On the Meta Administrators' noticeboard, you can request:

  • A Meta administrator to warn or sanction a blatantly disruptive or spam-only account (on Meta). For blatant cross-wiki disruption, vandalism only, or spam only accounts, please see Stewards' noticeboard.
  • User group permissions that administrators' may grant at their discretion (inclusive of patrollers, translator, or interface administrator) to help with certain tasks (also on Meta only).

Request translater permissions[edit source]

Hi I'm a native Chinese speaker and is fluent in English. I don't really care about what I translate as long as it's in English. I have experiences with translating things from English to Chinese, and I'll make sure to try my best to improve users' experiences in using Miraheze. Heerxingen (talk) 13:51, 1 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Abuse filter #70: IP editing on Meta[edit source]

There are lots of false positives by abuse filter as Steward requests has been split into multiple pages. Can any of Meta admins change the code of abuse filter #70 to:

Partial block/Restriction for Silicona[edit source]

Status:  Done

Silicona has a history of creating poor quality and duplicate RfCs that waste the communities time. I propose either a partial block from the Requests for comment page or an indefinite restriction on creating them. See Requests for Comment/Unregistered (IP) editing (2), Requests for Comment/New fonts on Miraheze Meta body content, Requests for Comment/Miraheze redesign, and Requests for Comment/Update “Hosted by Miraheze” at bottom of wikis. These were all within just the last two weeks. Globe - (TalkContributionsCA) 18:55, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

But Requests for Comment/Unregistered (IP) editing (2) wasn't created by me, it was created by another user. Silicona (talk) 18:58, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
My apologize, I saw your edits and had assumed you created that one. Sorry, Globe - (TalkContributionsCA) 19:00, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
My advisement for this case would be for a meta admin/steward to give a caution on frivolous rfc creation and to encourage collaboration directly via TP message and go from there in any future instance. Straight to block or formal restriction is abrupt and to be avoided except in severe or delinquent cases, this reaches neither bar imo. --raidarr (💬) 19:07, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
A formal restriction or block is unjustified. A Meta admin or Steward should just caution them on creating unnecessary (but good faith) RfCs and encourage them to use drafts and seek community input before making RfCs. Collei (talk) (contribs) 21:21, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

They haven't received very much guidance on what is acceptable for an RfC and it's been 3 meriltess RfCs stretched out over a year. It's not ideal but it's not a CIR issue at the moment. Collei (talk) (contribs) 01:34, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
From what I can see, this has all occurred with in the last 2 weeks, not year. And I am seeing a pattern. See: Steward requests/Miscellaneous#The miraHow controversy and Community portal#Miraheze app?. Globe - (TalkContributionsCA) 20:47, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Those two links aren't RfCs, and only three pointless RfCs were made in the past few weeks. Everything else was a while ago. Unless Silicona makes more pointless RfCs, a restriction isn't needed, because they appear to have stopped making them before you made this post. I did notice the Miraheze redesign RfC, but that one finally made use of the drafts feature and they closed it on their own after receiving feedback before it was opened. And since then they have been asking the community if they should open an RfC, no more have been created. Collei (talk) (contribs) 20:54, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I just saw that request. This is very unfortunate and it seems they don't understand RfCs still. I support a temporary restriction on creating new RfCs for them, like requiring a Steward or Meta admin to approve their RfCs or forbidding new RfCs from them for a period of time.

Request for autoparolled rights (Silicona) #3[edit source]

Status:  Not done

On Meta I helped the community for editing and updating content on Meta. Therefore I would like to grant me autopatrolled rights.

I requested autopatrolled rights twice two years ago, but there were declined, but I hope that my third attempt would gain me autopatrolled rights. Silicona (talk) 16:38, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

 Comment: Autopatrolled is granted to users that consistently make positive edits that don't need review by other users (Patrollers). You have received multiple notices on your talk page about your inappropriate use of RfCs and I'd argue that your edits still do need review. Additionally, the wording used in your requests suggests to me that this is just about hat collecting. Globe - (TalkContributionsCA) 17:32, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you. Collei (talk) (contribs) 19:59, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I haven't commented on this discussion, so I'm not entirely sure where my opinion came into effect here. Regardless, I'd advise all to let this discussion rest on all fronts. Meta sysops are aware of the user's history and will handle this request appropriately, this does not need to become a large thread.

A common prefix I use when I grant 'autopatrolled' is "No need to patrol-Knows of the purpose of Meta...". As you have been recently warned by me, I would not consider these words to be true in your case. You are in need of being patroled and still do not know the purpose of some Meta processes entirely.

Request for autopatrolled rights (Commetian Empire)[edit source]

Status:  Not done

Hiya there! I would like to request that I receive the Autopatrolled right, and my reasons include:

  • I have been part of Miraheze for over a year (CA says 18 months)
  • I have made over 700 edits on Meta alone and over 5.9K across Miraheze
  • I am actually active here, and take part in most (to all) RfCs, Request for permissions, and other community activities

And I don't think anyone needs to patroll and watch me for vandalism. Thanks for the consideration! Commetian Empire (talk°•◇•°CentralAuth) 01:38, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

This is ultimately up to a Meta administrator to decide, naturally, but in my view, you've made edits at times that are quite questionable at times. Again, up to the handling sysop, but from me, I'd probably wait. BrandonWM (talkcontributionsglobalrights) 16:47, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@BrandonWM:, Could you maybe give me some examples of my questionable edits? Thanks, Commetian Empire (talk°•◇•°CentralAuth) 17:49, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
The notes on your talk page indicate what the "questionable" edits mentioned by BrandonWM might be, though I'll wait to see if he also had any more recent examples in mind and also if you'd like to explain what has changed between then and now. Reception123 (talk) (C) 11:13, 12 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I'd probably link to this diff as an example. While not explicitly forbidden, the comment itself adds little to the discussion and only serves to clutter it. This diff, while again well-intentioned, wasn't appropriate to necessarily be adding comments like "and if he was [...] he would crush you." There are more cordial ways to act. I see improvement, which I am glad for, but I also see some more work to be done and do not think it would necessarily be appropriate to grant autopatrolled just yet. BrandonWM (talkcontributionsglobalrights) 14:29, 12 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Oh, okay. Thanks for the feedback. I will work on that, Commetian Empire (talk°•◇•°CentralAuth) 15:25, 12 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
For the reasons given above by BrandonWM, I think there's still some improvement needed and don't think autopatrolled would be appropriate at this time. I'd recommend avoiding gratuitous comments or replying to threads just for the sake of it and only replying if there's actually something that needs to be added.

Request for Patroller Rights (PixDeVl)[edit source]

Status:  Done

Well, I admittedly didn't intend to do this following two posts requesting AP, but so be it. Basically what it says on the tin. I tend to regularly read through RC to keep up with new discussions and the such and would like to be able to help out on Meta some by being able to see what hasn't been checked over yet and calling out vandalism or smaller things like Unsigned or misplaced posts. I am aware of my comparatively small Meta edit count of (as posting this) 47(to clarify, I've engaged in the community a lot more than this, but mainly on Discord, only starting to be active on Meta this year) and if anyone takes exceptional issue with this you're more then welcome to bring it up below. Good day to you all! ╚pixDeVl╝ (Talk Board Contributions CentralAuth) 14:40, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Trusted user, regularly active on Discord. Edit count is low, but would be an extremely trusted asset on Meta per their work on Discord in regularly assisting users. I would  Endorse this request. BrandonWM (talkcontributionsglobalrights) 15:44, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Another non admin commentary; though your case is compelling, it would seem unusual to make you a patroller when you are far short of the technnical mandate for autopatrolled. There is ideally a degree of synergy between them although the patroller page does not spell it out. --raidarr (💬) 18:16, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Raidarr: That's true, but the user already has autopatrolled. BrandonWM (talkcontributionsglobalrights) 18:47, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
A very valid concern, assuming the page refers to Meta edits, which I'd assume it obliviously does(if not for some reason, Nyctopedia would fill the rest of the gap). Truthfully I'm not sure how much Meta Admins follow that, considering Agent assigned me autopatrolled when I had a total of 6 Meta edits(for context on this, I was experimenting with OAuth and since I didn't have autoconfirmed at the time, I asked on discord to be added to the confirmed group to be able to request a test OAuth Consumer. Agent added confirmed and AP.) ╚pixDeVl╝ (Talk Board Contributions CentralAuth) 18:56, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
In this case I suppose it would be not too strange to follow up with full patrol then. My read was also meta edits since it is an extremely local role. And these roles are very minor and highly subject to admin discretion anyway. Autopatrolled serves a functional task (some filters/protections iirc are based on it) while patroller imo is just plain busywork with extra buttons while several eyes should always keep a vague idea what's going on at a given time even if it's edits from stewards themselves. But don't let me derail with that :p --raidarr (💬) 08:37, 11 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
In terms of being assigned autopatroller, following the criteria isn't really a strict requirement though it's rare for people to be granted it before. In this case however, I do think it's a bit early given the edit count which is lower that the autopatrolled criteria but if another administrator feels otherwise I'd have no issue with it being granted. Reception123 (talk) (C) 11:18, 12 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
(As a note for thoroughness, this is not meant to be an 'um actually' nitpick, your point is still entirely valid) Since this request was made I have technically, barely, passed the 50 edit requirement for AP(this is edit 59, although depending on how you count user page and minor edits, it's barely above 50). Purely pointing for completeness sake, I in no way disagree with your concerns. ╚pixDeVl╝ (Talk Board Contributions CentralAuth) 19:21, 12 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Somehow I missed the 30 day/50 edit bit so yes, I supplement my original note to say that standard has been met and is no longer any concern. --raidarr (💬) 13:09, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

OrangeStar's request for interface administrator[edit source]

Status:  Done

I would like to request Interface Admin in order to fix Meta's Twinkle port. On this Discord #support thread, I identified the reason why Meta's Twinkle port is broken on Morebits' dependency on the jquery.tipsy RL module, which was recently removed on T336019 (Wikimedia Phabricator). I intend to apply the temporary mitigations described on that task for now, but will try to also port it to modern MediaWiki, as well as take over maintenance of this port. OrangeStar (talk) 18:52, 12 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Since this is a question I assume will be inquired to by Stewards, how long will it take to repair Twinkle, and are you requesting interface admin as a temporary role, or permanent? BrandonWM (talkcontributionsglobalrights) 04:56, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
(Non-administrator comment) Going off what OS said about "apply the temporary mitigations described on that task for now, but will try to also port it to modern MediaWiki, as well as take over maintenance of this port." and a few conversations on Discord, I assume this is intended to be a permanent/long term position to fix, improve and maintain. ╚pixDeVl╝ (Talk Board Contributions CentralAuth) 10:28, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Other than what PixDevl said, the actual fixing of Twinkle will not take that long, can't say for sure about migrating the gadget away from Tipsy. And yes, since I intend to takeover maintenance of Twinkle here, this is not a request for a temporary appointment. OrangeStar (talk) 15:11, 13 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

 Not done, this is stated to be a a Steward matter, not a Meta Admin issue. Stop trying to work around this. This behaviour is the exact reason you are blocked at all. --╚pixDeVl╝ (Talk Board Contributions CentralAuth) 03:56, 18 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

"I need it in 5 days" is a perfect non-reason to explain why you are blocked. You don't get how the system works and you adapt very poorly to the Miraheze institution. No reasonable wiki creator would be comfortable approving your requests because none of your behavior has given confidence they'd be handled properly in the increasingly long odds you make an acceptable wiki request. The language barrier makes it worse but it has to be more than that to explain your issue. Take some time off and rethink how you're going about things at miraheze. This is a rerun of MarioBobFan plus language barrier and it doesn't end well. --raidarr (💬) 08:40, 18 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Requesting permission to become a translator[edit source]

I would like to obtain translator permissions here on Miraheze (I translate from English to Danish, and might also do the other way if need be). I did the whole Danish translation of the front page here on Miraheze Meta, and poured an impressive amount into doing so. Zakawer2 (talk) 00:02, 19 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Granted. Please do make sure to only translate pages that are on the list. Reception123 (talk) (C) 07:01, 19 March 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
