POTY and Interface-Admin right
editHi! I want to deeply thank you once again for the amazing work you have done so far in order to save POTY.
As some fixes might need to be quickly deployed to the script, maybe it would be necessary to get Interface-Admin right at least on a temporary basis.
The procedure to apply for this right is described on this page.
Best regards and wishing you a beautiful day -- Giles Laurent (talk) 12:26, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Looks like Steinsplitter got the edit requests, so that won't be necessary. Ingenuity (talk) 12:53, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
- Yes but if new edits like this one are needed then this edit permission seems extremely useful. It took 15 full days to have the edit request fulfilled and we can't afford having that much delay if new bugs are discovered during POTY contest (which is always likely to happen when scripts are deployed for the first time) -- Giles Laurent (talk) 13:34, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
