  • Personal info: Hello, I'm EVula. I've been wiki-active since February 2006, and while I was first introduced to the Foundation via the English Wikipedia, I now have several "home" wikis. I have been a sysop on the English Wikipedia since November 2006, and a bureaucrat since June 2008. I am a bureaucrat on Meta and Wikispecies, and a sysop on the English Wikisource, Commons, English Wikiquote, and Simple English Wikiquote. I have extensive cross-wiki editing experience that comes from maintaining the interwiki links on all WMF projects; as a result, I am extremely comfortable editing in numerous languages, and am familiar enough with the proceesses for language to not be a barrier.

    I'm interested in becoming a steward as the next logical step in my cross-wiki contributions; chiefly, resolving SUL issues, global speedy deletions, and username changes. Given my comfort with foreign languages, my administrative/bureaucrat experiences from the larger wikis, and the fact that I am often available for assistance on IRC, I feel I can be very efficient and helpful steward.

  • Informationen zur Person: Hallo, mein Name ist EVula. Ich bin aktiv in der Wikipedia seit Februar 2006. Die ersten Erfahrungen mit der Foundation habe ich über die englische Wikipedia gemacht, mittlerweile habe ich allerdings auch mehrere "Heim"-Wikipedias. Seit November 2006 bin ich sysop in der englischen Wikipedia, seit Juni 2008 Bürokrat ebendort. Auch auf dem Metaprojekt und bei Wikispecies bin ich Bürokrat und darüber hinaus sysop auf der englischen Wikisource, den Commons, der englischen Wikiquote, und bei der Simple English Wikiquote. Dementsprechend habe ich vertiefte Erfahrungen im Arbeiten mit den Wikiprojekten untereinander; zumal ich des Öfteren die Interwikilinks auf allen Projekten der WMF (Wikimedia Foundation) setze und bearbeite. Ich liebe es, in den verschiedenen Sprachprojekten zu arbeiten und aufgrund meiner großen Erfahrung sollten Sprachbarrieren für mich nicht zu einem Problem werden.

    Ich möchte Steward werden, da dies der nächstlogische Schritt in meiner Wikipediakarriere ist; hauptsächlich, um Urheberrechtsverletzungen zu klären, Schnelllöschanträgen nachzugehen und Nutzernamen zu ändern. Aufgrund meiner Erfahrungen mit fremden Sprachen sowie meinen Erfahrungen als Administrator und Bürokrat aus den größeren Wikis und meiner hohen Verfügbarkeit für Probleme und Hilfestellungen, denke ich, dass ich ein sehr effektiver und hilfreicher Steward werden kann.

Estoy wiki-activo desde febrero de 2006 y, si bien mi primer acercamiento a la fundación fue a través de la Wikipedia en inglés, me encuentro ahora en muchos wikis. Soy un sysop en la Wikipedia en inglés desde noviembre de 2006 y un burócrata desde junio de 2008. Soy burócrata en Meta y Wikispecies y sysop en las Wikisource, Commons, Wikiquote en inglés y en la Wikiquote de inglés simple. Tengo gran experiencia en edición entre wikis, obtenida de mantener los vínculos interwiki en todos los proyectos de la fundación Wikimedia; como resultado, me siento extremadamente cómodo al editar en numerosas lenguas y estoy lo suficientemente familiarizado con los procesos para que la lengua no sea una barrera. Me interesa convertirme en steward como el siguiente paso lógico entre mis contribuciones entre wikis; particularmente, en resolver problemas del SUL, supresiones globales inmediatas y cambios de nombres de usuario. Dados mi comodidad con los idiomas extranjeros, mis experiencias como administrador y burócrata de los más grandes wikis; y el hecho de que suelo estar disponible para asistencias a través de IRC, siento que puedo ser un steward muy eficiente y útil.

  • Renseignements personnels: Salut, je m'appelle EVula. Je suis actif sur wiki depuis février 2006 et, bien que mon premier contact à la Fondation se soit fait par le wikipédia anglophone, j'ai maintenant plusieurs pages 'home' wiki. Je suis administrateur sur le wikipédia anglophone depuis novembre 2006, et bureaucrate depuis juin 2008. Je suis bureaucrate sur Meta et Wikispecies, et administrateur pour le wikisource anglophone, les commons, le wikiquote anglophone, et le wikiquote en anglais simplifié. J'ai une grande expérience de l'édition dans les nombreux wiki venant du maintien des liens inter-wiki sur tous les projets de la WMF; en conséquence, je suis très à l'aise lorsqu'il s'agit d'éditer en de nombreuses langues, et je suis assez familier avec le processus pour que le langage ne soit pas une barrière.

    Je suis intéressé à devenir steward comme la prochaine étape logique sur mes contributions multi-wiki; en particulier, aider à résoudre les problèmes qui se posent avec le SUL, les suppressions globales immédiates et le changement des noms d'utilisateur. Etant donné mon aisance avec les langues étrangères, mes expériences en tant qu'administrateur et bureaucrate dans les wiki majeurs, et le fait que je suis souvent disponible pour de l'assistance via IRC, je pense que je peut-être un steward très efficace et utile.

  • Informazioni personali: Salve, mi chiamo EVula. Sono attivo sulle wiki da febbraio 2006, e sebbene il mio primo approccio verso la Foundation sia stato tramite la Wikipedia in lingua inglese, ora ho diverse home wiki. SOno amministratore della Wikipedia in lingua inglese da novembre 2006 e burocrate da giugno 2008. Sono burocrate su Meta e Wikispecies, amministratore su Wikisource in lingua inglese, Commons, Wikiquote in lingua inglese, e Wikiquote "Simple English". Ho una lunga esperienza di editing nelle varie wiki che deriva dalla manutenzione degli interwiki su tutti i progetti della WMF; pertanto mi trovo a mio agio nelle modifiche in numerose lingue e sono ormai a conoscenza di molti accorgimenti per superare le barriere linguistiche.

    Sono interessato a diventare uno steward come passo logico successivo nella mia partecipazione alle varie wiki; in particolar modo per aiutare a risolvere le varie problematiche che emergono con il SUL, le cancellazioni immediate globali e le rinominazioni. Per via del mio agio rispetto alle lingue straniere, per l'esperienza amministrativa maturata come admin/burocrate nelle maggiori wiki, e per il fatto che sono spesso reperibile per assistenza sui canali IRC, ritengo di poter essere uno steward assai efficiente e d'aiuto.

  • 候補者の情報: こんにちは、EVula と申します。ウィキでの活動は2006年2月からで、財団とは英語版ウィキペディアを通じて出会いましたが、現在では「ホーム」のウィキがいくつかあります。2006年11月から英語版ウィキペディアの管理者を、2008年6月からはビューロクラットをしています。メタとウィキスピーシーズのビューロクラットでもあり、また、英語版ウィキソース、コモンズ、英語版ウィキクォート、そしてシンプル英語版ウィキクォートの管理者です。私は財団の全プロジェクトでインターウィキリンクのメンテナンスをしていたため、広範囲にわたるウィキの編集経験があります。その結果、私は多くの言語で編集することが何らの苦痛でもありませんし、言語を障害としないようにするプロセスに十分精通しています。

    私は複数ウィキ間での編集活動における次の論理的なステップとしてスチュワードになることに関心を持っています。何よりも第一に、SUL問題の解決、グローバルの即時削除、そして利用者名の変更です。私の外国語の能力と、比較的規模の大きいウィキにおける管理者ないしビューロクラットとしての活動経験、そしてIRCですぐに連絡が取れることが多いという事実がありますので、とても能率的で有能なスチュワードになれると思っています。

  • Informacje osobiste: Cześć jestem EVula. Jestem aktywny na wiki od lutego 2006 i pierwsze doświadczenia z Fundacja zdobyłem poprzez angielską Wikipedię. Obecnie mam kilka "domowych" wiki. Jestem sysopem na angielskiej Wikipedii od listopada 2006 i biurokratą od czerwca 2008. Jestem biurokratą na Meta i Wikispecies i administratorem na angielskich Wikiźródłach, Commons oraz Wikicytatach po angielsku i w uproszczonym angielskim. Mam duże doświadczenie w pracy międzyprojektowej, które pochodzi z utrzymywania linków interwiki na wszystkich projektach WMF. W rezultacie jest mi niezmiernie łatwo edytować w wielu językach i jestem pewien, że język nie będzie bedzie dla mnie problemem.

    Chęć bycia stewardem to następny logiczny krok mojego zaangażowania międzyprojektowego; głównie by rozwiązywać problemy z SUL, globalnym ekspresowym kasowaniem i zmianami nazw uzytkowników. Dzięki mojemu obyciu z językami obcymi, doświadczeniem admistratora/biurokraty z dużych wikipedii oraz temu, ze jestem często dostępny na IRCu czuję, że mogę być bardzo efektywnym i pomocnym stewardem.

  • Informações pessoais: Olá, eu sou o EVula. Tenho sido um usuário activo da wikimédia desde 2006, e fui primeiramente apresentado a Fundação através da Wikipédia inglesa, e actualmente tenho várias wiki "locais". Sou administrador na Wikipédia inglesa desde Novembro de 2006, e burocrata desde Junho de 2008. Sou burocrata no Meta e Wikispecies, e administrador no Wikisource em inglês, Commons, Wikiquote em inglês, e Wikiquote em inglês simples. Tenho uma extensa experiência em edições cross-wiki, que advém da manutenção das interwikis entre os vários projectos da WMF; como resultado, estou extremamente confortável em editar em numerosas línguas, e suficientemente familiarizado com os processos para que as línguas não sejam um obstáculo.

    Estou interessado em tornar-me um Stewart, como um passo lógico nas minhas contribuições cross-wiki, e especialmente, para resolver problemas de SUL, eliminações rápidas globais, e renomeações de usuários. Dado o meu conforto com línguas estrangeiras, à minha experiência administrativa/burocratica das maiores wikis, e o facto de estar maioritariamente disponível para assistência pelo IRC, julgo que poderei ser um stewart muito eficiente e prestativo.

  • Личная информация: Привет, я - EVula. Я активен в википроектах с февраля 2006 года, изначально познакомился с проектами Фонда через английскую Википедию, а теперь для меня сразу несколько разделов являются "домашними". Я являюсь администратором в английской Википедии с ноября 2006 года, и бюрократом с июня 2008 года. Я бюрократ в Метавики и Викивидах, и администратор в английской Викитеке, на Викискладе, английском Викицитатнике, и Викицитатнике на Simple English. У меня есть опыт активной кросс-вики работы, проистекающий из обслуживания интервики-ссылок всех проектов Фонда; в результате, мне весьма комфортно редактировать на любом языке, и я знаком с процессом редактирования достаточно, чтобы языки не были барьером в общении.

    Я заинтересован в получении флага стюарда как в следующем логичном шаге в моём кросс-вики вкладе; в основном для решения вопросов, связанных с SUL, глобальными быстрыми удалениями, переименованиями участников. Благодаря комфортности в моём отношении к иностранным языкам, моему опыту администратора/бюрократа в больших викиразделах и тому факту, что я часто доступен для запросов о помощи в IRC, я чувствую, что смогу быть очень эффективным и полезным стюардом.

  2. Imho the user has not enough experience, --birdy geimfyglið (:> )=| 00:08, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  3. This might be long, and I apologize for the lengthy statement in advance. First, I think EVula should not be a steward because he has too many roles throughout the Wikimedia Foundation already, such as bureaucrat in en-wikiquote, en-wikipedia, etc. administrator in en-wikipedia, en-commons, etc. This would make him be seen as a "hat collector," in my personal opinion. This could lead to many conflicts of interest. Second, he has no knowledge of other languages. Since the Wikimedia Foundation is a multi-lingual organization, stewards are seen to have some multilingual knowledge. As a steward, you cannot depend on Google and Yahoo Translations to investigate a case or checkuser someone. Third, EVula can be seen as sometimes uncivil to people (i.e. "Hi, I am EVula, and you are not"). This can confuse and frustrate some people who are trying to plead their case. To the general public, Wikimedia/Wikipedia already has a seemingly negative viewpoint as being unreliable and people who are rude. Sorry. miranda 00:15, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    I was going to say exactly the same thing, even though I'm not allowed to vote (despite my over 1,000 article edits on en.wiki) Xasodfuih 00:23, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    Are you sure? Check your eligibility here. NuclearWarfare 00:28, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    Just wanted to clarify: the "I'm EVula and you're not" line is a Chevy Chase reference. No offense meant, I just found it amusing (and true). EVula // talk // ☯ // 05:01, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    I can understand why one might consider EVula to be lacking in tact at times. However I am certain it is not out of indifference towards civility and general politeness, so much as it is of his general (for lack of a better word) witty nature; which understandably is misinterpreted at times. Perhaps this might not make him a perfect stewart candidate, but EVula does carry himself with a level of diplomacy when dealing with more official matters (eg. bureaucrat statements on en.wikipedia). Additionally, I don't personally see his candidacy for stewartship as the next logical step up, as he does have significant experience on other Wiki's and I see his adminship/cratship on Wikipedia, Wikisource, etc. as a sign that he can be trusted. I am not eligible to vote in this election, but I feel EVula is worthy of the trust of the Wikia community. That, of course, is my opinion and open to disagreement. Master&Expert 08:27, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    I am sure that you meant Wikimedia community, because we aren't Wikia. :) miranda 23:33, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Reluctant oppose - Per Miranda's first point, and the lack of SWMT or checkuser work. NuclearWarfare 00:20, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Sorry, EVula, but this time, I cannot support. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 00:22, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  6. I'm in perfect agreement with User:Miranda. In my interactions with EVula I have found him to be impolite. Also, I have seen him making polemic comments. Thus, I have to oppose regretfully. — Aitias // discussion 00:27, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  7. I am uncomfortable with EVula's position on desysopping. Even though EVula, to his credit, makes clear that he is more interested in other activities, since there is considerable push on some wikis to involve stewards more in the desysopping process, I must exercise caution and oppose. Chick Bowen 00:31, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  8. Per Miranda´s second point. --Seha 00:34, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  9. GlassCobra 00:38, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  10. No. Being a steward doesn't mean you get promoted. Not much about what you are going to do with the stewardship. Romaine 01:02, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  23. Stewards should speak more than one language (although English is quite helpful of course) and I echo concerns of job-collecting and minor rudeness. Somehow, as much as I appreciate EVula's work, I somehow cannot picture him as a stewart... SoWhy 11:12, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  30. Simply because I expect stewards to speak more than one language. EVula is a fine candidate and has done a lot of good work. Rje 16:04, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  31. Only one language+too many rights. Bence My Talk 16:13, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
  32. Monolingual, already has too many duties in English projects — NickK 19:19, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  33. Too many hats already and concur with miranda's stance. --Caspian blue 20:47, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  34. Oppose Oppose: (re issues involving an RfB on Simple English Wikiquote); sorry, EVula.
    Misconstruing/misquoting: EVula said "[Coppertwig]...has already stated that they will not close the RfB at all (much less actually perform the promotion)", but I replied "Correction: I did not state that I would not perform the promotion." What I had actually said was here and here. Since the other administrators on the project don't have bureaucrat buttons, I find it hard to see how that can reasonably be interpreted as a refusal to perform the promotion (e.g. after a non-bureaucrat closure). Regardless of what the procedure ought to be, a steward would need to be able to understand communication about this distinction. If it wasn't clear, EVula could have asked me for clarification or quoted me word-for-word.
    Information that didn't pan out (maybe because of the above). EVula said, "the stewards can perform the promotion", but when the request was made a few days later it was turned down by a steward.
    Contradicting themself: EVula said "local non-bureaucrats should never be the ones to close an RfX", but earlier in the same discussion about the same RfB EVula had said "I'm a bureaucrat on several projects and would be happy to close it (despite not being a bureaucrat here)". and [1] "If I hadn't already participated in it, I'd be more than happy to close it". ☺Coppertwig(talk) 22:00, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
