I am requesting temporary adminship to help run Picture of the Year CentralNotice banners. I'm an admin on Commons, familiar with the CentralNotice tool, and I've done this for POTY before. Based on consultation with the WMF, we plan to adjust the banner impression rate during the contest based on community performance to avoid banner blindness. Permissions should expire March 9.

Last year, there were some issues with the work you did, including the blinding banners and what not. I would personally prefer if a different member of the POTY team dealt with the notices. Snowolf ^{How can I help?} 02:22, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The user was desysopped on outreachwiki last year for setting up an abusefilter to prevent edits to his talkpage. --Rs chen 7754 02:28, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To prevent all edits or just ones from a specific vandal/LTA? PiRSquared17 (talk) 01:10, 17 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

~~These issues were addressed last time here. I don't find it necessary to respond again.~~ (Looks like I missed the comment about 'blinding banners.' No such thing ever existed, considering the colors were light blue & green.) Mono 00:10, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

But what about the concerns raised at Meta talk:Requests for adminship/Mono (temp)? --Rs chen 7754 00:19, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per the events last year with this temporary adminship, with the user sticking blinding banners around and what not and the events on outreach wiki, where the user fully protected his talk page and then protected it with an abusefilter to prevent any edits to it, as mentioned by Rschen. The organizing committee for this year already has a Meta admin, and I think they should handle this matter instead. Snowolf ^{How can I help?} 04:44, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose - I doubt that Mono would set up an abusefilter to restrict edits to his talk page here, especially since CN adminship doesn't include rights to do that. However, the events here of last year are enough to lead me to also suggest that another person involved with POTY do this. Ajraddatz (Talk) 01:36, 17 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Request withdrawn. The banners do need to go up, so I'm sure one of you two would be willing to set up the campaigns. Here are instructions - please let me know if you have any questions. Mono 00:22, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
