Norsk bokmål:

2010–2011-forvalterbekreftelsene vil begynne 7. februar og vare til 28. februar.

Forvaltervalget for 2010–11 er en fin mulighet til å finne ut om vi er fornøyd med våre nåværende forvaltere. For å gjøre prosessen så strømlinjeformet som mulig, kan dere se her hvordan ting er organisert.

Vennligst logg inn med en brukerkonto med redigeringer (på en hvilken som helst wiki) før 1. februar 2010. Under 2010-valget, vennligst fortell om du er misfornøyd med en av personene listet nedenfor, og i tilfelle hvorfor. For eksempel kan bemerke inaktivitet eller negativ oppførsel. Inaktive forvlatere vil, som fastsatt i forvalterretningslinjene, miste sine rettigheter.

På slutten av valget vil de nåværende og nyvalgte forvalterne vurdere klagene og velge om forvalter-rettigheten skal fjernes, ut ifra både kommentarene som er avgitt og deres egne syn og forståelse av jobben. Alle forvaltere går igjennom denne prosessen etter hvert valg.

Of the 99 rightchanges he has done, 30 are in his home wiki/native language where he according to the steward-policy shouln't change rights, and the local community has said that they do not trust him (because of this?!), and the rest of his steward-work is mostly "easy" stuff like SRP.

keep - my view in general is that keeping onboard trustworthy people who have for some time been less active but are willing to continue using steward tools even when used very sparingly, will eventually lead to a greater evolutionary diversity in the stewards group. such diversity is essential, not only of talents or knowledge, but also variety of experience and number of years of service. with all respect, we don't want a uniform group of hyperactives solely, nor is there need of an overthrow of some sort of government, there is none here, since stewards do not rule. so let's keep such experience onboard where we can. in my philosophy, extended-rights communities should always be kept growing on a healthy wiki. please stay onboard by being/becoming sufficiently active (see current policy which sets the limits, but can use some updating as well imo). oscar 00:41, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not because of this, Laaknor. The community doesn't trust him anymore cause the checkuser tools were used without a valid reason. He says here that any recently created accounts were being checked, with no reason, with no use of summary. The ombudsman commission was comunicated about the fact. According to "CheckUser policy" the tool should removed immediately. It was not done, wich is a shame for this project. I have to say that I'm sure this user has good faith and it wasn't done for his own benefit.Teles ^{(talk / pt-wiki talk)} 02:06, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Remove rights because of preventive checkuser of new users at pt-wikinews (see link above). The Ombudsman committee was approached with this, but since ombudsmen are supposed to deal only with the Privacy policy (which was not violated) and not the Checkuser Policy ("There must be a valid reason to check a user."), I forwarded the case to the WMF. But I stated my opinion clearly that a checkuser must not perform checks without a valid reason, and that reason must be justified by the behaviour of the user to be checkusered. The fact that there is a persistent troll out there is not sufficient to checkuser random newly registered accounts, some of them without any edits on that wiki, others regular editors in good standing on other projects. --Tinz 18:23, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personal info: I have not been doing much lately, and to be honest that isn't very likely to change soon; still, it might. If people find that too little, I can accept it. On the other hand, I think I'm still trusted, and every little bit of help is help. And I do promise to do what I do the best I can, even if it is little.

Personal info: Personal info: Hi ! Although my steward related activities have been very light in the last year, I am still interested in keeping steward access. I'm currently struggling to start professional activities, so my involvement in steward stuff has been limited. But I'm still motivated and involved through the chapter in particular. I'll be happy to keep those access, but I would also fully understand (but regret :)) if removed due to my limited activity.

I count two steward actions within the last year. If this is true, I respectfully move to remove as inactive per policy, though she's still quite a valued Wikimedian. The foundation is encouraged to add Anthere to an internally-run group (such as Staff) if an exception is warranted. If there are more than ten actions (and I may well be missing some, such as deletion review) please let me know so I can modify this opinion. Kylu 02:16, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, any choice will be okay ultimately :-) Perhaps I need to explain why I wish to keep steward access. Some months ago, when I decided not to run again for elections, it was also out of true exhaustion. I needed a break and a very serious one. I feel much better now. But I also need to run like crazy to get again my own life in a working condition (well, such as earning money) and that's a tough one. I kept a few activities in wikimedia related world because I still want to help. But to be fair, that's less than I wish I would do. Last time I went on Commons, I was completely lost within the new rules for deletion and I ran away after a dozen deletions because I was told three times in a row that I should do it this way, not that way, but specifically like this and not like that. I felt completely out of it. A few times, I came to the steward page and felt similarly paralyzed and out of fear of just not doing it the *right* way, I decided to not do anything. I honestly wonder if other oldbies do not feel the same :))) I feel a bit stretched between the idea that I should just do as Angela and completely drop the whole idea of helping in that area (and that would possibly be more reasonable ?), but having the fear that when (if) I want to help again in that area, I will just not be able to do it, and I *know* that I will be too lazy to go again through the entire process to be reelected. It feels like "giving up". To be fair, perhaps the best comment above is the one from Bastique: "Keep, I'm sure we can find work for her." Yeah, what can I be useful for ? Meanwhile... all my thanks to ALL active stewards that help things working properly. Anthere
But, Anthere, when you say A few times, I came to the steward page and felt similarly paralyzed and out of fear of just not doing it the *right* way, I decided to not do anything., why didn't you simply ask if something was unclear? You really don't need to be ashamed for asking other stewards if you don't know what to do or how. ;o) We are there to help, you know. :) And actually, if you do something wrong, it can always be undone, explained and fixed. We are not on Commons, you won't get shouted on if you don't do things the "right way" after a longer break. ;) --თოგო ^(D) 00:34, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Believe it or not... I am easily "not bold". Back in 2001... it took me a full month before daring to do my first edit :) Anthere
Anthere, we don't need you for the stray bit flip or rename or global account lock or what have you. We need you for your experience, going way back, so that when we float new ideas on the mailing list you can say "we tried that in 2006 and here's what happened", and when we try to figure out thorny problems, or review policy implications, you can share your expertise with us. That's far more important than bit flipping. IMHO anyway. ++Lar: t/c 16:43, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, and for your question, that was exactly what I felt when I was back to meta from my several month long wikibreak, and that was mainly why I didn't ask for granting the permission I had lost during my break (it had been just few days ago I came back, lol) ... so stay here, I sure bet you find yourself again quite comfortable and familiar in months or even in weeks, just I'm feeling so again. --Aphaia 02:00, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personal info: Hi all. Although my non-staff steward related activities have been light in the last year, (thanks to my staff responsibilities)--I am still active with multiple projects and am available on demand for steward-related functions. I maintain an interest in stewardship and am current on steward procedures (actively read the email list and am in constant contact with other stewards).

I don't respond to people who spread vicious lies. Like you're doing here. bastique ^demandez! 01:09, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wait, let me get this right: Proabivouac went to Cary with unsubstantiated rumors about a situation in which he was not involved, asked Cary to discuss this theoretical personal situation, and gets irritated because Cary did the quite correct thing in refusing to get involved in drama-mills? And you're questioning Cary's judgment? --Philippe 01:14, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cary, when you call me a "[person] who spread[s] vicious lies," you are yourself telling a lie, albeit one intended only to insulate yourself from accountability. You are well aware that these are not "unsubstantiated rumors": I interviewed these women myself, and I believe them. I don't imagine that anything could stop you from being reconfirmed - in DerHexer's words, "Has of course to be confirmed" - but I'd like you to think good and hard about what a responsible person would do in your situation. If a woman joins a Wikimedia project, requests a checkuser or attends a meetup only to be faced with this kind of behavior from a cross-project functionary, I hope you'll agree that's a real problem. I'll go further and say that it's your problem.Proabivouac 06:53, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Personal info: I have been a steward since Dec 2006. I am currently in the final semester of a MA Anthropology program. This has consumed most of my time for the past year and a half and will likely leave me with little free time until May. After May, I hope to resume a reasonable activity level.

keep - my view in general is that keeping onboard trustworthy people who have for some time been less active but are willing to continue using steward tools even when used very sparingly, will eventually lead to a greater evolutionary diversity in the stewards group. such diversity is essential, not only of talents or knowledge, but also variety of experience and number of years of service. with all respect, we don't want a uniform group of hyperactives solely, nor is there need of an overthrow of some sort of government, there is none here, since stewards do not rule. so let's keep such experience onboard where we can. in my philosophy, extended-rights communities should always be kept growing on a healthy wiki. please stay onboard by being/becoming sufficiently active (see current policy which sets the limits, but can use some updating as well imo). in this case i would propose to set a re-evaluation date in 6 months perhaps. oscar 00:44, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
if the commitment is to resume in May, I think that a wikibreak until then is acceptable, though again the reflection of the community's needs to be paramount in whether they are bringing value in sitting in the seat made available. billinghurst sDrewth 13:35, 11 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Languages: fr, en-3
Personal info: My general statement isn't that different from last year's : as a steward, I sometimes make a few mistakes but I think I'm not doing a bad work overall.
For those not aquainted to me yet:
- My home wiki is frwiki, the french Wikipedia. I arrived in nov. 2004 and became a sysop there in march 2005. I also worked there as a bureaucrat for 3 years (jun 2006 - sep. 2009) but gave up the bit so I could spend more time on other things.
- I manage a bot named Loveless (see [2] and [3])
- I became steward at end of 2006. I don't really do steward requests on wiki but rather use my availability time to take care of the emergency people tells us of on IRC (#wikimedia-stewards), which mainly consist of blocking vandals on wiki not having active sysops (sometimes blocking them globally if they go cross-wiki) and often help repair the damage they did. My public steward activities (everything but Oversight and Checkuser) are viewable on this page ; those local to meta (like right changes) on this one.

Personal info: Hi folks! I would like to continue working as a steward. Because of my studies in RL I unfortunally could not be as active during the last year as I would have liked to. But I tried to be frequently available on IRC to help out esp. on #cvn-unifications and #wikimedia-stewards. Concerning the first one I mostly did oversight related stuff, also as temporary oversight on frwiki. On the other hand, I managed those requests which were taken to the steward channel; in this context I'd like to thank all those helpers! All in all I did about 2,000 logged steward actions on meta during the last year, and highly likely even more sysop and esp. oversight actions on local wikis which I haven't counted but can be partially seen in the stats. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 13:13, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

~~Neutral~~ Opposeper this conversation. His English clearly appears to be not what he describes.seems kind but unresponsive. While the candidate introduces himself able to speak advanced English, but he attributed his belated answer in a brief sentence to his English. So I'm not sure about his language ability.--Caspian blue 05:15, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know why “Since I'm […] busy with exams, I cannot help you adequately at the moment.” was so ambiguous. I've even forwarded your mail to steward-l but no other one was able to help you, also not the native speakers. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 10:45, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry but you have not answered to my next message which directly asked your assessment. The unresponsiveness is not my only assessment either.-Caspian blue 12:51, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It was a bit ~~audacious~~daring (changed later) to respond to my mail where I've written that I do not have time because of my exams, with an ever longer mail with more expectations. Have you ever read my mail? Why did you not accept that I haven't had the time to answer, although I explained you why? Do you expect stewards to ignore all things which happen in real life? And am I the only steward which could have helped you? I really feel sorry that I could not assist you, which I've also written in my mail. But if I cannot help you, I cannot. It shouldn't be too hard to accept that. So please remind that also stewards are volunteers. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 13:11, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
audacious - what a wrong and offensive choice of language for your defense. I'm switching my vote from now to oppose per this conversation in which you show me not a good communication skill. I of course read your email with only very short three sentences, that's why I could you send the next email not via Wikipedia email. Your first reply in one week was fully understandable for your personal matter, but the next one was not. I asked your "simple" assessment in your capacity (it did not require other steward's input which just would take for a few minutes) but you have not replied to it for about one month. Moreover, I did not consent you to forward my message to them without asking me first. Moreover, another editor said you have not replied too. So that is why I feel to say that you're not responsive.--Caspian blue 16:01, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, audacious derives from Latin audax resp. audacia, and perfectly fits here. Or do you think any other of these words would have fitted better? audacious is one of the nicest words of them, which is I why I have chosen it. Because I assumed good faith also in that case where you have not asked for simple assessment, but instead wrote dozens of lines although you knew that I was and will also be busy with exams and neither could nor would answer. The only way to assist you, was to ask other ones.
As I explained now more than once: I really dislike not to help others as fast as possible, but if I'm not able to, how shall I do it? I'm not prefect, nobody is. Nor do I know everything. I try to do by best, each and everytime. I feel ashamed that I could not help you, but I couldn't. And it makes me quite sad that you cannot accept that. So kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:29, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Please look up the word in a dictionary. That means "impudent" or "how dare you" - insulting language. You also have not explained why you did not first ask my permission on whether I would be okay for your forwarding my message to other stewards. I think your communication skill is not good.--Caspian blue 16:36, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Two meanings: 1. kühn, verwegen, 2. (negative) dreist, unverfroren; the first one was meant, of course; it was even weakened with "a bit". OALD lists to audacious: willing to take risks or to do sth shocking. I was in fact shocked why you have sent me another, even longer mail, although I told you that I neither would nor could respond/help you. And sorry for not letting you know that I've forwarded your mail, that was wrong. Please I excuse that. I just wanted to assist you, although I could not do that on my own. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:44, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure why you're bringing with the German translation since you know I'm not German. You said due to your personal matter, you can not help me "at the moment". Your way of defending yourself is "shocking" to me. I gave you a benefit of doubt, so I was in "neutral" position, but your obviously bad communication skill does not give me enough comfort to confirm you as a steward. Sorry, that is my final answer--Caspian blue 16:47, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If I haven't had an edit conflict I had added some links to en.wiktionary: w:wikt:kühn e.g. So apparently daring should have been used instead of adacious. So please forgive this single word. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 16:52, 20 February 2010 (UTC) P.S.: The precedent comment was changed after that reply.[reply]

Oppose - He used oversight inappropriately in November 2009 on English Wikipedia, resulting in the Randy in Boise mess. He is an admin on this wiki, and it is his home wiki; he participated in an election to obtain the Oversight bit on English Wikipedia in February 2009, and was not appointed. Stewards are expected to avoid using their steward tools on their home wiki - that rule exists to avoid stewards being pressured from their close friends on their home wiki. In his public statement about this, he did not say who had convinced him on IRC to use oversight in this situation without first googling the phrase he suppressed.(I note that they support his continued stewardship here) In addition, DerHexer refused to provide information to the English Wikipedia Audit Subcommittee regarding the "Randy in Boise" mess, even after repeated requests. John Vandenberg 04:45, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I don't know why it is important that I failed by one single vote in an oversight election where I was involuntarily pushed in, but that wiki is, in fact, not my homewiki. I first started editing on dewiki and I'm still active there whereby I just regularily edited enwiki from April 2007 to March 2008 where I called that my second homewiki and became an admin. I've made more edits on dewiki than on enwiki and would have changed the SUL information about my homewiki from enwiki to dewiki if that would be possible. But even if it would be my homewiki your conclusion is wrong. Steward policy (SP#Avoid_conflicts_of_interest) says: “Stewards should use their judgment to avoid conflicts of interest, situations where they are not impartial to the decision. Such situations should be left to neutral stewards. These include: # using steward access on any wiki where they have been blocked; # changing rights on home wikis (wikis where they are active community members), except for clearcut cases (such as self-requested removal or emergencies).” I'm not blocked on enwiki and have not changed my rights for that oversight action because Stewards have global oversight access concerning this bug. But even if I had changed my rights I would not have done that on my homewiki (as I explained) and I also assumed an emergency action (see below) which allowed me according to the Oversight policy to act how I acted: “Local oversighters should generally handle local oversighting, when they're available. Stewards may perform local oversighting in emergencies, during crosswiki oversighting, or if there are no local oversighters available (see contact details).”

Now to that special case: I was asked by a local bureaucrat (so a trustworthy person) to remove a private information which “outed him”. I knew that bureaucrat because of my interactions on enwiki in the past, that is true, but I know many crats from many projects. We talked rarely to each other so that I would not call him a close friend and I assume he me neither. Later the involved “outed” user confirmed that request. The crats told me that the other user has sent a mail to oversight-l to let the private information be removed. That happened more than an hour ago and I was told that no one had discussed there, which is why the crat asked me what now should be done. There was also no oversight on IRC, so I acted in an emergency action where no local oversight was available which perfectly fits in the oversight policy. So it was of course no abuse, the AUSC confirmed that, and I'm still confused as to why these facts cannot be accepted. Later I was told that it was discussed, but that cannot be my fault because I haven't had access to that list (nor have it atm although it was recommented by AUSC to give stewards access to the list and I have asked for) and one person with access to the list told me that they haven't discussed it. The problematic information was: user name with “[…] Randy from Boise […]“. The “outed” user's name is in fact Randy, he felt frightened to be outed and asked others to remove it as fast as possible. Because no one (as I was told) took care of his request I made the decision to work according to the foundation's privacy policy, oversight policy §1 (“# Removal of non-public personal information such as phone numbers, home addresses, workplaces or identities of pseudonymous or anonymous individuals who have not made their identity public, or of public individuals who have not made that personal information public.”) and steward policy (see above). It came out in the aftermath that “Randy from Boise” is a saying which neither the “outed” user, nor the crat, nor me, nor many other native speakers knew. I feel very sorry that I have not double-checked if that phrase could mean any other thing than outing the user. It was important in my understanding of privacy, as foundation constituted it, to remove that published information as fast as possible; and while oversight actions can now luckily be reverted, I made that decision based on the information I had. That might not have been the best one, but of course made with best faith and according to our policies. If that can be called a mistake, others have to decide.

Finally, it is untrue that I refused to provide information to the AUSC. We mailed each other, and I told them that I do not know how I can help them furthermore to look at the facts as good as possible, because I e. g. haven't had logs which could have confirmed my statement. I added, that if I could help them in any other way they should not hesitate to contact me because it was also in my interest to complete that case. I was not contacted afterwards except for a hint to the final decision. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 15:19, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
47% of your edits are on en.wp. 48.5% of your edits are on de.wp. I hate to break the news to you, but you should consider them both to be your home wiki, as you have been heavily involved in each. You have sought advanced permissions on the project.

Irrespective of that, you should avoid being pressured into using your steward tools without even a cursory independent investigation. If you can not take a few minutes to understand the problem, then you are acting emotively and under pressure. As you know, your first suppression action didn't even fix the problem; you came back 30 mins later (IIRC) to oversight another 15 revisions (IIRC) in order to properly remove the phrase. Also, after you did the oversight, you did not send an email to the local oversight mailing list to explain why you felt necessary to step in when there are 40 oversighters on en.wp in all timezones, and to indicate that local oversighters could overrule you if they understood the problem better than you did.

Your response to the AUSC request of November 18 was evasive, and you did not respond to the follow-up AUSC email of November 19. John Vandenberg 22:26, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That's in fact not true. I responded on December the 5th to arbcom-audit-en@lists.wikimedia.org with topic “AW: [arbcom-audit-en] Request on ANI supression” with nearly exactly the same words as written above when the mail from November the 18th was forwarded to me. And I got no error, Mailer daemon, whatever.

I was never involved in enwiki and just quite effectively doing anti-vandalism stuff there which I now do (beside other things) on 750 projects, and according to that confirmation page not that bad. If I had known enwiki well, I would also have known that enwiki's oversights and ArbCom unwrittenly insist on reports when steward work in emergency situations (and no local ones were available) according to our policies to take care of one's user's privacy, and would not have gone to bed soon after that action. I never had to notify users on other wikis, well, I rarely do steward actions on wikis with user which have the needed local rights. But if I would not have judged it as an emergency situation I would not have done it. I seemed so obvious to me that I have not thought about googling, that it might have been a saying. Yes, I made a wrong decision, but it was reversed under premises which came out in the aftermath, I excused myself and explained the circumstances. The only thing I could do and still try to do, is asking others to accept my excuse and forgive my decision because I cannot go back in time and switch that, which I would really liked to. I have learnt many thing concerning this steward actions and would never again do any of these without letting the ArbCom (Oversights, CheckUsers) know what I've done. In fact, I would never do a steward action again on enwiki. Kind regards and again sincere apologizes, —DerHexer (Talk) 23:00, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Моя заявка на бюрократа была отклонена. Не подумайте что меня это сильно расстроило :) Нет, я просто считаю что была нарушена процедура принятия решения. Несколько стюардов решали это на основании личного мнения. (Кто-то более корректно, кто то в приказном порядке.) Хотя это прямо запрещено правилом Stewards policy#Don't decide. Было объявлено, что есть некое мнение о минимальном числе голосов в этом случае. Не смотря на то, что месяц обратно на это совершенно не обращали внимания. При акционировании на этом внимании произошло обсуждение Talk:Bureaucrat#Minimum_number_of_votes. Но результата никакого не последовало. Никаких новых ограничений не было выдвинуто. Поэтому я считаю, что тут действовали не согласно правилам, а согласно личному мнению, наверное обо мне, в чем и проявляется (POV pushing), правда не одного, а нескольких стюардов. Я лишь по прежнему настаиваю, что данное требование о минимальном числе голосов - должно быть официально записано. Хотя лично я не считаю это необходимым, но нужно это спросить у сообщества, а не только у стюардов - и только тогда такие решения, которые были приняты в моем частном случае, могут быть легитимный. Без этого были нарушения о которых я говорю. SergeyJ 01:49, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply] Autotransfer. Probably you wish more developed explanatory. In advance I apologise for a size. My demand for the bureaucrat has been rejected. Do not think that it has strongly upset me :) Is not present, I simply consider that decision-making procedure has been broken. Some stewards solved it on the basis of personal opinion. (Someone it is more correct, who that in the form of an order.) Though it is directly forbidden by a rule Stewards policy#Don't decide. It has been declared that there is a certain opinion on the minimum poll in this case. Despite that back at all did not pay month attention to it. At the strengthened reference on it of attention on this attention there was a discussion Talk:Bureaucrat#Minimum_number_of_votes. But result any has not followed. Any new restrictions it has not been put forward. Therefore I consider that here operated not according to rules, and according to personal opinion, probably about me in what it is shown (POV pushing), the truth not one, and several stewards. I only on the former insist that the given requirement about the minimum poll - should be written officially down. Though personally I do not consider it necessary, but it is necessary to ask it community, and not just at stewards - and only then such decisions which have been accepted in my special case, can be legitimate. Without it there were infringements about which I speak. SergeyJ 01:51, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply] Confirm Thank you for continued service.
