Texthawm
Texthawm - I would like to request permission for rollback rights. I think I have a pretty good history. I have over 1,000 edits, and I'm pretty active on the wiki. I've never done anything to harm the wiki. I've never made any personal attacks on anyone. To be honest, I can't think of anything that would affect my request negatively. Thanks, -- Texthawm |  Send an Owl  22:21, January 8, 2011 (UTC)

THE ONE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED
I would like to request for having Rollback Privileges because, I want to prevent vandalism and fanon from this wiki and I feel that it would be an easier way to prevent it. These are some reasons why I think I should have Rollback Privileges:


 * I have not had any warnings of creating vandalism or fanon to any wiki I edit on.


 * I have more than 500 edits


 * I get on Harry Potter Wiki everyday as it is my home page on the internet and every time i'm on I try to watch out for any fanon or vandalism.


 * I have not had any personal attacks on a user on any wiki before.


 * I would only use it if it was necessary.

I respect any decision you make toward me having Rollback Privileges.

Have a joyful day! - THE ONE WHO MUST NOT BE NAMED   Owl Me.  02:37, July 4, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm going to decline this request right now. I've looked over some of your recent undos and reverts and come across a number of ones that show inexperience at the moment. For example, this undo is incorrect, you did fix it afterward, but if you used rollback in that situation it would be a problem. Another example was these two reverts which reintroduced issues to the article. Another example would be here where you reintroduced fanon. For these reasons, I don't think you should be granted rollback just yet as you don't appear to have enough experience in determining what is fanon and vandalism (the only time rollback should be used). Please take more care when reverting someone's edits, and reapply after you have a bit more experience :-). Cheers, Grunny  ( talk ) 09:49, July 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * I respect your decision. I think what I did on it was i thought i was getting rid of it but, instead I got it back on the page, but if you see the newer edit after that i made it go away. Thank-you for your time and, Thank-you for your advice, on having me wait more until I get more experience.

I do my best to be a contributing member of this wiki and dislike vandalism and the like with a passion. When I'm able to I watch the wiki and undo any vandalism I see as quickly as I can. Having rollback permissions would allow me to revert vandalism quicker and more efficiently than I currently can. I'd appreciate if the admins would consider giving me this permission.

 * Do we know if she's even interested in the position? Her profile lists her as only "slightly active" at the moment, though she has in general been editing much more recently. Still, an admin, particularly one on such a busy wiki, should be someone who is reasonably active. Other than that, I don't really have any objections- her contributions are good and she's a chat mod, so she's already shown that she can be trusted with authority.

I would like to request admin privileges on the Harry Potter Wiki. I do believe that the admins we have do a good job, but they are overburdened - of the nine admins we have, three have not edited at all in over a month and of the remaining six, there are least three that have not edited within the past week.

If chosen, I would focus on issues of administration before making regular edits. Vandalism and issues related to off-topic blogs and such would be handled and matters that have been left sitting such as lack of movement on featured pages would be examined. The possibility of enabling new Wikia features such as badges which have not really undergone any sort of community review would be floated the community.

I believe my editing record is strong, and there are also my initiatives such as clearing out orphaned pages and supporting the notability policy. I also am currently the sole active admin and bureaucrat on the Eternal Sonata Wiki and since I took over earlier this year, it has moved from under 100 pages, many of them stub class, to nearly 250 pages, most of them full articles, and a featured Wikia wiki.

I will note that as stated in my profile, I do have another Wikia account. In case this is a concern for anyone, the account in question has not been used by me to edit on this wiki since before I registered this account, well over a year ago. I have my own reasons for not using the old account, but would be happy to provide the name of it if absolutely necessary to someone who asks for it, to be given in chat.

Feeling far less self-conscious now, as I've been editing for almost a year and with almost if not no bad contributions, I feel that it's about time I asked for admin rights here. That way not only will I be able to quickly revert copious amounts of vandalism, but also I'll be able to quickly delete nonsense or fanon pages when other admins aren't active.
 * Hunnie Bunn, nothing personal, and I really respect all of the work that you've done around here, but I think that this may be a bit too soon. Recently you engaged in some troublesome editing regarding Gryffindor traits. There have also been some times when you've undone some contributions that weren't obviously intended as vandalism without leaving an edit comment or a message for the user in question. Also a bit of a concern is this whole thing about supposedly abandoning this account and starting another account entirely, only to then keep editing with this one. What I'd suggest-- request rollback instead, build up a good history with it, and then try requesting admin status again in a few months or so. ProfessorTofty (talk) 00:19, January 5, 2013 (UTC)
 * Not sure if I should reply here or on your talk page... either way, it's understandable what you're requesting and you're right about my bad behaviour in the past. Do I delete these messages and restore the page to the last edition, or do I just make a new one for rollback and archive this one, just wondering? Or am I doing the whole thing the wrong way? -- <font face="Times" size="3" color="Red">Hunnie Bunn (<font face="Times" size="3" color="Red">talk ) 00:25, January 5, 2013 (UTC)

ArrestoMomentumBot
Hello all, so I've had a chat with a few users around the Wiki, and they seemed to think that having another bot could be useful so, hence, I am here today to make an application for my bot to be granted a Bot Flag. There are a number of tasks that I would like to carry out in collaboration with Ironyak1 (having chatted to him, of course), including mostly clean-ups to make our Wiki look as professional as it deserves to be. This bot uses both Pywikibot and AutoWikiBrowser (although only Pywikibot if it is necessary).

Currently, my bot is in perfect working order over on the LOTR Wiki, and my experience over there can hopefully be carried over here. Once again, (if granted the Bot Flag) I will be working alongside Ironyak1, and we will actively communicate over who is doing which project (so that our bots do not clash).

Thanks everyone for your time,

ArrestoMomentum &#124;  talk


 * Having spoken with ArrestoMomentum about various tasks from page formatting to category fixing to many other issues, there is plenty of work to justify having two bots doing clean up IMHO. It also helps to have another person with bot experience to bounce ideas off and figure out the best method to accomplish various tasks or special requests.
