Current requests for reduction in protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.

• To find out the username of the admin who protected the page click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page" which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
• Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
• Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
• If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page please add {{ Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected please use the section below.

Queen Mary 2

• Queen Mary 2 ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Reason: Semi-protection no longer needed as Wikipedia:General sanctions/COVID-19 editing restrictions lifted. 49.150.14.10 ( talk) 06:01, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

@ El C: as protecting admin. Lectonar ( talk) 06:48, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

It should be noted that any sanctions in place at the time WP:ARBCOVID was passed were automatically converted into discretionary sanctions. That doesn't invalidate this request, however; "legacy" sanctions, to my knowledge, weren't grandfathered in when DS became CTOPs and this falls well outside the one-year enforcement privilege. — Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{threads critiques} 15:31, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page

Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.

• Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{ Edit protected}}, {{ Edit template-protected}}, {{ Edit extended-protected}}, or {{ Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
• Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{ Edit COI}} template should be used.
• Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
• If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
• This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

This user right will be super useful to me for moving unsuitable articles to draft space (eliminating the need to tag the resulting redirect with R2), dealing with articles created by new users in the wrong namespace (that I come across a lot as a vandalism patroller), and performing a round-robin move on two pages (that I try to fix occasionally when an editor copy-pastes an article). I've familiarized myself with the guidelines for moving and the article title policy. Ae245 ( talk) 08:05, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

(Non-admin comment) @ Ae245: If you use User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft, it will automatically tag the redirect for deletion, along with other things like notifying the creator of the article per WP:DRAFTIFY and warning you when the article was last edited in the past hour, such that it shouldn't be draftified yet per WP:NPPHOUR/ WP:DRAFTNO.

Hello! I'm S-Aura. I've been editing Wikipedia for a few years. I've added new articles and learned how Wikipedia works. I'm good at finding mistakes and fixing them.

Now, I want to help review edits to make sure the information on Wikipedia is correct and reliable. I think it's important for people to have access to accurate information, and I want to help make that happen.

Thankyou! 𝒮- 𝒜𝓊𝓇𝒶 19:24, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

I've been editing on Wikipedia consistently for almost a year, focusing on fighting vandalism, fixing citations, and archival. I believe that having this permission could aid in the approval of constructive pending changes that I often come across while fighting vandalism. I have made roughly 1500 edits, and have earned the rollback permission. — Your local Sink Cat ( The Sink). 23:22, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi there! Requesting rollback rights to be able to use different tools for reverting vandalism. I'm open to any questions or feedback on my editing and counter-vandalism actions. Cheers. Rkieferbaum ( talk) 11:34, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits. Why? It's important to leave a notification for every revert you make. Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? - Fastily 06:21, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

@ Fastily: hi there. It's true that I seldom warn IP users that don't edit on a regular basis. I just feel like no one is going to see that warning and it might be confusing for other users from that IP. This might be a mistake on my part and I'll gladly fix it. You'll see that, with registered users, I've warned them 100% of the time or very close to that. Thanks for your time. Rkieferbaum ( talk) 10:59, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

I am heavily involved with editing route diagram templates and adding new items to template:rail-interchange, with a special focus on rail lines in France for the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris starting later this month. I have made multiple edit requests there in the past, and very recently after refamiliarizing myself with the process, I've started to do it again. I would like the ability to edit that template directly so I don't have to rely on others to do it for me. Jackdude101  ^{talk  cont} 07:46, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
