Name change request

Good afternoon, @MacFan4000: & @Dmehus:.

I am requesting my Test Wiki username to be changed to Sav to closely reflect my personal name as Trayfel has no correlation to me.

Regards, Trayfel • ( Edits | Talk ) 13:52, 8 June 2022 (UTC).Reply[reply]

@MacFan4000: & @Dmehus: - Can this be done, please? Trayfel • ( Edits | Talk ) 19:06, 4 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
 Done MacFan4000 (Talk Contribs) 19:50, 4 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Restoration of my admin rights

Proposed amendment to Test Wiki:Bots

Proposal

I propose that this template be added to every Bot account that is created.
This would be in line with Wikipedia's bot shutoff template. Sav • ( Edits | Talk ) 20:00, 18 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Rationale:

  • Provides Administrators & 'crats with a simple way to block a malfunctioning bot account.

Support

Neutral/Abstain

Oppose

 Oppose While such templates can be helpful, I don't see a compelling need to enforce this as policy. — Chrs (talk) 04:01, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Counter-proposal

Stewardship request (LisafBia)

{{subst:Discussion top|1=A good-faith request by LisafBia for Stewardship; however, as several participants have noted, they are not sufficiently satisified as to LisafBia's reason for requesting Stewardship and, by extension of the same token, to there not being a sufficient need. Given that the only other participant, Matttest, who asked questions but has not yet expressed a view either way, is now CheckUser blocked for abusing multiple accounts in a duplicitous manner, this is unlikely to be successful. Dmehus (talk) 22:52, 31 July 2022 (UTC) Hi, there are few stewards on the wiki, I want to help the wiki, please vote! LisafBia (talk) 12:14, 27 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Support

Oppose

 Oppose You have not given a plausible reason for you wanting Stewardship. I believe, in my honest opinion, we do not need another Steward. Sav • ( Edits | Talk ) 15:04, 27 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Sav: There are few stewards on the wiki and I want to be able to help this wiki, I know the policies. LisafBia (talk) 17:34, 27 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@LisafBia: You have still not given reasoning for your request for stewardship. Saying things like "I want to be able to help this wiki, I know the policies" does not convince me you are suitable for Stewardship. I will not be changing my vote, you are not suitable for the rights in my opinion. Sav • ( Edits | Talk ) 06:26, 28 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

 Oppose No use case was presented to my question/comment, and this wiki is not in urgent need of more stewards, who have extremely advanced permissions. The ability to help out with the wiki is already granted to sysops and bureaucrats, while being test permissions, have broad authority to take non-test action. Justarandomamerican (talk) 17:31, 28 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Comment

  1.  Comment: and Question: Stewards have highly advanced permissions such as access to a user's IP and previously suppressed edits, along with the ability to suppress edits. Do you specifically need those highly advanced permissions for a particular use case? Or do you simply wish to help out? Justarandomamerican (talk) 23:35, 27 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
    @Justarandomamerican: I would prefer to use those powers only when needed. LisafBia (talk) 10:15, 28 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  2. In what situation will you use the CheckUser tools? What's the purpose of CheckUser? --Matttest (talk) 07:57, 29 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
  3. With the bureaucrat rights, you can already execute lpts of non-test actions. Which exact areas are you going to help out as a steward? --Matttest (talk) 07:57, 29 July 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]
