I want to be an administrator, so I can block and unblock, delete, restore, etc. I will not vandalize. So such, I would do anything an administrator would do, plus create my own wiki. HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 20:05, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Hello, you don't need to be sysop on mediawiki.org in order to create a new wiki. Just download the mediawiki package and install it on some web server. Petrb (talk) 12:34, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

We don't give away sysop here on MW unless the person can demonstrate a need for it. Please be bold The project of the MediaWiki is free and anyone that meets the requirements can install it, set it up and create and configure their own wiki (I've done it like 10,000 times). However, I want to be an admin on this wiki, because the account you create in the MediaWiki assistant is already an admin (see above). HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 02:29, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * We don't have Extension:Farmer here. I'm not quite getting the point you're trying to make here; could you please clarify?Jasper Deng (talk) 02:41, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

❌ Some administrator may just give me admin privileges, but do not know what you are talking about. Please clarify? HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 05:26, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by "I want to be an admin on this wiki, because the account you create in the MediaWiki assistant is already an admin (see above)"?Jasper Deng (talk) 05:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Reply It means I want to be an administrator on the MediaWiki website only. The MediaWiki assistant is the assistant which is part of the  directory in your MediaWiki folder and you need to use if when opening your wiki for the first time.Any account that is created using this assistant is an administrator and the owner of the wiki.

 * Yeah, but the thing is, why do you need the bit on this site? How is the install process related to the sysop bit?Jasper Deng (talk) 16:24, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

Consensus I need to block and unblock users, delete and restore pages on this wiki. The name "HTFFanBrandon04" means I'm a huge Happy Tree Friends fan. HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 17:32, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but why?Jasper Deng (talk) 17:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
