RfP scheduled to end after 28 July 2019 14:46 (UTC)

Hello everyone, I am 1997kB. I am a native Hindi and advanced English speaker.

On other projects, I am a global renamer, rollbacker, and SPI clerk on English Wikipedia. On Wikidata I edits items related to India or Hindi/English Wikipedia, apart from that I also watch over recent changes and deletion discussions.

Having this bit will increase my ability to remove/stop vandalism which I found during patrolling as well as over deletion page. Also I would like to mention that I have no sysop experience over any projects, but I think I am always careful with new buttons and assure that if elected, will not misuse the tools.

I have carefully read the Wikidata Administrators policy. Thank you for your consideration. Regards, ‐‐1997kB (talk) 14:46, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  4.  Weak support -- CptViraj (📧) 10:56, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  5.  Support. 1997kB has been active on every role he has taken so far and is one of the most competent users I have seen. Many times Wikidata has been criticised for the vandalism that somehow gets through and I am sure his activity will be helpful in preventing those leaks.--BRP ever 12:55, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  6.  Support I've worked with this user in a number of other places and am always very happy with the way the user handles everything. StevenJ81 (talk) 13:34, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  8.  Support --Epìdosis 21:40, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  9.  Support. Not hugely concerned about lack of sysop experience considering their generally good track record elsewhere. Will be a net positive. Hiàn (talk) 00:58, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  10.  Support Potential candidate to be a good sysop. Experienced in another projects and trusted. Tools will be helpful. Rafael (stanglavine) msg 11:12, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  11.  Support--NewDataB (talk) 15:18, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  12.  Support Why not? --Cuatro Remos (talk) 18:37, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  13.  Weak support The thought behind my vote: 1997kB should welcome new users on their user talk page who haven’t done any vandalism or test edits, there is barely any edits on properties or lexeme. Not active in the Project chat. It’s important for a sysop to gain trust. That have 1997kB done by being super helpful at “Requests for deletions” and merging pages. 1997kB have also helped out a lot by fighting vandalism with rollback and placing “Uw-vandalism” on user talk pages. 1997kB do unfortunately only have (per June 23, 2019) 336 patrols. So, I would say that 1997kB have some to work on. Summary: Trustworthy user. - Premeditated (talk) 20:54, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  15.  Support--DiMon2711 09:28, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  16.  Weak oppose didn't strike me as particularly active on Wikidata. Not sure if or how this is linked to the recent drama brought to us from SWMT. --- Jura 21:15, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  17.  Weak support Usually I'd prefer admin candidates be a bit more familiar with property creation but it's not enough to block me from supporting.--Jasper Deng (talk) 19:30, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  18.  Support good track record, can be trusted --DannyS712 (talk) 21:51, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Known for incredible stats on SWMT, but rather invisible here ?! I was interested in this user's Wikiscan and that's what I understood: It's like a new user. At the end of May 2019, he counted 2619 editions in almost 2 years. He touched 4 Properties and 1 Lexeme, but only during patrol. In short, 95% of the editions are modifications of Items (including 26 creations), the rest is roughly shared between RfD, AN and User Talk. Properties and Lexemes and everything attached to it has not been addressed. This is what differentiates WP from WD: the properties are in all Items. This is the same application as Dimon2711. With this sudden interest, should we fear to see you leave after getting the flag? Would you approach the property proposals? —Eihel (talk) 17:40, 21 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Eihel:, Thanks for the comment. As you can see I have started editing Wikidata in 2018, (before that are just page moves happened automatically). So from then to till this day I have been always interested in anti-vandalism and spam on Hindi related topics (in starting) and now overall I patrol recent changes. That's the big reason I have activity only on pages such as RFDs and AN. Now comming to answers of your questions — Will I leave after getting the flag? Well I don't think that's an appropriate questions as it feels that we are here for our personal benefit. I am a volunteer as you and as others and in my capacity until I have free time, I'll be dedicated to Wikimedia movement. Will I approach property proposal? Well you might be disappointed by my answer, but I think there are many other people doing better than me, so at this time.. No, also as I have already clarified my area of interest, I'll not head to something that I'm not interested. I hope this answers all your questions and once again thanks.

  • As I learned in the last RfA I participated in, I'm not yet eligible to vote (almost!), but I'd like to voice my support for this candidate. They're extremely responsible and trustworthy and I believe they'd serve Wikidata well in an administrator capacity. Thank you, Vermont (talk) 13:19, 22 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
