Steward requests/Permissions/2009-02

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Please, can you give a link to the community decision on that wiki? --Thogo (talk) 15:36, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

If he can do that, we should grant him adminship because of his great techincal aibilities ;) the wiki is closed, no one can edit there (except stewards since Tim enabled that). Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 15:37, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi there, successful RfA, no local 'crats. Thank-you in advance, Microchip08 ^@simpleWB 21:27, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi there all. I would like temporary adminship here to be able to view and edit the Mediawiki pages necessary to be able to enable gadgets over on the Simple English Wiktionary. Since only administrators are able to edit the MediaWiki namespace, and I want to make sure that I enable them properly, I need to be a sysop for a brief period of time to be able to do so so that I can make sure to enable the gadgets correctly. I am not using this to get around the RfA system; I need technical access for a brief period of time to be able to enable gadgets correctly. Thanks, Razorflame 20:21, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello, the Simple English Wikipedia has plenty of crats and sysops, please ask there. MediaWiki-pages can be viewed by anyone btw., thanks, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 20:24, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

You do not need to be an admin to copy gadgets over. Click on view source and copy the code over. This is a very clear attempt to get around the RFA system. A message at Simple talk on the project would have been polite and courteous to the very active community there. Majorly ^talk 20:25, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

This was not a clear attempt to get around the RfA system. If I were trying to get around the RfA system, I would have requested full adminship, not just temporary. Cheers, Razorflame 20:27, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Whatever this request is closed as Not done, please request temp-adminship locally, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 20:28, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

The following three requests are related to elction results on arz.wikipedia, submitted for approval.And This is the link to the village pump page for the Election results announcement page.--Ghaly 12:00, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Does that mean that you are also elected as bureaucrat? (at least ترشيح بيروقراطين reads like that) --Thogo (talk) 17:32, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes I have been elected as a bureaucrat and a sysop as well. Ghaly 18:16, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello Ghaly, please can You tell us where the history of the voting is the voting pages history does only show Your edits, so I guess it had been copied from somewhere, please link the source page history, so I can have a look at it, many thanks, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 18:15, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

I just saw that it got deleted [1], please consider restoring the votes of the voters, for transparency, thanks, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 18:17, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

• The deletion was done because the history included personal information of one of the users , as he requested , I have restored it now , Please this nomination was for permanent position not for exxtension. --Ghaly 18:42, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
  • I see, well, You can consider deleting only the revisions with personal information or requesting oversight. With extension I mean permanent (or until someone locally asks for removal etc.), since I gave no expiration date :) Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 18:44, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Can I request to continue my 3-month adminship in Komi Wikipedia maybe plus 3 month else or more. I've been an administrator for 6 months now (2 x 3 months). Thank you. Yufereff 12:24, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello Yufereff, please can You make a short local note that You are going to prolong the status or link the page where You requested the status the first time, I can't find it right now, many thanks, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 21:16, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes! I'm only going to prolong my status.-- Yufereff 11:04, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Ok, but could you inform local community anyway?--Nick1915 - ^{all you want} 11:14, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Progress report? Please let us know where You put the local announcement, if there had been one in the past please link it or if there never had been any please leave a note in the village pump. If nothing is heard in about a week this request will be closed and the status not prolonged, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 22:24, 7 February 2009 (UTC)

...then why doesn't Shizhao promote the person locally and request removal when it expires? Kylu 06:58, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

(+)支持,但是我认为最好到meta那里去申请临时权限,因为本地没有撤销权限,或者您干脆就在这里申请非临时管理员吧?--Shizhao 2009年2月17日 (二) 06:38 (UTC)

shizhao means we had better ask for the permission on meta, because the removal cannot be done on zhwikibooks, only on meta, regards--Kegns 07:45, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Kylu. Even tho the removal can't be done locally, it is better if the right is given locally whenever it is possible. Steward aren't supposed to give right if there's an active bureaucrat on the wiki.

DarkoNeko 07:55, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

OK, I'll contact shizhao, thank you anyway.--Kegns 08:03, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello Ali, sorry but only for avoiding any confusion, is this request now for permanent adminship, because last time it was for temp? Btw., I hope You noticed, the messages from mzn.wiki had been imported already, if people still prefer to translate from mzn.wiki, I recommend to provide them a practical link to betawiki from mzn:MediaWiki:Editinginterface (something like: [http://translatewiki.net/wiki/MediaWiki:{{PAGENAMEE}}/mzn Translate this message here]), best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 08:35, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for delay, Yes i would prefer to be permanent (he got 2 votes in favor out of totally two votes), Surely when community grow up we'll vote again, This isn't for localization, but to avoid vandalism, he F5 on recentchanges page about 2-3 times a day, Thank You --Ali 04:18, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Done (log). The request has been open for about 3 months. The user received 100% support in that time. Not too many users participated, but this is a small project. Also noteworthy is that the user received the support of the two other Administrators in that project. Request granted, permanent adminship enabled. Good luck. Redux 16:42, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

--Bengoa (My user talk) 13:40, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

I am the only active user there, and already and been sysop 2 times tenporaly. This time wanted already forever, so another manager is not in the habit of being active. Thank you;) --Bengoa (My user talk) 13:43, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

And sorry my English, is bad ;P

Hola, pues solamente veo un voto por allí, propongo otro periodo de 6 meses, porque para obtener el flag de administrador permanente esto es demasiado poco. (p.s. no es necesario hacer un votación cada vez cuando quieres prolongar tu flag, simplemente puedes poner una petición por aquí unos días antes de que expire).

Estás de acuerdo con otro periodo de 6 meses? Un saludo, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 20:42, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Bien, por mi ningún problema. Para la próxima vez tendré encuenta lo de la petición, birdy ;D Bueno, un saludo ;P--Bengoa (My user talk) 22:50, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

I've added the bot policy to the pages here. Waiting for a steward to assign the rights global bot to this wiki. Laaknor 10:18, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I added the wiki to the set this morning. Just forgot to mention it. Anyhow, 5 votes is really a borderline case. Let's see what other stewards think. --FiliP ×ばつ 19:10, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

It is borderline. The wiki previously elected a crat with 6, apparently. I've sent a note to the mailing list to solicit more views. ++Lar: t/c 20:26, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not in favorof granting, looking at the votes. One of the votes is the candidate himself, one is Jose77 with edits mainly in 2007, two are users with less then 10 edits from other projects (fr: and it:). So actually, I only count one really good vote. So, I'm sorry, but that pulls the case over the borderline I think. Effeiets anders 20:41, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Effeietsanders conclusion, there seems to be one vote, that is not enough for bureaucrat, sorry, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 20:56, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

This is a really small wiki with less than 1000 articles. Please have a look at the active people on this wiki and you will see that we are... 3! We need highly the help of bots and someone to take care about them. However, last bureaucrat gave up and i didn't see any active steward on this wiki since a long time. If you think that you can take care and do a better job on this wiki than active people there, please do it. Guérin Nicolas ^(messages) 21:54, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello Guérin Nicolas, this is not about saying that someone would do a better job than You, it is just that there is no need for a local bureaucrat in such small communities, wo:Wikipedia:Bot and wo:Wikipedia:Yorkat are not spammed with backlogs. Stewards don't have to be active in the local community to help (and their actions won't be seen locally), the botrequests can be added to SRB and requests for permissions here.

Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 22:11, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Let me present you the things how it happened :

1) We saw that bot flag requests on the Bureaucrat's page were not satisfied anymore

2) So we decided to have a second bureaucrat because bot flag requests are existing on this wiki and still on demand.

3) I checked how many bots we have and i counted 35 (see here), this number justifies that some of them need to get a bot flags.

4) We decided to write a bot policy to allow global bot and to get a new bureaucrat to flag new bot. The idea behind is that this wiki is badly organised and that's maybe the reason why it doesn't attract people anymore.

5) We ran an election with the few people we have and try to get a maximum of vote. As i know there's no obligation for such votation on such wiki to exclude "old contributors" or "new contributors" (same as a votation on Commons), so the 4 votes are valid.

6) What you propose me in exchange is to check the Bureaucrat's page if there's a bot flag request, then if there's one request i have to go on SRB to make a new request, or to explain to people who want their bot flagged that they should go directly on SRB because we don't have bureaucrat anymore... This is really complicated in my oppinion and that's not helping us.

Please consider that there was an election and that this is election is over. I have impression really that we did this for nothing finally. How many votes do we need totally to have right to get a bureaucrat? Guérin Nicolas ^(messages) 23:04, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Can you ask the current 'crat to stand down, to clear the way for stewards to help you more easily? Because you have a very thin election turnout, and some of those folk are not huge contributors to your wiki. I'm inclined to think that it would be better to wait until your community grows further. I am sensing a potential consensus here among the stewards that this election is too small. ++Lar: t/c 23:14, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

The problem is that this community never grew since it exists, it was always less than 5 active people, some coming, some leaving. We try to attract more people by organizing better this wiki, and recently more people were interested to contribute on this wiki, that's why for the 'crat election you saw voters having few contributions. I can make that the election is opened for a longer time and ask 2/3 other active contributors to vote. For the current 'crat, i already left a message on his talk page for the election, i will try to contact him again but i cannot promise that he will answer. I understand what you mean, two bureaucrats are maybe to much for such a small wiki. But a biggest problem is too have no activ bureaucrat at all. Guérin Nicolas 12:07, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Guérin Nicolas and I talked a bit on IRC and I think the agreement was to wait a while for the local bureaucrats response, and to ask the users who requested bot-status on the local bureaucrats user-talk to come to SRB or the new local requestpage. Best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 21:49, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

So is this sorted and archivable then, or are we waiting further to see if the current local crat responds first? I wasn't completely clear but that's my guess... we're waiting ++Lar: t/c 16:47, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

I see no problem with leaving the request up here for another week while waiting for input from Guaka (or perhaps from Drini, who has been active on wo in the past). -- sj | help translate |+ 01:52, 22 January 2009 (UTC)

This wiki has very few active users and accepts the standard bot policy. I'm not sure a Crat is needed. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 02:06, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure if anybody tried this yet, but I just emailed the Crat. Hopefully that will work. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 23:56, 31 January 2009 (UTC)

That seemed to work. Current Crat logged in and set the flag. This thread can now be archived. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 17:25, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello, four votes are too few imho, if there are many botflag-requests I'd recommend to implement the bot policy, other opinions welcome as always, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 16:48, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

• Although the arz. wikipeida has many active users, and the nomination has been advertised since beginning, there was only those users who voted , The wikipedia has more than 1200 articles at the moment , and still expanding, there will be more issues needing a bureaucrat, especially appointing more sysops when needed, and other issues , that's why there was this nomination and it lasted for more than 10 weeks.--Ghaly 18:46, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
  • As said, imho 4 votes for cratship is a bit too few, and the project is not so big that it could not handle well without crats either, but I marked this for review for other stewards to comment, I have no problem if other stewards don't agree with my opinion and would agree to promote You, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 20:49, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Hm, I would say 10 weeks are much time to oppose for those who do not agree to having Ghaly as bureaucrat. Since noone opposed, I guess we can grant it. ~ --Thogo (talk) 20:53, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

I agree - enough time has been given to allow dissenters to voice their opinion. And there looks to be enough for a crat to do there given the number of successful admin noms. I recommend granting of Bureaucrat status to Ghaly per community consensus. --Daniel Mayer (mav) 22:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Yes, He is active, But my application was there since October 2008. But no action. So I am applying here.--Bellayet 08:06, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

If a local bureaucrat is active we will not grant the status from meta, please talk to him, remind him on his talkpage to have a look at the voting and to go to bn:special:userrights if he will grant the status, if he denies to grant You the status after a voting 3:1 that is his decision, if You think he abuses his position, You can open a discussion locally, so the community can review his actions or a RFC if the community is unable to solve the problem locally, best regards, --birdy geimfyglið _{(:> )=|} 08:17, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello, as said, the temporary sysop is the same as permanent one, except he has to confirm it here after three months, this just a quality control because the community is very small... he has 3 votes in favor (one of them is from an IP) and 1 vote in contra... I'd say this is not enough, other views welcome.

P.S. You said he wanted to edit MediaWiki-messges, I hope he is not planning to translate the interface there because this should only be done on betawiki: (where he would be very welcomed, if he wanted to help).
