My request for temporary admin status at ladwiki

1. Thank you for deleting that not-in-Ladino page.
2. I asked here for community support for temporary administrator status. The Spanish version of that request said,

Los administradores (Wikipedia:Bibliotecarios) no están activos aquí ahora. Estoy trabajando en la limpieza de los artículos en el alef-bet hebreo. Pregunté en Meta para derechos "Administrador" de duración de un mes. Voy a hacer lo que me tiene que hacer. Gracias por su apoyo.

If that is not good Spanish could you help me fix it? Thanks. StevenJ81 (talk) 21:56, 5 July 2015 (UTC)

@StevenJ81: No problem. Sure

Los administradores (Wikipedia:Bibliotecarios) no están activos ahora. Estoy trabajando en la limpieza de los artículos del alfabeto hebreo, y he pedido en Meta-Wiki el permiso de administrador durante un mes. Haré cualquier cosa en la que me necesiten como administrador durante ese periodo. Gracias por su apoyo.
