As a rough guideline, administrators usually require editors to have made more than 500 useful non-botlike edits, and to have been active in the last thirty days. Patrollers and License reviewers don't have to request this flag. Find possible candidates.
I would like to overwrite on this file which contains obvious mistakes and could be improved in general. Since I'm active for approximatively 12 years with more than 500 edits, becoming autopatrolled would be easier. Could I? Thank you. Ddjahh (talk) 16:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to overwrite an image file on Commons in order to upload a partial restoration made by me of it. I know that, from 2019 circa to the first months of 2021, I edited pages and overwrote files without following the rules and for this I extend to the community my deepest excuses; now, I have grown up and I am conscientious about what I do here. Thank you very much in advance. Jilligate (talk) 16:06, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I asked for advice at WikiProject Maps on how to approach a map improvement project, and it was suggested that I request permission to overwrite files here. I don’t have nearly 500 edits on Commons, but I do have a 20-year history of 8,000 constructive edits on the English Wikipedia. I want to improve the maps of UN Security Council membership (one per year) in several ways: a) easily modifiable CSS styling instead of colouring dispersed throughout the files, b) consistent treatment of disputed territories in line with UN practice, c) consistent graphical details such as colours, borders and nominal size. For more details see my original request for advice. For work I’ve been doing recently to improve coverage of the United Nations, see this infobox template and this module I created (with documentation). (The template uses the maps I want to improve.)

I have been active on Commons for over two years now and have over 750 edits. I'd like to have the ability to override poor quality photos and files with better versions when appropriate. Thank you, and cheers from North Carolina! 🙂 Johnson524 (talk) 20:50, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I occasionally come across categories that could use diffusion, usually alongside my work on Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia (my home project). An example is Category:Light novels, which currently contains categories that would be a better fit for a "by title" category (already present) or files that would be better in a "Light novel logos" category, but that also have categories and files that require a manual overview to avoid miscategorization. I wish to not bother other users with such a task (due to the necessary manual overview), and I request access to AWB rights on Commons for these types of uncontroversial recategorizations. I am already somewhat familiar with using AWB on Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia, where I also mainly use it for recategorization. It is a tool I only occasionally use, and I don't expect it to be a tool of frequent use on Commons, either, but that would be useful nonetheless when using HotCat becomes a bit too tedious, as my time could be used more productively. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for your consideration! EdoAug (talk) 02:46, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As a rough guideline, administrators usually require editors to have made at least 1,000 useful, non-botlike edits or a large amount of justified renaming requests at Commons before they will consider granting the filemover right.
Hello, dear administrators. I am requesting to have the status of filemover in order to rename misspelled files as part of the "Wiki Loves Earth Photos. Indeed, these photos aretaken in Benin's national parks whose names are misspelled. I need to be filemover to put the correct names to the files" photography contest in Benin Thank you.

Hello to all administrators. I am mainly working on building a reliable wiki database of native plant species (wikipedia, wikispecies, wikimedia commons, wikidata). I often upload photos that capture important morphological traits of each plant species, and sometimes those species is correctly identified after uploading. New species are often discovered, especially in the orchid family, and reclassifications are often made. It is important for our purposes that the file name of the image represents the correct species name based on the latest classification. To facilitate the above editing process, I request "Filemover" privileges. Thank you. BeautifulMedia (talk) 05:59, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
