| Hello,
| | ===[[User:Hagnat]]=== |
| | *[[UDWiki:Administration/Sysop Archives/Hagnat/2019-08-14 Promotion|Archived as Unsuccessful]]. |
|
| |
|
| I have actively contributed to the wiki since July 2009, and have worked intermittently since early 2009. In this time I was the driving force behind completing the [[BIC]] (as documented [[User:Red Hawk One/My BIC|here]] and in my contributions), and partially behind the recent revival in demerging locations pages (as evidenced in the prior link, as well as the previous three month's A/SD records). I often follow [[A/SD]], [[A/PT]], and [[A/MR]], although as a regular user I am currently unable to really do anything on those pages. So far as I can tell, I have made no enemies, and am polite and professional in my conduct with other users. For these reasons, I wish to run for sysop, in order to better maintain the wiki as an information source for the game.

| *'''Against''' If Sysop status just gave you the ability to tidy things up easier I would vouch.

| *'''Against''' - You don't need extra buttons to do what you do. You don't need extra buttons to improve the wiki. I don't want you to have extra buttons because I have no idea of how you're going to act when you get on A/VB or A/M. This notion that people who implement new systems and templates on the wiki will make good sysops is simply idiotic, they either make a mess of rulings or they just stick their heads in the sand and ignore these pages even when they are required. We already have two drama adverse sysops simply taking up space on the roster, I don't want more that will leave ruling in the hands of a small group. We need sysops that can rule based on understanding this community, its precedents and policies. They can then be taught to move/delete/restore pages far quicker than we can teach you what you need to know about vandalism, misconduct and good faith. Also, messing up a move isn't serious, causing a ruling to go the wrong way because you want to be nice can have much more serious consequences for this community. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 19:48, 1 November 2009 (UTC) | |

| Alright, might as well get this on the road. I consider Red Hawk One a user trustworthy user when it comes to keeping his mind on his job and not getting carried away in activities he considers unnecessary on the wiki, ie. drama. There are an interesting number of againsts made critiquing Red Hawk One, not based on his experience or past work, but lack of such in drama fields such as A/VB, A/M and A/PD. There have been sysops who notoriously avoid these areas (ie. Rooster and Link) and stick to gnoming duties, and we consider them to be good sysops; and we should have more of these. I think we should all work towards being accepting towards these types of users as potential sysops, not because we should be ''obliged'' to, but because sysops with no drama aspirations and a hard-working attitude are ideal in no-nonsense, helpful operators.
| |
| | |
| To be able to promote a user under these circumstances, you have to trust the budding sysop to be capable of ''choosing'' to avoid the drama fields once the buttons are given, and Boxy and I trust Red Hawk One. '''Promoted'''. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|red|black}}-- 00:12, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| :Promoting a user with a 33% approval rating from the community, the last time we promoted someone with such low numbers it was Hagnat and look how well that turned out....
| |
| | |
| :Considering the fact that nearly half of his vouches had no comments or nonsensical remarks it really makes the case for doing away with this system and letting the 'crats promote whoever they want given they are already. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 12:08, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| ::I forgot this was such a quantitative system we had here. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|red|black}}-- 12:21, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| :::There's little point in asking for community input if not even 50% of those turning out to register their opinions would vouch for the candidate. His numbers are actually slightly higher in the early 40's I think. Potentially someone could receive a single vouch out of 21 votes and you could still promoted, since you aren't actually going with the majority (and it's not like this bid was meat-puppeted) it seems stupid to continue with a system that you out and out ignore. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 12:30, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| ::::I know how and why you are saying this and I understand- But we do have the best intentions at heart and Boxy and I did discuss this thoroughly enough to discuss all the points that the community raised- we are going to try and move towards a community where "needz moar drama" is no longer a prerequisite for sysops who have absolutely no tendency to confront it, and the only way to do that is to prove to them that it is the case. And now we have A/RE, so it means the outcome of our actions- whether it be in the form of them failing their first bid or the form of us failing for promoting too willingly- can and may have subsequent repercussions. I'm willing to stake my future position on striving towards this goal. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|red|black}}-- 12:48, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

| I have actively contributed to the wiki and its community since July this year. In this time, I have played a part in setting up the [[Building Information Center]], and also started up the [[Lexicon:Survival|Survival Lexicon]]. I am an occasional visitor of [[DS]], and am familiar with the process of [[A/D|Deletions]]. I believe I have had no major disagreements on the wiki with another member.
| |
| | |
| I am currently unmerging locations pages and updating all [[:Category:Auto Repair Shops|Auto Repair Shop]] and [[:Category:Factories|Factory]] pages with their corresponding [[:Category:Building Danger Levels|Danger Reports]] in the process of updating the [[Template:Trps|TRP template]].

Also, messing up a move isn't serious, causing a ruling to go the wrong way because you want to be nice can have much more serious consequences for this community. Additionally this user has previously decided that his own opinions and perceptions are all he needs to go around changing stuff for other groups. I have doubts about his ability to remain impartial. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 19:53, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
| |
| *:In my opinion, the majority of those that put themselves up for sysop don't need the tools that come with the post, nor do they have much experience in A/VB or A/M. From looking at the Successful bid history, I can only see [[UdWiki:Administration/Promotions/Jedaz|Jedaz]] needed the "buttons". (Although the reference to needing the Move function is very slight, it is the only mention of needing sysop tools I have seen reading through the old bids.)
| |
| *:I am also slightly confused by the comment "This notion that people who implement new systems and templates on the wiki will make good sysops is simply idiotic", as leadership is one of the criterion for sysophood, something which implementing new systems requires. I also found a [[UdWiki:Administration/Promotions/Swiers|quote from Vista]](A former Crat.): "...the position of a sysop is that of a glorified janitor." You may well say it's idiotic, but that notion seems to have stayed for at least two years.
| |
| *:In response to the last statement, I was in the wrong. If I were to find something on the wiki that I disagree with, I would now check around and try to find out about the oddity. I suppose there is no-one I can thank for that trait than you, Iscariot. But I might mention Vista once again, who (in the same speech) said this: "The only place where a small amount of personal judgment is possible is the vandal banning page."

| *::At least you, unlike the other one are actively engaging criticism rather than burying your head in the sand. You're not seeing though the difference between a good programmer and a good community leader. Take the recent Nubis misconduct case, given the magnitude of that case we ''needed'' every sysop to participate and state their judgement and opinions about it, it's part of the responsibility of being a sysop. The Rooster didn't, even when reminded. The Rooster is an excellent programmer but he is a bad sysop. Sometime you ''have'' to go into the drama for the good of the community, even if all you're going to do is post 5 paragraphs of reasoning, opinion and precedent that boils down you "Yep, I agree". I don't know how you'd do this because I've never seen you in any drama or attempting to create policy or bring forth relevant precedent. I don't want you getting buttons on the basis that you've done some helpful templates and watch you completely mess up user's vandal cases, misconduct case etc. for eight months until I can get rid of you. ''You'' really have to make the effort here to prove as best you can that you'd be able to cope with this to the community ''before'' you get the buttons. To be fair, I don't think you'd break the wiki if given move powers, but I'm not sure that you'd make the right decisions in places like VB or Misconduct. You don't need the buttons to continue your good work, and your use of the admin pages (to get emptied combined location pages deleted say) won't actually change as you can't do these actions yourself according to policy due to the need for oversight. -- {{User:Iscariot/Signature}} 01:20, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

| *:::Truly told, I don't have any of the experience you deem necessary. I will, therefore, try and immerse myself in Misbantration, or whatever shortening of the three pages names tickles your fancy. In all honesty, I have pretty much no idea how arbitration works and have actively avoided it before now, prefering to stick with what I know. But, seeing as I want to be a sysop, I need to learn how that and the other misconduct pages work. So, in short "I agree." {{User:Rorybob/Sig/1|19:49, 3 November 2009 (UTC)}}

| ::::Arbitration isn't a "misconduct" type of page... It doesn't often work and is mostly a tool for people to to persue their petty vendetta. Looking to reform it back to a useful community page on the otherhand would be well worth it if successful!--[[User:Honestmistake|Honestmistake]] 19:56, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

| *'''against''' -- In the past I have generally voted against people who nominate themselves. All the candidates I've ever voted for had somebody else nominate him/her. I sense a pattern... [[User:Asheets|Asheets]] 18:46, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

| The nomination has ended, and Boxy and I have talked about Rorybob's bid. First off, I'm going to say that neither I nor Boxy have any compunction with promoting hard-working users who don't deal with drama, we've had plenty of fine examples to demonstrate that such users make good ops, and even past our time, if there was anything I would have stay in the wiki's administration culture, it would be that mentality.

| | |
| More to the point, Rory is an example of one of these users, and oneday, personally, I would like to see him as an op. But at the moment, he's a little bit rusty with the going-ons and falls a little short of op material, and personally, Boxy and I would like to see an extension of his great community work before he is promoted. Keep it up, bud, and I think you'll become an op soon. '''Rejected''', but try again in a month or two. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|red|black}}-- 09:14, 12 November 2009 (UTC)
