Pokémon Wiki:Requests for User Rights

This is the page where users can request various rights and vote on other users who are requesting rights. Please read the following regulations and instructions completely before voting or placing a request.

To find the history of all the users with various rights. Click here.

In the event that an user with rights is being unruly or breaking the rules, a request for their demotion may be placed below in the Requests for demotion header. The same voting rules apply for this as well. The vote totals required for their demotion remain the same as those for promotions as well.

When you add a comment or a vote, please do not use word bubbles, as the numbering will get messed up. If word bubbles are used, it will have the template coding removed to regular coding and the unsigned template will be used in place of a signature.

Ellis99 (Content Moderator)

— Ellis99 / Message Wall / Contributions
I have been a user here for nearly seven years (while not being on for two-and-a-half years) and been previously a Content Moderator. I have noticed that the bureaus and the admins haven't been on as much as they used to be as they have, as I assume, busy lives and some tasks needs completing, such as rename pages with previous ep. codes. I have a history of being blocked, but have learnt for those to become a better editor over the years. I'm actively on during the weekends and plan to be on during the weekdays too, eventually. I will consult to the admins and bureaus about any major changes I propose to improve this wiki be the best it can be and, hopefully, be as big, or even bigger than Bulbapedia.

Support

Support: You have my support. The wiki has a very less number of content moderators. 4 are inactive and one is seen rarely moderating the main wiki side. I personally wanted to ask you to ask for the content moderator rights. You were one. I don't know why there is a voting needed now. Alan Sycamore! (talk) 08:12, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

Support: You have shown new dedication for the wiki, so an improve on these rights will suit you again. Misch60 (talk) 08:33, May 30, 2020 (UTC)

Comments

Comment: As administrator, most of the time it is better to refrain from voting, and leave it up to the community to vote, as I have heard from other admins. Also, the voting is always needed for rights, that is how it has been for anyone. It is weird to ask why voting is needed. Also, not sure who more than 4 content moderators you have seen, because I see only 4 with the rights. Misch60 (talk) 08:33, May 30, 2020 (UTC)
