:Thank you for your thoughtful questions, I will do my best to answer these questions! | |||
:1. I think Patroller on miraheze Meta has helped me be comfortable in identifying stuff like spam, vandalism, and other issues quickly. I have had experience using sysop tools on the miraheze Grace Wiki, a semi-popular one, which I'd say involves a lot of coordination and learning to work with people. For assistance, I'd say I want help on more complex cases that aren't entirely textbook, especially considering policy interpretation and documentation is lacking a bit on meta. | |||
:2. If I were an outsider, I'd say my biggest concern would be giving someone so new such large hats. Sure, my Miraheze experience can also be counted a little bit, but WikiOasis has its fair share of differences. I totally understand why my appointment was a little shaky-I was pretty surprised myself, straightaway getting the role. Talking about myself, being, well...myself, I can't reasonably say I will be perfect in my role, because firstly, I'm biased...surprise, surprise, and also because I'm human. The simple fact is, the most senior stewards to the newest faces will all make mistakes, and I'm no exception. If I am elected, all I can promise is that as a relatively new user, I will do my best and seek guidance from my fellows. | |||
:3. I think what I'd want most from global sysop is more distinction than just "sysop but everywhere". It's a new role, so I'd say what I'd want from it is not only just maintenance of different wikis, but more interaction. | |||
:4A. For this, considering it's a brand new account, I'd delete the userpage and llock with the reasoning of an account only made for spam/advertising purposes. | |||
:4B. This wouldn't be too much of a concern to me if it's general info about them self and the link to the blog isn't very pushed/spammed everywhere. | |||
:4C. Just a lock for this one. | |||
:4D. For this, I'd delete the local page and contact T@S to vanish the account and hide revisions. | |||
:4E. For this one, I'd only intervene straightaway if there's serious stuff, like death threats and similar. But if it's just a plain nasty discussion and the admin's aren't intervening, I'd leave a message on the most recently active one, more like a friendly user giving a nudge than an action from a global sysop. | |||
:4F. For this one, I'm not totally sure. It's possible they're socks, but if they have done nothing I ask someone else and keep an eye on the accounts. | |||
:4G. I'd revert the changes, and if the user had made constructive edits before, issue a warning, but if not then I'd lock with the reasoning of VOA. [[User:Crystalite13|Crystalite13]] ([[User talk:Crystalite13|talk]]) 02:42, 18 April 2026 (UTC) | |||
