To support WP:JAN25 I'd ideally like to be contributing to reducing the backlog as opposed to contributing to increasing the backlog at the same time. Overall in the last 25+ BLP articles I've created, there have been few to no edits made by NPR, aside from typos, grammar, and duplicate words. The first handful lacked certain templates, categories, default sorting, talk page banners, and the usual technical parts of articles, but I've since got to grips with including these. Since then I've only moved my drafts to mainspace, or created in mainspace, when I'm confident that there is enough SIGCOV and structure, and otherwise "incubate" articles not quite ready in draft space if not. I otherwise create quite a few redirects, with one disambiguated, and one batch up for discussion, but otherwise none deleted so far. Thanks for considering. CNC (talk) 12:40, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights

Hi, I would like to request this right because I have met the criteria for 25 articles that are free of problems. I would like to use it for my interest in WikiProject Korea. You can see all of articles i've created here! :) Aidillia^(talk) 07:08, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) In Buried Hearts, there's a bit of mess with the history, seeing that it was first deleted but later recreated and then expanded, this time, with copyright violations which remained not until GreenLipstickLesbian fixed and requested a revision deletion today. Checking through some other creations revealed some issues like grammar errors. Things like these are what the NPP is for, and English Wikipedia is not ready to keep copyvios on the site, not ever.

It also appears to be that Labor Attorney Noh Moo-jin had copyvio issues, which GLL fixed too. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:04, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Well, I don't know if translating from a website is forbidden, because a few months ago, there was someone who reverted my edit because of no reliable sources for the description I wrote myself. So after that, what was included in the sources I used. Many people I see do that. And now I know I'm trying to remove it as much as possible and do some fixing.

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. Since the removal, I have added attribution to the concerned articles. I have made over 600 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.

Examples of Recent Contributions: Foucault pendulum, Water metering, Smart meter, and Gas meter. My recent edits also contributed significantly to upgrading the article History of the Jews in Tunisia from "Start-Class" to "B-Class." Michael Boutboul (talk) 12:28, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Boutboul, are you using AI (such as ChatGPT or similar tools) to write your talk page messages and permission requests? ~ ToBeFree (talk) 09:03, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi @ToBeFree,

I use ChatGPT from time to time to translate sentences or correct English syntax, as English is not my mother tongue. I also used an LLM to translate French Wikicode into English Wikicode; it’s much faster than doing it manually.

Have you had the opportunity to check some of my edits? They are far from perfect, but I really try to follow Wikipedia standards (Verifiability, No Original Research, Follow Style Guidelines, etc.). I’m genuinely puzzled—I don’t understand why they are not considered valuable enough to regain my extended confirmed rights. I’ve been a Wikipedia member since 2006, with more than 900 edits in English and over 1,500 edits in total.

Thanks for your time and interest. Michael Boutboul (talk) 10:08, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

From their last post to their talk, @Boutboul seems interested in CT areas. I have concerns about the EC request given other issues raised on their Talk. Courtesy ping @ScottishFinnishRadish who removed initially. Star Mississippi 17:39, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

They're also continuing to translate from French Wikipedia without proper attribution, e.g. here. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:51, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

I properly attributed the translation by adding the template to the main page. However, a bot moved it to the talk page. I even explained this in a discussion topic on the talk page. Translation is not prohibited; in fact, it is encouraged by Wikipedia. Michael Boutboul (talk) 20:27, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

(b) Place the {{Translated page}} template on the target article's talk page, for example: emphasis mine. Nor did you attribute it in the edit summary as required: Add a statement to the edit summary of the target article of your translation providing translation attribution to the authors of the source article, including an interlanguage link to the source (translated-from) article. Example: This continued misunderstanding plus the LLM usage does not inspire confidence that they're ready to have E/C restored. They're welcome to edit in other areas but I explicitly do not think they're ready for CTs. Star Mississippi 20:46, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Firstly, I am not sure why you are using the plural for me. I am the only one making all the edits, and my pronoun is 'he'.

Secondly, I have attributed the text to a French translation in several edit summaries, for example, here and here. I may have forgotten some instances. However, if I am not mistaken, there is no rule stating that an editor must make no mistakes when editing to regain Extended Confirmed Rights. Furthermore, the quality of the translation is sufficient, as other editors appreciated it and upgraded the article from Start-Class to B-Class.

In addition, using an LLM for translation, syntax correction, or any other purpose is not forbidden.

It therefore seems that a decision not to reassign the Extended Confirmed rights would be arbitrary. Michael Boutboul (talk) 10:24, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Using third-person gender-neutral pronouns is pretty common and normal online. I have a question for you Michael out of interest. If you acquire the EC privilege, will you use it to advocate on behalf of any of the parties to the Arab-Israeli conflict, thus violating WP:NOTADVOCATE and the part of the Wikimedia Universal Code of Conduct that prohibits "Systematically manipulating content to favour specific interpretations of facts or points of view"? The reason I ask is that using extended confirmed privileges that way is puzzlingly common in the WP:PIA topic area, and I wondered whether you have considered these constraints. Sean.hoyland (talk) 10:36, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

@Sean.hoyland, Thank you for your constructive message. I believe that we all interact, on all sorts of topics, with our biases; we all have biases. I also believe that the beauty of Wikipedia lies in collectively building reliable content, based on discussions grounded in valid sources, despite everyone's individual biases. This is the mindset in which I wish to use my Extended Confirmed Rights. Michael Boutboul (talk) 11:38, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

Is there something preventing you from simply stating that you will not (consciously anyway) advocate on behalf of any of the parties to the Arab-Israeli conflict? Is it an unrealistic expectation given the nature of the topic area? That is what I would have done by the way, provided assurance that I'm not a potential disruption vector in a contentious topic area. And then try to make a case for restoration of EC rights on that basis. Of course, if you did that, you would probably the first editor in Wikipedia's history to do so. Feel free to ignore my questions by the way. I'm just interested in things that might help to depolarize the topic area, like explicit commitments to not advocate on behalf of parties to the conflict (although I'm aware that the adversarial nature of the topic area might, under certain circumstances, help to increase the quality of content). Sean.hoyland (talk) 11:26, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

Like any contributor on Wikipedia, I respect the platform's core principles, rules, and best practices to the best of my knowledge. Specifically, I strive to avoid advocating for any side and ensure that both my contributions and those of others align with the principle of neutrality of point of view (NPOV).

Since you raise the topic, I believe the best way to depolarize a contentious area is to acknowledge that every party involved inherently has its own biases.

Anyway, your concern is far from that of ScottishFinnishRadish and Star Mississippi. Michael Boutboul (talk) 18:30, 29 December 2024 (UTC)

@Star Mississippi, have you reviewed my edits? Could you please clearly explain your concerns? No one has provided a clear explanation for refusing to reassess my extended confirmed rights. Additionally, @ScottishFinnishRadish made an incorrect statement regarding proper attribution for translations. Michael Boutboul (talk) 20:40, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I primarily work with files on Wikimedia Commons, where I have file mover and autopatrol rights. The process of file moving on English Wikipedia is almost the same as the practices on Commons.

I would very much like to remain a New Page Patroller, please, and to have the three-month period extended indefinitely. I greatly enjoy this aspect of being a Wikipedia editor, and believe that I have made a very positive contribution. In the three months since my NPP rights were last discussed, I have marked as reviewed several hundred pages, some of which I had to edit quite a bit to get them into appropriate shape and others which were created so well that they were really good without me having to do much or anything. I have of course reflected a lot on how best to go about this important task, and to minimize my errors and weak judgements. I am far more cautious than before, and consequently I have actually marked as reviewed far fewer pages per week than I did before. Indeed, when patrolling new pages, I often edit pages for hours each day without marking any at all as reviewed. I am demanding a higher standard in my own mind than hitherto. This does not mean that I have not made mistakes over the last few months. I am human and have made errors. I do not believe there have been many, however, and I consider my efforts to be reliable and trustworthy, but I am disappointed in myself for making any mistakes at all. The key here is that I try hard always to learn from them and not to repeat them. I am neither proud nor disputatious, and I try to treat all fellow editors with respect and pleasantness if they highlight any issue, and I do try to absorb and begin using any and all guidance that I receive. I respectfully ask my fellow editors to see that any errors over the last three months have been very few, and that by percentage of the pages I have edited or marked as reviewed, the errors are a tiny percent, thus establishing me as dependable and trustworthy. I have gratefully received several barnstars for my patrolling throughout this period. I repeat that I regret getting anything wrong at all and aim for zero errors. I am committed to this standard.

Managing the NPP backlog is something I've been doing for some time in terms of monitoring video game pages as part of WP:VG. I've been pretty extensively involved in managing drafts, particularly flagging and identifying drafts that do not meet WP:GNG or other reasons, and taking WP:DRAFTIFY, WP:PROD or WP:AFD actions for recently created articles that do not meet WP:GNG. I think the track record with WP:AFD is pretty solid even if it leans to deletionism a little. I've just realised I could be doing something more constructive and marking reviewed pages as well. Believe there was a one-month trial run I did in 2024. ＶＲＸＣＥＳ (talk) 11:46, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

 Done for two months. You've mostly been active in the video game area, though it wouldn't hurt to review articles in other subject areas as well.

 Not done. I don't think you have enough experience at WP:AFD yet to be considered for this user right at the moment. You've participated in less than 10 AfDs in total, and your rationales there don't really demonstrate your understanding of our notability guidelines. This nomination doesn't explain why notability is in doubt or how and why the article doesn't meet applicable guidelines such as WP:GNG or this WP:SNGs, and this other recent nomination says that the article should be deleted because it has no references. Notability isn't about the content of the article at the time it is nominated for deletion, it is about about determining whether the subject has any sources available that would warrant a separate article dedicated to it. Deletion is not cleanup, and if the subject may have sources online that cover it, it shouldn't be nominated at AfD. I suggest reading up on our guidelines around notability and re-applying for this right after a couple months of participating in AfD and other deletion venues.

Hi. Recently, i've been reverting vandalism and disruptive edits on Wikipedia with Twinkle and Ultraviolet, and as an extended-confirmed user, I have over 850 edits. I also revert good faith edits, and if I get this request accepted I will be able to reject vandalism put on pending changes (on pending changes). 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 22:36, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

(Non-administrator comment) Even if you're not pending changes reviewer, you can reject pending changes by reverting them. Pending changes reviewer, on the other hand, gives you the ability to accept changes. Rusty 🐈 14:37, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

I already know that, and the reason why im really requesting this is to accept pending changes and to reject them at the same time. (forgot to put the acceptance part) 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 03:28, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

I believe this could help me out with the current vandalism fighting I do that may involve pages with pending changes. I have read WP:RCP, and I have a good understanding of Wikipedia's P&Gs. Mon Bhai ^converse∫_edits Mon Bhai (talk) 16:42, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

Requesting Pending Changes reviewer permission - I am active editor for quite some time now and recently saw an alert for January New Page patrol backlog drive. I want to contribute to that, but thought I can start with Pending change reviewer first. I have a good understanding of wiki policies, and am continuing to familiarize myself with them. I have also read Wikipedia:Reviewing_pending_changes#Criteria_to_receive_this_permission and understand expectations for both gaining the rights and performing the pending changes.

Hi. I've been editing wikipedia semi-actively when real life allows for almost 3 years and recently surpassed 1000 edits. I have fully read and understood everything linked at WP:PCCRITERIA. The main reason I think I am suited to having pending changes reviewer rights is because of my current project to clean up the backlog at CAT:ESP, CAT:EEP and in the future CAT:COIREQ. The work between those and proposed changed reviewing is very similar and would allow me to help there as well. Ultraodan (talk) 11:01, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Have been a part of Wikipedia for a while now, usually contributing with proofreading, rewriting for clarity, updating data, removing inaccurate data, etc. With most of my contributions being of an editing nature (rather than creating something new), I think that being able to approve pending edits from others would allow me to contribute more.

As someone who frequently edits and creates U.S. state legislature pages and living biographies, I strongly believe that receiving this permission will allow me to help combat vandalism, especially as the wikis of living people are often vandalized. I am 100% aware of being able to revert vandalized edits -- however, some edits are genuine, and I would love to help out in that domain of expertise. WormEater13 (talk) 14:04, 5 January 2025 (UTC)

I would like to request rollback rights to combat vandalism more efficiently. I am an experienced recent changes patroller and I understand that the rollback should be used mainly for clear cases of vandalism. I am committed to using this tool responsibly. Nxcrypto Message 12:07, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

Hi NXcrypto, please undo Special:Diff/1265567139 and respond to Worldbruce's concern. It doesn't look like the worst kind of edit warring I've ever seen, but Worldbruce was concerned about it without being involved in the reverting, so you should probably take a moment to address their concerns instead of throwing them away. The edit summary of Special:Diff/1265564114 indicates that their primary concern is you not (yet?) using the article's talk page. If that's true, perhaps change it or announce that you are not longer interested and disengage from the conflict. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 22:13, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

Reverted and replied on both venues, talk page[7] and article talk page.[8] Thanks. Nxcrypto Message 00:18, 28 December 2024 (UTC)

I edit mostly in academic philosophy and closely adjacent areas. Twinkle is adequate for the vandalism that I encounter in articles on my watchlist. I read Wikipedia more broadly, however, and might be more active in assisting with general anti-vandalism efforts with the help of tools such as Huggle that make this easier to do, but which require rollback privileges to use (this would be the case especially if any of them make it easier to do in a responsible way on a tablet, rather than at the desktop I use for regular editing). I've been bitten as a newbie, and am alert lest I do this to anyone else. Wikipedia's coverage of the humanities is, to put it generously, uneven. On the few occasions I've encountered someone new with obvious subject-matter expertise who is making problematic, but good-faith edits, I have made a deliberate effort to welcome them, offer information, and protect them from more aggressive defenders of guidelines and policies (who might turn them off Wikipedia before they even have a chance to learn the basics, which are in some ways quite at odds with academic norms). This is just to say that I will, of course, use manual reverts with edit descriptions and talk pages, rather than rollback or anything requiring it, except in cases of blatant vandalism or persistent abuse by editors who disregard clear and polite notices of issues with their edits. Thank you for your consideration, Patrick (talk) 03:29, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

I have been patrolling the recent changes page for a long time now, and it's pretty much the only thing I do on here (other then occasional copyediting.) When I learned about rollback and its benefits, I thought that could be a huge help for me and patrolling against vandalism. I love patrolling, and this will make my life so much easier.
