Ratherous (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · nuke contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) This user has repeatedly engaged in edits that align with Russian disinformation narratives by including occupied territories as part of Russia, despite these areas being internationally recognized as part of Ukraine. When challenged on this, they dismissed concerns and refused to acknowledge established facts under international law. It violates WP:NPOV (Neutral Point of View), WP:V (Verifiability), WP:DISRUPT (Disruptive Editing). I have engaged in discussions with this user, attempting to clarify why Wikipedia should not reflect the territorial claims of an occupying force. However, they continue to insist that the issue is “not about sovereignty” and refuse to acknowledge the broader implications of their edits. They have also responded dismissively to multiple editors raising similar concerns. (talk) 15:20, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Salaariseave (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading and promotional username. Appears to be using userpage as a webhost for links to promotional posts on other channels; Username is that of a well-lnown person. Geoff | ^{Who, me?} 16:14, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
Not a violation of the username policy. Stage names and pen 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. Fathoms Below (talk) 22:17, 29 January 2025 (UTC)

Not a blatant violation of the username policy. Please discuss this with the user first, and consider opening a community discussion at Requests for comment/User names if they disagree with your concerns. To block without warning, there must be some connection between the account name and their edits, I may have missed it, but I haven't seen one. 331dot (talk) 09:46, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

I also note that they've had this username since 2021. 331dot (talk) 09:48, 30 January 2025 (UTC)
Shiva and Parvati (talk · contribs · deleted · filter log · SUL · Google) • (block · soft · promo · cause · bot · hard · spam · vandal) – Violation of the username policy as a misleading username. An account name with "and" in the middle like this implies two people are operating it. No problem with the edits, just the misleading name. MarcGarver (talk) 08:29, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

MarcGarver, since Shiva and Parvati are deities instead of people, I fail to see the problem. Cullen328 (talk) 08:50, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

I guess that's a fair point, although they are equally used as people's names (e.g., Aerial and Gabriel are angels, but also people's names). MarcGarver (talk) 09:51, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

If that's your concern, I would suggest discussing it with the user, and if your concerns are not addressed, you may bring it to WP:RFCN. 331dot (talk) 09:56, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Not a blatant violation of the username policy. 331dot (talk) 09:44, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Sean Duffy

Sean Duffy (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: Sean Duffy is the new US Secretary of Transportation; a small section on his position on climate change keeps being changed or partly deleted by IPs. One deletion was explained by climate change "not [being] a proven fact", and another edit replaced the term "climate change denial" with "thoughtful discourse regarding climate change". WikiFouf (talk) 13:28, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Declined – Likely collateral damage as one or several users who are making improvements would be affected by the requested protection. This board doesn't operate to protect specific subject content; we apply protection when the page is under active attack. I see normal editing processes at work. I see several new accounts and ip users making useful contributions at this time. High activity is expected when a public figure is 1) in Congress for confirmation and 2) when their department responds appropriately to accidents. BusterD (talk) 14:04, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Powerslam

Powerslam (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: A user keeps amending this page to include a note under the “Side Slam” section stating, “Bryan Beal of Berkeley Heights Township Wrestling performs a version called The Beal Bomb.” Neither this wrestler (Bryan Beal) nor the promotion (Berkeley Heights Township Wrestling) hold any form of notoriety in professional wrestling; searching for both “Bryan Beal wrestler” and “Berkeley Heights Township Wrestling” in popular search engines yields no results. This is clearly someone trying to amend the article to include their name to show off to friends or something. I’ve removed the reference a number of times now, and each time it is reverted. The latest reversion even admits the above (“BK Heights Township wrestling is a local house show.”) A local house show does not, to me, seem to satisfy Wikipedia’s requirements of notoriety and therefore warrant inclusion in the article.

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'm concerned that many of the articles on lifeboat stations don't meet GNG. After looking at a random sampling of them, most of them cite the Lifeboat Enthusiasts Society (of which Martin states they are a member of on their talk page), which appears to be an WP:SPS, and The Lifeboat, a publication of the RNLI, which is not an independent source. voorts (talk/contributions) 03:15, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

@Voorts I would have thought the same thing when I first encountered these articles, but there are several independent published sources on these lifesaving stations. Whenever I've done a BEFORE search on one, I always find GNG-qualifying sourcing. This came up in an AfD for one of Ojsyork's creations last year (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bamburgh Castle Lifeboat Station), which resulted in a "keep".

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)

Not done. Hello Needforname and thanks for your contributions. All your articles seem to be in need of a decent copyedit, and therefore can use another pair of eyes. The criteria for giving autopatrolled are that the articles need to be 'nearly perfect'. One way to improve the English in your article is to nominate one of your articles at WP:GOCE, and learn from the mistakes that are corrected. Or you can use an LLM and ask it to find grammatical errors. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 21:12, 29 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)

(Non-administrator comment) You are currently not adding to the "workload of new page patrollers", in fact, your creations need to be watched closely. Not when I specifically told you here that the pieces you presented to inquire about Bobo Ajudua are thrash and nonsensical and told you to focus elsewhere instead of on an article that has been deleted several times. Yet, you went ahead to create it, and now, it has been deleted again? via AfD. And this? Your creations need to be watched and that is what the NPP is for.

Could you please point to where the date of birth of Gautam Vig is referenced, C1K98V? Schwede 66 08:14, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Schwede66, I hope you enjoyed your vacation. I have sourced the DOB in the early life section as per WP:INFOBOXREF. I followed the editing style of Geniac, the way he improved Sheezan Khan and tried adapting the same. Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 08:48, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks, I had a fab wee holiday. I don't understand your answer. I see that there is one ref in the infobox, and that reference does confirm the date of birth, but it is attached to the spouse only. Could you please explain what you mean, and how the referencing confirms the date of birth, C1K98V? Schwede 66 08:59, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Schwede66 In the above mentioned article I have sourced the date of birth in the Early life section, see here. And the spouse's source is just about their marriage. I'm following the editing style of Geniac, the improvement he did in one of my previously created article see here. Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 09:38, 17 January 2025 (UTC)

Sorry, which reference states the date of Vig's date of birth? I cannot see it. Schwede 66 18:29, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

Schwede66, I have used two sources for DOB, Colors TV and India Today. You can find both the sources in the Early life section. Hope it helps, if you still can't verify the birth date, you're most welcome to remove it. Thanks C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 18:50, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

@C1K98V Is it just me or the webpage you're linking to from colorstv.com is redirecting to a /mena/ directory making it impossible to see what you're talking about or citing. As for the indiatoday.in, you did not initially position the citation as of when Schwede66 started reviewing your request, you only repositioned the citation today. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:07, 19 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi Vanderwaalforces, I'm not sure if the Colorstv website works outside of India. Let's wait for Schwede66 to confirm if they're able to verify it. I'm sharing a screenshot of the website for reference [1]. While searching for sources related to their academics, I found IndiaToday and added it later in the Early life section. I repositioned the named citation as I wanted to highlight it for Schwede66, so I left an edit summary too. Thanks for your consideration. C1K98V ^{(💬 ✒️ 📂)} 03:43, 20 January 2025 (UTC)

Dear Wikipedia Administrators,

I am writing to request the necessary permissions to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on my Wikipedia account. I value the security of my account and believe that adding 2FA will provide an additional layer of protection, ensuring the safety of my contributions and the integrity of my account.

My Contributions: Username: Jjackson10003 Account Details: Autoconfirmed user since August 10, 2020, with 10 edits to date. I have actively contributed to Wikipedia by [briefly describe your contributions, such as editing specific articles, creating pages, or participating in discussions]. Reason for Request: As technology evolves, the risk of account hijacking increases, particularly with the rise of AI and changes in regimes that may encourage bad actors to exploit vulnerabilities. Enabling 2FA will significantly reduce the likelihood of unauthorized access to my account and prevent potential misuse. Ensuring account security is critical, both for individual users and for the protection of Wikipedia’s broader community and platform integrity.

While I am currently an autoconfirmed user, I understand that 2FA is typically reserved for users with advanced permissions. I kindly request that I be considered for either extended confirmed user status or temporary access to enable 2FA.

Commitment to Wikipedia Standards: I am committed to following Wikipedia’s policies and guidelines, ensuring that my contributions adhere to community standards. I believe that my request aligns with the shared goal of maintaining a secure and trustworthy environment for editors and the broader Wikipedia community.

Thank you for considering my request. Please let me know if there is any additional information or clarification needed. I am happy to provide further details about my contributions or intentions.

Sincerely, Jjackson10003 Jjackson10003 (talk) 16:00, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

Not done We do not consider requests that were rather obviously generated by AI. --Kinu ^t/_c 16:02, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

In addition to what Kinu said, extended confirmed doesn't confer the ability to enable 2FA. You'll need to follow the instructions at H:ACCESS2FA. stwalkerster (talk) 17:05, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

I've been Wiki-editing since 2018 and have become a familiar face on the snooker project. I'm accustomed to creating articles and redirects, and I'm fully conversant with Wikipedia policies and guidelines. I've co-nominated three articles for FAC (all promoted) and contributed to many other FACs. I've been a pending changes reviewer since May 2020, and I like to think I am fair and neutral in any discussions that I get involved in. With over 24,000 main space edits to my name, I've been quite an active editor over the years, and I think I could make a useful contribution as a New page reviewer.

I've been editing for over five years with 2.2K mainspace edits, which includes over 30 new articles. In May 2024, Clovermoss gave me a three-month trial of the NPP permission, and I got the reviewer barnstar in that month's backlog drive. I sparingly used AFD and CSD during my reviewing, but that is mostly because when I found deficient articles, I spent the time to make them passable, rather than sending them for draftification/deletion. When I did propose content for deletion, I generally received community consensus to do so. I am seeking the permission for permanent use, but another trial works too!

Not done for now due to lack of need (zero edits to WP:RMTR and only one attempted and failed move). Please feel free to request moves there and if they get done by others consider rerequesting. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 03:59, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Recently active back at RM for the past three months after being extremely active many years ago. I was brought to MR twice in 2013 & 2015 and in both cases my closure was endorsed. I have !voted recently in most of the recent months of MR and always aligned with consensus. Spent the last three months getting reacquainted with the changes in policy and approaches to RM's and have started to perform some closures. Would appreciate the bit to help reduce the need for CSD#G6 and/or RM/TR to complete some of these moves. Thanks! TiggerJay (talk) 08:47, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Do you find yourself actually needing this, or are you just ticking the box because you meet the minimum requirements? I note that you have an RM/TR request and a couple of G6's, but otherwise not much in the way of necessity so far. Primefac (talk) 15:21, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Currently I'm avoiding some NAC because I am not really a fan of using TR because what I've found is that the admin who does perform the TR ends up doing all of the busy work (post move cleanup). IMHO the closer should perform the dirty work of cleaning up the move, and I'm happy to do so. I would see myself closing more discussions if the bit was available. That is the reason for the low number of current TR/G6, but you can see the frequency I previously require those tools prior to a wikibreak over at my CSD log. For me the bit is not about hat collecting, but rather simply because I'm getting back involved in Wiki (due to life-schedule changes) and as a formerly trusted and well-reputed RM-NAC, these tools would make more closures with follow-on work accessible.

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.

@Ali Beary Given your recent WP:CUTPASTE move, I'd like to see a little more time for you to demonstrate your knowledge of Wikipedia policies and procedures before granting additional permissions. --Ahecht (TALK

@Ahecht, ah, apologies. I didn't realize a "request moves" page existed, and I do not have move or merge permissions. I was simply undoing something that wasn't correct... hence why I requested move perms earlier so I could fix it. Ali Beary (talk) 12:38, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

I’m requesting rollback tool to help with vandalism fighting more effectively. I’ve been active in counter-vandalism work and have a good understanding of policies like WP:VAND and WP:AGF. While I’ve made mistakes in the past, I’ve taken the feedback onboard, slowed down, and focused on making more accurate judgements.

Rollback would allow me to handle clear vandalism more efficiently without cluttering edit histories. I’m committed to using it responsibly and only for obvious cases of vandalism, leaving more complex issues for discussion or reporting.

Thank you for considering my request. Footballnerd2007 • talk ⚽ 17:27, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

Not a good idea imo, editor has not yet demonstrated ability to distinguish vandalism from good faith constructive contributions. Sorry FN, but I did say I would oppose this as your mentor, and nothing has changed imo, so here I am. CNC (talk) 02:24, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

I am re-requesting rollback after being denied around the end of December for not being consistent enough in RC patrol to meet the criteria. I understand that now and have come back with hopefully having reverted obvious and blatant vandalism more consistently over the past month. As always, I assume good faith, and when it comes to recent changes, if I see something that I'm not quite sure is vandalism or not, I won't undo it. I am well-versed in the different warning templates and when to use each one, and I know when it is appropriate to report to WP:AIV. Rollback will help me quickly undo the very obvious and problematic vandalism that I might catch on RC. Fishy-Finns (talk) 19:43, 26 January 2025 (UTC)

Reason for requesting rollback rights I mainly spend my time on Wikipedia correcting non-constructive edits and vandalism, as well as notifying users. The majority of my edits are minor changes or changes to users' talk pages. I'm requesting rollback rights so that I can better use some of the anti-vandalism tools available to me. Thanks for your time. CivilianArthur (talk) 20:44, 28 January 2025 (UTC)

I am requesting rollback rights because I spend most of my time on Wikipedia reverting vandalism, and I would like to help fight vandals more effectively. I have made some mistakes, but I mostly have a good understanding of Wikipedia policies, and I try to always WP:AGF. Rollback will also allow me to use tools like AntiVandal. Thank you.

Hello, I have been working on counter-vandalism with RedWarn for a while now. Despite my inconsistent and relatively low edit count compared to other requesters, I believe I would be a good fit. I approach CV with the idea that it is better to have somebody with malicious intentions get away with their behavior than it is to accuse an innocent person of Vandalism. I aim for high accuracy over total reverts. I have made mistakes in the past but I am usually quick to notice and fix them. The main reason I am requesting Rollback is to gain experience with the Huggle desktop application.

Thank you for the consideration and I look forward to hearing back. UndeadAnarchy|✉ 14:46, 30 January 2025 (UTC)

Hi. I would like to request the rights to edit certain templates, such as the {{piechart}} template and its associated module, important when its usage increases. I want to have these rights in advance so I can apply fixes when needed.

I am already a sysop on pl-wiki and an interface admin on several wikis, including meta-wiki. See more on my page: User:Nux.

In real life, I am a library systems programmer with professional experience in WCAG and hold a certificate in web accessibility, which is useful for certain aspects of template development (colors, structure). I also work on gadgets and CI/CD scripts, such as Wikipedia:Wikiploy, which, while less relevant to templates, demonstrates my programming experience — an important skill for working with Lua modules.

Oh, I did read the guidelines. I even translated them into Polish; it didn't gain traction on plwiki, but at least now I know them :) Nux (talk) 20:37, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
