User rights
Hi Zppix. I am just wondering why you took away my bureaucrat role here. I know I haven't always reverted all my tests but I feel that I have been responsible with the bureaucrat permission. Bugambilia (talk) 20:39, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Bugambilia: Frankly, you shouldnt of been given it to begin with. I have had multiple users with concerns of your use of majority of your rights. Furthermore, as a consul I do not believe you have shown enough responsibility to have said user rights. If you wish to appeal you may do so by letting me or another consul know and we as consuls will discuss. I also want you to know I’m not doing this based upon my own feelings, but my opinion as a Consul, a trusted volunteer of the global community, and as a CVT member. I do wish the best for you on the wiki farm, and do welcome you to seek guidance from me or another trusted volunteer if you wish. Zppix (Meta | CVT Member | talk to me) 20:43, 20 April 2020 (UTC)
- I see. Thanks for the explanation. I'll wait a few days and test responsibly as an admin before trying to get bureaucrat back. Bugambilia (talk) 01:40, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
- I am not trying to be a jerk here, but you have had your rights removed multiple times and you will probably need to wait more than a few days before getting your 'crat rights back. My advice is revert your tests, listen to people when they ask you to do or don't do something, and use your rights responsibly. If you do that for maybe a month or so, then I am sure that the community will trust you again. If you have any questions about how we do things around here please don't be afraid to ask.

Patrol
Hello, Zppix. Please, mark edits as patrolled once handled. (like Special:Diff/32269) See User talk:Gomdoli#Patrol. Thanks. Gomdoli (talk) 07:30, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
- Hi, while I see your point, I would also like to note that I’m not required to do so. Zppix (Meta | CVT Member | talk to me) 07:47, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
- Marking revisions as patrolled is a good practice and, personally, it's something I try and do before handling requests. However, as @Zppix: noted, it isn't specifically required of Consuls or Bureaucrats. Hope that clarifies. Dmehus (talk) 15:35, 5 November 2020 (UTC)
RfP
Hi Zppix, when approving requests for RfP, please do your best to use {{AdminAcceptRfP}} and {{BureaucratAcceptRfP}}. These templates are on the wiki for a reason, so could you please do your best to use them when approving requests? Thanks! User:BrandonWM/signature 21:20, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
- @BlackWidowMovie0: I realize your note to @Zppix: regarding {{AdminAcceptRfP}} and {{BureaucratAcceptRfP}} was made in good-faith, but I would just note that they are completely optional and not required to be used when granting rights. I personally find them useful, mainly since they use the typical wording of my replies, but I do suspect most bureaucrats and consuls probably will not use them. Hope that helps.
