Trainee/clerking interest and discussion
editActive requests
edit | Interested editors Before applying, have a look at our advice for prospective clerks.
Applications are discussed by the checkuser and SPI clerk team, and new clerks are added as needed. Applications where the editor has become less active on Wikipedia may be removed by a checkuser or SPI clerk.
Applicants are encouraged to actively participate in SPI cases as this will increase their chances of being selected.
Please add your request to the bottom of this section, using the following format:
==== [[User:USERNAME|]] ====
:{{Usercheck-full|USERNAME}}
Request here. ~~~~

 | Clerks/Checkusers - This is a list of editors who would like to become trainees. Please leave endorsements/comments as appropriate, and remove each request once a consensus (either accepting or rejecting a prospective clerk) has formed.
Editors who have their application rejected should contact the removing editor for feedback before re-applying. |

I'm on vacation from tomorrow to next Tuesday and probably won't be online much but, once I'm back, I'd be very happy to lend a hand with WP:SPI. I've mentioned before that I am not, at this time, interested in becoming an admin so I asked how I could help otherwise and was advised to apply to be a trainee clerk. So here I am.

- I am back from vacation and interested in picking up this line of discussion. Simonm223 (talk) 12:31, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- I see almost no experience in SPI. You created an SPI in April 2024, and before that nothing since 2019.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:59, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
Archiving closed cases
editWhy is not clerk willing to archive closed cases (closed by myself). Is there some problems? Is there any other active clerk beside myself? Vanjagenije (talk) 17:10, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- I just assume they don't remember to do so. I am willing to close yours and did lots last night before I knew you were asking. :) Izno (talk) 19:04, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Vanjagenije Because there is a shortage of active SPI clerks at the moment. Maliner (talk) 18:35, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Two merge requests
editOne is at Wikipedia talk:Sockpuppet investigations/Archive 25#Case merge.
The other is mine to merge, background at User talk:Izno#Who's who: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Tejeindu and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Sita786. Izno (talk) 19:14, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- And also, #Case merging request looks like it never got fulfilled, and it doesn't say why. Perhaps someone can leave a comment there? Izno (talk) 19:26, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/5.178.202.10
editI've been working my way though the closed cases, trying to get ahead of the archiving backlog. Is there any value in keeping Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/5.178.202.10 and it's archive? I'm inclined to WP:G6 them both. RoySmith (talk) 13:34, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
- This is not the first nor will it be the last SPI dedicated to IPs. Do you have some substantial reason to G6? Izno (talk) 17:14, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
- It just didn't seem useful to me, but if you think there's value, happy to keep it. RoySmith (talk) 17:18, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
