Hello, I am here to request extension in my Adminship which is going to expire soon. I have been Admin of Ks Wikipedia for a long time. Kindly, make the toolset permanent so that, I don't have to ask again and again. Rest assured I won't fail you. Thankyou. 511KeV (talk) 14:12, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

@VIGNERON: Yes, it will ask for it every time each time you login. It's required for all interface administrators to have all the time. Do you still want the interface administrator right? -- Amanda (she/her) 14:45, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Kadı@trwikivoyage

Status:    Done

I request sysop access according to the discussion above. Kind regards, Kadı Message 21:35, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

I'm concerned about granting this due to your blocks on trwiki which include an active harassment block and a former sockpuppetry block. Stewards need to take these concerns seriously when considering your request. I will discuss this with my colleagues and we will decide how to proceed from there. -- Amanda (she/her) 23:12, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
The trwikivoyage community has elected me. I answered all of the questions. If they don’t want me, they do not support my adminship. Regards, Kadı Message 03:57, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
@AmandaNP:, I understand your concerns, but at this point I have to show that this nomination had been annouced on the village pump of the Turkish Wikipedia on April 12 (10 days after the nomination, 5 days before its closure) and as far as I can see, all the comments are made after this announcement. In that case, active users of the Turkish Wikipedia saw this nomination and the ones who are interested in simply shared their opinions (5 in total). At this point, we should respect the community's decision, the community approved the nomination, and as a steward, you should give the permission that's given by a consensus. If you have concerns about the election process (I think it'd be a better option to expand the nomination, since there were only 5 contributers, but that's my personal opinion), I think the correct way would be to discuss the process, not the candidate. Nanahuatl (talk) 23:44, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

The Interlingue Wikipedia has voted to make Dorlota a sysop as well, which would give us two which is nice when one of us is distracted by real life (as I was a month or two ago and Dorlota had to deal with spam and whatnot which is where the idea to have more than one sysop came from).

The community has shown its unanimous support in previous Request for Interface Adminship but it was closed for 6 months only. I will provide you the link. There were more than 6 votes. Here.

Santali wikipedia is now more than 3 years old. Still many more tools and features are to be included and enabled, may be it's for individual or for whole people who are editing in our Wikipedia. I felt a need of an Interface Administrator for Santali Wikipeida, which for some reason is inactive (Ramjit). He might not be active and may not help right now. Hence, i decided to take this task. I have also attached a discussion in Santali Wikipedia(attached above) which was completed in 22nd April (started on 15th April), where everyone is aware of my rights and I'm sure everyone knows Interface administrator means. I know some programming language (Python and JS) and style sheet language (CSS) and many other languages too. I'm confident enough to deal with the above work and shall ask if in doubt. Therefore, I request for the Interface administrator access for Santali Wikipedia. Thanks Rocky 734 (talk) 00:42, 24 April 2022 (UTC)

Amanda, users in Belarus are at risk every day. Tomorrow, or maybe today, one of the admins can be taken into captivity. The threat to users will increase, two are already in captivity. Does everyone understand the situation? Maksim L. (talk) 07:46, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
@Maksim L.: We want to tell you that we understand your concerns well and take your situation seriously. Your admins are still temporarily, not as narrow as the oversight, but can revdel so that only admins can see the history or logs on bewiki. As long as your admins or someone who hijacked the admins account don't leak the logs, it can have a similar effect to the oversight. I'm sure this request will be handled soon, but I'd like to say that you may want to consider this option. --Sotiale (talk) 09:11, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
We do so. I'll repeat. Today I can be taken into captivity or another of the admins. It is not known when this will happen. It is necessary to make sure that admins cannot give out personal data of users, even if they "really want to". This will also protect admins, to some extent. Maksim L. (talk) 10:00, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
If you are concerned about your revdeled logs or page history being leaked due to concerns about your admins account hijacking, we can take action(oversight) directly on the history or logs of some pages in an emergency. In any case, I believe that a decision on this request will be made soon. I ask for your generous understanding. --Sotiale (talk) 09:20, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

This request is for removal of Bot / Admin status from Welsh Wikisource.

Reasoning:

  1. This bot has made no edits
  2. It is one of two Admins on cywikisource, taking the place of another editor who needs these rights to move / rename pages etc.
  3. Every editor in the discussion has agreed tthat this bot rights be deleted
  4. This bot does not conform to our policies (or en policies for that matter) in that the name of the administrator of the bot should be on its home / user page. No details provided!
  5. Please delete / remove asap. Thanks! Llywelyn2000 (talk) 08:12, 7 April 2022 (UTC)
Done. It is the account name used by the AbuseFilter extension. The system grants the account sysop permissions, although a request was made to stop that behaviour.
