Requests for Comment/interwiki-admin changes

I propose a reconsideration of the current policy around the interwiki right and the interwiki-admin group. Bonnedav (talk) 08:00, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Proposal 1
Leave everything as it is.

Oppose

 * 1)  I of course oppose this as it would defeat the purpose of this entire thing. Bonnedav (talk) 08:00, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Proposal 2
Remove the "Have at least 1000 total global edits on Miraheze" requirement for getting interwiki-admin.

Support

 * 1)  Not even stewardship has such a requirement, and they can do this anyway. I believe this is unnecessary and intrusive. Bonnedav (talk) 08:00, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Strongest support it simplifies the policy LegoMaster (talk Account information: [ block log] – contribs – logs – [ abuse log] – CentralAuth ) 10:48, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1)  Stewardship does not have this requirement as the vote is more demanding in itself and users vote based on the users activity. In the case of interwiki-admin, there is not really any specific criteria, so 1000 global edits can prove that a user has been around for a while and is active.

Proposal 3
Allow local bureaucrats to manage the local interwiki table. Keep interwiki-admin to monitor interwiki edits and remove bad/malicious links.

Support

 * 1)  I believe that local wiki admins and bureaucrats should have as much power over there wikis as posable. Keeping interwiki-admin around to monitor the tables should help to alleviate some of the security concerns right? I don't wish to start an argument, I have already read the concerns brought up in the original proposal. Bonnedav (talk) 08:00, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1)  It is impossible to monitor links, and this creates a security risk for users. Reception123  (talk) ('C' ) 17:34, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Proposal 4
Allow local bureaucrats to manage the local interwiki table. Remove interwiki-admin altogether.

Support

 * 1)  I believe that local wiki admins and bureaucrats should have as much power over there wikis as posable. I don't wish to start an argument, I have already read the concerns brought up in the original proposal. Bonnedav (talk) 08:00, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1)  Per my comment above; oppose removal of interwiki-admin altogether. Reception123  (talk) ('C' ) 17:34, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
