Administrator instructions

Requests for permissions
This page enables administrators to handle requests for permissions on the English Wikipedia. Administrators are able to modify account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, file mover, extended confirmed, mass message sender, new page reviewer, page mover, pending changes reviewer, rollback, template editor rights and AutoWikiBrowser access.
Editors wishing to request a permission flag here should do so following the procedure below. Editors requesting permissions are advised to periodically revisit the requests page, as notifications will not always be given after a decision is made. Editors should not expect their request to be answered right away and should remember to be patient when filing a request. To find out what permissions your account has, go to Special:Preferences, where your permissions are listed in the user profile tab under "Member of groups".
Requests for permissions are archived regularly, please see Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Archive for an index of past requests.

Permissions

Handled here

User groups

  • Account creator (add request • view requests): The account creator flag is granted to users who are active in the request an account process. The flag removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24 hour period. It also allows users to make accounts with names similar to other accounts. The account creator flag is only given to users who participate in the ACC process and may be removed without notice should a user's participation in the account creation process cease.
  • Autopatrolled (add request • view requests): The autopatrolled flag is granted to users who are active in the creation of new articles. This tool is granted so their creations are auto patrolled in Special:NewPages. Unlike other requests, any user may nominate an editor for Autopatrolled, even without that user's consent. A user who wishes to have this flag generally should have created at least 25 articles and must be trusted, experienced, and must have demonstrated they are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, especially WP:BLP and Wikipedia:Notability.
  • AutoWikiBrowser (add request • view requests): AutoWikiBrowser is a semi-automated MediaWiki editor for Microsoft Windows, designed to make tedious repetitive tasks quicker and easier. It is essentially a browser that automatically opens up a new page when the last is saved. When set to do so, it suggests some changes (typically formatting) that are generally meant to be incidental to the main change. Please read the quick guide on the main page before requesting permission. This is not a true user right, but access needs to be granted by administrators just like other permissions. If approved, your name will be added to the CheckPage. Users with under 250 non-automated mainspace edits or 500 total mainspace edits are rarely approved. You only need to give a reason for wanting AWB access if you do not meet these qualifications.
  • Confirmed (add request • view requests): The confirmed flag may be granted to new users who have not yet hit the threshold for autoconfirmed status. These are users who have not had both 10 edits and 4 days experience. People with this flag can upload files and edit semi-protected pages before hitting the autoconfirmed flag. Users requesting this flag must indicate clearly why they should be exempted from the customary confirmation period.
  • Extended confirmed (add request • view requests): The extended confirmed flag is normally automatically added to accounts, but may be added to legitimate alternate accounts of users that already have this access. The flag allows users to edit pages under extended confirmed protection.
  • File mover (add request • view requests): The file mover user right is intended to allow users experienced in working with files to rename them, subject to policy, with the ease that autoconfirmed users already enjoy when renaming Wikipedia articles.
  • Mass message sender (add request • view requests): Mass message sender enables users to send messages to multiple users at once. This flag is given to users who have had made requests for delivery in the past, clearly showing an understanding of the guidance for use.
  • New page reviewer (add request • view requests): The new page reviewer user right allows users to mark pages as patrolled and use the page curation hoverbar.
  • Page mover (add request • view requests): The page mover user right allows users experienced in working with article names to move them, subject to policy, without leaving behind a redirect. They may also move all subpages when moving the parent page(s). General guidelines include making 3,000 edits and 6 months of editing history.
  • Pending changes reviewer (add request • view requests): The reviewer flag is granted to users who are experienced enough with Wikipedia editing and its policies for contributing to the process of reviewing articles placed under pending changes.
  • Rollback (add request • view requests): Rollback enables users to remove vandalism much more quickly and efficiently than by undoing it. Users who do not demonstrate an understanding of what constitutes capable vandalism fighting, either because they have no or little history of doing so, or show a poor ability to discern between good and bad faith edits will not be granted this right. Also, it is unlikely that editors with under 200 mainspace edits will have their request granted. For a more detailed explanation of rollback and information about when it is appropriate to use the tool, see Wikipedia:Rollback. For information about the technical details of the feature, see here.
  • Template editor (add request • view requests): The template editor flag allows users to edit protected templates and Lua modules. General guidelines for granting include making at least 1,000 edits overall (with at least 150 to templates or modules), being a registered user for over a year, and having a record of successfully proposing significant edits to several protected templates. Users should demonstrate proficiency with template syntax and an understanding of the need for caution when editing heavily-used templates.

Handled elsewhere

Several permissions are requested and handled elsewhere:

Removal of permissions

If you wish to have any of your permission flags (except administrator) removed, you should contact an administrator. If you want your administrator flag removed, you should contact a bureaucrat.

This is not the place to request review of another user's rights. If you believe someone's actions merit removal of a permission flag, you should raise your concern at the incidents noticeboard.

Note: The bureaucrat, checkuser and oversight flags cannot be removed using this process page; those need to be posted at Steward requests/Permissions. Stewards will typically not carry out such requests unless they are made on behalf of the Arbitration Committee, by a user who is requesting their own access be removed, or in cases of an emergency.

Process

Requestors

To make a request for a permission, click "add request" next to the appropriate header and fill in the reason for wanting permission.

Any editor may comment on requests for permission.

Administrators

Full instructions at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Administrator instructions

Administrators are permitted to grant account creator, autopatrolled, confirmed, file mover, mass message sender, pending changes reviewer, rollback and template editor flags to any user who meets the criteria explained above and can be trusted not to abuse the tool(s). For convenience, a bot will automatically comment with relevant data if the user does not meet configurable qualifications. Even if the bot does not comment, administrators should review the user's contributions and logs to ensure the tools will be used appropriately and check for any indication of potential misuse.

Once an administrator has granted a permission or decided to deny a request, they should add {{done}} or {{not done}} respectively under the request with their comments. If a user already has the requested permission, or is autoconfirmed and requesting confirmed, {{already done}} should be used. N hours after the last comment was made (as specified by the config), the request will be archived automatically: approved requests will be placed here; declined requests will go here. See User:MusikBot/PermClerk#Archiving for more information on archiving functionality.

I endorse this decline decision. If you've had copyvio issues in the past and a recently deleted article, going through NPP is beneficial. This right has no impact on your editing, so don't worry about it. TonyBallioni (talk) 00:24, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
Thank you @TonyBallioni: for your comment but please see again pages which created by me, there's no issues on the pages.

@TonyBallioni: What is your opinion here. please -- HindWikiConnect 00:13, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
I also endorse this decline decision. 'Autopatrolled' is not a user right per se.It gives you no benefits and does not affect your editing. It is not an award or qualification. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:33, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
Ditto. I am also concerned about the user's grasp of English, best shown in the last response here. Having a good grasp on basic grammar is a necessity for autopatrolled. Anarchyte (work | talk) 12:35, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

User:Billhpike suggested that I apply for autopatrolled permission.

Hello, I've been around Wikipedia for 12 years with a clean record. I've already been doing a significant number of monotonous edits on Apple articles (categorization, infobox consistency, nav templates, etc) and AWB would be a real time-saver for some of the future work I have in mind, especially in the area of creating a higher level of overall consistency in our operating system and software articles, revising template usage across hundreds of pages, etc. Thanks.

Not done - If the file you want to upload is available under a free license, it should be uploaded to our free media repository, the Commons.

Not done - Hi, and thank you for creating an account to edit Wikipedia. Although I fully understand your desire to dive right in, many of our articles are semi-protected because they are controversial, prone to vandalism, or other reasons. As a new editor with few edits, it might be wise to discuss your edits on the article talkpage in order to gain consensus for your edits, and then use {{Edit semi-protected}} to request the edit be performed. I only recommend this until you're used to the challenges of reliable sources, the biographies of living persons policy, and other similar policies. The good news is that fewer than 5% of Wikipedia articles are protected; this means that 95% of the articles can use your help right now! TonyBallioni (talk) 23:48, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Respected Sir/ Ma'am We desire to seek confirmation rights to upload an article to edify the global masses on India's IIG portal, one of the most recent moves by GoI.

User:Gaioa

Reviewing new pages is something I really enjoy doing - it is a pastime much less stressful than the quickly-overwhelming modus operandi over at Special:RecentChanges. It would be a lot easier for me to do so, however, if I had the possibility of labeling an article as reviewed after making sure nothing was wrong with it. Today, I just have to leave it to its fate as "unreviewed new article", a really derogatory term for articles with nothing wrong.
Of course, as seen in my talk page archive, I have a few CSD-misuses in my day, but I feel that I have grown as a Wikipedian and have a lot more sense now. Be assured I won't spam any tags or span reviewing.
Other than that, most of my edits are related to different kinds of patrolling, edit-as-you-go corrections, and redirects. My block log is completely clean, and I always strive to have at talk pages (which I succeed with 9 out of 10 times).

This is a verified alt-account for Seraphim System. I am working at AfC which often involves moving approved articles.

Not done you have two edit warring blocks on your main account within the past three months. That is a failure of granting criteria 4, unfortunately, which requires no 3RR violations or behavioral blocks for 6 months. TonyBallioni (talk) 00:10, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
Also pinging @Drmies and EdJohnston: here to confirm my reading of the block log since I know Ed's block is at ARCA. I don't think it has been overturned or ruled as invalid yet, and even if it has, I believe Drmies block is enough to disqualify per the guidelines and the log block log for edit warring. I'm just pinging for input here on the off chance that I am misreading things. TonyBallioni (talk) 00:17, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
No big deal, I should have checked the guidelines more carefully before applying. Thanks TonyBallioni. I don't think expired blocks can really be overturned, but I was definitely over-reacting that night with Drmies, I was still upset about the circumstances of the previous block and really exasperated in general, but I should've just stopped replying to what was obvious provocation - I will just tag the redirects for now, and reapply in a few months.

I already have experience with reverting bad edits and would like to help further, rejecting obvious vandalism, contributing to the encyclopedia, and keeping the backlog at its minimum. BytEfLUSh Talk 08:47, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

User:Codename Lisa

Hello. :) I am the second top editor of Windows 10 article with 287 edits. This article is permanently PC-protected, so having the reviewer right helps me a lot there. But... I'll be honest: I don't need this user right for anywhere else in Wikipedia. Of course, I fit the bill for all 6 criteria and needing the permission for more than one article was not one of them. Still, no hard feelings if I don't receive it. Codename Lisa (talk) 12:17, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

This is a verified alt-account for Seraphim System - I already have pending changes permission on the main account - I may as well keep an eye on pending changes while doing other maintenance things with this account.

User:MattLongCT

So I may better contribute to articles on Wikipedia. I have read Wikipedia's policy on Vandalism. I understand what does and does not constitute vandalism, and I am ready to put that knowledge into practice. I am familiar with Wikipedia's other content policies with a track record of demonstrating that knowledge. I understand when I should come forward to help, and I know where to ask for it. Finally, my first act as a Pending Change Review is to update The Greatest Showman. Thank you. ―Matthew J. Long -Talk-☖ 05:37, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

@MattLongCT: I don't think three months of editing (w/ 400 total edits) is enough to show a reasonable track record, though it's getting there. TonyBallioni, what do you think? Anarchyte (work | talk) 05:42, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
Anarchyte, I'm pretty generous when it comes to pending changes reviewer: pending changes is supposed to be less restrictive than semi-protection, and as it stands Matt could accept an edit request on a talk page and implement it. He seems to have a basic understanding of Wikipedia policy, and is making comments in project space areas such as AfD that to me suggests he is here to build an encyclopedia and has read enough about what we do that he can be trusted with this. I'd be comfortable granting, but I'll leave it up to you. As an unrelated aside, I pinged Ad and Drmies on my talk about a question surrounding what counts as a revert. You might have good thoughts on it as well TonyBallioni (talk) 05:52, 3 January 2018 (UTC)
Anarchyte, I will respect your decision either way.―Matthew J. Long -Talk-☖ 06:11, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

Doing some cleanup work, it would be great to have this ability. List of cryptocurrencies is most annoying me right now, as it is clearly a good edit. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 19:29, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

User:Felida97

I am a pending changes reviewer (since September) and come across vandalism quite frequently (and occasionally identify serial vandalism when I look at user contributions during the reviewing process). As such, I learned to distinguish between unconstructive vandalism and edits that shouldn't be reverted using standard rollback, so I now feel confident enough in that regard to request this user right. (I have tested this feature using Twinkle.) Felida97 (talk) 00:47, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

Not done When you apply for three user rights at the same time, including one you already have, it strongly suggests you aren’t really familiar with what those rights do and what is expected of users who apply for them Beeblebrox (talk) 22:07, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

I watch over historical articles and remove unsourced content(which sometimes is vandalism). I have been a wikipedia since a year and am an extended confirmed users. I also use twinkle for this.
