I am requesting for patroller. I have been contributing by creating multiple articles and improving the quality of content. I am familiar with Wikipedia's policies, including BLP, Copyright, Verifiability, and Notability, and I am committed to maintain these standards in all my contributions.Mr.Hanes Talk 14:48, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
- Ok, I've taken a look through your article creations, and it looks ok. Just make sure to try and make the articles as simple as possible. I've given you the flag, which will make your new article contributions automatically patrolled, and allow you to patrol other articles. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 19:40, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you so much! I will ensure to follow your advice and contribute positively to this platform. Mr.Hanes

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)
- @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)

- 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)
- 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)
- 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)
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)
- I really appreciate your kind words and suggestions and will work on it accordingly. Ksy 16:26, 31 January 2025 (UTC)
