Wikidata:Requests for permissions/Administrator/Od Mishehu

Please note that I closed this one two days ahead; if any of the crats disagrees feel free to reopen.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:56, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm not really a fan of early clusures as the candidates are responsible for their own requests. If they feel they have no chance, they can withdraw. But this is just my personal opinion so, that I'm okay with others doing it. Regards, Vogone talk 11:55, 24 April 2013 (UTC)

Vogone pretty much summed up my thoughts. Legoktm (talk) 02:31, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

And I agree with those thoughts too.  Hazard-SJ  ✈  02:34, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations! You just violated a recently approved guideline. Completely unneeded, in my opinion since we have a third, and in a few hours also our fourth bureaucrat. I'm not that happy with this situation but it is indeed your decision, when and how to violate community approved guidelines. Regards, Vogone talk 18:39, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

I actually voted, so that my promotion (if it occurs) is not going to change anything in this case. I think it is only Bene*, and this is actually why I thought we need more bureaucrats.--Ymblanter (talk) 18:50, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure also Bene* would've done it. Regards, Vogone talk 18:51, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Perhaps in future, no crats should participate in discussions where they are expected to promote. Advanced permissions and rights removal (excluding sysop) could have bureaucrat participation so we can avoid a situation similar to this in future. John F. Lewis (talk) 18:55, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
