Pending changes reviewer

Vandalism is quite prevalent on Zimbabwe related articles, so I think this permission is useful for me to fight vandalism and edits that aren’t constructive. Thank you for your consideration. Mindthem (talk) 03:32, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Mindthem I haven't evaluated your request yet but it doesn't give me any sense that you've read and understood what pending changes is. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 20:04, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I routinely edit. I have an account and I have a reasonable editing history – as a guide, enough edits that a track record can be established. I have read the policy on vandalism and understand what is vandalism and what is not. I have read the guideline on reviewing. I strongly agree I am familiar with the basic content policies: Biographies of living persons, Neutral point of view, No original research, Verifiability and What Wikipedia is not. This is why I should be granted reviewer rights. MrFlyingPies23 (Talk?) | (Contrib) 22:42, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have been doing constructive activities in Wikipedia for more than a couple of years regularly. I have read Wikipedia:Reviewing pending changes#Becoming a reviewer and I believe that I am eligible for this right to help other wikipedians. Haoreima (talk) 07:32, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to help in reviewing, I have experience in RC patrolling and can discern what edits should be accepted. Cjse23 (talk) 17:06, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have been editing for quite a while, especially in the area of fishing and regional contents (southeast Asia, China and Russia), so I am very familiar with dealing with such tricky contents involving biographies, those containing long uncited original research and controversial copyrights. I have also read what is vandalism and other basic content policies and guidelines for reviewing and I am willing to help with reviewing pending changes so as to make the community better.

I routinely edit about 50 times a day, I have experience in Recent changes patrolling and know which edits should be reverted. I have read the policies and guidelines for pending changes reviewing. The pending changes reviewer tool will be constructive to my contributions to Wikipedia. yvanyblog(talk) 04:20, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I periodically check the pending changes and see that some edits are straightforward attempted vandalism, few should be rightly accepted, and others need modification to the wording or reference before publishing, but I obviously couldn't act by default. I always refer to reliable sources and do my own fact-checking. I know that this feature could be easily revoked and edits I approve could be reverted by admins, so I'm not intending to misuse it; I would just like to be able to help in that. Thank you.

I have a good track record of vandalism reversion, and I understand what are acceptable and unacceptable edits are as per policy. -REDACTED403 (talk) 14:09, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please remove my WP:PCR userright. I haven't used it in a while and do not see myself using it in the near future. Sohom (talk) 17:01, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Already done (automated response): This user already has the "reviewer" user right. MusikBot talk 17:10, 19 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry to interfere, but I think you meant WP:RPC? PlanckEpoch (talk) 06:06, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I did mean WP:RPC (I assumed WP:PCR would redirect to the pending changes reviewer userright, but apparently not) :) Sohom (talk) 14:25, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights I am actively editing Wikipedia and I can do a lot better if I get extended rights. Kingaayaan (talk) 12:48, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
