 * 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)

 * It seems you made this request about becoming a wiki manager on another wiki, however please be aware that the role of wiki manager exists solely on metwiki and has the responsibilities listed in the link. Are you aware of this? -- Void  Whispers 18:03, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

 * ✅ Appointment in based on community opinion with no minimum necessary percentage. Therefore employing steward discretion I’m going to pass this. Employing historical appointment standards - any opposition to this may be raised as the policy states. John (talk) 19:18, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

User: LegoMaster ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki Creator Reason: I would like to become a wiki creator because i feel like that i am suitable to after asking experienced users and stewards. I am also active for almost every day, and i am also watching wiki requests queue. All the wiki requests that i requested were all approved and created. LegoMaster (talk - contribs - logs - uploads - global contribs) 11:28, 9 March 2019 (UTC)

Additional comments: I actually expect all users to put an oppose or an abstain vote because my account is created only nearly a month ago and i only have 37 local edits and less than 200 global edits LegoMaster (talk - contribs - logs - uploads - global contribs) 11:28, 9 March 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.

Additional comments: I expect that you put an abstain or oppose vote due to the duration and global contribs of my account. LegoMaster (talk - contribs - logs - uploads - global contribs) 09:01, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

 * 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) ('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) ('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)

 * Successful. -- Void  Whispers 19:52, 24 May 2019 (UTC)

User: Bonnedav ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: wiki creator Reason: I would like to help out with wiki requests and believe that I can be active at odd times when others are not.

Additional comments: I understand that I have few edits on meta but I do plan to become more active. I also ask to receive wiki manager rights as well. I have decent knowledge on how to use manage wiki and I promise to use it only when asked by a local bureaucrat.

 * Comments/Questions
 * 1) Requesting permission the very day you created an account makes it look like you are a hat collector. Thus, I'd say not now, at least. You should first gain trust of the community.-- 15:34, 24 May 2019 (UTC)
 * 2) You seemed to be misunderstanding what is the purpose volunteer to be one of the Wiki creators, I suggest you to learn well the terms first, then in the future were have the eligible way to re-appointment again. S</b>A</b> 1</b>3</b> B</b>r</b>o</b> (talk) 17:46, 24 May 2019 (UTC)


 * 1) Could you tell me how I could get the wiki creator. How much do I need credit? I have read for you, Mirahezen guided tours and more. --Anton (talk) 18:59, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
