There are some members of the community who think that somehow only stewards should be able to do this. What they think of it is irrelevant unless they can get enough support to change the global policy. I'm not going to reopen this bug because there doesn't appear to be community consensus for the change (there are no 'no' votes but the number of people participating is not nearly enough, WONTFIX - INVALID), but please ignore comments 6 and 8. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

It seems that he meant there was no clear policy for determining whether this change has local community consensus. Don't ignore that. :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

How in the name of god did you figured that out? Perhaps you're talking about some meta limit, which does not directly applies to ro.wp. There is currently no limit to the number of votes needed to be appointed on ro.wp. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

I count 25 administrators on rowiki ( https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:List%C4%83_utilizatori/sysop ). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33879 --- Comment #1 from Snowolf snow...@snowolf.eu 2012-03-17 09:21:35 UTC --- I see comments from only 5 users, and rowiki has only 3 'crats. I strongly suggest that this is not advisable, especially given the recent hiwiki situation. This right should be enabled only in wikis with a significant number of 'crats where the potential for abuse is virtually none. I suggest that on such a small wiki it's highly unadvisable and should not be fullfilled. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33879 --- Comment #2 from Strainu crangasi2...@yahoo.com 2012-03-17 20:50:45 UTC --- 5 users is a significant number on ro.wp. I have no idea what the hiwiki problem was, but I would say that we should have the right to risk an abuse if we wish to do so. I'm pretty sure removing the admin rights is something that can easily be undone by stewards if things really get out of hand. We have quite a high turnaround rate for administrators and asking for removal on meta just takes too long. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are the assignee for the bug.
