I think smiddle should be an admin because he has been there for a lot and has not came into any edit wars or blocks. He claims that his edit speed is why he may not become a sysop, However, a lot of admins are slightly inactive sometimes.--Arceus fan 00:10, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Bureaucrat access

th.wikipedia

Again, I would like to request three bureaucrat accesses as I already requested on August 26 ([7] and [8]). I did follow the suggestion from Effeietsanders requesting in User Ahoerstemeier talk page; it seems to me that he's busy with other projects. I had been asked by few Thai Wikipedians about this process, so I decided to ask again in here. Please let me know what the best way I can do.

Thank you --Manop 20:00, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Validated, it seems Ahoerstemeier hadn't responded at all to the request, even though his account has edited. ~Kylu (u|t) 03:59, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

These seem to be Done by somebody. — Dan | talk 21:21, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

I am very sorry, the request slipped through, partly due to a week of being offline due to vacation, partly because of being busy with several other editing tasks. But now I have made those three requested user to bureaucrat. Actually, I never intended to get bureaucrat access on th-wiki, it was apparently given by accident. I became sysop on th: to help this wiki in its infancy - but now rarely use the sysop powers as there are several Thai language admins. Ahoerstemeier 21:25, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

hu.wiktionary

Please grant bureaucrat access (no matter whether or not it has been set) on hungarian wiktionary. We need to operate, and there are usually only a few people working (wiktionary is not a very useful project, but anyway), right now Antissimo who voted and me, who usually do the admin stuff. There was no vote against me in the last 3 years. ;-) [I re-voted myself just to make it unambiguous that the request still holds.] I'm already admin and my uid is 3, so I really happen to be around for quite a time. ;-) By the way I'm bureaucrat on most of the Hungarian wikimedia projects (apart other rights which I do not need on hu.wikt right now). I'm not regularly monitor this page so if you need any further info be so kind as to use email (through any of the wikimedia projects I'm active).

This request was already put up and somehow put away, see /Archives/2007/08#hu.wiktionary. Please act as if there was no request before, as I do not remember what was back then (and I left the project for a while due to some serious disagreement with the working member of that era, but hopefully he's not active there anymore). It's possible that the right wasn't even set. Not important now.

Thanks. --grin 08:48, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Not done First of all I think that the vote is weird with votes from 2004. Furthermore, only two votes actually, which is not sufficient to gather bureaucrat status. You can put the requests you would normally put up with bureaucrats here, on the Requests for Permissions page. Effeietsanders 16:59, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

I don't think so. Are you suggesting that the ID requirement should be fulfilled prior to the grant of stewardship? From the Q&A phase of the community review on his candicacy (request for CheckUser permission), it is rather clear that he is aware of the policy and intends to follow it. Tomos 09:34, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, it seems to be mundatory, after there solution became effective. We English Wikiquote CUs must have waited to be flagged almost a week. And as you know, yesterday was a public holiday in the USA, I don't think Cary as VolCo contacted him. I rather expect his jawiki collegue to have instructed what was expected.

Oversight access

Removal of access

If you want to request that your own status be removed, please don't forget to place a note in English on your local user talk page. This is required to prove your identity. And then add the request here.

To request the removal of another user's status, you must gain consensus on the local wiki first. All discussion must be kept on your local wiki. When there is community consensus that the user's access should be removed, a trusted person from that wiki should provide a link here to the discussion, a very brief explanation of the reason for the request, and summarize the results of discussion.

Removal of sysop rights of Steinninn and Ic201. These two sysops got into strong arguments over special:upload as well as the look of the homepage. With the results of the community voting that they be removed of sysop access for bad behavior. 4 voted for the removal and 2 against the rights removal. The community has not set up any rules of how many have to be against and how many for removal of rights, and in these cases I would say that the majority should decide.

Er it says quite clearly on the admin page "If you would like to become an administrator, apply at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions." Which means ask a steward. Majorly (talk) 21:22, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Well, obviously the person who did that did not know what they were talking about. See testwiki:WP:NOT. Cbrown1023 talk 21:24, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Not done -- Cbrown is right; this is not the purpose of the test wiki. You are welcome to install MediaWiki yourself and test whatever features you please. — Dan | talk 21:24, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Or alternatively, ask nicely on this wiki for sysop/whatever access, or try editthis.info if you don't want to install mediawiki. Majorly (talk) 21:28, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Please file a request for adminship on Wikipedia and come back when community elected you. MaxSem 08:23, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
That is the problem. There are only one admin in that Wikipedia and I can't find a way to contact him. The admin does have user account but he is not active. Kurniasan 09:07, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
How about this. Post in some public page (village pump) that you want to be a sysop. After 1 week, if you have no considerable opposition (for instance, if wiki is inactive, nobody will oppose ;) come here, show us the page, and we'll sysop you. drini [es:] [commons:] 03:00, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

I request sysop access.

One week has passed from when I filed the local request. The bureaucrats, Aaa and Fefeli, are absent for a long time.

Thank you. Dead3y3 18:14, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I cannot read Greek, but it looks to me that you had no votes in support... --Paginazero - Ø 18:52, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Indeed. But there is no community to vote for me. There are anonymous users who contribute sporadically to the project. And recently only one registered user (Avacalop) contributes daily. But I think that if I ask him to vote for me, this could be called at least violation of the procedure. --Dead3y3 21:56, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
It may be best to poke him... ask him to put forth his opinion whether it be a good one or a bad one. Cbrown1023 talk 21:57, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the advice! --Dead3y3 22:01, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
He expressed his opinion, and it is a good one. Should I now wait for one more week, or the sysoping could take place right away? --Dead3y3 16:31, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
Access granted until 01 September 2007. There is not enough input for permanent administrator access; please hold a new election then for permanent access, or ask to have your temporary access extended. —{admin} Pathoschild 00:06:17, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Tagalog Wikibooks

I request sysop access on the Tagalog Wikibooks. I am the current administrator on the Tagalog Wiktionary and the former administrator of the Tagalog Wikibooks until it expired some time last year. Since then, while there is a semblance of a "community", the wiki has gotten very unruly and I would hope to clean it up (note also that perhaps all are unaware of this request process or even how to vote in support of an administrator).

Thank you. --Sky Harbor 00:08, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

I request sysop access in order to clean spam and non-sense pages on this wiki.

I request import access.

Normally it's sysop access which gets import automatically, but I don't really need protection/deletion or anything else: I'd just like to cleanup the "MoveToMediaWiki" queue. Thank you. GrooveDog 02:08, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

You really should contact the local MediaWiki bureaucrats. "Import" group is not given out lightly, it allows for users to upload from files too, which can cause collateral damage. It's best to just ask the local 'crats (they'll normally give them out if you help here & are trusted), they should also weigh-in to this if they think this it the best route.
