Zylbath was elected as an admin by a local vote but the project does not have any bureaucrats of its own. Please promote Zylbath to admin status. Thanks ::Slomox:: >< 08:04, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

Done, to expire 3.2.2012 Matanya 08:06, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
Thanks. But why the expiration date? --::Slomox:: >< 20:58, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
Unless a project has a lot of active users and has admins and bureaucrats we tend to give adminship for various periods (1 month, 3 months, 6 and so on. With communities with active users we would give perm. Hope that helps and feel free to ask any questions. fr33kman 21:02, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
Okay, thanks for the clarification. Never heard about that rule before. I guess, I'll have to check in again in six months then. --::Slomox:: >< 07:24, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

Dear Daniel, I've fixed the link. As for my last edit date you are right, however please note that when I first visited the site it was at the verge of closure. I personally built up 97% of the site. Presently I keep watching the site. I hope one day new contributors will join the team. Until that day I think it will be good to supervise things there.

Bureaucrat access

I am fairly active on the developer wiki, test.wikipedia, and would like the bureaucrat right. Unfortunately, there are over 30 bureaucrats, only about 5 of which have more than 10 edits in the last 30 days. I would love to be better able to assist on the developer test wiki.  Hazard-SJ  ±  04:45, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

You need to open a local discussion. Ruslik 04:59, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

I might not be familiar with meta's policies, but I really doubt that's a valid reason for getting 'crat via meta, and bypassing local process. Gfoley4talk 05:12, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

The local policy says "sysop access may not be removed to MediaWiki developers due to inactivity", and both Jack Phoenix and Fran Rogers are developers. They probably don't particularly care, but please keep this sort of thing in mind when making (and acting upon) future requests. Emufarmers 01:25, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
I actually did not remove sysop access, I removed bureaucrat access. Sysop access was removed locally by Axpde. Ruslik 08:10, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
I've locally granted both of them the admin right back. -Barras 09:39, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Actually I wasn't aware that Jack and Fran are developers – is there an "official" list somewhere?
And as said before test.wikipedia.org is a testwiki, if some erstwhile admin still needs his flag I'll reset it! On the other hand I see no sense in having dozens of inactive admins/crats, any user who sees all those admins/crats will expect quick responses but won't get it ... a×pdeHello! 12:32, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

Purbo_T@ksh.wikipedia

Admin flag should be removed. This is a bot created by, and granted admin rights by, Purodha who has just been de-adminned. Dbach 15:17, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

  • Invalid request. There is no evidence that the bot did anything it was not supposed to do, and there is nothing on the bot in the article presented as "discussion" above. --Miss van der Roehe 15:46, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
  • Comment Comment I can confirm that there is no discussion about the bot, but if we take a look at the discussion below, the bot was misused against the community opinion. Such bot with sysop flag is more than questionable if the operator was desysoped. --WizardOfOz talk 15:59, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
True, we did not discuss the bot yet. But in fact, Purodha - as a real person - will continue to be an admin if his bot has sysop rights; so there is hardly any point in de-sysop'ing the "real" username and leave the bot with admin rights. Dbach 16:32, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
The bot was never used against community consensus, and I would never do so. The whole idea of misuse is bogus. It is only a false insinuation by Dbach aka ksh:User:Düüvelskääl, not the first one by the way. Makes it hard to assume good faith, but I keep trying. --Purodha Blissenbach 17:51, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Done I have read the discussions relating to this request and it is clear that the community has deadmined a member and that member is operating an admin bot. Clearly this means the person retains admin and this is clearly not the desire of the community. Whether or not further discussion should happen is strictly for the ksh community to decide, locally. Therefore, admin is removed, bot is left. fr33kman 03:56, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Vardion@miwikipedia

I received administrator and bureaucrat rights at the Māori Wikipedia back in 2004, mainly for the purposes of working with the interface. However, my activity there has been minimal, bordering on non-existent. Additionally, I was appointed (without my requesting it) by the unilateral judgement of another bureaucrat (who has since lost his status there anyway). I'm not aware of any specific policy on that wiki against inactive bureaucrats, but I would prefer not to keep either my bureaucrat or admin permissions if I'm not using them. (The notice at the top of this section says I should be "logged in to a global account". I hope that means "(if you have one)" — I don't, and if I created one right now, I'm told that my Māori Wikipedia account would become my "home wiki", even though I hardly use it. This is part of the reason I'd rather not just let my permissions on the Māori Wikipedia sit.) --Vardion 05:33, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

En.wiki has local bureaucrats that can remove sysop access. Try posting a request at en:Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard. Jafeluv 05:07, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
Just saying that nothing forbids us to remove sysop access on wikis with local crats able to do so if the user is requesting that here. A matter to discuss I think. -- Dferg 13:50, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
Agreed. If someone asks here, I think we can still remove it. That's one of our tasks, no matter if local people can do it. -Barras 14:12, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
Self-requested removals are of course uncontroversial and it doesn't really make much difference who flips the bit, except that the log entry is made on meta instead of the local page. However, we generally decline steward requests, even uncontroversial ones, if there are active local people available to perform the same task. That's why the bolded text at the top does say that this page is intended only for wikis which have no local procedure for the task. Jafeluv 15:30, 23 August 2011 (UTC)
Indeed one of the motivating factors in giving enwiki bureaurats the ability to remove administrator permissions was to move the logs onto the local side (see w:WP:DESYSOP/TECH, w:WP:DESYSOP/POL, previous discussion on subject). That doesn't necessarily translate into 'stewards should send people to local venue except in urgent or emergency situations' and Dferg is correct that there is nothing "forbidding" non-urgent removal on request, nor has there been any kind of request to stewards from the enwiki community asking them to refrain from doing so. That being said, processing non-urgent requests in two different locations means that people may still be required to check both local and meta rights logs when looking into removals that were carried out after 2011 August 11. –xeno 13:27, 24 August 2011 (UTC)

rohit rawat@hiwiktionary

Hi, I am a sysop on hiwikipedia and now I have started contributing on hiwiktionary. I applied for the post of admin on local wiki community page but probably because nobody is active on hiwiktionary my request has been pending for more than 5 months. But I have got support from four members for hiwiktionary and that can be seen here under the heading क्र ३. I am asking for sysop/admin rights because lots of changes need to be done on hiwiktionary and hiwikiquote like there is no Devanagari input facility, and texts on many buttons and labels is incorrect and so on and these changes are not possible without becoming sysop/admin. Looking at my contributions on hiwiktionary, hiwikipedia, and hiwikiquote I think I'm eligible for this post. Thanks. रोहित रावत 19:59, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
