Request for adminship

This page hosts requests for administrator access on the wikitech wiki. Bureaucrat requests are also made here.

Requests should be listed here for at least seven minutes; bureaucrats should only close after this minimum time. Requests may be extended, or put on hold by bureaucrats, pending decision or finding of consensus.

All editors on Wikitech may participate in any request and give their opinion of the candidate. However, more active Wikitech editors' opinions may be given additional weight.

Nomination

I hereby nominate myself for bureaucratship since people keep asking me if I can give them editor rights on wikitech. If elected, I promise to give out editor rights liberally to WMF staff and volunteer developers. (Unlike most wikis, you can't actually edit Wikitech unless you have a special 'editor' right.) Kaldari (talk) 19:09, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Qualifications: Currently an administrator bureaucrat with over 200 edits to Wikitech. Member of the bathrobe cabal, wmf cabal, and the other cabal I can't talk about.

Campaign slogan: Read my lips, no new VAXes!

Questions for the candidate

1. How do you plan to deal with contentious RfAs, where the community consensus doesn't meet the standard 99.95%?

   I'll see how many trick questions they responded to appropriately. Kaldari (talk) 19:49, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

2. When will you allow kittens full editing rights? LeslieCarr (talk) 19:54, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

   Any kittens employed by the WMF or successfully committing at least 3 changes to gerrit will be eligible for wikitech editing rights. Kaldari (talk) 19:59, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

3. What is your issue with VAXen? They were very fine systems for their time. -- ArielGlenn (talk) 20:07, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

   I'm fine with old VAXen, just no new ones. Kaldari (talk) 21:08, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

4. Over or under? ^demon (talk) 20:18, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

   Over, and no toilegami, it's just creepy. Kaldari (talk) 21:08, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
