User:Ebe123/Test-Adminship

Test-adminship (or Test-sysop) is a proposed supplement to the current Requests for adminship (RfA). The test-administrator is inspired by test-administrators at the, where the tool is given by request for a test-wiki.

In test-adminship, a user who has a need for a particular administrator tool or tools, such as deletion or protection, makes a request to receive that tool. The user is judged according the the following criteria: Satisfying these and after a discussion, the user will receive the tool on a trial basis for a limited period (one week for the trial). When this period expires, the tool is revoked. The trial period is subject to revocation if abused.
 * The user must be in good standing;
 * The user must have an ongoing need for the tool and be able to begin using it right away;
 * The user should be active and have sufficient experience in the area in which they plan to use the tool;
 * The area of use must have some active users, and big enough.

After the end of their trial, the user can file a request for a new trial (also of 5 days), based on their performance during the trial period, which will be granted if the user substantially used the tool and exercised good judgement. If the request is denied, the user will be given extensive feedback on their usage and will have to demonstrate through their actions a clear understanding of that feedback before requesting a new trial.

Request for trials would be subject to a 5-day discussion at Requests for test-adminship. Requests will be closed by This discussion would be short and straightforward in most cases (where users do not have to support, only to pose questions and oppose) because less scrutiny is needed than for a full RfA: it's only granting a subset of tools for a limited period subject to probation.
