Wiktionary:Votes/sy-2022-02/User:J3133 for admin

Nomination: I hereby nominate J3133 (talk • contribs) as a local English Wiktionary Administrator.

• J3133 has been around for a couple of years now and is quite experienced, boasting around 35000 edits next to his/her name. I lost count of the times that J3133 quietly fixed errors regarding template arguments or categorization that I had just made; s/he is like one of the tireless Oompa Loompas that keep the factory going.
• J3133 patrols the recent changes and regularly fights vandalism. As s/he lacks the necessary permissions, this often meant manually flagging vandalic entries as {{speedy}} (as can be seen here); furthermore, edits already undone by J3133 don't appear as patrolled to other patrollers/sysops. For these reasons, it would be of benefit to all of us recent changes patrollers to grant J3133 the necessary permissions. Apart from that, J3133 has repeatedly proven to have a very accurate understanding of Wiktionary's policies, most importantly our Criteria for Inclusion. All in all, a great editor and just as great a candidate for a future sysop.

1. Oppose. An admin should also typically work in several languages and actively take part in community discussions. The need for having the delete button alone should be no reason for nominating an otherwise industrious user for sysophood. ·~ dictátor·mundꟾ 11:30, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

   • Re " should also typically work with several languages": No, what makes you think that?
   • Re " actively take part in community discussions": The nominee does that:
   • Re " need for having the delete button alone should be no reason for nominating": In this case, it's also about the block button and the revert button. Regularly being involved in combating vandalism is a sufficient reason for adminship, in my eyes at least. — Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 11:43, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

   A requirement to be able to work in multiple languages would disqualify most existing admins. DonnanZ (talk) 13:52, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

   Just taking a glance at WT:Admin would tell you that most admins work in multiple languages. ·~ dictátor·mundꟾ 16:03, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

2. Abstain: I know it's a short month, but the voting period seems to be excessive. It used to be a fortnight. DonnanZ (talk) 08:42, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

   No, it didn't: WT:VP states "Votes should last about a month, usually, or two weeks for bots.". Thadh (talk) 10:33, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

   Maybe you weren't around then, historically it was a fortnight. DonnanZ (talk) 22:06, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

   If with 'historically' you mean mid-2017, then sure, but it's strange you're still upset about that. Also, it doesn't look like there was ever a rule about two-week long votes. Thadh (talk) 23:27, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

3. Abstain I have no doubts as to everyone's judgement on this user, but I've had few interactions with them, not enough to form an opinion. Vininn126 (talk) 19:18, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
