Not a blatant violation of the username policy, but it's worth keeping an eye on their edits. "Name at business" type usernames are, as I recall, not objected to. The BushrangerOne ping only 21:12, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
The name plus business exception specifically listed in policy refers to idenfication as a specific individual("John of XYZ Corp"); this seems to refer to a position, suggesting the account can be handed to a successor to the current holder of the position. In any event, it's changed now. 331dot (talk) 08:55, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Comment: Given a welcome-coi and the edit summary deleted as it contained an email address. - The BushrangerOne ping only 21:08, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
Place requests for new or upgrading of article protection, upload protection, or create protection at the BOTTOM of this section. Check the archive of fulfilled and denied requests or, failing that, the page history if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent additions of poorly sourced advertising fluff, and removal of info that is not unequivocally promotional, by IP users; mentions of "unauthorised persons" sound like there's a COI involved. Article has previously been protected multiple times for the same reason. bonadeacontributionstalk 09:32, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Indefinite semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – ongoing vandalism of the infobox against consensus despite repeated warnings and clear markup within the editing. All my warmest wishes, ItsKesha (talk) 09:43, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Daniel Case (talk) 19:32, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: User using multiple IP addresses to add false information stating that Everlast was a member of the Helmet (band) based on one collaborative live performance the user found on YouTube. NJZombie (talk) 18:07, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Less of this than on the Helmet pages. Daniel Case (talk) 20:46, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Adding more context: some users have been gaming the system by editing their user pages over and over again, resulting in 500+ edits and thereby giving them extended confirmed rights. Afterwards, they copy-paste entire articles into the page. Check the user contributions for some of the blocked accounts for more info. - OpalYosutebito (talk) 18:37, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
User(s) blocked. The PGAMErs have been globally locked. Daniel Case (talk) 20:54, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Temporary extended confirmed protection:BLP policy violations – Article is currently subject to semi protection for controversial BLP content and edit warring. Article subject is related to current events. The conduct has continued from semi-confirmed editors and appears to currently be undergoing an edit war. Requires a step up in protection. Lenny Marks (talk) 19:56, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Declined – Not enough recent disruptive activity to justify protection. Not seeing a lot of editing, period, in the last couple of months. Daniel Case (talk) 20:59, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing – Persistent disruptive and unexplained editing by several IPs. Page needs more protection. CycloneYoristalk! 20:10, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Holding off on this because there's one pending revision I don't think I know enough to make the call on. Daniel Case (talk) 21:01, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Reason: High level of IP vandalism, starting in 2009(see hist or diffs). Requested protection type: Semi-protection. RaschenTechner (talk) 21:36, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of 1 year, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Ymblanter (talk) 22:05, 22 December 2024 (UTC)
Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.
To find out the username of the admin who protected the page, click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page," which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page, please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected, please use the section below.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Reason: Protection is too high and it was for sockpuppetry in 2018. It's nearly 2025 now so if it needs protecting just do pending changes or semi-protection but unprotection would be better I think. 147.10.234.99 (talk) 23:19, 20 December 2024 (UTC)
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among {{Edit protected}}, {{Edit template-protected}}, {{Edit extended-protected}}, or {{Edit semi-protected}} to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed.
If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.
Hayden Panettiere artricle: Joe Somebody (2001) with Tim Allen
Why have you unreverted my revision on the Hayden Panettiere artricle by removing Joe Somebody (2001) with Tim Allen? 86.130.33.243 (talk) 22:31, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
Sorry, unregistered users cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.
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 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. NxcryptoMessage 12:07, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
Hello! I've been patrolling Recent Changes for a few months now. Rollback will help my work, especially when I'm out and about and can only access the app. Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 15:28, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
I want to note that I am currently recieving CVU training on this page and am willing to apply again later if it is felt that I am not yet ready for this permission. I would also greatly appreciate any guidence (especially on that page). Cmrc23 ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 13:47, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
I would like rollback to help me combat vandalism more effectively. I currently use recent changes and RedWarn. I feel that I have the experience necessary to handle vandalism in a constructive manner. Grumpylawnchair (talk) 04:04, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
Hi! Though I started out doing grammar fixes, over the past 2 weeks, I've been using Twinkle and RedWarn to revert any vandalism seen on Special:RecentChanges. It's understandable if you'd like to impose the hard and fast rule of 1-month experience, but I've made almost 300 edits related to vandalism. I always leave a message for the editor and undo my revert in cases where I question my decision in hindsight and would rather have another pair of eyes look at the edit(s).
Having the rollback permission would make RedWarn reverting faster for me and would also allow me to try out other anti-vandalism tools like Huggle. Could I have the right please? randomdude121 (leave a message!) 09:19, 21 December 2024 (UTC)
I view that having this user right would help in fighting vandalism a lot faster. I know I would be far more efficient with fighting vandalism if I were to be granted Rollback. I have been editing for over 7 months, and I have well over 5140 edits, with a focus on mitigating abuse on the wiki. I am a frequent contributor to AIV and RPP.
