  • Personal info: Hey, I'm revi. I have been doing lots of things this year, including familiar stuff of SRP (and SRGP/SRB), Global Rename business, as well as locking LTAs and spambots and pushing myself into unfamiliar areas with SRCU. I have been taking care of SRCU request for zhwiki (after their local CU permission was removed by WMF Office action), though I have to accept I probably have burned out handling their request by end of year and had to take break from SRCU to recover myself. I also respond to Oversight requests and other enquiries sent to OTRS.

    This is my first confirmation as a steward, and I look forward to continuing the same work in 2019 as I did in 2018, if the community wishes so.

    Full disclosure

    I still work for / provide service to the WMF (see my SE2018 statement), but my contract is scheduled to end sometime this year. (Note that it can be extended.)

  • Información personal: Hola, soy revi, he estado haciendo muchas cosas este año, incluyendo cosas familiares de SRP (and SRGP/SRB), trabajo en renombramiento global, así como bloqueo de cuentas de abuso a largo plazo y spambots, y empujándome a áreas desconocidas con SRCU. He estado atendiendo la solicitud de SRCU para zhwiki (después de que su permiso local de CU fue eliminado por Acción de La Oficina de WMF), aunque tengo que aceptar que probablemente haya agotado el manejo de su solicitud para finales de año y haya tenido que tomar un descanso de SRCU para recuperarme. También respondo a solicitudes de supresión y otras consultas enviadas a OTRS.

    Esta es mi primera confirmación como steward, y espero continuar con el mismo trabajo en 2019 que en 2018, si la comunidad así lo desea.

    Revelación completa

    Todavía trabajo para/proporciono servicio a WMF (vea mi declaración en SE2018), pero mi contrato está programado para terminar en algún momento de este año. (Tenga en cuenta que se puede ampliar.)

Comments about -revi edit

  • What does that even mean? I have no problem with descriptions without diffs in confirms since so much activity takes place on IRC, but they actually need to be descriptive unless the person isn’t a native English speaker, so it’s difficult to go into detail. You appear to be a native speaker, so there’s no excuse. If I had to bet, Leaderboard, this is yet another revenge vote because -revi was the one who told you that you couldn’t keep your failed RfCU open indefinitely until it hit 25 supports.

@TonyBallioni: What nonsense. Since when did my failed RfCU (Requests for CheckUser on en.wikibooks) have anything to do with this? I don't even recall him saying this in the first place. This is not a revenge vote, and please don't jump into unsubstantiated conclusions, thanks. Leaderboard (talk) 09:48, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
You haven’t explained what your vote means. I’m going to assume my guess here is right. TonyBallioni (talk) 15:44, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@TonyBallioni: Your guess has gone horribly wrong. Well, my concerns stem from Cohaf's note about handling zh.wiki CU requests. I noticed that he entirely stopped continuing a CU request simply because one user made somewhat inappropriate comments about him. While I do not condone the other user's attitude - they did deserve a block - it was poor of him to leave the request in an unfinished state for many days to the determent of the zh.wiki community. I also don't see him handling any further requests. Even on IRC, I noticed that his attitude is slightly condensing at times. Leaderboard (talk) 16:06, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, so “Neutral because revi doesn’t like putting up with borderline racist comments.” That makes your revenge vote seem even pettier. Thanks for clarifying this to everyone. TonyBallioni (talk) 16:10, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
if you wish to read my response, it is. Collapsed for neatness.--Cohaf (talk) 16:50, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
(Edit conflict.)Leaderboard I beg your pardon, while I'm not especially pleased with how revi process zhwp SRCU speed, it is slow, it's not until the extent I will abstain my support. At times it is frustrating to wait for 6 - 7 days and this I must say. However, most of the other occassions other stewards will step up to help. I also note that revi doesn't have CU experience before Stewardship, hence, there is some learning curve and we should give the allowance. For the 2 incidents, one is over #wikipedia-zh (that was immediately needed as socks are out every time - he acknowledge he'll do it but didn't). However, the impact was minimal, as the CU is just for a range block to stop the socks from appearing. The socks are easily DUCKable. And in the end the master did use IPs to edit too - and we rangeblocked that and hence, it's a meh. In addition, do note that request came at 2AM local time for revi and it's reasonable for him to wish to rest and not do such CUs. Another occasion is the zhwikiversity case where he ask me to do a discussion which I don't see a need, that can be done immediately IMO. For that particular CU you referenced, I made remarks there and I have nothing more to add. Data was on CUwiki and while it may not be the best approach he could have taken, I will not fault so greatly (as it is once - off, if repeated that's another story). Revi has handled more than 50 CU requests before that and I feel that amount is fair enough. Other than those, he's still a fine CU working at SRCU and other immediate requests (such as potential compromised accounts) he did it. I hope this explains. --Cohaf (talk) 16:23, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
