#::You would weakly support someone who is more familiar with the platform and has been on the discord team for months, led one of the largest community upheavals on SkyWiki (migrating to WO) than your seemingly preferred candidate for global sysop? Your immediate support for Crystalite with little comment other than "Good luck" doesn't inspire confidence in your neutrality on such a request, which as has been mentioned above, stewards should be impartial. I don't have confidence that you are impartial towards Fearless or Crystalite, despite how neutrality should be the principle underpinning the steward role. I'd like you to clarify why you support Crystalite, who is new to the platform, over someone who is well established like fearless, for the benefit of all here --'''[[User:Zippy|zippy]]'''[[User talk:Zippy|bonzo]]''' ([[Special:Contributions/Zippy|c]] • [[Special:CentralAuth/Zippy|ca]]) 17:53, 19 April 2026 (UTC) | #::You would weakly support someone who is more familiar with the platform and has been on the discord team for months, led one of the largest community upheavals on SkyWiki (migrating to WO) than your seemingly preferred candidate for global sysop?

#:I understand Steward and Global Sysops are very different roles. However I was mentioning on why are you giving them a Support vote and didn't point out the same issue you had with me when Crystalite had quite literally nearly zero interactions with WikiOasis until they got appointed as Global Sysop as Global Sysop still retains a lot of power, I don't believe requestors should be able to immediately get a hat, especially one as powerful as Global Sysop when they have never interacted with the community a lot before. At least I interacted with the community before on Discord, but Crystalite didn't until very recently.

#::I simply look for different things in candidates than you do—and that’s okay. I would prefer a candidate with more experience with MediaWiki, and workings of a farm in general (Mira specifically) than someone who is very familiar with our community, albeit only on discord. If you had more (any) on-wiki experience anywhere, I would be much more comfortable supporting such a request. I do wish you the best of luck in your global sysop request next week as I agree you are better suited for that role. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 02:02, 20 April 2026 (UTC) | |||
