Livamentu dê privileggi d'amministraturi

Sicunnu la de-admin policy, li privileggi d'amministraturi ponnu èssiri rivucati pi nun attività o usu erratu dê strummenti. In a de-admin request, normal standards for determining consensus in an RfA do not apply. Instead, "majority consensus" should be used, whereby any consensus to demote of higher than 50% is sufficient to remove the admin.

Addumannata p'addivintari amministraturi

All intending administrators must go through this process and submit themselves to RFA, including all ex-administrators who are seeking to return to their previous role.

Comu prima cosa abbisogna jiri ntâ pàggina Amministraturi/Howto e liggìrisi li nfurmazzioni ca sunnu ripurtati ddà. Doppudichì si pò turnari ccà p'effittuari la vostra addumannata ntâ sizzioni suttastanti.

  • If someone else nominated you, please accept the nomination by stating "I accept" or something similar, and signing below the nomination itself. The subpage will still need to be transcluded by you or your nominator.

Voting

Any registered user may vote here although those who have few or no previous edits may not be fully counted. It is preferable you give reasons for both Support and Oppose votes as this will help the closing bureaucrat in their decision. Greater weight is given to an argument, with supporting evidence if needed, than to a simple vote.

Promotion normally requires at least 75% in favour, with a minimum of 8 support votes. Votes from unregistered users are not counted. However, the closing bureaucrat has discretion in judging community consensus, and the decision will not necessarily be based on the raw numbers. Bureaucrats may, at their discretion, extend the period of an RfA if they feel that it will be helpful in better determining community consensus.

 Neutral comments are not counted in the vote totals for the purposes of calculating pass/fail percentages. However, such comments are part of the discussion, may persuade others, and contribute to the closing bureaucrat's understanding of community consensus.

Over the many years I have been on Commons its been rare for me to recommend any user for the mop, in AlphaLemur case this will be the first time I have ever recommended an affiliated employee. Yes you heard that right AlphaLemur is an employee of Wikimedia Australia(WMAU), and has been so for about 3 years. 12 months ago the event-organisor bit was assigned because of a genuine need to support her work with WMAU. I have watch her more closely since granting that right as I see that as part of my responsibility. AlphaLemur supports many workshops and new users relatyed to GLAM activities, occassionally I'm approached to solve an issue that a new user as unknowingly and unintentionally created. What tipped me into this nomination was observations at Wikimania in where AlphaLemur was being more than just another employee she genuinely participated many discussions and activities showing a depth of knowledge and that genuine desire to grow Commons community. I present for your consideration Alphalemur as a potential admin. Gnangarra 09:00, 13 August 2026 (UTC)

Thank you Gnangarra for your kind words and guidance over the years. I accept the nomination.
For transparency, I am an employee of Wikimedia Australia. I edit under a single account for both professional contributions and personal contributions. I have conflicts of interest clearly stated on my user pages. If the community would prefer that I separate work and volunteer activities, I am happy to do so.
I know that I am not as prolific an editor as past approved admins, but I am becoming increasingly familiar with how Wikimedia Commons works and am willing to ask and receive guidance. I have been fortunate to have attended in-person and online training and workshops. I recently received WMF funding to attend the 2026 ESEAP Conference and Wikimania 2026 so I could meet and learn from experienced Wikimedians and bring that learning back into my work supporting the Australia GLAM and Wikimedia community.
I'd like to be part of helping to build and refine the Commons platform, supporting our GLAM partners and new users. If granted adminship, I will help with clean-up and other tasks where they are needed, and as the Community directs me. Any matters where I have a conflict of interest through my WMAU role, I would leave to other admins.
I believe Wikimedia Commons has a vital role to play in the Wiki and free knowledge ecosystem, and I also believe we need a holistic understanding of how those systems interact. Thank you for your consideration. AlphaLemur (talk) 02:58, 14 August 2026 (UTC)
