Current requests for reduction in 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.
Current requests for edits 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.
My suggestion is to leave out the following 2 sentences in the "German complicity" paragraph as they seem to be based on misunderstandings:
"She also highlighted police suppression of pro-Palestine protests throughout Germany[509] as evidence of state complicity.[508] Karen Wells et al. highlight how Germany has entrenched its complicity in Israel's actions by banning use of the word "genocide" in reference to Israel.[471][better source needed]"
1. In general violent protests are not allowed in Germany. As some of the first pro-Palestine protests were violent, they were sometimes forbidden by courts, if they were expected to turn violent. But that is common policy in Gemany with all subjects and not special for pro-Palestine protests.
Meanwhile, there even is a calendar concerning pro-Palestinian protests[2] with daily up to 20 protests all over Germany. Thus, there is no general police suppression of pro-Palestine protests as is suggested by the current wording.
2. The word “genocide” is not banned in reference to Israel in Germany - maybe that was a misunderstanding: What is not allowed in Germany is to call for genocide against Jews. The slogan “From the river to the sea” is seen as such call and banned. Gilbert04 (talk) 15:34, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

In contrast, other statements such as "Israel, child murderer" or the description of Israeli military operations in Gaza as "genocide" were not objected to and the Administrative Court's decision was upheld in this respect.

This appears to have been dealt with? Selfstudier (talk) 16:13, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
Consider changing "The Israeli government rejected South Africa's allegations, and accused the court of being antisemitic, which it often does when criticised" to "The Israeli government has been accused of consistently weaponizing antisemitism against it's critics, including in the ICJ ruling." Ecco2kstan (talk) 23:12, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- The Weaponization of antisemitism page hyperlinked over "often done" has many sources to draw from regarding the accusations' consistency and nature.
- My main concern with the original text is that it's voiced as if it's an observation made by a Wikipedian. The benefit here is that the weaponization of antisemitism has a clearer consistency grounded outside of Wikipedia. Perhaps other ways to word this out include adding a time scale (increasingly accused since Oct. 7th) or specifying the critique (against critiques of their actions since Oct 7th).
- If a lead paragraph change is necessary, there may be reason to outline Israeli motives and conditions for the genocide, including Zionism and anti-Arab racism. Ecco2kstan (talk) 23:25, 13 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Ecco2kstan, how about: "The Israeli government rejected South Africa's allegations. Supporters of Israel say that accusing Israel of genocide is both antisemitic[11][12] and a form of Holocaust erasure[13], but others argue antisemitism shouldn't be exploited to shield Israel from such allegations.[14][15][16][17]".VR (Please ping on reply) 00:12, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not as familiar with the Holocaust erasure claims, but I'm happy with that reworking! If that weaponization of Holocaust denial detail isn't on the weaponization of antisemitism page already, it might be a worthwhile phenomenon incorporate if there's more citations you can find. I might look into it myself. Thanks! Ecco2kstan (talk) 03:10, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

- The text I originally wanted modified was changed to "Israel's supporters say that accusing Israel of genocide is antisemitic, but others argue antisemitism should not be exploited to shield Israel from such allegations" after other discussions on the talk page. I almost like it better, but by saying "Israel's supporters" it relieves some of the responsibility from the Israeli government in the accusations that was, to an extent, duly credited in the original modification. Maybe now, it should just say "The Israeli government and their supporters say that accusing the state for genocide antisemitic..." or something similar.

The 70% figure in both the primary and the secondary source refers to the deaths that were verified by the UN Human Rights Office, not the totality of deaths in Gaza.
Accordingly, the current phrasing "70% of Palestinian deaths in Gaza are women and children" is inaccurate and should be changed to "70% of the 8,119 verified deaths were women and children" Zlmark (talk) 06:10, 9 November 2024 (UTC)

I would like to request the addition of the following paragraph on Singapore’s support for a two-state solution under the section "International Positions on the Two-State Solution" in the Two-state solution article:
International Positions on the Two-State Solution
Singapore: Singapore supports a two-state solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, advocating for a negotiated outcome aligned with relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions. According to Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Singapore believes this approach allows Israelis and Palestinians to coexist peacefully and securely, considering it the only viable path toward a comprehensive, just, and lasting resolution. Singapore also consistently upholds the Palestinian right to a homeland. The PLO, which constitutes the key pillar of the current Palestinian Authority, accepts Israel's right to exist and has renounced terrorism.[1]

Gaza genocide - the 186,000 indirect deaths estimate
In the "Indirect" section, the following sentence should be added after "186,000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza":
Three days after the publication, one of the writers, Professor Martin McKee, clarified that the 186,000 figure was “purely illustrative”[1] and stated that “our piece has been greatly misquoted and misinterpreted.”[2]

I would like to request that a change be made for accuracy under the subhead Origin and spread: Other events. There is a reference to a photo of a man carrying two dead geese, but it is actually only one goose. Footnotes 54, 58, and 59 all state that there is one goose in the photo. Footnote 60 says two geese, but this is evidently a mistake on TMZ's part as the photo itself clearly shows only one goose.
I suggest that the wording "man carrying two dead Canada geese" be changed to "man carrying a dead Canada goose".
In the next sentence I suggest that the wording "The geese were roadkill" either be changed to "The goose was roadkill" or that this part of the sentence be eliminated since the only source for the goose being roadkill is the TMZ article which may be unreliable and perhaps should be removed as a reference? It's possible the official quoted by TMZ was referring to a different incident altogether involving two roadkill geese and TMZ mistakenly linked this to the Columbus photo.
Then I suggest in the following sentence the wording "stealing geese" be changed to "stealing a goose".
Also, I would like to suggest that the semi-protected status be lifted from the Talk page of this article. 2600:100A:B10A:4AA1:0:21:7E13:E301 (talk) 23:18, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

In the state results table, I would like to request that the columns labeled Margin and Margin swing be filled in, for those rows/states in which the relevant data has already been entered. Obviously not every state has data, but most do.

Hello,
In this article, the following section is problematic.
"On 9 or 10 October, Hamas offered to release all civilian hostages held in Gaza if Israel would call off its planned invasion of the Gaza Strip, but the Israeli government rejected the offer.[242]"
It needs to be taken out completely.
The original article is based on an interview in Times of Israel newspaper. In the interview, the interviewee mentions this as a side comment:
“We later found out that Hamas had offered on October 9 or 10 to release all the civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the Strip, but the government rejected the offer.”
There is no mention of how they found out, and this is pretty much the only "evidence" given in support of any offer from Hamas to release all civilian hostages. It is less than hearsay.
Thank you for listening.

I want it to be added somewhere that Kamala Harris, despite her loss, received about 74.5 million votes, surpassing Trump's vote count in 2020. She also received almost 10 million more votes than Hillary Clinton did in 2016, and received the 3rd highest vote count of any nominee in history, and the most for any woman in American political history.

The article references a Brookings poll[1] in its body under: Academic and legal discourse->Middle Eastern studies. The lead appears to misrepresent the information presented in the body.
In the lead, please change:
| − | + | According to a recent Middle East Scholar Barometer poll of 758 mostly US-based Middle East scholars, a majority of those respondents believe Israel's actions in Gaza were intended to make it uninhabitable for Palestinians, and 75% of them say Israel's actions in Gaza constitute either genocide or "major war crimes akin to genocide". |
The wording found in the article body: "A Brookings 23 May to 6 June 2024 survey asked 758 Middle East scholars and experts who study the issue, most in the United States: "How would you define Israel's current military actions in Gaza?" The responses were: "major war crimes akin to genocide", 41%; "genocide", 34%; "major war crimes but not akin to genocide", 16%; "unjustified actions but not major war crimes", 4%; "justified actions under the right to self-defense", 4%; and "I don't know", 2%."
One single poll is almost certainly undue for the lead of any article, but if it will stand, it should accurately reflect the source. Mikewem (talk) 21:27, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Change the Roblox Studio interface screenshot to an older one as the current one is from a beta release and is not what most users will encounter. Depreactedbrain (talk) 03:37, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Depreactedbrain: That would require an older interface's screenshot to be uploaded and compliant with WP:NFCC. Can you provide a link to one that already exists on Wikipedia? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v threads critiques 21:25, 28 November 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrolled
I would kindly like to submit a request for autopatrolled rights. I have created 50+ articles since 2017, which you will find listed on my user page here, none of which have been deleted nor have received any new page reviewers' comments in quite some time. I have also improved thousands more articles across Wikipedia. I am mainly interested in increasing the coverage of all things Brussels-related. Thanks in advance! Jason Lagos (talk) 17:42, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
I would like to request autopatrolled rights, as I have been creating and plan to create many articles on the lists of chemical compounds that are well cited and have historically had few issues. I have also created other articles on biography, video games, and other subjects, which I may unreview myself if there are any doubts towards their suitability to the encyclopedia; I am mainly asking for this right for the chemical articles. Reconrabbit 18:15, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
He created 5,728 articles so far, out of which only 25 have been deleted. Most of these articles are based on elections and politics. I believe granting autopatrolled rights would be a suitable recognition for this work. Baqi:) (talk) 15:27, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Extended confirmed
In the beginning of November my EC permissions have been revoked by User:ScottishFinnishRadish due to what he considered to be gaming, because of me doing a large number of minor edits requested as part of the CW Project. SFR said that he would not object to the restoration of my EC permissions once I made a few hundred more substantial edits. Since then I made over 350 edits, mainly on pages related to mathematics and food security, and I believe this should qualify me for restoration of extended-confirmed permissions. DancingOwl (talk) 17:57, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
I have been editing on Wikipedia for 2 years now and have been making frequent edits, and I wish to be granted Extended Confirmed to be able to work on the 2028 United States presidential election article, which I had benefited to until the restrictions were increased.

New page reviewer
Hello, I'm Memer15151! I've been actively working at Articles for Creation for the past month, and I believe am ready to start reviewing new articles in addition to AfC submissions. I'd love to help reduce the amount of unreviewed new articles. I am confident that I meet the guidelines for becoming a NPR. I have reviewed over 200 AfC submissions, created over 45 articles, and participated in over 20 AfD discussions. My account was created over one and a half years ago, and I have over 3,000 edits. One time, I did accept some AfC submissions by User:Tatar Russian (who was later confirmed a sockpuppet) that were deemed to be written by AI. I was unaware of this, although I was a bit unsure why the user created drafts so quickly (I assumed they were copied from a doc or something else that they were working on). Although in Cryllic, I was able to locate the books in the drafts, and all of the ones I checked were indeed existing works of literature. I am now aware that many of the sources in one of the drafts that another reviewer accepted consisted of hallucinated sources. I assumed good faith and accepted the drafts. From now on, I will make sure to check all works of literature to make sure they can be accessed online, and if not, get information from the draft's creator. I learned from this experience and I believe I am ready for the new role in the community. UserMemer (chat) Tribs 17:33, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
I believe this is the right time to apply for these rights. Over the past year, I have been highly active on Wikipedia. Currently, I am serving as an AFC reviewer, diligently contributing to the review process. In addition, I actively participate in AFD discussions with full commitment. I have a solid understanding of notability guidelines, reliable sources, and the principles related to biographies of living persons. So far, I have created over 90 articles.

Pending changes reviewer
I've read and understood WP:RPC and will proceed slowly at first (that is, leave what I deem edge cases to someone else). JayCubby Talk 17:23, 25 November 2024 (UTC)
I am seeing pending review on several pages I regularly edit. For example, Larry Ellison ReferenceMan (talk) 11:09, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
I want to help new non-autoconfirmed and unregistered editors find their way on Wikipedia. I figured this role is the best and easiest way to do that. Also, just to let you know: I applied for this position back when I had 30 edits but I have around 70 edits now. WikiEditor5678910 (talk) 16:35, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
I regularly check a variety of pages for editing issues and help fight vandalism. I also watch several pages, some of which have pending changes protection. I believe this would further help me fight vandalism. I’ve read and understand the guidelines for reviewing pending changes and am familiar with Wikipedia’s policies. Thanks for considering my request. ZyphorianNexus (talk) 01:24, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Rollback
Requesting rollback permission to combat the pervasive presence of vandalism and/or edits of unencyclopedic quality to the best of my ability. At the present moment I am a semi-retired user; however, I have been a regular patroller of recent changes to both specific pages as well as the site as a whole. I'd very much like to learn the counter-vandalism tool RedWarn and/or Ultraviolet and get involved to a greater extent across the site in keeping pages up to editors' standards - I intend to be a long-term contributor to the site and expect to be much more active in the future, predominantly in this line of work. I've familiarized myself with WP:VANDTYPES and have encountered and attempted thus far to manually revert instances of controversial edits at times - edits which it would be far more helpful to all parties to take care of via rollback. I'd particularly like to delve into new ways to spot the more subtle instances that go unnoticed for longer periods of time, per WP:SNEAKY, as well as monitor for violations of WP:TPV and continually make an effort to practice WP:WARNVAND, WP:HTSV, WP:NOTVANDALISM, WP:RVAN and WP:NORESVAND among others. My most notable effort to prevent escalated conflict(s) would be in the Talk:Wings_of_Fire_(novel_series)#February_2023_Content_Editing_Conflict, though I do not yet have a track record of notifying users when reverting their edits beyond discussions on article talk pages (though this is typically as the reverted editor has tended to initiate the conversations first). Furthermore, I intend to prioritize diligently monitoring sockfarm-targeted pages in addition watching out for recent changes. Please let me know if you'd like me to undergo training and/or further regulatory practice first - and thank you for your consideration of me for this responsibility. ^^ TheMysteriousShadeheart (talk) 19:32, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
I'm reapplying for rollback rights to continue supporting anti-vandalism efforts on Wikipedia after a misunderstanding that led to a false blocking and false accusations of violating WP:NOSHARE. I am committed to maintaining the integrity of articles and have prior experience using tools like Twinkle and Ultraviolet to tag and revert edits involving unnecessary soures or clear vandalism, often from IP address and new users. Having rollback rights would allow me to contribute more effectively by streamlining the process of reverting disruptive edits and vandalism. I understand the responsibility that comes with this permission and I am fully prepared to take accountability for any incorrect reverts. I will be greater caution moving forward and use any mistakes as learning opportunities. Royiswariii Talk! 06:53, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
I am here to reapply for Rollback permission. I used to be pretty active when it came to patrolling Recent Changes but due to some password mismanagement I accidentally got locked out my own account. I was previously rejected by User:Fastily (I wish them a happy retirement) who told me to be active in Recent changes for a month or so more before requesting rollback permissions again. It hasn't been exactly a month but I think I have done enough to prove that I won't use rollback perms to vandalise or otherwise disrupt Wikipedia. I'm requesting rollback perms to use tools like AntiVandal or Huggle and have thoroughly read Wikipedia:Rollback policy. Sangsangaplaz (Talk to me! I'm willing to help) 10:49, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
