Extended confirmed

[edit]
Sorry, temporary accounts cannot be granted permissions due to technical restrictions. Please create an account in order to request user account permissions.
Shortcuts
  • Before making a request here, you should be aware that accounts are automatically granted this group after 30 days since your first edit and once you have made a total of 500 edits.
  • This access is required for editing highly contentious pages that have in most cases been protected by the Arbitration Committee or by community consensus under the 30/500 category. A list of these articles is found here. It is also required to use the content translation tool.
  • Unless you are requesting confirmation for a legitimate alternate account, or are requesting re-granting after your permissions were manually revoked, your request will almost certainly be denied.

[edit]

I am requesting the restoration of my Extended Confirmed rights.

My previous request from September 6th wasn't approved by voorts based on generic claims ("This request seems LLM-generated to me" and "There are several AI tells in your request"), but when I explicitly asked what those tells were, no explanation or text examples were provided.

I need to state clearly again: I do not use AI. English is not my native language, and my use of dictionaries and Google Translate to verify phrasing is what triggers false positives on automated detectors. This is not the first time this has happened to me, and I face a lot of unfair suspicion on Wikipedia as a result. Ignoring a non-native speaker's explanation and leaving generic AI accusations unexplained does not align with community values.

A major reason I need this permission is to access the Content Translation tool. I have manually translated and created over 30 articles on this wiki, and not having this tool limits my ability to contribute.

I have carefully reviewed past administrator feedback regarding extended confirmed requirements after a revocation and implemented them before submitting this request. Following the expected standard, I have focused strictly on manual, constructive work in the mainspace. Since losing the permission (at around 560 edits), I have made over 570 additional manual, documented, and productive edits in the mainspace, bringing my current total to over 1,130 edits.

My recent notable contributions include researching and creating Non ædificandi from scratch and expanding Impasse Florimont, which was manually cleaned up, reviewed, and upgraded to B-Class status.

I am NOT using LLMs. I am a REAL human editor who wishes to continue contributing to the English Wikipedia, and I am asking to please restore my Extended Confirmed rights.

Automated comment This user has had 1 request for extended confirmed declined or withdrawn in the past 90 days () and has had this permission revoked in the past 180 days (). — MusikBot talk 12:00, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
I rarely use LLM detectors. I'm not sharing what the tells are because then you would know how to avoid them. Another admin will evaluate this request on its merits and see if I was wrong. voorts (talk/contributions) 12:58, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Also, you don't need XC to translate articles. You can translate to draft and then move the page to mainspace yourself or submit it through AfC. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:47, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
Can you please contribute without the use of a translation tool? Sufficient English competence is required to edit on the English Wikipedia. If your English is not good enough to write articles or talk with other editors without the use of translation tools, I would suggest editing on your native language's wiki. voorts (talk/contributions) 20:49, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
(Non-administrator comment) Based on my impressions, it looks like this user probably wrote the request by hand in their native language, and then used an AI translation tool to translate it to English. Maayaaaaa (talk) 13:39, 28 September 2026 (UTC)reply
 Not done. Red X Blocked indefinitely for LLM misuse and denial of the same, as described in the AI noticeboard discussion. — Newslinger talk 13:18, 3 October 2026 (UTC)reply

Hi, I’m AlohaFromHawaii11, but my main account, Bennett Li11 has ECP rights and I would like to request ECP with this alt because my main does not have the new editor dashboard while this one does.
