The '''autopatrol user right''' is similar to the <tvar name="1"><code>patrol</code></tvar> right, in that it is a specific user right which involves marking an action as patrolled. The differences are:
* that autopatrollers do not have the ability to actively mark actions as patrolled; instead, only their own actions are automatically marked as patrolled.
* some gadgets allowing to make a great number of modifications are accessible to autopatrollers<ref>[[Help talk:VisualFileChange.js#Error in installation instructions?]]</ref> (for example: [[Help:VisualFileChange.js|''VisualFileChange'']]).
This right is commonly granted to users who aren't necessarily involved in patrolling pages, edits or uploads, but who create a high level of quality pages or uploads that do not require patrolling by other users. This reduces the backlog of [[<tvar name="2">Special:NewPages</tvar>|Newpage]] and {{pg|Commons:Anonymous edits}}. This right is also granted to users who make a large amount of good edits that do not need to be patrolled, to reduce the clutter on Watchlists.
