Request a coach :: Coaching volunteers :: Update your status

Quicklinks    (edit)
Shortcut

Thank you for your interest in Misplaced Pages's admin coaching program. Hopefully you won't have to wait too long! We're in the process of re-organising at the moment and are starting a new system of requests.

Coaching page management

Requests are split into three sections - current requests, older or dormant requests, and matched requests.

New requests Are added to the current request list in date order, newest at the end. Coaches will contact people at or near the top of the list, to ensure older requests are attended sooner. Details of how to add a request and how to respond to one are given below.
Requests which seem inactive Either no match has been agreed despite several weeks of being posted, or because they are withdrawn by the requestor, or non-responsive or withdrawn, and where there is no sign of ongoing activity or interest, are moved periodically to the "older requests" section. This may be done once or twice a month by any editor.
Requests which are successfully matched Should be moved to the "matched requests" section, and a note appended of the admin(s) who will be coaching and the date. Also remember to update your status. When the coaching effectively ends, please also append a note of this and the date of ending.
Eg: 17. example (talk · contribs) Please help me. example 21:00, 1 May 2007 (UTC). coaching agreed jimbo wales 07:53, 4 May 2007. Coaching effectively ended user stated no longer needed jimbo wales 14:26, 17 May 2007.
Requests which are temporarily dormant For example editor is offline or on holiday, please append a note to this effect (and expected return date) so that your request is not inadvertantly treated as dead or non-responsive.
Eg: 18. example (talk · contribs) Please help me. example 21:00, 1 May 2007 (UTC). Please keep alive back in 3 weeks (mid June). example 12:42, 3 May 2007.
Reactivated requests For example request was moved to older requests or was dropped, and editor now wishes to reactivate the request again, move to current requests and append a note to this effect.
Eg: 19. example (talk · contribs) Please help me. example 21:00, 1 May 2007 (UTC). Reactivated 3 June 2007, sorry, didn't see offer of coaching last time, had psychotic episode, now feeling ready again. Reactivated request. example 12:42, 17 June 2007.

Requestors: Adding a request

New requests should be entered in the following syntax to the bottom of the list:

  • #{{AWBUser|USERNAME}} ''optional comment'' ~~~~

Coaches: Responding to a request

If you wish, you may contact a user at or near the top of the list. Leave a message under that person's name here, indicating you have contacted that person. If coaching commences, move that name to "matched requests" and append the details and current date, then update your status.

In general, to help others, please note if you contact a requestor (by appending "Contacted - ~~~~ to the line, for example). If there is no response after some time, then note this too, and consider whether the request looks ongoing, or whether to move it to older/inactive requests.

If a requestor is missing something off the basic checklist (for example, no edit summaries, or 95% of edits are of one type), then let them know on their talk page, mark the request as responded to with a note as to the comment, and move it to inactive requests for the time being.

Checklist before requesting coaching

Quick list of some "things to get right before requesting coaching" - these are basics that you should get right before seeking coaching, as they will provide useful experience:

  1. Set up an email account for yourself (see user preferences)
  2. Ensure you are regularly using edit summaries (if you sometimes forget, there's a useful setting under 'preferences' to ensure you don't overlook this!)
  3. Understand, use as appropriate, and be consistently respectful of Misplaced Pages's basic policies, for example neutral point of view, original research, deletion policy, copyright issues, consensus, handling of vandalism, civil (if sometimes forthright) speech, and dispute handling. (You don't need to know every detail, it's not an exam, but you'll need to have gained a pretty good sense of policy awareness.)
  4. Involve yourself with multiple 'areas' of Misplaced Pages, not just one narrow focus. Misplaced Pages is both an encyclopedia and a community. (Basic principle: 5000 anti-vandal edits and nothing else won't prove much about policy awareness, or other topics where as an admin you'll need to show competence.) You don't have to do everything, but you should aim to show some breadth of experience. Ideas for typical areas include: writing and improving articles, helping new users, involvement on community or project pages, helping with policy or projects, assisting sorting out disputes, providing opinions, adding photographs for articles, and patrolling common pages such as recent changes or AFD (including with bots, if allowed).
  5. If you have a track record of issues yourself (for example 3RR violations, or conduct RFCs), look at it, and try to put it right. (Adminship has a high standard and a demanding and searching inquiry; past problems may need considerable evidence and time with no problems to show that they are firmly and permanently in the past.)

If you aren't doing the basics above, then the first comment of any coach will probably be to advise you to get into doing so! If you already are, or you want help on this aspect as well, then ask!

Coaching requests

Current requests

Requests older than around 6 weeks without indication of current interest, may be moved to "older requests" by any editor. If you are still interested, please append to your request a note that the request is still active and the current date, and move it back to this section in date order.

Please read the basic checklist (above) first, and then if you'd benefit from coaching, add new requests to the end of this section. Older requests - we need to know if you are still interested. If you are, copy/paste --''still interested as of ~~~~'' after your name.


  1. ChrisDHDR (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) - I'd like to see where are my strengths and weaknesses so that I could improve my contributions to Misplaced Pages... and possibly get promoted. ChrisDHDR 13:56, 31 August 2007 (UTC) - Still interested 08:59, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
  2. AxG (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) Would like to be an Admin one day to protect Misplaced Pages from vandels, and improve other areas as well. --AxG 23:01, 27 November 2007 (UTC) - Contacted SGGH 11:30, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
  3. Jkspratt (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I'm hoping to work towards Adminship, at the moment I'm spending a lot of time on new page patrol. --Boreas 23:40, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

  6. jdlddw (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I would like to help Misplaced Pages. I think with a good coaches help I can be a great administrator. Jdlddw (talk) 01:00, 13 December 2007 (UTC)jdlddw
  7. Ukt-zero (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) As an active member of the recent changes patrol I deal with vandalism and good-faith "practice" edits a lot - I enjoy helping new members and I have a very easy-going personality ... I'm all over the place as far as my areas of interest and I frequently let myself get 'sucked into the stream' by wiki-links and the random article articles button, which lead me to patrolling a wide variety of articles and improving them by adding information to them, cleaning them up so they are easier to read, correcting grammar, context and formatting as well as constantly removing vandalism ... I would LOVE to help with the admin duties, but I won't apply for the position until I get coaching from a current admin because I am determined not to nominate myself - I would like the current admin members to want me to join them ... if I am granted an admin position, I will use the admin functions sparingly and with other admin advice whenever possible - and it would be nice to be able to help out other users when they need an admin – I’m very anxious to get a coach …I'm usually on during the ‘’’graveyard shift’’’ Minnesota (CST) time – thanks Ukt-zero (talk) -- Ukt-zero (talk) 10:17, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
  8. PwnerELITE (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I would like to help Misplaced Pages, and I think that I may do that best as an adminisistrator. I try to eliminate vandalism when I can. However, I have little time to spare, though, and I would recommend having another student while having me. PwnerELITE (talk) 04:28, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
  9. cf38 (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I've done a lot on the wiki, such as reverting with WP:TW, using WP:FRIENDLY, participating in AFD's and warning users and reporting them to WP:AIV. I want to nominate myself as an admin as I have read up on the policies, but I'd like some coaching to help me really get it in thr bag!cf38 22:17, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
  10. F9T (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) Nominated for adminship earlier today, don't think I am ready, but I am always up for a challenge! Trying to run a tournament known as the Wiki World Cup, as well as running my own user page designs centre. Looking foward to working and cooperating with anyone that would bizzarely accept my request. Thank you all and Merry Christmas F9T 20:50, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

  13. Tanthalas39 (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I have been working hard to qualify for admin nomination and acceptance. Please see my contributions - yes, there have been a lot lately, but I go back over a year, and I think almost every single edit is up to administrator standards. I have been very active lately in order to reach the 1000K "base" - the number at which I won't be denied simply by a lack of edit count. The ones that aren't up to standard, I admit as such and tried to fix appropriately. Also, please see my user page, which has my clear-cut goals that I am currently trying to accomplish in order to qualify for a Wiki administrator position. Tanthalas39 (talk) 07:29, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
  14. Nousernamesleft (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I'm actually not extremely interested in becoming an administrator, but I would like to know how the sysop tools work, and training would help. Update as of 19:12, 26 January 2008 (UTC): I'm still interested, and have changed my mind on the importance of the issue. I think that as an administrator, I could help with many of the backlogs (such as CAT:SPEEDY) and aid Misplaced Pages in a more efficient way than at the present. Nousernamesleft 19:12, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
  15. Pb30 (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) Interested in becoming admin. Have done RC/new page patrol and would like to expand in related areas. -- pb30<talk> 22:09, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
  16. Maser Fletcher (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I would love to be an administrator someday, because I enjoy doing administrative things. At the time, I do not have the experience yet. I would like to be coached so that I could learn how to deal with disputes, have a more thorough understanding of policy, and have gained experience so that I could be a better asset to Misplaced Pages. Maser 06:45, 3 January 2008 (UTC)
  17. StephenBuxton (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I would like to become an administrator one day. I am already committed to reverting and reporting vandals, and would like to learn more about other areas of Misplaced Pages so that I may be a useful administrator, or failing that, a good Wikipedian. StephenBuxton (talk) 14:28, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  18. Robwingfield (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I've been editing WP for three years now. As well as creating and editing articles, I've been taking an increasing interest in the community aspect, such as patrolling RC, getting involved in AfD, and involvement in WikiProjects. I'd like some coaching to broaden my knowledge of the different areas of WP so that I can be more effective as a user, and potentially progress onto adminship if suitable. robwingfield  16:05, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
  19. Rkmlai (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I am very interested in becoming an admin.

  22. Urban Rose (talk · contribs) I've been an active vandal fighter for about two months now and am interested in becoming an administrator, but I know that I need a wider range of contribs than just vandal fighting before I'll be ready. Therefore, I would appreciate it if someone would invest some time in coaching me in the other areas that I should be active in if I want to seriously consider becoming an admin. Urban Rose 20:25, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
  23. Arichnad (talk · contribs) I was recently asked if I would accept an admin nomination. I declined the request (for six months) because I knew that I'd probably fail an RFA. From this experience, though, I've come to the conclusion that other people think I might make a good admin. I'm here so I can mature my editing abilities. My hopes are to become well rounded and better understand the RFA process. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 20:55, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Canyouhearmenow (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I would like to find a coach that could teach me more about wikipedia in general. I think I would be a great administrator and help this encyclopedia with my knowledge of entertainment.

I have been using both this account and User:Voxpuppet (the latter in a parallel second browser, as Firefox doesn't like Twinkle) to fight vandalism using the Recent Changes log and Twinkle with all add-ons and have been contributing slowly but surely. However, the Misplaced Pages Community is unlikely to have much faith in me, as I have in the past made myself a pain in the proverbial for some of them: I would like to put all that behind me and make myself an invaluable contributor in my own right.

  8. Danielfolsom (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) While most of this info can be found on my userpage - I'll say some here. My biggest contributions probably come in the areas of speedy deletions (I go to the category and try and clean up what I can),minor edits to articles, vandal fighting (more-so in my earlier contribs but still some now), template space,and I'll chip in on talk pages a bit also. I think my weakest areas that I'm looking to improve are AfD voting - I used to be more involved with this but I essentially moved to different tasks, I'd like to come back to it, and dispute resolution - while I can sometimes resolve a dispute by participating in it and trying to reach compromise - I am not the best at this, and sometimes I let things go to extremes. danielfolsom 03:25, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

My goal is to learn more about Misplaced Pages to improve its contents and in assisting new users.

I've been very active in patrolling new pages and users, both in the sense of reverting vandalism, requesting AIV and AIVU, and marking pages for speedy deletion, but also in welcoming new users and giving new stubs their first pushes towards articlehood. These experiences, as well as my own contributions to articles, have really helped me to understand the policies behind this place, and I make a point of reaching out to new editors whose potentially valid articles I have tagged as CSD to help them understand how to contribute in a manner more consistent with these policies. That being said, I would like to get more into the nitty-gritty, particularly policy creation/editing and conflict resolution before I consider standing for adminship. --jonny-mt(t)(c) 05:31, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

  39. Michaelbusch (talk • contribs • non-automated contribs • wikichecker • count • total • logs • page moves • block log • email) I filed an RfA last week, but various editors have expressed concerns about my understanding of the speedy deletion criteria, and deletion more generally. If I read the explanations of votes properly, half the editors who have voted approve giving me Adminship, roughly 35% would perhaps be willing to give me Adminship if I demonstrated better understanding of deletion and handling vandals, and the other 15% seem opposed to me for other reasons. Therefore, I'd appreciate it if someone would be willing to monitor my anti-vandal editing over the next few months, to judge if I should apply again. Thanks.
