Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series[edit]

Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Vandalism over at least one month. Air on White (talk) 04:02, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Question: @Air on White: Which specific edits are vandalism and why? (Other administrators, please feel free to handle this request after a response or if you believe you have enough information already.) Daniel Quinlan (talk) 04:11, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
Most recent edits add content that does not improve the article while introducing MoS vios that they refuse to discuss even after being reverted. Meanwhile, [3] is an unsourced change. These editors have engaged in disruptive editing and several have been blocked. Air on White (talk) 04:27, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 week, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. The one edit you've linked is from May 9th. I'm going to protect the article because there's IP block evasion from a blocked editor, but this would be a declined request otherwise. Daniel Quinlan (talk) 04:56, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Mike Rinder[edit]

Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – The one-month and two-month PP protected from IP vandalism, but each time it started back up again one week after the protection ended. It is the same specific vandalism each time and is being driven by a popular youtuber who is a self-described enemy of the BLP subject.   ▶ I am Grorp ◀ 05:22, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

Fortune Global 500[edit]

Hello everyone. I kindly ask you if it is possible to make a specific section of the "Fortune Global 500" page non-editable and specifically "Breakdown by country/territory". I kindly ask you to read the talk page of the page. In the last month there have been continuous attempts at editing CONTRARY to the fundamental principles of Wikipedia.

Specifically, the SOURCE cited "Global 500". Fortunes. Retrieved October 23, 2023" EXPLICITLY indicates that, for 2023, the United States is first with 136 companies and China is second with 135 companies.

Some editors continue to change the figure to indicate that China has 142 companies. In fact, they add 7 Taiwanese companies to the 135 companies in China.

However, this is contrary to what is reported in the SOURCE and allows a POLITICALLY MOTIVATED SUBJECTIVE POINT OF VIEW to prevail.

Taiwan is considered a territory and therefore its companies should not be added to those of China.

I therefore ask you to leave the data for 136 companies for the United States and 135 for China unchanged and ineditable.

This request is driven only by technical considerations, relating to RESPECT for the principles of Wikipedia and not political ones. In fact, Taiwan is not a de jure country.

Thank you. Chrisques5 (talk) 23:17, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

@Chrisques5: Protection is page-level and cannot be done for specific sections. Even if this were possible, you requested this on the page for requesting edits for the page. You want to request protection at WP:RFPP/I. —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 23:20, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Miss Arizona USA[edit]

Hello! I am hoping someone is able to assist me in updated the 2024 Miss Arizona USA's name on the winners list. Her legal name is actually just the letter K, however someone posted Kristina which is incorrect. If you refer to the Miss Arizona USA's social media pages you can see they also have her name listed as just the letter K.

If you need any communications from Miss Arizona USA herself, please let me know.

User:Prince of Erebor[edit]

I have created 80 articles, primarily focused on Sinophone cinema and fantasy literature, with 2 currently undergoing GAN. All of my articles have been promptly reviewed, and none of them have been deleted or marked for maintenance. I am requesting autopatrolled rights to alleviate the workload of the patrollers, especially those who actively review film articles and have reviewed the majority of my articles, allowing them to allocate more time to address articles that truly require attention. As a side note, I am a veteran editor with patroller rights on Chinese Wikipedia, having authored over 200 articles, including a dozen featured and good articles. While I fully understand that there are differences in policies and MOS across different Wikipedias, I believe this demonstrates my credibility and knowledge in assessing article quality.— Prince of Erebor（The Book of Mazarbul） 13:18, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

User:SheriffIsInTown[edit]

I frequently create articles on notable subjects, having authored 530 articles, with the majority facing no issues. Only three were deleted, mainly due to changes in election results affecting their notability. I'm requesting autopatroller rights to ease the burden on other editors reviewing my articles and help reduce the backlog of new article reviews. Sheriff | ☎ 911 | 23:36, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Sanslogique[edit]

Hello. I would like to request Autopatrolled rights on the advice of user Broc, who appreciated my editorial skills. I have created more than 140 articles, mostly music-related. (I also have these rights in Russian Wikipedia.) Sanslogique (talk) 14:17, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

I stumbled across Sanslogique's music-related articles more than once as part of NPP, and found them of high quality. They show understanding of WP:NMUSIC, their pages are well written and sourced, and I did not see any copyright problems, that's why I suggested them to apply for autopatrolled rights.

Good morning, as I explained on the Maria Medina Coeli talk page, the name is wrong.

User:HirowoWiki[edit]

I've been active at recent changes for more than 3 months to help revert vandalism and report AIV, which is successful. Rollback rights need access to a counter-vandalism tool. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 01:21, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

A few concerns:
  1. A couple of days ago, you were warned about misleading edits summaries wrt this edit. Please explain, in your own words, why this edit was inappropriate.
  2. I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy?
-Fastily 21:31, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
I forgot to leave a warning message. Also, I made a misleading edit summary and not a typo. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 21:47, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Moving forward, what will you do ensure that you are always leaving a notification? Right after your last reply, I noticed that you failed to notify an editor after making a this revert. What exactly do you mean by "made a misleading edit summary and not a typo"? Like I said, both the contents of the edit and edit summary are inappropriate. Can you explain why? -Fastily 06:16, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
I've undid the last edit; they should leave a warning message. I changed the template with uppercase letters like {{pp|small=yes}} → {{Pp|small=yes}} and {{featured article}} → {{Featured article}}. The template shouldn't be changed in this article. Thank you for the explanation. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 07:47, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Why are you being so evasive with your answers? I'm not asking you trick questions or attempting to embarrass you. Please re-read my reply above and answer the questions please. -Fastily 05:46, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
I will ensure to leave a warning message after reverting your edit. The misleading edit summary referred to providing incorrect information in the summary, which did not accurately reflect the changes made in the edit. This can be misleading to other editors who check the edit history. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 08:04, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
Please ensure that you are always leaving warnings. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor; I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? And it sounds like you're not familiar with WP:COSMETIC changes, which capitalizing template translcusions falls under. The community frowns upon such edits, so please also acknowledge below that you won't be making such edits in the future. -Fastily 09:36, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
Leave warnings for edits, use tools like Twinkle or Ultraviolet for easy notifications. Avoid biting newcomers and explain reverts with talk page messages. Refrain from WP:COSMETIC changes like capitalizing template transclusions. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 11:21, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
Right, those are things that I'd like you to do moving forward. Can you please state clearly that you, HirowoWiki, will be doing these things? -Fastily 02:10, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Yes, I will be doing these. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 02:27, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Great, thanks for confirming,  Done -Fastily 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Air on White[edit]

I have been active on RCP over the past month. I would like rollback for the particular case where a vandal persistently vandalizes the same page. It takes time to load via Twinkle and is frustrating when my attempt to revert fails because the vandal or someone else has made more edits. I believe rollback will save me time and make my efforts against vandalism more effective. Air on White (talk) 03:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 05:46, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
I do not warn users in what I assume to be legitimate content disputes, as warning would be patronizing and unconducive to discussion. The user who added the name of one of Pat Morita's grandchildren appeared to be acting in good faith; I reverted not because he was vandalizing or disruptive, but because the person did not have his own Wikipedia article. The argument here is not about vandalism, NPOV or BLP, but simply a content dispute about what is proper to include in the infobox. Meanwhile, in the case of Matthew Heineman, that was the third edit by a user who added BLP violations who was hopping to a different IP for every edit. It is useless to warn such a user, who I had already warned twice on two different IPs, just as it is useless to further warn a user who has received a level 4 warning and is still vandalizing. My failure to warn the vandal on The Chris Moyles Show was a mistake on my part, possibly because I forgot after I restored the page to remove vandalism by multiple IPs. I hope this helps you understand my editing process. Air on White (talk) 06:28, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
If you take a look at my contributions, it will be beyond obvious that I am aware of Twinkle and am regularly using it to warn users. Air on White (talk) 06:32, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
It doesn't matter whether it's "a dispute" or a good faith edit: you need to leave a notification. I can't stress enough the importance of not biting the newcomers; if you find yourself reverting good faith edits, then it's especially important to notify the editor; I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy. If you don't want to leave a template warning, that's completely fine, but you do need to leave a talk page message explaining why you reverted the edit. Moving forward, could you please make a promise to leave warnings/notifications for every revert? -Fastily 09:36, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

User:RodRabelo7[edit]

Hello,

Roughly a month ago, I requested to be granted rollback rights. The administrator who responded, Fastily, asked me to patrol recent changes for a month before requesting the permission again. Having done so, I believe I am now ready to become a rollbacker. As mentioned in my previous request, I've been a rollbacker on Commons for quite some time now – over a year –, understanding how the tool works and the risks associated with it, and committing myself not to misuse it, under the risk of losing it temporarily or permanently, and even being blocked.

Having patrolled recent changes for this month, with over 700 reversions in the main domain, I'm now more confident than ever in distinguishing between obvious vandalism, non-constructive changes, and good-faith edits, for example. I always make sure to notify editors after reverting their edits, so that these newcomers are not "bitten" (e.g. 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5a, 5b). Sometimes I even notify and guide them without reverting their edits; that's why I currently have a bit more warnings on user pages than reversions in the main domain.

I also have a constant presence in Administrator intervention against vandalism, with a considerably high success rate (that is, the ratio between blocked accounts and reports). Of the more than 20 accounts I reported there (ignoring the IPs), only one was not blocked, for reasons I now understand well, so these will not be repeated. I have even opened a checkuser request as a result of my anti-vandalism activities (although this request was deleted in favor of one created later, I don't know precisely why).

Therefore, I would like to finally become a rollbacker. As mentioned before, I would like to have access to semi-automatic tools, namely Huggle, which would greatly facilitate my anti-vandalism work, making it more efficient. I enjoy patrolling recent changes, and rollback rights would certainly make my life easier.

Thanks, RodRabelo7 (talk) 09:16, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

I noticed that you're indef blocked at your home wiki (ptwiki). Could you comment on that please? -Fastily 09:36, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
Fastily,
Yes, unfortunately it is true that I am currently blocked on my home wiki. I was blocked there due to an administrative decision. At the time, there was suspicion that I was a sockpuppet of some long-term abuser. I was associated, among others, with someone named Quintinense. There was a certain wikihounding surrounding my edits, which I perceived as harassment and tried to respond accordingly. This eventually led to a discussion where the majority of participating administrators supported the block. Needless to say, I have nothing to do with this account I was associated with, which has even harassed me here on this project (Quintinense → Pórokhov → Ertrinken: harassment here, here, and probably here, to mention just a few).
Trying to be succinct so that you, unfamiliar with the specific Wikipedia in question, can understand the issue, what I can say is that people change, and today I have a completely different view than I did almost two years ago regarding the dynamics of a collaborative editing environment – a view that is constantly evolving, by the way. I always strive to improve as a person and as a user, and I believe my activities not only here and on Commons, but also on Wiktionary and Wikisource (in Portuguese and French), demonstrate my good faith towards Wikimedia projects.
I am open to further questions if you believe they are necessary to better clarify the issue.
Respectfully, RodRabelo7 (talk) 10:26, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
Thanks for the explanation. If what you say is true, then why haven't you sought to be unblocked at ptwiki? -Fastily 02:10, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Fastily,
In fact, I did seek to be unblocked on ptwiki six months ago. However, 7 administrator votes were against the unblock, and 6 were in favor. The decision is made based on a simple majority, so I was not unblocked at that time. As an example, among the administrators who supported my unblocking were Albertoleoncio (currently a steward and a checkuser; see his comment here), DarwIn (also a Commons administrator; see his comment here), and Skyshifter (active editor here; see their comment here).
Recently, I came across the essay "Unblocks are cheap" here on enwiki. I would say it summarizes my opinion regarding unblocking, which apparently is not shared by some administrators on ptwiki. If I were unblocked there today, I certainly would not persist in the behavior that once led to my block. However, it is difficult, being blocked on ptwiki, to convince the administrators there that I am acting in good faith. It is a catch-22.
For this reason, I try to demonstrate my good faith in other projects. In this process, I confess, I have grown more fond of enwiki than ptwiki, but I still aspire to be unblocked there because my editorial interests (namely Tupi–Guarani languages, especially Old Tupi; e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) are more relevant to the Portuguese-speaking world than to the English-speaking one. Hence, if developed there, they would better reach their target audience.
I hope I have answered your question.
Best regards, RodRabelo7 (talk) 05:21, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Got it, thanks for the explanation. Aside from the block at ptwiki, your contributions at enwp look good. For what it's worth, I'm all for second chances, so keep up the good work.  Done -Fastily 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Myrealnamm[edit]

Hi there,

I am requesting rollback rights so I can revert vandalism faster. I've been using Twinkle and reverting vandalism for more than a month now and I finally feel like it's the time. Around last month I've requested Rollback rights but it got declined because I had limited experience in reverting vandalism. I now have over 200 mainspace edits, reverting for more than a month now, and only this that might count as edit warring. Having rollback rights would give me access to tools such as AntiVandal which will help me revert vandalism easier. Myrealnamm (💬talk · ✏️contribs) 21:27, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

Oh, and yes, constantly warning users about their edits (unless they've vandalized past their fourth or 4im warning, and then I'll go to AIV). Myrealnamm (💬talk · ✏️contribs) 21:28, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
 Automated comment This user has had 1 request for rollback declined in the past 90 days ([5]). — MusikBot talk 21:46, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
I'm concerned by this complaint on your talk page. Do you still think the edit referenced here should have been reverted? Please explain your reasoning. -Fastily 02:10, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Oh. I'll explain that:
If I recall, what happened was I didn't see their edit summary and I only saw the edits that were blanking content. So, to answer your question, I shouldn't have reverted those edits because there were reasonable explanations for blanking. That was my mistake. Are there any other problems?
Thanks, Myrealnamm's Alternate Account (talk) 12:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
I didn't see the explanation and that's how it led to this and this. Myrealnamm's Alternate Account (talk) 13:41, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
So help me understand: if you knew you made a mistake, then why did it take 5 days (during which you ignored the IP) and me calling it out here for you to rectify it? -Fastily 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
I didn't, I just realized. Sorry for any confusion that I made. Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 21:06, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
FYI I do have an alternate account that I often use, at User:Myrealnamm-alt. Myrealnamm (💬pros · ✏️cons) 21:09, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Ankermast[edit]

I am a German Wikipedian and have been active on enwiki as vandalism fighter since April, mostly using Twinkle sind SWViewer and always warning editors after reverting their contributions. Currently I have made almost 800 Edits here, which mostly consist of vandalism control. On dewiki I am member of the CVU, have more than 17000 edits as well as rollback rights. [6] I would like to be granted rollback rights as they would allow me fighting vandalism more efficiently and faster. Thanks Ankermast (talk) 08:24, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

I see that you are failing to consistently warn editors when you revert their edits (e.g. 1, 2, 3). Why? Are you aware that we have tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet that make this extremely easy? -Fastily 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Youknowwhoistheman[edit]

Hey, hope you're all doing well. I have created 54 pages so far. And also fighting vandalism by IP and other new users on Resenchanges. But I face problem in using Twinke to undo an article which has been attacked by different IPs. So, one has to face a lot of problems in that. This is why I want rollback rights, thanks with warm regards! Youknowwhoistheman (talk) 09:41, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I reviewed your contributions and found little to no recent anti-vandalism work. If you're still interested in this tool then please spend at least a month actively patrolling RecentChanges (Twinkle & Ultraviolet can help with that) before reapplying. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits. Thanks, Fastily 20:48, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Megabits000[edit]

I am back requesting rollback rights, after a long wikibreak. I use twinkle for sending the warnings, and either the IRC chat or recent changes to monitor for edits that seem to be needed a review. I practiced using huggle to test how it would suit me (without rollback rights, of course), and I think it would make fixing vandalism much easier. if you check, I have a good track record of notifying after an undo-edit, excluding when another editor beats me to the chase. please notify me of any concerns you have, and I will attempt to respond in a timely manner Megabits000 (talk) 03:46, 29 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Sundostund[edit]

Hello. I am re-applying for template editor rights, which I was granted on a temporary basis by Primefac (permalink) on 24 February; it is about to expire at 00:00, on 24 May. As I promised in my original request back in February, and as can be seen, I didn't misuse this right in any way. I used it in a very responsible manner, on a periodical basis, and I'm no longer obliged to bother others with template-protected edit requests, and basically have them to do my work for me when it comes to HRTs. Naturally, I would prefer if this right is extended on a permanent basis, but that is up to admins to decide. — Sundostund mppria (talk / contribs) 13:23, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Sundostund, could you give some examples of say, five template-protected templates that you've worked on since being granted this right? Primefac (talk) 12:57, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
(non-admin comment) These are all of the template-protected templates that Sundostund has edited:
(Checked with {{PROTECTIONLEVEL:edit|title}} on each template/module edited since the grant.) SilverLocust 💬 06:05, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
I don't see anything obviously problematic, but given the discussion last time I would like to get at least one other patrolling admin's eyes on this. Primefac (talk) 11:53, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
 Done seems ok, working within their ability. — xaosflux Talk 22:07, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
