===[[User:Linkthewindow|Linkthewindow]]===
''There are no candidates at this time.''
I've been thinking of doing this for a while now as I find Link to be a very useful and helpful member of the community who would make a good sysop. He's been around since before the 26th of July last year (History Purge wiped anything before that) and he's made somewhere in the region of 5-6000 edits. He's active in the administration sections regularly and already performs a lot of maintenance tasks. Either way, I think he would be a good sysop and this nomination has been a long time coming. -- {{User:Krazy_Monkey/sig}} 23:23, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
:Just noting that I've seen this. I'll make up my mind later <tt>:)</tt>. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 23:54, 13 February 2009 (UTC)


Okay then, I've decided I'll do this, assuming the community trusts me. I'm really quite bad at selling myself, but I encourage you to look at my [[Special:Contributions/Linkthewindow|contributions]], my [[User_talk:Linkthewindow|talk page]] and it's [[User_talk:Linkthewindow/Archive|archive]], as well as some of the administration archives (especially [[A/MR|move requests]] and [[A/SD|speedy deletions]].)

''There are no candidates at this time.''


I'll respond to any questions asked, so fire away. I'm probably what you would describe as a [[wikipedia:Wikipedia:GNOME|wikignome]], making lots of small edits that people don't really notice (such as categorization, fixing template calls, and the like.)

*:'''Against''' - You're not cut out for one of the most important jobs a sysop has, dealing with A/VB cases. I still think you would do a good job in other areas, but the shortcomings there are troubling. We can't have a wishy-washy sysop who can't bring himself to rule, and I also don't like your opinions on Hagnat's soft warning to that user. Personal threats of that manner can't just be shoved off like other things would.

**'''Questions for candidate''': How would you rule in the past three misconduct cases that have been brought? What do you think are the problems with [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=User_talk%3AJakezing&diff=1369385&oldid=1369370 this edit]? What would you do to rectify this if you became a sysop? You mention below in response to another user your possible incompatibility to be a sysop due to your habit of avoid drama, why have you not withdrawn this bid and allowed time to demonstrate to the community your ability to cope with drama if the need arises? -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 02:28, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
***Firstly-Hagant's edit. There's no policy against threatening death (which is a personal attack, and the [[UDWiki:Administration/Policy_Discussion/Civility|civility]] policy failed (more like fell flat on it's face.) That said though, death threats are ''extreme'' poor form and should be discouraged. If that was what Hagant was planning to do with his "pre-warning"-then good. However, saying that the user would get a perma next time is an empty threat, as it isn't against any policy (although, personal attacks of that level should be discouraged.)
::I'll assume that this isn't including the recent SLR one? Anyway:
::1. [[A/M#Boxy|Boxy]] - ''Leaning Misconduct'', but I would have had to have thought about it quite a bit first. Pretty much what Nubis said in the case - the sigs where pretty much the same. ''However'', SLR has a [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=User%3ASexylegsread%2Fsig&diff=1372677&oldid=1372560 history] of doing stuff like that (pushing the boundaries of policy,) while SA didn't. It's not a clear-cut case.
::2. [[UDWiki:Administration/Misconduct/Archive/Hagnat/2009|Hagnat]] - Probably would have abstained (as I said below,) but ''leaning'' misconduct. When Hagnat banned him (the first time,) SLR wasn't given the full week, which he should have been given (according to policy, Boxy's new one institutes a much better rule over this, imo.) ''However'', it's hard to see SLR's actions in good faith, especially after his comments on the talk page, especially this quote:
:::{{Quote|Sexylegsread|But, I don't think it does break policy. It isn't lost in a barrage of links, theres only six links, and its repeated a few times. 1/6th of my sig, as stated. I won't change it back to that, '''considering you are all fags who cant handle anyone who finds a policy loophole and exploits it''', but yeah, it doesn't break the policy, thus isn't vandalism.}}
::<sub>[[UDWiki_talk:Administration/Vandal_Banning#Sexylegsread|Source]], emphasis mine</sub>
::In short, Hagnat acted early with his ban, but in light of SLR's comments on the talk page, it's hard to see his comments (and hence, actions,) in a good light (as exploiting a policy loophole is ''never'' in good faith.
::3. [[UDWiki:Administration/Misconduct/Archive/Karek/2009|Karek]] - ''Not Misconduct'' as the page was a deletion workaround. It was deleted in the first place (crit 7,) by Thad after a [[UDWiki:Administration/Deletions/Archive/Aug_2008#Haliman_is_a_Fraud|community outcry]] over it's existence. Admittedly, the situation was different at the time of the second vote (especially regarding the UBCS page,) it's still a workaround.
::Finally, I plan on focusing on the more janitorial/maintenance aspects of sysoping (which can probably be inferred by my current wiki habits,) and taking it slow on A/VB and A/M for the first month or so. Most of the community doesn't seem to have an issue with that.
::Thank you for your time. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 03:43, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
***Thank you for taking the time to respond Link. In response to your answers, Hagnat should have been immediately been demoted for threatening a user with an unwarranted ban and using his status as a sysop as an intended badge of authority, I'd have taken it to Misconduct but that place is no longer ruled on a case basis but by rather who brings the case. If any of our ''trusted users'' actually cared for proper procedure they'd be going over there and apologising for Hagnat's behaviour. I won't hold my breath though.... The Boxy and Karek cases were clearly not misconduct, the Boxy case resulting from a faulty perception caused by Hagnat's actions. The Hagnat case was clearly misconduct and your indication of an unwillingness to involve yourself seals this for me. I am unconvinced that there is a great enough volume of work on the admin pages to warrant token sysops for janitorial duties, placing useful contributors in positions of prominence where they are subject to stress was shown to be an error after the Gnome fiasco. Although you work hard on this wiki, I am not convinced that you require the extra buttons to increase your effectiveness, I am therefore forced to vote '''Against''' promoting you on this bid. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 00:36, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
:::If you are deciding the SLR case based on his history and comment you are acting like a moderator not sysop, fyi. If Iscariot is actually against someone exploiting loopholes then ban the account because it has been hi-jacked. --{{User:Nubis/sig}} 15:10, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
::::It's odd isn't it? If I'd have made snide remarks in response to someone else's vote then I'd be escalated for shitting up the admin pages. Double standards are quite peculiar aren't they? -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 00:36, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

*:ooops Wrong answer. Link, the Edit that Iscariot pointed to was as a result of the user making real world threats against the safety of another user. What some folks are failing to remember is that Violations of the T.O.U. are AUTOMATICALLY considered banable... and this dates from Waaaaay back. There does not have to be a policy in place as this is a directive from "[[User:Kevan|On High]]" dating from late 2005 early 2006. There is no policy because there doesn't have to be one.'''Against''' for now.

**It wasn't an easy one. With the comments that SLR made on the [[UDWiki_talk:Administration/Vandal_Banning#Sexylegsread|VB talk page]] it was clear that it was really just annoying trolling, but Hagnat banned him ''before'' the comments where made, making it clear trolling. His sig wasn't breaking any pages (with the exception of Karek's,) but he was ''disrupting the wiki to make a point''.

*'''Against''' - Because of your reply to SA. If you weren't expected to deal with A/VB as a sysop I could support you, but A/VB is very important and sadly busy. If you can't make a decision one way or another on a case you won't make it.  The point of that question is do you decide based on the policy or based on the user and not deciding either way is the only completely wrong answer.--{{User:Nubis/sig}} 22:27, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
**Yeah, point taken. I tend to avoid drama, for better or worse. I know that there is a heck of a lot of drama inherent in being a sysop, and admittedly, it would be something I would have to learn to cope with, although not all our sysops spew drama at their ever step.

*<s>'''Abstain'''</s> - Your answer to Iscariot's question made me stop... Last I recalled, we have a zero tolerance policy towards threatening someone's physical, real-world safety. That has nothing to do with "civility" -- it's about breaking the law.... IMO what was wrong with that edit was that Hagnat totally ignored a very clear policy and gave a "soft warning" to someone who's been around the wiki a loooong time now. In so doing he basically made up his own version of the policy as he went along -- as per usual. I don't think you'd do that sort of thing intentionally, Link, but I'm a little concerned about that answer.

Because as a sysop you kind of ''have'' to get get your hands dirty in the drama to a degree, make some hard decisions re: A/VB and Misconduct, etc. As others have said, you seem reluctant to do so, and that's rather a significant weakness IMO. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 17:25, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
*'''vouch''' level headed and knows what he is doing. I lean towards Wans opinion where A/VB etc... is concerned but am sure you would not shy away when you have been given responsibility to be active there!--[[User:Honestmistake|Honestmistake]] 00:07, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
*'''Against''' - I have done a lot of lurking lately and I can tell you that I don't think he really does anything that requires the sysop badge. Also, if he wants to abstain on administration issues then what is the point anyway?--[[User:Disco Inferno|Disco Inferno]] 07:56, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
*'''Against''' -- The position requires impartiality, and you aren't too good at that. Maybe sometime in the future, but not right now. --[[User:Captain Rickety|Captain Rickety]] 21:54, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

===User:Nubis===
I don't want to steal Karek's thunder, but I think he and the others have a point that sysops shouldn't be afraid of the community opinion. If they are then they probably aren't doing their job correctly. I'm one of the longest standing sysops and it's probably time I put myself up for a review. (to be honest, the majority of the [[User:Nubis/WikiMe|work]] I do doesn't require Sysop powers) but hopefully I have shown that I can be reasonable and fair in A/VB/M matters. 
 
Besides, if Karek steps down this place may fall into chaos and I don't want to see that. So, again, following his wise lead, I'm submitting a re-promotion bid.
 
I don't really know what else to say, but consider it open season on any complaints/issues and I will address them. --{{User:Nubis/sig}} 03:35, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 
*'''Vouch''' --[[User:Cyberbob240|Cyberbob]] 03:45, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
*'''Against''' - For following Karek's retarded example. If anyone else had put up a case on administration in which a result either way would not change the current status, like putting a deleted page up for deletion or reporting a perma banned user they'd have been escalated for shitting up the admin pages. Apparently not here though with one rule for sysops and one for ever fucker else. If you want to be 're-promoted' you have to be demoted first, basic logic and English. Hagnat may have pulled emo-validate-my-existence-by-saying-nice-things-about-me shit in the past but that doesn't change the basic premise that this is crapping up an admin page (whilst a user who is actually up for promotion has a bid in progress no less) and you should all know better. I'd remove both of these on basic principle that you can't be promoted but we all know you'd use excuse to escalate me in the fair and impartial way you do. If you really want the community's opinion, go submit a demotion request and then go for re-promotion properly. And why are you 'Under Community Discussion' when you haven't received three vouches yet? One rule for sysops.... -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 03:48, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
*:I think you are missing the point that this could very well change my status.
*:I did, however, put it under the wrong heading because I was posting on my way out the door and worried more about getting the news item right than the placement of this. Sorry. That was an accident. I would move this to the right place, but it has enough to be here now, so that would be pointless. <s>(Actually, I forgot AHLG wasn't a sysop anymore - going to move it. - now) </s> I see SA posted. It can be here now.
*:Mostly this is about giving the users a place where they are expected to vent any and all concerns about a user. A place where (unlike a talk page) I don't have control of the content and where it is public enough that even casual users can respond. I would think that you of all people would welcome this IF the sysops doing it actually agreed to abide by the communities opinion at the end. --{{User:Nubis/sig}} 13:58, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
*::Nubis is correct, even if it was triggered by karek's move, it's still a brave move to put yourself up for reevaluation no matter what the circumstances are. Nubis is showing a trust in the community by putting himself in such a position. And Iscariot, stop nitpicking. The discussion has been accepted by the community on both reevaluations, so stop nitpicking and actually say what you think of the abilities of both Sysops, rather then nitpicking on something that doesn't matter.--{{User:Drawde/Sig}} 10:57, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
*No offense, but you sometimes come across as 'biased', although I'll leave it is an assumption since this is the internet and there are no MIND-READING DEVICES. Other than that ''meh'', I don't have any real problems with you, except you're a little odd sometimes... I think you have a good balance on the 'ignore the rules', ie, not going overtop with it.

===User:Karek===
I was going to wait until the other bid was finished to do this but have decided it's gonna happen now instead.
 
I have been a sysop for a while now, there has been much drama relating to some of my actions a lot of various background work done. We've finally reached a point where the majority of the sysop team is actually active and doing stuff, I hoped we had reached a point where the sysops understood that they actually do have some control of the user base and should act accordingly <small>(In a manner conducive to the administrative nature of the position)</small> but I'll leave that to everyone else to decide, although we certainly are closer than we were when I was promoted.
 
I'm putting myself up here as opposed to simply demotion, because I feel that it would be improper for me to leave without at lest giving the community at least one final chance at assessing my treatment and actions as a sysop. Yes, this is a re-promotion bid, It's also probably not as good as it could be wording and information wise I've always sucked at these things. Have at thee.--<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 16:45, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

This page is for users to request System Operator status. The act of user promotion is restricted to those with bureaucrat status, and as such users will need to request user promotion here. System Operators and Bureaucrats cannot assign promotions unless the request has gone through this page.

Guidelines for System Operator Requests

Users who wish to request System Operator status (and users who wish to nominate other users for System Operator status) should note that before they can be considered the following guidelines should be met by the candidate:

  • Significant time within the community.
We define this as at least 6 months since the candidate's first edit.
Note: looking in a User's User contributions might give false results for this criterion, as the edit history is periodically purged on this wiki.
  • Significant activity within the community.
We define this as at least 250 edits in the past six months under the candidate's name.
Note: looking in a User's User contributions might give false results for this criterion, as the edit history is periodically purged on this wiki.
  • Prior interest in maintaining the community.
We define this as clear evidence that the candidate is already performing maintenance tasks and taking leadership roles on the wiki.
  • Desire to become a System Operator.
We define this simply as indicating in the candidate's request their desire for the position (Note that if a person is nominated by another user, the candidate in question should note their acceptance of the nomination).

If a user is highly exemplary in one criterion, a certain amount of leeway may be given with the other criteria.

Once the candidate satisfies these guidelines, the user is then subject to a community discussion. All users are asked to comment on the candidate in question, ask questions of the candidate, and discuss the candidate's suitability for becoming a System Operator. This is not a vote. It is instead merely a request for comments from the wiki community. This will continue for two weeks to allow all users an opportunity to voice their opinion regarding a candidate's qualifications for promotion. After two weeks, the Bureaucrats are responsible for announcing their decision within a reasonably short period of time. Users may continue to add their thoughts until the Bureaucrats announce their decision. The current amount of System Operators running should not influence your decisions when voicing your opinion.

Once the two weeks are up, the Bureaucrats will review the community discussion and make a decision based upon it. The user will be notified of the status of their request, and will be promoted should it appear that the community is willing to accept them as a System Operator.

Example Application

Example User

I've been around 3 months, and I've made to date 550 edits. As you can see [link here] and [link here], I've been in the leadership role attempting to create a new format for this page. I'd very much like to become a System Operator.

  • Vouch - I am willing to vouch for this user. -- Voucher 03:41, 23 Jan 2006 (GMT)
  • Against - Example User, I haven't seen any evidence of your work on the wiki. --Some user 19:01, 25 July 2006 (BST)
  • Vouch - Example User is the most active guy here. --Another user 19:01, 25 July 2006 (BST)
  • Abstain - I'm just not sure, but I don't want to say why for some reason. --Some other user 19:01, 25 July 2006 (BST)
  • Question - I just want to know what you think about this subject? --Yet another user 21:26, 4 April 2013 (BST)
