I'm requesting temporary adminship so that I can use Special:Import. I plan to import the education program training modules from English Wikipedia (w:Wikipedia:Training) so the Meta versions can be made as generic as possible (by removing content that is specific to English Wikipedia) and can be translated with the Translate extension.--Sage Ross (WMF) (talk) 15:33, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

• It seems like either this or that user group is the right one for such purposes. Vogone talk 15:45, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Yes, the transwiki importer right is all I anticipate needing (although being able to clean up after mistakes with deletion or admin-only move actions may or may not be helpful as well.)--Sage Ross (WMF) (talk) 16:39, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
    • As a crat I'm technically unable to grant either the transwiki importer or the importer right, so if there are no objections I'll approve this request tomorrow - Sage did you have a time length that you need the rights for? Thehelpfulone 22:52, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
      • A steward could grant it ... PiRSquared17 (talk) 23:54, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
      • Two weeks would be enough.--Sage Ross (WMF) (talk) 11:39, 1 June 2013 (UTC)
        • Done. —DerHexer (Talk) 15:33, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
