Pkbwcgs (Rollbacker)
User: Pkbwcgs ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Rollbacker Reason: I would like to be a rollbacker because I would like to be able to fight spam/vandalism on Meta and I can address the use of rollback in my next request for CVT. I already hold rollback on three wikis in the Wikimedia Foundation and I would like to help out here as well.

Additional comments: None. Pkbwcgs (talk) 07:11, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Is there any progress on this request? I have requested this right on Friday 31st August and today is Wednesday 5th September. I have waited for a reasonable amount of time and there has been nothing. Pkbwcgs (talk) 09:51, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

Wiki1776 (Wiki manager)
User: Wiki1776 ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki manager Reason: For several months now, I have been volunteering at Phabricator dealing with requests for extensions, skins or other configurations. Like most extensions, skins and some configurations are in ManageWiki and don't need to be done in GitHub anymore. I would like to request permission from Wiki Manager to enable the configuration that is requested in Phabricator.

Additional comments: I registered in 2017, I have more than 5000 global editions, 570 local editions. I have a moderate participation with the community. I am WikiCreator and Interwikis Administrator

CnocBride (Wiki manager)
User: CnocBride ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki manager Reason: I have served Miraheze for many months and I always look for opportunities to help the community to the best of my ability! While my request for steward was unsuccessful as the request was obviously poorly timed, I would like to request wiki manager as I have experience in wiki management and have already proven myself, while maybe lacking insane amounts of free time, a competent and helpful user on Miraheze. So, I come here today, to the community of Miraheze, to request rights for wiki manager.

 * 4)  I do not support the existence of the wiki manager group in the first place, however given that it does exist, CnocBride is probably one of the only non-sysadmin/steward users I would trust with the tool. Amanda Catherine (talk) 16:25, 15 September 2018 (UTC)

Pkbwcgs (Wiki Creator)
User: Pkbwcgs ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki Creator Reason: I have previously requested Wiki creator here. However, with the result of Requests for Comment/Future of Wikicreators, I have moved my request here. I have read Wiki creators guide and I am fully ready to use this tool and willing to help out deal with the amount of wiki requests in the farmer log. Pkbwcgs (talk) 18:14, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

AlvaroMolina (Wiki Manager)
User: AlvaroMolina ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki Manager Reason: Hi, today I come to request the Wiki Manager permission with the aim of helping in the tasks that involve managing the wikis settings when it is required, in addition to supporting extensions requests through Phabricator and that can now be managed from here without having to resort to GitHub. Currently my personal time does not give me enough time to spend here, but in case of having free time (mainly on weekends), I would not have problems in helping in this. Thanks. —AlvaroMolina (✉ - ✔ ) 16:28, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Comments/Questions
 * The user has no activity in Phabricator and GitHub since October 2017, since July 31 only approved one request for Wiki, its other editions were in Votes but I do not consider it enough. I would expect to see an average activity of 5-25 voluntary actions in two months before voting in favor. El usuario no tiene actividad en Phabricator y GitHub desde octubre de 2017, desde el 31 de julio solamente aprobó una solicitud de Wiki, sus demás ediciones fueron en Votaciones pero que no lo considero suficiente. Yo esperaría ver una actividad promedio de 5-25 acciones voluntarias en dos meses antes de votar a favor. Ucronistaw (talk) 16:39, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Now I have had too little time due to responsibilities of my personal life and I can not do more than I have been able to do in these months, I for my part commit to help on weekends, I really intend to help in this and already in the step I have shown experience. I appeal to the understanding of the rest and I hope it is understood... —AlvaroMolina (✉ - ✔ ) 16:43, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

開拓者 (Wiki manager)
User: 開拓者 ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki manager Reason: I'd like to have this permission to help the community while I'm available (though I won't be too active as I used to be).

Additional comments: I've been wiki creator since June, and thus I'm holding the right to automatically become a wiki manager per this RfC, as the wiki creator as of then. So it's rather a choice I made than a request.-- 02:50, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

User: 開拓者 ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: sysop Reason: Considering the fact that Japanese users are increasing and there are some Japanese vandals approaching on meta, I think it's a good idea for me, as a Japanese native, to have local permissions on this wiki so that I can deal with such cases by myself.-- 15:01, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Comments/Questions
 * Is there any other need than the one described? From a developer perspective this is 100% delegated to local communities. From an ops perspective, we now enforce a “if they can do it, don’t do it” policy. The reason provided personally goes against both these principles to me if it’s solely to do phab tasks over education and teaching. John (talk) 21:52, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
 * As I am also an active community member and I would assume trusted, I don’t see a reason I shouldnt be grnated this right. Zppix (Meta | CVT Member | talk to me) 23:53, 27 February 2019 (UTC)
 * I’m a long standing hater of “I’m trusted so I want it” or “I want it so I’ll ask for it”. Especially rights like these, I want to see a clear use case because of the implications as a community user personally. If there’s no use case then personally I’m opposed because it’s only use case otherwise is to do what others can and should be taught to do, thereby increasing work load and dependence on others. John (talk) 03:32, 28 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Per the RfC that split the rights into 2 wiki creators just need to ask for it if i understood correctly, a proper use case would be so I can assist the community with managing settings if I’m asked for that community’s assistance (within reason of course) Zppix (Meta | CVT Member | talk to me) 12:11, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

User: LegoMaster ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: sysop Reason: I am currently a wiki creator and autopatroller. I just want to request sysop rights because I feel like there are not enough administrators to govern the wiki and want to help out by blocking users who attempted to edit a spam page which was caught by the abuse filter. Additionally, I want to protect templates which are not protected yet that are high-risk, especially Oppose. Also, I am in the Hong Kong time zone (UTC+8) so i can work when european admins are sleeping, just like User:Revi.

 * Comments/Questions

Could you please give examples of why "there are not enough administrators"? There is not that much activity on Meta, and as far as I've seen there have not been requests that have gone long without being done (that a Meta admin can take care of) and there has also not been any vandalism recently, or if there has it was taken care of in a speedy manner. At this time, I wouldn't really see the need for a new administrator. Reception123 (talk) (<font color="#FF0000">'C' ) 11:55, 27 April 2019 (UTC)
 * There are possibilities of that more socks of lawrence-prairies will be discovered. There are only admins here. Anyways, i think that it will be fine for that i request admin. Can you send a message to users to call people to vote LegoMaster (talk - contribs - logs - uploads - global contribs) 10:21, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Why would there be possibilities of that, since there haven't been in a while? In my opinion, the current number of administrators is enough, and you have not demonstrated a real need for it. As for the message, I am working on creating a system to do so. Reception123 (talk) (<font color="#FF0000">'C' ) 10:55, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
 * i just want to become admin to protect templates LegoMaster (talk - contribs - logs - uploads - global contribs) 11:00, 1 May 2019 (UTC)


 * The argument that there isnt enough sysops is invalid, and I have yet to see much interaction with user on Meta. Zppix (Meta | CVT Member | talk to me) 11:53, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
