This is the page where '''requests for special positions''' are filed and heard. See [[The Sims Wiki:Special positions|this page]] for a list of special positions and their requirements. Receiving a special position does not automatically provide [[The Sims Wiki:rollback|rollback]] or [[The Sims Wiki:Administrators|administrator]] privileges - these must be requested separately.
Line 67:
::'''Withdrawing''' - On second thought, I think this position would be better suited for a non-administrator, so I am going to withdraw my name and application. I encourage any other active community members to come forward and apply. - '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 02:29, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

Position: '''OmbudsmanIRC Contact'''
 
I would like to self-nominate myself to be the new IRC contact to replace [[User:Duskey|Duskey]]. I had previously considered [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]] for the job but per [[User talk:GEORGIEGIBBONS#IRC Contact]], I have decided to nominate myself as I do have quite a bit of knowledge with IRC and I am capable with a lot of things that are related to IRC, such as granting user flags (such as op) and maintanance of a channel. {{GGsig}} 18:15, March 12, 2011 (UTC)
{{Userlinks|GEORGIEGIBBONS}} is an active participant on the wiki and has [[The_Sims_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal#Ombudsman|community support]] for the position of Ombudsman. I am confident that if given the position, he will remain neutral and do the job well. Therefore, I am nominating GEORGIEGIBBONS for the position of Ombudsman. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 19:18, December 19, 2010 (UTC)
