Wiktionary:Whitelist

For the spam whitelist, see MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist.

This “whitelist voting” page is a mechanism for proposing and publicizing the addition of a user to one of the following groups:

• Autopatroller
• Extended mover
• Patroller
• Rollbacker
• Template editor

The principle is to have as “lightweight” a vote as possible without succumbing to any one person’s whims. The existence and purpose of this page were made official by Wiktionary:Votes/pl-2008-09/Whitelisted users autopatrol; the details of its functioning are fairly well established now, but still not official per se.

See also: Special:Log/rights.

Procedural notes

Procedure:

1. One administrator nominates a user for a particular user group.
2. A second administrator approves the nomination and adds that user to the proposed group using Special:UserRights.
3. Any administrator can recommend a defer to a nomination; after a week, the nomination may be repeated.

Archiving:

The guidelines are: remove entries here that are stagnant for two or more weeks. Remove whitelisted entries after a couple of days.

  Comment: I've had to clean up a couple of edits like this that seem to indicate that they're not bothering to check their work, and here they didn't notice that they had already done the same edit months before. Chuck Entz (talk) 05:41, 2 October 2025 (UTC)
