I've had the Page mover right for almost 2 months now, and have found it extremely helpful. I've used it to draftify articles, close RM discussions, perform requests at WP:RMTR and help with other associated tasks. It expires in 10 days, and I would like to request that this is extended indefinitely. Thanks, echidnaLives - talk - edits 02:38, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

Occasionally I patrol the pages feed and draftify in order to avoid clogging up NPP with detrimental, non-notable entries or those with minimal content and not yet ready for mainspace. This right would allow the elimination of the tedious step of tagging every mainspace draft redirect with R2, improving productivity by a great bunch. Thanks! Silikonz💬 01:04, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- Given that all of your activity in this area appears to be within the last 10 days (and at least a few of the short set of draftifications have been reversed), I would like to see more experience before fulfilling this request. I will leave the request open for a second set of eyes, however. Dekimasuよ! 03:29, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Dekimasu, some of the articles moved back to mainspace have been noticeably improved, from an absence of sources to meaningful content (e.g. Gou Tanabe). After all, draftification encourages content creation. Thanks. Silikonz💬 04:36, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
- Silikonz, if the only reason you need this permission is that R2 tagging is too tedious, you can just use User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft, which will draftify the article and tag the redirect for you automagically. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 05:01, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
- If possible, I'd wish to avoid userscripts when a native function exists already (please see main's rollback request). Page loading is slow for me when viewing diffs for example, because of my problematic internet connection and computer. In addition, tagging would create more work for admin patrollers in the R2 category.
- I'd also like to help out in WP:RMT, though. I've read the pertaining policies and guidelines to those as well. Thanks for the consideration. Silikonz (alt)💬 17:12, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
