Autopatrolled

Requested this permission ~2 months ago, denied because I was mostly creating auto-notable stubs. I think I have expanded the types of articles I create, including well-sourced local pages or biographical entries where I take time to source subjects that do not inherently meet a generic notability criteria. (I still do create auto-notable pages sometimes, but those no longer make up the majority of pages I create.) As a new page reviewer, I got good experience with the notability guidelines reviewing articles during the backlog drive WP:MAY25, and also participating in AfD. Thought about requesting again as I have run into a few of my own pages while reviewing pages that are in topics I contribute to/am interested in. Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:15, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Also wanted to mention that if I am unsure of a subject's notability, I will utilize WP:AFC for my own articles occasionally Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 02:18, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
Automated comment This user has had 1 request for autopatrolled declined in the past 90 days ([1]). — MusikBot talk 02:20, 28 June 2025 (UTC)
- Came here to request this permission for a different user, but since Yoblyblob is referencing their WP:MAY25 NPP work, it is worth noting that among the re-reviews of each patroller's work, 14/17 of their patrol decisions were approved. Of the remainder, two were drafted/redirected as WP:TOOSOON coverage of 2026 state elections and one was drafted for lacking enough coverage to qualify under WP:NEVENT. Considering they were the fifth most active patroller of the drive, this accuracy is good, not great. ViridianPenguin🐧 (💬) 19:20, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

I have been on Wikipedia for more than a decade, and I truly feel that it is one of my great passions in life. I have more than 30,000 edits, and I am credited with more than 300 articles that are not Redirects or Disambiguation pages. (I personally take credit for more than 100 of these, which did not originate as Redirect pages.) Although I continue to propose Draft pages to this day when I am not 100% confident myself about notability, I frequently go straight to the mainspace and have made a number of articles that have been significant in some form or field, with my particular focus being on film industry and electoral politics pages.
Recently, I redirected a few thousand Supreme Court of the United States cases to the case volumes in which they were listed. It was a large-scale project for me, but in the end it was decided that redlinks would be better for promoting caseload knowledge, something that I agreed to and I believe will continue to service our Wikipedia community. For this reason, it might appear that I have a large number of deleted pages, but this is almost exclusively due to this particular project; I had an edit deletion rate of less than 2%, and I had not had a page that I created taken down in years, not since I was a far more novice editor. (You can read more about that SCOTUS discussion here.)
I believe that being autopatrolled will continue to allow me to contribute to the Wikipedia community, and that is why I am reaching out to ask for permissions. I am happy to answer any questions or improve any articles that I have created if there is anything noticeable that needs help. Although I have long been looking to increase my permissions and role in the community, I quite frankly have always had impostor syndrome stop me from asking, but a bit of encouragement from Liz made me try. Thank you so much! PickleG13 (talk) 20:27, 5 July 2025 (UTC)
- I'm not inclined to grant autopatrolled so soon after the SCOTUS redirect deletions, but won't object if another admin wants to grant it. voorts (talk/contributions) 01:51, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your honest feedback, voorts. Although I hope that an admin decides to grant it, I have been on Wikipedia for a long time and I will continue to for a long time to come no matter what. Please let me know if you ever need help with anything, whether it's a full-scale project or a simple clean-up. PickleG13 (talk) 21:47, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
- FWIW, I don't think the redirect incident should be held against Pickle. It was an honest BOLD move that they weren't thinking of as article creation. If those lists actually had information in them about the cases, the redirects wouldn't have even been a negative. And I have made similar redirects before after determining the case was not Notable and adding holding information to the list. My view (obviously, given my longstanding project of making articles for SCOTUS cases) is that we should prefer to have articles, but Pickle's redirect idea did not come from a bad place. Plus, their responses to criticism about this incident were always good, even when I just left a message complaining about it on their talk page. lethargilistic (talk) 18:41, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

- The sourcing provided here does not appear to meet WP:NORG, which requires "significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject". Can you provide sources that establish the notability of this organization? voorts (talk/contributions) 22:22, 1 August 2025 (UTC)
- I agree some of the sourcing used is WP:CORPTRIV — the foundation has extensive coverage in Korea. I've just added some stronger pieces. The pre/post interview text in this Forbes feature is one with significant secondary coverage. CherryPie94 🍒🥧 (talk) 05:24, 3 August 2025 (UTC)

I have created over 25 new articles that meet notability guidelines and follow Wikipedia standards and guideliness. I am familiar with Wikipedia’s core content policies (NPOV, V, NOR) and believe that being autopatrolled will reduce the workload on new page patrollers, my ittention for contributing to Wikipedia, i have mention to my talk page, also to be noted i am reviewer and patroller at Albanian wiki with all articles, neither deleted, and noone of edits are reverted. Thank you in advance. Lanceloth345 (talk) 12:43, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
- Hey Lanceloth345, could you comment on why Petrit Malaj was deleted a few weeks ago, and what you improved when you recreated it? (Courtesy ping for Sphilbrick, who deleted under CSD G12.) Similarlly with Gjesti, which is currently in draftspace. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 13:08, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
- Page Petrit Malaj was recreated again in neutral way + more sources, becouse first version had some words "sounding" not neutral at all, (my fault) as per draft:Gjesti lacking notability it's under review but explained at talk page of draft page reasons why he is notable ect. (also partecipating other editor in discussion). Lanceloth345 (talk) 13:13, 16 July 2025 (UTC)
Not done User:Lanceloth345. The discussion at the Gjesti draft shows that there is still quite a bit of learning to do around notability. You're still quite a new user, so I'm sure you'll pick up the details of the policy over time! —Femke 🐦 (talk) 14:49, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Been an active user for a few years, created 25+ articles with the only two deletions being mistakenly created redirects (due to a script error). Multiple GAs and FLs. I understand enwiki notability guidelines thoroughly.ULPS (talk • contribs) 22:51, 23 July 2025 (UTC)
- Support! Low article creation activity in the trailing year, but I'm somewhat familiar with ULPS's work, and would consider him trustworthy enough for autopatrolled. Spot-checks for copyright concerns and sourcing turn up no issues. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:45, 24 July 2025 (UTC)
- Hello @ULPS. Where did you cite the DOB for Pat Flynn (musician). No other problems in your most recent creations I could spot. Unrelated, your signature is too light to meet WP:SIGAPP; could you chose a darker colour to get enough contrast. I note that it looks more bold in Chrome than in Firefox. —Femke 🐦 (talk) 17:21, 2 August 2025 (UTC)
- Hey @Femke, I think I forgot to cite it. I used an Instagram post of his, which I think is fine under ABOUTSELF, and went and added it now. Apologies, I usually don't forget things like that. And thanks for the heads up about my sig, I'll change it asap. ULPS (talk • contribs) 22:38, 2 August 2025 (UTC)

Slightly below the recommended 25 creations before nomination, but this editor has a track record of writing quality content that I don't believe NPP needs to continue reviewing. No issues found spot-checking their recent creations. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:26, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Demonstrates understanding of the notability guidelines on a variety of subjects. The articles are fairly well-written and -formatted; a few are also now GAs. I marked a couple of her newer creations as reviewed and found no major issues. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 21:31, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

I have created more than 25 non redirect articles within the past few weeks and 53 non redirects overall. The two mainspace ones that have been deleted were by my own request, thanks to a slip of the "Publish changes" button. Aside from those, all have been approved by the adminteam. I would greatly be thankful to receive this permission. Luxtaythe2nd (Talk to me...) 17:56, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello,
I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I have created around 30 well-sourced, policy-compliant articles on the English Wikipedia.
In addition to my contributions here, I am an administrator (sysop) on the Persian Wikipedia (fa.wikipedia), where I have been active for many years, focusing on content creation, vandalism control, and community support.
Granting this right would help reduce the workload of new page patrollers, as my article creations usually meet Wikipedia’s quality standards.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Hello,
I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I’ve created several articles, many of which are currently live and meet Wikipedia’s guidelines on notability and reliable sourcing.
I’m familiar with the key content policies such as WP:N, WP:V, WP:RS, and WP:NPOV, and consistently apply them when creating or editing articles.
I understand that this permission is intended to reduce the workload of new page reviewers by marking trusted users’ pages as reviewed automatically, and I believe my contributions demonstrate the consistency and policy alignment expected for this role.
I have not received any blocks or serious warnings, and I’m committed to continuing constructive, policy-compliant editing.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Sweetabena (talk) 23:39, 28 July 2025 (UTC)
- Hi @Sweetabena: I’ve gone through some of the articles you’ve created, including Daniel Dung Mahama, Simon Akibange Aworigo, Anabah Thomas Winsum, and Nikyema Billa Alamzy. I noticed that these pages have been tagged for AI-generated content (WP:LLM). Could you please clarify this? Additionally, the article on Bright Owusu has a notability issue. Have you made any efforts to address or fix that? I also noticed that most of your articles are about politicians or MPs, which is generally a relatively easier area for a New Page Patroller. Regards! Baqi:) (talk) 12:15, 31 July 2025 (UTC)
- Hi @Jannatulbaqi,
- Thanks for your response and for reviewing my request.
- I've now gone through the articles you mentioned; Daniel Dung Mahama, Simon Akibange Aworigo, Anabah Thomas Winsum, and Nikyema Billa Alamzy and made revisions to ensure they fully reflect a human-authored tone, improve clarity, and adhere to Wikipedia’s content policies. I manually wrote these articles based on reliable sources, and I’ve taken extra care to revise any sections that might have appeared too generic or AI-like in style.
- Regarding Bright Owusu, I realized that the subject is better known publicly as “C-Confion,” which is the name used in most reliable sources. I initially created a redirect page under that name, and since C-Confion better reflects WP:COMMONNAME, I’ve submitted a technical move request at WP:RM/TR to move the article accordingly.
- While many of my articles are in the political space, I’ve focused on that area because it's typically easier to demonstrate notability. That said, I’m open to expanding into other areas and continuing to improve the range and quality of my contributions.
- I appreciate your time and consideration, and I remain committed to constructive, policy-compliant editing. Thank you so much.Sweetabena (talk) 21:05, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

As a part of Wikipedia: Tambayan Philippines and the Music Task Force, I would like to request the autopatrolled user right. I have created over 25 articles, most of which are currently live and have been built with careful attention to WP:N, WP:V, and reliable sourcing.

I have been an active contributor for over a month, with more than 1,700 edits across diverse topics, particularly in Indian biographies, cinema, history, and culture. I consistently adhere to Wikipedia's content policies, including notability, verifiability, and neutral point of view. Several of my articles have been successfully accepted through the Articles for Creation (AfC) process. Granting me autopatrolled rights would help reduce the workload on new page reviewers by allowing trusted users like myself to create articles without requiring manual review. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Had my first AP request declined due to my poor judgement with notability of railway stations. I've learned from that mistake (and cleaned up after myself), and I've created articles like Expo 2025 pavilions (Although this was a collaboration with Epicgenius) and Magical Girl Witch Trials since my request was declined.

I have been an active contributor to Wikipedia for over two years, and I truly feel that it is one of my greatest passions in life. I have made more than 4,000 edits and am credited with creating over 100 articles, excluding redirects and disambiguation pages. Additionally, I have expanded and improved numerous stub articles, enhancing their content and quality. I have also translated several articles into local languages, making Wikipedia more accessible to a broader audience. By becoming autopatrolled, I believe I can not only continue contributing effectively to the Wikipedia community based on my vast knowledge of WP:N, WP:V, and reliable sourcing but also help ease the burden on administrators in assessing quality content.
