REQUEST EDIT! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Powerrangers1 ( talk • contribs) 12:00, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
Once all the corresponding template work is completed, I would like to suggest we remove all the small text and just replace it with "You can find instructions on how to submit or review a {{edit COI}} at Wikipedia: Requested edits. The link goes to a place with similar (but more thorough) text. User:Corporate Minion 07:33, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi,
I suggest that instead of "does not want to make because of a conflict of interest" it would be clearer if the wording was "does not want to make because of a potential conflict of interest".

I suggest the 'Go ahead' option of this template be removed, or be updated to be more in line with the WP:COI guideline. A very long-winded example, but a starting point for discussion:

This template needs a level 2 heading, something like "COI edit request". That way: a) the section shows up in the Contents, b) it can be easily linked to, and c) visually no longer merges with the section above it. -- 82.136.210.153 ( talk) 17:58, 15 October 2014 (UTC)

It's unclear what parameter to use in response to an edit request if the requested changes were already applied by someone else - in some cases months ago. A or D|T can be used, but an new, additional D|<letter> parameter would be useful. -- 82.136.210.153 ( talk) 17:24, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
I think that the name is rather unclear, as any newb IP could use this purely because of the name. I think that a name like {{ COI request edit}} or something would be more appropriate. Pie is good (Apple is the best) 01:05, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
I want to edit this page because I know the release dates of the books. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jesstron21 ( talk • contribs) 16:40, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Would it be possible please to amend this according to the changes I tried to affect yesterday using the name "CorkStreetGallery"? It was an honest mistake to use this name. I thought of it because it's a) Wikipedia couldn't recognise the name we used previously (and no one of my colleagues could remember the passowrd in any case) and b) because CorkStreetGallery was in line with a dozen other in-house user name/passwords the company shares.
We need the page changed you see, because it no longer reflects the company's current status. Since the street is now being redeveloped, it's very important that visitors to our page do not have the impression that we were "pushed out".
Also, no such person as Johnnie Messum works here. His name is Johnathan Messum and he is not the head of the company. That is still David Messum, founder and still chairman.
Finally, the list of artists exhibited needed to be augmented, as many of these artists have wikipedia pages, and several are represented solely by Messum's, who represent certain estates and maintain copyright.
Could you help me do this please?
Thank you.

Michael Vincent Drake (born July 9, 1951)[1] is an American university administrator and physician. In 2014, he became the current president of The Ohio State University. From 2005 to 2014, he was the chancellor of the University of California, Irvine. During his tenure, UC Irvine was named one of Sierra magazine's "top ten coolest schools" for its sustainability efforts [1] and recognized for increasing minority enrollment. [2] While UC Irvine chancellor, Drake fired and rehired legal scholar Erwin Chemerinsky as dean of the then-new UC Irvine school of law. At Ohio State, Drake has been criticized for firing band director Jon Waters after a report criticized the band's "sexualized culture." Deborah Athy Guinan ( talk) 17:11, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

. I have implemented similar functionality in
Template:Request edit/sandbox/request. Does anyone think that this would be a bad idea to implement in the main template? As is, a well-meaning COI editor who uses {{

16:22, 9 August 2016 (UTC)This template doesn't appear to have an option to withdraw a request. Seems like it should. Seems like someone aught to make this available. Does't seem like it should be that difficult. Would do it myself but would probably get yelled at so will refrain. Please create an option to withdraw an edit request. Thanks. KDS4444 ( talk) 13:32, 10 November 2017 (UTC)
While I am at it, it might also be a good idea for this template's documentation to say something to editors placing such requests about the edit request process— like, what to do if you don't get the response you were expecting, what alternatives you have if your edit request is denied or isn't handled appropriately, etc. It is good that we have instructions for those answering such request, but given that those placing it are apparently at least superficially familiar with templates, it might be a good idea to fill things in from their perspective as well, no?

Currently this template allows: Declined parameters
{{edit COI|D|ADV}} for declining promotional content. {{edit COI|D|V}} for declining content not properly sourced. {{edit COI|D|O}} for articles with obvious omissions that need balance. {{edit COI|D|R}} when changes ask to remove sourced content. {{edit COI|D|D}} to request the editor attempt to discuss with involved editors first. {{edit COI|D|S}} for requests that are not specific enough. {{edit COI|D|T}} for requests that aren't an improvement. {{edit COI|D|C}} this issue has been discussed and no clear consensus was reached.
I think it could be nice to also have:
{{edit COI|D|CA}} this issue has been discussed and a clear consensus against was reached.
with an optional:
{{edit COI|D|CA|Example talk:The subject#Discussion}} this issue [[Example talk:The subject#Discussion|has been discussed]] and a clear consensus against was reached.

Recently, a change was made to Salvidrim!'s Dashboard. The result of this change is that their dashboard now appears in this list at the very bottom under "Pages included". The appearance in that list has increased the number of EDIT Req's that display in the COI edit req template, so that it now reads 1 pending request more than it should. The template draws from that list, what number to display. Before Salvidrim!'s change to their Dashboard, the number had been perpetually stuck at 3 pending. As you can see from the list, in addition to Salvidrim! there are 3 other templates. With the pending edit request backlog at around 100+ just a few weeks ago, these rogue templates were easily hidden, and it was impossible to notice that the count was off. But now that the list is down to zero, these stand out. This is something I've been trying to figure out how to fix. I was hoping someone might have some input on the matter so that the correct number of pending requests may display once again in the request template.

Hi, while processing various edit requests I've run in to another group of edits that need review and processing and would like to expand Template:Request edit and Category:Requested edits to include them: edits requested by restricted editors (to unprotected pages). I think we should just expand the definition of Category:Requested edits to include any other reason that an edit may not be made (not ONLY COI) by an editor (as opposed to the cases where the edit "can not" be made due to protection).

I am submitting the following changes to ensure the article is accurate. The information that I am submitting can be verified by any independent person. Here is how the article must appear to ensure its accuracy:
Manhattan Village Academy was founded in 1993 by Mary Butz, a 25-year veteran of the New York City Board of Education. Butz was invited to establish this new small public high school by famed educator Deborah Meier, who worked closely with Ted Sizer and the Center for Collaborative Education. After selecting the site in a commercial loft building in the Chelsea district of Manhattan, Butz persuaded nationally known architect Beverly Willis to collaborate with her to design the space for the school. Butz recruited the students and faculty and shaped the culture of the school around the ideas of "reason, respect, and responsibility." The motto of the school from its inception was "a good school dedicated to the liberal arts." In the first graduating class, every student went on to attend college. The school was recognized by Chancellor Rudy Crew as one of the best high schools in the city and was regularly ranked among the city’s best public schools under Butz’s leadership. She maintained policies of open enrollment, project-based assessment, and close attention to punctuality and student deportment. When she left the school in 1999, she selected Hector Geager to succeed her. He introduced a series of innovative educational approaches; such as 7 Critical Thinking Authentic Performance Based Portfolios, 26 Critical Thinking Units--one per teacher twice a year, Success Units, Curriculum Mapping, High Performance Teams, School Uniform, an Internal Accountability System, a Critical Thinking Summer Academy, PM School and Saturday Academy and an open Advanced Placement Program with over 17 AP Courses, among other educational changes (See the School's Comprehensive Educational Plan--CEP--from 1999 to 2019). Mr. Geager continued the progressive work that Ms. Mary Butz began based on her philosophy of reason, respect and responsibility. Under his leadership, punctuality and attendance were expected, as part of the school philosophy. Admissions also became selective due to the thousands of parents and students that wanted to enroll in the school (See the high school student applications breakdown for the school and check with the Office of High School Admission). Since 2004, Manhattan Village Academy became one of the top schools in New York City, and every year was recognized by US News and World Report among the top schools in the city and the nation for minority students (See US News & World Report's School Ranking starting in 2004 and the State Department of Education school designation and recognition for closing the achievement gap). By 2018, it had reached a 100% graduation rate, a 98% college readiness index and a student attendance rate of 97%. From 2014 to the present, Manhattan Village Academy became the school with the highest impact and performance in New York City (See the DOE Dashboard). Mr. Geager retired in February 2020 due to a medical condition. In September of 2019, Christina White became interim principal of the school and was appointed principal of the school on March 11th, 2020. Hgeager ( talk) 07:57, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

09:46, 4 August 2020 (UTC)I've noticed a lot of editors create malformed edit requests, either in wording, technical format, or both (see above). Because of that, I created an edit request wizard. Do other editors think it would be useful to link to it on the template documentation to encourage new editors to use it instead of directly using the template so there is less of a chance they mess up? Sam-2727 ( talk) 00:59, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
Why does this template have the generic name "request edit", when its wording actually amounts to "request edit but the requester has a conflict of interest"? That makes no sense. The "how to use" instructions here don't even mention or deal with the COI assertion which is part of the template. IMO this generic name should apply to a generic request - basically usable as a synonym for {{Edit semi-protected}} or equivalent. There was recently a user who included this template, {{edit COI}}, as part of their own talk page edit request, causing considerable puzzlement as to just who had accused the person of COI. We replaced it with the "Edit semi-protected" template which was clearly what the user intended. I doubt if this is the first time that someone has been confused by this title. Can we create a separate template for "requested edit by a COI user," if one is needed, and let this template's wording simply say the equivalent of "this is a requested edit"? -- MelanieN ( talk) 18:58, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
Wugapodes, Your changes in the template are a very good start to the implementation of my suggestions. I had not thought it would be possible to do it this simply. Congratulations! DGG ( talk ) 22:49, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
The current increments of the {{ Request edit/backlog}} indicator go up in increments of between 6–9 with level 1 being "36 or more" requests. With there being at over 210 currently, there is little point having an indicator which is almost guaranteed to be at level 1. I suggest that the increments be changed to 50's with level 5 being "50 or less", and level 1 being "250 or more". therefore changes in the e shown in the indicator.

Change the number of edit request thresholds for protected edits so that the backlog counter is not guaranteed to always be at a level 1.
This change will have limited impact since it will only change the text in the request and the backlog bar from "very high" to "high" at the moment. The change will bring the thresholds more in line with the original limits before they were changed in April 2020. Terasail [✉] 20:22, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

I noted that every option in the Request Options and Response Options sections have {{ tl}} links that allows a reader to immediately see what that usage will look like. However, no option in the (Partly) declined parameter section offers this very handy and convenient help.
Do you - like me - see value in adding links in this section to immediately see the wording of each option? I'm thinking they could lead to a copy of Template:Request_edit/doc at Template:Request edit/declined/doc where, using option |V
as my example, instead of something like the current passage for {{edit COI|[P or D]|V}}:
{{request edit|P|V}}
{{request edit|D|V}}
for declining content not properly sourced
...you'd instead see how it actually looks like:
{{
edit COI|D|V}}
→
![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works. |
(This expansion demo template outputs not only the example but also the code that produces it. I'm sure there is one that outputs ONLY the example, which is what I want here. I would like to ask you to see past this snag. Thank you)
---
So to repeat, my idea is for Template:Request_edit/doc to link directly to anchors in Template:Request edit/declined/doc in this way
In Template:Request_edit/doc you'd have this (for our example with the |V
parameter) - note how the usage has become clickable (you must hover above the line to see the link):
{{request edit | P | V}}
{{request edit | D | V}}
for declining content not properly sourced
and the link would lead to the result of using this combination (in Template:Request edit/declined/doc):
{{
edit COI|D|V}}
→
![]() | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works. |
(Again please ignore the code that produces the example.)
I can copy Template:Request_edit/doc into Template:Request edit/declined/doc. I can create the links in the former, and have them point to anchors in the latter. What I need help with is:
