Before making a request here, you should be aware that your account only needs to exist for four days and make ten edits and it will be automatically confirmed. Since the bar for automatic confirmation is deliberately quite low the vast majority of requests here are denied. Unless you are requesting confirmation for a legitimate alternate account your request will almost certainly be denied. Alternatives are presented below:
Are you here to solely upload an image? Please make a request at Files for upload for non-free images or use the same username and password you have here to upload free images at Wikimedia Commons.
Are you here because you want to edit a page, but the page is protected from editing? With no track record for your account there is no basis for knowing if we should confirm you early. 95% of Wikipedia articles are not protected, so you can dive right into those or use {{edit protected}} to request edits on the article's talk page

I wanna make articles about burmese singer with photo there are very few articles about Burmese singer on Wikipedia Zyle Zyle (talk) 10:54, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Not done It's a laudable goal. However, please ensure a) all articles are about notable individuals; b) they are all sourced from reliable sources from the very beginning; c) meet the requirements in WP:BLP, and, d) are created either in WP:AFC or draftspace before they become a "live" article the panda ₯’ 11:10, 20 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I am interested in editing a semi-protected page, to be specific, the 'Nicki Minaj' wikipedia page. The page is not up-to-date, lacks a lot of important information and some things are missing. Example: Minaj changed her whole look from outrageous, wearing heavy make-up, wigs and crazy outfits, to a soft, natural look with her natural hair. The change was a major topic and is an important step in her career yet there is nothing to be found on the page, when looking at the 'public image' section she is still potrayed as the artist she was 2 years ago, when it comes to her look. This is the reason I request confirmed rights. I will add reliable sources to the page and won't change the accurate, core information.

Not done - If the file you want to upload is available under a free license, it should be uploaded to our free media repository, the Commons. You do not need any special permissions to upload there, and you can use the same username and password you use here. If it is not available under a free license, it should be requested using the Files for Upload process, which does not require any special permissions.

There are several pages which I edit (and others which I plan to) that are subject to frequent vandalism. I would like to semi-protect them to protect from vandalism while still being able to contribute legitimate info to it myself (it is not practical to make a request for each edit considering the amount of editing I do) as well as other legitimate contributers. I would also like the ability to rename (move) some pages because their article titles are not appropriate. IsLioTr (talk) 19:51, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Not done You must be an administrator to change the protection level of pages. Suggesting that your edits are superior to others edits is odd, based on your contributions so far. Note: if you continue to go around calling other editors "Sunni herectics" or similar insults to other editors, then you won't be welcome on this site for much longer the panda ₯’ 20:49, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment:I took the page protection as requests at WP:RPP. Page moves are a different story. Mlpearc (open channel) 20:58, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Note: The term 'Sunni heretics' was used in reference to extremists, several of whom have since been banned for vandalism, who were blanking pages because the content of the page went against their religious beliefs. There are also Shiah heretics, Christians heretics, Jewish heretics, Hindu heretics, Atheist heretics, etc. A heretic is defined by Dictionary.com as "a professed believer who maintains religious opinions contrary to those accepted by his or her church or rejects doctrines prescribed by that church." It was in no way an 'insult', and several of them have since been banned for vandalism.
This is not to refute you, but rather to clarify since you misunderstood the details of my request, so that you may properly comprehend it and reconsider your decision based on what the request actually was. Thanks. IsLioTr (talk) 20:19, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - Hi, and thank you for creating an account to edit Wikipedia. Although I fully understand your desire to dive right in, many of our articles are semi-protected because they are controversial, prone to vandalism, or other reasons. As a new editor with few edits, it might be wise to discuss your edits on the article talkpage in order to gain consensus for your edits, and then use {{Edit semi-protected}} to request the edit be performed. I only recommend this until you're used to the challenges of reliable sources, the biographies of living persons policy, and other similar policies. The good news is that fewer than 5% of Wikipedia articles are protected; this means that 95% of the articles can use your help right now! Also from you comment it's clear you have a conflict of interest, and should read the plain and simple conflict of interest guide. ArmbrustThe Homunculus 05:53, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
