 * I saw that I have no needs none made to run with this account. Also, don't need this bot flag. I will have more plans in the future. --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 21:54, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

Group: Bot Reason: An alternative to lazy human edits, with this flag, perhaps it performs some more advanced responsibilities. I'm learning with .php and AWB, and I don't rule it out! Thanks. --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 21:51, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

YellowFrogger (Wiki creator) (2)

 * The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
 * As per a user's concern, and I also think I don't need those rights now. In fact, it was another user who asked to open it, I would only open it at the end of this month, he also mentioned that he would not vote. I don't know what CIR is, but maybe mentioning IDHT. Support from wiki creators is currently reasonable and I won't ask until March or April again after the old threads are archived. As WC, I planned to fulfill requests for wikis mostly at off-peak hours from the WCs. It is not possible to quote the delay of the wikis being created because this is unintentional. --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 18:46, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Group: Wiki creator Reason: Greetings. With these privileges, I especially would serve requests at less active hours of wiki creators. Requests will be reviewed responsibly guiding the content policy on all of them, and I will consolidate my service in Miraheze as patroller. This is just another important form of volunteerism, one of several in addition to fighting vandalism here. --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 03:31, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Additional comments

 * First of all, I'd like to point out that this is just a voluntariness and I don't want to collect hats or open like a snowball. I was planning to open on January 30th, but an argument changed my course. I think I have a knowledge of the content policy and have been actively contributing since September. Please ask questions to train me.

If this RfP closes as unsuccessful, I would be inclined to open only in February. Regards, --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 04:17, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Other users feel free to support/oppose/abstain from this RfP but please state your reasoning below.
 * 1) Oppose There are many, many CIR issues with this user. I also recall that this user previously had wiki creator and it was removed, although I looked in the users rights log and do not seem to see this. I think nothing has been articulated and there is also very little if not zero connection between wiki creators and patrollers which is another problem in the request statement. Naleksuh (talk) 04:18, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * YellowFrogger never held wiki creator but did have his patroller revoked for CIR issues. Agent Isai  Talk to me! 04:26, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I'm aware of that and did check the log as said in the original comment. I might have been thinking of their unsuccessful wiki creator request which I now see has not even been archived from this page yet which is another problem. Naleksuh (talk) 04:32, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * That was a month ago. Maybe I explained myself and everything was resolved. Please, Drop the stick. --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 04:44, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * And now the person being nominated is replying to opposes telling them to drop the stick for opposing. That essay doesn't work here, particularly because I did not participate in your original request for wiki creator. Regardless, if I had not opposed already I certainly would now. Naleksuh (talk) 17:23, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I didn't want to answer. There's no way to prove that I'm on the right track, unfortunately. It was not to be expected that this would be mentioned. There have been no more problems like these recently, this being the last one. All that is needed is to wait, now. --YellowFrogger (Talk — ✐) 17:51, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * There have been multiple CIR issues since the last request, not just that itself, and in addition you have "waited" a little over a month, not a substantial amount of time like six months to a year. I encourage you to withdraw this request and wait longer both due to the chances of this passing now being very low and to show reception of feedback from other editors. Otherwise I will not be commenting on the request further. Naleksuh (talk) 18:04, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

SoyokoAnis (Wiki creator)
Group: Wiki creator Reason: I am going to try this again, I understand the policies/per content policy and know that there are hours of requests being stale for hours. Most of my requests are well understood. While I may not have many contributions, I know how Meta operates and can contribute a lot more as a wiki creator to help users get their wiki's made faster. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SoyokoAnis (talk • contribs)

Questions for candidate

 * 1) As we like to show people your knowledge of content policy (as a second chance), answer this quiz (from Agent Isai):
 * Wiki name: "Hero's Journey" Wiki subdomain: herosjourney.miraheze.org Description: "Hero's Journey is an MMO game. Our current wiki is on Fandom but we want to move to Miraheze because it gives us greater freedom. Fandom's policy changes also are concerning because previously acceptable wikis are now all of a sudden closed. We want to move to Miraheze because we can customize our skin and domain."
 * Wiki name: '揭露“猎虎打苍蝇”' Wiki subdomain: zhenxiang.miraheze.org Description: "Help the wiki show the real government policy. Wiki shows all people the real little bear how it is and nature of company."
 * Wiki name: Free for All wiki Wiki subdomain: free4all.miraheze.org Description: "The Free for All Wiki is devoted to let users write about whatever they want! Users can also test MediaWiki at the same time while they write about whatever they want."
 * Wiki name: My Notes Wiki subdomain: semiinotes.miraheze.org Visbility: Private Description: "Private notes for my Seminar II class."
 * Wiki name: 4chan gen wiki Wiki subdomain: 4chanwiki.miraheze.org Description: "General wiki about 4chan. Will discuss and archive all notable 4chan events across all boards. It will include info on the OP and follow ups by the OP to the original post, including trilogies. Will also discuss notorious 4chan users."
 * Wiki name: Hitler in WWII Wiki subdomain: hitlerinwwii.miraheze.org Description: "This wiki will focus on Hitler during World War II. This wiki will go deeper into his thought process according to sources in the matter and will document his ideology change through different periods in his life." --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 15:34, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * @YellowFrogger
 * Accepted! May not have a great summary on why it was requested but the wiki on Fandom may make up for it.
 * Unaccepted. For one, the request is not well formed. For two, this wiki is mainly to spready unsubstantiated hate or false information.
 * Unaccepted. User may use the PTW(Public Test Wiki) for those types of edits and does not have a clear scope or purpose.
 * Accepted. Make sure to use the private wiki feature to keep others for editing your notes.
 * Accepted. As long as it follows the content policy and to not spread false rumors or unsourced rumors.
 * SoyokoAnis 17:35, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately you are wrong in #1 and #5. The first only mentions that the wiki is from FANDOM, it doesn't mention the scope around the MMO game, although the wiki creators have the service of knowing the scope of wiki. Generally a the big description is not mentioning the scope of the wiki. The wiki description has to be the scope sentences, not just aggregate, while #5, although you mentioned right "in not insulting hatred against a group of people", you were wrong to accept. We cannot guarantee that a wiki will follow CP, where it quotes: "Content on wikis must be fairly balanced, meaningful or substantiated by independent referencing." . Although you missed two (and didn't answer #6, which I'm still waiting for), the quality is still acceptable by your answers. I suggest that you always re-read the Content Policy to stick in your mind, and, track wiki requests at Special:Log/farmer to see how wiki scopes are met. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 18:03, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

 * 1) You have only 50 edits, an autopatroller on Meta, and an account created in April 2020, but it looks like you only came to contribute now. I won't oppose, but I won't vote support either, as you could have more experience (you just edit from period to period on noticeboards (starts editing in a month and only goes back to editing several months later)). In doing so, you would demonstrate that you are credible and aware of the content policy, which is more important for a wiki creator, than asking for the rights late. --YellowFrogger  ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 15:16, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) per WP:NOTNOW - As pointed out by YellowFrogger, you have 50 (57 as of writing) edits on Meta. I would like to see some more engagement locally such as on the noticeboards before applying for wiki creator.  Agent Isai  Talk to me! 18:40, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * @Agent Isai If you don't mind me asking, how would engaging in noticeboards help my request to wiki creator? I see it, wiki creators jobs are to accept or decline wikis based on if they would match with the content policy and their summaries and scope. I would love to be active on noticeboards, but questions ask may be too confusing to answer for me. SoyokoAnis  22:04, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Replying to noticeboards is a way to help beyond just making edits. Of course this doesn't have much to do with wiki creations, but it's to show that you participate in a community way. If you find it too difficult (the questions), answer the ones you know or go contribute in another way (translation, if you know another language, mini edits, Phabricator). Unfortunately it is. There are some that I don't understand and I leave it to other editors. So when it's a simple question like: "How do I change the name of my wiki", all experienced editors know this and it doesn't hurt to answer: "You can change the name of your wiki in Special:ManageWiki/core", that's it., did the service on the noticeboard. But I have to agree that the most important discipline for the wiki creator is content policy and trust. --YellowFrogger ( talk ) ( ✔ ) 22:33, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , unfortunately. Very less active on meta. Like Agent, I would also like to see you active on Meta before requesting the rights. --Magogre (talk) 18:55, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
 * 1)  You're not exactly that active enough though. Your request definitely looks noble on paper, but the amount of edits you have currently isn't exactly sufficient enough to get the wiki creator rights you're looking though. My advice, stick around, make some good contributions, and you'll be all set to go from there. :) --DarkMatterMan4500 (talk) (contribs) 00:01, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
