| | <!--- |
| We're down to nine sysops, effectively seven with computer problems and a soon to be resolved misconduct case. And of those seven, at least two are frightened of drama, a trait that is reprehensible in a sysop. Accordingly we need new sysops, and given that I'm never going to be promoted while Boxy holds the position of 'crat, we may as well have Wan.
| |
|
| |
|
| Wan has been around for years, shows a clear understanding of policy and procedure and is [[UDWiki:Administration/Policy_Discussion/Prohibit_Sysop_Misconduct_Self-Punishment|working to resolve contentious issues]] rather than leave ambiguity as past sysops have. His contributions show him to be extremely active, a trait desired by the community given the unilateral negative outpouring on [[User:Daranz|Daranz's]] A/RE. He has been attempting to maintain NPOV on suburb pages for more than a good while now to improve the wiki, and has shown a willingness to engage, and if necessary argue, with any user on matters of principle within policy and misconduct proceedings.

| *'''Vouch''' - Although not as pretty, funny or intelligent as me, Wan would make a safer and more suitable sysop than others already in the position. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 04:18, 13 September 2009 (BST)
| | ===[[User:DanceDanceRevolution]]=== |
| *'''Against''' - See now I was ''just'' thinking that we might be in need of an extra sysop or two. Unfortunately Wan is Not Good. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 04:21, 13 September 2009 (BST)

| *:'''Vouch''' - Hell, he would be a nice equation to the team. Like it or not, enough of the newer fairly active users seem to agree with him most of the time--{{User:SirArgo/Signature}} 05:51, 13 September 2009 (BST)

| *'''Vouch''' - As long as he commits to editing the wiki and actually reads the ''whole'' story of what he's participating in. I don't want to have to fight more of [[UDWiki talk:Administration/Policy Discussion/Community Sysop Demotion|this]] bantering. Thankfully though, his [[UDWiki:Administration/Policy Discussion/Prohibit Sysop Misconduct Self-Punishment|new]] PD is being controlled in a more workable and co-operative manor, which is why I like to think Wan has ridden of the only real problem I had with him this year- him not having the time nor effort to read the argument before backfiring. I trust him now. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|Chartreuse}}-- 05:06, 13 September 2009 (BST) | |
| *:"if it's being used against someone I don't like it's okay because I HATE THEM SO MUCH THEY DESERVE IT" --ddr {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 05:14, 13 September 2009 (BST)

| *::Is there ever a time when someone has an opinion that you ''don't'' put down to sheer, petty bias? Don't bother answering, its rhetorical. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|Chartreuse}}-- 05:18, 13 September 2009 (BST)
| |
| *:::Okay then Mr Neutrality, explain to me how you can describe the manner in which Wan handled his policy discussion as being "workable and co-operative" when a very sizeable chunk of his posts there have been anything but. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 05:21, 13 September 2009 (BST)
| |
| *::::That's like, just your opinion bro--{{User:Sexylegsread/sig}} 05:41, 13 September 2009 (BST)
| |
| *::::Actions speak louder than words and my preference is that he reworks the policy to the wishes of those interested. Beyond that I don't give a shit how much he whinges. Personally though, I don't care about this bid enough to argue for Wan any further, that's his job. I simply wish to vouch him this time. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|Chartreuse}}-- 05:44, 13 September 2009 (BST)
| |
| *'''Abstain''' I haven't seen enough of Wan's ''recent'' behavior to really be sure of his current behavior and intentions. But the "discussions" I had with him a while back over a policy showed me that he can pretty much be closed to the "other side's" discussion, even refusing to ''read their posts''. But I can't be sure if he's still like this or if he's changed, hence the abstain. {{User:Linkthewindow/Sig}} 05:30, 13 September 2009 (BST)
| |
| *'''Against''' recent actions and statements by Wan indicate an inability to act mature when presented with opinions diabolically opposed to his own regardless of ''any'' validity those opinions may have. the very fact that Izzy is putting him up for promotion makes the whole bid circumspect.

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
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)
