Reason: This article has been subject to edit warring by sockpuppets and temporary accounts since August 1. See relevant SPI page and thread on WikiProject Medicine talk page. The editors need to go talk it out on the talk page instead of reverting each other, and a bit of page protection would encourage this. Dreamyshade (talk) 23:43, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

I request the following sentence be removed from the lead's 2nd paragraph:
"and subsequently annexing the Strait of Hormuz"
This sentence was recently added but is completely unsourced, not in the body, and POV pushing. Although Iran has claimed sovereignty over the strait, there are no sources claiming that it has actually successfully annexed it during the ongoing war or even attempted officially to do so. The linked page on sovereignty in the text which is a new page created by the same user also doesn't even support this wording of annexation. Current talks between Iran and Oman are about shared administration as well, not annexation. ~2026-43592-81 (talk) 07:20, 7 August 2026 (UTC)
The current wording states:
“Present DGP (Additional Charge) of Haryana Police is Ajay Singhal since January 1, 2026.”
Please change it to:
“Present DGP of Haryana Police is Ajay Singhal since January 1, 2026.” Aman1319 (talk) 06:15, 10 August 2026 (UTC)
Change the 'Platform' parameter to be Platform(s). This is because there could be more than one Platform for a software. Wikiediter2029 (talk) Nosey? Stalk My edits 08:11, 10 August 2026 (UTC)

Autopatrolled
I have created 35+ articles and intend to continue creating more. I believe my article creation history demonstrates familiarity with Wikipedia's content and sourcing policies, and so I am requesting the autopatrolled right to help reduce workload for New Pages Patrol.LivingLife1976 (talk) 11:25, 1 August 2026 (UTC) LivingLife1976 (talk) 11:25, 1 August 2026 (UTC)
Hi! I'm here to request permanent autopatrolled rights. I was previously granted a 2-month temporary autopatrolled right back in June, but the period will end on August 11th. In total, I've created over 130 articles for Wikipedia with a focus on biographies of underrepresented individuals, including 10 DYKs, and have brought two articles to GA status. I've also been quite active in the Articles for Deletion procedure and in GA reviewing. I've grown quite familiar with the process of article creation on Wikipedia, and plan to continue creating more articles, so I'd love to get permanent autopatrolled rights. Thank you! Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 20:40, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
I am an experienced Wikipedian, former admin (107/1/1). Desysoped in 2023 due to inactivity. I originally received autopatrolled priviliges in 2009, although these seem to have been revoked during the desysoping. According to my tally, I have about 50 thousand edits, have created about two and a half thousand articles, have significantly contributed to 207 DYKs, 187 GAs, 19 FLs, 4 GT and 2 FT, and have conducted 309 GA reviews. I regularly create new articles, so hope that status as 'autopatrolled' can help offload the patrols. Arsenikk (talk) 18:03, 5 August 2026 (UTC) |

AutoWikiBrowser
Would like to use when I get my computer back, will use to do edits that if done manually would be tedious. Beta Beta Beta - talk 22:06, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
I would like to create navigation templates for groups of related articles that currently lack them and use AWB to add those templates where appropriate. I have not created navigation templates before, but I am familiar with Wikipedia’s policies and would take care to review my work and ensure edits are appropriate. I understand if more experience with this type of maintenance work is needed before being granted the permission. If granted, I would use AWB carefully and review each edit before saving. Mascius (talk) 19:49, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
Hi there, I would like to use AWB to help speed up edits replacing the deprecated
I already have some experience with making changes using semi-automatic tools (and even my automatic bot) I build myself with PyWikiBot, but it would be a lot easier if I didn't have to write an entire program each time I want to make new edits. I would use AWB to help me add add navboxes I create to various pages in a category, fix duplicated and deprecated parameters in templates, and test AWB scripts that I may submit BRFAs for as FlammableBot tasks in the future. FlammablePizza (talk) 23:32, 2 August 2026 (UTC)
Hello! I recently saw this tool pop while looking at my watchlist and I decided I kind of need this. I make articles and heavily expand articles during my pasttime, and sometimes wrong grammar slips by whenever I make/edit these articles. One of the hardest ones to spot are the typos and double letters. I would mostly use the AWB just so I could check the grammar on the articles I've edited and some others as well. This is just so that not another editor has to fix a typo I made for some time ago. If you would like some more information, I would happily oblige. (Here are my edits statistics btw) DoNothingEveryday (talk) 09:08, 5 August 2026 (UTC)

New page reviewer
Hi! I'd like to request the New Page Reviewer user right to help reduce the backlog. I have experience with page creations, having created or converted from redirect 122 pages. I've also promoted two articles to WP:GAs, and am frequently active in DYK, in AfD and in GANRs. Jishara (talk) 12:23, 29 July 2026 (UTC)
I previously held the temporary New Page Reviewer permissions for one month, which has now expired. During this time, I used the Page Curation tool to review articles and drafts according to Wikipedia's policies. Since my temporary right has expired, I would like to request full restoration of my permission,so that I may continue to help the community with the backlog. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 16:37, 31 July 2026 (UTC)
Hey everyone, I improved very much and think i am now a candidate for NPP. I think i fulfil all the requirements for NPP Abdullah1099 (talk) 05:09, 6 August 2026 (UTC)
Granted temporary NPR by Femke three months ago, which has now ran out. According to XTools, I've made around 100 reviews since then. I wish to continue reviewing music articles on occasion, so would appreciate a permanent grant. Thanks, UpTheOctave! • 8va? 23:56, 9 August 2026 (UTC)
I was granted a temporary right which is now due to expire in few days. I have reviewed a number of articles and I'm increasingly getting acquainted with article reviews, so I will like to continue contributing in that area. Santa Saana (talk) 07:14, 10 August 2026 (UTC) |

Pending changes reviewer
I am requesting the pending changes reviewer permission to assist with maintaining the quality of articles on English Wikipedia. My contributions have primarily focused on expanding and improving articles by adding reliable, independent sources, improving references, and organizing content in accordance with Wikipedia's content policies. 0ximjub43r (talk) 22:12, 27 July 2026 (UTC)
I am familiar with Wikipedia and its guidelines; occasionally come across pending changes I'd like to review. MSWS (talk) 03:18, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
Reason for requesting pending changes reviewer rights I would like to be able to review edits that are on pending changes pages, as well as unprotected pages. I have 900 edits now, which a good number of them are anti-vandal edits. I also feel that I have a good knowledge on Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and I feel I could use that knowledge on pending changes pages as well as unprotected pages. MathMan4 (talk) 06:03, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
I would like to review pending changes encountered during recent edits patrol. I am familiar with Wikipedia's content policies. Mascius (talk) 18:28, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
In my recent changes patrols, I semi-frequently come across pending changes. If the changes are vandalism, I revert them, but I would also like the ability to accept good pending changes while I'm at it. I already have rollback, extended confirmed, and over 1.6k edits. I also have read and am familiar with the relevant policies. FlammablePizza (talk) 21:20, 31 July 2026 (UTC)

Rollback
I would like to request Rollback rights. My last request was on 18 May. According to previous advice, I have tried to follow a clear workflow, including issuing warnings and reporting Vandalism, Block evasion, and Disruptive editing at AIV, RFPP, and AN/EW. In addition, I use Twinkle for warnings, reports, and reverts. AriuCH (talk) 18:27, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
I've recently been using SWViewer and Twinkle to revert vandalism, so this permission would be very useful for me. I'm already very familiar with how it works, as I already have this permission on other Wikimedia projects. -- 🐦🔥 Aws 💬 Talk 14:23, 12 July 2026 (UTC)
I would like to request Rollback permissions firstly in order to make use of tools like Huggle & AntiVandal. Secondly rollback permissions will allow me to increase the speed of my workflow as most of it consists of RC patrolling edits by unregistered & new accounts. My contribution history demonstrates that I have multiple months of RC Patrol experience and no history of edit warring. At the time of writing this I have 656 live edits of which 220 are in the Main namespace and 262 are in the User Talk namespace, this shows my track record of consistently notifying editors when reverting their edits. Vydrakk (talk) 10:03, 15 July 2026 (UTC)
I would like to request my Rollback rights. My previous request on June 15 was declined because I was blocked for making disruptive edits. Since I'm autoconfirmed, I use Twinkle to revert the edits which was vandalized by the IPs (or later TAs). Thomasfan1916[built buses?] 20:15, 23 July 2026 (UTC)
I am requesting permanent rollback rights after a 1 month trial in the past, as well as my recent 3 month trial. Over the course of the past few months, I have served as a CVUA instructor, and have continued using antivandalism tools like Wikishield and CVPI to prevent vandalism from infecting the wiki. 「Norellia.sh」(talk) 08:29, 26 July 2026 (UTC)
I would like to request rollback rights. I check the recent changes page a couple times a day and I use Twinkle currently to revert vandalism. I have over 200 mainspace edits as well as extended-confirmed permissions. I always use warning templates after reverting edits and make reports to AIV when necessary. Rollback would help me look through recent changes much more effectively with tools such as Interceptor or WikiShield. If not permanent, a month-long trial run of rollback would also work, so that I could reapply eventually. Bungle491 (talk) 06:27, 28 July 2026 (UTC)
I have antivandalism experience and I am requesting rollback permissions to be better equipped to fight vandals. My track record shows that I'm good at differentiating between vandalism and good faith edits, and responding accordingly. - Otherwise (Talk?) 02:50, 29 July 2026 (UTC)
Reason for requesting rollback rights I have 900 edits now, which a lot of them are reverting vandalism and ensuring pages follow Wikipedia's quality guidelines. I feel that being able to rollback pages/edits will help me ensure that Wikipedia's quality standards are being met, especially when a user has made multiple poor-quality edits. MathMan4 (talk) 05:57, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
Reason for requesting rollback rights, I mainly edit reality shows and there are constantly fan edits. I have to revert in most cases to stable one but it unfortunately also includes some good edits. Overall, extra hard work. Rollback will definitely help me. :) Tenshi Uisu (talk) 16:05, 30 July 2026 (UTC)
Been on wp for almost a year now with 5000 edits, already use Twinkle on a regular basis and would be useful when I'm reviewing pages. Fortek67 (talk) 12:13, 31 July 2026 (UTC)
I would like to request rollback rights as it will help me fight vandalism. I currently use Twinkle and I would like to use tools such as CVPI to revert vandalism quicker. Alpha Beta Delta Lambda (talk) 22:00, 2 August 2026 (UTC)
Articles are often subjected to persistent vandalism by unregistered IP users or even newly registered users. Such edits are frequently spotted while patrolling recent changes. Reverting these edits using the Twinkle gadget is quite cumbersome. I know when to use rollback. Mathew D'Marco (talk) 17:33, 4 August 2026 (UTC)
I am requesting the rollback permission to help efficiently revert blatant vandalism and construct history fixes. I understand that rollback is only for clear vandalism and not for content disputes. Elison Pokhrel TALK 14:52, 6 August 2026 (UTC)
I have done a lot of anti-vandalism work in recent weeks but have been frustrated by my inability to be able to restore a previous version due to conflicting errors after vandalism. I consistently notify users and reply to their messages, and try to assist them and tell them what they have done wrong. I understand the uses of this tool and how it is not for content disputes, and I would use this tool responsibly. I have taken feedback from my last request, and I believe I am now in a place to apply. Thanks for your consideration. Equivalent-Text2598 (talk) 22:39, 8 August 2026 (UTC) |

Template editor
I recently possessed the template editor right, but it expired on July 1. I would like to request permanent template editor rights. I have met all the criteria for granting. I also am willing to prove I can be responsible again with possessing the template editor right permanently. CharlesEditor23 (talk) 05:13, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
Hello! My bot CutlassBot is applying the {{Deprecated archive}} template (recently protected). I’d like template editor permission while the bot is doing its run to apply the template so that I can handle any issues that come up for example, I have one change request pending at Module talk:Deprecated archive. I don’t intend to change any other high risk templates during this run. This is my first template so I don’t meet the guideline criteria. Alternatively, maybe we remove the protection from the module, but I think it’s lower risk to grant me the editor privileges for 3 months. Thanks for considering!

Temporary account IP viewer
Requesting temp account IP viewer for anti-vandalism work. I have read all guidelines and will not share IPs publicly. I have experience dealing with vandalism and other disruption. Tumbuka Arch (talk) 17:54, 7 August 2026 (UTC)
I am pretty experienced with SPIs, something that has been acknowledged by fellow editors before, and I believe TAIV could be a helpfull tool for the future. I have been informed about the rights and responsibilities that come with it. Piccco (talk) 21:22, 7 August 2026 (UTC)
Requesting for anti-vandalism work and occasional SPI work when I spot suspicious activity in recent changes. I have carefully read the WP:TAIV policy closely and fully understand when to use the tool granted by this permission. The person who loves reading (talk) 01:06, 8 August 2026 (UTC)
I'm requesting the TAIV account permission in order to better patrol recent changes for my counter-vandalism work and for making more informational reports to admin noticeboards and/or SPI. I've read the policy guidelines on this permission both here and on the Foundation website and agree to use this right in accordance with said policies. Sigma440 (talk) 23:10, 8 August 2026 (UTC) |
