Boy, this is gonna look bad.

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


Anyways, I've been thinking for a while now. I have interest in becoming a sysop. First off, my VB record is clean. No vandalism for me. Second, I try to keep a level head (and, in most situations, succeed). This is my first promotion bid.
==Recent Bids==


I am willing, wanting, and able to spend my time trying to improve this community. I'm here to keep things running smoothly, clean up via janitor work, and help with general work. A/MR, A/VB, A/D and A/SD will be bookmarked. Promise :).

*[[UDWiki:Administration/Sysop Archives/Hagnat/2019-08-14 Promotion|Archived as Unsuccessful]].


I have [[Special:Contributions/Haliman111|~2000]] recorded edits, have been around since early August of 08',  founded [[TSR]] (which has been halted lately because of internet problems. I plan to fix that), and am trusted (and, I'll admit, distrusted) by many.

Just so you know, this was planned, I didn't jump on Pestolence's bandwagon. I would like to put myself, once again, up for promotion.
 
My last promotion candidacy was two months ago. I encourage you to read it [[UDWiki:Administration/Promotions/DanceDanceRevolution|here]].
 
Essentially, I come with the same message since my last bid. I've been here two years, and have made [[Special:Contributions/DanceDanceRevolution|3800+]] edits in the last two months alone, and would like to be a sysop in order to help the community as best I can, through maintenaince and janitorial work, naturally. Other uses would primarily be streamlining mega editing tasks.
 
If there is one thing you decide upon when making your decision, I ask that it be whether you trust me as a user, and potentially as a sysop. If you have the confidence to trust me as both, then I ask you to consider this candidacy. If you don't, then I insist you to remain against this nomination.
 
Honesty and boldness is appreciated. Feel free to ask me questions of any nature.

===[[User:Pestolence]]===
I've been around the wiki for seven months, since November 2008, and I have made almost 1,000 edits in that time. Among my more helpful work on the wiki has been joining [[Project Wiki Patrol]], giving new users advice or help when they need it, and voting/commenting on the various administration pages. Recently, I have started an attempt to remove merged location pages (example: [[Dakerstown Hotels]]) from the wiki and replace them with individual location pages.
 
I would like to become a sysop for several reasons, primarily because the ability to delete pages will significantly speed up the removal of merged pages from the wiki, and because it will allow me to carry out routine tasks such as speedy deletion, page moving, and page protecting when I see that it needs to be done. I would not restrict my sysop activity to those pages specifically, but the majority of my activity would happen there.
 
If anyone needs more information to make up their mind on my bid, I invite you to look back through my [[Special:Contributions/Pestolence|user contributions]], as well as [[User:Pestolence/WikiWork|this page]] which contains most of the major projects I've worked on, and [[User:Pestolence/WIP|my sandbox page]], which includes my work on merged location pages. Anyone who would like to question me further about anything is welcome to do so, here or on [[User talk:Pestolence|my talk page]]. --{{User:Pestolence/Sig}} 01:19, 12 May 2009 (BST)
 
*'''Hesitant Vouch''' You realize that you still have to go through deletion requests as a sysop right? And Speedy's still require someone other than you...

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)
