This is LMBW's requests for discussion moderator page. If you wish to request discussion moderator rights, please make sure you fulfill the requirements listed here. Discussion moderators have the ability to remove and restore threads and replies from any user, close and reopen threads, manage forum boards, move threads, highlight and un-highlight threads, moderate chat (CM rights are built in), delete blog comments, and edit and delete article comments.
To file a request, press the button below and fill out the requested field(s).
Requests made on this page are a vote, meaning that if they achieve at least 20 supporting votes and 75% support out of the total supports and opposes, then their request will be closed as successful. Users voting on a request must give a valid reason for their support or oppose. Most requests last for around a week, unless there is clear consensus either way after a short period of time.
If a user has run for discussion moderator before, add (2) to the end of the topic header. If a request for discussion moderator fails, the user who requested the rights must wait 4 weeks before requesting them again. For users with multiple requests, add the respective number of the request. It is also considered good practice to link to previous requests for rights when nominating a user.
Archived requests can be found here.
