:{{Not done}} I'm not satisfied with your [[wikiquote:User:MisatoForever|apparent confirmation edit]] on an account created just ''today'' and which has ''zero edits''. Moreover, given the outstanding outstanding concerns related to abuse of multiple accounts on [https://testwiki.wiki/wiki/ Test Wiki], restoration of rights will not be considered at this time. Thank you. [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 14:16, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

:::{{u|Theory of Eternity}}, I think it is too early for us to grant the flag. You should follow the advice given by Dmehus and reapply after a while (probably months later). -- [[User:Juslit|Jusl<i><b>¡</b></i>t]] ([[user talk:Juslit|talk]])  19:26, 9 April 2021 (UTC)

* User: {{RFP/User|Juslit}}
* Requested group/permission: Interface Administrator
* Reason for requesting: I'm requesting the <code>editinterface</code>. I will make a gadget similar to that of [[w:User:BrandonXLF/Restorer.js]] on this wiki. I tried to do so before but I don't have the permission to edit sitewide JS files. Futher I will also like to make/adopt useful gadgets from enwiki.

:Why do we need it? I think you should copy that code first to your own common.js page. There is almost no vandalism on this wiki for which that script is intended. --[[User:Anton|Anton]] ([[User talk:Anton|talk]]) 06:42, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
::{{u|Anton}}, that script will not only help to revert vandalism. It will restore any version that is archived in the page history. Take the example of your own sandbox/test page (if you have), only you make edits on that page and you cannot use rollback on that page. In that circumstances, this tool will help to restore any version of the page. -- [[User:Juslit|Jusl<i><b>¡</b></i>t]] ([[user talk:Juslit|talk]])  06:56, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

:::Yes, I know what is Restorer. I can make Restorer to Gadgets, if you want. But I don't know why. --[[User:Anton|Anton]] ([[User talk:Anton|talk]]) 07:04, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
::::{{u|Anton}}, wait! Don't make. Let me do it if I will be granted the bit. -- [[User:Juslit|Jusl<i><b>¡</b></i>t]] ([[user talk:Juslit|talk]])  07:15, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

:::::Okay, good luck for requesting! --[[User:Anton|Anton]] ([[User talk:Anton|talk]]) 07:40, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
:{{Not done}} I am not convinced that the script is needed, or needed sitewide. Therefore no need for the user right to be granted Zppix ([[:meta:User:Zppix|Meta]] &#124; [[User talk:Zppix|talk to me]]) 14:00, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

:[[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] Can you tell me how you found TestWiki, or who referred you to us? Is there any particular aspect you are keen to test? [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 22:13, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
::I found this through a Google search for "test wikis" because I was wanting to test things admins can do on wikis like protecting pages, translating pages and blocking users. [[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] ([[User talk:Lava Spire|talk]]) 22:15, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
:::[[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] Alright. I'm going to grant you <code>[[TestWiki:Administrators|sysop]]</code> rights ''only'' for now. Should you wish to test <code>[[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> rights, you may apply for that and any [[TestWiki:Consuls|Consul]] '''''only''''' may grant that in there discussion. To make granting <code>[[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> more likely, please ensure you create, and delete, a sufficient number of test pages with actual text and messages in the body of the pages, reverting your test page creations in the reverse order performed, of course. Alternatively, if you have an existing Wikimedia account in existence for the past several months, please feel free to create a confirmation edit on a Wikimedia wiki stating your account name on Miraheze. Thank you. [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 22:34, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
::::All right, will do. Thanks. [[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] ([[User talk:Lava Spire|talk]]) 22:38, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
:::::[[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] noting [[metawikimedia:Special:CentralAuth/Lava Spire Daredevil Run|this very similarly named Wikimedia account]], have you ever had ''any'' prior Miraheze accounts? I would remind you that you would do well to be upfront, honest, and candid, as ''honesty'' is ''always'' the best policy. Thanks. [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 22:41, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
::::::No, this is my first Miraheze account, and I do not have any Wikimedia accounts. I chose my name based on my favorite level in Super Mario Galaxy, The Sinking Lava Spire. [[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] ([[User talk:Lava Spire|talk]]) 23:36, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
:::::::Thank you. Interesting, that was [[metawikimedia:Special:CentralAuth/Lava Spire Daredevil Run|that user's]] [[w:Special:Permalink/970834149|inspiration]] for creating their account as well. [[mh:meta:User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 23:41, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

[[User:Lava Spire|Lava Spire]] ([[User talk:Lava Spire|talk]]) 21:04, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
:{{Not done}} per my comments in your above request, as I'm not satisfied with the number and quality of your testing edits.

:::Yes, or you can also test at [[testwikiwiki:|Test Wiki]], as the [[Special:Nuke]] feature ''may'' be included within the <code>[[TestWiki:Administrators|sysop]]</code> toolbkit, though it may also be within the <code>[[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> toolkit.

*{{RfPStatus|status=done|by=Brewster239}}<!-- Only Consuls or Crats should change this - Status=wd,done,no,held,deferred,stale - by=user who responded -->
* User: {{RFP/User|Turtle84375}}
* Requested group/permission: Admin
* Reason for requesting: To test further privileges with the Flow and WikiForum extensions. Additionally, I would like to test the capabilities of the Translations feature as an Admin. Administrator is also a prerequisite for the Bureaucrat role, and while I have no real need for 'crat at the moment, Admin experience could prove handy if I ever needed the higher permission, not just here but on other wikis as well.

:::I'm not protesting this, but I just want to say that you can test the translation, Flow and Forum extensions without administrator rights. --[[User:Anton|Anton]] ([[User talk:Anton|talk]]) 08:46, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
::::Well, it's hard to know what Turtle84375 was looking to test, but most likely, they were looking to test certain [[mw:Extension:StructuredDiscussions|Flow]] and [[mw:Extension:WikiForum|WikiForum]] functions that are ''only'' available to the <code>[[TestWiki:Administrators|sysop]]</code> group. Also, we have to remember that this is a TestWiki and <code>[[TestWiki:Administrators|sysop]]</code> is essentially akin to <code>[[TestWiki:Users|user]]</code> whereas <code>[[TestWiki:Bureaucrats|bureaucrat]]</code> is akin to <code>[[TestWiki:Autoconfirmed users|autoconfirmed]]</code> users '''who are trustworthy'''.
