Btw, the en:Wikipedia:Administrators page absolutely
do not indicate this mailing list as being the right
place to ask for sysop rights. It mentions it *only*
for developper status.
The page recommand to ask sysop status on the
en.mailing list. Then I guess someone agrees for the
new sysop, then by some magic, the user is named
sysop.
Clearly, international wikipedias cannot follow that
pattern. No international user will come either to the
english list, nor to the tech list for sysophood, but
likely to the specific language list, or the admin
page, or pump. Hence, the procedure given for
english-speaking people cannot be identically followed
on international wikipedia. It requires one more step,
as not only other users have to agree, but someone has
to ask and check until it is done.
