Revision as of 19:29, 6 May 2007 by David Gerard (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)#wikipedia-en-admins is a closed channel for administrators on the English Misplaced Pages.
Purpose
The channel was created by Danny to deal with urgent living biography issues. Foundation staff and board members will often go onto the channel with a problem needing solving.
Conduct on the channel
The channel is private, but logs do leak. Comport yourself in a collegiate manner. Try not to disparage editors under discussion, it'll get back to them. You're an admin, you were picked for your judgement.
The channel is useful for double-checking yourself, but don't decide things based on an IRC discussion without noting it on WP:ANI for review. You might be wrong.
How to get access
- Get an IRC cloak here. (Sean then processes these by hand.)
- Request access on User talk:David Gerard, giving your cloak. (David then processes these by hand.)
David and JamesF would quite like all en:wp admins on this channel, particularly new ones. Though IRC is not mandatory to being an admin, and if anyone tries to make it a criterion for support at RFA they should be ignored as hard as possible.
