Meta:Requests for adminship/Ral315
- The following discussion is preserved as an archive of a closed Meta-Wiki request. Please do not modify it.
I will soon be beginning to export MediaWiki documentation from here to MediaWiki.org (where I've already been sysopped). While sysop access here is not necessary, it may be preferable in this process- the instructions for moving content require the deletion of the article following transferral to MediaWiki.org, and being able to delete these articles myself would make the process easier. I am an administrator on the English Wikipedia, and I have over 100 edits here. Confirmation that I am Ral315. Ral315 (talk) 08:04, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment temporary adminship might be better here. Majorly (o rly?) 12:37, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- If that was all he planned to do, yes. But I'd support Ral315 for regular adminship here given the other things he's involved in and the level of trust he's garnered... His call. (if not, I support for temporary) Ral315, can you clarify?++Lar: t/c 13:38, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I'll probably come back soon enough, but for now, I have no pressing need for adminship, so I'll withdraw this request. Ral315 (talk) 21:05, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note: You don't need to delete the page on Meta. If I correctly understood the instructions, the page you linked says: "Move the page at MW.org to its appropriate location if necessary and delete the redirect." which means "On MediaWiki.org, after the import, move the page to its appropriate location and delete the redirect". Indeed that page also says "Replace the contents of the page here on meta with {{MovedToMediaWiki}} [...]". --.anaconda 13:55, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Soft redirects are encouraged to keep at least six months. I guess you need no sysop access immediately for your current maintenance.--Aphaia 14:26, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- My mistake; I read that page as deleting the history from meta and replacing it with a soft redirect. I withdraw for now. Ral315 (talk) 21:05, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
