I would like to request the patroller user right in order to help in countervandalism work. I am currently a global rollbacker (verify), and I already hold patroller permissions on bswiki (verify), enwiki (verify) and commons (verify). Thanks in advance. Ruy Pugliesi^◥ 22:39, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a little hesitant to give the tool right now, as I don't see any articles created here. We give out rollback easily to people with the tool on other wikis because the rules are generally the same x-wiki, but when you get into creating articles in different languages or forms, it gets a little more tricky. I would personally like to see some experience in writing simple English articles before granting the tool, however I'm not going to mark this as not done, and we can wait for a second opinion. Thanks. --Gordonrox24 | ^Talk 22:48, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I know that. However, this permission has already been granted to users without any articles created here (global rollbackers). I think it would be quit useful to have patroller right, because this permission would allow me to mark others' edits as patrolled while I'm monitoring RecentChanges. Ruy Pugliesi^◥ 22:55, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Gordon here. ~~I've seen use of rollback that was against policy so not happy to give out another tool yet.~~ fr33k man 22:59, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've used Twinkle in this diff, not rollback feature. Ruy Pugliesi^◥ 23:05, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't matter which tool was used but that you could only see the edit as vandalism. fr33k man 00:01, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry... I don't understand. I saw the edit as it was: a vandalism. Could you define this (or even this) in another way? Anyway, I didn't use rollback feature, although it was suitable for that. Ruy Pugliesi^◥ 01:33, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, I failed to check. You are correct. fr33k man 01:56, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ruy, as far as I know, we don't mark edits as patrolled here (unlike meta and some other wikis, that feature is not enabled here) with this flag. The flag is for marking new pages patrolled after seeing that they have the correct format and getting one's own page creations patrolled. I don't know why the flag has been given to people who do not create good quality articles because that is not what the right was created for. NotImportant 06:53, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NotImportant, I've just thought this flag was purposed for marking others' edits as patrolled, as it occurs on enwiki and some other wikis, where I already have such permission. I didn't know that. In this case, it wouldn't be suitable for me, I guess. Sorry for that. You can close this request. Ruy Pugliesi^◥ 14:18, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Suggest that this isn't done. Other than the fact I have concerns about how this account is operating, all of the articles created have needed a significant amount of work doing to them, though frankly I've given up because we shouldn't be automating article creation anyway. Effectively hiding these edits from patrollers would be a bad thing. Gob lin 19:00, 5 May 2011 (UTC) I ♥ Juliancolton![reply]

Agree with Bluegoblin7. In my opinion, automating article creation is usually a bad idea, and it is better if users review the article creations to fix the formatting etc. NotImportant (talk) 08:38, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - How I hate automatic article creation. Simply importing stuff from enwiki and then making one edit to "try" to simplify it usually doesn't work. Any edit here should be checked. -Barras (talk) 08:41, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm working on a couple projects right now on economic development, international relations, and the Arab World Protests. I'm an English teacher, with a fairly good idea how to simplify techincal language. Since I've decided it's easier to do a lot of little edits than a few large ones (which I usually do on the English Wikipedia), I thought it might help if I were autopatrolled. I'd also be happy to watch for vandalism sometimes. --Quintucket (talk) 13:45, 18 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I am requesting patroller rights because as you will be able to see, the pages I have created are filled with reliable and trustworthy information.

Not done While the articles you have created are of good quality, I think that you need more experience in article creation and antivandalism for this right.

I've not been very active of late, so am probably not completely up to date, however I would feel a little uncomfortable granting this tool. I only see 10 new page creations here on simple, and I would personally like to see quite a few more before giving this tool. I won't deny this request though, and look forward to seeing what another admin has to say.--Gordonrox24 | ^Talk 19:58, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. The articles you have created have been barely translated. Copying and pasting an entire article from the English Wikipedia and changing a few words here and there is not a translation. Slapping a complex tag on the top of it doesn't make things any better either. I just removed the bulk of your most recent creation Structural isomer, since there wasn't so much as a punctuation mark of difference to the version found on the English Wikipedia. You've created 43 articles and you've not given attribution to the original authors of any of them, even though it was the first thing that was asked of you when you started here. So actually most, if not all, of your page creations here are copyright violations. Please try and get the hang of things first before requesting permissions—particularly this one; it looks like for the moment, your edits will definitely need patrolling.

Thank you for creating articles here. Unfortunately, I cannot grant you this flag at the moment because you have created very few articles (only four) and those too did not follow our manual of style (for instance, they were uncategorized, had two stub tags, used incorrect headings for references).

I'm not really active here in simplewiki, but I'm sometimes in the countervandalism IRC-channel #cvn-simplewikis. Thus I can see the recent changes of the Simple English Wikipedia. There are sometimes new articles, which I could patrol with the patroller permissions. So assign me to the Patroller user group, please. Regards, Vogone (talk) 18:57, 22 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ideally we need to see some page creations first... This wiki combines the permission patroller with autopatrolled - so by giving you the permission to patrol other users' edits, it also means yours are automatically marked as patrolled. Osiris (talk) 02:21, 25 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You're right. --Vogone (talk) 18:08, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's not the problem that your created pages are marked as patrolled automatically. (That would make no sense) It is that here on SEWP only active editors should have the patroller right.

I don't doubt your experience in other wikis, but I don't see any real need for this here.

"How to right in simple english is known to me"? I'm sorry, but that sentence is not simple. It isn't even proper English. I'd feel better if patrollers had good English skills so they could better tell what was vandalism. --Auntof6 (talk) 23:08, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Many of your articles are lists with near zero prose, so I did not include them while considering this request. Some of your articles lacked categories, stub tags etc., others were unreferenced BLPs, some were directly copied from enwiki without attribution. I also agree with Auntof6 that patrollers should have good English skills as it is required to create articles that do not need extensive further editing (to make them readable) and to judge whether a page should be tagged for deletion or not. Therefore, I think it is better you edit a bit more before getting this right. Pmlineditor (t · c · l) 23:30, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Steven. Could you please ask again later, once you've created a fair amount of new pages? At the moment you don't meet the requirements. Thanks. Osiris (talk) 03:56, 30 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. What constitutes "meets the requirements", though? There does not appear to be a fixed requirement, and I have a fair history between here and en (which I appreciate is a different project, but I do have a clean record). StevenJ81 (talk) 01:28, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A good amount of new articles. "Administrators can grant this right at their discretion to trusted users who regularly create articles and have demonstrated they are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines". I patrol NewPages pretty much every day, and I sometimes assign the flag automatically to users who consistently appear next to articles that don't need any fixing. Osiris (talk) 09:59, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. Just so you know: I wanted the flag as much to help patrol as for any creations I might make myself. Truth tell, I suspect that most of my work here for a while is going to be in filling out stub articles on important Judaism topics. These won't actually show up on new page lists. I may take the liberty of bringing major edits on current pages to your attention periodically so you can judge my work. StevenJ81 (talk) 14:39, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We don't actually patrol here like on en.wiki. Some people do do it like Osiris but we mostly just use this flag so that peoples page creations are marked as good automatically so generally we want to see a fair number of article creations before we hand it out. -DJSasso (talk) 18:39, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not to comment on this request, but people do patrol here. There are quite a few editors who check the new pages (and not just articles) looking for vandalism and other issues. That amounts to patrolling, even though not all those editors have the patroller right. To say we don't really patrol here is to discourage people from doing this this worthwhile task. --Auntof6 (talk) 21:39, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think Djsasso means that when people check over a new page they don't actually use the flag to mark the pages as patrolled, and that the flag is used more for having one's own pages marked automatically (autopatrol) than for marking the pages of others (patrol). How accurate that is you can see for yourself on Special:Log/patrol: the items with the word "automatically" is the autopatrol part of the flag being used (i.e., a page being created by a patroller), and the items without the word "automatically" is patrollers clicking the button on a page created by somebody without the patroller flag. The item for Poolesville high school is an example of what Djsasso is referring to -- Creol was the one to fix up the page, but it wasn't marked as patrolled until I marked it the next day. On the other hand, the item for Struga is an example of a patroller (Gotanda) marking a page patrolled as they're fixing it up. Osiris (talk) 22:51, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm finding this discussion interesting, my "candidacy" notwithstanding. There is a reason that enwiki does things the way it does, and at the same time there is a reason that we don't (usually) need to do things the same way here. I fully get that. I think some of this should be incorporated into a page about new page patrol here at simple so that people understand the differences.

As for me, I'll just sit tight until/unless you think I've created a sufficient number of new pages. I doubt you'll ever find me "irresponsible" about things, but I'll be the first to admit that I continue to seek guidance on the workings of this wiki—including, for example, keeping my English simple.StevenJ81 (talk) 01:24, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done This is really meant for people who create alot of articles of known good quality so that they don't show up as unpatrolled. We don't actually patrol persay like they do on enwiki. Would prefer to give it out once you have a history of creating pages in simple English. Generally an admin will give it to you automatically when they have noticed your name in the new pages a lot next to articles that don't need fixing. -DJSasso (talk) 18:37, 30 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There isn't actually a backlog at the moment. There are always new pages that need fixing up, but you don't need patroller access to be able to do it. It'd be better if you had a bit more experience with either article creation or new-page patrolling before you requested access.

Part of what goes along with the patroller right is that articles you create are automatically patrolled. I don't think that's appropriate yet.

I am inclined to think that the manner of your request shows that you do not yet know enough about this wiki. You don't know why you have a red userpage? We are quite slow to give patrolling rights, possibly because our wiki is so very different to En wiki. To be effective in that role a person must really know our wiki.

I'm not going to say yes or no, because I'm borderline on your case. I will say that the very few articles you have created (actual articles, not redirects or dab pages) were minimal stubs, some of which needed some work. That's not really enough to show that your articles would be in good shape. Whether or not your request is approved, I would recommend that you work on understanding how to fully categorize articles, because that's one thing I saw others doing with the articles you created. I'd be glad to help you learn about that if you want. --Auntof6 (talk) 18:35, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not done I'm glad you read the guidelines and the write-up I did, but you still haven't been here very long nor made many edits. Two weeks additional experience isn't long enough when you make so few edits. You've only been editing here since March 21. You've made fewer than 40 edits, not nearly enough to show us that you understand how things are done here. Not only that, but only eleven of those have been to articles; of those, only 1 appears to have been an attempt to undo vandalism, but in fact it restored vandalism to the page. Your English Wikipedia record doesn't look very extensive, either: you've been editing there only since March 19. As I said before, take time to get to know how things are done here. Make constructive edits to articles, edits that don't get reverted as most of yours have been. If you see something you think needs doing, try running it by someone first to be sure it won't cause a problem. I would say wait at least a month before asking again, but that might not be long enough if you aren't making constructive edits. --Auntof6 (talk) 04:49, 2 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-admin comment). Music1201 It is not necessary to have the patroller right to fight vandalism or to write good articles. When other editors create new pages, they show up in the recent changes log (which you can review). Check the page over the same way you would if you had the patroller right.

I would like to try this patrolling. —Neotarf (talk) 01:59, 29 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why? What do you think the job of patrolling includes? --Auntof6 (talk) 02:22, 29 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, sorry to be away for so long. I wanted to find out what it is about. It was because of a conversation I had with a patroller on my talk page. I would imagine it involves looking at new pages and checking for vandalism. —Neotarf (talk) 21:25, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No disrespect intended, but if you have to "imagine" what it involves, you A) haven't checked what you're applying for, and B) clearly do not need it. You don't apply for something first and then figure out what to do with it once you have it, that's like buying a car before realising you can't drive. I'm not an admin, but I'd give this a "no". DaneGeld (talk) 21:35, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I see that English is not your first language, so you might want to check the meaning of "imagine" in a learner's dictionary. It is not realistic to expect users to have already used the permissions before requesting them. —Neotarf (talk) 21:52, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You are absolutely correct - English is not my first language, that would be Danish. You do not understand what the permission you are requesting is for, and you have to guess - which by any stretch of the mind, is what you are doing, then you need to read the pages about patrolling to learn about it. I wasn't saying you need to have used it before you get it - that's just plain stupid! What you are doing is asking for tools before you know fully what they're for. I recommend you follow the instructions at the top of this page, and read Wikipedia:Patrollers, which tells you about what you're applying for and what it is used for. DaneGeld (talk) 22:20, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your advice. Try definition 1b of "imagine": "to form a picture or idea in your mind of (something that is not real or present)" or definition 3: "to think or believe (something)". It does not mean I am guessing--I have been following NPP and AFD discussions on and off for quite some time--it is a polite phrase only. —Neotarf (talk) 23:54, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@DaneGeld: Please leave it to the admins to determine whether to grant rights. No good can come from one editor bashing another like this, and the community does not vote on these requests. --Auntof6 (talk) 19:07, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have this permission on the main English Wikipedia and plan to patrol the New Pages feed here as well. Power~enwiki (talk) 18:40, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Not done at this time. You have been here only a short time. I'd prefer that you first demonstrate that you understand the requirements here, some of which are not intuitive to people used to working on enwiki. Also, with the patrol right, your own creations do not need to be patrolled, and looking at a couple of articles you created, they do need patrolling. Spend some more time here and get familiar with the requirements of simplewiki before asking for this right. --Auntof6 (talk) 18:58, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Those are two separate rights on en.wiki, and I agree that I don't want auto-patrolled at this time. Is there any way I can see the list of un-patrolled pages without the right? Power~enwiki (talk) 20:15, 26 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Not yet. For about a year of the user's time here, they were under an indefinite block. That time can't be counted as experience. The new articles mentioned were all about railway stations. When you find a format that works for a particular topic, it's easy to produce multiple articles based on it; that's not a good test of how much patrolling a user's articles need.

MyPeople76 (talk · contribs · count) (assign permissions)

Hello, I am not sure if this is too early a request to make but I would like to be granted the new article patroller rights. I have seen most recently created articles on here are not checked as soon as they are created. Hence I spend most of the time making corrections to these articles as mostly, some, do not even have any single sources and also put on QD articles i feel should not be on this Wikipedia. I have been active since joining and I want to continue to improve this wiki. I have also made contributions of about 700 and created about 50 new articles in the time I have been here. I feel, as an editor, I should exercise good judgement before making any decision to either put an article on QD or improve it. I have tried my level best to exercise that judgement and where I made mistakes, I went back to revert my mistake. Therefore, I feel I can play an integral role in the improvement of this wiki in terms of simplifying articles, puting sources to articles, putting tags on appropriate spaces and making QD and RfD requests on articles. Regards MyPeople76 (talk) 19:50, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not done First, no one expects or even wants new articles to be patrolled immediately. We've had complaints about patrollers adding qd or maintenance tags too soon because the article creators were still working on the articles.

But the main reason I'm denying is related to the fact that when you have the patroller right, your own articles don't show as needing to be patrolled. The articles you have created have mostly needed some work. That shows not only that your articles need to be patrolled, but that you might not be able to judge whether someone else's article needs work. Patrolling isn't just clicking the link, it's evaluating what shortcomings an article has and deciding whether to tag, request deletion, or fix it yourself. --Auntof6 (talk) 20:51, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Not done You haven't actively edited in about 4 months. The patroller user group would mean that your edits and pages are not marked in RC or Special:NewPages as needing to be patrolled, and reduces the chance of other editors taking a look at it to improve the article. I do not think you are ready for this yet, and you also don't have much experience in patrolling new pages.

. On several wiki, I usually mark the pages "patrolled". It's easier than going back to already controlled pages. Thank you in advance. Cordially. --Eihel (talk) 15:03, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Part of having the patroller right is that pages you create are automatically marked as patrolled. All the articles you have created have been deleted, which says that your work does need patrolling. --Auntof6 (talk) 16:42, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Auntof6: I didn't create any article on simplewiki, I only created Talk Pages. As you can see on this link, none of my editions have been deleted. So my work doesn't need to be patrolled and the right is not very powerful. Looking forward

. --Eihel (talk) 20:24, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently the display of deleted contributions now displays edits that were not page creations, so I was seeing things that were deleted after you edited them (such as adding QD requests). So you're right that you haven't created articles here: sorry for my mistake. However, not having created articles is an issue in a patroller request. I'd still want to see you create articles so that I could see whether they need patrolling. So the answer is still

Not done. --Auntof6 (talk) 20:54, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have to be editor if I want to be a patroller !? Doubt lives in me. --Eihel (talk) 21:13, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

We need to know that your own creations here wouldn't need patrolling. The way we do that is by looking at articles you create. --Auntof6 (talk) 00:30, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, in order to be a patroller you have to create articles, that is the most important aspect of being a patroller because you have to be able to show you that you know how articles need to be created as patrollers have their own articles auto-patrolled. -DJSasso (talk) 11:48, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the articles I create come from edit conflicts on articles awaiting quick deletion. If something's notable, but a user has just written one line on it, I'll try and flesh it out instead of letting it get deleted. Examples include Bruno Latour, Pass the Dutchie and ITV Encore. Even if a new page isn't yet tagged for speedy deletion, I'll try and improve it as much as possible, such as on Plastic waste and Charging Bull. I also create a fair few user talk pages by either welcoming or warning users encountered by recent change patrolling and Special:NewPages still marks these as awaiting patrol (despite user talk pages usually being no-indexed by default). On English Wikipedia I hold both the new page patroller and autopatrolled user permissions (which are bundled into +patrol on Simple), so I would like to get involved in patrolling pages made by others as well.

I haven't had the chance to look through your edits yet but have you created many pages here yet? We use the patroller tag here somewhat differently than en.wiki. It has the same functions as en.wiki but for us the main purpose is to auto mark peoples creations as patrolled so others don't have to patrol them. As such we tend not to give it out until we can see editors know how to write in Simple English and create articles here to our structure as opposed to how en.wiki does it. I only ask because I hadn't yet seen you create any pages but I haven't had the time to look through your edits yet to find some examples. So this isn't a comment one way or the other about your request. (and I know I just imported a bunch for you to simplify so I know you intend to) -DJSasso (talk) 11:37, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To be simple, the patroller here comes with autopatrol while en doesn't have, so it's best you can list some of your articles to see can it be autopatrolled. Reliable user for sure IMO. --Cohaf (talk) 13:09, 28 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. About a week ago or so I filed a request, I then withdrew the request later, because I wanted to get a final grasp of "patrolling" and editing/tagging the pages at Special:NewPages. After that I made 2 more articles Lawson (store) and FamilyMart, just for final practice on content creation to make me 100% solid in this area. I am requesting this right to help out at Special:NewPages and for my articles to be marked as patrolled, reducing workload for the patrollers. I have acknowledged and resolved the Issues that Auntof6 mentioned at my first request. I have fully read WP:Patroller and understand how to use this right. I will not abuse it.

Could you remind me what issues I mentioned before?

Auntof6 "That they (my articles) needed patrolling for various reasons... On this wiki patroller includes auto-patrolled" you also said 'looking at your recent articles they needed patrolling for various reasons" that was when I first starting making articles, with no experience, I had requested too soon and was not ready yet, but now approximately 1 year and 30 articles later, I have matured and improved a lot in article creation.

Thegooduser I reviewed the articles you've written recently and do see improvement. Before I do anything further, I'm curious: If you find a new article that was created, but was badly made, would you request deletion or fix it? Operator873^talkconnect 16:39, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Operator873, Hello and thanks for taking time to review my request! To answer your question, if I see a article that was badly made, it depends on the content. Normally If the article had content about,say, an actor, and contained some references, but weren't the best reliable sources, I'd usually do a google search to check for good reliable sources, then try to add them in, and fix up the article to make it neutral, and within Wikipedia guidelines, now if, I cannot find reliable sources, on a google search, I will then nominate it for a discussion at rfd. Bringing you to the other case, quick deletion. If the article were extremely promotional, or written like a resume, or an attack page, then I will have to nominate it for qd. If a newly created article, has a good sentence or two that has meaning/ good context, I try my best to fix the article before tagging it for RFD or QD. I also do a quick earwigs copyvio check on every new article I see created, if it is a copyvio, I tag it for QD as a copyvio. Thanks. --Thegooduser Let's Talk! :) 🍁 20:07, 25 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I am making a second request for patroller after my first about a month ago. Since then I have created quite a few articles, probably close to 100. Not all of them are stubs, and the bulk of them relate to languages and more recently roads. I have created about 200 articles since I started editing here in 2017. I also have an old account, WikiImprovment78. I feel I have a good understanding of how an article should look and how to simplify. I don't believe any of the articles I have created were complex or not wikified.

My previous request can be seen here. My reasoning has not changed since then. I have created around 250 articles and I don't feel there is need for my articles to be patrolled. I also clean up new articles and it could be useful if I could mark them as patrolled.

I have been tagging articles for improvement for some time now. The last issues I had with other editors were in 2017. I want patroller rights so that I can actually review new articles, not just tag them for improvement. Thank you. ~Prahlad balaji (t / c) 23:51, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator observation) Most of these "improvements" are just adding no sources to a one sentence stub, which in my opinion is not helpful and should be avoided. Also, patroller is for marking articles as patrolled, which should have a history of improving articles. This would be demonstrated by adding sources to the articles, not tagging for them to be added. Naleksuh (talk) 23:57, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I've been active on Simple for several months now. As of today I've created 168 articles and the only deletion was an immediate recreation. I think patroller rights would save everyone some time because the pages would not need to be marked as patrolled. I would also like to try my hand at patrolling, but I have not already done so. Only a few of these articles are translations; I wrote most from scratch for Simple. I feel Alberto Santos-Dumont and the individual species articles in Nyctimystes are good examples. I believe the Wikieditors most qualified to comment on this request are @Djsasso: and @Gay Yong Hernandez: because they often edit the articles I've started.

Not done I looked at some of the articles you've created. The biographical articles I checked don't appear to me to meet notability requirements. Since the patroller right here includes autopatrol, and the articles you've created need patrolling, giving the patroller right would not be appropriate right now. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:37, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, thanks, but all the articles I've made are from enwiki and they meet the criteria of notability there. Saroj Uprety (talk) 03:12, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Saroj Uprety: Two comments about that:

First, the enwiki articles may show notability, but the articles here don't have everything that enwiki has. You may have removed the part(s) of the articles that show notability. To show notability, the article has to state something that makes the subject notable and support it with a reliable source. As an example of this, Shirley Setia says only "Shirley Setia is a singer and actress from Auckland." Being a singer and actress is not notable by itself. Carter Cruise also doesn't state anything that indicates notability.
To use one of the same articles as an example, the enwiki article on Shirley Setia has a notability tag on it, so it may not meet the criteria there, either.

I didn't check all your articles, but those two are of concern. --Auntof6 (talk) 07:39, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I am unable to get a sense of that looking at your articles. -Djsasso (talk) 16:31, 1 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(Non-administrator observation). See @ShadowBallX:, for getting patrolling rights, you have to simplify the articles as well during or after creating it, as stated by Djsasso.

(Non-administrator observation) @TTP1233: I think ShadowBallX's articles were simple and good.

oh and with "only 110+" articles being created, it is worth noting that Darkfrog24 created 168 articles at patroller request, which is not too far off, so I think ShadowBallX could get the patroller right in the future. --Belwine • 💬 • 📜 08:35, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Correct! Still most of the users never get this right either of two reason. 1. User edited less that 3 months. 2. Article simplication is failed.DJRC (talk) 08:50, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Theirs were also mostly longer articles (ie picked at random from articles created back then Common mist frog). Single sentence articles do not really show that you understand writing Simple English with simple sentence structure etc if you are only using a single sentence. Remember the main purpose on this wiki of the patroller flag is not to patrol articles but to have your articles marked autopatrolled. Single sentence stubs most definitely still need to be patrolled. -Djsasso (talk) 14:39, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Sorry, PDL, but not yet. I don't see much page creation since I removed the right, so there isn't much for me to go on. Of what there is, the two articles you created recently had only redlinked categories copied from enwiki, until I recategorized them. It's good that you didn't create the categories, but the articles were left with no live categories. I also see that some templates you created had either no categories or redlinked categories, so the same issue exists with those. --Auntof6 (talk) 11:57, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Auntof6 I admit I do not know a lot about the categories, and I thought we had a master list that I can get to (maybe you can send me that). I did not know templates had to be categorized. I thought it was just articles. But yeah if I can get that list instead of just randomly typing things into hotcat that would help me.

There isn't really a master list, you would have to search up the appropriate categories for the page when you create a page.

Was about to come here and say the same. Patroller requires many many many articles created and not just stubs. And they should be of the quality that they don't need patrolling and that show you understand how to write a bunch of Simple English. Patroller is intended for very long time editors who have a big history of content creation.

As Ferien tried to explain to you above this flag is different here than on other wikis. The main purpose of our patroller tag is different from other wiki's. We don't use the patrolling part as actively as other wikis, rather that is mostly done by admins and the few patrollers we have. Our patroller flag auto marks any pages created by people who have the flag as patrolled unlike other wikis. As such people such as yourself who have little to no page creations would have their pages automatically marked as patrolled when they should not be. The flag here is used more to lessen the work load on admins by marking experienced editors creations as patrolled automatically than it is to have other editors patrol. -Djsasso (talk) 18:33, 28 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The patroller flag isn't just about vandalism fighting, its about making sure the content itself is good and with the patroller flag your own content would be automatically marked patrolled.

@BRPever: There's no doubt MathXplore is really helpful here, but I noticed a majority of the articles they patrolled shouldn't have been and they last created an article (not including disambiguations, moves and redirects) in February 2021. Disambiguations could count as articles if you wanted them to, but they don't really show editors understand how to create a simple page or categorise correctly etc. because a lot of the time, the disambiguation pages can just be very similar to enwiki with little to no changes needed in copying. Maybe I'm being too harsh here, but I think, at this time, MathXplore should get a little bit more experience patrolling and creating new pages before getting the patroller right. --Ferien (talk) 17:00, 3 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

┌────────────────┘
@MathXplore:My concern is the state of the page here after you'd patrolled it and even added Categories.

The key is to only mark those page that you are sure about and skip those that you are uncertain about to others so that someone else can review them. Please work on the concerns @Ferien pointed out. Thanks you :) --BRP^ever 05:14, 4 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Derpdart56: Why do you want this right? If you plan to patrol, how would you decide whether to mark a page as patrolled? -- Auntof6 (talk) 19:16, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would mark a page as patrolled when it looks good enough, and I want this right to help with determining quality. Derpdart56 (talk) 20:40, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Almost nothing has changed since the last request unfortunately, only one new article has been created as well as some redirects and for patroller, we are looking at writing articles instead of redirects. --Ferien (talk) 20:58, 5 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Request 1 last year was declined because the articles you created were all stubs that had issues that had to be corrected by patrollers. Request 2 was declined because you had only created one article and had not shown sufficient experience in article creation. It appears we are once again in the same situation. To quote the patroller policy, we give patroller rights to.. "trusted users who regularly create articles and have demonstrated they are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines". As has been shown, you are not currently regularly creating articles and the articles you have created do not show that you understand our article policies and guidelines. I strongly encourage you to focus on article creation and not request patroller again till you can show all this. I appreciate all the work you do on the wiki, and this is not meant as a criticism, you just don't meet the standards at this time. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

I have written many articles, deleted many articles, and in general know what an article should look like. I have numerous satisfactory creations, both from research done online and other language translations. I have read the corresponding guidelines, essays and whatnot and I believe that I would be a good and helpful candidate and contributor. A few months ago, Eptalon gave me this permission, saying "edits look unproblematic." He decided to remove the position about a half an hour later, however, for something along the lines of not being experienced enough. I have come back to ask for these permissions now that I believe that I have significantly more experience. Thank you, MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 21:01, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deferring to others on this one as I wasn't involved in the original discussion and my specialty is not in content creation. That being said, I should note that after a review of your recent creations, I note that you may want to read the attribution policy and ensure that all enWP-based articles have a permanent link, either via TP or in edit summary, to the enWP version that you pulled from. In addition, I've noticed several instances where articles you have created have not been categorised or had red-link categories that had to be replaced by others. Also, lastly, I noticed that Djsasso had to come along and remove short descriptions (which are not supported on this project) from created articles. I don't expect perfection, but patrollers are the people the project trusts to check off articles, and categorisation is the first thing to check on Auntof6's patrol guide. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. Griff (talk) 06:43, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I will work on the categories and attributions things. I have worked on the short descriptions since, I didn't know the rules and whatnot about that at first but started removing them since. Thank you, though for the critique. MrMeAndMrMe_{Let's talk} 21:14, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. There's been lots of great article work but it seems your articles still need patrolling - for example in the article you created just after that comment, you still added a short description (although I get it can be habit just adding it from enwiki), and some copyediting and category work was needed. I'm sure your content creation work will get better the more articles and you've managed the most difficult part - simplifying the content - so as long as these issues have been resolved within a couple of months and you keep on creating good articles, I see no reason why you shouldn't get patroller in the future. Thanks for volunteering and happy editing :) --Ferien (talk) 19:40, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Haoreima

Haoreima (talk · contribs · count) (assign permissions)

Hello admins! I want to request you to grant me the patroller user rights. I have been editing Simple English wikipedia for more than one year. I am familiar with the wikipedia policy and guidelines now. I have 17,000 plus edits and 700+ articles created here (most of which are the first creations of Simple English wiki, I mean those we're not there in Regular English Wikipedia before). Simultaneously, I am editing Regular English Wikipedia, Meitei wikipedia as well as Fiji Hindi wikipedia, creating lots of articles. To be honest, in the past, sometimes, I created poorly sourced articles but I have updated and developed them into well sourced articles now. And in some cases, I developed Simple English Wikipedia articles much much better than Regular English Wikipedia articles. One example was Panthoibi (well! I have developed the Regular English equivalent article later too, you can see by checking the edit history of both the articles). Loktak Folklore Museum, one of the articles I created here (first time creation, I mean "not copied" from Regular English Wikipedia), was selected for the Wikipedia translation of the week: 2022-08. It's a matter of pride for simple English Wikipedians because articles from this wiki are rarely selected for the global weekly translation program. Please grant me the patroller user rights so that I could start patrolling edits done by others for a constructive perspective of this wiki! Regards! --Haoreima (talk) 12:44, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done @Haoreima Thank you for your work here and for wanting to help. On this wiki, the patroller right includes autopatrol. Articles created by a user with that right do not have to be patrolled. I looked at some of the articles you created most recently and they do need to be patrolled, at least for grammar. So at this time I will not give you patroller rights, even though your work here is appreciated. -- Auntof6 (talk) 18:18, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I am requesting the patroller rights, as I once had them, as part of my vandalism fighting, so that I would find them quickly and be able to flag for QD instead of having to monitor the recent changes page or bot channel which transmits all changes. An example I found today was after Eptalon deleted called List of People Who Lick a Flashlight it was recreated again and the only reason I found it is because someone added a name to it so it showed changes to the page but not the creation. I think having this right-back would be very helpful in preventing these types of pages from polluting the wiki. It was removed from me a while back by Auntof6 for abusing my tools and subsequently getting a 6-month block for the all-around behavior I exhibited at the time. Since I have been back, I have been extremely careful in the use of rollback and the comments I leave and have been very helpful to new users before blasting them with warnings. Thank you for you consideration. Please ping me as I do not keep this page on my watch list. PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 02:34, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done On this wiki, the patroller right includes auto-patrol, which means that articles you create wouldn't need to be patrolled. You haven't created enough articles recently (none since September last year) to show whether they need patrolling. Please ask again when you have created a number of good articles. -- Auntof6 (talk) 03:07, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Auntof6 While it may contain that right as well, I do not normally create articles as I am too busy with vandalism and going through the change logs and fixing all that is wrong with the articles. I do not feel this should be the only factor in the decision as I asked for it so I can get to new pages created by users and get them handled faster as the bot lists every single change made (unless the user is on the white list, like myself). I had also asked for someone to ping me as this is not a page on my watch list. Thank you. PDL^{Talk to me!}_{OMG, What have I done?} 22:54, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@PotsdamLamb: I still decline. The fact that you don't normally create articles (or other pages, because it applies to those, too) doesn't mean that you never create them or won't create them in the future. -- Auntof6 (talk) 23:09, 2 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Here the patroller right includes autopatrolled, which means that articles you created are automatically marked as patrolled. However, I have looked at articles you created and they do need to be patrolled. That is because they contain complex words and complex sentence structure. This is common when you use the content translator. Automatic translators like the content translator almost never produce text that meets the requirements for simple language here. After translating a page, you need to simplify it. Please work on creating articles that use simple language, then you can ask for patroller after you have expertise with that. --Auntof6 (talk) 07:22, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Auntof6, I expect you will be reviewing. Thank you for your review, but please keep a note that I'm highly aware about the issues in content translator. I myself do simplifying a lot. And I will still keep learning about simplification of articles. DMK-C5 (talk) 07:30, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@DMK-C5: What do you expect that I will be reviewing? You might be aware about issues with the content translator, but I can only go by the articles I've seen you create, and they need simplifying. If you like, you can pick one you have simplified, I can look at it to see if it needs more, and, if so, explain why. -- Auntof6 (talk) 07:35, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DMK, I would like to see you in return in a few months once you have more experience with article creation and simplification.

With patroller, you are expected to make the pages patrollable, eg by adding those sources, rather than tagging that it doesn't have sources, so it can be patrolled.

I am familiar with the processes of QD and RFD; having nominated over 1000 pages for quick deletion and many for RFD (verify). I am pretty familiar with the manual of style used on this wiki and am active on the recent contributions page reviewing newly created pages. This is my second request for Patroller rights, my last request can be seen here. – Cyber.Eyes2005^Talk 14:47, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The number of articles would be OK. However, Wikipedia:Patrollers says that patrollers are trusted users, and there is a recent relevant ANI report (Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Current_issues_and_requests_archive_76#Special:Contributions/Malik-Al-Hind_and_Special:Contributions/Cyber.Eyes.2005). ~~In my opinion, this is Not done,~~ but any other admin can override my decision at their responsibility if the recent ANI report is not a big issue. MathXplore (talk) 10:47, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The editor involved in the ANI report with me admitted their mistake Special:Diff/9618851. The ANI report was based on a misunderstanding involving the other editor, and I was actually correct in that situation. Does such a report made 2 months ago affect an editor’s trustworthiness per Wikipedia:Patrollers? I respect the admins' decision if they believe it does, but I wanted to leave a comment for when I request patroller rights again and wanted to clarify the situation. – Cyber.Eyes2005^Talk 11:38, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This may be a borderline case, so I will call for a secondary opinion. MathXplore (talk) 13:48, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see it as a mistake, and we all make mistakes – trust me, I would not have any userrights if I was still judged for my own mistakes I've made from the past! I don't think this case relates to patroller as much, I think it'd more be an issue if this was a rollback request as it's more related to edit warring which doesn't really affect patroller. I personally wouldn't see it as an issue in this request. --Ferien (talk) 20:25, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If others think it's not a big issue then that's good, I cancelled the marking and check the pages when I have enough time. MathXplore (talk) 22:05, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The latest article creation is in June (special:permalink/9591084, [2], [3]), and the next one is in January (special:permalink/9284133).

I am a very active new pages patrollers. I have created over 90 articles on this Wikipedia. They are all following the policies and include zero copyrighted material. These include translations of the week, but I mainly simplify articles from EnWiki. I am very familiar with the QD and RFD process and involve in them actively. I am pretty familiar with Wikipedia:BLP, Wikipedia:Copyright, Wikipedia:Verifiability and Wikipedia:Notability.

Not done, no matter the outcome of the ANI discussion. I checked some of the articles you created, and they all needed work. That matters, because when you have the patroller right, your own created pages don't show up as needing patrol. Here are some of the specific things I found, just to give you an idea:

Crime Investigation Department (Pakistan): poor formatting, needs copy editing
Law enforcement in Pakistan: First sentence is practically a tautology. Use of term "generally" should be more specific. I diffused one category.
Textile industry in Pakistan: complex words; needs better categorization

I also noticed that articles needed either better categories, or any categories at all. If you'd like help with categories, feel free to ask. -- Auntof6 (talk) 05:15, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I've been on Simple Wiki for almost 3 months now, and since then I've created 47 articles, 4 categories, and improved 5 articles. I believe that I have gained enough skills and knowledge of the rules for my articles to be automatically marked as patrolled and for me to be able to patrol other users' articles. On plwiki I have similar permissions (editor), which proves my trustworthiness and sufficient technical knowledge of wikicode and the system. Best regards, BZPN (talk) 12:42, 20 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think a bit more time and article creation is needed but don't object if another admin wants to grant it as I do trust you fr33k man 22:06, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Hi! yeah Fr33kman is right. I think you need a bit more experience with simplifying. I went through some of your recent pages, and while structurally and in terms of wikification they are all excellent, some more work is needed when it comes to simplification. I recommend taking a look at some of the very good pages too see how you can simplify your pages. For example, Chasuble, that you recently created has a complex lead and history section, which can be further simplified. I will be happy to grant it in one month's time if you gain a little more experience in this area. Thank you :) --BRP^ever 05:58, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@BRPever, Thank you for handling this request. However, it seems to me that, for example, in the articles Antipope Felix V, Pallium or Fanon the style is simple enough (if I'm wrong, please correct me). I constantly create new articles and try to use simple but precisely descriptive vocabulary, because the reader needs to get some specific information from the article. Of course, I will try to create new articles in an even simpler way. BZPN (talk) 08:32, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BZPN, in Antipope Felix V, there are a few parts that could be simplified, e.g. "his resignation helped pave the way for the election of Pope Nicholas V" could probably just be simplified to "his resignation helped Pope Nicholas V get elected". The patroller right is typically given to editors with a long history of article creation, usually hundreds of patrollable articles. The articles you're creating right now are good, they just need to be a little more simplified in order for us to say your articles don't need any checking at all.

Hello, i am requesting autopatrol and patrol rights on Simple Wiki, based on my extensive experience and contributions to the platform. With over 12 months of experience, I have created more than 50 articles and improved over 20 others, demonstrating my commitment and dedication to the community. Additionally, my experience on enwiki has proven my trustworthiness and technical proficiency in wikicode and the system.

Not done @Royalesignature The patroller right is only given to those who have had an extensive history of creating good pages that need no patrolling on the Simple English Wikipedia. This means writing pages that are simple, have little to no pages deleted, and require little to no copyediting from other editors. You have only made one edit to the Simple English Wikipedia on this account, which is this request for the patroller permission.

Hello. I'm back 50 days after my last RfP here :). I hope that during this time I have gained enough knowledge to become a patroller. As you probably know, I am most active on RC. I often see new pages and know what actions to take with them. I try to improve articles requiring basic improvement and mark them with appropriate templates. I also tag QD or report to RfD. I have read the rules for patrolling pages and know when to mark a page as patrolled. I think I could be useful as an active patroller. Also ping for BRP, if you7 would like to handle this request :). Thank you and best regards, BZPN (talk) 23:11, 15 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am requesting for patroller rights today. I have created over 70 articles in this wiki. I am familiar with this wikipedia's policies, including those about copyright infringement, biographies (notability) and if a source is verifiable. My most qualified article is probably Max Maeder. I patroll new pages regularly. If you have any issues please let me know. Thanks. Cactus🌵 ^spiky ^ツ 07:58, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme:

Not done On this wiki, the patroller right includes autopatrol. That means articles created by patrollers don't appear as needing to be patrolled. I just looked a some of the articles you creates and they did need patrolling. Some of the issues I saw were:

Article not categorized
Complex language
Reference display not properly formatted

Not only do those things mean that the articles you created needed patrolling, but you might not recognize the issues in other articles you look at. So for now, I'd say to work on creating better articles here. -- Auntof6 (talk) 10:05, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I’m requesting Autopatrolled rights for my account. I have contributed a significant number of edits, voting in Rfds and is well familiar about assessing the Notability required for page creations and is also familiar with WP:GNG, WP:BLP and WP:Verifiablity.

I believe these rights would help my workflow and reduce the load on reviewers. Ksy 11:40, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looking over your changes, could you explain your understanding of the process for attribution of imported articles and article categorisation? Griff (talk) 13:52, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, When we are importing articles from other wiki projects/languages, a proper attribution is 'Must' when publishing it on simplewiki.org. This attribution either be on the 'Talk page' or in the 'Change Summary' section. Other than this, also the article needs to be simplified (not mere copy pasting). Infact, simplification is the Norm/essence of Simplewikipedia.org.

The other part regarding the artcile categorisation, It is important part of the Article that make it assessable to the relevant users on Wikipedia. Normally, atleat one category is must as per Wikipedia:Categories. I prefer to add maximum number of relevant categories. And in case, if there is no relevant category available, the lowest existing matching category is added to the page. --Ksy 14:46, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not done

Ksy, after a review of some of your recent creations, I have the following concerns.

The content of the articles have not been wikified. Many terms/subjects that should be wikilinked have not been.
The content of the articles has not been sufficiently simplified. Words such as rigorous and encompassing should be avoided.
The articles are not properly categorised. Several articles that were created have red-linked (non-existent) categories.

I would like to see more articles created from you that do not have the above concerns and also follow MOS guidelines for article structure and section naming. One thing I did LOVE about your articles is your extensive sourcing, in fact, they were some of the best sourced new articles I have seen. However, I felt that sometimes you included facts from sources that might not always flow with the content. I recommend reading through some of our very good articles to help improve the writing style.

That all being said, I really appreciate all the work you have done so far and I learned a lot from reading through your articles. I look forward to seeing a future request from you as I can see that you will be a great help to the patrolling team.

If you have any questions or would like an article review, feel free to ask on ST (or ask me directly, although it may take me a few days to do it). Best, Griff (talk) 15:52, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
