Requested user-rights: Administrator.

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

N Not done 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)[reply]

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)[reply]

N 'Too little information' 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)[reply]

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]

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 /mw-config 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)[reply]

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)[reply]

Yeah, but why?Jasper Deng (talk) 17:34, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus again Since I've made a lot of wikis in the last, I want to be an admin on this wiki too. HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 18:37, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That's good for experience, but there have to be other reasons too...Jasper Deng (talk) 18:38, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, sysop abilities can be helpful on a wiki where one is contributing. You are not active and you think admin is a job of fun and a good flag. Therefore, please stop argue. Tim (SVG) 18:56, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reply What are you talking about? Please clarify by including the reason why you don't want me to be an admin? HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 19:08, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There's a reason why we don't give all our legitimate users this flag.Jasper Deng (talk) 19:20, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You have already been denied, HTFFanBrandon04, and you pose a sore loser if you don't agree with Petrb's decision and our dissenting votes. Tim (SVG) 19:51, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As for that, I'm probably going to untransclude this from the main page.Jasper Deng (talk) 19:52, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Consensus again Stop arguing that you don't want me to be an admin. Please do. HTFFanBrandon04 (talk) 23:06, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Angering the developer community is a quick shortcut away from adminship. If I had the sysop bit I'd indefinitely fully protect this page because it's now technically archived.Jasper Deng (talk) 23:08, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

N Not done per previous comments. Further disruptive edits will result in your account being blocked from participating on this wiki. Peachey88 (talk) 06:08, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
