Template:Admin dashboard/light

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  1. Frequently, some pages transcluding {{Admin dashboard}} are going on overflow and appear at Category:Pages_where_post-expand_include_size_is_exceeded.
    This Template:Admin dashboard/light has been rewritten by including directly all the parts that were dispersed in so many sub-templates.
  2. The "leaks out boxes" error has been fixed.
  3. Pages RFPP and UNFAA are simply linked (i.e. not transcluded) when too busy

List of animated films with LGBT characters[edit]

Reason: There has been a lot of IP vandalism as of late (sometimes with IP addresses fighting each other through their edits). Me and other users have attempted to revert some of this, but I can't do much more without violating WP:3RR or starting an edit war, neither of which I want to do.

User(s) blocked: 85.104.192.0/23 (talk · contribs) blocked by Daniel Case. from the article for a month.

Reason: Temporary semi-protection: Page was protected for 2 days on May 10 due to a persistent vandal who kept changing the name at the top of the infobox and choosing gibberish usernames like Gy6hhhy and Tyujhyyu. Less than an hour after the protection lapsed, we again have the article being vandalized (example) by someone changing the name at the top of the infobox and choosing a gibberish user name - Yhhgy755gg7 this time.

Current requests for reduction in protection level[edit]

Request unprotection of a page, or reducing the protection level

Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin at 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.
  • Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
  • 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.

Shays' Rebellion[edit]

Reason: Page has been move protected for almost two decades; had move vandalism in the early days of the encyclopedia, but no reason to believe that such vandalism is still an issue. BilledMammal (talk) 02:31, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Alien[edit]

Reason: Extended confirmed protection is no longer necessary, because it doesn't seem like there has been much disruptive editing. Lower it to Semi-protected 70.50.199.125 (talk) 03:16, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Surely you jest? The page isn't protected! (Last protection fell off Oct. 2020.) —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 03:27, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page[edit]

Request a specific edit to a protected page
Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here

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.
  • Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the {{Edit COI}} template should be used.
  • Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
  • 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.


Talk:Israel-Hamas war[edit]

I would like to request the addition of a talk page on the Israel-Hamas war article that points out that the map on said article doesn’t show the Israeli evacuation order from Rafah and should be updated. LordOfWalruses (talk) 21:45, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrolled[edit]

User:Princess of Ara[edit]

I recently noticed this user, Princess of Ara. An editor who works mainly on Nigerian related articles and others. While trying to appreciate the user's effort, I got in love with the lovely articles, well sources, written from a volunteer in good faith and now, I am requesting that she be granted the auto patrol user right. It'll also help reduce heavy backlog of NPP. Thanks for your consideration! Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 08:05, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

User:Prince of Erebor[edit]

I have created 76 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 EreborThe 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)

Page mover[edit]


User:Wikiexplorationandhelping[edit]

I have participated in quite a few page moves as of late, and this could help me move pages more better and efficiently. Wikiexplorationandhelping (talk) 14:45, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

 Done. Primefac (talk) 12:36, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

User:PrimalMustelid[edit]

I work frequently on paleontological taxon pages, so it is necessary for me to be able to perform uncontroversial page moves, such as multiple clades of Hyaenodonta that were promoted to family rank by a user due to WP:OR. It is also useful for operating successful page move requests as I have previously needed to request moving pages for the likes of Ichthyosauria, Cynodontia, etc. PrimalMustelid (talk) 04:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC) PrimalMustelid (talk) 04:37, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

User:Soni[edit]

I started working at the WP:CR backlog recently and realised I need the pagemover permission to close some RM discussions. So far I requested CSD to effectively move the page, but I will probably close more discussions in the future. Soni (talk) 10:12, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

 Not done for now, while you have started working in this area, we prefer someone has a solid track record before applying. I'm not seeing any major issues from what I'm seeing, just not yet a large need. Primefac (talk) 12:37, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Understood, thank you. Soni (talk) 12:52, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

User:ToadetteEdit[edit]

Reason for requesting page mover rights: multiple reasons including to swap pages (as a result of RM discussions) and suppress redirects, especially R2 eligible. I understood that I won't abuse this privileged right and read the instructions. ToadetteEdit! 15:41, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

 Not done You've only had an account for about a week and you have no track record with dealing with antivandalism, which is what this user right is usually intended for. I think you need some more time to learn about antivandalism and participate more in the mainspace so that we can get a track record of your understanding of our policies and guidelines (such as what vandalism is or is not) before you can be granted this user right.

Rollback[edit]

User:Kingsmasher678[edit]

I would like to add another tool to my antivandalism toolbelt. I already use Twinkle and make a point to warn most if not vandals. This has resulted in a lower reoccurrence rate and helps the wiki. I will use the tool to assist in these efforts. Kingsmasher678 (talk) 16:13, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

 Not done I noticed you started actively reverting vandalism about 2 weeks ago. While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I'd like to see you spend more time gaining experience fighting vandalism before assigning you advanced permissions. Keep up the good work, and consider reapplying in a month. Also, please ensure that you are consistently warning editors when you revert their edits (I recommend using tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet which makes this extremely easy). Thanks, Fastily 19:23, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Would streamline the editing process for reversion when combatting vandalism or unnecessary additions on a handful of articles, as it is currently a pain on mobile (my main platform) Editmakerer (talk) 19:22, 12 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 00:22, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
