Hi, I am DarkMatterMan4500 from Miraheze, and I want to apply for the [[Global Patrollers]] permission here on WikiOasis, based on my experiences from Miraheze, since I have been working hard on clearing away vandalism all across the wikifarm for the [[mh:m:CVT|counter-vandalism team]] from said wikifarm. Now, I understand that some of you may have questions and concerns for me, and I&#039;ll do my best to answer them in the best way I can, so feel free to give your [[mh:allthetropes:Brutal Honesty|honest opinions]] without sugarcoating anything. I am fully aware that Global Patrollers can block users all across the WikiOasis wikis (regardless of where the [[w:WP:DISRUPT|disruption]] is taking place), delete pages, revisions, and use the basic tools, but with limited options, something that I&#039;m willing to take as a fellow editor. --[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 15:57, 18 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Globe (Revocation) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hello all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have been ruminating on this for a while, and while I understand my own role in this conflict, it has been brewing for many months behind closed doors. I understand Globe has held this role (or equivalent) since almost day 1 of WO, however right now, I don&#039;t believe that Globe has either the intention or the ability to continue to act in the best interest of WO. This latest incident which has cemented my opinion on the matter is relating to attempts to micromanage the opinions of volunteers. I will detail this further along in this fairly long topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is not meant to be a spiteful attempt to remove him from a position of trust within the community, but I myself feel the trust that I have placed in Globe is no longer honoured. This stems from a pattern of behaviour that I have noticed that appears to me to be anti-community, and some are downright ridiculous:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Globe has a very strong opposition to 2FA (two-factor authentication), which is currently mandated for all foundation managed Google accounts. Globe does not have 2FA enabled currently on his on wiki account as of writing, and at the time when I changed 2FA to become a requirement for foundation Google accounts, I recall Globe saying (through channels that have since been made private to me), that he was considering motioning the board to remove requirements for 2FA. I need not explain the security risks this poses, but the attitude of &amp;quot;I have a strong enough password not to get hacked&amp;quot; really isn&#039;t sufficient, and runs a risk of compromise to users safety.&lt;br /&gt;
* I continually have the belief that Globe wants to keep control of the site, such as election of stewards, global sysops and other RfC topics under the control of the board, one of his concerns being people from less reputable communities supporting their preferred candidates who may cause problems. While I appreciate the community governance mechanisms haven&#039;t been around for long, these concerns are yet to be realised, and I&#039;ve seen evidence above on this page that these concerns have actively not happened.&lt;br /&gt;
* The latest incident is surrounding volunteer opinions, their ability to speak freely, and Globe actively trying to micromanage them. If you read [[User:Globe/Volunteer Conduct Policy]] (which is largely LLM generated), it effectively removes any ability for volunteers to speak critically on any matter. This is backed up by internal messages, where [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] said to Globe &#039;You&#039;re just trying to drag it out for some ideal behaviour that you want to be enforced on WikiOasis Volunteers&#039;, where he then responded &#039;Correct. You&#039;ve got it&#039;. The belief that volunteers represent the foundation is entirely unfounded, has not been approved by the board to my knowledge, and these roles are entirely community managed and shouldn&#039;t be micromanaged by the foundation, this goes entirely against the point of the roles being appointed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to turn this into a big spat, because it&#039;s not worth the time, but right now the constant internal arguments provide an environment I cannot work in, to the point that I am planning to distance myself from the project entirely (or at least to tech only until someone can takeover those responsiblities) when these weekly arguments are happening, it contributes to me becoming ever more burnt out, and generally makes me not enjoy working on the project in the way that I did. I am ending up pulled away from tech to defend my peers when their conduct is continually being pointed out by Globe as unacceptable for various reasons which to me and others seem unacceptable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate this is very much the nuclear option, but right now I don&#039;t see Globe&#039;s involvement in the steward team to be contributing positively to the overall success of this project, and instead focuses on micromanaging his peers as though he has superiority over them, and continually picking flaws with how they speak in public channels. The approach of those in the private channels must only ever speak positively of WO and the wikis that are hosted on it is not the right one in my belief, and Globe is pushing this so hard that it comes at the expense of the overall wellbeing of the project, to the point that it is actively harming it. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 07:14, 23 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Discussion ===&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;{{support}}. I, too, have been pondering on this for a while, and Globe&#039;s involvement in the project is very much hurting, rather than helping. Constant spats with Zippy, constant dictatorial actions. I&#039;m done with Globe, and I think it&#039;s his time to move on from the project. [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 20:18, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*:{{oppose}}, this seems to have turned into purely a personal spat, and I suggest a boomerang for those involved. [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 03:30, 24 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{support}} - [[User:FNFGamer718|FNFGamer718]] ([[User talk:FNFGamer718|talk]]) 20:23, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{support}} - No offense, but he has to go and move on. A lot of times Globe and Zippy are usually arguing at each other for something that is just nonsensical. Additionally, the ideal he wants to be enforced is just dictatorial and delusional, everyone has human rights, and one of our rights is the right to have our own opinion. [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 20:28, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{Support|weak}} Well, I haven&#039;t been aware of Globe&#039;s recent conduct, but upon seeing this, I can actually understand why, and am actually quite troubled by the fact that Globe apparently wants to motion in removing the requirements for 2FA, when that&#039;s the most basic part about security. I mean, who in their right minds would want to get their accounts hacked regularly? ----[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 20:32, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:I plan on making a larger statement later, but the part about me motioning away requirements for 2FA on Google accounts did not happen. I have 2FA enabled on my Discord account and, if a requirement for volunteers to have 2FA on their on-wiki account passes, I would enable it here as well. I have already done so to comply with such a requirement on testwiki.wiki. I don&#039;t have it currently enabled because my authenticator is only on my phone, so I would be unable to access WO when I don&#039;t have my phone on me and am instead using my laptop. For the record, I do believe in account security and strong/unique passwords. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 20:38, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*::{{ping|Globe}} I am just so genuinely confused right now. --[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 20:45, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:::How so? I’m happy to explain anything further. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 20:49, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*::::{{ping|Globe}} About everything that {{user|Zippy}} was just talking about. --[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 11:28, 23 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:::::In my reply to {{noping|Fearless}} below, I attempted to debunk some of what Zippy said as well. I welcome additional questions that you still have. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 14:17, 23 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*::I never said you motioned it, I simply said you considered motioning it, might have been slightly unclear in my description but the general sentiment was that you were going to take further action from a board role about it --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 20:48, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:::Any way you want to say it is untrue. Google themselves requires 2FA for superadmins, it is not a board matter. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 20:50, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*::::Again, I do not have access to the channel but someone such as tali who retains access could check, you were saying you wanted to motion the board to remove the 2FA requirements that I had personally set on Google, as well as that which was set on Discord --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 20:54, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
* {{oppose}} My main statement “debunking” a lot of false claims made by Fearless and Zippy can be found in the subsection below, however, there are a few things I want to add here. This entire thread is a personal spite with not a shard of proof, other than “well I think I remember you said…” Whatever the reason for the spite request for removal is, I’m not exactly sure. Zippybonzo has already informed all of the volunteers of his intention to leave WikiOasis and start a new farm after the board refused to allow him to make WikiOasis an “exclusive farm” where only select wikis would be able to be created. He specifically mention the Italian Brainrot wiki and others that would not meet his ideals. Zippybonzo wants WikiOasis to be exactly what he wants and I am the only one who actively stands up to that. If standing on that is what causes me to lose my steward role, then so be it. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:47, 24 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:For posterity: the subsection Globe is referring to has been removed due to it containing messages from internal volunteer channels. [[User:Tali64³|Tali64³]] ([[User talk:Tali64³|talk]]) 02:19, 24 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
* {{oppose}} I agree with JR+  I don&#039;t see any evidence to support the claims made against globe [[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 04:11, 24 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Globe&#039;s CheckUser Usage Discussion ===&lt;br /&gt;
Hello everyone, I would like to bring light to how apparently Globe uses CheckUser permissions to check other user&#039;s information without any actual evidence, just doing CU whenever he feels &amp;quot;suspicious&amp;quot; about someone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zippy has told Globe in an internal volunteer channel that: &amp;quot;I don&#039;t like that you randomly run checkusers on people who show no behavioral evidence of needing a check with no reason attached.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
For volunteers who has access - go [https://discord.com/channels/1299761391523205273/1494723448482693141/1503881626445152317 here] regarding about the message I am referencing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is extremely concerning as PII should be handled securely and can&#039;t be done for any reason unless there is probable reason that Cross-Wiki abuse is happening via the usage of multiple user accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like Zippy/other uninvolved Stewards to explain more if there is additional details regarding Globe&#039;s CU usage and Globe to explain themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I genuinely believe Globe wants all the power to themselves and does not want the best for WikiOasis, as evidenced by him becoming a dictator and attempting to control volunteer&#039;s right to hold their opinions, keep the board&#039;s ability to appoint roles, and finally apparently doing CU unilaterally on seeming innocent users who has done nothing. Until Globe is completely removed from all volunteer positions, including being a Director of the WikiOasis Foundation Board, I may consider withholding information in respective volunteer channels as I cannot trust Globe since they have started arguments countless times for the dumbest reasons, alongside taking all the power to themselves and apparently doing CU on users with zero evidence and need to use it. --[[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 11:48, 23 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This statement is concerning on many levels. {{quote|Apparently Globe uses CheckUser permissions to check other user&#039;s information without any actual evidence.}}&lt;br /&gt;
:Is simply not true. I frankly don’t use the CheckUser tool that often, and I’ve made exactly one check in the month of May. Most (90% or more) of my checks originate from the extension SuggestedInvestigations. It flags when multiple users originate from the same IP or user agent, along with a few other things like disposable emails. I don’t really look at user agents or disposable emails as warranting a check, but if I see 5 accounts with similar usernames, editing patterns, and they’re showing up in suggested investigations, yeah, I’m going to make that check. I have forgotten to place a reason in some of my checks (but they can usually be assumed to be “triggered by suggested investigations”), and for that I do apologize, but I am always willing to explain my checks to the steward team as the privacy policy allows. &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:Further,&lt;br /&gt;
:{{quote|becoming a dictator and attempting to control volunteer&#039;s right to hold their opinions}}&lt;br /&gt;
:is also untrue. For context, Fearless is upset about me calling multiple statements of his in our public server (or those of Mira/our communities) unacceptable. Some examples:&lt;br /&gt;
:“I already told the stewards that I don&#039;t want the IBW to be here from the very start... IBW is just a massive mess and jank that I dislike having to deal with&lt;br /&gt;
:Asking an established wiki community of ours if they had been banned from Mira and why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze&lt;br /&gt;
:“oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:“I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki (Italian brainrot wiki]. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:His constant demeaning of the Italian Brainrot Wiki and honestly WO as a whole in both public spaces (and private ones, which I won’t share for his privacy) is concerning. I have no issue with him (or anyone) holding an opinion, but being constantly degrading to people who are working hard on their wiki in public spaces is not the conduct I expect from a volunteer. &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:{{quote|keep the board&#039;s ability to appoint roles}}&lt;br /&gt;
:More lies, unfortunately. I was the first to support the motion to allow the community to directly elect stewards, global sysops, and global patrollers. I was definitely initially skeptical, but ever since the first round of votes, I’ve been in support of it because of the great turnout.

== DarkMatterMan4500 (Global Patroller) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, I am DarkMatterMan4500 from Miraheze, and I want to apply for the [[Global Patrollers]] permission here on WikiOasis, based on my experiences from Miraheze, since I have been working hard on clearing away vandalism all across the wikifarm for the [[mh:m:CVT|counter-vandalism team]] from said wikifarm. Now, I understand that some of you may have questions and concerns for me, and I&#039;ll do my best to answer them in the best way I can, so feel free to give your [[mh:allthetropes:Brutal Honesty|honest opinions]] without sugarcoating anything. I am fully aware that Global Patrollers can block users all across the WikiOasis wikis (regardless of where the [[w:WP:DISRUPT|disruption]] is taking place), delete pages, revisions, and use the basic tools, but with limited options, something that I&#039;m willing to take as a fellow editor. --[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 15:57, 18 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*{{Support|strong}} - Candidate is well known in Miraheze and known in the MH Discord as a GP that deals with vandals or CVT issues at the CVT channel. Additionally after consulting Raidarr, the candidate has some issues that can be fixed (but no red flags) and 200 edits on Meta. This is what Raidarr said about DMM: &amp;quot;He has problems identifying and staying on the line and the overall approach, well, you can kind of tell by interacting long enough, that said he is one of the most determined watchers and catches things pretty much everyone in here wouldn&#039;t have time to look for, the act of patrolling he can do very well, knowing the line on pressing elevated buttons, always been an issue&amp;quot;. I believe this person is fit for GP and the issues can be edged out in time. [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:20, 19 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Globe (Revocation) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hello all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have been ruminating on this for a while, and while I understand my own role in this conflict, it has been brewing for many months behind closed doors. I understand Globe has held this role (or equivalent) since almost day 1 of WO, however right now, I don&#039;t believe that Globe has either the intention or the ability to continue to act in the best interest of WO. This latest incident which has cemented my opinion on the matter is relating to attempts to micromanage the opinions of volunteers. I will detail this further along in this fairly long topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is not meant to be a spiteful attempt to remove him from a position of trust within the community, but I myself feel the trust that I have placed in Globe is no longer honoured. This stems from a pattern of behaviour that I have noticed that appears to me to be anti-community, and some are downright ridiculous:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Globe has a very strong opposition to 2FA (two-factor authentication), which is currently mandated for all foundation managed Google accounts. Globe does not have 2FA enabled currently on his on wiki account as of writing, and at the time when I changed 2FA to become a requirement for foundation Google accounts, I recall Globe saying (through channels that have since been made private to me), that he was considering motioning the board to remove requirements for 2FA. I need not explain the security risks this poses, but the attitude of &amp;quot;I have a strong enough password not to get hacked&amp;quot; really isn&#039;t sufficient, and runs a risk of compromise to users safety.&lt;br /&gt;
* I continually have the belief that Globe wants to keep control of the site, such as election of stewards, global sysops and other RfC topics under the control of the board, one of his concerns being people from less reputable communities supporting their preferred candidates who may cause problems. While I appreciate the community governance mechanisms haven&#039;t been around for long, these concerns are yet to be realised, and I&#039;ve seen evidence above on this page that these concerns have actively not happened.&lt;br /&gt;
* The latest incident is surrounding volunteer opinions, their ability to speak freely, and Globe actively trying to micromanage them. If you read [[User:Globe/Volunteer Conduct Policy]] (which is largely LLM generated), it effectively removes any ability for volunteers to speak critically on any matter. This is backed up by internal messages, where [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] said to Globe &#039;You&#039;re just trying to drag it out for some ideal behaviour that you want to be enforced on WikiOasis Volunteers&#039;, where he then responded &#039;Correct.

Hello everyone, I would like to bring light to how apparently Globe uses CheckUser permissions to check other user&#039;s information without any actual evidence, just doing CU whenever he feels &amp;quot;suspicious&amp;quot; about someone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Zippy has told Globe in an internal volunteer channel that: &amp;quot;I don&#039;t like that you randomly run checkusers on people who show no behavioral evidence of needing a check with no reason attached.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
For volunteers who has access - go [https://discord.com/channels/1299761391523205273/1494723448482693141/1503881626445152317 here] regarding about the message I am referencing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is extremely concerning as PII should be handled securely and can&#039;t be done for any reason unless there is probable reason that Cross-Wiki abuse is happening via the usage of multiple user accounts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like Zippy/other uninvolved Stewards to explain more if there is additional details regarding Globe&#039;s CU usage and Globe to explain themselves. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I genuinely believe Globe wants all the power to themselves and does not want the best for WikiOasis, as evidenced by him becoming a dictator and attempting to control volunteer&#039;s right to hold their opinions, keep the board&#039;s ability to appoint roles, and finally apparently doing CU unilaterally on seeming innocent users who has done nothing. Until Globe is completely removed from all volunteer positions, including being a Director of the WikiOasis Foundation Board, I may consider withholding information in respective volunteer channels as I cannot trust Globe since they have started arguments countless times for the dumbest reasons, alongside taking all the power to themselves and apparently doing CU on users with zero evidence and need to use it. --[[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 11:48, 23 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:This statement is concerning on many levels. {{quote|Apparently Globe uses CheckUser permissions to check other user&#039;s information without any actual evidence.}}&lt;br /&gt;
:Is simply not true. I frankly don’t use the CheckUser tool that often, and I’ve made exactly one check in the month of May. Most (90% or more) of my checks originate from the extension SuggestedInvestigations. It flags when multiple users originate from the same IP or user agent, along with a few other things like disposable emails. I don’t really look at user agents or disposable emails as warranting a check, but if I see 5 accounts with similar usernames, editing patterns, and they’re showing up in suggested investigations, yeah, I’m going to make that check. I have forgotten to place a reason in some of my checks (but they can usually be assumed to be “triggered by suggested investigations”), and for that I do apologize, but I am always willing to explain my checks to the steward team as the privacy policy allows. &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:Further,&lt;br /&gt;
:{{quote|becoming a dictator and attempting to control volunteer&#039;s right to hold their opinions}}&lt;br /&gt;
:is also untrue. For context, Fearless is upset about me calling multiple statements of his in our public server (or those of Mira/our communities) unacceptable. Some examples:&lt;br /&gt;
:“I already told the stewards that I don&#039;t want the IBW to be here from the very start... IBW is just a massive mess and jank that I dislike having to deal with&lt;br /&gt;
:Asking an established wiki community of ours if they had been banned from Mira and why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze&lt;br /&gt;
:“oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:“I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki (Italian brainrot wiki]. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
:His constant demeaning of the Italian Brainrot Wiki and honestly WO as a whole in both public spaces (and private ones, which I won’t share for his privacy) is concerning. I have no issue with him (or anyone) holding an opinion, but being constantly degrading to people who are working hard on their wiki in public spaces is not the conduct I expect from a volunteer. &lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:{{quote|keep the board&#039;s ability to appoint roles}}&lt;br /&gt;
:More lies, unfortunately. I was the first to support the motion to allow the community to directly elect stewards, global sysops, and global patrollers. I was definitely initially skeptical, but ever since the first round of votes, I’ve been in support of it because of the great turnout.

== DarkMatterMan4500 (Global Patroller) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, I am DarkMatterMan4500 from Miraheze, and I want to apply for the [[Global Patrollers]] permission here on WikiOasis, based on my experiences from Miraheze, since I have been working hard on clearing away vandalism all across the wikifarm for the [[mh:m:CVT|counter-vandalism team]] from said wikifarm. Now, I understand that some of you may have questions and concerns for me, and I&#039;ll do my best to answer them in the best way I can, so feel free to give your [[mh:allthetropes:Brutal Honesty|honest opinions]] without sugarcoating anything. I am fully aware that Global Patrollers can block users all across the WikiOasis wikis (regardless of where the [[w:WP:DISRUPT|disruption]] is taking place), delete pages, revisions, and use the basic tools, but with limited options, something that I&#039;m willing to take as a fellow editor. --[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 15:57, 18 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*{{Support|strong}} - Candidate is well known in Miraheze and known in the MH Discord as a GP that deals with vandals or CVT issues at the CVT channel. Additionally after consulting Raidarr, the candidate has some issues that can be fixed (but no red flags) and 200 edits on Meta. This is what Raidarr said about DMM: &amp;quot;He has problems identifying and staying on the line and the overall approach, well, you can kind of tell by interacting long enough, that said he is one of the most determined watchers and catches things pretty much everyone in here wouldn&#039;t have time to look for, the act of patrolling he can do very well, knowing the line on pressing elevated buttons, always been an issue&amp;quot;.

&lt;br /&gt;
== Globe (Revocation) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hello all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have been ruminating on this for a while, and while I understand my own role in this conflict, it has been brewing for many months behind closed doors. I understand Globe has held this role (or equivalent) since almost day 1 of WO, however right now, I don&#039;t believe that Globe has either the intention or the ability to continue to act in the best interest of WO. This latest incident which has cemented my opinion on the matter is relating to attempts to micromanage the opinions of volunteers. I will detail this further along in this fairly long topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is not meant to be a spiteful attempt to remove him from a position of trust within the community, but I myself feel the trust that I have placed in Globe is no longer honoured. This stems from a pattern of behaviour that I have noticed that appears to me to be anti-community, and some are downright ridiculous:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Globe has a very strong opposition to 2FA (two-factor authentication), which is currently mandated for all foundation managed Google accounts. Globe does not have 2FA enabled currently on his on wiki account as of writing, and at the time when I changed 2FA to become a requirement for foundation Google accounts, I recall Globe saying (through channels that have since been made private to me), that he was considering motioning the board to remove requirements for 2FA. I need not explain the security risks this poses, but the attitude of &amp;quot;I have a strong enough password not to get hacked&amp;quot; really isn&#039;t sufficient, and runs a risk of compromise to users safety.&lt;br /&gt;
* I continually have the belief that Globe wants to keep control of the site, such as election of stewards, global sysops and other RfC topics under the control of the board, one of his concerns being people from less reputable communities supporting their preferred candidates who may cause problems. While I appreciate the community governance mechanisms haven&#039;t been around for long, these concerns are yet to be realised, and I&#039;ve seen evidence above on this page that these concerns have actively not happened.&lt;br /&gt;
* The latest incident is surrounding volunteer opinions, their ability to speak freely, and Globe actively trying to micromanage them. If you read [[User:Globe/Volunteer Conduct Policy]] (which is largely LLM generated), it effectively removes any ability for volunteers to speak critically on any matter. This is backed up by internal messages, where [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] said to Globe &#039;You&#039;re just trying to drag it out for some ideal behaviour that you want to be enforced on WikiOasis Volunteers&#039;, where he then responded &#039;Correct. You&#039;ve got it&#039;. The belief that volunteers represent the foundation is entirely unfounded, has not been approved by the board to my knowledge, and these roles are entirely community managed and shouldn&#039;t be micromanaged by the foundation, this goes entirely against the point of the roles being appointed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to turn this into a big spat, because it&#039;s not worth the time, but right now the constant internal arguments provide an environment I cannot work in, to the point that I am planning to distance myself from the project entirely (or at least to tech only until someone can takeover those responsiblities) when these weekly arguments are happening, it contributes to me becoming ever more burnt out, and generally makes me not enjoy working on the project in the way that I did. I am ending up pulled away from tech to defend my peers when their conduct is continually being pointed out by Globe as unacceptable for various reasons which to me and others seem unacceptable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate this is very much the nuclear option, but right now I don&#039;t see Globe&#039;s involvement in the steward team to be contributing positively to the overall success of this project, and instead focuses on micromanaging his peers as though he has superiority over them, and continually picking flaws with how they speak in public channels. The approach of those in the private channels must only ever speak positively of WO and the wikis that are hosted on it is not the right one in my belief, and Globe is pushing this so hard that it comes at the expense of the overall wellbeing of the project, to the point that it is actively harming it. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 07:14, 23 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Discussion ===&lt;br /&gt;
*{{support}}. I, too, have been pondering on this for a while, and Globe&#039;s involvement in the project is very much hurting, rather than helping. Constant spats with Zippy, constant dictatorial actions. I&#039;m done with Globe, and I think it&#039;s his time to move on from the project. [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 20:18, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{support}} - [[User:FNFGamer718|FNFGamer718]] ([[User talk:FNFGamer718|talk]]) 20:23, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{support}} - No offense, but he has to go and move on. A lot of times Globe and Zippy are usually arguing at each other for something that is just nonsensical. Additionally, the ideal he wants to be enforced is just dictatorial and delusional, everyone has human rights, and one of our rights is the right to have our own opinion. [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 20:28, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{Support|weak}} Well, I haven&#039;t been aware of Globe&#039;s recent conduct, but upon seeing this, I can actually understand why, and am actually quite troubled by the fact that Globe apparently wants to motion in removing the requirements for 2FA, when that&#039;s the most basic part about security. I mean, who in their right minds would want to get their accounts hacked regularly? ----[[User:DarkMatterMan4500|DarkMatterMan4500]] ([[User talk:DarkMatterMan4500|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/DarkMatterMan4500|contribs]]) 20:32, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:I plan on making a larger statement later, but the part about me motioning away requirements for 2FA on Google accounts did not happen. I have 2FA enabled on my Discord account and, if a requirement for volunteers to have 2FA on their on-wiki account passes, I would enable it here as well. I have already done so to comply with such a requirement on testwiki.wiki. I don&#039;t have it currently enabled because my authenticator is only on my phone, so I would be unable to access WO when I don&#039;t have my phone on me and am instead using my laptop. For the record, I do believe in account security and strong/unique passwords. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 20:38, 22 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

However, I hold higher respect for people such as Raidarr whom has given me priceless advice before that I couldn&#039;t get elsewhere until recently this year. Though, for professionalism, while I would say I treat it similarly as respecting people, but it depends on where and context.&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a public space, doesn&#039;t matter if it&#039;s on or off wiki (such as WikiOasis Discord Server at #general), I&#039;ll try to be a bit professional in my responses and be more patient for individuals who isn&#039;t being incredibly disrespectful (like calling volunteers nazis, for example).&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a friend group, then I won&#039;t be professional at all, no need to be stiff when you don&#039;t have to.&lt;br /&gt;

# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair.

# I&#039;ve mulled over this for a few days, and I think I&#039;m going to land at a {{oppose|Weak}}. I have a few concerns regarding Fearless&#039;s previous interactions with some of our communities and unfamiliarity with our processes. In the previous request, it was mentioned that despite Fearless&#039;s lack of experience on-wiki, they are still familiar with how the wiki operates due to them being active on the Discord. A few things have surfaced over the past few days/weeks that make me question this philosophy. I&#039;ll name a few:&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking stewards to close Raidarr&#039;s after it had been open for just three days, simply because of the vote count&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking one of our communities why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze, and specifically inquiring about whether or not they were banned from Mira (they were not)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Making comments in the Miraheze Discord server about how &amp;quot;oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:# Taking it upon themselves to make statements on behalf of WikiOasis in semi-public spaces, such as &amp;quot;I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:These are just a few that I recalled when writing this, but more have appeared through our interactions that have given me pause to support a request for global sysop if this is what they have done &#039;&#039;without&#039;&#039; any additional tools. All of these together, combined with no on-wiki experience anywhere that I am aware of and the extremely vague response to my question, concerns me. If elected, I would encourage Fearless to familiarize themselves with more of our inter-workings and ask frequent questions of the team before acting. -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 21:09, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I suspect the third one is partially my fault because I have expressed the thought that oasis for its much more informal structure and younger management can act as a sort of &#039;proving ground&#039; to consider at Miraheze, but a not so great training academy is a poor way to phrase that and it is by no means anything official. I will concur the need to be far more careful in open statements, especially 2 and 4. 1 is a procedural quirk I assume has already been corrected. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 12:01, 30 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Sapphire Jack (Global Administrator) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, I’m Sapphire Jack, the owner of the largest wiki on this platform, the Italian Brainrot Wiki. I’d like to run for global administrator so I can gain perspective on how different wikis are managed and gain experience working with different moderation teams, as well as overall helping the platform grow as a whole. If you have any questions about me or my prior experiences, please let me know. [[User:Sapphire Jack|Sapphire Jack]] ([[User talk:Sapphire Jack|talk]]) 03:26, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you currently do that requires Global Administrator capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# How do you feel the role of a Global Administrator fits in/complements existing local administration teams without so to speak &amp;quot;cramping their style&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
# (shamelessly stolen from raidarr) Do you believe you have made mistakes on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# Global Administrators are responsible for wiki creations, how would you go about approaching the following requests, including additional action you may take following the acceptance/denial of each request?&lt;br /&gt;
#* A well known troublemaker on the platform decides to request a new wiki, describing it as a new &amp;quot;uncensored encyclopedia on politics&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user decides to request a wiki saying that they are going to &amp;quot;create their version of Wikipedia&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user requests a wiki and fills the request form with racial slurs and abuse towards our staff members?&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:# I’m an experienced moderator, and would like to be able to help moderate other wikis, while ensuring everyone follows global policy. Also, on my current wiki, there is a frequent amount of users requiring to get globally locked for underage/breaking other global rules. I could deal with those global locks entirely, so other global admins/stewards could spend their energy elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Global admins try to help deal with major vandals, however, each wiki has its own structure, style, and way of running. Aside from enforcing global policies, we don’t need to interfere with that.&lt;br /&gt;
:# I don’t believe I’ve made any mistakes on the platform so far, and after taking a poll, the users on my wiki agree that I’m the “Best owner ever.” &lt;br /&gt;
:# For the first example, I would simply deny the request, no further action needed. For the second example, I would also deny the request: we don’t need a forked wikipedia. However, for the third example, I would not only deny the request, I would also Glock them and ask a Steward to run an alt check to see if they’re an alt of an existing vandal.&lt;br /&gt;

*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;{{oppose}} submitting an opposition. I strongly encourage the candidate to explore alternative ways to contribute that do not involve advanced permissions before requesting any such permissions. Furthermore, I do not currently feel comfortable granting advanced permissions to someone who is not well-known within the community without demonstrating the necessary skills and trust required for these permissions. Being a moderator alone does not justify sufficient experience to warrant the level of expertise needed for these permissions, as there is much more involved than merely understanding the fundamentals of moderating MediaWiki functions and knowing how to utilize the tools. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 16:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

*{{support|weak}}: ultimately I don&#039;t see a major difference between your credibility and that of the other GS/Stews. I think there&#039;s room here to coach and grow. The work on IBW — wrangling a fairly substantial number of misbehaving children without leaving it as someone else&#039;s problem — is definitely something in your favour, however I don&#039;t know whether GS is the way to go for this. I commend you throwing your hat into the ring. I implore to you that if this request does succeed that you take things slowly and learn how they work before doing anything drastic, but generally I don&#039;t have any significant concerns beyond the general lack of experience, although it&#039;s not incomparable to what already exists on the team, and I&#039;d hope you could shape into a fairly active contributor globally with the right guidance, but I won&#039;t jump the gun there.

*{{oppose}} I&#039;m not thrilled about them canvassing. They also show a lack of knowledge of what the duties of a global SYOSP are, which leaves me to oppose this request. I&#039;d strongly advise the candidate to find other ways to help that don&#039;t require global rights; perhaps in the future they can be reconsidered. And coached on how to use the tools if they can show maturity in the future. I don&#039;t find them being an &amp;quot;admin of Italian brainrot&amp;quot; a sufficient reason to be a global admin, as there is way more to it than just being a local admin and other tools to learn how to use that a global admin has access to. Their reasoning is also not convincing enough as to why they need These tools, IMHO, --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 17:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*going to go with an {{oppose}} here, while I applaud your efforts and acknowledge you&#039;ve been helpful but I personally believe the GA toolset is too advanced for someone who has little presence outside their own wiki.

* This is not a voting comment but I will say that Sapphire Jack has a very thankless role with experience that is unique even among the current crew of global volunteers. It takes real effort to keep a community with heavy appeal to rambunctious children in order, and to do that actively. And Sapphire is at the top of that list, not just any moderator on the team. Now I address Sapphire directly. I think there is reasonable concern that a global role like this requires somewhat different skills from maintaining a single, although large community. These are things I&#039;m sure you could learn and your second answer is very promising. I think people would be generally more comfortable with you as Global Patroller where you can be included in global affairs and get an idea how they work/prove that capability, and then expand to larger access. But relative to the current volunteers I don&#039;t think your competence is out of range for advancing straight to Global Administrator. Regardless what you get, I wish you the best of luck and I&#039;m pleased you&#039;re looking into something new like this. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 22:19, 14 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;I&#039;m going to drop a {{support}} here. Your work handling the challenge that IBW can has been impressive and you&#039;ve always seemed easy to work with.

G&#039;day, my name is Vwregewrrergrge, though you&#039;re welcome to call me VWR. I am a bureaucrat on the largest wiki on WikiOasis (Italian Brainrot Wiki), and a Miraheze contributor with experience across multiple wikis. I actively maintain and contribute to several wikis including the Prehistoric Wiki, the Minecraft Wiki, and the Mathematics Wiki. As it stands, WikiOasis currently has no global patrollers, and I believe that is a gap worth filling. I am volunteering for this role out of genuine concern for the safety and quality of the platform, and to properly support staff in keeping it safe. Underage users are a serious issue on WikiOasis, they return repeatedly despite being blocked, and having a dedicated global patroller reporting directly to staff would make handling these cases significantly easier. On average, a blocked underage user creates around 5 alt accounts, and I have experience detecting them through patterns in writing style, user page formatting, and also grammar. I take this application seriously and I hope it is received the same way, and I am not trying to act like a security guard, what is this nonsense, Ii anyone is willing to guide me through any responsibilities associated with the role, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. [[User:Vwregewrrergrge|VWR]] ([[User talk:Vwregewrrergrge|talk]]) 2:40, 17 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*{{oppose}}. You have solicited PII from suspected underage users. That is simply inappropriate, and this is a matter of public record. [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 14:57, 17 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:I understand where you&#039;re coming from, I shouldn&#039;t have asked for that information and I won&#039;t do it again, I now know the right way to handle it. Sorry. [[User:Vwregewrrergrge|Vwregewrrergrge]] ([[User talk:Vwregewrrergrge|talk]]) 15:02, 17 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*{{oppose|strong}} users should not be acting as vigilantes, especially not on the matter of child safety. They should report it to safety and not be soliciting their personal information through the platform. To be frank I am surprised that more action was not taken at the time of the incident, however this is definitely a no from me. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 15:01, 17 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
*:Understood, and I respect your concern, looking back I should have immediately reported it to staff rather than taking matters into my own hands, and I genuinely regret that. This role is exactly what would stop me from ever needing to do that again since I&#039;d have the proper tools and authority to handle it the right way. There were some mistakes I have made, do not hate me for that. There are no Global patrollers.

*::The fact there are no global patrollers is not a reason to support your request. You have been acting as a vigilante against underage users, and then proceed to list that as a reason why you want the bit.

*:::You&#039;re right, I don&#039;t need the tools to report, but having them would let me help WikiOasis much faster and more effectively, and that&#039;s genuinely all I want to do, along with helping with pages, stubs, technical problems if necessary, I just want to provide WikiOasis with help.

{{discussion top|outcome= This request is successful, gaining the required 5 !votes and support ratio. Globe&#039;s concerns have been considered, and I too would like to encourage the candidate to ask a lot of questions to Stewards when in doubt.

Hey, I&#039;d like to run for Global Administrator so I can assist in CVT-related matters and be able to help the platform on-wiki as well rather then only being able to help on the Discord Server, while being able to have a chance to be mentored by someone extremely experienced like Raidarr and grow my experience &amp;amp; judgement as well. Although I don&#039;t have many edits on Meta, I&#039;ve been in the WikiOasis Discord Server for months now and have assisted in moderation, in addition to helping Skywiki getting merged to WikiOasis. All questions are welcomed and I&#039;ll try my best to answer them in a timely order.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for your consideration, --[[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 13:30, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe that community facing users such as Stewards and Global sysops need to be professional when interacting with community members on-wiki and off-wiki? Does it matter with whom you are speaking to? -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 13:44, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I believe respect is for everyone (that is being reasonable) regardless of whatever position they are in or anywhere. However, I hold higher respect for people such as Raidarr whom has given me priceless advice before that I couldn&#039;t get elsewhere until recently this year. Though, for professionalism, while I would say I treat it similarly as respecting people, but it depends on where and context.&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a public space, doesn&#039;t matter if it&#039;s on or off wiki (such as WikiOasis Discord Server at #general), I&#039;ll try to be a bit professional in my responses and be more patient for individuals who isn&#039;t being incredibly disrespectful (like calling volunteers nazis, for example).&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a friend group, then I won&#039;t be professional at all, no need to be stiff when you don&#039;t have to.&lt;br /&gt;
:I hope I have addressed your question appropriately. Thank you. --[[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 14:06, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Discussion ===&lt;br /&gt;
# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair. Food for thought, --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 12:05, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
# {{support}} I would like to begin by stating that he has addressed my inquiries regarding his candidacy on Discord, and I must say that his responses were quite close to what I was seeking.

# I&#039;ve mulled over this for a few days, and I think I&#039;m going to land at a {{oppose|Weak}}. I have a few concerns regarding Fearless&#039;s previous interactions with some of our communities and unfamiliarity with our processes. In the previous request, it was mentioned that despite Fearless&#039;s lack of experience on-wiki, they are still familiar with how the wiki operates due to them being active on the Discord. A few things have surfaced over the past few days/weeks that make me question this philosophy. I&#039;ll name a few:&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking stewards to close Raidarr&#039;s after it had been open for just three days, simply because of the vote count&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking one of our communities why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze, and specifically inquiring about whether or not they were banned from Mira (they were not)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Making comments in the Miraheze Discord server about how &amp;quot;oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:# Taking it upon themselves to make statements on behalf of WikiOasis in semi-public spaces, such as &amp;quot;I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:These are just a few that I recalled when writing this, but more have appeared through our interactions that have given me pause to support a request for global sysop if this is what they have done &#039;&#039;without&#039;&#039; any additional tools. All of these together, combined with no on-wiki experience anywhere that I am aware of and the extremely vague response to my question, concerns me. If elected, I would encourage Fearless to familiarize themselves with more of our inter-workings and ask frequent questions of the team before acting. -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 21:09, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I suspect the third one is partially my fault because I have expressed the thought that oasis for its much more informal structure and younger management can act as a sort of &#039;proving ground&#039; to consider at Miraheze, but a not so great training academy is a poor way to phrase that and it is by no means anything official. I will concur the need to be far more careful in open statements, especially 2 and 4. 1 is a procedural quirk I assume has already been corrected. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 12:01, 30 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: Going to go with a {{support|weak}}, I have had ok interactions with Fearless but I understand there have been some issues. Not sure I can comment too much, mostly because I&#039;m the new kid on the block. [[User:Crystalite13|Crystalite13]] ([[User talk:Crystalite13|talk]]) 21:26, 30 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, I’m Sapphire Jack, the owner of the largest wiki on this platform, the Italian Brainrot Wiki. I’d like to run for global administrator so I can gain perspective on how different wikis are managed and gain experience working with different moderation teams, as well as overall helping the platform grow as a whole.

# What do you currently do that requires Global Administrator capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# How do you feel the role of a Global Administrator fits in/complements existing local administration teams without so to speak &amp;quot;cramping their style&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
# (shamelessly stolen from raidarr) Do you believe you have made mistakes on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# Global Administrators are responsible for wiki creations, how would you go about approaching the following requests, including additional action you may take following the acceptance/denial of each request?&lt;br /&gt;
#* A well known troublemaker on the platform decides to request a new wiki, describing it as a new &amp;quot;uncensored encyclopedia on politics&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user decides to request a wiki saying that they are going to &amp;quot;create their version of Wikipedia&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user requests a wiki and fills the request form with racial slurs and abuse towards our staff members?&lt;br /&gt;

:# I’m an experienced moderator, and would like to be able to help moderate other wikis, while ensuring everyone follows global policy. Also, on my current wiki, there is a frequent amount of users requiring to get globally locked for underage/breaking other global rules. I could deal with those global locks entirely, so other global admins/stewards could spend their energy elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Global admins try to help deal with major vandals, however, each wiki has its own structure, style, and way of running. Aside from enforcing global policies, we don’t need to interfere with that.&lt;br /&gt;
:# I don’t believe I’ve made any mistakes on the platform so far, and after taking a poll, the users on my wiki agree that I’m the “Best owner ever.” &lt;br /&gt;
:# For the first example, I would simply deny the request, no further action needed. For the second example, I would also deny the request: we don’t need a forked wikipedia. However, for the third example, I would not only deny the request, I would also Glock them and ask a Steward to run an alt check to see if they’re an alt of an existing vandal.&lt;br /&gt;

*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;{{oppose}} submitting an opposition. I strongly encourage the candidate to explore alternative ways to contribute that do not involve advanced permissions before requesting any such permissions. Furthermore, I do not currently feel comfortable granting advanced permissions to someone who is not well-known within the community without demonstrating the necessary skills and trust required for these permissions. Being a moderator alone does not justify sufficient experience to warrant the level of expertise needed for these permissions, as there is much more involved than merely understanding the fundamentals of moderating MediaWiki functions and knowing how to utilize the tools. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 16:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I believe this is the steward duty, rather than a pre emptive full strike since the alternative is people just don&#039;t offer reasoning at all, like what actually happened. I do agree the initial position was rather nonsensical. Now &#039;collapsing&#039; this section so it is less of a confusing read later. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 22:08, 14 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*{{support|weak}}: ultimately I don&#039;t see a major difference between your credibility and that of the other GS/Stews. I think there&#039;s room here to coach and grow. The work on IBW — wrangling a fairly substantial number of misbehaving children without leaving it as someone else&#039;s problem — is definitely something in your favour, however I don&#039;t know whether GS is the way to go for this. I commend you throwing your hat into the ring. I implore to you that if this request does succeed that you take things slowly and learn how they work before doing anything drastic, but generally I don&#039;t have any significant concerns beyond the general lack of experience, although it&#039;s not incomparable to what already exists on the team, and I&#039;d hope you could shape into a fairly active contributor globally with the right guidance, but I won&#039;t jump the gun there.

*{{oppose}} I&#039;m not thrilled by their recent canvassing. They also show a lack of knowledge of what the duties of a global SYOSP are, which leaves me to oppose this request. I&#039;d strongly advise the candidate to find other ways to help that don&#039;t require global rights; perhaps in the future they can be reconsidered. And coached on how to use the tools if they can show maturity in the future. I don&#039;t find them being an &amp;quot;admin of Italian brainrot&amp;quot; a sufficient reason to be a global admin, as there is way more to it than just being a local admin and other tools to learn how to use that a global admin has access to. Their reasoning is also not convincing enough as to why they need These tools, IMHO, --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 17:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*going to go with an {{oppose}} here, while I applaud your efforts and acknowledge you&#039;ve been helpful but I personally believe the GA toolset is too advanced for someone who has little presence outside their own wiki.

* This is not a voting comment but I will say that Sapphire Jack has a very thankless role with experience that is unique even among the current crew of global volunteers. It takes real effort to keep a community with heavy appeal to rambunctious children in order, and to do that actively. And Sapphire is at the top of that list, not just any moderator on the team. Now I address Sapphire directly. I think there is reasonable concern that a global role like this requires somewhat different skills from maintaining a single, although large community. These are things I&#039;m sure you could learn and your second answer is very promising. I think people would be generally more comfortable with you as Global Patroller where you can be included in global affairs and get an idea how they work/prove that capability, and then expand to larger access. But relative to the current volunteers I don&#039;t think your competence is out of range for advancing straight to Global Administrator. Regardless what you get, I wish you the best of luck and I&#039;m pleased you&#039;re looking into something new like this. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 22:19, 14 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;lt;s&amp;gt;I&#039;m going to drop a {{support}} here. Your work handling the challenge that IBW can has been impressive and you&#039;ve always seemed easy to work with.

*: Changing to {{oppose}} for a few reasons. I&#039;ve monitored a few discussions between stewards and the candidate and they seem to show a fundamental lack of understanding of what a global administrator does and what they should not do.

G&#039;day, my name is Vwregewrrergrge, though you&#039;re welcome to call me VWR. I am a bureaucrat on the largest wiki on WikiOasis (Italian Brainrot Wiki), and a Miraheze contributor with experience across multiple wikis. I actively maintain and contribute to several wikis including the Prehistoric Wiki, the Minecraft Wiki, and the Mathematics Wiki. As it stands, WikiOasis currently has no global patrollers, and I believe that is a gap worth filling. I am volunteering for this role out of genuine concern for the safety and quality of the platform, and to properly support staff in keeping it safe. Underage users are a serious issue on WikiOasis, they return repeatedly despite being blocked, and having a dedicated global patroller reporting directly to staff would make handling these cases significantly easier. On average, a blocked underage user creates around 5 alt accounts, and I have experience detecting them through patterns in writing style, user page formatting, and also grammar. I take this application seriously and I hope it is received the same way, and I am not trying to act like a security guard, what is this nonsense, Ii anyone is willing to guide me through any responsibilities associated with the role, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you. [[User:Vwregewrrergrge|VWR]] ([[User talk:Vwregewrrergrge|talk]]) 2:40, 17 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

*{{oppose|strong}} users should not be acting as vigilantes, especially not on the matter of child safety.

*:Understood, and I respect your concern, looking back I should have immediately reported it to staff rather than taking matters into my own hands, and I genuinely regret that.

Hey, I&#039;d like to run for Global Administrator so I can assist in CVT-related matters and be able to help the platform on-wiki as well rather then only being able to help on the Discord Server, while being able to have a chance to be mentored by someone extremely experienced like Raidarr and grow my experience &amp;amp; judgement as well. Although I don&#039;t have many edits on Meta, I&#039;ve been in the WikiOasis Discord Server for months now and have assisted in moderation, in addition to helping Skywiki getting merged to WikiOasis. All questions are welcomed and I&#039;ll try my best to answer them in a timely order.&lt;br /&gt;

# Do you believe that community facing users such as Stewards and Global sysops need to be professional when interacting with community members on-wiki and off-wiki? Does it matter with whom you are speaking to? -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 13:44, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I believe respect is for everyone (that is being reasonable) regardless of whatever position they are in or anywhere. However, I hold higher respect for people such as Raidarr whom has given me priceless advice before that I couldn&#039;t get elsewhere until recently this year. Though, for professionalism, while I would say I treat it similarly as respecting people, but it depends on where and context.&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a public space, doesn&#039;t matter if it&#039;s on or off wiki (such as WikiOasis Discord Server at #general), I&#039;ll try to be a bit professional in my responses and be more patient for individuals who isn&#039;t being incredibly disrespectful (like calling volunteers nazis, for example).&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a friend group, then I won&#039;t be professional at all, no need to be stiff when you don&#039;t have to.&lt;br /&gt;

# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair.

# I&#039;ve mulled over this for a few days, and I think I&#039;m going to land at a {{oppose|Weak}}. I have a few concerns regarding Fearless&#039;s previous interactions with some of our communities and unfamiliarity with our processes. In the previous request, it was mentioned that despite Fearless&#039;s lack of experience on-wiki, they are still familiar with how the wiki operates due to them being active on the Discord. A few things have surfaced over the past few days/weeks that make me question this philosophy. I&#039;ll name a few:&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking stewards to close Raidarr&#039;s after it had been open for just three days, simply because of the vote count&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking one of our communities why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze, and specifically inquiring about whether or not they were banned from Mira (they were not)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Making comments in the Miraheze Discord server about how &amp;quot;oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:# Taking it upon themselves to make statements on behalf of WikiOasis in semi-public spaces, such as &amp;quot;I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:These are just a few that I recalled when writing this, but more have appeared through our interactions that have given me pause to support a request for global sysop if this is what they have done &#039;&#039;without&#039;&#039; any additional tools. All of these together, combined with no on-wiki experience anywhere that I am aware of and the extremely vague response to my question, concerns me. If elected, I would encourage Fearless to familiarize themselves with more of our inter-workings and ask frequent questions of the team before acting. -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 21:09, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I suspect the third one is partially my fault because I have expressed the thought that oasis for its much more informal structure and younger management can act as a sort of &#039;proving ground&#039; to consider at Miraheze, but a not so great training academy is a poor way to phrase that and it is by no means anything official. I will concur the need to be far more careful in open statements, especially 2 and 4. 1 is a procedural quirk I assume has already been corrected. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 12:01, 30 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Sapphire Jack (Global Administrator) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, I’m Sapphire Jack, the owner of the largest wiki on this platform, the Italian Brainrot Wiki. I’d like to run for global administrator so I can gain perspective on how different wikis are managed and gain experience working with different moderation teams, as well as overall helping the platform grow as a whole. If you have any questions about me or my prior experiences, please let me know. [[User:Sapphire Jack|Sapphire Jack]] ([[User talk:Sapphire Jack|talk]]) 03:26, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you currently do that requires Global Administrator capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# How do you feel the role of a Global Administrator fits in/complements existing local administration teams without so to speak &amp;quot;cramping their style&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
# (shamelessly stolen from raidarr) Do you believe you have made mistakes on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# Global Administrators are responsible for wiki creations, how would you go about approaching the following requests, including additional action you may take following the acceptance/denial of each request?&lt;br /&gt;
#* A well known troublemaker on the platform decides to request a new wiki, describing it as a new &amp;quot;uncensored encyclopedia on politics&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user decides to request a wiki saying that they are going to &amp;quot;create their version of Wikipedia&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user requests a wiki and fills the request form with racial slurs and abuse towards our staff members?&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:# I’m an experienced moderator, and would like to be able to help moderate other wikis, while ensuring everyone follows global policy. Also, on my current wiki, there is a frequent amount of users requiring to get globally locked for underage/breaking other global rules. I could deal with those global locks entirely, so other global admins/stewards could spend their energy elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Global admins try to help deal with major vandals, however, each wiki has its own structure, style, and way of running. Aside from enforcing global policies, we don’t need to interfere with that.&lt;br /&gt;
:# I don’t believe I’ve made any mistakes on the platform so far, and after taking a poll, the users on my wiki agree that I’m the “Best owner ever.” &lt;br /&gt;
:# For the first example, I would simply deny the request, no further action needed. For the second example, I would also deny the request: we don’t need a forked wikipedia. However, for the third example, I would not only deny the request, I would also Glock them and ask a Steward to run an alt check to see if they’re an alt of an existing vandal.&lt;br /&gt;

I strongly encourage the candidate to explore alternative ways to contribute that do not involve advanced permissions before requesting any such permissions. Furthermore, I do not currently feel comfortable granting advanced permissions to someone who is not well-known within the community without demonstrating the necessary skills and trust required for these permissions. Being a moderator alone does not justify sufficient experience to warrant the level of expertise needed for these permissions, as there is much more involved than merely understanding the fundamentals of moderating MediaWiki functions and knowing how to utilize the tools. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 16:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{support|weak}}: ultimately I don&#039;t see a major difference between your credibility and that of the other GS/Stews. I think there&#039;s room here to coach and grow. The work on IBW — wrangling a fairly substantial number of misbehaving children without leaving it as someone else&#039;s problem — is definitely something in your favour, however I don&#039;t know whether GS is the way to go for this. I commend you throwing your hat into the ring. I implore to you that if this request does succeed that you take things slowly and learn how they work before doing anything drastic, but generally I don&#039;t have any significant concerns beyond the general lack of experience, although it&#039;s not incomparable to what already exists on the team, and I&#039;d hope you could shape into a fairly active contributor globally with the right guidance, but I won&#039;t jump the gun there.

Hey, I’m Sapphire Jack, the owner of the largest wiki on this platform, the Italian Brainrot Wiki. I’d like to run for global administrator so I can gain perspective on how different wikis are managed and gain experience working with different moderation teams, as well as overall helping the platform grow as a whole.

I strongly encourage the candidate to explore alternative ways to contribute that do not involve advanced permissions before requesting any such permissions. Furthermore, I do not currently feel comfortable granting advanced permissions to someone who is not well-known within the community without demonstrating the necessary skills and trust required for these permissions. Being a moderator alone does not justify sufficient experience to warrant the level of expertise needed for these permissions, as there is much more involved than merely understanding the fundamentals of moderating MediaWiki functions and knowing how to utilize the tools. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 16:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, I&#039;d like to run for Global Administrator so I can assist in CVT-related matters and be able to help the platform on-wiki as well rather then only being able to help on the Discord Server, while being able to have a chance to be mentored by someone extremely experienced like Raidarr and grow my experience &amp;amp; judgement as well. Although I don&#039;t have many edits on Meta, I&#039;ve been in the WikiOasis Discord Server for months now and have assisted in moderation, in addition to helping Skywiki getting merged to WikiOasis. All questions are welcomed and I&#039;ll try my best to answer them in a timely order.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe that community facing users such as Stewards and Global sysops need to be professional when interacting with community members on-wiki and off-wiki? Does it matter with whom you are speaking to? -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 13:44, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I believe respect is for everyone (that is being reasonable) regardless of whatever position they are in or anywhere. However, I hold higher respect for people such as Raidarr whom has given me priceless advice before that I couldn&#039;t get elsewhere until recently this year. Though, for professionalism, while I would say I treat it similarly as respecting people, but it depends on where and context.&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a public space, doesn&#039;t matter if it&#039;s on or off wiki (such as WikiOasis Discord Server at #general), I&#039;ll try to be a bit professional in my responses and be more patient for individuals who isn&#039;t being incredibly disrespectful (like calling volunteers nazis, for example).&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a friend group, then I won&#039;t be professional at all, no need to be stiff when you don&#039;t have to.&lt;br /&gt;

# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair.

Hey, I&#039;d like to run for Global Administrator so I can assist in CVT-related matters and be able to help the platform on-wiki as well rather then only being able to help on the Discord Server, while being able to have a chance to be mentored by someone extremely experienced like Raidarr and grow my experience &amp;amp; judgement as well.

# Do you believe that community facing users such as Stewards and Global sysops need to be professional when interacting with community members on-wiki and off-wiki? Does it matter with whom you are speaking to? -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 13:44, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I believe respect is for everyone (that is being reasonable) regardless of whatever position they are in or anywhere. However, I hold higher respect for people such as Raidarr whom has given me priceless advice before that I couldn&#039;t get elsewhere until recently this year. Though, for professionalism, while I would say I treat it similarly as respecting people, but it depends on where and context.&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a public space, doesn&#039;t matter if it&#039;s on or off wiki (such as WikiOasis Discord Server at #general), I&#039;ll try to be a bit professional in my responses and be more patient for individuals who isn&#039;t being incredibly disrespectful (like calling volunteers nazis, for example).&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a friend group, then I won&#039;t be professional at all, no need to be stiff when you don&#039;t have to.&lt;br /&gt;

# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair.

# I&#039;ve mulled over this for a few days, and I think I&#039;m going to land at a {{oppose|Weak}}. I have a few concerns regarding Fearless&#039;s previous interactions with some of our communities and unfamiliarity with our processes. In the previous request, it was mentioned that despite Fearless&#039;s lack of experience on-wiki, they are still familiar with how the wiki operates due to them being active on the Discord. A few things have surfaced over the past few days/weeks that make me question this philosophy. I&#039;ll name a few:&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking stewards to close Raidarr&#039;s after it had been open for just three days, simply because of the vote count&lt;br /&gt;
:# Asking one of our communities why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze, and specifically inquiring about whether or not they were banned from Mira (they were not)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Making comments in the Miraheze Discord server about how &amp;quot;oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:# Taking it upon themselves to make statements on behalf of WikiOasis in semi-public spaces, such as &amp;quot;I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:These are just a few that I recalled when writing this, but more have appeared through our interactions that have given me pause to support a request for global sysop if this is what they have done &#039;&#039;without&#039;&#039; any additional tools. All of these together, combined with no on-wiki experience anywhere that I am aware of and the extremely vague response to my question, concerns me. If elected, I would encourage Fearless to familiarize themselves with more of our inter-workings and ask frequent questions of the team before acting. -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 21:09, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I suspect the third one is partially my fault because I have expressed the thought that oasis for its much more informal structure and younger management can act as a sort of &#039;proving ground&#039; to consider at Miraheze, but a not so great training academy is a poor way to phrase that and it is by no means anything official. I will concur the need to be far more careful in open statements, especially 2 and 4. 1 is a procedural quirk I assume has already been corrected. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 12:01, 30 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, I’m Sapphire Jack, the owner of the largest wiki on this platform, the Italian Brainrot Wiki. I’d like to run for global administrator so I can gain perspective on how different wikis are managed and gain experience working with different moderation teams, as well as overall helping the platform grow as a whole.

# What do you currently do that requires Global Administrator capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# How do you feel the role of a Global Administrator fits in/complements existing local administration teams without so to speak &amp;quot;cramping their style&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
# (shamelessly stolen from raidarr) Do you believe you have made mistakes on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# Global Administrators are responsible for wiki creations, how would you go about approaching the following requests, including additional action you may take following the acceptance/denial of each request?&lt;br /&gt;
#* A well known troublemaker on the platform decides to request a new wiki, describing it as a new &amp;quot;uncensored encyclopedia on politics&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user decides to request a wiki saying that they are going to &amp;quot;create their version of Wikipedia&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

:# I’m an experienced moderator, and would like to be able to help moderate other wikis, while ensuring everyone follows global policy. Also, on my current wiki, there is a frequent amount of users requiring to get globally locked for underage/breaking other global rules. I could deal with those global locks entirely, so other global admins/stewards could spend their energy elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Global admins try to help deal with major vandals, however, each wiki has its own structure, style, and way of running. Aside from enforcing global policies, we don’t need to interfere with that.&lt;br /&gt;
:# I don’t believe I’ve made any mistakes on the platform so far, and after taking a poll, the users on my wiki agree that I’m the “Best owner ever.” &lt;br /&gt;
:# For the first example, I would simply deny the request, no further action needed. For the second example, I would also deny the request: we don’t need a forked wikipedia.

# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair.

:# Asking one of our communities why they chose WikiOasis over Miraheze, and specifically inquiring about whether or not they were banned from Mira (they were not)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Making comments in the Miraheze Discord server about how &amp;quot;oasis is basically like a not so great training academy [for mira volunteers] but it works.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
:# Taking it upon themselves to make statements on behalf of WikiOasis in semi-public spaces, such as &amp;quot;I do know so I can make the comment. But WO is in no position to host such a wiki. We have zero manpower.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

== Sapphire Jack (Global Administrator) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, I’m Sapphire Jack, the owner of the largest wiki on this platform, the Italian Brainrot Wiki. I’d like to run for global administrator so I can gain perspective on how different wikis are managed and gain experience working with different moderation teams, as well as overall helping the platform grow as a whole. If you have any questions about me or my prior experiences, please let me know. [[User:Sapphire Jack|Sapphire Jack]] ([[User talk:Sapphire Jack|talk]]) 03:26, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you currently do that requires Global Administrator capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# How do you feel the role of a Global Administrator fits in/complements existing local administration teams without so to speak &amp;quot;cramping their style&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
# (shamelessly stolen from raidarr) Do you believe you have made mistakes on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# Global Administrators are responsible for wiki creations, how would you go about approaching the following requests, including additional action you may take following the acceptance/denial of each request?&lt;br /&gt;
#* A well known troublemaker on the platform decides to request a new wiki, describing it as a new &amp;quot;uncensored encyclopedia on politics&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user decides to request a wiki saying that they are going to &amp;quot;create their version of Wikipedia&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* A brand new user requests a wiki and fills the request form with racial slurs and abuse towards our staff members?&lt;br /&gt;

:# I’m an experienced moderator, and would like to be able to help moderate other wikis, while ensuring everyone follows global policy. Also, on my current wiki, there is a frequent amount of users requiring to get globally locked for underage/breaking other global rules. I could deal with those global locks entirely, so other global admins/stewards could spend their energy elsewhere.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Global admins try to help deal with major vandals, however, each wiki has its own structure, style, and way of running. Aside from enforcing global policies, we don’t need to interfere with that.&lt;br /&gt;

:# For the first example, I would simply deny the request, no further action needed. For the second example, I would also deny the request: we don’t need a forked wikipedia.

I strongly encourage the candidate to explore alternative ways to contribute that do not involve advanced permissions before requesting any such permissions. Furthermore, I do not currently feel comfortable granting advanced permissions to someone who is not well-known within the community without demonstrating the necessary skills and trust required for these permissions. Being a moderator alone does not justify sufficient experience to warrant the level of expertise needed for these permissions, as there is much more involved than merely understanding the fundamentals of moderating MediaWiki functions and knowing how to utilize the tools. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 16:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{support|weak}}: ultimately I don&#039;t see a major difference between your credibility and that of the other GS/Stews. I think there&#039;s room here to coach and grow. The work on IBW — wrangling a fairly substantial number of misbehaving children without leaving it as someone else&#039;s problem — is definitely something in your favour, however I don&#039;t know whether GS is the way to go for this. I commend you throwing your hat into the ring. I implore to you that if this request does succeed that you take things slowly and learn how they work before doing anything drastic, but generally I don&#039;t have any significant concerns beyond the general lack of experience, although it&#039;s not incomparable to what already exists on the team, and I&#039;d hope you could shape into a fairly active contributor globally with the right guidance, but I won&#039;t jump the gun there.

Hey, I&#039;d like to run for Global Administrator so I can assist in CVT-related matters and be able to help the platform on-wiki as well rather then only being able to help on the Discord Server, while being able to have a chance to be mentored by someone extremely experienced like Raidarr and grow my experience &amp;amp; judgement as well. Although I don&#039;t have many edits on Meta, I&#039;ve been in the WikiOasis Discord Server for months now and have assisted in moderation, in addition to helping Skywiki getting merged to WikiOasis.

:# I don’t believe I’ve made any mistakes on the platform so far, and after taking a poll, the users on my wiki agree that I’m the “Best owner ever.” &lt;br /&gt;
:# For the first example, I would simply deny the request, no further action needed. For the second example, I would also deny the request: we don’t need a forked wikipedia. However, for the third example, I would not only deny the request, I would also Glock them and ask a Steward to run an alt check to see if they’re an alt of an existing vandal.&lt;br /&gt;

{{oppose}} submitting an opposition. I strongly encourage the candidate to explore alternative ways to contribute that do not involve advanced permissions before requesting any such permissions. Furthermore, I do not currently feel comfortable granting advanced permissions to someone who is not well-known within the community without demonstrating the necessary skills and trust required for these permissions. Being a moderator alone does not justify sufficient experience to warrant the level of expertise needed for these permissions, as there is much more involved than merely understanding the fundamentals of moderating MediaWiki functions and knowing how to utilize the tools. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 16:31, 12 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

== Hey coco  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hey Coco I&#039;ve got a question for you since you&#039;ve shut down your own platform I want to claim the domain  as I want to use the name for a Wiki hosting platform of my own because I kind of dislike other large Wiki hosts I just think that they&#039;re unreliable to some users (like me or any other rando) and reliable to the people that the bigwigs think are very good or awesome my version of cloud Wiki will be community focused no strings attached it will still have rules but those rules won&#039;t be as   rough on the users that don&#039;t really have another chance at success (like me who hasn&#039;t had success with my Wiki since it left MH) so if you can give me the domain name I&#039;d be honored if you want to give some terms of this deal please contact me either here or on my email thank you [[User:Lvst7070|Lvst7070]] ([[User talk:Lvst7070|talk]]) 01:20, 5 May 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Global Administrator) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, I&#039;d like to run for Global Administrator so I can assist in CVT-related matters and be able to help the platform on-wiki as well rather then only being able to help on the Discord Server, while being able to have a chance to be mentored by someone extremely experienced like Raidarr and grow my experience &amp;amp; judgement as well. Although I don&#039;t have many edits on Meta, I&#039;ve been in the WikiOasis Discord Server for months now and have assisted in moderation, in addition to helping Skywiki getting merged to WikiOasis. All questions are welcomed and I&#039;ll try my best to answer them in a timely order.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for your consideration, --[[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 13:30, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe that community facing users such as Stewards and Global sysops need to be professional when interacting with community members on-wiki and off-wiki? Does it matter with whom you are speaking to? -[[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 13:44, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I believe respect is for everyone (that is being reasonable) regardless of whatever position they are in or anywhere. However, I hold higher respect for people such as Raidarr whom has given me priceless advice before that I couldn&#039;t get elsewhere until recently this year. Though, for professionalism, while I would say I treat it similarly as respecting people, but it depends on where and context.&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a public space, doesn&#039;t matter if it&#039;s on or off wiki (such as WikiOasis Discord Server at #general), I&#039;ll try to be a bit professional in my responses and be more patient for individuals who isn&#039;t being incredibly disrespectful (like calling volunteers nazis, for example).&lt;br /&gt;
:*If I&#039;m in a friend group, then I won&#039;t be professional at all, no need to be stiff when you don&#039;t have to.&lt;br /&gt;
:I hope I have addressed your question appropriately. Thank you. --[[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 14:06, 25 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Discussion ===&lt;br /&gt;
# I will enter and say {{support}}, but other things as well. Generally, I think you could do reasonably with the role here; its a good place to grow from and you do improve as time goes on. It can help you get more used to features and working with people. As far as one thing to improve, Globe asked a good question and I think your answer is quite muddled. Now, I&#039;m the one who will make it clear if I do not like you for your approach from the outset, I am after all the one who made [https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=1747055 this lock] on Miraheze. But there are a few things to say about this. For one it was exceptional in proportion to the attitude. You can review that profile and see they really pushed the boundary and no less than that should elicit the most curt responses. Secondly even with that in mind, it really isn&#039;t the ideal response. It can feel good to make, but it&#039;s not very professional and it does not contribute to the better image of Miraheze. After the action I&#039;d wondered if anyone would think so and I did not see comment about it, but if someone did comment about that they&#039;d be well within their rights. So if there is anyone I hold in greater respect when taking actions its people like peer NotAracham who is consistently professional, and yet has a more &#039;fearsome reputation&#039; in some circles (I&#039;m told, anyway). Here I&#039;ve said in a couple places Dream Indigo is the role model for representation, they remind me of Reception123 on Miraheze. A consistent face, friendly but capable of being firm. So what is a good answer to Globe? I think it is to commit to a baseline of respect. You give everyone a fair chance, an initially equal opportunity from the moment they first turn up. You resist the urge to withhold it, unless it is proven decisively that it is not deserved, as MrPseudonymousEgo did by attacking a volunteer, and doubling down when the consequences were delivered despite saying he was leaving anyway. Even then the above would apply, but then you&#039;re mixing both necessary professionalism with a honest reflection of principle, and not accepting the premise of abuse. You also set a very high bar before the claws come out. Not every occasion of bad attitude or being a dick deserves your rebuke, and a respect-first attitude helps you avoid making that call when it simply isn&#039;t fair. Food for thought, --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 12:05, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
{{support}} I would like to begin by stating that he has addressed my inquiries regarding his candidacy on Discord, and I must say that his responses were quite close to what I was seeking. I believe this could serve as a solid foundation for him to learn. --[[User:Cocopuff2018|Cocopuff2018]] ([[User talk:Cocopuff2018|talk]]) 17:04, 29 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Thank you for nominating me.

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Questions for Candidate ===&lt;br /&gt;
Some questions which I believe are applicable for your role, admittedly I stole most of these questions from Raidarr, I will try my best to mix things up though.&lt;br /&gt;
# Tell me about yourself - Why did you want to become an Meta Administrator and what were the circumstances of your appointment to be one?&lt;br /&gt;
# What do you consider the skills you bring to the role, and what do you think you need assistance learning?&lt;br /&gt;
# As a very new candidate and figure to the platform, what would you say to concerns about electing/promoting a user with under 100 edits on meta to meta patroller or administrator?&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a meta sysop is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# How often do you intend use Discord to interact with community and coordinate with other volunteers? Will you participate in discussions on the WO Discord server in the future? I&#039;ve noticed you have not replied to me when I said hello to you in an volunteer channel.&lt;br /&gt;
# Suppose you have the following actions to use. Lock (reasons spam, vandalism, abuse of multiple accounts, long term abuse or username policy violation), issue a warning, and consult with peers if you do not have a clear answer or feel it is out of your scope. Which would you consider appropriate for these examples? You can write in something different if you believe it would be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
#* a. An account that fills their userpage with text describing black marketing services for other games, and a day later edits links to an black marketing website on their meta userpage. New account, no other contributions, say within 3 days.&lt;br /&gt;
#* b. An account that fills their userpage with text describing their background as a wiki editor who really likes motorbikes, and they link to a personal blog about motorbikes at the same time. New account, no other messages, say within a day to a week.&lt;br /&gt;
#* c. A newly registered account by the name &amp;quot;Food Porn&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* d. A newly registered account with a userpage stating they are 12 years old but they have stated they have meet the requirements for consent in their country.&lt;br /&gt;
#* e. Two users engaging in a bitter argument with insults on meta due to an edit conflict, assuming you have no other context to go on at this time.&lt;br /&gt;
#* f. Three accounts are created with incrementing usernames (idk, Fearless1, Fearless2, Fearless3...) and the first one has made several edits giving advice that isn&#039;t quite right.&lt;br /&gt;
#* g. You are browsing a random meta page and come across a user who recently blanked large sections of the page for no apparent reason. The pages still have stuff on them, but they are now stubs. Someone last edited about it three days ago.&lt;br /&gt;

== Justarandomamerican (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hello! I&#039;m Justarandomamerican, and I am filing a request for stewardship, because the board has abolished the staff role, and for staff members to keep their permissions, they must stand for election. I&#039;ve been here since 2024, when the farm was founded. I hope the community trusts me. Thank you for your time! [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 21:10, 16 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt; This candidate has signed an NDA with the WikiOasis Foundation, as is required for stewardship. [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 01:23, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates.  Some I admit are bundled questions, feel free to answer to the extent applicable.&lt;br /&gt;
# Based on your request, what do you currently do that requires Steward capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe you have made mistakes in your official capacity on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a steward is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Two users appear in the CheckUser interface who both appear to be using Tor who are regular editors on a large wiki, which is also being attacked seemingly out of nowhere by an assailant who is using Tor and free VPNs. Is this a slam dunk connection, if your review of edits suggest their editing styles are similar (but no major stylistic tells)? Why/why not, and if not, what&#039;s the next step to find out?&lt;br /&gt;
# How would you close a vote proposing a change in which seven people essentially say support and maybe a few words, nothing really in depth, and three people have articulated major concerns with the proposal at the level of detail of these questions? Would that process change if it was only one oppose like this to seven support, and if that oppose appeared just before you were going to close the RfC?&lt;br /&gt;

== Steward for Zippy ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{User2|Zippy}} • Hiya, I don&#039;t think I really need to offer much in the way of introduction, as you most likely know me already, I&#039;ve served the platform since October 2024 in tech, and have helped out in global enforcement since day 1 as well. As the result of a recent board motion, stewards will now be community elected (yay), so I am putting myself forward for your consideration. Please feel free to follow up with questions below (preferably related to steward work as opposed to tech, but I&#039;ll answer tech questions too), and I look forward to hopefully serving you. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;lt;small&amp;gt; This candidate has signed an NDA with the WikiOasis Foundation, as is required for stewardship. [[User:Justarandomamerican|Justarandomamerican]] ([[User talk:Justarandomamerican|talk]]) 01:23, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates. Some I admit are bundled questions, feel free to answer to the extent applicable.&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe you have made mistakes in your official capacity on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a steward is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Two users are connecting from T-Mobile USA with IPs that are absolutely all over the place. One uses an android and windows 10 and the other regularly connects from a different browser on windows 10. One has been there a long time and the other &#039;user&#039; is a string of alt accounts that spam gibberish. Is this a slam dunk connection, if your review of edits suggest &#039;maybe&#039;? Why/why not, and if not, what&#039;s the next step to find out? Am I missing an important detail that would make the connection (or not) more clear?&lt;br /&gt;
# How would you consider a request for permissions which has six supports, three oppose, and three abstains, assuming there was no dealbreaker in argument or an unaddressed concern by the requestor? Would your approach change if there was a minor question left unanswered?&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you, --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 22:45, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:# Many many mistakes, an abridged list is:&lt;br /&gt;
:#* My approach to deployment of codebase changes was scrappy until very recently, causing regular downtimes because I typed the wrong thing, it&#039;s changed now in that they are tested on staging first which is a completely separate server (apart from database due to time constraints of setting up a fully separate environment and beta cluster)&lt;br /&gt;
:#* My approach to the behaviours of an LTA (you&#039;ll know who I mean), and my relation to the activities other team members who crossed a line, which I shouldn&#039;t have had the level of involvement and awareness that I did&lt;br /&gt;
:#* My attitudes to others have sometimes been less than acceptable, I have lost my temper at times and made comments that in hindsight I was less than proud of&lt;br /&gt;
:#* The growth of tech was handled by both me and others on the board at the time poorly, onboarding close to half a dozen people with no clear goals in sight leading to me still doing all the work because even of the willing volunteers none knew how to do shit&lt;br /&gt;
:#* The expansion of the feature set of TSPortal was way more than it needed to be, in an attempt to somewhat mirror what miraheze does despite the need not really being there for what it could do&lt;br /&gt;
:# At the scale WO runs at, it&#039;s not very impressive compared to keeping the lights on, but essentially as privileged helpers, who can resolve some frontend issues, along with filling in for local authority when needed to handle vandalism or abuse issues, and to an extent governance if such an issue were to arise&lt;br /&gt;
:# I wouldn&#039;t link them particularly closely, if they geolocated closely or had editing patterns/timings similar then it could be a possibility, but I wouldn&#039;t consider it to be a possibility generally as it&#039;s too vague to be able to consider them anything beyond a tenuous link&lt;br /&gt;
:# I&#039;d review mostly based on my own judgement of the arguments presented within the discussion, along with my assessment of the candidate, potentially involving other stewards if necessary in a way that may add value — if a question was left unanswered, would depend on whether the question could&#039;ve led to some argument being significantly weaker/stronger, but it probably wouldn&#039;t make a significant difference, and it would be based on my assessment of the discussion and candidate&lt;br /&gt;

I am running for Steward because I believe strongly in WikiOasis&#039; goal to provide free and libre wiki hosting and will support it for as long as I feasibly can. [[User:Tali64³|Tali64³]] ([[User talk:Tali64³|talk]]) 01:14, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates. Some I admit are bundled questions, feel free to answer to the extent applicable.&lt;br /&gt;
# Based on your request, what do you currently do that requires Steward capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe you have made mistakes in your official capacity on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a steward is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Two users appear in the CheckUser interface with an identical user agent and IPs that are different but both fall within a 192.94.21.0/24 range. Is this a slam dunk connection, if your review of edits suggest &#039;maybe&#039;? Why/why not, and if not, what&#039;s the next step to find out?&lt;br /&gt;
# An RfC proposing a major change languishes after a few weeks with two strong supports and one abstain. Lets say  for the sake of something to work with that it introduces changes to the Content Policy and there&#039;s nothing about it that would inherently deserve a veto. How would you approach this RfC?&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you, --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 22:45, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Wiki requests and managing abuse filters are the two key responsibilities that Stewards handle - handling CheckUser requests is a close third.&lt;br /&gt;
:# My mistakes don&#039;t really involve my use of the Steward toolset, but rather my overzealous approach to threats of legal complaints (which is mostly a Safety thing). I admittedly haven&#039;t improved on that yet, but I would think carefully and determine if there is merit to the complaints and if they can be resolved without involving the Foundation in the courts, and not let emotion cloud my judgement in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
:# A Steward represents the community aspect of policy legislation and enforcement, as opposed to the Board which handles legal policy and Safety which enforces that policy.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Given the fact that the IP range belongs to a university, the user agent + behavioral evidence is more important than usual. If the accounts are likely to belong to the same person, that would be grounds for a lock. If there is reasonable doubt, err towards the side of caution and wait for concrete proof of multi-account abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
:# There would be a quorum of votes required to pass an RfC - that number will obviously shrink and grow as time goes on. If the quorum happens to be 3 votes minimum, the RfC would have to be closed as successful if it does not contradict Board policy.&lt;br /&gt;

== Globe (steward) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi there! My name is Globe, and I am also a founding member of WikiOasis making this RfS as part of the recent board decision to transition to a community governance model. I currently serve as the director of operations for WO and the Vice President of the WO Foundation board of directors. I would love to continue in my role as a steward to keep up my work in managing LTAs and abuse globally, in addition to handling some wiki requests. I have signed the required NDA for this position and am eager to answer any questions you may have. Happy editing! :) [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

A few weeks later the original bureaucrat returns and is absolutely irate about the new guy.

# Based on your request, I have a two part question; what do you consider the skills you bring to the role, and what do you think you need assistance learning?&lt;br /&gt;
# As a very new candidate and figure to the platform, what would you say to concerns about electing/promoting a user with under 100 global edits to a mid-senior CVT role?&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a global sysop is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Suppose you have the following actions to use. Lock (reasons spam, vandalism, abuse of multiple accounts, long term abuse or username policy violation), issue a warning, and consult with peers if you do not have a clear answer or feel it is out of your scope. Which would you consider appropriate for these examples? You can write in something different if you believe it would be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
#* a. An account that fills their userpage with text describing automotive services, and a day later edits links to an automotive website on their meta userpage. New account, no other messages, say within a day to a week.&lt;br /&gt;
#* b. An account that fills their userpage with text describing their background as a wiki editor who really likes cars, and they link to a personal blog about cars at the same time. New account, no other messages, say within a day to a week.&lt;br /&gt;
#* c. A newly registered account by the name &amp;quot;Hentai&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* d. A newly registered account with a userpage stating they are 12 years old.&lt;br /&gt;
#* e. Two users engaging in a bitter argument with insults on a wiki with admins who are recently active, assuming you have no other context to go on at this time.&lt;br /&gt;
#* f. Three accounts are created with incrementing usernames (idk, Awesome1, Awesome2, Awesome3...) and the first one has made several edits giving advice that isn&#039;t quite right.&lt;br /&gt;
#* g. You are browsing a random wiki and come across a user who recently blanked large sections of several page for no apparent reason. The pages still have stuff on them, but they are now stubs. An admin last edited about three days ago.&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, some of you may know me in the Discord Server as I had been moderating it. Today I&#039;m running for Steward due to Zippy&#039;s suggestion as I have already signed an NDA with the Foundation and having 1 Steward as backup is good in case of heavy loads as we have recently accepted the Italian Brainrot Wiki into WikiOasis. While I am quite vastly inexperienced (even tho I&#039;m a little bit active at Miraheze), I would like to have an opportunity to be able to learn from having this position, I plan to help out with CU investigations and dealing with other tasks that other Global Roles like Global Sysops cannot. While I am inexperienced, I do know my way around (somewhat) and know obvious signs of abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll also answer any questions that you may have as well. I hope you&#039;ll vote for me as with others as well, thank you for your consideration! [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:12, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates.&lt;br /&gt;
# Based on your request, how much do you know about the CheckUser and Investigate interface?&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe you have made mistakes in your official capacity on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a steward is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Two users appear in the CheckUser interface. Both are Google Chrome user agents and both have many IPs that appear within a residential /64 ipv6 range. Is this a slam dunk connection, if your review of edits suggest &#039;maybe&#039;? Why/why not, and if not, what&#039;s the next step to find out?&lt;br /&gt;
#* If you have takes on some of the CU-related questions for the other candidates feel free to chew on them if you like also, relative to your professed interest in investigations.&lt;br /&gt;
# A user requested a wiki say a year ago, made a very large number of edits for say six months, and for the last six months has completely disappeared. A new user comes in and successfully manages to be appointed bureaucrat by a peer. This user also makes many contributions but is running things very differently then how they were originally. A few weeks later the original bureaucrat returns and is absolutely irate about the new guy. The two have a massive pissing match and block each other which goes as well as you expect and it comes to your table. What is your approach to this situation?&lt;br /&gt;

# {{oppose|weak}}. While you&#039;ve no doubt been very helpful in monitoring our Discord community, and that is much appreciated, I don&#039;t really have any way to know how you&#039;ll handle the tools of stewardship. Your first meta edit was today, which isn&#039;t 100% a dealbreaker with experience on other projects, but that wasn&#039;t mentioned in the request. I would personally encourage you to start out at a lower-level role to help build MediaWiki knowledge. A role like meta admin or wiki creator might suit your strengths better? Anyways, best of luck and thank you for running! [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 14:01, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hi, I am Bosco (aka PB2008 on Miraheze) and I am requesting for global sysop here. I joined WikiOasis for 17 months and would like to help dealing with LTAs, especially for wikis using Chinese. I am a global patroller on Miraheze for nearly two months and was a steward before SkyWiki was merged to here in March. I am sure that I have the experience to this permission. Thank you.

== Justarandomamerican (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hello! I&#039;m Justarandomamerican, and I am filing a request for stewardship, because the board has abolished the staff role, and for staff members to keep their permissions, they must stand for election. I&#039;ve been here since 2024, when the farm was founded. I hope the community trusts me. Thank you for your time!

=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates.  Some I admit are bundled questions, feel free to answer to the extent applicable.&lt;br /&gt;
# Based on your request, what do you currently do that requires Steward capabilities?&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe you have made mistakes in your official capacity on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a steward is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Two users appear in the CheckUser interface who both appear to be using Tor who are regular editors on a large wiki, which is also being attacked seemingly out of nowhere by an assailant who is using Tor and free VPNs. Is this a slam dunk connection, if your review of edits suggest their editing styles are similar (but no major stylistic tells)? Why/why not, and if not, what&#039;s the next step to find out?&lt;br /&gt;
# How would you close a vote proposing a change in which seven people essentially say support and maybe a few words, nothing really in depth, and three people have articulated major concerns with the proposal at the level of detail of these questions? Would that process change if it was only one oppose like this to seven support, and if that oppose appeared just before you were going to close the RfC?&lt;br /&gt;

== Steward for Zippy ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{User2|Zippy}} • Hiya, I don&#039;t think I really need to offer much in the way of introduction, as you most likely know me already, I&#039;ve served the platform since October 2024 in tech, and have helped out in global enforcement since day 1 as well. As the result of a recent board motion, stewards will now be community elected (yay), so I am putting myself forward for your consideration. Please feel free to follow up with questions below (preferably related to steward work as opposed to tech, but I&#039;ll answer tech questions too), and I look forward to hopefully serving you. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:# Many many mistakes, an abridged list is:&lt;br /&gt;
:#* My approach to deployment of codebase changes was scrappy until very recently, causing regular downtimes because I typed the wrong thing, it&#039;s changed now in that they are tested on staging first which is a completely separate server (apart from database due to time constraints of setting up a fully separate environment and beta cluster)&lt;br /&gt;
:#* My approach to the behaviours of an LTA (you&#039;ll know who I mean), and my relation to the activities other team members who crossed a line, which I shouldn&#039;t have had the level of involvement and awareness that I did&lt;br /&gt;
:#* My attitudes to others have sometimes been less than acceptable, I have lost my temper at times and made comments that in hindsight I was less than proud of&lt;br /&gt;
:#* The growth of tech was handled by both me and others on the board at the time poorly, onboarding close to half a dozen people with no clear goals in sight leading to me still doing all the work because even of the willing volunteers none knew how to do shit&lt;br /&gt;
:#* The expansion of the feature set of TSPortal was way more than it needed to be, in an attempt to somewhat mirror what miraheze does despite the need not really being there for what it could do&lt;br /&gt;
:# At the scale WO runs at, it&#039;s not very impressive compared to keeping the lights on, but essentially as privileged helpers, who can resolve some frontend issues, along with filling in for local authority when needed to handle vandalism or abuse issues, and to an extent governance if such an issue were to arise&lt;br /&gt;
:# I wouldn&#039;t link them particularly closely, if they geolocated closely or had editing patterns/timings similar then it could be a possibility, but I wouldn&#039;t consider it to be a possibility generally as it&#039;s too vague to be able to consider them anything beyond a tenuous link&lt;br /&gt;
:# I&#039;d review mostly based on my own judgement of the arguments presented within the discussion, along with my assessment of the candidate, potentially involving other stewards if necessary in a way that may add value — if a question was left unanswered, would depend on whether the question could&#039;ve led to some argument being significantly weaker/stronger, but it probably wouldn&#039;t make a significant difference, and it would be based on my assessment of the discussion and candidate&lt;br /&gt;

# An RfC proposing a major change languishes after a few weeks with two strong supports and one abstain. Lets say  for the sake of something to work with that it introduces changes to the Content Policy and there&#039;s nothing about it that would inherently deserve a veto. How would you approach this RfC?&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you, --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Raidarr|raidarr]]&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User_talk:Raidarr|📡]]&#039;&#039;&#039;)&#039;&#039;&#039; 22:45, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:# Wiki requests and managing abuse filters are the two key responsibilities that Stewards handle - handling CheckUser requests is a close third.&lt;br /&gt;
:# My mistakes don&#039;t really involve my use of the Steward toolset, but rather my overzealous approach to threats of legal complaints (which is mostly a Safety thing). I admittedly haven&#039;t improved on that yet, but I would think carefully and determine if there is merit to the complaints and if they can be resolved without involving the Foundation in the courts, and not let emotion cloud my judgement in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
:# A Steward represents the community aspect of policy legislation and enforcement, as opposed to the Board which handles legal policy and Safety which enforces that policy.&lt;br /&gt;
:# Given the fact that the IP range belongs to a university, the user agent + behavioral evidence is more important than usual. If the accounts are likely to belong to the same person, that would be grounds for a lock. If there is reasonable doubt, err towards the side of caution and wait for concrete proof of multi-account abuse.&lt;br /&gt;

== Globe (steward) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi there! My name is Globe, and I am also a founding member of WikiOasis making this RfS as part of the recent board decision to transition to a community governance model. I currently serve as the director of operations for WO and the Vice President of the WO Foundation board of directors. I would love to continue in my role as a steward to keep up my work in managing LTAs and abuse globally, in addition to handling some wiki requests. I have signed the required NDA for this position and am eager to answer any questions you may have. Happy editing! :) [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Questions ===&lt;br /&gt;
In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates. Some I admit are bundled questions, feel free to answer to the extent applicable.&lt;br /&gt;
# Do you believe you have made mistakes in your official capacity on this platform so far? If so, what did you do to improve from those mistakes? You could elaborate on just one if you like, or a couple.&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a steward is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Two users based in China appear in the CheckUser interface with a user agent that indicates Google Chrome on an android device (no apparent difference) and identical IPs from a common VPN. Is this a slam dunk connection, if your review of edits suggest &#039;maybe&#039;? Why/why not, and if not, what&#039;s the next step to find out?&lt;br /&gt;
# A user requested a wiki say a year ago, made a very large number of edits for say six months, and for the last six months has completely disappeared. A new user comes in and successfully manages to be appointed bureaucrat by a peer. This user also makes many contributions but is running things very differently then how they were originally. A few weeks later the original bureaucrat returns and is absolutely irate about the new guy. The two have a massive pissing match and block each other which goes as well as you expect and it comes to your table. What is your approach to this situation?&lt;br /&gt;
# What were the merits of appointing Crystalite as a Global Sysop initially? Was it a team decision? If applicable, should such decisions be a team decision, excluding the scenario where it becomes election only?&lt;br /&gt;

Hello! My name is Crystalite and I am running for Global Sysop (a position I was appointed to today) because the aforementioned staff role abolishment. I joined recently but am experienced in the wiki community, being very active around Miraheze. When elected properly, I plan to help out with Meta clean up, vandalism, and wiki requests.

In the interests of making this more of an interesting process than a formality, I have a few questions which more or less mirror to all candidates. Some I admit are bundled questions, feel free to answer to the extent applicable.&lt;br /&gt;
# Based on your request, I have a two part question; what do you consider the skills you bring to the role, and what do you think you need assistance learning?&lt;br /&gt;
# As a very new candidate and figure to the platform, what would you say to concerns about electing/promoting a user with under 100 global edits to a mid-senior CVT role?&lt;br /&gt;
# What is your vision of what a global sysop is, and what they do for the community?&lt;br /&gt;
# Suppose you have the following actions to use. Lock (reasons spam, vandalism, abuse of multiple accounts, long term abuse or username policy violation), issue a warning, and consult with peers if you do not have a clear answer or feel it is out of your scope. Which would you consider appropriate for these examples? You can write in something different if you believe it would be appropriate.&lt;br /&gt;
#* a. An account that fills their userpage with text describing automotive services, and a day later edits links to an automotive website on their meta userpage. New account, no other messages, say within a day to a week.&lt;br /&gt;
#* b. An account that fills their userpage with text describing their background as a wiki editor who really likes cars, and they link to a personal blog about cars at the same time. New account, no other messages, say within a day to a week.&lt;br /&gt;
#* c. A newly registered account by the name &amp;quot;Hentai&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
#* d. A newly registered account with a userpage stating they are 12 years old.&lt;br /&gt;
#* e. Two users engaging in a bitter argument with insults on a wiki with admins who are recently active, assuming you have no other context to go on at this time.&lt;br /&gt;
#* f. Three accounts are created with incrementing usernames (idk, Awesome1, Awesome2, Awesome3...) and the first one has made several edits giving advice that isn&#039;t quite right.&lt;br /&gt;
#* g. You are browsing a random wiki and come across a user who recently blanked large sections of several page for no apparent reason. The pages still have stuff on them, but they are now stubs. An admin last edited about three days ago.&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, some of you may know me in the Discord Server as I had been moderating it. Today I&#039;m running for Steward due to Zippy&#039;s suggestion as I have already signed an NDA with the Foundation and having 1 Steward as backup is good in case of heavy loads as we have recently accepted the Italian Brainrot Wiki into WikiOasis. While I am quite vastly inexperienced (even tho I&#039;m a little bit active at Miraheze), I would like to have an opportunity to be able to learn from having this position, I plan to help out with CU investigations and dealing with other tasks that other Global Roles like Global Sysops cannot. While I am inexperienced, I do know my way around (somewhat) and know obvious signs of abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll also answer any questions that you may have as well. I hope you&#039;ll vote for me as with others as well, thank you for your consideration! [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:12, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Steward for Zippy ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{User2|Zippy}} • Hiya, I don&#039;t think I really need to offer much in the way of introduction, as you most likely know me already, I&#039;ve served the platform since October 2024 in tech, and have helped out in global enforcement since day 1 as well. As the result of a recent board motion, stewards will now be community elected (yay), so I am putting myself forward for your consideration. Please feel free to follow up with questions below (preferably related to steward work as opposed to tech, but I&#039;ll answer tech questions too), and I look forward to hopefully serving you. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hi there! My name is Globe, and I am also a founding member of WikiOasis making this RfS as part of the recent board decision to transition to a community governance model. I currently serve as the director of operations for WO and the Vice President of the WO Foundation board of directors. I would love to continue in my role as a steward to keep up my work in managing LTAs and abuse globally, in addition to handling some wiki requests. I have signed the required NDA for this position and am eager to answer any questions you may have. Happy editing! :) [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, some of you may know me in the Discord Server as I had been moderating it. Today I&#039;m running for Steward due to Zippy&#039;s suggestion as I have already signed an NDA with the Foundation and having 1 Steward as backup is good in case of heavy loads as we have recently accepted the Italian Brainrot Wiki into WikiOasis. While I am quite vastly inexperienced (even tho I&#039;m a little bit active at Miraheze), I would like to have an opportunity to be able to learn from having this position, I plan to help out with CU investigations and dealing with other tasks that other Global Roles like Global Sysops cannot. While I am inexperienced, I do know my way around (somewhat) and know obvious signs of abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll also answer any questions that you may have as well. I hope you&#039;ll vote for me as with others as well, thank you for your consideration! [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:12, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

# {{oppose|weak}}. While you&#039;ve no doubt been very helpful in monitoring our Discord community, and that is much appreciated, I don&#039;t really have any way to know how you&#039;ll handle the tools of stewardship. Your first meta edit was today, which isn&#039;t 100% a dealbreaker with experience on other projects, but that wasn&#039;t mentioned in the request. I would personally encourage you to start out at a lower-level role to help build MediaWiki knowledge. A role like meta admin or wiki creator might suit your strengths better?

== Steward for Zippy ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{User2|Zippy}} • Hiya, I don&#039;t think I really need to offer much in the way of introduction, as you most likely know me already, I&#039;ve served the platform since October 2024 in tech, and have helped out in global enforcement since day 1 as well. As the result of a recent board motion, stewards will now be community elected (yay), so I am putting myself forward for your consideration. Please feel free to follow up with questions below (preferably related to steward work as opposed to tech, but I&#039;ll answer tech questions too), and I look forward to hopefully serving you. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hi there! My name is Globe, and I am also a founding member of WikiOasis making this RfS as part of the recent board decision to transition to a community governance model. I currently serve as the director of operations for WO and the Vice President of the WO Foundation board of directors. I would love to continue in my role as a steward to keep up my work in managing LTAs and abuse globally, in addition to handling some wiki requests. I have signed the required NDA for this position and am eager to answer any questions you may have. Happy editing! :) [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, some of you may know me in the Discord Server as I had been moderating it. Today I&#039;m running for Steward due to Zippy&#039;s suggestion as I have already signed an NDA with the Foundation and having 1 Steward as backup is good in case of heavy loads as we have recently accepted the Italian Brainrot Wiki into WikiOasis. While I am quite vastly inexperienced (even tho I&#039;m a little bit active at Miraheze), I would like to have an opportunity to be able to learn from having this position, I plan to help out with CU investigations and dealing with other tasks that other Global Roles like Global Sysops cannot. While I am inexperienced, I do know my way around (somewhat) and know obvious signs of abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll also answer any questions that you may have as well. I hope you&#039;ll vote for me as with others as well, thank you for your consideration! [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:12, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

# {{oppose|weak}}. While you&#039;ve no doubt been very helpful in monitoring our Discord community, and that is much appreciated, I don&#039;t really have any way to know how you&#039;ll handle the tools of stewardship. Your first meta edit was today, which isn&#039;t 100% a dealbreaker with experience on other projects, but that wasn&#039;t mentioned in the request. I would personally encourage you to start out at a lower-level role to help build MediaWiki knowledge. A role like meta admin or wiki creator might suit your strengths better?

== Steward for Zippy ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{User2|Zippy}} • Hiya, I don&#039;t think I really need to offer much in the way of introduction, as you most likely know me already, I&#039;ve served the platform since October 2024 in tech, and have helped out in global enforcement since day 1 as well. As the result of a recent board motion, stewards will now be community elected (yay), so I am putting myself forward for your consideration. Please feel free to follow up with questions below (preferably related to steward work as opposed to tech, but I&#039;ll answer tech questions too), and I look forward to hopefully serving you. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Globe (steward) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi there! My name is Globe, and I am also a founding member of WikiOasis making this RfS as part of the recent board decision to transition to a community governance model. I currently serve as the director of operations for WO and the Vice President of the WO Foundation board of directors. I would love to continue in my role as a steward to keep up my work in managing LTAs and abuse globally, in addition to handling some wiki requests. I have signed the required NDA for this position and am eager to answer any questions you may have. Happy editing! :) [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, some of you may know me in the Discord Server as I had been moderating it. Today I&#039;m running for Steward due to Zippy&#039;s suggestion as I have already signed an NDA with the Foundation and having 1 Steward as backup is good in case of heavy loads as we have recently accepted the Italian Brainrot Wiki into WikiOasis. While I am quite vastly inexperienced (even tho I&#039;m a little bit active at Miraheze), I would like to have an opportunity to be able to learn from having this position, I plan to help out with CU investigations and dealing with other tasks that other Global Roles like Global Sysops cannot. While I am inexperienced, I do know my way around (somewhat) and know obvious signs of abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll also answer any questions that you may have as well. I hope you&#039;ll vote for me as with others as well, thank you for your consideration! [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:12, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

# {{oppose|weak}}. While you&#039;ve no doubt been very helpful in monitoring our Discord community, and that is much appreciated, I don&#039;t really have any way to know how you&#039;ll handle the tools of stewardship. Your first meta edit was today, which isn&#039;t 100% a dealbreaker with experience on other projects, but that wasn&#039;t mentioned in the request. I would personally encourage you to start out at a lower-level role to help build MediaWiki knowledge. A role like meta admin or wiki creator might suit your strengths better?

== Steward for Zippy ==&lt;br /&gt;
{{User2|Zippy}} • Hiya, I don&#039;t think I really need to offer much in the way of introduction, as you most likely know me already, I&#039;ve served the platform since October 2024 in tech, and have helped out in global enforcement since day 1 as well. As the result of a recent board motion, stewards will now be community elected (yay), so I am putting myself forward for your consideration. Please feel free to follow up with questions below (preferably related to steward work as opposed to tech, but I&#039;ll answer tech questions too), and I look forward to hopefully serving you. --&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User:Zippy|zippy]]&#039;&#039;&#039;[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]&#039;&#039;&#039; ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 01:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Globe (steward) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi there! My name is Globe, and I am also a founding member of WikiOasis making this RfS as part of the recent board decision to transition to a community governance model. I currently serve as the director of operations for WO and the Vice President of the WO Foundation board of directors. I would love to continue in my role as a steward to keep up my work in managing LTAs and abuse globally, in addition to handling some wiki requests. I have signed the required NDA for this position and am eager to answer any questions you may have. Happy editing! :) [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 01:46, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Fearless (Steward)==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, some of you may know me in the Discord Server as I had been moderating it. Today I&#039;m running for Steward due to Zippy&#039;s suggestion as I have already signed an NDA with the Foundation and having 1 Steward as backup is good in case of heavy loads as we have recently accepted the Italian Brainrot Wiki into WikiOasis. While I am quite vastly inexperienced (even tho I&#039;m a little bit active at Miraheze), I would like to have an opportunity to be able to learn from having this position, I plan to help out with CU investigations and dealing with other tasks that other Global Roles like Global Sysops cannot. While I am inexperienced, I do know my way around (somewhat) and know obvious signs of abuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll also answer any questions that you may have as well. I hope you&#039;ll vote for me as with others as well, thank you for your consideration! [[User:Fearless|Fearless]] ([[User talk:Fearless|talk]]) 10:12, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

# {{oppose|weak}}. While you&#039;ve no doubt been very helpful in monitoring our Discord community, and that is much appreciated, I don&#039;t really have any way to know how you&#039;ll handle the tools of stewardship. Your first meta edit was today, which isn&#039;t 100% a dealbreaker with experience on other projects, but that wasn&#039;t mentioned in the request. I would personally encourage you to start out at a lower-level role to help build MediaWiki knowledge. A role like meta admin or wiki creator might suit your strengths better? Anyways, best of luck and thank you for running! [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 14:01, 17 April 2026 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
