Global rename for Mahitgar

Not ending before 15 September 2014 02:47 UTC

Hi, I am beurocrat from mr wikipedia. (This is log about change of name activity done by me on local mr wikipedia uptil now). We do have some local technical renaming concerns for Devnagari Script which I have discussed with User_talk:Keegan_(WMF) and I suppose I would need to support username change requirements and requests coming from Devnagri script using wiki's namely Marathi, Hindi etc wikis.

Mahitgar (He who knows ,wants to know and and loves to keep others informed) (talk) 02:47, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I have two questions for you: 1) You mention helping on Marathi and Hindi wikis; do you plan on fulfilling other rename requests? 2) In a recent comment you have made on Meta, you wrote: "all mr-wiki project indiepandance be vehemently defended and not compromised at all costs and independance retained in favour of Marathi people only for ever." [1] Do you think that this will affect your candidacy and/or how you will use the right? --Rschen7754 03:17, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Good questions
1.1) I said primarily to concentrate on Devnagri script language wikis and as such list goes beyond Marathi and Hindi to say bhojpuri nepali and more are there but bigger projects are no doubt Hindi and Marathi so I mentioned those names.
1.2) It not that we may not work for other requests at all but naturally including me most of beurocrats focus and concern is likely to remain to serve their own communities first, and secondlly including me for most of beurocrats from local language wikis we are busy in lot of other work in local wikis to do. We are here to take care of the load wherever and whenever possible and needed and will try to be assisting positively in the process whatever meta has adopted.
2.1) Including me most of local beurocrats will be representing and taking care of their own communities that does not mean we will be unfair to the others. As far as mr-community is concerned even for roman script usually a Marathi persons account naming would be unique and different and not much likely to go into conflict with another user name. And even if it goes in conflict some where we would be guiding marathi language users to use Devnagri script names rather than wasting their time over roman script user names. And if we are not much likely to go in conflict with roman script names issues then why rest of i.e. non-Devnagri script meta community need to worry about our actions.
2.2) As far as Devanagri script names are concened I have already mentioned that we will be consulting among ourselves and place mutually agreeable policy. I am sysop on one of Hindi projects, I was sysop beirfly for Sanskrit language project I know sysops well from nepali language projects and I do have a good enough understanding to find a common policy with them as far as Devanagri names are concerned.
2.3) As far as defending indipendance of project is concerned we do stand by that does not mean we are anarchyst in any way, If any such thought is in any body's mind they need to revisit their thoughts. As far we oursevels are concerned our thoughts and actions are transperant clear and well within spirit of wikimedia principles. From Marathi Wikipedias side I recently co-operated with Nemo, as Hindi wiktionary sysop I cooperated with you as per Hindi communities wishes. I am an editor on english wikipedia also when I will be representing english wikipedia I will be taking into account english wikipedia' community's views in account.
If this global renaming process at any point of time unduly interfers local aspects and remains unfair against wikimedia spirit certainly I would be the first person to point it out and defend local project independance very well. But according to me most probably in wiki projects user names are not that important also to waste time on unncessary conflicts.
Let it put me again as far as Devanagri script wikis I am capable to co-ordinate and resolve policy issues among ourselves. And we have no reasons to get in conflict waste our time with other language script wikis.
And still by opting Global renamer ship I have to surrender our project indipendance or any body feels I will aquire some other projects indipendance that moment I will not remain interested in this task. Am I clear enough ?
Thanks and regards

@Keegan (WMF): is this the best of Meta you wanted experienced beurocrats from projects come and help for ? I did not understand how some ones pro project independance stance can be reason to question candidature in itself ? If some one puts his points others do not bother to exmine logic ? Even a single person has bothered to read technical problems I mentioned at User_talk:Keegan_(WMF) our local project is facing ? Is this the good faith Meta works with other project beurocrats ?
If global renamer issue is not properly addressed at Meta why WMF agrees and ind what hurry to make software changes unsuitable for local projects ?
Some one will come out with some excuses but simply this attitude does not help local communities and underlines importance of maximum local project independance.

@Snowolf: I have no argument against logic that believes who eat more tend to eat in more healthy way. First whatever requests we received on dedcated request page and requests received on my talk page I belive I attended all of them. I would have been more happy if you would have asked me what process and care I took while doing renaming, then I do have answer ready, you or any one for that matter is welcome to visit this local request page for non-Marathi requests or this local page for Marathi request every one is most welcome to read not only elaborate care taken while investigating the request but I have always taken notes why and how any particular action is taken. I have not only maintained best of communication practices who made the requests, also I have taken care to not only due effort to communicate with user whos account is likely to get usurped, even with their inactivity I have taken care to see that they are not active on any other project other than Marathi too , and even if they are inactive across all projects I have taken fair care that their ability to contribute in future should not get affected.
Forget my efforts if Meta is taking care of renaming and more hardworkers are there than me here, logically I should not have any comlaint and happy that my own time being saved, but again before putting up your comment have you really visited the concerns I raised at User_talk:Keegan_(WMF)#Global_renaming_Devnagri_script_Marathi_language_technical_concerns ; Is there any other steward or global renamer available with you (Meta) who can understand spelling mistakes in user names user:मादुरि बबन हवेलिकर , user:सचिन चव्हण and help those newbies so that if they try to log in again will not get a frustrating experience. In user:श्रीरम् in this case there a user name with correct spelling exists already Do you have any global renamer or steward who understand spelling mistake in this and what would be most ideal course of action. If you have any other steward or global renamer to give justice to such cases I would be most happy to withdraw my candidature here with; cause number of such cases for mr-wiki are rapidlly increasing and I am planning to send atleast a such dozen requests to Global renaming request page.
Following table gives you List of Beurocrats for Devnagri script wikipedias and their user renaming if any

Those who do not take all aspects and comments in to account can be capable to handel all projects for Meta can ceratianly be a good news. If Meta does not want me on board then as of now I can offer my best wishes . And Thank you any way.

Comment Comment To me this indicates that there hasn't been many undertaken as there hasn't been the indicated need. So it is hard to get the experience, though there is currently not a large requirement from the community for that skill-base. That may relate to comparative number of users, or the information provided about renames. So the skill will be needed at a point of time, but not demonstrably needed now, though it would be useful to have at least one user experienced in the Indic languages and scripts.  — billinghurst sDrewth 02:43, 4 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.I'm bureaucrat of Japanese Wikipedia since 27 August 2011. I had commented and adviced to local users as bureaucrat in local request page.(but the logs I used renamer right does not exist.) Since I am a native speaker of Japanese, I can rename easily not only alphabet name but also Japanese characters and Chinese characters name. Of course, I'll follow strictly Global rename policy.--W.CC (talk) 03:35, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you all. I'm satisfied I should follow your advices. I extend the period of my candidacy by 2 weeks. I'd like to discuss more whether I qualified to be the global renamer or not. I have less experience than other many local bureaucrat, but I can assure you agein that I follow strictly Global rename policy and global community.--W.CC (talk) 15:33, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Global rename for Kanjy

Not ending before 15 September 2014 13:23 UTC

Hello, I'm a bureaucrat at ja.wikibooks and ja.wiktionary. I would like to help out renaming requests, especially (but not only) as a ja-N, native Japanese speaker, as well as User:rxy. I experienced in using the renaming tool over 700 times totally at ja.wikibooks and ja.wikipedia for both renaming and usurpation requests. If you would see I have denied too many requests, I have no excuses for not being bold enough but too cowardly to be a bureaucrat. And because I'm such a coward and I'm not very active recently, I would like to be reviewed for 2 weeks although I've been a crat for years. --Kanjy (talk) 13:23, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I was recently elected bureaucrat on es.wiki (May, 16 2014). Despite my short experience as a bureaucrat, since I was elected sysop, I have been interested actively in responding renames change requests in my local wiki (see here). Global rename flag would be very useful for me, as it is a task that I can collaborate and I want to help. I would rename mainly eswiki users, but I can also help with requests in Portuguese and French, always based in policy. Thanks for considering my request. Jmvkrecords (Intra Talk) 14:37, 1 September 2014 (UTC).[reply]

  • I am not entirely sure about whether this request should last for 2 weeks or not. The user made only 5 renames, but also (rightly) rejected a lot of unnecessary rename requests, e.g. from people who only made 2 edits or so with their account. --MF-W 14:47, 1 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your message. I have renamed a few users, as I've always let Stewards respond to positive requests. This prevents to break global accounts. I've been waiting for the issue to begin to be handled in a unified way in Meta. But if you prefer that this request lasts 2 weeks, is not a problem for me.

  • Fine by me. Vogone (talk) 23:40, 3 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems all administrators appointed on eswiki automatically receive bureaucrat rights, i.e. administrator==bureaucrat. So there is no seperate appointment of "bureaucrats" on eswiki and users are not subject to an additional level of scrutiny over-and-above administrators. Accordingly, I'm not sure such users should receive "speedy" approval for global renamer the same way bureaucrats who have been subject to that additional scrutiny should. That said, the requesting user was well-supported by 95% of commenting users at their request for adminship. –xeno 16:18, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    You are right with your facts, though I disagree with your conclusion. I don't think the home wiki of a user, in this case eswiki, should be of importance when deciding whether a speedy closure is appropriate or not. We might not have a separate process for Bureaucrat rights, though we have one of the larger communities around here and our admins (and bureaucrats, therefore) are certainly trusted users. I wonder as well whether you feel the extra scrutiny on most projects is focused on the renaming ability, or mainly because they hold the possibility to grant (and sometimes even remove) admin and bureaucrat rights. I personally find the usage of the renaming tool a far more important criteria when considering this right. I feel the extra scrutiny is irrelevant, specially if we don't take the size of a project into consideration. Cordially, Savhñ 17:51, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    I think we should be more concerned with rename experience than what process they went through to become bureaucrats. Different projects have different standards; what's important is to allow experienced folk to continue to rename users. Though, a lack-of-experience argument is certainly valid here.

Comment Comment. For answer you all, it is true that I have a short experience renaming user accounts. However, since the page change request name was created in 2005, few eswiki bureaucrats have been active users renaming accounts. The most active of all is Savh. Despite I was elected only 4 months ago, I am one of the users that has more participation in the process of renaming users since 2005. Right now I'm in the top 20.

It is true that the majority of requests I answered I denied name changes for users with few edits or requesting inappropriate usernames. However, denying a request should also be considered when evaluating experience of a candidate. It is not just to have a large number of renames in the registry.

On the other hand, it is difficult to have a large number of user name changes in four months, specially now, because user accounts have been migrated to the unified identification system. Instead of responding to someone saying that I can not rename it because I have not the right tools, but I'll ask a steward to do it for me, I preferred to let Savh, who is an active steward in eswiki, respond to those requests. Anyway, I am interested in renaming user accounts task, and since last four months, I'm one of the users with significant participation in this task.

Just as additional data, since I was elected sysop on eswiki, I am the third most active sysop of my wiki. Also, I will actively use the flag if the global community decides to give me this flag. Sure, following the policies. Best regards. Jmvkrecords (Intra Talk) 05:15, 10 September 2014 (UTC).[reply]

Maybe my English is bad... Please correct my message starting from original text in Spanish:

Comentario. Para responder a todos, es cierto que tengo poca experiencia renombrando cuentas de usuario. Sin embargo, desde que la página de solicitudes de cambio de nombres fue creada en 2005, son pocos los burócratas que han sido activos renombrando usuarios en eswiki. El más activo de todos es Savh, y yo, a pesar de haber sido electo hace cuatro meses, ya soy uno de los usuarios que más ha participado en el proceso de renombrado de usuarios. En este momento estoy en el top 20. Es cierto que la mayoría de peticiones que he respondido ha sido para negar el cambio de nombre a usuarios con pocas ediciones o que solicitan nombres inapropiados. Sin embargo, negar una solicitud también debería ser considerado a la hora de evaluar experiencia. No se trata de renombrar solo por tener un número elevado en el registro.

Por otro lado, es difícil tener un número elevado de cambios de nombre de usuario en cuatro meses, más cuando ahora las cuentas de usuario han sido migradas al sistema de identificación unificada. En lugar de responder a alguien diciéndole que no puedo renombrarlo porque no tengo las herramientas adecuadas, pero que voy a pedirle a un steward que lo haga por mí, he preferido dejar que Savh, quien es un steward activo en eswiki, responda a esas solicitudes. Como sea, la actividad de renombrar cuentas de usuario en eswiki es una de las actividades que más me interesa y desde hace cuatro meses, soy uno de los usuarios de eswiki que más ha participado en ello.

Solo como dato adicional, desde que fui escogido sysop en eswiki hace cuatro meses, soy el tercer sysop más activo de mi wiki. Asímismo, usaré activamente el flag si la comunidad global me lo concede. Con cuidado, siguiendo las políticas y arduamente. Un saludo a todos.
