User:TheThomanski

I am primarily active in WikiProject Eurovision and want to improve protected templates such as Template:Infobox song contest national year, Template:Escyr, and Template:Country in the Eurovision Song Contest. Furthermore I would love to contribute with others if needed. As a software engineer I have a passion in templates and modules.

I have about 2,500 total edits on Wikipedia of which more than 300 are in the module and template namespaces. I have edited 6 sandbox pages, however I have only 3 edit request. I have never received blocks and I've definitely been editing more than one year. — TheThomanski | t | c | 01:37, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Standard Guidelines review:
  1. Green tickY (guideline: >1 year, applicant: 7 year)
  2. Green tickY (guideline: >1000 edits, applicant: 2500)
  3. Green tickY (guideline: >150 template edits, applicant: 316)
  4. Green tickY (guideline: !<6 months, applicant: never)
  5. Green tickY (guideline: 3 sandboxes, applicant: ~5)
  6. Red XN (guideline: 5 requests, applicant: 2)
I only count two edit requests: Template_talk:Infobox_song_contest_national_year#Template-protected_edit_request_on_29_January_2021, Template_talk:US$#Template-protected_edit_request_on_27_December_2022. Not sure what the third one is supposed to be. And both of those are years ago. You would make a more convincing case if you edit-requested a few of the improvements you would like to make now. * Pppery * it has begun... 02:25, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The third one is at Template_talk:Eurovision_Song_Contest_year#Template-protected_edit_request_on_28_March_2021, which you even implemented :) Damn, I didn't realise it's been years since those (how has it been so long?) But fair enough, if it's really neccesary to make more edit requests then I can do a couple more in a bit. — TheThomanski | t | c | 06:55, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done for now. For the next couple (or more) changes you would like to make to a template-protected page, go ahead and submit edit requests. After that, feel free to reapply at any time. SilverLocust 💬 05:33, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
