==Candidates currently under community discussion==
===[[User:The General]]===
{{bid|The General}}


Since he had [[UDWiki:Administration/Re-Evaluations/The General (2)|badly going RE]] due to inactivity a year ago (which were only short-circuited due to self-requested demotion), he has made a great return and stemmed a lot of grunt work, including cleaning up various pages and detecting missed scheduled protections in the suggestions system. As for leadership roles, he has started the signature policy discussion, showing awareness of current issues on the opinion pages. I think he deserves a chance to show once more for some months if he can handle the job. --'''<span style="font-family:monospace; background-color:#222222">[[User:Spiderzed|<span style="color:Lime"> Spiderzed</span>]][[User talk:Spiderzed|<span style="color:Lime">█ </span>]]</span>''' 21:25, 4 May 2011 (BST)

''There are no candidates at this time.''
*'''Strong Vouch''' - The General has, imo, always been a strong member of the team. When I first came to the wiki, he was already quite inactive, but by his first evaluation, the few edits I'd seen him make won me over. Even when he was making relatively few edits, he was making fantastic ones. Now, he's making lots of edits. If he can keep it up without burning out again, then he'll be by far one of the greatest assets to the team.--[[User:Yonnua Koponen|<span style="color: DarkOrange">Yonnua Koponen</span>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Yonnua Koponen| <span style="color:Gold">T</span>]][[DvB| <span style="color: Goldenrod">G</span>]]</sup><sup><span class="stealthexternallink">[http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=840689 <span style="color: DarkGoldenrod"> P</span>] </span></sup> [[User:Yonnua Koponen/Sandbox|<span style="color: Red">^</span>]][[Discosaurs|<span style="color: Red">^</span>]][[{{TALKPAGENAME}}#Donkey|<span style="color: Red">^</span>]] 21:41, 4 May 2011 (BST)
*:Fantastic edits. EPIC, '''''REVOLUTIONARY''''' edits. The kind of edits that only come along '''once in a lifetime'''. Now...combine that with LOTS OF EDITS and you get, and I'm not ashamed to say it, THE greatest UD Wiki asset '''''of all time'''''.

*'''Weak Against''' - Too soon. He's been here less than a month. Sure he's done more grunt work in that month than I generally do in a year, I applaud him for doing so but in that short time-span I can't say how long that will last, how he is in admin pages, I just barely know the guy and I'm not sure if he knows the community well enough himself. He's doing great now, so keep going.

*'''Weak Vouch''' - 1) to counter Thad 2) He's a good contributor when he's active.  --{{User:AnimeSucks/Sig}} 22:02, 4 May 2011 (BST)
*'''Vouch''' - Has enough technical knowledge of both the wiki and the internet. I appreciate when another user understands IPs enough that them having access to [[Special:Checkuser]] is actually useful. Not to mention he's always been willing to discuss his rulings and give users a chance when he's actually been around.--<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 22:37, 4 May 2011 (BST)

*'''Very Strong Against''' - Guy went around correcting typos on 2-year-old postings just so he could get to 500 edits. No. No fucking way. That is not the action of someone who should be an admin. That is the action of a psychotic who should be as far removed from power as is humanly possible.

*'''Vouch''' - He has a VERY strong technical background, and, in IRC conversations with him, I've seen that he's over my head on some or a lot of the technical know-how related to the wiki (which is kinda nice, since Rooster was the last regular who frequently did technical things I didn't always understand at a glance). He's not afraid to disagree when it needs to be done, but he doesn't do it just for the sake of doing it. I have a few things I'm not sure about, but none so worrying that they would lessen the strength of my vouch.

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)
