Template:Admin dashboard/light
- 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. - The "leaks out boxes" error has been fixed.
- Pages RFPP and UNFAA are simply linked (i.e. not transcluded) when too busy

- Hi Airplaneman! I think that the previous 3-year protection was excessive as it was an escalation from 3 months and there was no established long-term pattern. I used pending changes because there were gaps of several days in disruptive editing, such as in 25–29 July. My personal opinion is that indefinite protection would be too much, but people are free to disagree if they feel otherwise. Thanks, Sdrqaz (talk) 04:57, 5 August 2026 (UTC)

Reason: Semi-protection is needed here, and has been for quite some time. This is a high-viewership page (over 1 million per year) subject to frequent vandalism, as you can see in the history of the page. Additionally, thanks to this historical figure's recent prominence in popular culture, many of these edits are clearly unserious and not intended to improve Wikipedia. 🌷Reverosie🌷★talk★ 04:02, 5 August 2026 (UTC)

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)
- (Non-administrator comment) @LivingLife1976 Kismet Ke Here Phere created in mainspace on 20 July, tagged for additional citations the following day, orphan-tagged on 30 July (not a big deal), and moved by you to draftspace on 1 August "for further improvement", less than four hours before this request was filed. I believe this indicates that at least one very recent creation benefited from the scrutiny this permission would have bypassed.
- But then, on 16 February Diannaa removed 1,113 bytes from Draft:Rawal Jagmal, identifying the removed material as copied from a published gazetteer. I would not treat this incident alone as decisive, especially given your subsequent works, but copyright familiarity is directly relevant as an autopatrolled user. So, I'd recommend waiting for a longer clean record of fully prepared mainspace creations, after all, that is what this bit is about; it doesn't make you capable of anything special on-wiki.

I have created 50+ articles, including one improvment GA: Bishop O'Dowd High School. I have done much recent work at WP:AFC and previous work (10,000+ reviews) at WP:NPP. I believe that my two most recent article Zachary's Chicago Pizza and Thunder Bay 36 Fire is a testament to my well-sourced, well-organized, and well-written articles. I've since been more careful to verify sources match the claims they support, as raised in my previous request. Thanks, CostalCal (talk) 07:07, 3 August 2026 (UTC)

- @CostalCal
- I immediately noticed multiple simple issues on Zachary's Chicago Pizza:
- All five magazines/newspapers listed in the lede should be italicized. (this occurs in the article body too)
- The first sentence of the article's body reads "
The company was founded on July 25, 1983 by...
" – it is missing a comma and should read "The company was founded on July 25, 1983, by...
" - Same issue at "
Zachary's opened a second location in Berkeley, California on...
", which should read "Zachary's opened a second location in Berkeley, California, on...
" (this occurs again with Oakland) - There are MOS:GEOLINK issues in the infobox
- I dont have time to take a full look at Thunder Bay 36 Fire but immediately noticed "
By late July, the fire measured to be at almost 314,000 hectares by 28–29 July

- They're definitely minor issues @CostalCal but good examples of where (in my opinion) you can demonstrate your attention to detail, which will help you if/when you re-apply :)
- In any form of English, the phrasing of the sentence I mentioned from Thunder Bay 36 Fire does not make sense. One of the bolded sections can be removed as redundant. aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 03:38, 4 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!

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.

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 would like to have pending changes reviewer rights, because I occasionally come across pending changes that I am interested in accepting/not accepting on the recent changes page.

I have made a few thousand edits now, many of which are in blp/ antivandalism, and i very regularly see pending changes that i feel i have the skills and knowledge to appropriately approve or deny, and generally think this is a good way i can continue to help contribute to wikipedia. i have read the relevant guidelines and feel my experience applies pretty directly to evaluating all the criteria except copyright, but i am more than willing and able to learn and have been reading up on the copyright policies in advance of sending this request.

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.

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.

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)

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)

Hi. I am requesting TE rights so I can make edits to template-protected template faster. I have numerous (over 5) template requests, of which I believe around 5 have been accepted, and have made over 3 sandbox edits. My main template edite are those which help readability on Dark Mode while minimally affecting light mode, such as my series of edite to Wdefcon templates ({{Edit COI/backlog}}, {{AfC information}}, etc.). With TE, I would be able to make more of these, alongside others. Axolitl (talk | contribs) 22:49, 14 July 2026 (UTC)

- This request has gone unanswered for a while, so I'll ping @Primefac who checked the guidelines for me. Since making this request, I now have 8 fulfilled Template-protected edit requests () and 3 pending (). Is this enough for my request to be reviewed again?

- Previous request (March 2026)
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)
- Could you point to a few examples of where you have used the right on high-risk templates in the past few months? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:35, 24 July 2026 (UTC)
- Yes. I have used the template editor right on Module:Gridiron color/data & Module:College color/data, which are both high-risk templates. Here's the edit diff from May 22, 2026 from when I previously had the WP:TPE right and used it to change the HTML hex color codes for the Canadian Football League (CFL)'s Hamilton Tiger-Cats. Here's the edit diff from April 29, 2026 from when I previously had the template editor right and used it to change the historical HTML color codes for the National Football League (NFL)'s Dallas Cowboys. Here's the edit diff from March 29, 2026 from when I previously had the template editor right and used it to change the URL source reference for the California Golden Bears. CharlesEditor23 (talk) 03:40, 26 July 2026 (UTC)
- Are the examples I've provided sufficient enough? The main reason why I'm requesting WP:TPE right is so I may be able to make changes to high risk templates such as Module:Gridiron color/data & Module:College color/data. I'm happy to answer any & all other questions. CharlesEditor23 (talk) 16:47, 28 July 2026 (UTC)
- I will note I haven't had a chance to look at them yet; please be patient. Primefac (talk) 21:53, 28 July 2026 (UTC)
- I will note I am somewhat concerned about a lack of forethought and/or sandboxing, specifically:
- Special:Diff/1348435472 and Special:Diff/1348440671, made 30 minutes apart
- Special:Diff/1358471990 ("testing adding historical codes") and Special:Diff/1358490055 ("never mind")
- That being said, there does appear to be a reasonable amount of sandboxing for some of these changes (e.g. Special:Diff/1348021134), and I am very appreciative of the descriptive edit summaries (With a courtesy ping to WikiOriginal-9 who edits the same modules without any summaries). As I think I've said before, no one is perfect (my talk page is a perfect example of that), and (so far) no one seems to have noticed or cared about the occasionally-rapid-reverts of changes. I'd like to wait to hear what MSGJ thinks about this since they asked the initial follow-up question, but I think at the moment I am tentatively an accept. Primefac (talk) 13:20, 2 August 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!
