Resigning from steward position
There are many duties for me to fulfill within this project, and the work as a steward is 'just too much' to keep doing that properly and staying up-to-date. As such, I have decided I am - voluntarily - going to resign from my position as a steward. I am sure my fellow stewards will do an excellent job, even without me. Please remove my rights and groups I am associated with in this role. Thanks for the many years as a steward, and at least I'll still be around in the SRE roles. :) Southparkfan (talk) 21:08, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

rfobasic.miraheze.org
Please exempt this wiki from the Dormancy Policy. The wiki has been listed in the Gazetteer of wikis from its inception. Although a very incomplete manual that I only add to on request, it is a useful tutorial on features of the RFO-BASIC! freeware for Android, and I'm told the OliBasic fork now includes a menu option that sends the user here for reference. 23:33 4-May-2020

Can you please unban me from two wikis?
TheChisatoFan and Portrock1566 banned me on Healthy Fandoms & Hatedoms Wiki, and Incredible Wikis And Users Wiki, respectively. As you can see here, their reasons to block me made no sense.

 * ( non-steward comment ) Well from my understanding many of these wikis have common admins/bureaucrats and perhaps they did not appreciate the comment that you made on another wiki. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:11, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
 * He has also shown hostility towards our wikis on other websites like TheTopTens and DeviantArt. He once even called one of our users a "manchild" on his DeviantArt account. Therefore, we also blocked him on multiple other wikis to prevent possible conflicts. As well as his terrible behavior on the wikis themselves like the comment Reception123 has shown. And, if I'm correct, only one case like this is not enough to get globalled. Especially when the user in particular acts like this. Kesner (talk) 15:35, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I am not asking to be unbanned on TF&HW, but only the other three. And no, if you check out the link that you provided, I didn’t even say “manchild”. General I80 (talk) 17:14, 6 May 2020 (UTC) General I80
 * Don't lie. I know you wrote it as a reply to one of the comments and so should you. Also unless Reception123 or other stewards require that we unblock you, then you are staying blocked. Period. Don't even bother replying to me. I am done talking to you unless a steward comes to our wikis.Kesner (talk) 17:49, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

Request for wiki 'elliot' to be exempt from inactivity rules
Hi -- I maintain a personal wiki here titled 'elliot' (https://elliot.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page). I use it as sort of a personal wiki where I share my ideas with others. I don't update it super actively though, so I find myself having to re-activate it sometimes. I'm worried that the inactivity rules will allow someone to take control of this wiki if I go 60 days without an edit in the future. Is it possible to make this wiki exempt from the inactivity rules?

Thanks, Elliot
 * I'm not sure whether this should be granted, however just to note under the current policy wikis that are private may not be adopted by users who did not have access to it prior to the closure. Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 06:08, 6 May 2020 (UTC)

Request to opt out of CVT
The majority of moderators on The Final Rumble Wiki have come to the conclusion that we want to opt out of the Counter-Vandalism Team's watchlist, since we believe we can both handle the amount of vandalism ourselves, and members from the CVT may erroneously target pages that are not vandalism in our wiki.

Increase wiki user privileges
I'm one of the users responsible for the wiki for the game: https://fapceo.miraheze.org/ The user that created it and has the only Administrator privileges User:Betwixt is not active and is not working anymore (afaik) for the company that oversights the game, he was one of the Community Managers. We have 0 contacts with him for some time already. We discussed the matter on our Discord server (can be found on the bottom of the main wiki page) with other Community Managers and Moderators about it and we would like to request to grant Administrator privilege and Bureaucrat if possible to the new CM that oversees the game User:Snakeintheeye and Administrator privilege if Snakeintheeye cannot receive a Bureaucrat to the main Moderators User:Groxy or User:Cc (all of them are also present in the Discord server if necessary)

If there is anything that you would need from our side that could help us get control of our wiki, please let me/us know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Delgon (talk • contribs) 13:08, 10 May 2020‎ UTC

Request to get perms back on oldfagdotorg wiki
I created and own the wiki oldfagdotorg, and recently intended to turn it private. I gave other people the bureacrat role, but left the admin role for myself. I didn't realize you couldnt remove other bureaucrats so I removed all their perms, and basically locked the wiki in on itself as now no one has the perms to manage it. Can someone fix this by readding perms to bureaucrat?

@Reception123 I would like all the perms to be reset to the default.
 * Due to a technical issue on our side, the reset will have to wait for a while until we fix the issue with the reset script. I apologize for the inconvenience and if you need this quickly perhaps giving you the managewiki permission for now would work? Reception123 (talk) ( C ) 18:39, 13 May 2020 (UTC)

Requesting bureaucrat rights on Template Wiki
Back in Jan 2018 I asked for a Miraheze template repository. MacFan4000 set it up. Understandably I was only given administrator rights not bureaucrat. That has been manageable, whenever some bureaucrat operation has been needed I'd request MacFan4000 to implement it. Now MacFan4000 seems to be dormant and I'd like Pppery to be given administrator on the grounds that he has been doing some fine work on the wiki and it would be useful for him to have access to those extra functions, e.g. Special:ReplaceText. Better still please can we both be given bureaucrat rights as we're the only users actually looking after Template Wiki? --Rob Kam (talk) 09:26, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Problem with inactive admin user and wiki being closed.
I'm new to wiki editing so a friend created this wiki obscurantia.miraheze.org like a template with the documentation I gave him and then he gave me the administrative rights so I can edit the content and learn also from it. This wiki is about my works and projects, it's the documentation of it and I made new content recently. Now I have a message that says this wiki will be closed in 15 days and will become eligible for adoption for inactivity even if I do make changes. I would like to adopt this wiki if it's possible. Thank you.
