Thanks for read myrequest. Murbaut (talk) 03:29, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

I have explained the process in IRC but still it seems Murbaut didn't follow that, so i left a message on the local crat's talk pages--Shanmugamp7 (talk) 10:46, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
I would like to contest the above user request due the fact that (1) He is not meeting minimum edit counts required i.e. 500 edits (required) vs. 186 edits (actual) -->Edit Counter; and (2) The voting period also didn't followed/complied with ms.wikipedia.org's guideline i.e. obtain more than 70% votes in the following situation (a) There were 14 votes within a week, OR (b) ballout has been on going for more than 14 days. For this case, the user failed to meet all requirements. As such, I disagrees for him to be appointed as the sysop at ms.wikipedia.my. Zamwan (talk) 14:22, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
Closing as not done - no reason to believe this will not be handled appropiately locally. Savhñ 14:32, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi @Zamwan: I see for the time being allowed to come out of the requirements to become an administrator in mswiki (evidence)Murbaut (talk) 04:17, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi @Murbaut:, you are correct. Nomination to be an admin is allowed at ms.wikipedia.org as long as you have meeting its pre-requisite requirements. Your case is totally different with Polar. Zamwan (talk) 11:33, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Thanks Savh. Hi @Zamwan: I just want to help tackle vandalism, I intend both to combat vandalism, I know you're administrator, but I want the board in mswiki it would be quick to respond. I just remind that administrators in mswiki many inactive. And also, admin are some active but does not care about the vandalism. Thanks Savh, Shanmugam7 and einsbor. Murbaut (talk) 04:17, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Your statement on admins do not care about vandalism is totally misleading. I understand your desire to be an admin and tackle vandalism but sadly to say, each wiki communicate has their own requirements and we (including you) should obey it. Your desire to combat vandalism doesn't warrant or give you privileges to bypass/waive the rules. Zamwan (talk) 11:33, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
@Zamwan: I don't intend to bypass requirement. But in this case we need more admin, I think you hinder me to be the admin, and it np, I still many other interests. Please do not edit this task, see the status of Not Done you know. Sincerely Murbaut (talk) 13:56, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

User לערי ריינהארט@eo.wikipedia

(your remarks) Ask for help:

I am a burocrate of the Esperanto-Wikipedia and we need the help of a Steward. The following user לערי ריינהארט (Leri Reinhart) possesses administrative rights in our Esperanto-Wikipedia. As he is inactive as administrator since more than two years, our community decided in a pooling to withdraw the administrative rights of לערי ריינהארט (Leri Reinhart) according to our regulation for inactive administrators. As no member of our community has rights as a steward, I now as burocrate of our community ask your help as steward to implement our decision. This decision concerns only the adiministrative rights of לערי ריינהארט (Leri Reinhart), whose contributions of course always will remain welcome.

Here the links to the user page of לערי ריינהארט (Leri Reinhart):

Our discussion was done here:

I thank you in the name of the Esperanto-Wikipedia community for your help. DidiWeidmann (talk) 12:50, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

I want to add a bit of information to the words by our respected bureaucrat DidiWeidmann. According to the rule about administratorship in Wikipedia in Esperanto, "If some administrator has not made any contribution to the Wikipedia since one complete year, his administratorship must be removed automatically by a steward. The administratorship removal must be announced beforehand on the Forum and on the talk page of the concerned user" (Se iu administranto ne faris ajnan kontribuon al la Vikipedio ekde unu plena jaro, li estu aŭtomate maladministrantigita de stevardo. La maladministrantigo estu antaŭsciigata en la Diskutejo kaj en la diskutpaĝo de la koncernita uzanto). לערי ריינהארט has not edited after 12 Sep 2015 and has not made protocol actions after 13 Mar 2014.

  • Done masti <talk> 19:31, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
    • @Tar Lócesilion: What about his checkuser rights? Right now he gets to keep them. Or isn't there a local policy for it? Trijnsteltalk 19:33, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
      • Also @Masti: Isn't this your homewiki? --Rschen7754 19:34, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
        • The steward policy suggests avoiding conflicts of interest. What is the particular conflict of interest here? – Ajraddatz (talk) 19:54, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
          • I can think of all sorts of things. --MF-W 01:11, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
          • It's avoiding the potential for any conflict of interest. In this particular case, there is some ambiguity as to whether CU rights should be retained or not. --Rschen7754 01:12, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
            • Masti didn't remove any CU rights, only the sysop rights that were requested here. Unless you can point to a specific conflict of interest that Masti might have (or could even possibly have) in removing the rights, then I don't think it's useful to bring it up. That part of the steward policy is obviously meant to prevent stewards from being "super-users" on their home project, and I don't think that actioning uncontroversial requests on SRP is at all part of that. Note that while I dislike the COI policy being thrown around in obviously clear-cut cases, I also don't see why it is so hard for stewards to simply recuse from taking actions involving their home wikis and prevent these discussions altogether...Ajraddatz (talk) 01:14, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
              • But should he have removed the CU rights? Do we consider rollback to be a use of the sysop tools? (that issue came up on a wiki in the past, check the archives) Also, if we allow for stewards to act on their home wiki's inactivity policies, I could see selective enforcement taking place... --Rschen7754 01:36, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
    • @Trijnstel: there's no such policy. Since I have no access to CU log, I can't learn whether Karol007 is an active CU or not. Tar Lócesilion (queta) 19:42, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Mycēs@lawiki

Hi. Per the local policy. This user is inactive for 3 years on Latiniate Wikipedia, and local policy requires administrative actions/edits in less than 6 months. Sysop access can be removed. Local bureaucrats cannot process the removal of sysop rights. --Ks-M9 [disc.] 23:31, 23 November 2016 (UTC).

Was the user notified and given one month of time to become active again, as the same policy requires? --MF-W 23:38, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
My bad, I've notified the user on his talk page. I withdraw this request. Moreover, his account hasn't unified in other wikis due to a forced change of usernames (e.g. Mycēs~lawikisource) I'm not secure that he response the notification. --Ks-M9 [disc.] 23:45, 23 November 2016 (UTC).

What does your local policy say? The global policy only allows for removal if the user is completely inactive for one year, which Antime is not, having recently edited. --MF-W 13:00, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
Our local policy say if a Check user don't use his cu rights for one year, his rights should be removed.--Abbas 21:14, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
It looks like the local policy only allows removal if the user has been inactive for a year as well. I need to translate that section though, so I could be wrong. – Ajraddatz (talk) 21:19, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
"أي مستخدم حاصل على صلاحيات التدقيق ولم يكن نشطاً لأكثر من سنة من الممكن نزع صلاحياته."
