John's Request for Stewardship
User: John ( contributions &bull; CA &bull; blocks log &bull; rights log &bull; global rights log )

Reasoning for request
Hi, I'm John! For those unfamiliar with me I am: I bring a lot of experience to the table here which includes (but is not limited to):
 * One of the two founders/creators of Miraheze
 * Previous and first steward
 * Previous (and now current) sysop and bureaucrat on Meta and Sysadmin
 * A strong advocate of the community model of Miraheze, spear heading several RfC and community establishments of policies and requests (inc. the Steward policy)
 * Advanced knowledge of networking and IPs/UAs - ability to thoroughly investigate and utilise CheckUser data in protecting the communities
 * Different timezone to existing active stewards
 * Experience with the tools in a Miraheze setting
 * Reactive response to situations requiring the use of steward and sensitive tools

I feel like my experience speaks for itself and I'm happy to answer any questions or concerns people wish to raise with me. John (talk) 00:11, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Additional comments given by user (if any)
While not relevant to this request, since returning a month ago to full duties I have made leaps and bounds on large term projects with benefit to the community including:
 * Special:WikiDiscover
 * Special:ManageWiki - extension management
 * Categorisation of wikis

Reasoning for request
Hello, I have come to petition Miraheze users for the Steward position, although my time at Miraheze has been short, I have demonstrated with my current position as Wiki Creator, that I have been responsible for the responsibilities that come with this position, such as Steward would fulfill functions of administrator in Meta, as well as any other task assigned to me, in addition to being a native speaker of Spanish, I will be able to give support to the Spanish-speaking Miraheze community, expand Meta's documentation, and give my support to translations of the extensions if necessary

Additional comments given by user (if any)
I look forward to your comments and questions

Questions for candidate

 * 1) What do you have problem with your current position as a wiki creators for a week? Cheers :-) Cmg (talk) 15:05, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
 * 2) Answer: As a wiki creator for a week, I have not had a problem, I have really limited myself to my functions that are creating wikis, and as autopatrolled, I have seen that all editions in the wiki do not violate the rules in Meta, as well as undo the odd edition that violates something GOTILON  - Talk  - Contributions  15:11, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Tbh, I would like to see more activity around fighting spam and vandalism first. Ideally it would be nice if you had CVT first. MacFan4000 (Talk Contribs) 14:50, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Maybe you're right, I think I jumped a little, could I close this discussion or wait for the routine consensus time?
