Talk:Request for an account on the Foundation wiki/Archives/2007

From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

Archiving

Just thought: is there a problem that people who are not in charge of creating accounts archive past requests either accepted, rejected or left without reply to question(s), specially if there is written criteria for archiving? --Aphaia 09:45, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

since there is no objection, I am going to just remove fulfilled requests (you may find them in history). If you prefer to keep them, you may revert my edit and create an archive ;) --Aphaia 21:44, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Email confirmation

Aparantly, if someone requests an account on the foundation wiki, they have to provide an email adress and therfroe disclose it to the public, I would therefore recommend that if possible, someone requesting an account at meta not specify their primary email adress, and then change it to that once they have logged in.

Thank you for your recommendation, but their mail address is need at the moment we create them new accounts and send them passwords. I don't want to add more steps and increase my workload. --Aphaia 16:42, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
What Myrt is suggesting will still work, the user (not you) would perform the change in their preferences. It shouldn't increase your workload. Cbrown1023 talk 15:25, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

P/S: I put my request here because the content page itself is locked so i cannot edit.

Hi, I would like you to know you can help translation without account. In other words, we would like all translators principally to work here on meta, not on the website directly. See Translation requests for further information. Thanks. --Aphaia 17:57, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
This request is rejected. As of yet, Aeonimitz is not a sysop on Malay Wikipedia (ms:Special:Listusers/sysop). He is either not active on meta. --Aphaia 11:00, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi. I'm Gp75motorsports. I've got an account on 'Pedia and Commons. I want an account here because I think that I could be an active contributor to all Wikimedia projects. --24.254.198.112 21:08, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

Requests should be made on the main page, not here, though you're not likely to get an account if you don't provide a stronger argument for why you need one. EVula // talk // // 21:57, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
