Your wiki request
Hi, can you please provide some more details about your wiki request. We currently have a wiki called Miraheze Commons where all uploaded images can be used on any Miraheze wiki that have a setting enabled (it should be enabled by default). Is there any particular reason you would like your own wiki for this purpose? -- Void  Whispers 01:32, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

Regarding your wiki creator request
Hi Anton,

While I welcome you being willing to volunteer on Meta and help on Miraheze, you only have 14 edits on Meta, which isn't really enough activity for other volunteers and community members to know you and assess whether you would be a good fit. As a best practice, we recommend joining us on Discord and/or IRC, and reaching out in a mentorship if interested in volunteering as a wiki creator. So, I thought I'd reach out to on your user talk page to see whether you'd be interested in withdrawing your request? You don't have to, but just know that I, and quite likely, others will not be able to support at this point. If you do, you may withdraw your request by adding  immediately below your section header and and   at the very bottom of your request.

Cheers,

 * Okay. So should I join your IRC channel? What am I doing there? How else would I get credit from other Miraheze users? --Anton (talk) 15:25, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * IRC is one option, certainly, but Discord is also a good option. I recommend direct messaging an established community member and engage on ways in which you can volunteer. Did you want me to withdraw your wiki creator request as well for you? Dmehus (talk) 15:47, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I could also join your Discord. What are we discussing in these services? You can delete my wiki creator -request. I'll try again sometime ago though, when I'm here with you for a while and talked garnered confidence.
 * I will come along to talk with you. --~ Anton (talk) 15:52, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Anton Yeah, that's fine, I just think you will have better chances at success if you reapply in a month or two, after having engaged with myself,, or anyone else who is an experienced Meta user. We're a bit busy at the moment, but perhaps in a couple weeks he or I can ask you some preparatory situation-based questions. Anyway, I've ✅ your request per your request above. In the meantime, is there some other way you'd like to volunteer on Meta? Do you know one or more languages, and would you like to assist with doing translations? Dmehus (talk) 15:58, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You can contact me in two weeks if you are busy now.
 * In fact, fact, about languages, I am Finnish, and thus possess excellent Finnish language. I have noticed that there are no other Miraheze in Meta English pages than bring home: it is not, at least not come or I am not against, but then pay attention.
 * I was thinking here that while you are in a hurry, I could translate some pages into Finnish and, of course, check previous translations and / or do the appropriate language maintenance. I have translated some messages Translatewikissä and once the Wikimedia Meta-Wiki. However, I find it important that I could translate the pages into Finnish in Miraheze. Does translation work with non-rights or does it have to be a certain right? I remember from one of my own wikis (unfortunately I am now talking about another, not a Miraheze wiki) that translation requires the rights of either a translator or a translation administrator.
 * I guess if I could choose one of these, I would take the rights of a translation administrator because then I can also mark pages for translation and check translations made by others more closely. How is? I have nothing else to do so I gladly accept the rights of a translation administrator: D --~ Anton (talk) 16:08, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Översättningsadministratör
Hej där, såg att du ansökte om att bli översättningsadministratör, det är kul. Jag är själv översättningsadministratör och har översatt mer eller mindre allt på svenska här. Om du vill vore det bra om någon korrekturläste det för jag kan vara rätt så slarvig ibland och missa saker eller stava fel eller dylikt. Hursomhelst, välkommen ombord! --Sabelöga (talk) 21:43, 28 January 2021 (UTC)


 * English: Hi! I think it's nice to come to Miraheze, when there seems to be a nice reception here :) I can check the translations you made somewhere, but first I thought to translate the pages into Finnish.

Svenska: Hej! Jag tycker att det är trevligt att komma till Miraheze, när det verkar vara en trevlig mottagning här :) Jag kan kontrollera översättningarna du gjorde någonstans, men först tänkte jag översätta sidorna till finska. --Anton (talk) 06:18, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Låter rimligt, du gör saker i den takt du känner för det :) --Sabelöga (talk) 21:56, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Attribution required for Finnish Wikinews imports on
Hi Anton,

An anonymous user filed this report on stewards' noticeboard regarding potential CreativeCommons copyright licensing contraventions on your  wiki. While we generally discourage the practice of anonymous reports, in keeping with the democratic tradition in western liberal democracies that holds that the accused has the constitutionally-protected right to know and face their accuser and because anonymous reports are sometimes made from locked or banned users or users with unclear motivations, I've nonetheless looked into the report, and noticed that you've not provided the required source attribution to the Finnish Wikinews articles. As your wiki doesn't seem to have too many articles or templates to correct, this should not be too cumbersome for you to fix, provided you fix it soon. All you need to do is make a minor edit to each of the source page(s) and link to the source page(s) on each of the pages on your wiki, in the format of, where Source page is the page name from Finnish Wikinews. Once that's done, there should be no further issues. To be clear, I believe this to be an honest, good-faith mistake, most likely due to a misunderstanding or lack of understanding on the attribution requirements.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. :)

Cheers,

 * Yeah I understand :) I went to delete the page. I was wondering if I am no longer active on that wiki, so could I close that wiki? --Anton (talk) 10:12, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Anton You can go into Special:ManageWiki and mark your wiki closed and private, which will make it ineligible for adoption at requests for adoption and it will be deleted in accordance with Dormancy Policy in approximately 135 days from the time you close your wiki. You may also want to want to protect your wiki's Main Page, so no one can perform any edits, though. Alternatively, as you were the only contributor to that wiki and as it seems like it was more of an experiment wiki, you can request that the wiki be manually deleted by a Steward, if you prefer. Hope that helps. Dmehus (talk) 16:06, 8 March 2021 (UTC)


 * I marked it from that ManageWiki now closed and private. This helped, thank you! See you again. --Anton (talk) 18:52, 8 March 2021 (UTC)

Interested in volunteering as a on Meta
Hi Anton,

I've noticed you've been helping out more on our noticeboards, doing some Finnish translation work, and adding unsigned signatures for users. I know you were more interested in volunteering as a  and wiki creator, but I do think where we could use the most would be as a Meta. Please see the patrolling guidelines, and let me know if you're interested by way of a reply to this message.

Thank you,

Dmehus (talk) 11:53, 21 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Hi Dmehus, and thank you so much for trusting me! I have tried to be as much involved in Miraheze community in different ways. And yes, I would like to be a wiki creator and maybe translationadmin but in fact I once did something on Wikipedia patrol-style, or I know what it is. However, I have just read your instructions and I can take on the task! Thank you. --Anton (talk) 11:59, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Patroller granted - 2021-03-21
Hi, Anton. An administrator on Meta has granted you the  user group permission, which gives you the ability to   recent changes and new pages of other Miraheze users (both registered and anonymous) who are  not either autopatrolled or an administrator. In addition, this group also means that your edits are, so other patrollers or administrators don't have to patrol your edits. You should also be aware that the granting of this user group is at the discretion of Meta administrators, so different administrators will have slightly different criteria for granting. Likewise, just as it is a discretionary appointment, revocation is also at the discretion of Meta administrators and, again, each will have their own criteria for revocation.

In the medium-term, plans are in the works to develop a Meta Patrollers School, likely led by one or two active administrators, that will provide a comprehensive set of guidelines for patrollers and answers to commonly asked questions.

Nevertheless, the following are some of the main guidelines for patrolling. If you follow these guidelines completely, it is unlikely your patroller user group should ever be revoked. In technical terms, even when you find content that requires deletion by an administrator or otherwise requires remediation, undoing, reverting, or rolling back (if you are also a, of course), you should always first mark as patrolled any revisions regardless of whether that content is destined to remain extant to the page or even on Meta entirely.


 * 1) When patrolling talk pages, user talk pages, and noticeboards (in Main and Meta namespaces), you should first check to see whether the user properly signed their posts using four tildes . If they have not, you should add unsigned by substitution, where username is the user's username or IP address and the timestamp is the full timestamp from the diff page. As a best practice, you should also link to the diff in your edit summary, so other administrators and patrollers can easily tie your modification to the original edit being modified. To speed up this process, you can copy the   user script from line 5 of this page into either your (a) common.js or (b) global.js page (the latter applying globally on all Miraheze wikis);
 * 2) When patrolling the noticeboards, ask yourself whether this topic is on the correct noticeboard. If it is not, you should move it to the correct noticeboard, by either undoing the edit or manually removing the topic (if there have been intervening edits), again linking to the original noticeboard of the topic and the new noticeboard where it was moved in your edit summary. On the new noticeboard, you would simply paste in the topic (including the section header), linking to the diff page as in the first step. An example edit summary might be , where  ######  represents the numeric revision ID of the originally posted topic;
 * 3) Also when patrolling the noticeboards and talk pages (including user talk pages), as a best practice, take care to kindly fix any formatting mistakes (such as excess line breaks or incorrect wiki code), per WP:LISTGAP;
 * 4) If something requires deletion, you can add delete to the top of the page in question, taking care to follow the instructions on that template page;
 * 5) If you come across a user who repeatedly makes the same mistakes, send them a guidance note on their user talk page, informing of the steps need to edit and post constructively on Meta; and, finally,
 * 6) If in doubt whether something requires remediation or not, patrol it, and then ask any administrator via their user talk page or at Administrators' noticeboard if any further action needs to be taken.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you! --Dmehus (talk) 12:01, 21 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks! --Anton (talk) 12:04, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
 * No problem, thank you for volunteering. If you are ever unsure about something, don't hesitate to ask a fellow patroller, or a Meta administrator either on their user talk page or at Administrators' noticeboard. Dmehus (talk) 12:06, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay and yes, I will ask if anything comes up! I also have a small list of spambots on the Public Test Wiki but as you said earlier, I am still waiting for the list to be updated and I will announce the stewards' noticeboard then! -- Anton (talk) 12:09, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi, I noticed that you did not link the diff here. Please remember to add that as instructed above (which makes me wonder if you truly read and understood the guidelines). Also, I would suggest not using the "it" pronoun for users as they likely are not bots. :P You can use the neutral pronoun "them" whenever you do not know the person's gender. I also recommend teaching users how to sign posts in the revision summaries. Thank you. 15:00, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, okay. I do this. Thank you :) Anton (talk) 15:13, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
