Update

Are Patrollers even a thing anymore? I can't help but notice there are only 4, two of whom have not edited in well over a year. The page states they are selected on an "as-need" basis. I put forth that they are no longer needed. We already have administrators and rollbackers who fill this role. --  Rusty - 112 00:49, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

Not sure if it is a "thing", but I see this usergroup as a necessary addition to the wiki's environment; they would take certain duties (i.e. deletion, removal, rename) of administrators whenever the administrators are not around.— subtank 01:23, 11 September 2012 (EDT)
I agree with Subtank. However, we should probably demote the inactive Patrollers and add some new, responsible users to the group.--Spartacus, Halopedia Administrator Talk 13:54, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

Request: Xamikaze330 (Passed)

Date: 06/29/14

Reason for request: Hey people, I'm a regular (daily) user here on Halopedia since March 20, 2011, with an edit count of 22,047. I'm a rollbacker here, and would like to request to become a Patroller here to help step in and assist with maintaining the wiki, and taking care of some of the workload when other admins/patrollers are occupied and unable to do so, like deleting images and image revisions, and having additional tools to assist in fighting vandalism. If there is a need for another Patroller, then may I humbly submit my candidacy. --Xamikaze330 [Transmission|Commencing] 14:32, 29 June 2014 (EDT)Xamikaze330


Request is granted.--Spartacus TalkContribs 11:42, 2 July 2014 (EDT)

Request: Arcmind

Date: 03/1/17

Reason for request: Hello fellow Spartans, I am Arcmind, an admin over on Destinypedia where I help run, maintain and improve the wiki. Since things there have more or less begun to take shape, I'll have more time on my hands to help out here. I am on the wiki daily - though I tend to lurk around - and would be able to help with Vandalism and any other maintenance tasks that might require an extra set of hands. I am always willing to help out however I can, and can perform whatever tedious or otherwise difficult jobs normal editors might not have the tools or the time to do including images and templates. So if you guys could use an errand guy, perhaps you might consider myself as a candidate for the program.  Arcmind Execute long hold for reactivation.   AI-COM/ACMD SIGNOFF 16:43, 1 March 2017 (EST)

  •   Support - Arcmind satisfies all the requirements. As a sysop on Destinypedia, he has experience using extra tools in a responsible manner, something I have witnessed firsthand.--Spartacus TalkContribs 10:55, 2 March 2017 (EST)
  •   Support - Per above. --Jugus (talk) 13:45, 2 March 2017 (EST)
