Temporary adminship changes

Established wikis

No changes. Established wikis are those with, let's say, at least three active permanent admins. --Millosh 15:14, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

Small wikis

Without active permanent admins.

• First time editor can ask for 3 months of temporary adminship. Requirements: local notice, without opposition or with simple majority.
• Second time editor can ask for 6 months of temporary adminship. Requirements the same.
• After the second time: Editor can ask for 12 months with yearly confirmations on Meta. Discussion should be open for everyone with stewards in ElectCom to decide about arguments. It is likely that it should be held during the period of stewards' reconfirmations. (BTW, do global sysops have reconfirmations? If so, when?) --Millosh

Maybe related this thread. About global sysops confirmations: there's none. At GS#Removal there's the removal criteria for global sysops. -- Dferg ^{☎ talk} 15:28, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

The notification box on top

Hello, per this I had altered the text per Martin Urbanec comments on SRP. The box was first added by a non-steward, ammended by Green Giant. Since this might be a little controversial, I think I should leave a note here. CC WikiBayer too. Feel free to revert if deemed inappropriate, apologies in advance.

I don't see how the previous wording contradicts the reality. I have reverted it, as it was way more precise. --MF-W 17:30, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

The reason is that some users might think local consensus can be sufficient to forward a request, like the one I meantioned, but apparently it is denied per this set of guidelines.Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 17:37, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

I just hope the wording can reflect that there can be local guidelines, but stewards are free to deny based on prevailing norms for permission requests. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 19:06, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
