How to make a request

  1. First make sure you clicked the correct edit-link and you are actually requesting the right you want.
  2. Copy the following and append it to the text-area: 
    {{subst:rfr|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|2=reason}} Thank you. ~~~~
  3. Replace reason with a rationale based on the rollback guideline, renaming guideline or the patroller guideline.
  4. Press Publish changes.

Note

  • Please check back periodically so you can respond to any queries.
  • If your request has remained unanswered for several days, consider personally asking an administrator.
  • Administrators, please welcome users granted a new right with an appropriate message.
  • When requesting rights that need support by the community (e.g. administrator) please go to Commons:Requests and votes!

If you request the rollback-right, please read the how-to first.

Admins and anyone with global rollback don't need to request rollback. License reviewers don't have to request the patrol flag.

Sean9064[edit]

I'm a editor from Mandarin (Chinese) wiki, want to fix typo in the File:DHCP session en.svg file, just like what I did for File:DHCP_session.svg in 2021. Thank you. Sean9064 (talk) 02:31, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Sean9064: I've added the template to the file so you can now overwrite it. As far as your request for the autopatroller right, your edit count is too low right now. Abzeronow (talk) 16:02, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done Please come back later when you have demonstrated some more experience and made more edits than what is required. ─ Aafī (talk) 19:59, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Tintazul[edit]

I have started collaborating with Commons in 2017. I now have over 4,000 edits, including over 1,000 photos uploaded. I'm requesting Autopilot privileges because I was trying to upload a less saturated version of Image:Big_cat_is_big_(52132560303).jpg (which looks really icky! that's a terrible job on a great photo) and it would be good to be able to do so without having to request for specific photo permission. Thank you. – Tintazul talk 08:32, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ArtSmir[edit]

I just want to get auto patrol status. It would be interesting to try new features. I am confident that my experience allows me to obtain these rights. Thank you. ArtSmir (talk) 23:29, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DaxServerEverywhere[edit]

Please attach autopatrol rights to this alt account. I require it to overwrite files where applicable (like File:Newsclick-logo.svg). My main account DaxServer (talk · contributions · Statistics · Recent activity · block log · User rights log · uploads · Global account information) already has it. Thank you.

SiMon[edit]

I would like to upload able to upload higher resolution versions of existing files. I have repeatedly seen low-res images and found out that higher resolution versions were available at the stated source. Thank you. SiMon (talk) 18:17, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dactylantha[edit]

I would like to apply a deletion notice in bulk to a category of images that I am appealing to be removed due to incorrect copyright status - Category:Images_from_Auckland_Museum_marked_with_cultural_permissions as per my request at Commons:Deletion_requests/Category:Images_from_Auckland_Museum_marked_with_cultural_permissions. There are ~2500 images requiring this notice as per the deletion request requirements, and OpenRefine seems untenable as a batch editing option as the reconciliation service currently has a bug that has stopped me from doing any editing to that category. Of course, if there is an alternative to AutoWikiBrowser I would be happy to hear it - anything is better than copy and pasting 2500 times! Thank you. Dactylantha (talk) 01:47, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Dactylantha, you could request that job to be done on Commons:Bots/Work requests. --Achim55 (talk) 18:31, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TechnoSquirrel69[edit]

I'm requesting rollback rights to assist with the increasing amount of counter-vandalism I'm doing on this project. I have several months of experience with the tool on the English Wikipedia and a few more doing cross-wiki counter-vandalism work. I have read the rollback guideline and will follow it in good faith to the best of my ability. Let me know if you have any questions! (please ping me on reply, thanks!) —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 06:13, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Militum professio scriniarii[edit]

As a military archivist, I regularly see many files incorrectly named - ranging from basic typos, incorrect military units or terminology - right through to the obviously meaningless or ambiguous names. I have made a significant number of rename requests, and to the best of my knowledge, have never had a rename request rejected. However, I am aware that I might sometimes overload current filemovers (I sometimes see backlogs), so I would be happy to take on the role myself. Thank you. Militum professio scriniarii (talk) 11:12, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Wait I just declined several renaming requests, they were not completely wrong but not fully appropriate either. This person is probably a good candidate but I feel it's a bit too early. Cheers, VIGNERON (talk) 12:17, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Svenskbygderna[edit]

I am requesting Filemover status on Commons. I have made over 1,500 edits on Commons and 2,000 on Wikipedia. I am an experienced editor and have a good understanding of Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. I would like to be able to move files to correct names and to help with file maintenance tasks. Specifically, I am wanting to rename a lot of Minnesota map files to have a consistent naming scheme. Thank you. Svenskbygderna (talk) 15:59, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see any recent renaming requests. (I also will note that I just granted you the autopatroller right). So you might want to show the need for the file moving tool. Abzeronow (talk) 17:44, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the response. I have just demonstrated in my recent naming requests what I intend to use this renaming right for. Svenskbygderna (talk) 20:33, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hehua[edit]

Hello, I plan to use this right to move the meaningless files in cat:Harbin. I made over 1000 edits in commons and I was a filemover in zhwiki before it canceled this right. Thank you. Hehua (talk) 15:38, 12 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Abzeronow Could you deal with my request? Thank you. Hehua (talk) 02:49, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't usually make decisions on filemover requests (since I have less familiarity with that). I'm not seeing any recent renaming requests here on Commons. I'll wait a little longer (at least a few more days) to see if anyone else weighs in. Abzeronow (talk) 18:15, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thank you. Hehua (talk) 03:54, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
