Zppix - Revocation of Rights (Sysop)

 * 18:37, 30 October 2020 (UTC) ］ |

User: Zppix ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: sysop

Reasoning for request
Alright, let me start off by saying that this decision to post a revocation of rights request was so not made lightly or easy in any case. I understand there will be mixed opinions about whether this is warranted and whether I am mistaken to even take such action as posting this request. That's fine, but I will give in detail the reasoning for my posting of this proposal.

Over the past month or so, Zppix has made some very questionable decisions, which has apparently resulted in hi
 * 1) Feeling as though he is not limited by the policy to which he is bound by;
 * 2) Failing to assume good faith to new users on Meta;
 * 3) Failing to adequately warn good faith users who make mistakes user talk pages, seemingly preferring to take the action which requires the least amount of effort (i.e., a block);
 * 4) Feeling as though he is impervious to error when other administrators question his administrator actions and/or decline to act; and,
 * 5) Being unable to differentiate between his Meta administrator and Global Sysop roles, which suggest role conflict

Firstly, some examples of this include Zppix has been very rude to newcomer users and has not been assuming any good faith, and has been far to quick to take action against simple good faith mistakes with no attempt to engage with them beforehand.[src] There was also this example[src] in which he blocked a user for a week, without warning, merely for trying, in good-faith, to create a user page and being blocked by an abuse filter. He also ignored a warning from another Meta bureaucrat on his own talk page, [src] to which he obviously saw per is own responses to another user to that very same thread, [src] but had no effort to improve upon his behavior and to seemingly have no regard for John's warning, which is absolutely unacceptable for a Meta administrator to disregard a warning from a Meta bureaucrat or even any fellow Meta administrator, least of all one who is also a steward, like that.

Most recently he issued a local Meta block against a user which he had been previously arguing with on his talk page [src] and on Discord. On IRC, during a conversation with other users, Zppix even acknowledged that he should not take action against this user because he was personally invested in it. [src] However, he seemed to not care and blocked the user anyway.[src] That is an example of an action which he should've not done and waited for approval to block him from whomever he claimed to have talked to. [src], [src], and [src] It is worth noting that Zppix also during this same IRC conversation, apparently requested another Global Sysop or Steward globally lock his account for something occurring in Meta alone as well as his own personal annoyance with the user, letting personal opinion dictate his actions as a Meta administrator. The fact that he feels the user should either be globally locked or locally blocked on Meta suggests he either doesn't understand the difference between the purpose of a global lock and a local block, or, even more problematic, he apparently feels as though he can do either. src After seemingly failing to get another volunteer to globally lock this user, he took his own local action on Meta, once again, showing his disregard for the community and authority.src

As a final note, I would like to add that far too often, the log entries Zppix gives are very vague.[src]

Additionally, should this revocation request pass as successful, the community additionally requests that a bureaucrat and steward review the circumstances surrounding Zppix' global account locks and Meta blocks in the past 30-60 days (steward or bureaucrat discretion applies here), excluding spam only accounts, to ensure that they were all justified and appropriate to the policy infractions claimed.


 * Note: Given that this involves both his Global Sysop and Meta administrator roles, there is also a companion revocation request for Zppix'  Global Sysop user group at Requests for global rights, in which you're encouraged to review and express a view.

Additional proof/explanation

 * Regarding the IRC conversation, which you can see in the section below, Zppix originally requested that that user be globally locked. That is a 100% inappropriate action towards a user who was doing good faith edits, and only made mistakes on Meta alone, absolutely nothing to actually warrent a global lock. And I have absolutely no idea his rationale for attempting to get someone else to globally lock a user where a global lock is not warrented.

Support
Per my proposal. 23:26, 29 October 2020 (UTC) ］ | Hello community, we have an extremely troubling problem at this time. A meta administrator/global sysop by the name of has decided to abuse his powers. This must be dealt with urgently and swiftly, as Zppix has caused nothing but chaos and hurt towards many members of the Miraheze community. There are many examples of Zppix's abuse of power, but I will share a select few with you in this message. For in-depth info, see User talk:Zppix, but for now we'll settle with the basics.
 * He Blocked a user for, and I quote: "Continuing to spam their wiki after being asked to stop". He was not involved in that wiki, got no talk page messages about it, and decided to intervene WITHOUT communicating with the user to either notify them of the block or discuss their behavior. A user requested an un-ban on a wiki and Zppix immediately deleted, with the reason for deletion being simply "No". He overrode a community's decision and deleted another request about a user's ban, citing "Code of Conduct violations by topic creator". You say, oh, that's ok as it's only 3 mistakes in his reign. Well, no. That all has happened in the past TWO WEEKS that has been remembered. Imagine in five years what he has done that hasn't been remembered.
 * He blocked me on Meta ONE HOUR after I had last edited, and also instructed to ban me from TestWiki because I deleted a page. Just a notice: I deleted it with a 's (a consul) permission there. On Meta, the co-founder of Miraheze,  had to step in to get Zppix to stop. He has harassed users on Discord either on servers or in private DMs, calling them a "pain in the ass", or a "whiny b***h".
 * Quotes from John in User talk:Zppix reads:
 * "I am here to address the attitude of an administrator who despite being asked to consider their harsh and heavy handed approach and dislike to engaging with users in a manner to prevent escalation, has chosen to ignore such advice and act in a similar manner to which I have received complaints about from members of the community and fellow administrators in relation to their use of global and local permissions. Since there does not seem to be a willingness to engage in the matter, I will now consider whether more formal processes are necessary to address the matter."
 * "You’ve blocked them for things not even related to the capacity you are acting in then? It seems like you’re trying to justify being called out for acting in a manner not suitable to the role you’re acting in by trying to get out every defence than answer the core solid question of why you blocked a user, an hour after they last edited, in relation to a conflict you were in with them against the advice of your colleagues. Until you can provide a satisfactory answer to that, excuses are not good enough to justify this action."
 * Quite obviously, Zppix has shown no willingness to try and fix his actions, instead resorting to blocking as a way of minimalizing opposition to him. He blocked me because "I wanted to". This is not appropriate behavior that a representative of Miraheze, a Global Sysop, should be portraying. To be blunt, this is an abuse of power. Global Sysops were created to assist Stewards, not outright ignore them, especially when they post on YOUR talk page, looking for an answer but not receiving one. For every one of those reasons and more, I am voting for a full revocation of rights from Zppix, which includes, but is not limited to: Global Sysop, Meta Admin, System Administrator, and Wiki Creator. For Zppix, when you next request rights, make sure you can be responsible and kind with them. Thank you. 23:39, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) While I believe that his block against BlackWidowMovie0000Editor was valid, I believe the hostility concerns displayed are problematic. There are other questionable judgements calls as well. Naleksuh (talk) 23:49, 29 October 2020 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1)  I think he deserves another chance. Waldo (talk) 05:22, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 2)  While I approve of the revocation of Zppix as a Global Sysop, I am willing to give it a last chance as a Meta administrator. Added to that, I don't really like that we make two revocation requests at the same time. It's not cool. HeartsDo (Talk || Global || Wiki Creator) 07:19, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 3)  Contrary to my above statement, I believe Zppix should be given one last chance to be responsible with Meta Sysop rights.  15:35, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 4)  I supported and thought that Zppix needed a break from Global Sysop however in this instance I agree with HeartsDo that he deserves another chance as Meta administrator and that it would be unfair to remove both rights at the same time. I disagree with some things I have seen him do on Meta but will be willing to give him another chance to acknowledge the constructive criticism that has been give to him by the community this time. DeeM28 (talk) 16:44, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 5)  I'm willing to give Zppix a change on local sysop, I don't feel like he needs his sysop revoked.  17:30, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

User: Gomdoli ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki creator Reason: I joined miraheze, 7 September 2020. And I have contributed to miraheze wikis (including the miraheze meta) for several months. There are 24 Wiki Creators here, but I think about three ~ five seem to be active. I want to shorten the period between the time of the wiki being requested and the time of the wiki being accepted and created.

Additional comments: none

Thanks. Gomdoli (talk) 08:47, 2 November 2020 (UTC) Other users feel free to support/oppose/abstain from this RfP but please state your reasoning below.
 * Comments/Questions

Abstain

 * 1)  Ordinarily I would support all wiki creator requests where I get a good sense the candidate would exercise good judgment in interpreting wiki requests and measuring them against Content Policy; however, given that the requestor's nomination statement is void of any comment that demonstrates their understanding of Content Policy and also that the requestor recently wanted to convert his private testing wiki into an unauthorized fork of Public Test Wiki, do feel like the candidate would do well to reach out to an existing wiki creator and engage in a mentorship, with situational-based probing questions that shows the candidate can fully interpret wiki requests and measure them against Content Policy, and try again, perhaps as a third party nomination, in another couple months. As well, due to the activity level of a handful of wiki creators, we're meeting or exceeding our de facto service level agreement ("SLA") standards. Dmehus (talk) 15:26, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 2) *I thought I knew wiki create and Content Policy well, but I wasn't. Thank you. :) Gomdoli (talk) 05:39, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1)  you clearly don't understand our wiki creating policies, nor do you have a good reason towards your request I would suggest getting to know our wiki creating policies before requesting wiki creator and not to mention you only have been at miraheze 1 month it's too early. --Cocopuff2018 (talk) 14:01, 2 November 2020 (UTC)

User: BlackWidowMovie0000Editor ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Bot Reason: I am requesting the bot permission because it will be easier to manage my wikis if the bot can block users, protect/delete pages when I'm not on the wiki. If a user vandalizes something, the bot can quickly revert, protect, and then block the account for page vandalism. If there isn't a bot, the user can keep on vandalizing until a sysop comes online and blocks the user. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlackWidowMovie0000Editor (talk • contribs) 16:39, 11 November 2020 UTC

 * The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * ❌ per User close policy. Though there is no minimum support ratio for wiki creator, consensus is clear here that the candidate's recent contraventions of user accounts policy and active partial block on Meta indicate concerns of trustworthiness. Candidate would be well advised to heed the concerns and put some distance between those contraventions and disruptive behaviour, and engage with an experienced wiki creator in a mentorship arrangement after a few months time.

User: BlackWidowMovie0000Editor ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki creator Reason: I am requesting this right because I believe I am ready to tackle the responsibilities of the Wiki creator. I have repeatedly read the Content Policy and the Wiki creator guide, and am ready to answer any questions anyone might have for me. I know that there are some who have issues with my trust level, but I promise I will be impartial, and responsible with these permissions. I realize some users will immediately write:, but I strongly urge you to reconsider, as I have grown familiar with the policies and all that is going on.  —［  ］［ Talk  |  Contributions  |  Guestbook  | Status:   00:51, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

 * Successful. John (talk) 18:28, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

User: R4356th ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki creator Reason: I live in Asia and when I visit Meta and look at the Recent Changes feed in the afternoon (usually 1 p.m.), I see several wikis have been requested (in the Farmer log, of course). These wikis usually get created within the next seven hours. I believe that these wiki requests should ideally be reviewed faster. I have read and understood the Content Policy and Wiki Creators' Guide. For these reasons, I believe I will be able to help Miraheze by reviewing requests and creating wikis, and minimising the wiki request response time in the process.

Additional comments: I currently have 1579 global edits, of which 1021 are on Meta (909 of them have been made in the past 30 days). I am a bureaucrat on Snap! Wiki and Batman Family Wiki. I am also active with translating on Meta. R4356th (talk) 20:46, 21 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Questions
 * 1) The problem with the Asian wiki requests isn't so much a time of day issue, but rather, an issue with the poor quality of the Google Translate machine translations. Can you describe how you would overcome this with respect to the Mandarin, Cantonese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Korean wiki requests? Dmehus (talk) 21:05, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I unfortunately do not know any of the languages you have mentioned above. If there are wiki requests in these languages, I would leave them for another Wiki Creator of that language. If they do not review the requests in a reasonable amount of time, I would review them myself after using at least two translating software to translate the description. R4356th (talk) 09:23, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) In your own words, explain to me each point in the Content Policy. Zppix (Meta &#124; Sysadmin &#124; talk to me) 22:00, 21 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I have explained the points below -
 * A wiki's main purpose cannot be for commercial activity. Wikis cannot be used for showing advertisements to visitors or users or spamming and search engine optimisation. However, wikis are allowed to have fundraiser-type sales and information regarding commercial activities.
 * Contents in wikis must be legal in the United Kingdom. This means various forms of contraband, content inciting violence and underage nudity cannot be present in a wiki. Additionally, wikis must not have any infringing content copyright.
 * A wiki must not have contents spreading unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people. All contents on wikis must be fairly balanced, meaningful or substantiated with independent referencing.
 * A wiki must not create problems for other wikis. A wiki must not have contents which tend to draw unwelcome attention to Miraheze, for example, hate speech, routine denial of service attacks, excessively violent content, or places in which illegal activity is discussed can create issues for other wikis like domain blacklisting, downtimes, excessive staff time usage and in search engine optimisation. A wiki must also not be an exact duplicate or fork of another wiki.
 * Miraheze has the permission of redistributing a wiki's contents. By hosting a wiki on Miraheze, the wiki founder grants Miraheze a limited, worldwide license to redistribute content from their wiki to the users they permit to access their site and to Miraheze personnel to ensure that Miraheze can provide service.
 * (I have not explained the points "Miraheze may delete unused and empty wikis" and "Public wikis should develop a content policy" because they have nothing to do with wiki creation.) R4356th (talk) 11:51, 22 November 2020 (UTC)

I don't get the best sense how you would action requests with an unclear purpose, scope, and/or topic, but in my discussions with you on Discord and on here on Meta Wiki, you've shown yourself to be both quite receptive and responsive to feedback from others, which is essential. Additionally, your response to my question was quite good and satisfied any reservation I may or may not have had following your initial self-nomination statement.

User: Shaunak Chakraborty ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki creator Reason: I am here on Miraheze from last 2 years, I'm an interwiki administrator and the owner of the third largest wiki Gyaanipedia on Miraheze. I want to handle especially the Indian wiki requests as the Indian Standard Time differs from another timezone so it will take time for wiki creation. As I told that I am on this platform since more than 2 years so you can trust me.

Additional comments: I have around 4700 global edits on Miraheze and want to serve Miraheze from my heart and get involve here so it's my humble request kindly give me in right. India is having the 2nd largest population in the world so the requests also will be more in number as compare with other countries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shaunak Chakraborty (talk • contribs) 07:52, 28 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Questions

Other users feel free to support/oppose/abstain from this RfP but please state your reasoning below.
 * Comments


 * 1)  Despite India's population being very large, there are not many requests from India. My timezone is just 30 minutes ahead of India and I do understand Hindi enough to review a Hindi request (but not the other languages which are spoken there with the exception of Bengali). And I usually do not see you here on Meta unless you have any issue with any wiki you run. So, I do not know whether to support this or not. But considering you have so many global edits, you may make a good wiki creator. I guess I am neutral for now. R4356th (talk) 11:14, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 2)  While the candidate is certainly active outside of Meta and no doubt very active in adding interwiki prefixes to the candidate's own Gyannipedia network of Miraheze customer wikis to the candidate's own wikis, the lack of Meta activity and activity on Discord precludes me from supporting. That being said, I also don't like opposing candidates I don't know, so  is, for better or for worse, where I have to sit here, as I cannot assess the candidate's understanding of Content Policy. I would point out, though, that as  pointed out, he is from your timezone. Together with him, myself, Naleksuh, HeartsDo, FireBarrier101, Zppix, MrJaroslavik, and other active wiki creators, I doubt you would have to wait more than an hour or two for a requested wiki to be approved and thus created Dmehus (talk) 14:27, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Dear I completely respect your statement, I knew the Content Policy completely. Although I have less edits on Meta but I truly believe that trust and believe stands more than edits which I gained since last 2 years, as I am an active user and have the largest number of edits on my wiki Gyaanipedia proves that I am a hard-working person. I know this, that I am a responsible person and I can be an excellent wiki creator so I should get a chance. Shaunak Chakraborty (talk) 15:57, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply. As I say, I don't have any opposition, but for me, I really can't assess your understanding of Content Policy based on your lack of recent Meta editing activity. Any wiki descriptions for wikis you've requested, similarly, don't give me any idea, particularly as they have been quite short. Not saying you need to have a great deal of Meta editing activity, but just a bit more. I would rather see you engage with an existing wiki creator privately on Discord or IRC over the next month or so, and then have that individual renominate you for wiki creator following that successful mentorship. Dmehus (talk) 16:01, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 1)  would like to see more global activity, first. Zppix (Meta &#124; Sysadmin &#124; talk to me) 17:45, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 2)  Waldo (talk) 18:36, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 3)  You have activity globally and I will not contest that, but, if you want to become wiki creator for me, you should have a minimum of activity here in Meta, I don't ask to be a patroller or something that request time, just to be here a little more or you can request a mentorship with a wiki creator as Dmehus says HeartsDo (Talk || Global || Wiki Creator) 06:27, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 4)  I would like to see you make more global edits and show us you understand our wiki creating policies first before becoming wiki creator --Cocopuff2018 (talk) 15:47, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
 * 5)  I don't know who you are. Gomdoli (talk) 06:32, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

 * 1)  I have only recently became aware of you, as such I can not quite support this request, however I can't oppose it either.  06:47, 1 December 2020 (UTC) ］ |
 * Dear &  I hope you people heard about Gyaanipedia which is one of the largest parody of Wikipedia in the world I mostly contribute there only. Shaunak Chakraborty (talk)
 * 1)  I have said many times before that I do not like discouraging users and so I would not like this comment to be treated as that. I do have some issues that unfortunately do not play in the favour of me supporting this request. First, I agree with R4356th comments above, that as far as I have noticed there are not many Indian requests so saying that you would like to mostly handle those is an issue and would mean you would not be handling many requests at all. I would like to see more about handling wiki requests in other languages, not a complete focus on Indian requests. Second, I do not see why contributing to the Gyanipedia wikis would really have anything to do with a users' notoriety on Meta. Finally it would be a good idea if a user who is more experienced with wiki creating and the Content Policy (I am not) would ask some questions to see your knowledge. I do think that if you are more active on Meta and do show you are willing to engage with non-Indian requests too and that you understand the Content Policy you can become wiki creator at a later time.

 * Questions
 * Please answer the following wiki request questions in terms of how you'd handle the request (i.e., accept, decline, request more information, or consult with another wiki creator) and why:
 * Request description translates directly from a Chinese variant language, "to expose truth and scandal."
 * A wiki which proposes to compare and contrast extreme political ideologies, including Nazism, Neo-Nazism, fascism, Stalinism, and Communism.
 * Request description reads "Pepelaugh" and sitename reads "Unified Freedom Front of Russia."
 * Request description reads "I want to share information about Grape SMP."
 * Request description reads "Migrating from Fandom over to here."
 * Request description reads "To test MediaWiki" and sitename is the requestor's username.
 * In addition, I haven't seen you on Discord or IRC. Are you on one (or both) platforms? Though not required, it is recommended, perhaps highly, as wiki creator collaboration is essential, and wiki talk page discussions are sub-optimal for quick messages. --Dmehus (talk) 05:22, 29 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Reject as "What truths and scandals do you want to reveal them? And what exactly does it mean to create this wiki? Go back to Special:RequestWikiQueue/(Requests Number) and add content to your request description. Please add. Thank you."
 * Reject as "Why do you do this? And what if those politicians see these things? Go back to Special:RequestWikiQueue/(Request Number) and add them to the description. Please. Thank you."
 * Reject as "What does this wiki do? What is this wiki for? Please explain in more detail. Go back to Special:RequestWikiQueue/(Request Number) and add it to the description. Thank you."
 * Reject as "What does it mean to share the topic of Grape SMP and what content do you want to post? Add it to Special:RequestWikiQueue/(Number). Thank you."
 * Reject as "Please post the URL of the original Fandom wiki. What is the wiki for? Add it to Special:RequestWikiQueue/(Number). Thank you."
 * Guide to TestWiki--Waki285 (talk) 09:04, 29 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Please answer my following questions:
 * In your own words, explain the various points of the Content policy, and why they are important.

 * "The primary purpose of your wiki cannot be for commercial activity." ... This is because Miraheze is just a "wiki" service, and spam and commercial use deviate from its intended purpose.
 * "Miraheze does not host any content that is illegal in the United Kingdom" ... These are against not only Britain but also the public order and morals of us humans. Also, in some countries (including the United Kingdom) this can violate the law.
 * "Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate or rumours against a person or group of people" ... This creates a situation where if one wiki puts unwelcome content on a wiki farm, other wikis will also be penalized for SEO, domain blacklisting, and system down. In the worst case, Miraheze itself may be seen as evil. for that reason.
 * "Public wikis should develop a content policy" ... This policy is a minimum policy, so it means that you must follow the ones mentioned so far.
 * Let's get back to the beginning and read Wiki creators guide. If you still don't understand, talk to another wiki creator. --Waki285 (talk) 21:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

 * 1)  ✅. You had a minor error on one question, but mainly relating to your reason not being sufficient; however, I did not deduct any points. You had one question wrong, but you can discuss with me on Discord or IRC which one that is. Other than that, together with your Japanese translation work, you have the shown the capacity for learning and taking advice from more experienced users, which is crucial to me. So, please do consider joining either IRC via IRCCloud or Discord, as I do feel that would be very helpful and mutually beneficial should your wiki creator request prove successful. Moreover, we do need more Japanese speaking wiki creators, so this will be helpful. Dmehus (talk) 14:51, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

 * 9)  At first I hesitated to support this request because while users above say that the user is very active on Meta from what I can see this activity is in relation to translation almost exclusively. I would have liked to see more interacting with users. The two reasons that convinced me to weakly support are the following. First, I do agree that there is a need for more Japanese speaking wiki creators because of some departures. Second, I think that the responses given to the various questions were satisfactory and do demonstrate an understanding of the Content Policy. I would still prefer that the user focuses on the Japanese requests for a initial period of time and after he/she gains experience they could also assist with other languages.

User: DarkMatterMan4500 ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: sysop Reason: Well, considering how I've been on Miraheze since January 29th, 2020, I've gotten to know this community much better than I originally anticipated. I mean, after all, I've helped rollback/revert vandalism on some of the wikis, reported obvious abuse of multiple accounts, along with fighting vandalism (by reporting them to the CVT team on Discord, I feel as though this type of permission would be good enough for me. And if you have a look at my contributions globally, you can see that I have made over 8,000 edits all across the platform. If you have any questions or concerns involving me, please drop me a line, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks.

 * It's not clear from this request why you're requesting Meta administrator, since your reasons discuss global activity. I'd personally recommend reaching out to me or another administrator and discuss ways in which you can volunteer on Meta first (i.e., as a patroller, translation administrator, or some other capacity even.

Integer (Wiki creator)

 * The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * Successful. Two opposes, one raises concerns regarding the candidate while the other raises concerns regarding users that does not include the candidate. Given the community comments in support however, this meets the criteria for appointment. I recommend Integer reviews the opposes and the associated comments in order to improve. John (talk) 22:29, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

User: Integer ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki creator Reason: The reasons I believe Integer should be a creator are many. The foremost is the many languages he knows. I am sure that Miraheze gets requests for the wiki's in lots of different languages, and he apparently knows 13. That is a lot, especially for your average person. Along with that, he has a strong leadership personality but knows when to back down a little. Also, based on my experience both on Meta and on Ingenpedia, he is just a helpful person.

Additional comments: 1. You can see the languages he knows on his user page. 2. I do (honestly) believe that he does in fact deserve this role, and will help out a lot. He is already super helpful on Ingenpedia and has thousands of global edits. Thanks for everyone taking the time to read! Yours truly, --RONALDOFAN (talk) 04:19, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

 * 1) What would you do if a wiki request for a public wiki had the following description: "I am requesting this wiki for a cool project that I have"? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 21:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 2) What about "Horrible Twitter Users - a wiki that lists the worst users on Twitter and says why they're terrible"? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 21:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 3) What about "Terrible Organisation Wiki - a wiki that lists awful organizations and describes why they are horrible"? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 21:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 4) What about a private wiki whose description says "Personal wiki for notes"? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 21:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Answers
 * 1) Answer to #1: Deny; Scope and Purpose Needs to be More Clear.
 * 2) Answer to #2: Under the Miraheze Content Policy: Miraheze does not host wikis with the sole purpose to spread unsubstantiated insult, hate, or rumors against a person or group of people. Therefore, this should be denied for violating the content policy.
 * 3) Answer to #3: This is certainly a decision on a tightrope. However, I do think that this may be a violation of the same policy as above. Aside from that, this could, in theory, become unethical, Plus, this is heavily opinionated and could easily end up violating the same or another policy. Therefore this request should be denied without further ado.
 * 4) Answer to #4: This is not a violation of any of the available Miraheze policies, but a wiki just for notes is a little excessive, and I would probably point the user towards note-taking apps, or ask them to further refine the scope. This would be one to put on hold until a (reasonable) reply. Integer  talk 01:34, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
 * For #2 and #3, it can be reasonable to ask them if they would make it a must for all editors of the wiki (including the requestor themselves) to reference their claims. If the answer is yes and you feel confident then the request can be approved. For #4, there are actually a pretty good number of such wikis on Miraheze. 09:50, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

 * 1)  Thank you so much for the nomination! I would be glad to have this role. I certainly would be happy to volunteer using my extensive knowledge of many languages. I also have read the entire Content Policy and do believe I have an understanding of it. I would be glad to be a wiki creator and would be able to help at least 12 hours a day, with quick acceptions/rejections. I will respect the decision of the community, and appreciate the interest!

 * 1)  Certainly valuable insight into policies; also familiar with assorted languages, another valuable asset. Good edit volume on Meta, as well as globally. Overall, worth it. --PortugeseManO&#39;War (talk) 05:22, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 2)  I find it useful to be able to speak 13 languages :)-- 09:09, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 3)  In my own opinion, I think we could use someone who speaks 13 languages for wiki requests, and plus after looking at the number of wiki creators we have I was shocked to see that we had a low number of wiki creators. We could use more of them. --Cocopuff2018 (talk) 16:11, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 4)  (Please see my comment below to find out the reason of the strikethrough Oppose template.)  I hold this to be self-evident that this nomination is questionable. Two users supporting the user (including the nominator themselves) are editors of the nominee's wiki and do not have enough global or Meta contributions. The same can be said for the nominee, in my honest view. While there is no effective way for me to assess the nominee's knowledge of the Content Policy without asking them questions, I cannot see myself doing that as I believe this whole nomination is questionable. I am not saying that this cannot be a good faith nomination or I am interested in biting newcomers, however. I honestly really hate to oppose requests which seem to have been made in good faith. I would like to see more activity globally across Miraheze and especially, here on Meta first. It should also be noted that knowing many languages is not much helpful, unfortunately as we do not get requests in so many non-English languages. The ones which could help us are Japanese, Korean and in some cases, Russian and French (we already have French Wiki Creators).  16:43, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Global activity isn't a policy requirement for wiki creator. Also, as you acknowledge in your own reply, you have no evidence that is not a good-faith request. So this seems like a massive failure to assume good faith. As to Content Policy concerns, the requestor's own wiki requests have been fine, and Stewards have supervisory oversight over wiki creators, so they can guide, warn, and, where necessary, revoke the flag as required. It seems to me to be reasonable to assume good faith, give them a chance and avoid biting the newcomers. Dmehus (talk) 17:03, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * "Global activity isn't a policy requirement" Agreed but you have misinterpreted my words. I was saying that it is favourable but not required. "Stewards have supervisory oversight over wiki creators" - Nice, this should be documented. As for your other concerns, could you please reach me out privately on Discord as a member of the CoCC if you are confident about your claims? Thank you. 17:29, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Regarding the first point, it is documented here. If clarification is needed, we can certainly look at that. To your second point, I'm getting to Discord next, actually, and will reach out to you, but why as a member of the CoCC? Dmehus (talk) 17:33, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * By CoCC is because your reply sounded like a CoC violation warning. As for the Wiki Creator policy, I thought you meant Stewards periodically reviewed our actions. 17:41, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh okay, thanks for clarifying. Even with the CoC, though, stewards should still be first global functionary to resolve potential Code of Conduct issues. The Code of Conduct Commission really should only be involved if (a) there's been no response from stewards to a complaint within a reasonable period of time, (b) the complainant is unsatisfied with the resolution stewards provided, or (c) the case is complex and, usually, has been referred to the Commission by stewards, system administrators, or similar. I guess the CoC would be involved indirectly in the sense, potentially, in some circumstances, but primarily, the policy-based based reason would be for if wiki creators were consistently demonstrating a misunderstanding or misapplication of Content Policy in their wiki approvals and declines. So, that would be the policy under which Stewards would review a wiki creator's approvals or declines. As to how consistently and/or thoroughly stewards review wiki creators' approvals and declines, it probably varies from steward to steward and wiki creator to wiki creator. In some cases, it may be mostly or entirely report driven. In other cases, it may be more of a proactive review, whether systemic or randomized. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 17:50, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * "you have no evidence that is not a good-faith request." Now that RhinosF1's observation added to that of my own strongly suggests this to be case of sockpuppetry, I believe this gets automatically answered. 18:48, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Hrm? How's that? This seems like a circular argument to me. It could just as easily be two users failing to assume good faith. Two users, not citing any evidence, does not equate to support for an argument. Dmehus (talk) 18:59, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * To expand on this, the request uneases me and makes me think that the users have a prior history but I'm not of the opinion they are the same person. I think it's more likely if anything that they are friends in real life and the evidence to prove this is as I've said below fairly minimal. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  22:05, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I also do think that while it's not appropiate to deceive that they probably didn't do it deliberately with malicious intent and if they admitted it openly then I'd be more than happy to advise them and reconsider my oppose quite frankly. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  22:07, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1)  Many of the nominee's recent edits, especially their template creations and translations seemed to have been made just to increase their edit count to me. I also find it fishy of them to increase the number of languages they speak after this RfP has been created. It should also be noted that Wiki Creators sometimes need to deal with requests with inappropriate subdomains where they need to apply their common sense; a recent wiki request of the nominee had such a subdomain (, which is obviously not a good one as it can be used for other purposes by some other wiki and does not indicate that it is personal) which makes it reasonable to wonder if they would be appropriate for this task. As such, I cannot support this request unfortunately.  22:26, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
 * R4356th You're entitled to maintain your opposing voting argument. The concerns regarding the candidate's template creations and translations would be potentially valid concerns worth raising if the user expressed in interest in volunteering as a translation administrator or administrator on Meta; however, whether one is interested in boosting their edit count (I'm still not convinced that's the case here, to be honest) or whether they just didn't realize that we had Miraheze Template Wiki is sort of beside the point of the wiki creator position. The key point for me is the candidate has either a solid understanding of Content Policy and/or a demonstrated capacity to learn from colleagues, and they're active globally, and, ideally, on Meta. The choice in subdomain for a personal wiki is, admittedly, not great, but that's more of a suggestion that can be guided than an issue with Content Policy. Dmehus (talk) 23:49, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1)  per the points expressed, per the Integer's own wiki requests, which have been approved and created, which suggest sufficient Content Policy understanding. I'm willing to assume good faith here based on that alone. Most importantly, Stewards have the capacity to guide, warn, and where necessary, revoke the flag if there are persistent unaddressed Content Policy concerns in the wiki creator's approvals and/or declines. Dmehus (talk) 17:06, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 2)  There's a huge elephant in the room with this request. It was created by a user that had only been around for a few hours and the only actions I can see that this user has made involve Integer. The way this shows to me is that you've asked your mate to nominate you. If you want the role, be honest about it.  ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  18:31, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * For one thing, there's no global policy against asking a friend or colleague to support your request. Even if you consider this might be a common sense thing to do, both the nominee and the nominator have acknowledged this is a third-party nomination, so that in itself is an implied express acknowledgment of both being honest about it. For another matter, you've not cited a shred of evidence that nominee or requestor asked another user to support them. It's quite possible, or likely even, that the other user is active on that wiki, and saw the exchange between between the nominee and nominator about a potential third-party nomination. So, this, too, seems like a massive failure to assume good faith and be BITEy. Dmehus (talk) 18:55, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * In the past, Stewards have conducted CheckUser investigations and IIRC, their requests were closed of a link was found. 18:58, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * That would be very inappropriate in this case. I'm not familiar with past instances, but past instances have different contextually relevant circumstances, such as those users' editing patterns (on or off Meta), behaviour, and even the type of permission being requested. Dmehus (talk) 19:02, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * No offense but you cannot say what circumstances past instances had without being familiar with them as you acknowledge in your own reply. This is one for you to read. You may also want to skim through this. 19:23, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm familiar with that instance, and was one of the examples I was thinking you might've been referring to actually. Very different circumstances that are contextually irrelevant to this case. Dmehus (talk) 19:37, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * It's misleading and known as meat puppetry. Asking someone to vote for you that has had no prior on wiki reaction without disclosing it creates a huge conflict of interest and in my opinion, if it isn't deemed so already, should be against policy. Given the lack of contributions prior to today, it is not unreasonable at all to assume the user was recruited off site. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  19:14, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm definitely aware of meat puppetry. While it may not be completely unreasonable, given Integer's overwhelmingly constructive editing contributions on Meta Wiki and on their own wiki(s), it's quite unlikely. Thus, this is merely nothing more than a massive failure to assume good faith, bite the newcomers, and generally failure to adhere to the spirit of the Code of Conduct, in my view. Dmehus (talk) 19:23, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't know if it is a very important deal to become a wiki creator, but I just thought he was a smart, multilingual, and helpful guy. If you don't agree with me, that is fine, but it kind of hurts to be blamed like this. Sorry if I caused any type of inconvenience. RONALDOFAN (talk) 20:15, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * RONALDOFAN Since you and I both replied to RhinosF1 at the same indentation level, I assume your reply was directed to RhinosF1, correct? Dmehus (talk) 20:25, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, it was RONALDOFAN (talk) 20:43, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with you that he seems a nice person but I want to know how you became aware of him and his wiki seem as your very first edit was to ask how to use his wiki. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  20:26, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Gladly! I found Ingenpedia on Google, and I just wanted to check it out. If you go to my user page there, you can see I had just asked about how to edit. Being new, I got confused about the orientation and format of the wiki, so I somehow ended up accidentally going here, to meta. Then I went to the noticeboard and thought it was the Ingenpedia official noticeboard, and therefore asked the question. I got familiar with him since he was the first person to approach me both here and on Ingenpedia. Hope that answers your question. RONALDOFAN (talk) 20:46, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 2 final questions to reassure me. 1) Have you had any contact with Integer prior to last day? 2) What prompted you to perform that google search? ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  21:30, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * To answer your first question, no, I do not know who Integer is IRL, and have not had any contact whatsoever before the question about how to edit. Second, the search was conducted not to find Ingenpedia, but about something unrelated, and Ingenpedia was on page two I believe of the search results, and I just clicked on the link for research purposes, but got interested in how Ingenpedia operates and all, and I already said what happened after that above. Hope that is insightful! RONALDOFAN (talk) 21:41, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm gonna stand by my oppose for now on the grounds that your story is a story I've heard before and I'm not going to believe it after seeing it as many times as I have seen it. I can't say for definite though that you've engaged in something against policy or deceptive and I don't think if you are you're doing it maliciously. If Integer wanted the role, I think he'd have had a fine chance without a nomination from a random user as the risk that there's slight deception in the request is all that puts me off. I'll note for the record though your slight change in claim from you were searching for his wiki in your reply to me just above to you found it on an unrelated search on your reply immediately above this. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  21:51, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Wait what? I never said that I searched for Ingenpedia. I said that I found it on Google in the previous claim. RONALDOFAN (talk) 21:56, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Corrected. Sorry for misreading. ~ RhinosF1 - (chat)· acc· c -  22:03, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You're opposing the user because the nominator is 'new' essentially? Any closing Steward would disregard this !vote as it is baseless on the subject of the nomination, and more the context of the nominator who you feel 'uneasy' about. You feel like they're not maliciously deceiving, and have no evidence of such, but you won't support the user until they admit deception - something you can't justify, but would probably use to justify an oppose on the nomination user for deception. I'd recommend you re-word your oppose and justify the claims in light of Integer if you wish to have your !vote considered legitimate by a Steward. John (talk) 22:20, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1)  While I do observe that it's quite odd to see two other users from the user's own wiki to support this request, I don't really see any evidence of sock puppetry. Plus, like Dmehus said above, I would be willing to assume good faith that the three users edit fairly closely on Integer's small wiki. I think that Integer's contributions on Meta, their understanding of English as well as many other languages and their own wiki requests are satisfying enough in order to weakly support this request. Having said that, I would still have a couple questions (see above) for Integer that could persuade me to fully support this request rather than only weakly. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 21:18, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 2)  I just see this as an innocent nomination. Integer seems nice enough so I am supporting. Waldo (talk) 23:25, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 3)  Yeah, I really don't see a need for a CheckUser to be involved here. While  has been on Miraheze for at least 2 months, a CheckUser at this time would be more of a stalemate, and would be rather superfluous and unnecessary. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 23:36, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

 * 6)  I do find it great that another volunteer out of good faith is wanting to nominate a friend for wiki creator, however, I strongly disagree with Rhino's statement and here is why (A) there is nothing that says a user needs to have a certain amount of edits to be a candidate for wiki creator and I honestly think out of good faith everyone should get the opportunity to build up to the next level in there wiki experience. I do think that this is a good next step for Integer and although Rhinos and a few others are asking way more then what should be expected I would like to encourage RhinosF1 and anyone else with a abstain or oppose to possibly reconsider at least a weak support as that would seem more appropriate, and although he might disagree with this user, I do think this user has been fairly active enough to be given this role along with them knowing multiple languages I do think that would be great for handling requests that do not speak in English, and of course like I say in some request we can always use more wiki creators, but  I do  think that this user has proven themselves to understand the wiki creating policies along with being fairly active. Another thing I  wanted to mention is that I do strongly feel a checkuser is not necessary and that assuming good faith is used instead of Assuming Quickly because if we assume too fast sometimes we can often make mistakes such as blocking wrong accounts, or of course not showing good leadership or setting a good example for newcomers, and I strongly encourage that more good faith is used when requests like these occur, and last of all to wrap this all up I should I surely hope this message will make a difference to some of you, thanks for listening to this and feel free to reply to this! --Cocopuff2018 (talk) 21:26, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

 * While there are some concerns as to the lack of clarity in specific operating parameters and frequency of operation have been expressed, which haven't been specifically addressed, there's consensus, so it is ✅, to add the translation tags set out to already existing translated pages. This will be subject to any decisions made by administrators to limit functions or in case of malfunction, block the bot. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 20:42, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

User: TranslationHelper ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Bot Reason: Currently, we use  to ensure translated versions of categories are correctly populated with the same content as their original English source. However, there are a good number of pages that do not use it. This causes translated versions of categories to show up as having less number of pages and files than the original English source, and even in some cases, no files and pages at all. A good example is Category:Guides. TranslationHelper will add  on pages included in categories that have been translated or included in the translation system that do not currently have it to fix this issue. 11:45, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Comments/Questions
 * 1)   Have you made sure that it won't go ballistic again like it did not too long ago? --Integer  talk 14:22, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, I found what I was doing wrong. Though technically, it did do what it was supposed to do. 14:29, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Awesome. In that case, I can at least somewhat support it, and if I get more confident that it works as intended, then I will better support it. <font face="Roboto" color="#65e6ce">Integer talk 14:37, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 1)  This is to confirm that R4356th operates this account. TranslationHelper (talk) 11:48, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 2)  The bot's source code can be found on GitHub.  12:09, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 3)  The purpose of this bot account is useful, the source code is public, and parameters are fairly reasonably defined. The concerns I have are, broadly, based on need. Why not just categorize all translation subpages under the parent, English category? Other than translating some of our main categories, which include explanatory text that can be translated, I don't necessarily see a need to translate categories with no explanatory text. Secondarily, if there's no defined limits as to what categories should be marked for translation, we may have a situation wherein the bot ends up creating empty categories or categories created to hold one subpage for the given language, which leads to over-categorization. Additionally, if an administrator deletes empty categories created by the bot, what measures are in place to prevent the bot from recreating the category immediately thereafter? Dmehus (talk) 14:47, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 4) *I believe you misunderstood the bot's function. The bot will not create any categories. It will edit existing pages to add  beside  . And as for your first question regarding categories, if I am understanding it correctly, the Translate extension does not work like that. If any of your questions stay unanswered, then could you please clarify? Thank you.  15:26, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 5) **R4356th Thank you for your prompt reply. It sounds like it was a misunderstanding stemming, in part, from a lack of clarification. Nonetheless, now that you've clarified that the bot will not be creating any categories; only adding the requisite code to marked translation pages, any concerns I have, at the moment, would be minor, and not able to not be resolved with an amendment to the bot's originally approved parameters, such as with a future discussion with you as the bot operator. The first question is mainly a question of a broader nature as to our approach to categorization of non-English translation subpages, so isn't really relevant to this discussion, so we can set that aside until a future discussion occurs. The only (minor) concern I'd potentially would be the addition of wanted categories caused by the bot adding the requisite code to the given pages, and that's relatively minor given the number of wanted categories we have, and goes back to the need for a larger discussion on our categorization approach. Dmehus (talk) 15:37, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 6) ***As for your first concern, we could have a discussion regarding this on CN with the community or on Meta:AN with Meta Administrators and Translation Administrators. As for your second concern, sadly, there is no straightforward solution unless someone decides to take the time to possibly make a new system through a new template and/or Lua module. 15:43, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 7) *Adding to what I said above, administrators and translation administrators will be able to list categories that the bot should go through here if or once approved. 15:37, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 8) **R4356th Thank you. This satisfies me even more, and shows your willingness to work with the community at creating whitelist and/or blacklist pages the bot monitors in terms of what pages it monitors or skips. That's a reasonable approach. As such, I have no concerns at the moment. Dmehus (talk) 15:39, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * 9)  As you can see above, proposer has given me reassurance, for which I can support this. However, I am still a little scared because of when it started making large amounts of changes very quickly, so I can't support it better. Should there be reason to trust in the (potential) bot more in the future, I will better support it. --<font face="Roboto" color="#65e6ce">Integer  talk 14:39, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

User: DarkMatterMan4500 ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki creator Reason: Considering that I was recommended this permission 6 months ago by a Steward in any other permissions I could choose from, I've been thinking about this for a while. Of course I would like to help Miraheze in a way that everyone is welcome, given the fact that I have been here for over a year, and made myself very well known, so I'm basically ready if necessary.

Additional comments: My only concern is that there are many requested wikis having problematic issues, and even people requesting problematic or substantiated hateful wikis, which is something I should take into consideration. (For clarification, there has been recent incidents about problematic wikis.)

What would you do in the following situations? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 20:42, 10 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Questions
 * 1) A Public wiki that says: "Terrible Websites Wiki - a wiki that lists websites that we find horrible and explains why they're so awful"
 * 2) A private wiki that says: "Wiki for a personal project with me and my friends"?
 * 3) How about a request for a public wiki that says: "Fantasy World Wiki - We're moving away from Fandom because we prefer no ads, see our Fandom site here: x.fandom.com"?
 * 4) A public wiki that says: "Obnoxious Bloggers Wiki - a wiki that lists bloggers and explains why we think they're obnoxious and terrible people"
 * 5) A wiki that has the same topic as another wiki but says in the description "The administrators of the other wiki blocked me for no reason so I want to create my own version"

 * Answers
 * 1) Depends on which subject it's being talked about: However, since we're on the specifics, I would decline them and have them specify what their purposes of their wikis will be. Also, if a wiki was going to be problematic, then I'd decline it right away and tell them the reason why.
 * 2) Just like with my answer for number one, I would like to have them specify the reasons behind that to avoid problematic and/or Code of Conduct or Content policy violations.
 * 3) If the paragraph looks good enough, then I'd accept the request, but if it's not good enough, I'd have them go back and edit their request. (I have clarified what I meant below after Reception123 brought up an interesting point on both #3 and #5.)
 * 4) I'd decline that as that would be a problematic Code of Conduct/Content policy violation, as I wouldn't allow a wiki to create problems for our wiki farms.
 * 5) I'd obviously decline it as we don't need duplicate wikis, but on rare cases, I would want them to specify what their purposes of their wikis are.
 * Could you perhaps give us more details for the 3rd one, what would a paragraph that looks "good enough" and a paragraph that is "not good enough" look like to you? For the 5th one, it would rather be appropriate to check if the user has tried to mediate the situation on the main wiki. The CP says "a direct fork of another Miraheze wiki where little to no attempts have been made to mediate situations on the existing wiki or existing community" so that implies that a fork could be allowed if attempts have been made to mediate the situation and they have failed. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:58, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh, thanks for bringing that up. I should've been more clear on #3 and #5. For number 5 (in no particular order), any forks to other wikis are indeed acceptable if all else fails, with a few exceptions along those lines. (You're right about that one.) And as for #3, I'm referring to the ones that should add 2-3 sentences in details, and by not good enough, I'm referring to people adding in very lazy writing or didn't put any thought into writing a wiki request. In other words, that wouldn't really be acceptable to accept as a wiki request. I hope that clarifies that for you, and is more clear. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 10:42, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for clarifying. That prompts me to ask an additional question. What if someone requested a private wiki and the description was "This wiki will be for the purpose of organising my personal diary"? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 14:06, 11 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Hmmm, that would be suspicious, but assuming good-faith, I'd ask them to provide specifics making sure they aren't going to breach the Code of Conduct and/or Content policies. DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 14:09, 11 March 2021 (UTC)

I have withdrawn this request, as I believe I should get a lot more edits done, and memorize all policies, and become well known in the community. The main reason why I have withdrawn is because I have considered all opposes, and believed that I should work more on the community and then redo the vote. Wiki JS 17:43, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Know the CoC is good, but as a Wiki creator, you should also know the Content Policy, and your activity on Meta is too recent for I can decide me, so I not really inclined to support this for now, but if you want, you can reach a other wiki creators for asking to a mentorship.

 * Unsuccessful. The prevailing consensus view here is two-fold, that (1) the user has a low amount of edits, though it's unclear if the participants are referring to global edits or Meta edits, and (2) that the user may not have sufficiently demonstrated to the community they understand and can apply Content Policy correctly in decisioning wiki requests (based mainly on their own wiki requests). The first argument really has very little to do with being a prerequisite for the wiki creator, but the latter argument is of paramount importance. This really was a good-faith request to volunteer and the requestor is thanked for wanting to volunteer. The requestor is strongly encouraged to reach out to an existing wiki creator on Discord or IRC and have them ask them a series of situation-based questions regarding mainly Content Policy and Wiki creators guide that would help to ensure a successful permissions request next time.

 * Comments/Questions
 * 1)  Sorry, but your account was just created less than two hours ago, you have only made this request and one edit on your apparent wiki, so I have no indication you'd understand and apply Content Policy correctly. In addition, I would note that the wiki on which you'd made contributions and which was identified as your personal wiki was requested by 1066470lcps. Is that your alternate account? If so, please do review user accounts policy. This is either a too soon or not now case. Dmehus (talk) 14:49, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

 * Request withdrawn by user in Special:Diff/169062 Naleksuh (talk) 19:29, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

User: Anton ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: sysop Reason: I have considered the application of those rights for a few weeks, and I thought that now I ask these (though admittedly can still be the case too soon). I would like to be more involved in the maintenance of jobs in Meta, because Patroller adjustments will not be terribly not here (for example, today only one, I am therefore patroller). I think the administrator has more work to do here somehow. For example, this week and last week, three / four pages have come into my eyes that should have been deleted (accidentally created by Meta or for spam). I added the Delete template, but if I had sysop, I could have deleted it right away without the template. There have also been a few blocked users (who were blocked) at this point, but here's the same reason as just now: I could have done it quickly if I had sysop. It also feels like there are a lot of wiki Creator users, and the Request queue is mostly clean due to the fast operation of Miraheze wiki creators. With maintenance work, I too would have something meaningful to do and I could be more helpful to this wiki. I have been actively involved in community for a long time, and like to take part in all decision deeds and other discussions. I point out and also give hints, for example if something is missing a signature, I tell him it should be added (this is mostly patroller work, but why not sysop as well). I am also an active (and the bureaucrat and sysop) Public Test Wiki. I think rights could benefit me and so I could improve Miraheze Meta in the best possible way! Although I'm pretty sure that I ask this too early, I still wanted to try what kind of answers I get. I will be happy to wait for answers. Thank you.

Additional comments: I don't really have any additional comments on this, thanks :)

 * Comments/Questions
 * Sorry, I do not trust you. You have requested advanced rights (albeit informally) too many times. You are not active enough and had only 450 edits at the time of writing this. I also think that this request is premature and you still have a lot to learn. Maybe get at least a few thousand edits and re-request this after several months. 17:37, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I didn't saw situation when you needed rights and no one else was around. Also permissions on PTW means nothing.--MrJaroslavik (talk) 18:50, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately I cannot support this request at this time. Before even considering the qualifications of this candidate I will note that there are 9 administrators already on Meta and in my opinion I think considering the activity and the 'administratorial' tasks here there is not a specific need for a 10th administrator at this time. Now, if we ignore that fact I must agree with the views expressed above (though in less harsher terms) that while you have had meaningful and helpful contributions on Meta (and that is appreciated) it is not really sufficient for the role of administrator. I think final statement "Although I'm pretty sure that I ask this too early" was correct, and it is too early to think about administrator at this point in time. DeeM28 (talk) 11:16, 27 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Still others think it's too early, so the request can be closed :) I don't know or don't know how to close the request in Meta, so could someone do that? --Anton (talk) 18:53, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
