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. Find possible candidates.
I'm trying to upload some MP3 files of songs/live performances from a band that releases them on bandcamp without a copyright so people can bootleg them freely. Would it be possible to have my MP3 upload ability enabled? Scu ba (talk) 18:29, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's definitely not part of Commons aims to "bootleg" songs. Additionally, you were blocked for a 2nd time for uploading copyvios last year, and I see from your talk page that you had some copyvios from this year. That is definitely concerning to me. MP3s are also complex as far as copyright because the composition also has to be public domain or explicitly freely licensed in addition to performance and the recording.

These are explicitly stated as having been released into the public domain by the band themselves. The "bootlegger" is the name of the website that the band runs. To quote the disclaimer on the website: If anyone wants to release these albums, you’re free to do so. Here you’ll find links to audio files and cover art. Feel free to get creative with it if you like - it’s yours. Scu ba (talk) 19:34, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure what else I need to do to argue my case here, I would only need autopatrol status for like a month to get these files up. You can check the website here for their release notice if you don't believe me quoting it. above. Scu ba (talk) 22:53, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm trying to upload some MP3 files of songs/live performances that a band has released their copyright on. However, when trying to do so I am given an error that MP3 uploads are disabled by default. I'm not sure if this is the right permission to ask for but it's the only other one on this page talking about MP3 files. If this isn't the right permission to ask for please point me in the right direction. Scu ba (talk) 18:19, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done - please ask above in the Autopatrolled section. Mp3 files are disabled to be uploaded by default for non-autopatrolled users. Regards, Aafi (talk)18:20, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
reason: More than 1400 changes in Wikimedia Commons + more than 5000 edits across the projects + donated 2 featured images and 3 high quality Thank you. David Osipov (talk) 07:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello. I would like to request autopatrolled permissions. I have uploaded most of my files correctly and according to the rules, and sometimes I mark copyvio files for deletion. I think my edits might be autopatrolled. Thank you. BZPN (talk) 13:04, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And also a lot of correctly loaded and valuable files, and the last problems with the file status were over a month ago ;). BZPN (talk) 14:06, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Your edit count is way lower than the required 500 edits. It's best to wait a couple of months before reapplying because there was some serious copyright issues with the files you uploaded. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 14:35, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hey there, I mostly update election maps, and often they don't have the right overwrite permissions even if they're supposed to be current. That'd be the vast majority of my use of this right. Requesting now because election day is tomorrow in the US and I'm sure there'll be something that needs updating. Thank you for your consideration.

I tend to make a lot of tedious edits involving categories, so being able to use AWB would be very useful. I have AWB permission on enwiki (verify), if that helps. Suntooooth (talk) 02:07, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to use AWB to perform genfixes on files and the files I post. I have AWB permission on enwiki and patroller rights here on Commons. Thank you. --Takipoint123 (💬) 22:38, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I am planning to use AWB for genfixes and syntax errors (e.g. missing brackets etc) which AWB makes it a lot easier to catch. I will likely not use it to change categories yet, which I know can be controversial. Takipoint123 (💬) 20:51, 31 October 2024 (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’d like to request file mover rights so I can help my community promptly according to the guidelines by maintaining accuracy and consistency. I have 2K+ edits on Wikicommons with a significant number of uploads. Thank you. Gitartha.bordoloi (talk) 10:08, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You've only made two FM requests this year. Could you please tell me why that is? And if you were to get the rights, how do you think that would increase your activity here? Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 17:05, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Despite their lower activity this year, they've made a lot of good FM requests in the past. They should be considered for Autopatrolled too. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 08:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I see and make many mistakes that I formerly asked others to correct, I think with 70.000 pictures published I ought to do more myself. Thank you. Dosseman (talk) 08:23, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I often come across old uploads of mine that have inaccurate or inadequate filenames, and instead of inconveniencing others by requesting to rename each and every one of them I would like to be able to rename them myself. Thanks! Elise240SX (talk) 01:29, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For my past and future uploads on behalf of the KB national library of the Netherlands into Category:Media contributed by Koninklijke Bibliotheek, I would like to be able to rename files to make file name conventions/syntax more descriptive and consistent between files. I would like to be able to do that in bulk, without having to burden admins/filemovers with 100s of requests/move-templates. Thank you. OlafJanssen (talk) 13:05, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
