Drini

edit

Well, although I'd prefer that there wasn't a "local" oversight group, given the few candidacies I will throw my hat in the ring. Here's mine.

My credentials: steward, sysop at 7 wikis, checkuser at 2, otrs and already identified to the foundation, so I think I'm able to handle the responsability. es:Drini 15:13, 9 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  21. Support Support While I agree with WjB, if Oversight is going to be locally applied as well, Drini is someone in whom I would trust to use it properly. -- Avi 02:56, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  23. Support Support actually uses tools to better the project. miranda 16:40, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Actually, every candidate that was nominated, Nakon, Majorly, Mike, Drini, and myself... every single one of them "actually uses tools to better the project". ++Lar: t/c 14:18, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  24. Support Support No doubt. --Kiensvay 10:53, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  25. Support Support, highly trusted user. Cirt 19:22, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  26. Provisional Support Support. Provided that stewards continue to check the oversight logs for cross checking and accountability until a second oversighter can be elected. I trust this user, and it is my personal belief that each local project (and in the sense that for the purposes of oversight and checkuser, I'll consider meta a local on in this context only, meta is actually projects coordination). NonvocalScream 04:07, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    There have to be at least two elected oversighters, or none,... that's policy. There is discussion of local policy to provide that stewards are invited to take up, and retain, the oversight bit, without local election. I am not sure that local policy has been widely discussed and doesn't yet seem to have consensus. ++Lar: t/c 13:14, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Sorry Lar, I don't see the two oversighters requirement. Where is it. NonvocalScream 17:55, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Hmm... can't find it explicitly in policy the way it is for CU. Nevertheless everyone I've ever talked to about this assumes it to be policy, it was assumed global policy on Commons, (we took it into account during elections, and Herby didn't resign until Raymond got elected, so we would always have 2) and I suspect most stewards, myself included, would not set the oversight bit on for just one oversighter on a wiki. Could be wrong. But ya, it's not explicit. Seems a good idea to me though. ++Lar: t/c 14:18, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm assuming the stewards will continue doing oversight, that's why I would personally prefer this group not be created. es:Drini 04:35, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  27. Support Support though I would prefer if Lar didn't drop out. —Giggy 05:10, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    I absolutely plan to stand aside in favour of Mike and Drini, as soon as Mike gets the supports he deserves. He's a really well suited candidate and I'd like to see him get approved... If anyone has any questions or concerns, they should raise them. ++Lar: t/c 13:14, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

edit
  1. Oppose Oppose. On reflection I do not think there is much benefit to having local oversight on meta and that it could in fact be detrimental. At the moment we have over 30 stewards who could oversight edits here, and stewards regularly look in on meta. Creating a local oversight group will lead to stewards deferring to the locally appointed users, significantly reducing the pool of people willing to perform these actions. It seems to me the waiting time for oversight is more likely to increase than decrease (and no evidence has been provided that the volume of requests is such the stewards cannot handle them). I would rather the steward team continued to provide oversight cover for meta, which of course would mean Drini could provide oversight in that capacity. WjBscribe 03:51, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Not personal, but why? Alex Pereira falaê 19:23, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Lo siento, no hablo inglés. Soy un usuario de es:Wikipedia, y lo conozco bastante bien. Si bien es una persona seria y responsable, es algo impulsivo y hace las cosas a su manera (bastante irregular, por cierto). Además, ha faltado a muchas veces a políticas referidas al cuarto pilar. Comentarios, a la discusión o a mi user talk.--Greek 19:30, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If well is a good person and responsable, is a little impulsive and make the thinks on your mode (very irregular, that's right). In addition, he has failed many times to policies relating to the fourth pillar. Comments, on my talk page" —translated by Alex Pereira falaê 20:02, 21 July 2008 (UTC).[reply]
