<!-- confirmation of Cocopuff2018 as Steward == | |||
Ever since Cocopuff founded SkyWiki, he has been active in reverting vandalism and helping users with their wikis. However, he is also quite the controversial figure in the wiki world - from allegations of vandalizing his own wikis for years to leaking user data, he's been at the forefront of a lot of drama. Eventually, this ended up culminating in Cocopuff formally resigning as Steward in favor of being a Global Administrator, only to declare that he would not resign a mere hour later; thus, I'm making this RfP to let the community decide if Cocopuff should continue in any community role (he is still Global Administrator at the time this RfP was made).

#<p>So, I'll start by saying that Cocopuff requested via Discord that I vote in this request (though he did <strong>not</strong> request that I vote in a particular manner). My understanding of the accusations is not firsthand, and if I am being frank they do not come from people whose credibility I can readily evaluate or with whom I have prior experience.</p><p>I am of two minds. The first is that Skywiki is Cocopuff's invention, and I don't think it has grown to the Wikipedia tipping point where [[w:Jimmy Wales|the (co-)creator]] is no longer the owner of the project. That woudld suggest supporting Coco's request.</p><p>On the other hand, I am not in love with the statement. "I will improve" is a lot more convincing when the person is specific about what went wrong... And the diva quit followed by turning around and revoking your resignation is less than impressive, and goes completely unaddressed in the statement.</p><p>So my heart says support. My head says oppose. I land in '''neutral'''.</p>If this passes, my advice to Cocopuff is to be careful and remember that [[w:Wikipedia:You are not irreplaceable|you are not irreplaceable]]. None of us are. Be kind, be honest, be open, and don't bite off more than you can chew. And my advice to the community: If you don't like how Skywiki is being run, talk to Coco or whoever is in charge. Explain – politely! – your concerns. And if all else fails, you don't have to contribute to Skywiki. You are all volunteers, and you can help improve other wikis.
