In addition to this, I would also like to nominate User: Naveenpf and either User :Atudu or User :Manavpreet Kaur. A suggestion is to have a female admin.

Nice initiative Subha, For the other suggestions that are floating in, I would recommend not to suggest/nominate third parties. Let individuals nominate themselves for it to be more productive adminship. A need of gender balance could be there but list adminship simply doesn't require it, so instead of forcibly implimenting it for the sake of political correctness, let us invite all genders, male/female/third gender/gender neutral, all.

I don't see any mails from you in my inbox. There was just a single email held on the Delhi list. From Abhinav. I explained to Yohann and Subha more than a few times. The mails keep getting held up because the senders aren't member of the list. Please join the list first. T On Mon, Jul 30, 2018 at 7:21 PM Abhinav srivastava &lt;abhinav619(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote:

I agree with Yohann and Dhaval's suggestion, and also the nominations. Yes, as Abhinav mentioned, this problem of inactive list admins/moderators exists on many of Indian regional mailing lists as well. I've faced issues in the past while posting to some Indic-language mailing lists. So we can actually start a common conversation (may be on Meta-Wiki), listing all the Indic-communities' mailing lists along with the admins/moderators (active/inactive). Following that interested (& active) users can volunteer themselves to be admins.

(If there's any list the community would like to revive or add moderators to, but encounters lost passwords or unresponsive admins, please document that on Meta as well and draw my attention to it, after reaching some agreement. I can ask WMF Operations team members to regain control of the list and add the moderators.) A. On Tue, Jul 31, 2018 at 11:19 PM Sudhanwa Jogalekar &lt;sudhanwa.com(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote:
