¿Cómo convertirme en administrador?

Primero, considera si convertirse en un administrador es la mejor manera para poder contribuir en el proyecto. La experiencia demuestra que los contribuyentes reducen sus contribuciones debido a la sobrecarga de mantenimiento después de que se convierten en administradores, y esto , es lo que menos queremos. Así que por favor contribuye con tus mejores habilidades y entiende que hay muchas formas de conseguir crédito comunitario además de ser un administrador. El estatus de administrador en Commons no es un honor para aquellos contribuidores con ediciones pendientes, pero sólo proporciona un conjunto de herramientas adicionales para personas que quieran limpiar.

Considere si realmente necesita las herramientas de administración para el trabajo que le gustaría hacer. La comunidad no entrega las herramientas a aquellos que no necesitan o que no puedan hacer uso de ellos. Por lo tanto, si usted necesita las herramientas sólo por un período limitado, o con el fin de limpiar sus propias contribuciones, por favor, simplemente pida a un administrador existente para que le ayude.

Se espera que los administradores permanezcan razonablemente activo por aquí y si después de la designación se deja de usar las herramientas de en extensión de período tu puedes automáticamente perder el permiso bajo nuestra de-política de administradores. Puedes esperar a un administrador de Commons en una medida razonable (una página de usuario que pide a la gente a dejar mensajes para usted en algún otro proyecto no se considera una práctica aceptable para un administrador).

Más información acerca del rol de la comunidad de administradores puedes encontrarlo en la guía de administradores

We do not have any hard and fast rules setting out the minimum period you should have been active on Commons in order to apply for adminship, nor any minimum number of edits. However, the requirement that you be an experienced and trusted member of the Commons community typically means that prior to applying you should have had sufficient breadth and depth of experience here to be able to demonstrate that. If you are an admin or an experienced user on another project, by all means mention that, but bear in mind that off-Commons experience is on its own not normally enough.

Although not mandatory, it is often a good idea to talk to existing admins to get feedback about your experience and approach. You may be able to get another admin to nominate you, although self-nominations are also allowed.

When you request adminship, the community will consider your ability to fill the admin role. Individual Commons contributors may have varying expectations of candidates, and you may wish to review some archived applications to get a sense of what people are looking for. As a practical matter, users often want to see a reasonable level of involvement in admin-type activities such as deletion requests, accurately tagging images as copyright violations, new user patrolling, and so on. Users often want to be satisfied that you are an integral member of the Commons community and will look at the way you interact with others, on user talk pages and elsewhere.

La discusión pública y votos

Adminship nominations remain open for at least seven days, for votes and comments, unless withdrawn early as unsuccessful. The period starts when you posted your nomination (if a self-nom) or when you posted your acceptance (if somebody else nominated you). At the end of that period the nomination will be closed by a bureaucrat who will either grant or decline promotion. The nomination may be left open for more than seven days, or a longer period specified, should a bureaucrat consider that desirable.

As a guideline, promotion normally requires at least 75% in favour, with a minimum of 8 support votes. Votes from unregistered users are not numerically counted, although such users may still offer their opinions on the candidate. However, the closing bureaucrat has discretion in judging community consensus, and the decision will not necessarily be based on the raw numbers. Among other things, the closing bureaucrat may take into account the strength of any arguments presented and the experience and knowledge of the commenting users. For example, the comments and votes of users who have zero or few contributions on Commons may at the bureaucrat's discretion be discounted.

If the nomination is successful, the closing bureaucrat will grant the applicant admin rights.

The request for adminship

When you are ready, make sure you have a userpage, enable email in your preferences, then apply, or ask your nominator to apply, back on the main Commons:Administrators page.
