Hi all, I'd like to request for sysop flag on Meta. Main reasons are 1) primarily I can block vandals quicker and clean up instead of having to poke people on IRC to do it. I'm not sure how this really works/applies, but I'd like to have the local flag in case anyone is not happy about it. 2) also I did quite some CentralNotice-related edits, given the strange fact that zh has 9 variants, and things usually doesn't come out right. To be correct policy-wise, I'd also like to have the local flag.

Oh a quick intro, I am a steward, and locally I am administrator and bureaucrat on zhwikipedia.

Thank you. --Bencmq (talk) 13:53, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Bencmq is a dedicated and capable user, and Meta can only benefit from granting him the extra bit. I am sure he'll make a fine Meta admin. Snowolf ^{How can I help?} 14:06, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Always been my personal policy that active stewards should be welcome to be admins on Meta. --Herby ^{talk thyme} 14:29, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Obviously an eligible candidate. Meta-Wiki would benefit from his adminship. πr² (t • c) 14:31, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  The Meta RfC mentioned below is now policy, but I still support this request. πr² (t • c) 05:00, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

•  Support per Snowolf and Herby. –BruTe ^talk 15:02, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment As Bencmq mentions WM:MSR I shall note, again, that I drafted a new policy to substitute that old one. The draft can be found at Meta:Meta–Steward relationship/Rewrite; and it is being discussed at this RfC. If that policy went live, RfAs like this won't be needed anymore I think. -- MarcoAurelio (talk) 15:09, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

•  Support and I think such RFA's are fine, esp. if a steward wants to keep this flag after leaving office. Courcelles 23:55, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment Echoing what Marco said above, please consider supporting or critiquing this RfC if you feel there should not be a need for RfAs like this one. It seems to have some support, but input from more metapedians would be very helpful. -Pete F (talk) 00:00, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
