Requests for Comment/Eligibility criteria to apply for CVT and Steward
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
While interwiki administrators have clear eligibility criteria, CVT and Stewards have no clear eligibility criteria documented. This means even IPs (though not technically impossible to gain rights) can nominate themselves (seen here), as well as those who would probably face snowball (seen in many recent candidates). This is not very productive for our community, and as CVT and Stewards have powerful permissions, I think it's time we should have clear eligibility criteria for these permissions as well.--開拓者 (The Pioneer) (talk/contribs | global🌎) 11:18, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
General discussion[edit | edit source]
I support this effort but have no idea what the right thresholds are, and suspect that the right numbers will change over time based on global activity and participation on Meta.
There is no rule prohibiting people who don't understand the basics of social interaction, and no rule keeping them from opening a Miraheze account and, as their first move, trying to take over. The important thing for Meta's legislators is to provide a basis for Stewards to quickly dispose of self-nominations by newbies, and avoid the divisive discussions nearby (by others who don't know the basics of social interaction) to try to convince them they are newbies.
To the extent people are proposing numbers as the basis for who should prevail in their stewardship request, the people who care enough to vote always do a better job of evaluating the request. The only vital job here is to reduce the noise level. Spıke (talk)12:46 26-May-2019
- I also have no idea as well, but I agree with Spike. Any new users or non-experienced users appointed their poor self-nominations statement of stewardship shall be speedy closing the request as invalid, the candidate is useless for those illegitimate users to self requests for stewardship, as what have stated at here. SA 13 Bro (talk) 16:57, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
Further, on the proposals to require Adminship of "3+ wikis": Anyone can be an Admin of 3 wikis; all you have to do is request 3 wikis (invent 3 plausible things you might do with different wikis) as you are initially an Admin on each one. It proves nothing. Perversely, it might lead to requests to create unneeded wikis simply to accumulate credentials. (Reception123 uses the excellent term "hat collecting" on the Stewards' noticeboard today.) On the other hand, Borderman, as far as I know, has only TheLonsdaleBattalion, a museum he has maintained so meticulously and for so long as to want success for Miraheze. I am Admin of two, both of very limited interest. There is no legitimate reason for me to open a third right now; there could eventually be reason for me to request closure of one or both I have, none of which should be an arbitrary barrier. So the requirement to be Admin on a number of wikis is neither necessary nor sufficient. Even success at moderating a community on another wiki is not a qualification to climb on top of this one.
Likewise, a number of edits made on single-purpose wikis (developing high-quality editorial content? or gossiping on talk pages?) does not show commitment to Miraheze, nor does its absence prove absence of commitment. Spıke (talk)19:37 26-May-2019

- A candidate must have either the CVT permission or the interwiki admin permission.
Support[edit | edit source]
Weak support Though I personally think a steward candidate should experience CVT, being an interwiki admin can also be a proof for global trust. Thus, I would like to support this idea weakly.--開拓者 (The Pioneer) (talk/contribs | global🌎) 11:42, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
Oppose[edit | edit source]
Oppose While it would be rare to get Steward rights without already having other local/global rights, I prefer to only have strict appointment criteria, not strict eligibility criteria. Southparkfan (talk) 23:57, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
Oppose I say that as long as thare account is old enuff, anyone shuld be able to apply. After that, the voters will deside. Bonnedav (talk) 22:53, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Proposal 6 (CVT)[edit | edit source]
- A candidate must have the CVT permission.
Support[edit | edit source]
Strong support CVT has powerful permissions such as lock and global block. Still, stewards have even stronger permissions (as OS and CU). Thus, it seems fair enough to me that every steward candidate should be a CVT.--開拓者 (The Pioneer) (talk/contribs | global🌎) 11:42, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
Support Get a track record here in CVT before asking for Steward. --Robkelk (talk) 16:24, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

Proposal 7[edit | edit source]
The user requesting Stewardship must have an account on the Wikimedia Foundation, and that account must not be currently blocked on any of the projects in the Foundation. that's why I am not eligible for stewardship. Fungster My talk | My contributions | FMF Meta | CA 11:53, 27 May 2019 (UTC)

Strong oppose It's just WMF imperialism. As I already said, WMF is a different project and activities there should not be required.--開拓者 (The Pioneer) (talk/contribs | global🌎) 13:38, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
Strong oppose Miraheze is not part of the Wikimedia Foundation and vice versa. It is absolute nonsense to require presence of a non-blocked account there. Southparkfan (talk) 13:45, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
Oppose As I've described at here, Miraheze Wiki are not Wikimedia. Before requesting for stewardship is dependent on how much of experience contributions that volunteer to exert it, block on WMF it doesn't affected the procedural on here. SA 13 Bro (talk) 16:54, 27 May 2019 (UTC)
Strong oppose Also NO, also udder nonsense! Why shuld requesting rights on here require trust on a completely different project ran by a completely different group of people with completely different goals? Besides, somtimes admins block just because thay feel like it or because of local policy that has nothing to do with trust or abuse. I am blocked from a wiki on here just for not being a member of there organization. Bonnedav (talk) 05:19, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
Oppose As already mentioned by everyone above. Miraheze is not the Wikimedia Foundation; why should we let them have a say in our internal policies? (Or, conversely, why should we have a say in their internal policies?) --Robkelk (talk) 16:25, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
