===[[User:TalBot|TalBot]] and [[User:GrafZahl|GrafZahl]]===
This is a bundled self-nomination. The first applicant is the bot of the second applicant.


==Confirmation discussions==
By [[WS:BOTR#Soft redirect maintenance|request]], I'm planning to do [[:Category:Soft redirects|soft redirect]] maintenance using the pywikipedia script [[User:TalBot/rm-soft-redir.py]]. This involves the deletion of hundreds of pages, so a bot with sysop privileges is needed. The script was tested in several dry runs directly on Wikisource. The log of the run on [[:Category:Soft redirects/September 2006]] is available at [[User:TalBot/rm-soft-redir.py/test.log]] (943kb).

[[User:TalBot|TalBot]] is active since October 2006 and was granted official bot status about a month later. It has since run and completed several tasks, making thousands of automated edits and page moves in the process.

I ([[User:GrafZahl|GrafZahl]]) am active since June 2006. At the moment, most of my Wikisource time flows into operating and maintaining [[User:TalBot|TalBot]] and writing bot scripts for users requesting tasks, but occasionally I work a little on some of [[Author:James Clerk Maxwell|James Clerk Maxwell]]'s works or scan some pages from a book. A bot operator sometimes has to clean up after the bot, and with a sysop bot, this might require sysop rights. Otherwise, I missed the admin buttons very little. But it seems natural that the amount of community trust granted to the bot operator should never be smaller than the amount granted the bot.

I'd like to ask for a single vote for the both of us, because there is not much point in giving sysop rights to only one of us.

Lastly, I should point out the alternative of giving the bot of an established administrator sysop rights and let it run the script. This might slow down things very slightly due to the additional communications channel incurred, but is otherwise just as good.

Nominations for adminship

No current discussions.

Confirmation discussions

"Administrator access depends on the continued support of the community. This may be tested by a vote of confidence, in which a simple majority (50%+1) must support the user's continued adminship for it to be retained. Any user may propose a vote of confidence, but at least three established users must support the need for one before it can be called. Such a proposal is made automatically one year after the last scheduled or called proposal. The full schedule of proposal votes is available on the administrators page.

"In the case of an unscheduled (called) proposal, the user may not use administrator access for any non-trivial action at any time until the vote is closed. A bureaucrat (see the admin list) will eventually archive the discussion and, assuming consensus, request removal of administrator access by a steward."

Administrator policy (as of 12 December 2006)

A minimum of three established users must oppose below for a confirmation vote to be called. Users are free to indicate support for the administrator, although this has no effect on the outcome. Inactive administrators will automatically lose access unless a majority support continued access.

No current discussions.
