Reason: re: Mass Deletion of Holocaust Survivor Quotes & Images from Witness: Passing the Torch of Holocaust Memory to New Generations hello, I have a few important issues to raise with this latest deletion. I'm addressing this post both to the author of the deletions as well as to any neutral observers will be viewing this at a later date. 1. This page has been up for many years (since 2015) with no objection to the quotes and images that were up prior to January 2, 2025, despite having been seen by thousands of people, including Wikipedia editors. I have seen a lot of pages being unjustly attacked or ones with content deleted without proper explanation, and I have noticed that some pages get some protection from this. On Jan 2 this year, a user (Moxy) deleted over 13,000 characters and some pictures with no explanation except "mass copy and pasting," which was untrue. Over the last decade, this content has been filled with survivor testimony and was wiped out in seconds. 2. The editor who deleted over 13,000 words claims these quotes were mass copied and pasted. This is untrue. Each quote was sourced and excerpted from a different review and was pasted individually 3. The editor who deleted the 13,000 words also deleted all the references below (under "See Also"), including the references to the USC Shoah Foundation, among other references. This organization is intimately tied to the book because every picture of a Holocaust survivor or Righteous among the Nations in the book is linked to the testimony found on the USCSF website. One of the significant features of the book is that the testimony on the printed page becomes alive when one uses a smartphone (hovering over the image in the book) to access the testimony on the USC Shoah Foundation. 4. All the quotes and images from the Holocaust survivors (Elie Wiesel etc.) and other individuals (Steven Spielberg (founder of USC Shoah Foundation), Pop Francis, Pres. Barak Obama etc) mentioned in the book have been removed. One of the stated goals of the book is to keep the memories and stories of the Holocaust survivors alive. So it is indeed ironic that whoever is removing these images is doing the exact opposite of the purpose of the book. The title of the book is: Witness: Passing the Torch of Holocaust Memory to New Generations. By deleting these crucial testimonies to the Holocaust, the editor is, in fact, extinguishing the "torch of Holocaust memory" for current readers and generations to come if these deletions are allowed to stand. To put this point as succinctly as possible - directly to the editor - why would you or anybody else want to remove a picture of a Holocaust survivor from the book whose entire family was murdered in the Holocaust? To end and to what purpose does this serve? My last point: This is not the first time that Holocaust pages have been unfairly targeted, even after the pages were up for many, many years on Wikipedia - seen by thousands without objection. One has to wonder if there is a political agenda at play or if some individuals are simply intent on disrupting the flow of human understanding of significant events in human history, and this case, the history of the Holocaust. It is beyond frustrating when one is trying to educate the public with pure knowledge and help people understand the enormity of events like the Holocaust when individuals come along randomly, for no apparent reason - or perhaps even worse - and delete these important sources of the history of humanity. Write this now. As this is becoming a worrisome trend, especially in this hyper-politicized environment, I am wondering if there's a way we can get protection for this page to forestall these kinds of unjustified mass deletions. When I wrote on the person's wall and explained these points, the user wrote back, " This is not grade 7..." As someone whose own great-grandmother was deported to Auschwitz in 1944 at 84 years of age, this is not just a question of academic knowledge but deeply personal to me as well. But I keep things subjective for Wikipedia. Is there some actual help Wikipedia can provide to stop people form erasing 3/4 of a page that has been up for a decade instantly? thanks you so much |

Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.
- To find out the username of the admin who protected the page, click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page," which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
- Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
- Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
- If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page, please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected, please use the section below.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.

Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
- Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}template should be used. - Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
- If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
- This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.

Autopatrolled[edit]
Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights Hi, I would like to request this right because I have met the criteria for 25 articles that are free of problems. I would like to use it for my interest in WikiProject Korea. You can see all of articles i've created here! :) Aidillia(talk) 07:08, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
Meets the minimum criteria, and the majority of their creations have passed a quality content review. It's been a little bit since the last creation, but I believe this editor has demonstrated enough familiarity with the policies and guidelines surrounding new articles that input from NPP will not be needed in the future. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 22:25, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
Cmacauley has been an editor since 2007, meets all the required criteria, and would likely benefit from having the AP right granted. This editor currently has 59 live articles and has only had one article deleted. They have consistently produced well-referenced, high-quality articles, with the majority receiving B-class ratings. Wikipedialuva (talk) 05:07, 8 January 2025 (UTC)
I've been around for some time, am quite familiar with tough conversations at the Teahouse or IRC (though I've sadly been inactive at the latter for a while) with new editors excitedly pushing their (often promotional) new articles, and do occasionally write new articles, 53 so far. I might as well not clutter the new pages queue. — Anon423 (talk) 01:51, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
Has created 166 articles, with all of them created over the last year or so are still live. As part of NPP, I reviewed Titus Joseph Mdoe and found that SiniyaEdita had created the page without the intervention from others, and I didn't think that it needed further improvement. Other articles they created are of a similar standard. Klbrain (talk) 17:03, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I've seen this editor's work on multiple occasions at New Page Review. Has created 208 pages, none deleted, more than 3/4 of them B-class. High-quality page creation with infoboxes, quality references with proper formatting, images, etc., requiring no cleanup by reviewers. Dclemens1971 (talk) 17:38, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I would like to request auto-patrolled rights on Wikipedia. I have been actively contributing to the project and have created more than 30 of articles to date, which adhere to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. I believe my experience and attention to detail make me a good fit for this role. Granting me auto-patrolled rights would help reduce the workload on other patrollers by automatically marking my new pages as reviewed. Please feel free to review my contributions and articles to ensure they meet the necessary standards. Let me know if any additional information is required. Thank you for considering my request! Needforname (talk) 17:39, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
Reason for requesting autopatrolled rights Ahola .O (talk) 22:56, 11 January 2025 (UTC) I am requesting the autopatrolled user right because I have been actively contributing to Wikipedia and believe that my experience and adherence to Wikipedia's guidelines make me a suitable candidate for this right, I have created over 25 articles, all of which comply with Wikipedia's notability guidelines and content policies. My contributions have consistently aimed to enhance the quality and reliability of the encyclopedia. I believe that granting me the autopatrolled user right will help reduce the workload of new page patrollers and allow me to continue contributing to Wikipedia more efficiently.

Reason for requesting autowikibrowser rights. I have used AWB before and found it practical to correct spelling errors. I think I then used it only (mainly?) on Swedish Wikipedia and that is what I plan to do in the future as well. And I think I will use it primarily on such misspellings that are common in the swedish language. In that case the AWB tool is much more handy than doing it with no help at all. Thanks in advance.

Extended confirmed[edit]
Reason for Request: I am requesting reinstatement of Extended Confirmed Rights after their removal by User:ScottishFinnishRadish for concerns related to "gaming EC through adding a machine translation of Fondation Maeght and Rueil-Malmaison in many small edits without attribution." He asked me to "make at least a few hundred edits" to regain it. Since the removal, I have added attribution to the concerned articles. I have made over 600 referenced contributions, focusing on adding reliable sources to improve verifiability, expanding content in alignment with Wikipedia’s standards, and enhancing article quality. I believe my recent contributions demonstrate constructive and policy-compliant editing. Examples of Recent Contributions: Foucault pendulum, Water metering, Smart meter, and Gas meter. My recent edits also contributed significantly to upgrading the article History of the Jews in Tunisia from "Start-Class" to "B-Class." Michael Boutboul (talk) 12:28, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
 Not done - This request has been unanswered for nearly a month. I think that is because you have asked three admins (Star Mississippi here, and Drmies and ScottishFinnishRadish at your talk page) to justify concerns which they have already described clearly and repeatedly. That is placing an onus on them to prove you untrustworthy. This is not how permissions requests work. Two significant concerns have been raised already: (1.) you have added translated content from other Wikipedias without attribution and (2.) you have artificially split your article contributions into separate edits to more quickly reach a high edit count, e.g. 127 edits to Water metering. I have to say that at water metering alone, while your changes were significant, they don't justify that number of edits. That together with the timing of your request makes it reasonably likely that you made those 127 edits to attain the target set for you (to make a "few hundred" more edits) when the permission was removed. In those circumstances, the concerns raised are unaddressed. I would not be comfortable granting you the permission. Permissions are revoked due to lack of trust and there is no automatic right to regain it. If you wish to gain this permission again, the onus would be on you to prove that trust has been regained. arcticocean ■ 21:57, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
@OhNoItsJamie removed my access to EC because i made a quite a few test edits and said if i made 100 constructive edits, i would gain it back, and so im asking for it, if not its fine i guess
Reason for requesting extended confirmed rights Hello! A few weeks ago my extended-confirmed protection was removed for breaking WP:PGAME, I sincerely apologize for this, I was impatient and I had no knowledge of the rules existence at the time. Out of the 600 edits I’ve done so far, only ~50-80 of them are dummy edits, which I’ve done on my sandbox. Zabezt (talk) 02:39, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
Hello! I would like to request the ability to be able to translate pages from Spanish to English and English to Spanish. I overwrote almost an entire page about some Smashing Pumpkins demo tapes, and I wanted to translate it into English as well since there was only one page and it was in Spanish. However I don't have 500 edits, and I can't seem to achieve it. I made a Wikipedia account to edit and share my knowledge with other SP fans who speak Spanish and are looking for more, updated info, as I'm fluent in both. Therefore I'd like to request this ability because I want to devote my time to translating on Wikipedia. I have three drafts so far and would really like to publish them. Thanks! Gish1991 (talk) 07:49, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
BusterD said that I could get AC if I make at least 250 more constructive edits and that means a total of 750 edits. I have done more than that and I have intentions of constructively contributing to Wikipedia if I get extended confirmed access.

New page reviewer[edit]
I am primarily a content creator, i.e. I create articles. Thus my contribution to new page reviewer duties is only occasional, but it is almost always done at length and at depth, so that WP does benefit from my NPR contributions, however rare they may be. My total record under the official unbrella of new page reviewer has been as follows: 2023: St Luke's Hospital, Rugby, Laverstock ware, Theodorus (archbishop of Ravenna), Brasidas lacerta, Euan Duthie, Lord Duthie. 2024: Pilgrims' Cross, Holcombe Moor, Ruth Shevelen, Saint James the Less, Pockthorpe, Happy the Hoglet, Labour for the Common Good, Yasmin Al-Khudhairi, Tongerlongeter, Arctic Ascent with Alex Honnold. Now, as I understand it, permissions are automatically revoked after 12 months of official inactivity under that umbrella. But my permissions were revoked in June 2024, which does not chime with my 2024 new page reviewer record. So something wrong there. During the latter part of 2024 and at the beginning of this year, I made several attempts to fulfil some new page reviewer tasks, but the tools were no longer there from the middle of 2024, and it has taken me some time to find out what was causing that problem. Now, please would you kindly reinstate my new page reviewer rights, and maybe add some note to my name saying that my contributions are not massive, but they are useful. Thank you.

Page mover[edit]
Have participated in handful of RMs in past year, as well as at MRV. I've only come to RMTR once, but otherwise would be useful for disambiguation purposes. As I often create the disambig first, in order to justify a page moving away from ptopic; this often leaves me with having to swap the disambig page with the redirect and visa versa afterwards, when I simply need to perform a swap. I've otherwise closed RMs before, and would probably close more that aren't too controversial, but am often restricted due to the need to overwrite a redirect. CNC (talk) 12:54, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
Hi, I find myself not infrequently asking at RM/TR to move drafts over existing redirects with bits of history; I'd appreciate being able to do that myself. I also like taking in part in RMs and would like to be able to help with more than just the easiest closes. Thanks. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 18:16, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

I have lots of experience in the WP:TW scale of reverting edits, and wish to continue this through WP:PENDING BryceM2001 (talk) 20:40, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I'd like to request pending changes reviewer so I can review pending changes, as it'd help alongside doing vandalism patrol. SmittenGalaxy | talk! 08:52, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
I'd like to request pending changes review rights because I am familiar with the policy and this would help me with my vandalism patrols. Furthermore, I am currently trying to accept a request, but I do not have the permissions. Thanks! Ali Beary (talk2me!) (stalk me?!) 13:29, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
Hello, I've been active in the Wikipedia community adding new content and creating articles, but especially fighting vandalism. I have also gained experience in reviewing by looking and reviewing semi-protected and protected pages edit requests. I am now looking for a new challenge, and I think I could help by putting forth my skills for the pending changes reviewer role! Thanks for the consideration.TYPEINFO (talk) 06:36, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
My sole purpose of editing or the desire to review edits is for the wellbeing of Wikipedia. I made a few pages and made 1300+ edits. I believe in quality not quantity. TrueMoriarty (talk) 17:36, 8 January 2025 (UTC)

Rollback[edit]
I have been patrolling the recent changes page for a long time now, and it's pretty much the only thing I do on here (other then occasional copyediting.) When I learned about rollback and its benefits, I thought that could be a huge help for me and patrolling against vandalism. I love patrolling, and this will make my life so much easier. Thanks, Tenebre_Rosso_Sangue, Editing with SSStyle! Call for Medic! My Stats! 20:38, 5 January 2025 (UTC)
Reason for requesting rollback rights Hello! I routinely go to the Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection when I spot vandalism. I believe this would make the process of resolving issues faster. If you need links to my requests, I can provide them! If there is more things I could do, please tell me. NotQualified (talk) 22:49, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

"Do you want to take a survey?"
[edit]On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.

Early Anon work, no need to bug the developers
[edit]Up to Dec 16, 2003, all the edits at these anonymous id's were mine (59 edits):

More recently 1,250 or so edits on 75.41.110.200 are apparently all mine. Apparently my new ID is 75.41.109.190. There are undoubtedly many others as the earliest history of many articles was not preserved by the software.
