Meta:Requests for adminship/Wiki13

Hello everyone, hereby I would like to request local adminship op Meta-Wiki. Lately I've come across several cases, where a LTA is on a vandalism spree on Meta. When that happens, I can't do a whole lot other than reverting and/or tagging pages (or requesting for a deletion to a current admin on Meta, which I have been doing a lot lately (mostly via IRC) for deletion. I feel I can do this work more efficiently, if I were an admin here.
For people that don't know me yet: I'm Wiki13 and currently a global sysop and global rollbacker. Also I'm an administrator on the Dutch Wikipedia. I have also been active as administrator on Wikidata for its first year of existence, to get it to the point of where it could stand on its own feet. Concluding: I already have quite some experience with the admin tools and how they work and I think I would be an addition to the current team. If you have any questions about me or some action I did, feel free to ask below. Wiki13 talk 22:29, 31 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

- Oppose As with several requests here on meta before, countervandalism activities per se are not a sufficient rationale for meta adminship, there is a reason why metawiki is not included in the GS wiki set. Feel welcome to participate here on this wiki (currently 0 edits to meta namespace besides cvn, votes and translations) and I may reconsider my decision to oppose here. Kind regards, --Vogone (talk) 02:47, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I stated in my rationale above I would mostly do just regular cleanup, but that does not neccesarly mean I won't do other things like trying to help with the spam blacklist or requests on Meta:Requests for help from a sysop or bureaucrat. --Wiki13 talk 10:18, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose per Vogone for now I think. --Herby talk thyme 10:24, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose What Vogone said. I'd like to see more participation in Meta activity. --Glaisher (talk) 10:27, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose --Steinsplitter (talk) 15:27, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Request withdrawn. I'm not going to continue this request for another six days. Apparently I'm not active enough on Meta-Wiki to fill in this request. Next time I will think twice to even consider this. --Wiki13 talk 15:53, 1 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
