== RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins ==
== Socky 2 ==


Hi there! Phase I of the [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review]] has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

Thanks again for your help with the userspace to mainspace redirects I noted on AN last week. I've come across [[Aaron Accetta|another instance]] of an editor moving both their user and user talk pages to mainspace. Unfortunately the move was made in 2010 and the article been edited quite a bit since then. Could you take a look? As a sidenote, are you aware of any bots or filters that flag such moves?--[[User:Ponyo|<b><font color="Navy">''Jezebel's''</font></b><font color="Navy">Ponyo</font>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Ponyo|<font color="Navy">''bons mots''</font>]]</sup> 21:19, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
:I've moved the user talk page history back to the user's talk page. I've left all the userpage history in the article, since all it ever contained was a draft of the article, which was then moved to article space. There was such an edit filter at one point, but it was disabled due to excessive resource consumption and routinely blocking editors from moving their article drafts out of userspace. Cheers!

:::Is it very important? If so, why? --[[User:Demiurge1000|Demiurge1000]] ([[User_talk:Demiurge1000|talk]]) 23:03, 16 July 2013 (UTC)


<div style="float:right; width: 75px; height: 60px;"></div>
::::It is not very important. My aim was to possibly be nominated at [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship|WP:RFA]]. [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship#About RfA and its process]] under ''Nomination standards'' says ''"There is also a list of editors willing to consider nominating you."'' Reaper is listed as one of the users on [[Wikipedia:Request an RfA nomination|that list]]. I more or less randomly chose one of the users on that list which resulted in Reaper being chosen by me. I then made a formal request at Reapers talkpage ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Reaper_Eternal&diff=prev&oldid=542906210 diff]). He responded by saying he was still reviewing my contributions four days later ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Reaper_Eternal&diff=prev&oldid=543547401 diff]). On 2013-04-23 he told me he would give me a review on one of the next days ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Toshio_Yamaguchi&diff=prev&oldid=551837074 diff]). On 2013-05-04 I asked what the status of the review was ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Reaper_Eternal&diff=prev&oldid=548793133 diff]) to which he responded he was still reviewing my contributions ([http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Reaper_Eternal&diff=prev&oldid=549506351 diff]). Since it wasn't my intention to annoy him, I decided simply to wait. The above question by me was simply for me to get an idea what the status of the review was. As I said, the review is not that important. My expectation was that when asking one of the users at [[WP:RRN#Editors willing to be asked to nominate a user]] this would eventually result in a nomination of me at [[WP:RFA]] by that users. Had I known that this was not case, I could have nominated myself, but then I do not seem to understand the purpose of [[Wikipedia:Request an RfA nomination|this page]]. Obviously that page is marked as an essay, and thus probably shouldn't have expected anything when following any advice from that page. -- [[User:Toshio Yamaguchi|'''<span style="color:black;">Toshio</span>''']] [[User talk:Toshio Yamaguchi|'''<span style="color:black;">Yamaguchi</span>''']] 05:22, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

:Hi Toshio!
[[File:Copyeditors progress.png|right|thumb]]
:Apologies for the delay, but it takes a long time to review as many edits as you have!
:This is no doubt the hardest review I've ever had to do because you focus on non-free content. I have no doubt you've seen the drama wars with many people claiming "it's OK to use it", and just as many, like yourself, pointing out that it violates [[WP:NFCC|NFCC]] point #8. While I pretty much agree with your viewpoint, it's guaranteed to gather a fair number of opposes at RFA simply because people disagree with you. I'm also definitely not the most knowledgeable on image copyright laws, so you might want to get another review from an expert to make sure that you are enforcing them appropriately. (I would like to point out, though, that I know you are following the applicable laws. My recommendation for you to look for a better reviewer on this topic stems from whether you are enforcing those laws appropriately or not.)
:I've also noticed that you contribute a bit to AFD, including having several nominations. From what I can see, these all follow policy, and they aren't just pile-on votes to an AFD clearly going one way. It's very easy to game the AFD-counting tool, which is why I detest opposing based on having an "accuracy" percentage less than some magic number. Some people only contribute to controversial or unclear AFDs, making their percentages far lower than that of a pile-on voter.
:On the subject of article content, I'm pleased to see a fair number of contributions to mathematical articles. Unfortunately, I could find no evidence of you writing a DYK or especially a good article. I don't like nominating anybody who doesn't have at least a good article that he or she can point to to demonstrate his knowledge of [[WP:C|copyright policy]], [[WP:RS|reliable sourcing]], possibly [[WP:BLP]] depending on the subject of the article, and certainly a knowledge of what the encyclopedia is about. While I'm pretty likely to support any RFA that you may decide to run, whether self-nominated or nominated by another editor, I would like to point out that many will not support anybody who does not have some decent articles to point at and say, "I created that." I also liked your contributions to some programming-related articles. (Being an engineering student myself, I find math and programming topics interesting. ;)
:I also liked that you contribute a bit to templates. You could possibly help by contributing to fully protected templates after passing RFA, should you decide to run one.
:I couldn't find much in the way of CSD taggings, but that's fine&mdash;not everybody wants to do that.
:Your work at the help desk is also laudable. Helping newbies is a great trait for an administrator.
:I saw that you are very communicative on your talk page&mdash;still another necessary trait for an admin&mdash;and certainly more so than I've been these last two months. (Sorry again for that, but off-wiki activities like employment come first!)
:To cut a long story short, then, I think you will make a good administrator someday, particularly if you raise one of those mathematical articles, like [[megaprime]]s, to [[WP:WIAGA|good article status]]. If you do, feel free to poke me again and I'll be happy to write a nomination for you to be an administrator. Unfortunately, without a GA, I don't feel comfortable nominating someone to be an administrator, although I definitely would support your RFA unless some massive flaw I never saw turned up (doubtful).
:Finally, then, even if your RFA were to fail due to the NFCC "we can do what we please" crowd, I'd still feel comfortable supporting you in any subsequent RFAs.
:Feel free to contact me if you ever want some advice on something, regardless of whether or not you become an administrator. I'm always willing to help, although sometimes that help might be: "Find someone with more knowledge." ;)
:Thanks!
