Rola społecznościowa
Administrators are experienced and trusted members of the Commons community who have taken on additional maintenance work and have been entrusted with the admin tools by public consensus/vote. Different admins have different areas of interest and expertise, but typical admin tasks include determining and closing deletion requests, deleting copyright violations, undeleting files where necessary, protecting Commons against vandalism, and working on templates and other protected pages. Of course, some of these tasks can be done by non-admins as well.
Administrators are expected to understand the goals of this project, and be prepared to work constructively with others towards those ends. Administrators should also understand and follow Commons' policies, and where appropriate, respect community consensus.
Apart from roles which require use of the admin tools, administrators have no special editorial authority by virtue of their position, and in discussions and public votes their contributions are treated in the same way as any ordinary editor. Some admins may become more influential, not due to their position as such, but from the personal trust they may have gained from the community.

Utrata uprawnień administratora
Under the de-admin policy, administrator rights may be revoked due to inactivity or misuse of sysop tools.
In a de-admin request, normal standards for determining consensus in an RfA do not apply. Instead, "majority consensus" should be used, whereby any consensus to demote of higher than 50% is sufficient to remove the admin.
Wniosek o przyznanie uprawnień administratora
All intending administrators must go through this process and submit themselves to RFA, including all ex-administrators who are seeking to return to their previous role.
Po pierwsze przeczytaj informacje umieszczone na stronie: Commons:Administrators/Howto. Następnie wróć tutaj o złóż wniosek w odpowiedniej sekcji poniżej.
- After clicking the appropriate button and creating the subpage, copy the link to the subpage, e.g. "Commons:Administrators/Requests/Username", edit Commons:Administrators/Requests and paste it in at the top of the section, then put it in double curly brackets (e.g. {{Commons:Administrators/Requests/Username}}) to transclude it. Request a watchlist notice at MediaWiki talk:WatchlistNotice, or edit MediaWiki:WatchlistNotice to put up one if you are an administrator.
- If someone else nominated you, please accept the nomination by stating "I accept" or something similar, and signing below the nomination itself. The subpage will still need to be transcluded by you or your nominator.

Any registered user may vote here although those who have few or no previous edits may not be fully counted. It is preferable you give reasons for both Support and Oppose votes as this will help the closing bureaucrat in their decision. Greater weight is given to an argument, with supporting evidence if needed, than to a simple vote.
Promotion normally requires at least 75% in favour, with a minimum of 8 support votes. Votes from unregistered users are not counted. However, the closing bureaucrat has discretion in judging community consensus, and the decision will not necessarily be based on the raw numbers. Bureaucrats may, at their discretion, extend the period of an RfA if they feel that it will be helpful in better determining community consensus.
Neutral comments are not counted in the vote totals for the purposes of calculating pass/fail percentages. However, such comments are part of the discussion, may persuade others, and contribute to the closing bureaucrat's understanding of community consensus.

- Scheduled to end: 21:37, 31 October 2024 (UTC)
After some encouraging comments from Yann and The Squirrel Conspiracy, and some reflection of my side I decided to apply for adminship. I roughly started collaborating in Commons 18 months ago after reporting some copyvios that I found while patrolling eswiki. While trying to upload old photos I was confused by URAA and other rules that lead me to the rabbit hole of learning copyright laws. I started more than 1.400 DRs and an uncountable number of SDs. I'm aware of the most important copyright issues like de minimis, freedom of panorama, URAA, etc, but I'm not an expert on specific legislation. I have a good grasp of Argentine law, Spanish law, German law with its weird rules on FoP, French law (WWII extensions, 50 years at URAA-time) and I can dig into US restorations, but I'm mostly clueless on Middle-East, African or Asian specific copyright laws. Thus, I will likely stick to tasks where I have confidence, e.g. closing FoP cases, and avoid controversial ones like scope-related DRs or user problems. The admin flag will also allow me to see deleted files while participating on undeletion requests. Günther Frager (talk) 21:37, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

- I'm fine you changing your support, but I would prefer if you call me stubborn instead of saying I lack good judgment. I addressed the concern of the people that gave a justified argument with a counter-argument. I hope that you understand that I cannot give a counter-argument to a "I wish you do X" request. Also, such requests wouldn't fly in a DR where I'm supposed to apply my judgment. Günther Frager (talk) 00:39, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

- Oppose As user page is still missing. GPSLeo (talk) 16:01, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment It's their own adminship request and I'm wondering why they aren't deliberately replying to the concerns everyone has raised about their userpage yet. Userpage or no userpage, but it kinda seems irresponsible for an admin to just ignore all the comments if you ask me. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 19:43, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose for now per Iwaqarhashmi – it isn't the lack of a userpage that concerns me, but rather the fact that they haven't done anything to address this. --SHB2000 (talk) 03:26, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

You cannot be found by typing "User:<known-username>" in the search bar; others cannot trust that a ping reaches you... it looks like hiding. Sorry. --Enyavar (talk) 17:26, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
Comments
- Could you please add the language(s) you speak on your user page using Commons:Babel? Thanks, Yann (talk) 08:55, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Prior to submitting the request I placed that Babel template already on my user talk page Special:Diff/948915253, and I plan to set up an archive bot (but I'm still investigating which approach I will follow). Günther Frager (talk) 12:18, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Please create Babel copy on your user page. It should not be blank. EugeneZelenko (talk) 15:08, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- I completely agree. A red page for an admin is not the best. --Msb (talk) 20:49, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- @EugeneZelenko oraz Mosbatho: Why, exactly, is it a problem? The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 05:59, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I might try to explore the underlying mindset.
- For new users of wiki projects, red link or blue link doesnt make much difference, coz they dont know shit about how the whole system works.
- But for users with some experience, they would know the fact that red username = no userpage, and that they would have built up an assumption that red username = rookies. Coupled with users' bias against new users, they would then come to the impression that red username = rookies = they should treat red link users less seriously. Then there's another assumption that "admins" should be treated preferentially.
- When the assumptions suddenly dont match, that makes them arrive at another deduction -- a red link sysop must have something wrong. RoyZuo (talk) 06:51, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
I support the request, butI don't either agree with RoyZuo's words about the red links and his concepts in general. An userpage for admin should be mandatory beyond Gunther refuses to show some personal information. But if he is still reluctant to that, at least a babel template should be included. Fma12 (talk) 14:49, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- I do not follow RoyZuo's explanation in any way. This is exclusively RoyZuo's world of thought, which has nothing to do with that of other users. I also find his choice of words unpleasant. In my opinion, it should be clearly recognizable on the user page that a particular user is an administrator, so the user page should also appear in the corresponding category (Category:Commons administrators). It is also quite clear here that the language in which someone can be contacted should be specified. A comprehensible reason is also given here. Especially as all these things are very easy to implement.

- I would feel more comfortable voting if there was something personal about you anywhere. Like, any own uploads (even yesterday's breakfast mobile photo), or any quasi-personal information on user page (maybe nationality, or country of residence, maybe your languages, maybe age, even approximate, if you don't feel like being doxxed :)). Other than that, I'd support your Request.--Tupungato (talk) 11:31, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- I would also agree that for an admin, having a userpage can let others to know more about you, but I think information like residence and age is somehow private so I don't think Günther needs to disclose it. --A1Cafel (talk) 04:31, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Although I am inclined to support, the red-linked user-page gives me a headache. May I know why is it so? Regards, Aafi (talk) 13:50, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- yeah, i love good looking userpages. modern_primat ඞඞඞ ----TALK 22:01, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
- Before voting I too would like to see an userpage. Bedivere (talk) 15:18, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- The user page is the only page in the wikis where the user has full control and I would like to keep that control. Paraphrasing Fernando Pessoa, if I say nothing there, it's because I have nothing to say. So, the day I have to urge to express myself I will create my user page.
- At the moment only two reasons where given as to why I should have one. One argues that users should know the languages that I speak and that I'm an admin. I agree with the argument and I think I'm fulfilling it. If someone wants to contact me, they will write me a message on my talk page where they will see the languages that I speak without the need to go to another page to gather that information. If I become an admin, I will make sure it is clear they are addressing an admin. I have to point out that Commons:Guide to adminship is not a policy, it is just a set recommendations and tutorials for new admins.
- Regarding the second argument, I think users should be treated fairly regardless if they are admins or beginners. If someone acts in an uncivil manner, I will either warn them or open a report in the admin board.
- I hope I answered your doubts on the topic and my answers helps you to take your decision. Günther Frager (talk) 21:22, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- That you strictly refuse to follow the convention to create a user page with babel boxes and maybe some sentences at least about what you do on Commons does not convince me to support your candidature. GPSLeo (talk) 22:01, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with the coment above. You are being too reluctant to create an user page and the explanation given by you does not sound convincing at all, sorry :( Fma12 (talk) 23:18, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

- Well, honestly, it isn't one of the most satisfactory responses and doesn't convince me at all. If it were my admin request, I would be actively replying to everyone and would try my best to convince as much as I could, but you were like, I don't care what anyone says, and you didn't bother to reply until someone opposed. No doubt your work is great, and I initially supported you, but a would-be admin is supposed to be listening to others and understanding their concerns. You were given multiple options, but you chose to make it controversial. As a future admin, you should have de-esclated this situation and convinced everyone. I don't understand what you mean by having full control of the userpage, because it does not make any sense at all. It's not like anyone would edit your userpage without your permission. Even if that's your concern, you can add an edit notice or transclude your userpage. At the end, a bit of advice for you: if multiple admins and experienced users are telling you to do something, you should listen to them instead of going around refusing it profusely only when it's for the best. Iwaqarhashmi (talk) 07:56, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- How about a compromise? Günther, you could change your signature to only point to your talk page, or create your userpage as a redirect to your talk page; that would eliminate the concerns about your signature having a red link and hopefully satisfy some of the opposes. It seems quite a trivial thing to fail over. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 11:41, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- To be honest, I started this RfA because I was hoping to close more DRs that the number I was creating, neutralizing my impact on the backlog and I only started thinking about it after some admins pinged me. I was expecting the discussions here to be centered around it, but it turned, I'm my opinion, in a bikeshedding discussion on whether my link should be red or blue. I might try to change the vote of some people by making my link blue, but I won't be able to the change opinion of the people that find my behavior unfit to be an admin regardless of the color of my link. Günther Frager (talk) 13:44, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Günther Frager, in all honesty, I've already closed enough of your DRs to respect your judgment and take it into account if it's a yes/no, so you already have enough credibility in that respect. I voted for you despite your redlinked. I decided to remove my vote (I haven't opposed you) because you've deciding to take a stand about this, when it's such a minor issue that bothers so many people--i.e. their issues with trusting you outweigh the hill you're trying to die on. Bastique ☎ let's talk! 15:23, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with Bastique. It's not your competence in DRs that concerns me, I just can't understand why you would take a stand on such a small issue when it's clearly of concern to some members of the community. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:48, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- A RfA should be a debate, but there is no arguments going back and forth. The only time I tried to give an argument it was considered an escalation and qualified as nonsense. The only choice that I seem to have is to follow the consensus of creating user page, yet I see plenty of people being fine without me having one. If I'm not mistaken, your point of view is that I should ignore it to gain the privilege of being an admin. The problem is that I have a different perspective. Being an admin is not a goal for me, it is a tool to help better the community. Thus, I'm a bit more reluctant to accept arbitrarinesses. Günther Frager (talk) 21:29, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

- @HJ Mitchell: Appreciate your suggestion. This might have been a workable solution if proposed by the candidate timely in this request. IMHO, the discussion has moved beyond this. I would also like to know now how I trust him to act on behalf of the community, if he is not respecting what clearly seems community consensus here (see, Commons:Administrators, Administrators should also understand and follow Commons' policies, and where appropriate, respect community consensus., which is a policy, and not just a set of recommendations) --Schlurcher (talk) 12:56, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Ratekreel. I am nominating myself for adminship on Wikimedia Commons. I am an active contributor who regularly tags files for speedy deletion, assists with file moves, and, as a license reviewer, helps review licenses—primarily, though not exclusively, of GODL-India files, which have a significant backlog of ~15,000 files.
In addition to these roles, I am involved in the VRT process and occasionally help by translating commons policies and other things. I have a fair understanding of our policies and guidelines, and I am always open to asking for guidance if I'm unsure or in doubt.
Thank you for your consideration. --Ratekreel (talk) 21:33, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

- Since when are you involved in the VRT process, and how many tickets do you have processed since then? --Krd 05:36, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Krd, I was recently granted the VRT flag (on 20 October) and I've handled a few tickets (I've been busy in college for the past three days). I don't know the exact number and I am unable to find any way to get the exact number. Two tickets have been answered which are awaiting response by orginal email sender. --Ratekreel (talk) 06:54, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- I follow-up Krd, you have been recently granted the VRT-permissions flag, and I would not consider this an active involvement there. However, what are other possible admin areas where you are willing to contribute and why? Regards, Aafi (talk) 05:42, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Aafi while I am still getting started with VRT, there are several other areas I’m interested in contributing as an admin. I would start with patrolling speedy deletion requests and then I would focus on regular deletion requests. As someone who regularly tags files for deletion, I understand the challenges around these processes and believe I could help ensure a more efficient workflow.

- You performed many rename requests where the filename is in a language that you do not speak. How do you ensure that the request is within the renaming guideline in such cases? GPSLeo (talk) 18:01, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi GPSLeo, apologies for the delayed response. Most of the renames I perform under these circumstances fall under Criterion 1 and are originally requested by the actual file uploaders. To ensure the filenames meet our renaming guidelines, I first verify that the requester is indeed the original uploader. Then, I use Google Translate to understand the filename’s meaning and context before proceeding with the move. Since these requests often come from established users, I believe these two steps provide sufficient basis to assume good faith in the new name. --Ratekreel (talk) 15:33, 30 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello I am Kadı. I am an administrator in Commons. Also, I serve as a VRT personnel and global renamer. Sometimes users request oversight actions from me. 3 days ago, I changed visibility of edits on a file because of the uploader's request and I forwarded it to the oversighters but there is no action. I request to be an oversighter, to handle this requests and suppress the edits. Kind regards, --Kadı Message 18:52, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

- Support We have a need, and I trust the candidate. Concerns about future actions of governments is en:WP:Crystal. Hopefully my country doesn't chose the candidate that admires autocrats like Xi and Putin. Abzeronow (talk) 17:38, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Oppose Nothing against the candidate in person, but per below there appears to be no strong need, and creating a mountain out of a single example appears like an attitude to me. In general, especially Commons should have as few oversighters as possible as they perhaps not only address privacy issues like other wikis but also images with unlawful content. I would prefer to have this in few hands, and the most trusted ones. --Krd 17:49, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Rather Support. Having a 4th oversighter would be a benefit rather than a disadvantage. Yann (talk) 09:31, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Support There are only 3 oversighters currently, only 2 of which are regularly active on this wiki, and I recognize none of their names from my general course of editing. I would like to see a name I recognize added to this group, and Kadı fits perfectly for that criterion. I also trust this candidate to do the right things with the tools. Clay (talk) 10:03, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- Support. It's good to hear that there isn't a backlog and it's just that oversighters place a lower priority where the material already has limited visibility but oversight requests are often time-sensitive so having an extra member of the team could be beneficial. If the WMF hasn't expressed concern with having oversighters from Turkey, I don't think it's for the community to disallow it. If we have a trusted and experienced admin offering to volunteer, I think we should take the offer. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 11:24, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

- There definitely is a need for another oversighter. I'm not sure if unwanted location data (which is still present in the metadata, file should be overwritten with changed EXIF to purge the unwanted data) merits oversighting rather than hiding it from non-sysops but maybe others can convince me that it's appropriate. Abzeronow (talk) 19:18, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- And now the issue was dealt with. Abzeronow (talk) 17:32, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Like in your last request, I think the community would like to hear how many requests for OS you made in the last 12 months, and how many of them lead to actual oversight. Feel free to add how long it took to have the OS requests processed. (The last 2 or 3 requests I made were processed within few hours, so I don't actually see any problem.) --Krd 07:46, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Krd, hello. Thanks for your question. Oversight actions are very important which includes users' privacy, and personal datas. I do not remember the number of my requests but 4 days ago I evaluated a request then forwarded to OS mails. 4 days passed, no answer. The request is so basic, it may take approximately 5 minutes. In addition, I do not indicate directly here the requested files for protecting the user's privacy.
- All of us are volunteers here, I do not blame anyone. Commons is a very large project, for example in trwiki we have 4 oversighters, Commons is a very enormous project than trwiki definitely, but in Commons we have only 3. This is definitely not adequate for Commons. I am volunteering here to handle oversight requests faster. In my previous request, you can see this link A steward self assigned OS access to themself in order to handle and emergency action. Kind regards, Kadı Message 09:16, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- An emergency is no relevant example. Also, two Commons OS have edited today. Can we rule out that there is just some communication problem? Krd 13:43, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Krd, I disagree with you. It is a relevant example. Large wikis should use local OS' We are not a small wiki. Kadı Message 15:52, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- Even with more local OS, let it be 10, you will have situations where no one is present for an emergency situation. Volunteers are generally not required to meet emergency situation standard, so and emergency example IMHO is moot. Krd 17:42, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

- @Minorax, Odder, oraz Raymond: Can you comment if you received the request, and if there is any relevant backlog? --Krd 13:58, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Krd: I can confirm we did receive the request. There is no backlog, but we place lower priority on requests where content has already been revision deleted by an administrator as opposed to content that's visible on the wiki. I had limited access to e-mail throughout last week but I will action the request shortly. I do have to say that this whole discussion is striking me as quite strange where a user is requesting advanced permissions because one (one!) request they filed hasn't been answered to their satisfaction. As demonstrated in our activity statistics, we get a fairly steady number of requests every month and nearly all of them are answered a in a prompt manner as a few of our more active contributors can attest to. odder (talk) 16:20, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Odder, as I said before I do not blame anyone. I am a very active user among the Wikimedia projects. My aim is to help oversighters. Best wishes, Kadı Message 16:36, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
- As someone who has sent a fair deal of oversight requests, I can confirm that 95% of the time, I get a 0-2 hr Response. I don't see any downsides with another oversighter. Normally the overnighters are very active, but I have had reports that took more than 24 hrs (IMHO the max time an oversight request can take), and another OS would be helpful, especially with @Kadı's timezone and editing patterns. As to @GPSLeo's concerns, WMF Legal will make the call as to if being in turkey is a problem, that's not our job. All the Best -- Chuck Talk 16:56, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
- On my concerns: I just think we need to be more careful with such problems. For the other topic: For real emergencies there is the WMF T&S team and emergency cases do not have to be handled by volunteers. And it is always possible to contact a regular admin in parallel to perform a regular deletion before the suppression by an oversighter. GPSLeo (talk) 18:17, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
