Voting

@Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker: I have never voted on any wikis before, so I was not aware that you had to have an account to vote. I am sorry for my mistake, and I acknowledge that it was my fault for not checking that you needed to be logged in. I now understand this. Sorry for bothering you, and as I said above, I acknowledge that it was my fault. I am truly sorry for bothering you. 82.3.185.12 10:12, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

I'd accept your apologizes. You're welcome to Meta-Wiki. Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker ^(CA) 10:17, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

@Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker: Please don't block me. 82.3.185.12 10:19, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

I'm not going to block you (and I'm unable to do that), because I'm not an administrator here. And blocking others is in this case totally unnecessary, because it's too heavy for this case. Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker ^(CA) 10:31, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

@Nieuwsgierige Gebruiker: On this page, two admins, more specifically Camouflaged Mirage and revi are not aware on any restrictions about voting. Can you show me the policy that says that IPs can't vote because the admins don't seem to think there is one. Regards, 82.3.185.12 11:40, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

Since I am pinged here, I will repeat what I said on SRGP, there isn't a policy prohibiting IP from contributing at SRGP requests. SRGP is never a vote, so it doesn't matter who put a support / oppose there, what matters is the content of the comments. Good !votes will comment on the merits of the applications, how the candidate meets the requirements and etc; bad ones won't or are irrelevant. Nevertheless, all opinions are valid and I will hope you will not strike any more comments there. In fact, even meta admins we don't actually have the mandate to strike votes, we just very occasionally do it via IAR and etc. Stewards the only people responsible for striking votes if needed / meta CU if there are socking concerns. Thanks much. Camouflaged Mirage (talk) 13:31, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
