Project:Requests for permissions/User rights/64andtim

From mediawiki.org

User: 64andtim

[edit]
Requested user-rights: Autopatrolled.

I would like to request autopatrolled rights because I am familiar with Wikimedia/MediaWiki's policies, I revert vandalism here as part of the Small Wiki Monitoring Team (using SWViewer), I am autopatrolled on metawiki, and I can be trusted not to submit inappropriate material here (whenever possible). Thanks. 64andtim (talk) 23:59, 3 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you care? It has long been my position that autopatrolled should be granted sua sponte and not due to a request by the user. * Pppery * it has begun 00:44, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
To be clear, the above is an honest question. This wiki has gotten regular requests for autopatrolled despite the patrolling system not being used regularly, and I've never see the point. Shouldn't it be the responsibility of admins who actually use the patrol function to decide who to grant autopatrolled to, not each person claiming it for themselves? * Pppery * it has begun 00:48, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So is this alright for me to withdraw this request? 64andtim (talk) 01:10, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. * Pppery * it has begun 01:12, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
My request is officially withdrawn, although I might receive it at a much later time. 64andtim (talk) 01:14, 4 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
