The BIONICLE Wiki talk:Requests for Adminship

What about Rollbackers? This is MarioGalaxy2433g5 by the way.
 * Good point, I'll add a "Nomination for Rollback Rights" section. ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 10:34, 13 February 2008 (EST)

everyone is going to be getting on here and nominating themselves. i want to put my name down, but i don't want to sound childish doing it. - Panakalego 00:08, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Don't worry. At another wiki I edit, there was only one RFA, ever. MarioGalaxy2433g5{Metroid/Mario/Pokemon} {talk/contribs/Logs} 00:12, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

i guess i could put my name down... - Panakalego 00:14, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Woah, rollback requires rights? I didn't know that? If anybody wants rollback rights, feel free to ask - we could use some more people with them. They're really, REALLY helpful. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } 00:51, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * then i'll put my name down! should i vote for myself or not? - Panakalego 01:09, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Rollback rights aren't horribly powerful - I'd assume that you can just ask, and get them given to you. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } 03:34, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * I think you should number your votes by placing a # before your signature that way we can easily count up the votes. Also, unless it is rollback rights, if you request to become an admin, there must be at least 3 votes in order for that person to become an admin. MarioGalaxy2433g5{Metroid/Mario/Pokemon} {talk/contribs/Logs} 13:15, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

where do i ask? Daiku? Wiki staff? - Panakalego 14:27, 25 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Isn't this page just a reference for when we do need another Admin? It's kinda cruel to say Users can be nomenated, and say they can't become Admins 'cause they're not needed at the moment. - Panaka lego  22:00, 9 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't like how this works, it should be who has the better reasons, not how many votes the guy has. Look at Kazi, most of the people voting for him have no idea what's going on. - Panaka lego   Edits)  16:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Like the AFD system? Don't worry, if a vote is made in bad faith, it can be rejected. This is mostly in the case that someone is using dupe accounts to vote for themselves. If that is believed to be so, have a staff member check using checkuser. Kazi wouldn't do that, though. MarioGalaxy2433g5  { talk /contribs/Logs} 21:59, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
 * We still need to tell Daiku what's going on. More then one user should tell him. - Panaka lego  22:03, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Time limit
I think there should be a time limit on requests. After a certain date votes would no longer be valid for a request. MarioGalaxy2433g5 { talk /contribs/Logs} 15:13, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm in agreement with you there. Auserv! You're the guy in charge of this thing, do something. - Panaka lego  15:16, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
 * As I mentioned on my talk page, I would suggest that three votes for=you get the powers and three votes against=removal of your request and a month before you can request again. But since a sysop or a bureaucrat is a lot bigger than rollback rights, we might want to make a rule that you must get three votes in addition to approval by the majority of the active sysops/bureaucrats.

Request for Rollbacker
I have a question. Two questions, actually. I request for Rollbacker here, or the main page of Requests for Adminship? And after I request for Rollbacker, and possibly obtain that right, after a month or so, might I request for Adminship (as a Bioniclepedia staff member)? Thank you. Racht 00:34, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * 1: Main page 2: You can make the request, but you will have to wait for a year at the least to actually get it. And that is if you don't get three votes against. - Panaka lego  02:24, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Generally, sysopship or bureaucratship is a far bigger deal than rollbackship, we only approve those requests in a time when admins are badly needed and when we are positive that we can trust the user. ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 15:01, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

"Rollbackship"? I've never heard that one before! =P - Panaka lego  15:33, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's a new one. =P ToaAuserv ? ...BPAdmin 16:42, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Pirakafreak24 an admin
Ok, so I was wondering, how many votes do I have to get to be an admin here? can I vote for myself? -- Pirakafreak24 (that's me!) ( TALK!!!! ) Life is full of too much homework. 23:10, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, I think you need 3 votes, and yes, you can vote for yourself.-|M|ata |N|ui 13:58, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Ok, its pretty clear that you guys don't want me to be an admin, and I'm cool with that. So, I reapplied for rollbacker. Maybe next year you'll trust me enough to be an administrator. I think its pretty clear that I'll love bionicle through High School. I can wait. (maybe not TOO long). -- Pirakafreak24 (that's me!) ( TALK!!!! ) Life is full of too much homework. 23:09, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion
I think we should make it a rule that you have to at least be a Rollbacker to run for admin. It would help keep the "I can be an admin by doing this?!" stuff off the page. Panaka lego  04:40, 8 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Great idea!-- Twilightfan24 (PF24) ( Talk ) <font color="Blue">ROSALIE IS SO HOT! TWILIGHT ROCKS!!! http://www.wikia.com/skins/common/progress-wheel.gif 01:13, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Here's my suggestion - you can't nominate yourself for any rights. Somebody else must suggest you. - Daiku { Whine Here } { Look what I did! } 01:19, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that's a great suggestion. Masketh-Kahn (talk/Contributions) 01:50, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

 * What about Rollback? It's not much more then a title itself. So do we want no self-nominations for that too? BTW: Is there a reason why users can vote for themselves? Panaka  lego  ( Ad min) 06:57, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
