Administrator access

Omarov M.@av.wikipedia

At the moment, Avar Wikipedia does not have an active administrator, so there are some problems. In particular problems of a technical nature. There are also issues related to restricting access to editing some templates. Therefore, please provide the administrator status. I am familiar with the administrator rights and General rules.

Synoman Barris@sw.wiktionary

Requesting admin rights on this wiki. Recently I and another user realised that there were some language in accuracies on the Wiki. These bad pages would need to be deleted. I also want to translate some pages in the MediaWiki namespace . There has been no active admin or crate or some time now. I have also invited some university students to help me in cleaning up the Wiki and these rights would be useful to save the Wiki.Thanks --Synoman Barris (talk) 22:35, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Comment Comment Translating MediaWiki in the MediaWiki namespace is not a good idea: https://translatewiki.net is the proper way how to translate MediaWiki. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 12:20, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
I concur with what Martin has said, sometimes a wiki already has some local translations that actually have to be deleted to use the ones from Translatewiki but that is not the case here. As to the rest of the things I do not see issues, the request is  On hold until October 8 for the vote to last for 1 week. --Base (talk) 12:57, 2 October 2020 (UTC)
Thanks Base and Martin Urbanec I never really knew translation wiki existed and the vote also seems to be over. Since there are no crats there, I would appreciate it if one of you closed the discussion. Cheers --Synoman Barris (talk) 14:15, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Done Granted for 3 months to expire on 2021-01-10. . Synoman Barris, given that you are extremely new to the project and the concerns voiced about your command of the language, I have to go with the standard 3 months we normally give for new temporary sysops (for the context, the user has asked me for 6 months on my talk page). About a week before the end date you will have to run another vote to prolong your adminship. Feel free to ask any questions, and as mentioned, for interface translations please use translatewiki.net instead, please be aware that the translations made there will appear on your wiki with a lag of a couple of days though. --Base (talk) 19:56, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Абдырашит Сатылганов@ky.wikipedia

Hello, my term of office as an administrator has expired, I tried very hard to fight against vandalism, at the moment this section needs an administrator. Абдырашит Сатылганов (talk) 17:44, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

As a side note, there seems to be a main namespace page ky:Уикипедия:Администратор макамына арыз берүү which duplicates ky:Wikipedia:Администраторду шайлоо and should be merged with it. --Base (talk) 19:10, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

And there is also another mainspace ky:Requests for adminship… Note that both are counted as articles. --Base (talk) 19:20, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Абдырашит Сатылганов, could you confirm that the page Администраторду шайлоо is known to the community? Per above mess I see that ky:Wikipedia:Администраторлор does not link to it, and as to Wikipedia:Жамаат порталы, it is only linked there in some old thread. I see that you did notify some of the community members on their talk pages though. --Base (talk) 19:27, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

Yes ky:Wikipedia:Администраторду шайлоо , this page is active, but a large number of similar pages are associated with different opinions of users and administrators. We still don't have a single rule. Over the past 2 years, the number of active users has dropped sharply, and now there are practically none.

Done Granted for 6 months to expire on 2021-04-14. Абдырашит Сатылганов, it seems that this is indeed the page your previous adminship went through, also it is the most watched one, so I am accepting this as the right place. Sometimes people create nominations no one but the people they have told know about, so I wanted to make sure that this is not the case here. It would be very nice if you could resolve this mess, so that there is only one requests for adminship page. Please keep in mind though that "Уикипедия" is currently not a namespace name in Kyrgyz Wikipedia, so pages starting with such prefix, or with no prefix like ky:Requests for adminship, are technically considered regular articles just like ky:Антарктида is. It is possible to have "Уикипедия" instead of" Wikipedia", for this you have to follow the procedure described at MyLanguage/Requesting wiki configuration changes. Also, I have to kindly ask you to read wmf:Resolution:Licensing Policy. I see that you have files like ky:Файл:Курманжан Датка тасмасы.jpeg without a free use rationale and complete description. You do have ky:Уикипедия: ак ниет пайдалануу критерийлери (again, currently it is counted as an article), but I cannot find an equivalent of en:Template:Non-free use rationale, which should be used for such files. Feel free to ask any questions related to adminship, можно также на русском :) --Base (talk) 22:14, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay. I just invested an hour trying to get this to work, but I couldn't get it to work (I think) due to a very complex process that isn't very simple/intuitive to do on a little iPhone. The six number code changes every 30 seconds and that's too fast for to get to punch it in + write my username in Hebrew + write in my password on a little phone... every time this process fails the whole QR code needs to be redone for me to try again (Do I really need to print it out each time to be able to scan it?). What should I do now? ויקיג'אנקי (talk) 22:40, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
ויקיג'אנקי, it is a good idea to print out the QR code and scratch codes, but only as means not to lose them and only if you can ensure that they are stored somewhere where no one can access them. Normally people use a Time-based One-Time Password generator, Google Authentificator is one of them, there are many others made as apps, browser plugins or even online-services (knowledgable in programming people can also write their own generators). The generator stores the QR code and constantly outputs the 6 digit codes used for authentification, so you don't need to scan the QR code all the time. If the generator you have used does not store it, try another (the Google's one definitely does). Also the token is time-based it is important to make sure that your device you have generator on time is synchronised. When logging in, you input your username and password first. Only after those are verified to be correct you are asked for the code. It is at this point that you go to your generator and copy the token from it. Wait until it refreshes to have a bit more time, also while it refreshes every 30 seconds there is a little bit more time to input it, as some slack for time difference is given. Does this instruction make it clearer for you? --Base (talk) 21:52, 14 October 2020 (UTC)
Not done The user still does not have 2FA enabled, despite having about three weeks to fix that. Feel free to re-fill once this is fixed. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 19:59, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

WikiBayer@barWiki

The local Bureaucrat is inactive, since over a half year. See bar:Spezial:Beiträge/Joe_Watzmo bar:Wikipedia:Moanungsbuida/Bürokratenwoi WikiBayer local guideline bar:Wikipedia:Woiregln (4+ user with voting permission (50 edits at the last 12 Months) and a 2/3 majority)--𝐖𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐁𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 👤💬 12:36, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

Not done @WikiBayer: According to steward's guideline, a wiki community needs to have at least six permanent admins (your community has exactly six), and there needs to be at least 15 votes. In addition to that, a community needs to be sufficiently large to warrant a bureaucrat, judging by number of usages of such permission. Based on bar.wikipedia logs, I do not think the community meets that criteria outlined in the guidelines. As such, I'm closing this request as not done.
I recommend the community to adapt a local inactivity policy (or wait for AAR to remove his/her bureaucrat permission). Once that happens, the bureaucrat affairs would be handled by stewards. In the meantime, if there is any action requiring bureaucrat permissions, you can request it from the stewards, pointing out to the inactivity.
Best, --Martin Urbanec (talk) 13:50, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
@Martin Urbanec Quote of Steward guideline: " These guidelines do not alter or override any local policies or guidelines approved by active wikis. The guidelines are a statement of how stewards wish to exercise their discretion. See also previous discussions in 2010 and 2017." We decided now in the election and a preliminary discussion. And have the guidelines since 2014--𝐖𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐁𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫 👤💬
The guidelines explains how stewards assess consensus to appoint new administrators/bureaucrats/importers. As a steward asked to evaluate a local discussion, I do not see sufficient consensus to appoint a bureaucrat. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 14:35, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

@DannyS712: The removal policy was approved in 2009 as per Meta talk:Administrators/confirm#Tired of this. Since then in every confirmation round users have been removed from sysop and advanced permissions should they fail to make the required edits, or sign after a week from being notified (including bureaucrat and other advanced permissions). There are precedents such as Mardetanha's CheckUser and Oversighter permissions being removed as per Meta:Administrators/Removal/October 2013, or Barras' CU and OS permissions being removed as well per Meta:Administrators/Removal/October_2017 and Courcelles' OS permissions as well in 2018. Note that since the start of the modern confirmation process in 2009 (cfr. Meta:Administrators/Removal/April 2009) it clearly states that "Adminship (and other rights) removed without notice" and we've been applying the policy this way since its inception.

Already done The user rights were already revoked by policy, hence, they lost their CU status already, and there is nothing to do. --Martin Urbanec (talk) 12:02, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
Policy-wise the CU rights were suspended not revoked per se, but this is a revocation of their permissions, therefore hrwiki will need to elect 2 checkuser. — regards, Revi 16:19, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
Can we log that this is now a revocation and not a suspension? Some time later memory can fail. Doing a dummy right change and state that these are being now removed per community discussion won't hurt IMHO. —MarcoAurelio (talk) 18:37, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
The practice used to be that CU/OS who were removed under the 2 CU rule were commented out in the respective lists - but I agree this should be better documented somewhere. For example at CheckUser policy/Users with CheckUser access some of the commented out "suspended" users should be considered revoked since they have now also been inactive for 1 year and would fail those parts of the CU policy. --Rschen7754 19:00, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Please remove my sysop rights and interface-admins rights, due suspicion regards to this user group and also personal request. minhhuy (talk) 08:16, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

 On hold for 1 day, standard for resignation of advanced permissions. @Trần Nguyễn Minh Huy: You can withdraw this request at any time within 24 hours. --Sotiale (talk) 08:34, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
This would be a big lost to the community. I suppose Minh Huy have spent his thoughts over and the decision wasn't made hastily under the recent events. In any case, I request an extended delay until things are clearer. Buiquangtu (talk) 09:51, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
We usually do not grant any extension beyond the standard 24 hour wait. — regards, Revi 10:46, 19 October 2020 (UTC)

Millennium bug@ptwiki

Since user resigned as sysop, his checkuser tool must be removed immediately, per policy: pt:Wikipédia:CheckUser/Candidaturas#Regras ("Somente administradores podem obter o estatuto de verificador de contas"). Érico (talk) 18:54, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

I ask stewards to remove the flag immediately. The user is now blocked for acting like a vandal. His access to this tool puts us at a high risk. Érico (talk) 19:17, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

Done CU status revoked. Note blocking an user is enough for restricting him/her from any actions requiring elevated permissions, including checking users, or even viewing the CU log. Sincerely, --Martin Urbanec (talk) 19:21, 23 October 2020 (UTC)

Miscellaneous requests

I am experience user of wikimedia project last 12 years. Now a days I am wprking in Wikisource in Indic languages. I have a good knowledge of Admin an interface admin. I need some testing and iplementation of my developments and create video. Jayantanth (talk) 07:38, 27 October 2020 (UTC)

Not done. Most of the stewards here don't have steward access on the beta cluster, as it is a separate platform used by developers to test their code. Please request it on Phab, using the project beta-cluster-infrastructure. —Thanks for the fish! talkcontribs 14:32, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
@Jayantanth: for the future, as Tks4Fish noted please make such requests using phabricator. That being said, since you are trusted with the rights on bnwikisource on prod wikis, I'm sure you can be trusted with the rights on the beta cluster, and I have granted you admin and interface-admin for 3 months on the beta enwikisource.
