Revision as of 16:27, 13 July 2016

Post staff applications here, it may take up to 1 week for your submission to be reviewed. Old applications will be moved to the archive.

Please do not apply for staff if you do not have many (or any) contributions.

Sample application

Forum account <Link>
Is autoconfirmed Yes
Reason Blah blah blah
Staff decision
  • Pictogram voting supportSupport. This user has proven to be able to create well formatted and accurate articles. -- Some guy
  • Pictogram voting opposeAgainst. This user obviously doesn't not understand the wiki guidelines, he is creating articles without adding category links. -- Some other guy
  • Pictogram voting neutralNeutral. This user has written exceptional articles but has been constantly ignoring the wiki guidelines. -- Another guy

Moritz30's application for the German translator team

Forum account http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/members/moritz30.262981/
Is autoconfirmed Yes
Reason My main language is German and I saw that the German translator team has only one member. Also I'll translate very actively and have no warning points.
Staff decision
  • Pictogram voting opposeAgainst. I'm really sorry to be rough, but I think it's too far early. Consider closing this application and re-applying in a week or so, after a bit more translation. I appreciate your willingness to contribute, though ^^ -Xbony2 (talk) 20:05, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
    Notice by Moritz30: You don't have to sorry. I know situations where you have to decide if you vote for or against an application. -- Preceding unsigned comment was added by Moritz30 (talkcontribs)
    Changing to Pictogram voting neutralNeutral to allow the vote to pass, since A) he's become active enough to be staff and B) I don't know what we would do in the event of a tie. -Xbony2 (talk) 21:16, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
    Thanks ^^ - Moritz30 (talk) 13:02, 12 July 2016 (UTC)Moritz30
  • Pictogram voting neutralNeutral. I don't really get the point of "official" translators. I mean, you already can translate pages. There's not even really a translation review system, so no official translator has to review your translations. Really it just seems like a shiny sticker. If anything, the only people whose vote actually matters here is other people who know German and can attest to the quality of your translation. *cough LuminousLizard cough* 🐇Retep998🐇🐰Bunny Overlord🐰 20:21, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
  • Pictogram voting neutralNeutral. I agree with Peter. In fact, my original vote was going to be "Neutral. I vote whatever LuminousLizard votes." -- SatanicSanta🎅FTB Wiki Admin 20:28, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
  • Pictogram voting supportSupport. I confirm the correctness of his translations without mistakes and the expression of a native speaker (e.g. User:Sokratis12GR/de, XP_Drain/de and updating ArmorPlus/de), and I agree to his request. Helping hands are welcome ... especially with so many translatable pages :/ . @Xbony: The request is only for "team member" status, NOT "Translate-Proofr". Furthermore I'll check other translations by him. --LuminousLizard FTB Wiki Staff de-N / "en-2" (talk) 20:25, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
    We don't have "translate-proofr" anymore :P -Xbony2 (talk) 21:29, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
    Currently I have the status as a "Translate-Proofr", so there is the status :P. And nevertheless his request is only for membership in the german translation team. Or should he reached the status of an "editor" first for it ? --LuminousLizard FTB Wiki Staff de-N / "en-2" (talk) 08:36, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
    It's a "ghost" group; it doesn't mean anything on your profile, and it cannot be added and cannot be removed, since the group was removed a long time ago due to an update in the translation extension. Well, it can't be removed easily; I think Curse might be able to do it with direct access to the database, but we can't seem to do anything.
    You don't need editor rights to apply for staff. He has them, anyway. I'd just like to wait a while for him to build up a few numbers and get some experience before welcoming him as an official translator; most editors/translators are users that create or translate a few pages and then leave. For staff, we want people that will stick around, and people that show that they'll stick around. Nothing against Moritz, I think he'd do fine, but I don't want to accept staff that have a high likely-hood of been kicked out for inactivity a few months later, as most new users probably would if they were accepted into staff. -Xbony2 (talk) 11:38, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Here is the list of my answers:
  • Yes, I have the editor status because I'm curator of my mods.
  • I understand you with don't wanting to accept new users' applications.
  • Usually I don't leave teams and don't become very inactive if possible.
  • BTW: My RL-Name is Matthias ;)

One easy way to prove your dedication to the wiki is to go on our IRC #FTB-Wikiconnect and stay there and be active there. I find there is a strong correlation between active editors and people that talk on our IRC. 🐇Retep998🐇🐰Bunny Overlord🐰 14:28, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
I already wanted to join the channel ^^ - Moritz30 (talk) 14:54, 7 July 2016 (UTC)Moritz30
I appreciate it, and I feel you'll be fine. But if we let all new users in, we'd have issues. My real name is Eric, but I greatly prefer Bony within this context. -Xbony2 (talk) 14:43, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
I just said my name cause my username is confusing ;) - Moritz30 (talk) 14:54, 7 July 2016 (UTC)Moritz30
I give up ! The admins know what they do ... and I'm an editor.*Lizard goes back to his quiet crafts corner* --LuminousLizard FTB Wiki Staff de-N / "en-2" (talk) 19:52, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
You're the only other german translator we have so your opinion holds the most weight, and both standard admins are effectively delegating to you. It's only the translation admin who is feeling opposed, although I imagine that'll change soon if Moritz keeps up his translation streak. 🐇Retep998🐇🐰Bunny Overlord🐰 19:57, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
And I'll tell you whether his translations are still correct. --LuminousLizard FTB Wiki Staff de-N / "en-2" (talk) 20:20, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
I'll be able to translate more tomorrow and at the weekend. And even if this application will be declined I won't stop translating. - Moritz30 (talk) 20:24, 7 July 2016 (UTC)Moritz30
Final decision

Moritz30 is now considered an official German translator. -Xbony2 (talk) 15:15, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

ImmortalPharaoh7's application for French and Arabic translator team

Forum account http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/members/immortalpharaoh7.345168/
Is autoconfirmed Yes
Reason My native language is Arabic and I began to speak French since i was in pre-school as well as i can fluently write and speak with both of these languages. Also I have been and hopefully will be an active translator.
