Ләйсән@ba.wikibooks

Status:    Done

I want to be an administrator Ләйсән (talk) 19:08, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

Ләйсән Please post a local request at ba.wikibooks on their village pump or specific page where voting occurs and let it run for at least one week. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 20:43, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
Well, MF-Warburg has made you an administrator until 6 September 2017. In case you want to be an administrator for longer, you need to follow the procedure I noted above. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 20:45, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
A discussion is underway for a longer term at the link above, and should run through 1 September. I would add that Ләйсән was a responsible test-administrator on the project at Incubator, so has some mop experience. I would recommend six months as an initial term, provided the RfA is successful. StevenJ81 (talk) 17:57, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
Done for 6 months. – Ajraddatz (talk) 06:27, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

My temporary adminship expires in 8 days and I would like to renew it. No active community has been established yet, so only one user participated in the discussion (and supported me). I am therefore requesting a 5 months renewal --Kostas20142 (talk) 14:37, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

Extended for one year, to expire on 2 Sept 2018. I took the liberty of checking through your admin actions, and didn't see any causes for concern, so I'm comfortable granting the rights for a longer period of time. Thanks for your continued help on that project! – Ajraddatz (talk) 06:25, 2 September 2017 (UTC)

Please Re grant admin right. I have already lot of experience with the sysop tool as being a sysop on three Wikis and also a Global Sysops. Could I have this time the admin right permanently? It will avoid wasting time for all of us. DARIO SEVERI (talk) 07:10, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

On hold until August 27 to allow the request to be open for at least one week. RadiX∞ 20:17, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

After a week, the local request has been approved. Pedrohoneto (talk) 23:28, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

 On hold Outcome is being discussed. RadiX∞ 23:36, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
Granted for a year, per our internal discussion. Given the small size of the community, some were still uncomfortable with granting indefinite adminship at this time. – Ajraddatz (talk) 22:55, 4 September 2017 (UTC)

Пугачов Иван Петрович@xalwikipedia

Status:    Done

Dear administrators, I ask you to permanently protect the article Wikipedia:Бичлиһан Bichlihan, an active war of revisions by anonymous authors. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 15:16, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

You have requested the wrong place at here, those article protection tasks it should make requests at local wiki, your proposal at here would not be prudent. SA 13 Bro (talk) 15:27, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
But this wiki is not administrators. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 15:30, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
This wiki lists two administrators: User:Calmouk and User:Huuchin. However, it looks like neither has made an edit nor a log action since 2015. If so, then the page to request this would be SRM, I imagine. StevenJ81 (talk) 15:58, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
These two members User:Calmouk and User:Huuchin are no longer administrators. So, as they have not been active for more than two years. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 16:05, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
They are still listed there (see xal:Special:ListUsers/sysop). If the community voted to remove them from that status, or if they should have been removed because the community has an existing inactivity policy, then action was never taken on that, because they are still listed as administrators. StevenJ81 (talk) 16:08, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Here is the proof this and this. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 16:12, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
(This will be my last comment here, as Stewards really need to address)
  • You possibly have an issue that the administrator status of these two users should be terminated. If so, please place a notice to that effect farther down on this page, at #Removal of access.
Note to Stewards concerning the "proof" brought above: Rights were not removed during AAR 2014 due to xal:Special:Diff/71765 and xal:Special:Diff/71841, which were comments by the two local sysops themselves. Not that I speak that language, understand, but I saw no other comments but those two, and there was no link to a different discussion on the wiki. Whether those two comments by the sysops themselves are sufficient for them to continue holding those rights an additional two years later is your call, of course, not mine. But it does seem, at very least, that there are no sysops currently active on that wiki. StevenJ81 (talk) 16:46, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Any further comment here will have to come from a steward, which I am not. StevenJ81 (talk) 16:30, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Thanks to provide the local wiki situation. SA 13 Bro (talk) 16:35, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
Done, though requests like this should go to SRM. – Ajraddatz (talk) 17:10, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

Status:    Done

(I am requesting admin rights for Feipìn for a full year. He was already administrator once back to 2008, when he was active as F. Noceti. He did a brilliant job at the time as he is also knowledgeable of IT skills. We met lately and he decided to support my admin activity. We are very few people on Wikipedia Ligure, unfortunately, while most active users voted for him on https://lij.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators/candid%C3%A6 ) Luensu1959 (talk) 14:56, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

They will need to start a request on the local community discussion page, and after a week (even of no comment) we can grant access. – Ajraddatz (talk) 17:23, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

We already did it by posting on the "Pòrtego da comûnitæ" last August 24. The first item on our Ligurian community discussion page is titled "Eleççioin à amministratô". The first paragraph was posted by our leading admin called Giromin Cangiaxo, the second by me (Luensu1959) at a later date, and the third was posted by Feipìn(discuscioin) 06:21, 24 Ago 2017 (UTC). Correspondingly, users/members voted on the page indicated above. Luensu1959 (talk) 08:41, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

It was just a wrong link: you should use discussion=:lij:Wikipedia:Administrators/candidæ instead of pointing to an usertalk. While I see some votes from people with a few local activity I think there's a fair consensus in renewing/assigning these 1-year adminships. --Vituzzu (talk) 09:25, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

@Пугачов Иван Петрович: Please start a local discussion on the Village pump or some central location in your wiki and link it here. We can grant the permission after a week based on the discussion--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 06:01, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
@Shanmugamp7: And I have already made a request, here. Пугачов Иван Петрович (talk) 07:28, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
 On hold till 15 September --Shanmugamp7 (talk) 09:35, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
I'm in no position to comment at the local wiki. But I will point out that there are indefs on this user at four wikis under two different user names (User:Пугачов Иван Петрович and User:Пугачов Иван). That is, of course, not an automatic reason to decline this request, but I assume the stewards would wish to be aware of the situation. StevenJ81 (talk) 16:24, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Not done User has been indef blocked on more than three wikis and the contributions to xal wiki are not so convincing. As there is no active community at xal wiki to review the contributions, i am declining this request.--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 04:00, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
He seems to be banned from mhrwiki for changing some Ukraine related disputs and Georgia/Abkhasia situation related edits (he seems to change pro-Russian violation of NPOV to anti-Russian). I am not sure what exactly was in srwiki, but it seems that something related to Crimea, Transnistria, Kosovo disputes. Again he changes one NPOV violations to the opposite ones. In ruwiki he is blocked for being a sock of banned user:Пугачов Иван. The latter account banned for edit warring and destructive demeanour but viewing random edits does not show anything really bad. The latter acc also banned in vepwiki for as I can see also Georgia/Abkhasia related warring. Please note that in none of the wikis mentioned I have the permissions to see deleted contributions so I may get not the whole picture. But basing on what I see I do not think that bans before first 50 edits for edit wars where both sides are wrong (as neither tried to go for NPOV) is something which has to do with admin rights. For what it is worth he can influence territorial disputes related articles without admin privileges now. If it were up to me I would risk giving a temporary adminship for a short term and see how it goes. In case he uses his rights in a damaging way it always can be reverted. --Base (talk) 14:28, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

You need to open a discussion on that wiki, either on a "Request for adminship" page, if it exists, or on the Community Portal page, and see if members of the community will support you. That discussion needs to stay open for at least one full week. If the community supports you, you then come back to this page (above, at #Administrator access and ask the stewards to grant the right, including a link to the discussion on your home wiki. StevenJ81 (talk) 14:56, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
You may also need to explain your block history to the stewards in order to have those rights granted. A block history does not necessarily prevent you from getting rights in the future, but it does raise a concern that probably will need to be addressed. IMPORTANT: Don't start arguing that point here and now; this is not the place for it. StevenJ81 (talk) 15:01, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

@MarcoAurelio: It seems to me that this very narrow exception (a bureaucrat has asked for all his rights to be removed) ought to be an exception to the rule, such that the stewards can act directly. This is just unnecessary, er, bureaucracy. StevenJ81 (talk) 16:21, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
@StevenJ81: I'm just following policy. They decided to have extra bureaucracy when they asked and were granted the ability to remove sysop bits locally, so this was what had to be expected. We've defered back to local wikis other users in the same situation. I'd support however making an exception on the stewards' policy for cases like this, so we're all covered by policy and not from personal interpretations. I'm all for it, and in fact we can go ahead and remove the whole SP#Check_local_policies as steward duties ought only to be regulated on Meta for uniformity. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 11:38, 18 September 2017 (UTC)

By the way didn't the standard on hold procedure apply? --Base (talk) 03:01, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
It typically doesn't apply to rights beyond sysop (although I know some stewards do enforce the hold there too) since generally they're trusted enough to understand the dangers of a ragequit. Especially with CU/OS there may be legal reasons they are resigning, or they may not trust themselves enough to not violate someone's privacy and waiting might not be such a great idea. Of course, none of those are the case here. --Rschen7754 04:17, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
Besides: Savh told me a while ago that he wanted to quit and now asked me specifically to action it as soon as it was posted. So that's why I didn't wait. Trijnsteltalk 09:50, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Please remove the temporary admin-rights of User:Ymnes due to gross misuse of powers. This user blocked me while we had a conflict. Ymnes did not agree with my critical stance about the Dutch Wikinews and removed normal discussion content here with a reference to my critical stance: (in translation) procedural: "Processed requests will be removed by default on this page." Furthermore, I no longer want to look at that quarreling Banner that wanted to break the project on Meta. Then he came with a warning reading (in translation): (...) I therefore like to block and quickly. You have been warned, because this project is intended for people who want to build it. There is no doubt about that.. And indeed, he blocked me [1]. In a discussion later he stated that he is willing to block me permanently when I keep being critical, on Wikinews or elsewhere on Wikipedia. The Banner (talk) 01:29, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

Local drama
Wrong explanation. You reverted my clean up of a page according to local regulation. After I undid that and gave you a warning with explanation on your talk page, you reverted me again. You were warned, now you are blocked. In fact you're now exporting a wiki coflict to this project, and to Meta and nl.wikipedia before. @Administrator - Note that The Banner is not a contributor to nl.wikinews[2], he is in fact a threat to the project and has continuously attacked the project, yet when it had to be relaunched from the incubator. Ymnes (talk) 08:33, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
I'd like to make this story a little more complete for those who read this along. The discussion referred to hereabove by both Ymnes and The Banner was about a page on Wikinews-nl which had been nominated for deletion, first by me and then by The Banner. In my opinion, the nomination procedure should have lasted a little longer, so I do not fully agree with the deletion of the discussion by Ymnes yesterday (see here). Nevertheless, I have meanwhile accepted that the other steady contributors to Wikinews-nl prefer to keep the nominated page in the main space. In summary, I'm not completely happy with Ymnes' way of working here, but I think it would be a bridge too far to desysop him as he has also made many good contributions to the project during the last months. De Wikischim (talk) 09:25, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
It has been fully according to the procedures and that is what counts. People disagree regularly, so that is not a big deal. The Banner - who isn't a contributor of Wikinews - just entered the project to revert an administrator decision and making an edit war of it. Now afterwards, he is attacking me on Wikipedia, and on two places on Meta. He has block records on 4 projects, which are considerable on en.wikipedia and nl.wikipedia. In the past he has been found guilty of suck puppetry, and making public the personal name of a Wikipedia user. He has been subject to a number of arbcom disputes. Since the beginning of this year he has made it his objective to prevent the relauch of nl.wikinews and is campaigning against it since it has been reopened. A global lock on his account would be most appropriate. Ymnes (talk) 09:40, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
The request of Ymness for a global lock is the typical example why he is complete incompetent as an administrator, as he lets his own grudges prevail over WikipediaWikimedia. The Banner (talk) 17:25, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
In the basis this is not about Wikipedia, but about Wikinews. Actually, Wikipedia has nothing to do with this issue. I do not agree that Ymnes is fully incompetent as an administrator, notwithstanding the fact that I'm somewhat critical too to his way of working in this specific case (see above). De Wikischim (talk) 17:47, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
Sorry, I should have stated Wikimedia. But with his request, Ymnes shows that it is he who is a threat to Wikimedia. The Banner (talk) 17:50, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
That ("a threat to Wikimedia") is highly exaggerated. Not every user who blocks a little too fast is immediately a threat. De Wikischim (talk) 17:55, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
He is by now changing the of the game to back up his actions. Consensus, anyone? Please note that Ymnes with this rule change the possibility opens to block someone on Wikinews when he is critical about Wikinews on other projects. So my request to dispose him as an administrator on Meta-Wiki can be used for further blocks on Wikinews. The Banner (talk) 18:12, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
If you were a contributor to nl.Wikinews and would have helped to build the project - you're not such a person - than you wouldn't have had to fear anything. So why are you so afraid? The project is growing, we have new volunteers and this young project is doing very greatly, especially for a 'wikinews' project and for being such a small language as Dutch is. But we don't want to loose what we are building. In fact you were a real threat to the project before it reopened and since about yesterday you start to attack it directly at the project. We know your block records, arbcom records and your fury. @Steward, read this please (April 8) where The Banner is blocked because of his "battleground mentality". The Banner is not a Wikinews contributor. So let's skip this whole thing. In view of his track record, a global lock of his account is the best thing a to do. Ymnes (talk) 18:41, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
How many times are you going to repeat that I have been a bad boy in the past? Every time you want to get rid of criticism? And again you are now importing things from other projects that have no relevance for Wikinews but that you use as an excuse to defame me. Conduct not fitting for an administrator. Nowhere. The Banner (talk) 19:11, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
I have not seen a new born Banner. Here, elsewhere on Meta, on Wikinews, and Wikipedia, in just a weekend, I have seen a defaming one that attacks. "Battleground mentality" indeed, no change at all. Ymnes (talk) 19:25, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
And the only thing I still see is an incompetent administrator abusing his rights to silence other opinions. The Banner (talk) 19:36, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
I'm not your beggar. We are building a project and the progress is great. It's not your thing, you never wanted it, so why the fuzz. Ymnes (talk) 19:43, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
So when I start making contributions, you just use your own grudges and administrator rights to lock me out... The Banner (talk) 19:47, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
Oh my God, what a lie! To recapture: 1) there was a decision made and archived, 2) you reverted that, 3) I undid that and warned you on your talk page, inclusive of mentioning that avoiding my warning would have consequences, 4) you reverted me, 5) I blocked you and brought the discussion back into the archive. Ymnes (talk) 20:05, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
Your own words: Verder wil ik niet langer tegen die ruziezoekende Banner aankijken die het project kapot wilde maken op Meta The Banner (talk) 20:31, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
It says that I don't want that fight seeking user The Banner that searches to bring down the project. So I am a good administrator that protects nl.wikinews from you. Ymnes (talk) 21:00, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
And with that, you have provided the stewards enough evidence why your administrator rights should be revoked. Bye. The Banner (talk) 21:06, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

Status:    Done

I request the adminship. And l thank meno for his help and explanation---مصعب (talk) 02:57, 31 August 2016 (UTC) I would like to request temporary adminship for مصعب (Romanized: Mosaab, old username: 1339861mzb) for one year on Arabic Wiktionary. He was a temporary admin on that project for one year before but his term expired. See the linked discussion on Arabic Wiktionary Village Pump. (The only 2 users participating supported the nomination. The nomination was open for 10 days.) Mosaab is an experienced editor with more than 100k edits on Wikimedia projects. He is also an admin on Arabic Wikipedia. Meno25 (talk) 02:53, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

مصعب has not edited on the project at all for 3 months and not accepted the RfA it seems. --Stryn (talk) 14:17, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
You are right on this. Because of real life circumstances (He lives in a small town with no stable Internet access, so, virtually all of his edits are using his mobile.), he didn't have much time to edit, so, he preferred to edit on Wikipedia (check his recent edits on Wikipedia) rather than Wiktionary, since he was desysoped there. However, about 2 weeks ago, he contacted me and asked me to start a nomination to renew his adminship on Wiktionary as he said that he wanted to be active again there. Mosaab has made over 2000 edits on Wiktionary, which is extraordinary, given the fact that he uses his mobile only to edit and the small size of Arabic Wiktionary. And I have contacted him (both on wiki and privately) and asked him to confirm that he accepts the nomination on wiki and to return to editing on Arabic Wiktionary. However, last time we talked, he told me that his Internet access would be intermittent in the next few days, so, he may not be able to respond quickly. Could you, please, leave this request open for a few more days? --Meno25 (talk) 15:03, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

Please re-open the local discussion so that it runs 7 days. As of now, it has only run 5. Thank you. -- Avi (talk) 19:54, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
Re-opened the local discussion, struck ineligible votes according to the local voting criteria and unstruck an eligible vote that had been struck. Savhñ 00:42, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
Cheers. The vote against me says that my Abkhaz skills are not good, but the criteria of administrating does not say that I must idealy know the language. I was an admin there for more than a year and was doing my job good. Ilya Drakonov (talk) 12:32, 11 March 2017 (UTC).
Not exactly. I stated that a permanent administrator must understand the language (well, I used a translator as I don't speak Abkhaz either). The fact that the entire voting page is in a mixture of English and Russian without a single word (bar some elements of interface) in Abkhaz makes me think that the community is not big enough to have a permanent admin. It might be OK to have a short-term temporary adminship when one doesn't speak the language at all until there is a better candidate but definitely not a permament one — NickK (talk) 20:11, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
Done Granted for 6 months to expire on 2017-09-11. Based on the reduced size of the community, we would not grant permanent adminship, and there seems to be consensus for approving adminship, since it will be granted temporarily. The local criteria may not require the proper language knowledge, but that may nonetheless be a concern for the users participating in the request. Savhñ 21:14, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
Ok. Cheers. Ilya Drakonov (talk) 19:06, 12 March 2017 (UTC).

This wiki has only one active sysop [3]. I am already sysop on Wikivoyage (pt) and Wikipedia (pt) in which besides the normal editions as editor I have another 16,500 administrative editions as Sysop. There is no against votes and 2 support votes, one of them is the actual sysop, the other one is a sysop and bureaucrat in the Spanish wikinews. Permanent adminship is hereby kindly requested. DARIO SEVERI (talk) 11:12, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

Under these circumstances only temporal adminship for 3-6 months is possible. Ruslik (talk) 20:39, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

Why don't you remove the temporary admin rights and then immediately assign them again as other stewards are doing? Stryn (talk) 17:24, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

MarcoAurelio. User:Samuele2002 It's very young, very active and... a bit rushy :), usually ther are no other users involved in global debates and last but likely first, he ovelooked the related rule. I posted two warnings, in the procedure discussion and at the Bar (It Wikiversity global issues page). So please wait for us the required time. Regards--Pierpao (talk) 08:02, 16 September 2017 (UTC)
We discussed the matter informally some days ago on it.wiki as well (here). Small project > efficient project. ;) --Lucas (talk) 16:21, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
@Lucas: credo ci sia un po' di confusione, fra importer e importer transwiki, sono due cose ben diverse. Il primo importa come possono importare gli admin, il secondo può importare anche "fuori" dal menu a tendina di speciale:importa. Da quanto leggo gli serve e si è discusso del primo soltanto, ma viene chiesto il secondo. --Vituzzu (talk) 16:27, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
@Vituzzu: Se non leggo al contrario, qui si è chiesto il flag di Importer transwiki (e non quello di importer) che ha il privilegio "import" ma senza il privilegio "importupload", sbaglio? --Lucas (talk) 17:03, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
Hai ragione, ma ho il sospetto che a un certo punto siano state scambiate le etichette. --Vituzzu (talk) 18:31, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
Confermo che la richiesta è per il flag di Importatore transwiki che può solo importare dalle wiki abilitate (come gli admin). Non di importatore (che può importare da file xlm.). --Samuele2002 (Talk!) 20:18, 15 September 2017 (UTC)
