• Reason: Reason: A good evening to all reading this. I am Contributor2020, (previously Contributers2020) applying for the privilege of license reviewer. I am currently autopatrolled and a file mover on the Commons, amassing over 3500+ edits, (a small fraction of them being bot-like, such as some mass uploading from flickr), and have been here since 4 years. I believe I am in capacity to do maintenance work since from the last request, I have forced myself to divert my focus on deletion requests and also have reported tens, if not hundreds copyright violations in the past year and also have dealt with tagging no permission files. I believe I have done a great job as a file mover, and I do think that I will do justice to the privilege of License Reviewer too. I am also a part of Commons Photographers User Group. From my last request for the post, I have learnt and understood deeply of COM:FOP, de minimis, COM:TOO and also how can I deal with files who's license has been changed from a license acceptable in Commons to the license which isn't, especially when it actually happened with me. I have also understood how I can detect fake metadata by comparing it with the contributions of the user. I am learning many things every day, even things which are very minor. I am very happy and would be extremely prompt to answer your question. Toodles! Contributor2020^{Talk to me here!} 10:58, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Question @Contributor2020: Hello, can you please clarify how many times you have applied for LR rights? A previous request mentions "I guess I have applied 4 times for this post." // sikander { talk } 🦖 13:27, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So:-

14:43, 11 September 2020 (UTC): This was my first request however I personally do not count it as it was when I started contributing on Commons after migrating from Wikipedia, and I was kind of panicked after seeing a bunch of warnings on the talk page of some files may get deleted (it was because I was not applying the proper license on the Upload Wizard, however none of them were deleted)

07:47, 16 June 2021 (UTC) : This was my second request, I do also personally do not count it as I still didn't understand that I needed much, much more activity then I was needing to (it was my key takeaway after the third request just after a month or so).

03:52, 28 July 2021 (UTC) : This was my third request, where I tried to convince people that I have beneficial activity but failed because of reason of the second request.

08:35, 4 May 2022 (UTC) : This was my fourth request , I had showed activity, but I was told to reapply after 2 years of 2021 but still did it after 1 year. This request taught me patience, and to keep calm, to keep my attitude in check and always be calm (things I have ensured after many people brutally attacking me with racism and pure nonsense sock puppetry attacks).

After that, I haven't made any requests for license reviewer, and ensured that I have the proper experience and activity to do the same. The first two requests were what I believe, immature and the last two requests were declined by my lack of experience in the subject and lack of patience and obedience.
I have tried to fix things up after these requests, and while I am still learning, I have learnt great things with my 4 years of experience.

TL;DR - This is my 5th request. Contributor2020^{Talk to me here!} 13:57, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Given it's been nearly two days past closure time, I'll wait for the first vote to pop in to close this favourably or not. Bedivere (talk) 14:52, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
•  Support I see that the user has the number of editions to be a license reviewer, If you have the knowledge, you will gain more knowledge when you are a license reviewer.---Aurelio de Sandoval (Mensajes aquí please) 17:05, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Granted. No opposition. FitIndia ^Semi-retired 17:13, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Reason: I like looking at images on commons and checking whether they are properly licenced, as their is quite a backlog on YouTube files needing review I think that I could help fix that.--Mewhen123 (talk) 18:52, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

•  Oppose - You uploaded a copyvio today. Also, this copyvio from last month. Seawolf35 (talk) 19:20, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
•  Support The copyvio thing happens to any user and several times, even I have several like that, we are human and we make mistakes, even the administrators have had that detail. Furthermore, the user, apart from having 2 years in Wikimedia Commons, has more than 12,000 editions, I think he can gain more experience if he is a license reviewer.---Aurelio de Sandoval (Mensajes aquí please) 23:16, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
•  Oppose Aurelio, your comment is both irresponsible and out of the line. The right is not for gaining experience. He is not to gain experience by using the tool. It comes with great responsibility and only those who have demonstrated experience and knowledge are to be trusted with it. I am surprised you came with this reasoning given that only a short time ago you offered yourself as administrator. Basically per Seawolf35, uploading copyvios, as recently as today, is unacceptable and an obvious reason not to trust with this tool. This does not mean Mewhen123 may not get the experience and knowledge later. Just not now. --Bedivere (talk) 01:07, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

•  Not done: Closing this a few hours earlier because I see no chances to pass and there is no reason to keep this ball hanging for no good result but same. The obvious reasons include issues such as copyright violation - and license reviewing has much to do with copyrights. Feel free to re-apply once you have gained enough knowledge related to copyright and demonstrated it through your contributions. ─ Aafī (talk) 02:03, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
