly cited legacy and newer articles. ← Metallurgist (talk) 22:40, 5 November 2025 (UTC)

I have been editing for quite a while now, and I have also worked on many new articles, including Stubs. I was recently also granted the right to review pending changes. I would like to receive this right because I work in this area and would also really want to help reduce the backlog. Shubhsamant09 (talk) 03:39, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
Had my one-month trial granted almost a month ago and would like to renew, I've found this to be deeply fulfilling and I've made some good friends! I've reviewed 423 drafts in 3 weeks, significantly helping reduce the backlog at AfC, and reviewed 196 new mainspace articles. Keen to keep helping out. aesurias (talk) 03:38, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
I am requesting the New Page Reviewer right. I have experience reviewing drafts through AfC and tagging pages for speedy deletion, including promotional and non-notable content. I am familiar with core content policies such as WP:N, WP:COI, and WP:NPOV, and I routinely assess articles for compliance with these standards. This permission would allow me to help reduce the backlog in new page patrol and support quality control across newly created articles. Thank you. Vodnir (talk) 00:21, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
Hi! I was given temporary new page reviewer rights around a month ago, and am requesting an extension. I have really enjoyed the process of NPP and also AfC, and have found my niche to be detecting LLM generated content. I have had many recent CSDs and deletion discussions related to new pages that I hope help show my understanding of content policies. Thank you for your consideration & happy editing as always =) – LuniZunie ツ(talk) 20:56, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
I would like New Page Reviewer rights to help review pages and redirects and reduce the backlog. I am familiar with Wikipedia policies. --pro-anti-air ––>(talk)<–– 04:57, 15 November 2025 (UTC)
As a current rollbacker and pending changes reviewer, I am requesting the new page reviewer permission. I have a solid understanding of Wikipedia's quality control processes, have participated in WP:AFD discussions, and have reviewed 31 good article nominations (GANs) and one featured article candidate (FAC) to date. I participated in more AFD discussions after an administrator recommended I do this in a failed request. In addition, I assessed some new articles' ratings on their talk pages (for examples, see the histories of Talk:Churchill Gowns, Talk:Pogledi (disambiguation), Talk:Join (graph theory), and Talk:List of NoSQL software and tools). Furthermore, as of this post, I have five successful GANs (see this page), and two of them were articles I wrote (Noriko Takaya and Ochaco Uraraka). I have engaged civilly with other editors, and to date, I have never been blocked. I have contributed to Wikipedia on a volunteer basis and expect to continue doing so for the foreseeable future. Z.

Page mover
Hi there! I’m requesting page mover rights because, while patrolling new pages, I sometimes come across pages that need to be draftified and when I do so, unnecessary redirects are left behind. I’ve also encountered cases where a new page has a typo in its title and when I move it to the correct name, I have to leave a redirect behind. I have occasionally contributed to requested moves, though not very frequently. Thanks, ScrabbleTiles (talk) 08:10, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
Hello, I am an AFC reviewer, and recently going through a lot of pages that move from userspace to draftspace, using the tool on Template:AfC submission. This makes me the creator of future sandboxes, which I have then noticed developing into pages I am uninvolved with. So I would like to request for redirect suppression. Also, as a gnome, I would be more than willing to help out at WP:RM, which at the moment has over a dozen requests in the uncontroversial section, as well as a backlog of elapsed listings going back over a month. You can see some of my Gnome work in redirect requests (for which I am psuedo-autopatrolled, which is also a good reason for me to suppress redirects), AFC listings, NPR (mostly redirects, but it would be nice to suppress redirects on draftifications, although I dont do that much anymore), and some recent changes patrolling. There have also been a few times I wanted to create redirects as an AFC/R patroller, but was blocked by the blacklist. I've read the policies on page moving, and would continue to refer back to them as I learn the rest of what goes on at RM, until I understand them all. Happy Editing -- IAmChaos 05:07, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
Hi! I'm requesting page mover permissions primarily for closing category discussions and speedy discussions, since I've noticed myself becoming more active in category discussions this year. However, I will still let everyone know about new requests that I plan on executing, even those that are noncontroversial. - OpalYosutebito 『talk』 『articles I want to eat』 02:29, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
Hi, I'm a trial NPP and AfC reviewer and intend to be more active in that area and will need the perm to surpress redirects while draftifying articles. I also have some experience in closing RMs and want to help out with the occassional backlog at WP:RM/TR, where I do the requests that I technically can and comment on other requests.

Pending changes reviewer
I have over a 1,000 edits, and I would like to help out. Thanks! Wikieditor662 (talk) 01:18, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
Hello all. I’d like to be a pending changes reviewer to help keep articles accurate and reliable. I’m interested in taking on more responsibility and expanding my experience and role on Wikipedia. Thank you! Erin1973 (talk) 17:58, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
I'm an active recent changes patroller, and often see pending revisions show up; would be useful to be able to act upon these as I see them. Nil🥝 00:31, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
I would like to become a pending changes reviewer because I think I could help quite a lot in the process of reviewing pending revision changes. I am notably experienced (450+ edits in mainspace, 1200 edits total) and do not have any COI with any article. I also think I should become a pending changes reviewer because I would really like to contribute to the community in more ways, as I am very much involved in the fight against vandalism by my efforts as a recent changes patroller. I am familiar with the policies of Wikipedia and have not had any edit wars or the sort (excluding warnings) with anyone in a considerably long time. I also do not have any biases to any pages, only adding information by collecting references from other sources. Thank you! Theeverywhereperson (talk here) 09:04, 16 November 2025 (UTC) |

Rollback
I've been patrolling recent changes for over six months, and I feel like I now have enough experience dealing with vandalism (and other forms of disruptive editing) to be able to make useful contributions in this area with the additional technical abilities and access to tools granted through the rollback perm. I've used Twinkle and more recently Ultraviolet extensively (though not exclusively), so I know my way around the general "one-click revert" paradigm, and I almost always use appropriate edit summaries and talk page warnings. If I'd benefit from any constructive criticism, please let me know. Seercat3160 (talk) 02:35, 9 November 2025 (UTC)
Longtime recent-changes patroller, habitual twinkle user, did not realise I didn't have this right. 😅 It would make my counter-vandalism work much easier. Thanks in advance! I am travelling so there may be some delayed responses to any questions, at least from my usual time zone. Smallangryplanet (talk) 23:11, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
Reason for requesting rollback rights I have been recent-changes patroller for a long time on and off, also am a proud twinkle user. I kind of did not realise I didn't have this right, gaining the sacred right would make my counter-vandalism work much easier. Thanks for reading this :) Kajjul (talk) 16:19, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
I have been patrolling recent changes a lot recently and have undone more than 400 edits in the past 2 weeks. I use ultraviolet. I would like to request this so that I can use AntiVandal. SuperCode111 (talk) 02:30, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
I'm mostly a WP:GNOME, am active on WP:AIC and spend a fair amount of time finding and reverting various WP:VANDALisms, mostly using Twinkle but I would like to try using Huggle (which requires rollback). I generally use the standard warning templates to notify editors of my reverts, but sometimes I leave messages with more detailed explanations or asking them to WP:LLMDISCLOSE. My request for PCR permissions includes a bit more on what I'd been doing on Wikipedia. --Gurkubondinn (talk) 12:10, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
I’ve been patrolling recent changes consistently and have handled a substantial amount of vandalism. I also pending changes reviewing rights. Gaining rollback rights would allow me to respond more quickly and effectively, especially during spikes in vandalism, and would support the work I’m already doing. Shubhsamant09 (talk) 00:55, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
Hello whom you may be, I am requesting for Rollback rights to revert obvious vandalism. I monitored recent changes for around 2 weeks (at time of writing) and rollback will help alot, Thanks Theknoledgeableperson(have a chat) 20:35, 14 November 2025 (UTC) |

Template editor
Extensive history of editing templates, to be used for non-controversial tweaks and additions. MB2437 10:32, 10 November 2025 (UTC)
I would like to be able to edit some pages protected using template editor restriction, such as Huggle config. I used to be a global interface editor repeatedly in the past which allowed me to edit nearly any page across all wikimedia projects (see https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AGlobalUserRights&user=Petrb), but it was revoked automatically over time. Petrb (talk) 14:45, 12 November 2025 (UTC) Petrb (talk) 14:45, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
I have been stepping up my template editing in recent months, and believe that I meet the requirements. I likely haven't made 5 significant edits to template-protected modules, but I think it's more than 0. I'll leave that up to the reviewer, though. I have contributed a number of simple templates that have become relatively standard-use in a short period of time, including {{Game-won}} and related templates, as well as {{Hockey season stats entry}} and related templates.

Temporary account IP viewer
I am a dedicated counter-vandal/abuse/spam editor as well as a gnome/copyeditor. Having this permission would make all of these tasks easier, especially for complex counter-subtle-vandalism edits. I also edit in a CTOP (A-I) that sees its fair share of what was once IP user abuse, especially on talk pages, so having this permission would make countering vandalism or abuse there easier as well (I've already encountered some suspicious behaviour from temp accounts where this permission would have been helpful.) I have read the policy document and agree to the terms and conditions etc. Let me know if you have any questions, I'm travelling so responses may be delayed. Thanks in advance! Smallangryplanet (talk) 23:06, 11 November 2025 (UTC)
Hi, I'm a cross-wiki patroller who active in revert bad/LTA edits. I will need this right to check whether an IP of a vandal is an open proxy or whether an IP abusing multiple of temporary accounts to evade a vandalism investigating. I have read and understand WP:TAIVDISCLOSE. Thanks, Nvdtn19 (talk) 07:45, 12 November 2025 (UTC)
Would be extremely helpful for me when dealing with genre warriors and vandals. I have read and agree to the guidelines. FMSky (talk) 13:34, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
Advised to apply at Wikipedia:Help desk#How do I deal with temporary accounts?. I usually don't need to see IP addresses and would spend most of my time with this turned off, but I often work on alternative medicine and pseudoscience articles. Every so often I end up facing an army of sockpuppets and/or IP accounts because I am interfering with the profits of someone who is selling magic cancer pills or seeking investors in their perpetual motion free energy machine, at which point I do research using IP addresses a lot. I have read and fully agree with WP:TAIVDISCLOSE. Editor for over 19 years with 59,000 edits. Author of of the widely-read essays WP:1AM and WP:YWAB. Guy Macon (talk) 17:10, 13 November 2025 (UTC)
I have read and understand the Foundation's guidelines for use of this right. I've edited for over twenty years with over sixty thousand edits, and I'm active at ANI, so the right would be essential in investigating IPs/LTAs.

Requesting the rights as a new page patroller. I've read and fully agree to the Foundation's guidelines. - The9Man Talk 12:47, 14 November 2025 (UTC) - The9Man Talk 12:47, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
I would like to make cross-wiki vandalism reports for en:Georgetown Independent School District like I had been doing before temporary accounts where introduced. This permission only needs to be within the /8 range of User Talk:24.155.147.109. However, it should expire after May 23, 2026 due to me permanently leaving the district at that point. I need to know what Temporary Accounts are attached to the ips to give the network administrators an idea of who is breaking the student code of conduct.(can be seen here) I know that *this account* does not currently have the time-based requirement, but my primary account for non-school purposes does. If you need to check this, ask arbcom or CU. I think this clearly soars over the requirements need even though it is over 2 accounts. Even if it doesn't or can't check, I believe that this fits under the exception listed at Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer due to me being the only person who is willing to go to the network administrators in person as soon as I notice the vandalism. PS. If you need proof of me doing this inside of the school district, I can ask an AP to send an email, or a CU can be done. - Flower (she/her; Accounts) 02:18, 15 November 2025 (UTC)
Hi, rollbacker and pending changes reviewer here. I believe the permission could come in handy on some occasions – rare, but still potentially useful if the time comes. I've been following the implementation of temporary accounts and I'm aware of the Foundation's guidelines associated with this permission. Yacàwotçã (talk) 08:43, 15 November 2025 (UTC)
I have read and understand the Foundation’s guidelines for this right. I have opened some SPI cases in the past that involved IPs. Regarding this right, I don't anticipate using it often, but when I come across potential LTA cases, it would be useful to have this right for investigation. Ckfasdf (talk) 05:09, 16 November 2025 (UTC)
My watchlist is littered with TA, with 30% edits are vandalisms, often in the same page, but with different account, e.g. recently. I read and acccept the policies regarding this right. Usually when I run into vanndal IP, I cneck all their contribuutions and very often I find olded unnoticed vandalism. NOw I noo longer can doo this. And this is the sole reason I am requesting this right. --Altenmann >talk 08:26, 16 November 2025 (UTC) |
