Creol (checkuser)
[change source]Creol has been an active user and powerful admin here. I request him to become a checkuser too. - Huji reply 14:29, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Candidate's acceptance: I accept the nomination. -- Creol(talk) 15:34, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- You now have checkUser access. Please subscribe to checkUser-l, the private mailing list for checkUsers. If you use IRC, you can contact Dmcdevit or Jdforrester for access to the private freenode channel #wikimedia-checkuser. Thanks. —Pathoschild 18:12:46, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Majorly (talk) 19:39, 19 September 2007 (UTC) But as per M7, I'd like you to volunteer to have your access removed should you become inactive/not use your rights. Regards, and good luck![reply]
- --Herbythyme 10:51, 20 September 2007 (UTC) - however I too would echo Majorly's words[reply]
- I strongly disagree with him on important matters but I must confess that, among the three candidates, he is the one who masters the best our wiki specificities. ONaNcle 13:40, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I support this user because M7, Majorly and Herbythme do. These are users that I trust and their word is good. I do not think that you have to have a deep understanding of IPs to be effective. Checkusers have ways to share knowledge. We help each other out a lot. I have learned a lot from my fellow checkusers and I look forward to sharing with new checkusers in the future. I hope you choose to count my support. ++Lar: t/c 13:43, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose
[change source]While I see Creol as a terrific administrator, I just wonder if I could trust him to be a checkuser. M7 is a wikimedia steward which obviously means he qualifies for that position, but Creol hasn't yet demonstrated his ability to be trusted to be a checkuser. I've checked his other user accounts on other wikis (including commons and meta), but he only has sysop rights in here. Meta checkuser policies states that checkusers are the most trusted people on the wiki, but Creol lacks somehow lacks some stuff to be a checkuser. --§ Snake311 (T + C) 21:42, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Have you seen something from him which makes you not to trust him? - Huji reply 12:43, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Question
[change source]Do you think you have sufficient knowledge of IP addresses, proxies etc to be able to fulfil this role well? Majorly (talk) 00:13, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I feel I do. I have been dealing with IPs since the days when people primarily used command line applications to do the tasks of tracing and identifying. I am comfortable with proxy identification, both purposefully created (Anonymizers) and accidental (poorly configured systems usually straight out of the box). Also I am familiar with WMF's policy on privacy of such sensitive personal information which is a part of doing the job of CU. -- Creol(talk) 07:27, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
