Hi, I am re-requesting AWB perms. It was last denied because I had shown zero need for it but this time, I think I do have a reason.

I had recently created Niagara (electoral district) and Middlesex North from a (redirect) to a Disambiguation page, and it has links. I would like to use AWB to update the links, and make it point to the right pages. I'm thinking there could be more "redirect-to-disambigaution" pages that would need updating links.

Reason for Request: I am requesting reinstatement of Extended Confirmed Rights after their removal by User:ScottishFinnishRadish for concerns related to "gaming EC through adding a machine translation of Fondation Maeght and Rueil-Malmaison in many small edits without attribution." He asked me to "make at least a few hundred edits" to regain it. I understand the importance of maintaining trust and adhering to Wikipedia’s policies, and I’ve since reflected on how to better contribute responsibly.

Since the removal, I have added attribution to the concerned articles. I have made over 300 referenced contributions, focusing on adding reliable sources to improve verifiability, expanding content in alignment with Wikipedia’s standards, and enhancing article quality.

I believe my recent contributions demonstrate constructive and policy-compliant editing.

Vulcan would like to be able to rename files and to help others in doing so. Already have similar role in Commons. Vulcan❯❯❯Sphere! 04:21, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

 Comment: I just declined ~15 of the requests made by the requestor because they do not meet our local requirements to be eligible for renaming. Among the worst offenders were File:Snowfall.gif and File:New Scientist.jpg; neither are completely meaningless, thus they do clearly do not meet WP:FNC#2. I imagine our criteria differs from commons, as I am unfamiliar with their system there. I would recommend that the candidate be asked to take some more time and demonstrate a better understanding of local file renaming procedure before granting a request here. — Godsy ^(TALK_CONT) 20:15, 12 December 2024 (UTC)

Oppose as Godsy says, and given the note that I left them on the talk-page. I'd advise them to gain more experience in the area, and contribute elsewhere?

Hi! I'd love to help out with the backlog. I have around ~40 AfD !votes, and I'm usually one of the first votes and always use strong guideline-backed reasoning. I've only had 1 AfD in the "red" cell of AfD Stats, that was a bio of a person from a non-English speaking country, and I tried to find sources in my WP:BEFORE, but nothing come up, and then another user more familiar with that country was able to dig something up so I withdrew (I don't think it should count as a black mark against me). I've also reviewed a lot of AfC submissions (a good amount of them sadly don't show in the AfC tool as they were later deleted, but there's still a decent chunk in there), and I almost always provide personalized advice backed with good reasoning when declining. You can find my CSD log here (n. 10, 100% success): User:MolecularPilot/CSD_Log, and I've also created 5 articles (see my user page), 4 of which are B class. Thanks for your time! :) MolecularPilot ^{🧪️✈️} 05:30, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Adding that I'm also very experienced in cleaning formatting, copy editing, wiki linking etc. as I often do that before accepting AfC submissions, and for evidence of criteria #3 about being kind to new users, I think I've helped a good amount of users understand policies/guidelines/reasons for AfC declines etc, a small subset of these can by verified on my user talk page and I'm also very active on the help IRC (admittedly less during the last week due to a personal event). I'm also knowledgable about copyvios, having cleaned a decent amount, informing users about our policy, answering any questions they sent to me and requesting revdel. I've also reviewed around 20 cases on CopyPatrol. Thanks again for your time :) MolecularPilot ^{🧪️✈️} 05:32, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

 Done. I'll note that your AfD record is in the "so good it's suspicious" range and I was very pleased to see the well-thought out rationales and participation behind the !votes, with little to no votestacking involved. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 17:56, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

I'm short of 3,000 edits requirement (currently at 2,400). I request page-moving rights as I'm encountering problems when reviewing new pages. Specifically, I face issues leaving redirects to (bad) pages I move to the draft space. Page-moving rights would help prevent redirects from being flagged for speedy deletion.

@Anuwrites: If you use the MoveToDraft script, it will automatically tag the move redirect for deletion, at which point it takes little work for an admin to check and delete the redirect (with no additional work for you). The script will also show a warning if you try draftifying an article within an hour of its last edit despite WP:NPPHOUR, as happened in this move yesterday. And it will leave a notification on the talk page of the article's creator, which you should be doing as explained at WP:DRAFTNOTIFY. Based on that, there isn't sufficient cause to make an exception to the guidelines for granting, plus your draftifications could still do with checking.  Not done.

Hello! I had been actively patrolling RC in 2023 but paused for a long time since I was too busy. I plan to resume soon and would like rollback rights to make it easier. However, I mostly edit on my school computer so I am unable to use any tools such as Huggle, RedWarn, etc. Thank you for considering my request.

Note from 07:07, 6 December 2024 (UTC): I had just been informed that RedWarn can be used on a school computer, so it's very likely that I will be using it. xRozuRozu • ^tea_cups 23:57, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

I have been reverting vandalism since I created my account. Although it appears I am a new user, I also have experience editing Wikipedia and reverting vandalism as an IP for many years (which I will not be disclosing due to security concerns). The rollback right will help me revert vandalism faster, which is why I am requesting it. PersonAccount 🐉 (talk) 20:08, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

PersonAccount, to be honest, no, it doesn't appear you are a new user. Which is okay if all previous activity was without having an account and without disruption. It will take longer than for other users until the trust for manually granting permissions is there in your case. It isn't yet, to me. Unless someone else grants rollback in the next week or so, I'll decline this with a recommendation not to ask for permissions until your account is a year old. Regarding rollback in particular, Twinkle and Ultraviolet will do just fine. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 02:11, 15 December 2024 (UTC)

I am finally starting to have a WP:CLUE, though I still deserve a good whack to the face with some WP:TROUT more often than I would like. While redwarn/UV is nice, it is not very fast to load diffs in the browser the way that I do at the moment (it is surprisingly resource intensive), and I think Huggle would help quite a bit along with reducing mistakes made as diffs would be clearer with less lag and more efficient resource usage. I have made mistakes, and will continue to make mistakes, but I find myself leaving more and more diffs untouched now that I realize more often when I don't have a WP:CLUE. Any advice is welcome, and advice on if I should still be using RedWarn or if there is some reason I should switch to UV would be welcome as well.  ${\displaystyle Jayhawker6}$【💬】 04:16, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
