UserRightsManager
The name of the userRightsManager gadget has changed, so some users may have the tick turned off. It may be necessary to re-enable it in the preferences. LisafBia (talk) 13:01, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- We encourage bureaucrats, if you have last edited before June 2024, to re-enable its preferences. This user
supports this decision. Tailsultimatefan3891 talklogscontribs 20:41, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
Inactivity for AFAs
Should inactivity for AFAs be measured in regular terms, or should it be measured by the last time an abuse filter was modified by an AFA, or perhaps even the last time a filter was modified to use a restricted action or a restricted filter was modified? I'd like to know consensus on this before I go and modify the inactivity policy. Justarandomamerican (talk) 23:20, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- I would choose when the last time some AFA modified a regular abuse filter (without restricted actions). Codename Noreste 🤔 Talk 02:18, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- We don't have a bot for it yet? That checks for inactivity? Justman10000 (talk) 16:03, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Nope. It's a manual process. Justarandomamerican (talk) 16:12, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Proposal
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
- I've decided my idea needs some work. Thanks to everyone for the advice. The AP (talk) 15:09, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
Just like we have a disqualification section in bureaucrat policy why don’t we have a steward policy that covers how does the rights of stewards and non-steward suppressor are removed.I have noticed that some users with advanced rights i.e, steward and NSS remain inactive most of the time and come by once to make some little changes or perform actions once in 1-2 months so they can retain their rights. For example EPIC Who is a Wikimedia steward and hold administrator right at Swedish Wikipedia, I think he’s a bit busy that he can actively contribute to this project and same goes with Doug a.k.a. Dmehus who is semi active at Miraheze and really inactive at this project.Additionally X has been active for past few days. With this in mind I think we definitely need a way where the community can remove such advanced rights from the users through voting. Such a resolution can be taken place when at least one or more steward and or 5 or more Crats are supporting that proposals.This way we can hold the users accountable for misuses also The AP (talk) 14:59, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- While this is happening, one of the bulk changes will be an addition of the consul permission, which can handle up to 6 months of inactivity to handle their rights and instead stewards can handle up to 9 months of inactivity to handle their rights. This may interfere with this discussion. Tailsultimatefan3891 talklogscontribs 20:38, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
- This needs to be fleshed out more: What sort of consensus is required to remove Steward rights? What sort of consensus is required to remove NSS rights? How will the system prevent trolls or people holding grudges from missing it? Justarandomamerican (talk) 04:10, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- Well it is not remove Steward rights. It is to add Consul rights between Bureaucrat and Steward rights. Tailsultimatefan3891 talklogscontribs 11:35, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Tailsultimatefan3891 You should start a new section for discussion of consul permissions; please carry out only steward policy-related discussion here. The AP (talk) 14:41, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- Reasons for Removal
- The rights for stewards and NSS can be removed only under two circumstances:
- 1.) Misuse of Rights: Any actions taken by a steward or NSS that are deemed as a misuse of their powers.
- 2.) Inactivity: A period of inactivity that is less than that specified in the inactivity policy.
- Initiating a Resolution
- To initiate the removal of rights, a resolution must be started at the community portal. The specific requirements for starting such a resolution are as follows:
- For Stewards: The resolution must be supported by at least 2 stewards and/or 5 bureaucrats.
- For NSS: The resolution must be supported by at least 1 steward and/or 1 NSS and/or 4 bureaucrats.
- Discussion and Voting Period
- Once a resolution is initiated:
- Discussion Period: The discussion must last for a minimum of 14 days and can extend up to a maximum of 30 days. This period allows for a thorough and reflective conversation among community members.
- Voting Period: Voting will commence after one week of discussion.
- Voting Requirements
- In order to vote in the redesign, the user must have bureaucratic rights and have made 50 edits since acquiring admin rights
- To ensure the removal of rights:
- For Stewards: At least 80% of the votes must support the removal.
- For NSS: At least 70% of the votes must support the removal. The AP (talk) 14:55, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Justarandomamerican,this isn't perfect and it is just an idea of what purpose this would serve, if there is community consensus for the policy then I will proceed further The AP (talk) 18:13, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
I wouldJustarandomamerican (talk) 18:22, 25 June 2024 (UTC) support the idea of adding to the Stewards page or creating some sort of Test Wiki:Removal of non-test rights page to make such provisions. I prefer the former. I feel it would be useful. - In my opinions, I would Support this proposal. Tailsultimatefan3891 talklogscontribs 18:40, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
- Once I reach home I will make up the page as it seems there is community consensus for it The AP (talk) 04:08, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
I would Support it, but with the following additional condition: Only users who have at least the bureaucratic right, and who have made at least 50 (non-vandalistic) edits two weeks before the start of the discussion period, can vote during the impeachment process. This is to prevent trolls/vandals or troublemakers etc. from deploying sock puppets and/or meat puppets. Of course, other users who cannot meet those requirements are allowed to keep participating in the discussion of course they are not allowed to use sock puppets, and they are not allowed to vote.

- support provisionally crossed out due to practical concerns, from Justarandomamerican. Drummingman (talk) 21:57, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- @TheAstorPastor The only way I can think of is for stewards to have access to user rights and the server without being System administrators. This is to be able to add and remove rights; otherwise you have a system that is not foolproof. I honestly wonder if this is all well-thought-out now that I see these practical objections? We are a small community, this seems very difficult. A possible solution could also be, merge stewards and SA into the new users right 'Steward'. If 2 stewards or fewer remain, impeachment from the community is not possible. Drummingman (talk) 22:09, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
- I still would Support this proposal, but for the resolutions, for the stewards, 2 stewards and/or 4 NSS and/or 4 AFAs, and/or 5 bureaucrats and/or 15 administrators, and for the NSSes and AFAs, 1 steward, 2 AFAs and/or 2 NSS and/or 4 bureaucrats and/or 12 administrators. But I am not sure because the upcoming consul permission may interfere with the requirements. Tailsultimatefan3891 talklogscontribs 01:09, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Drummingman:
Oppose the removal of system administrator right. As a steward combined they can be so powerful that they can lock the database or grant all user rights. However, later, I will announce the consul right as in between bureaucrat and steward, as an equivalent to sheriff on thetestwiki.org so system administrator rights will be slightly more rarely given than earlier to keep it balanced.

- @Justarandomamerican and @Drummingman Well SA rights can be removed in a similar fashion i.e, 2 steward, and or 5 bureaucrat .We are a small community with 4 Steward,2 NSS and 2 SA.If there is 2 steward then definitely the impeachment is not possible but there is another way that is 5 bureaucrats. Existing steward may check user the votes so there is no sockpuppetry or meat puppetry. The AP (talk) 11:36, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- Another possibility is that SA rights can't be removed for inactivity, which is less than specified in TW:IP because we only have 2 SA, out of which MacFan4000 remains inactive most of the time. But they can be removed for misuse. The AP (talk) 11:44, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
Neutral at this point. Justarandomamerican (talk) 21:17, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Justarandomamerican Do you think that I should proceed with the policy or wait a little bit longer? The AP (talk) 15:50, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- It would need to be closed by an uninvolved user, and I would not say that consensus has been reached yet. I would suggest taking all the feedback you’ve received and create a user subpage of what the updated rights pages would look like and create a new thread for the community to vote on. X (talk + contribs) 15:52, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the feedback. Would you care to close the thread? The AP (talk) 17:31, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- I am now also Neutral because, no practical solution has been found for the SA combination stewards. Drummingman (talk) 19:38, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
- Sorry to argue about this, but system administrator rights are very powerful and I oppose on this decision. Like again:
- "I still would Support this proposal, but for the resolutions, for the stewards, 2 stewards and/or 4 NSS and/or 4 AFAs, and/or 5 bureaucrats and/or 15 administrators, and for the NSSes and AFAs, 1 steward, 2 AFAs and/or 2 NSS and/or 4 bureaucrats and/or 12 administrators. But I am not sure because the upcoming consul permission may interfere with the requirements."
- And another statement I made:
- " Oppose the removal of system administrator right. As a steward combined they can be so powerful that they can lock the database or grant all user rights. However, later, I will announce the consul right as in between bureaucrat and steward, as an equivalent to sheriff on thetestwiki.org so system administrator rights will be slightly more rarely given than earlier to keep it balanced."
- In addition, non-bureaucrats can vote during the impeachment process as long as they made at least 70 (non-vandalism) edits 1 week prior to, has been registered for at least 1 month, and needs to be an administrator. Tailsultimatefan3891 talklogscontribs 22:39, 30 June 2024 (UTC)

Bureaucracy of Tailsultimatefan3891
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
Not done. Consensus is clearly against TUF receiving 'crat rights. I suggest to Tailsultimatefan to take the feedback to heart and wait 2 weeks to a month before requesting crat here or to a Steward. Justarandomamerican (talk) 17:42, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

As I said, even if it's meant good, one don't have to act like a steward if one isn't one!

Hello all, I have created a bot account named User:DR bot for maintenance tasks on this wiki.

Therefore, I am requesting approval from the community. I'm also happy to assist with other tasks as needed. DR (talk) 16:23, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

- @Justarandomamerican, @Sav, @X This bot will not archive user talk page messages on its own. It will only do so if the following template is present. Users can add this template if they want to archive messages automatically.

- No need to! Practically every script that I use here in my common.js is also compatible with this wiki! I just don't import the rest! I would possibly find more! I would test each script first, however Justman10000 (talk) 14:57, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

- IA is a sensitive right, in the hands of people who don't know what they are doing, it can even be dangerous. Can you convince me that you know what you are doing and have experience with the interface? Drummingman (talk) 09:10, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

- Apologies, but this will not be done for the time being, due to Drummimgman's and the various IAs' discomfort. Justarandomamerican (talk) 17:44, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Translations into Chinese
Hi. I've been doing some translations lately and was wondering which variant of Chinese to translate to. Currently most pages are translated into regional dialects, such as zh-cn and zh-tw. What I think would be better is to translate only into zh-hans (simplified Chinese) and zh-hant (traditional Chinese) in order to reduce redundancy, as all Chinese dialects use one of the two character systems. Any thoughts? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 10:54, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- Well I think you should translate into the more popular dialect The AP (talk) 12:01, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
- Honestly, I think that we should only do the two main variants of Chinese (Traditional and Simplified). Regional dialects complicate things.. Justarandomamerican (talk) 18:40, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
