I think that you are doing a really great job as a wiki creator, keep up the good work! I really don't see a reason for sysop, as we are already more than enough, and there isn't much administrative work to be done on Meta. Reception123  (talk) ( contribs  ) 08:33, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Weak  Again, TriX is very good at wiki creation.  But I don't know what help we need as a sysop right now.  You can help new guests now, and users can see your wikicreator right and know that you are a site volunteer. Marking pages for deletion is good for now.  Maybe ask again in 3 to 6 months?  --Vorticity (talk) 23:03, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Okay :) TriX (talk) 23:53, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
 * for the same reasons as above. Great wiki creator but not really a demonstrable need to have the right. (Not that I'm against the user having the rights, if a need is displayed). -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 12:00, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Other users feel free to support/oppose/abstain from this RfP but please state your reasoning below. Thank you for creating the wiki. It seems that the admin, hontsukuro, does not have sufficient permissions (e.g., can't register users). I'd appreciate it if you could rectify that, please. Thanks.

XOF (Wiki Creator)
User: XOF ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki Creator Reason: It takes over a day in many cases for wikis to be created. We need creation to be automatic like at Wikia or we desperately need more creators. There's no reason for it to be more then an hour. If it takes too long we're going to lose users to shittier wiki hosts.

 * Have you read the wiki creators guide? Also I agree that we need more volunteers (wiki creators and otherwise) but unfortunately I'm not sure the 'less than an hour' thing will happen no matter how many volunteers we have unless there's people to handle every timezone. 100 people on at the same time won't help when someone requests a wiki after they go to bed. I think 24 hours should be the max time but I'm not hoping for under an hour. -- Cheers, NDKilla ( Talk • Contribs ) 14:41, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I took a look at it. An hour response time at any hour is going to be a very hard goal to meet but we should work toward it.  It would be much better if we made wiki creation automatic because the delay could mean that someone gets their wiki created with a competitor first before they get it approved here.  XOF (talk) 19:19, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * - yes we need more wiki creators. Getting creation time below 1h will be hard, but we can make it easier. I'll work on a bot that automatically feeds wiki requests to IRC. Southparkfan (talk) 12:37, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
 * @Southparkfan, the MirahezeRC bot already feeds wiki requests to IRC. However, if those could be sent to another channel specifically for wiki requests, #miraheze-wikirequests for example, then that would be very helpful to the wiki creators. -- Corey (talk) 07:14, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Sammy (Steward)
User: Sammy ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Steward Reason: I think the time has come where I request Steward rights across Miraheze. I'm currently a Wiki creator who has far too much experience to not request this right. I've been on Wikia and Wikimedia beforehand, and I know I have the technical experience and time to maintain Miraheze.. now, there's always the question of whether Miraheze needs more Stewards at this early stage, so I'm going to be quite frank: one more wouldn't hurt. I've worked with John beforehand on WMT on IRC, I've done countervandalism for Wikia in the past, and my technical experience with MediaWiki is good enough to be requesting stewardship. I want to see Miraheze grow and prosper; and I think I can do that better as a steward.

Additional comments: Please do not hesitate to ask me any questions below; I'd be happy to answer any questions pertaining to this request. :)

 * As I elaborated on IRC yesterday. We don't need new stewards at all, only people that help with configuration requests and wiki requests. Southparkfan (talk) 12:37, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I withdraw my request for steward at this time, per the talk on IRC. Sammy (talk) 18:18, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Corey (Wiki Creator)
User: Corey ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log ) Group: Wiki Creator Reason: Miraheze definitely needs more Wiki Creators in order to get the request time down. It should not take more than a couple hours for a request to be approved or denied.

Additional comments: I've read and understand the Wiki creators guide. :)

 * I remember Corey from Wikia, he's trustworthy and helpful enough that he can do good use with this right. Sammy (talk) 02:20, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
