As a rough guideline, administrators usually require editors to have made more than 500 useful non-botlike edits, and to have been active in the last thirty days. Patrollers and License reviewers don't have to request this flag.
Hi, I'm quite an active editor on Wikipedia for electoral events and I'd need the permissions to overwrite files like Parliament composition diagrams and such that may change fairly frequently over time and are often handled by multiple users at the same time. Thank you. Fm3dici97 (talk) 14:05, 25 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I believe I have met the requirements. I previously uploaded two files that violated copyright, but I realized my mistake and understood it, I also have the same rights on arwiki.--Aws💬 Talk16:20, 4 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
To your credit, you haven't had any issues since October, but not that many contributions either since October. Your tenure here is essentially five months. Yes, I can see that you have rights on arwiki, I'll take that into consideration. Abzeronow (talk) 00:17, 5 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I would like to be able to upload higher resolution versions of the same image from better sources (sometimes directly extracting from PDF). I currently have 598 edits on Commons. Thank you. Johnkinslow (talk) 06:41, 7 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I’m an active user on both WP and Commons. I’d like to have permission to upload newer versions and higher resolution images. Thank you. Themanlk (talk)
Requesting AWB/JWB access because I mainly work in weather/track map related areas and the template has/had some issues regarding headers and other parameters that have stayed in older files that I would like to fix. Additionally, I would like to add the colors parameter to the template's invocations for files which use the post-2023 color scheme. I would also like this to work with categories in the future. I have access to this on enwiki as well. Thank you. HurricaneZeta (talk) 23:10, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am requesting AWB access to be able to more easily mass-rename and mass-update AntWeb specimens. As quite clearly shown in my contributions, I have made a large amount of repetitive edits to update ant specimen information from outdated files. I have read and understand the guidelines for proper AWB use in pages, and I will adhere to them to the best of my ability. In the near term, it appears that my sole and extensive use for this right is to mass-update ant specimen images, of which over 30,000 exist. Thank you. 2003LN606:51, 22 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As a rough guideline, administrators usually require editors to have made at least 1,000 useful, non-botlike edits or a large amount of justified renaming requests at Commons before they will consider granting the filemover right.
I'm an autopatroller on WikiCommons with several meaningful contributions. My work is focused primarily on the vectorization of flags. I am an active Wikigraphist who is happy to take requests for vectorizing low-quality bitmap flags and coats of arms. As an autopatroller, I also help improve existing SVG-traced flags and files with bad vectorization in general, which often need to be renamed for harmonization purposes. Having file-moving rights would make this process easier and quicker. Thank you. Feitidede☆゚.*16:10, 17 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm quite experienced with Wikidata and Wikipedia (3.6K and 2K edits respectively), and sometimes have to deal with images on Wikimedia Commons. I've also had to rename files sometimes, and all of my move requests so far have been accepted, so I felt like applying for the permission myself, in order to stop wasting other people's time with this. Thank you. Spiral6800 (talk) 22:16, 7 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Not done for now. edit count on Commons and rename requests both too low. Please reapply in a few months when you'd have more edits and rename requests. Abzeronow (talk) 22:54, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I'm LightandDark2000. I'm pretty experienced working on Commons at this point, and I'm also quite familiar with Commons naming and categorization policies. I've also read over the Patrol guidelines page, and I'd like to help out with clearing the new files backlog every once in a while. BlueHypercane761 🌀 (talk) 01:02, 9 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@أوس, unless I am missing something, I can't see any anti-vandalism work from you here on Commons. No use of undo/twinkle yet. Also having a right in some wiki doesn't solely guarantee getting rights here. Shaan SenguptaTalk17:44, 4 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'd also like to see some anti-vandalism work before I'd grant this right to you. I'll take your rollbacker right on arwiki into consideration (shows that you understand the right is intended to fight vandalism). Abzeronow (talk) 00:25, 5 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Abzeronow, @Shaan Sengupta, If you look more closely at my contributions, you'll find that I delete the content of offending user pages instead of using the regular undo button. the new redo button eliminates the need to delete the content of offending user pages; instead, I can simply click the redo button. --Aws💬 Talk08:49, 6 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
For a rough advise, do not seek this flag if you have not made about 500 useful edits on Wikimedia Commons unless you associate with any Wikimedia affiliate, or campaigns such as Wiki Loves Earth.
I would be organizing Wiki loves Folklore 2026 in Ghana and would be glad if am granted the organizer right to enable me create the event registration page on Commons to enable reaching more people and passing info to participants easily. I was contacted by Giovanna Fontenelle from the Wikimedia Foundation's Content Enablement team to test a feature launched on Commons as a Wiki Loves Folklore organizer. As part of the procedure, I am asked to request “Event Organizers user rights” on Commons. Thanks. Ato Quamina Ceo (talk) 17:31, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am an experienced Wikimedia event organizer within the Wikimedia Côte d'Ivoire community and I am responsible for organizing the Wiki Loves Folklore 2026 campaign in my country. I was contacted by Giovanna Fontenelle from the Wikimedia Foundation's Content Enablement team to test a feature launched on Commons as a Wiki Loves Folklore organizer. As part of the procedure, I am asked to request “Event Organizers user rights” on Commons. That is the reason for this request. Thanks. Aristidek5maya (talk) 16:47, 11 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am a bit hesitant here. I can't see a justification to why you need event-organizer right. These rights aren't needed to run campaigns but for creating event pages in Event: namespace. @Tiven2240, can you please help me comprehend this request? signed, Aafi (talk)17:52, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Aafi, we are working together with team of WMF to promote the use of Event Registration tool on Wikimedia Commons. @Almaddy2022 is WLF organiser in Nigeria and requesting rights for event registration so that they can also be a part of this initiative and other that they would organise in future. Thank you. ✝iѵɛɳ२२४०†ลℓк †๏ мэ19:14, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Almaddy2022 is WLF organizer from Kenya, not from Nigeria. Yes Right to register event on Wikimedia Commons. sorry for the confusion. Thank you Almaddy2022 (talk) 20:16, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I am a long-time contributor and an active participant in various Wikimedia projects. I am currently working on several initiatives, including WLM and WLF, and I need these user rights to support my work and campaigns . Thank you. MikyM (talk) 20:46, 12 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
