I want to assist in the AfC process. I have done similar things in the past and know the policies. I may have made mistakes with content in the past but I should be good now. ^{[Username Needed]} 12:28, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to help with AfC. I am well versed in most if not all content policies and guidelines, have plenty of article creation experience, plenty of experience critiquing or improving new articles, and reasonable experience at XfD. Thanks. Lopifalko (talk) 18:32, 1 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I had a rough start to Wiki, the experienced editors did not explain most of why the opposed a lot of the contributions I have made and almost discouraged me to continue on here; since then I have a much greater understanding, co-operated a lot better with others too. Hopefully my rough start will mean I will be more understanding to new users than others. Created a ton of articles, improved tons more and have a string of green in my contributions list, been on here a long time. Have partaken in some AfD dicussions, proposed some deletions. I'll probably be sticking to sports mostly as I'm familiar with WP:FPL WP:FOOTY etc. and that is where I generally contribute Abcmaxx (talk) 18:52, 2 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've have been in interest of making redirect requests, and i'm ready to review them now. TheWinRat (talk) 16:51, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Thank-you for your interest. With no AfD experience it will be very difficult to evaluate the chances of a page surviving an AfD. Also, no article creations at all. Come back when you have some experience with page creation and deletion. Thanks. Legacypac (talk) 22:17, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to help out with AfC. I've been around for awhile, been an editor for about 10 years, with varying interests over time, including at AfD, reducing the backlog of unreferenced BLPs, as a creator of the WP:TOP25, but always and foremost as a creator and editor of articles. I don't know if AfC will give me an opportunity to encourage new editors to write good articles off the bat that don't need AfC intervention, but its a hope of mine.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 15:14, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to get more involved and believe I meet the basic AfC requirements. I also have a decent record at Articles for Deletion and while my personal article creations have been mostly stubs I haven't had any issues with them (except for a single deletion of an article I made early in my Wikipedia career). I've read the reviewing instructions and requirements. Wolfson5 (talk) 06:55, 11 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to help for AFC as i am reviewing new pages through NPP and i'm now familiar with AFC CSD and XFD policy. So i want you to grant me these right. Azkord (talk) 17:35, 12 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done for now. I'm a little concerned with the decline at AFC, the block, and other notices on your talk page (mostly regarding CSD nominations). I'd like to see a bit more positive activity at AFD and a good CSD log (enable it in your preferences). Primefac (talk) 23:39, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Primefac: AFC is declined cause they couldn't review the page and has not given any suitable reason and suggested for DRV and about my block it was long time ago cause of vandalism and now i have rollback right as i have learned many things regarding that and there are two csd which i filed too soon cause i found that they were not suitable while i was patrolling through new pages feed.

I can help with the backlog. The Draft:FIS Cross-Country World Cup records and statistics is in my area of expertise since I competed in Alpine World Cup and know a reasonable amount about cross country, so I looked at how I could review it. I have participated in a few AfD discussions recently, and fixed up the articles so that they were kept. Spam/Junk is easy to spot and delete. I understand WP:AFD and WP:MFD. I think it is important to help those that have bothered to go through the draft process and am happy to put the effort in. Fixing things is more work, and I have helped with some good article reviews and the good article process has some similarities to operating the review script process, and I have read and understand the instructions.RonaldDuncan (talk) 19:23, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Following up from my request in October, I'm now rerequesting as I have gained quite a bit of more recent experience voting in AfDs, CSDing spam drafts (and reporting problem accounts associated), and moving drafts to proper titles as they get submitted. I do apparently still have AFCH access due to being grandfathered in, and I have declined a few blatant problematic drafts as I've encountered them, but I've held off on any large-scale reviewing until I get approved. I'm hoping I can get moved to the active list and get the NPP bit since I'm going to have a lot of free time for a few weeks over winter break to work on reviewing. Nathan2055^{talk - contribs} 10:12, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If you can make AfC comments and decline you are on the active list. No one is complaining about your work so go to work on the backlog. Legacypac (talk) 12:08, 23 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I had been an AfC reviewer for a brief period in the past, before going inactive due to RL issues (and hence getting my name automatically removed from the list). I believe in interacting with the new editors submitting drafts and guiding them, and indeed have done this in the past.

I am also interested in the working of the AFCH script - and contributing to its development if I feel like it. I have been contributing to Twinkle for quite some time and am looking for more work to do in the realm of user scripts on Wikipedia.

Thanks for your consideration, and Happy new year to you! SD0001 (talk) 17:29, 31 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User:ToBeFree

• ToBeFree (talk · contribs · xtools · pages created · logs ^{(block • csd • prod)} · afd) (add user)

I would like to apply for probation, for 100 decisions instead of a time limit. During the last few months, I have helped users with their drafts at #wikipedia-en-help, and I have used the "Copypatrol" tool to identify copyright violations, often in the draft namespace. Pure violations appear as red links in my CSD log; I am unsure how to provide a list of the revision deletions. Via IRC, Snowycats has offered me mentoring as an introduction to the AfC process.

• In the first phase of the mentoring, Snowycats will provide links to un-processed revisions of drafts that he has previously declined or accepted. Without having a look at the history, I will tell Snowycats via IRC how I would have decided, and why.
• In the second phase of the mentoring, I will send draft links to Snowycats. Snowycats will check my decisions before I make them on Wikipedia.
• If both phases have been successful, Snowycat will likely drop supervision for the last part of the 100 decisions.

I will not use the AfC helper script without supervision unless Snowycats has allowed me to do so in phase 2. I have read through the reviewing instructions, the on-wiki documentation of the helper script, and the extended documentation page in the "afch-rewrite" GitHub repository.

After 100 decisions, I'll report back here. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 23:39, 1 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

 Comment: I verify that I have offered ToBeFree informal mentorship as a possible new reviewer at AFC. He has demonstrated a high understanding of the instructions for reviewing drafts and has asked appropriate questions on the parts that seemed confusing. I believe he will make a great addition to help with the AFC backlog. If there needs to be further discussion, I can frequently be found on AFC and will check back here if pinged. Thank you!

I would like to be an AfC reviewer because I have met the criteria as I have 500 edits on my edit count, my Wikipedia account is approximately 2.42 years old, I have thoroughly read the instructions and guidelines for AfC reviewing, and I have made notes.

Also, I apologize for stupid things I have done in the past, and I have created many drafts that have been declined. I'll promise to try my best in AfC reviewing. Everyone makes mistakes! :)

Thank you for your decision on this request. ShadowFreddy1987 (talk) 02:49, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

•  Not done with 339 edits to mainspace [1] you don't yet meet the minimum requirements. 500 Mainspace edits, not total edits is the bare minimum experience. I suggest extensive participation at AfD and MfD and another couple hundred article edits before requesting AfC again. Good luck and thanks for your interest in AfC.
