Trainee/clerking interest and discussion[edit]
Active 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)
Archive filter[edit]
I trust that whoever maintains Special:AbuseFilter/1170 (archive actions by non-CU/non-clerk editors) watches this page. Could you please add my mobile alt, User:Sir Sputnik (mobile), to the ignore list for that filter? Thanks. Sir Sputnik (talk) 22:44, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Sir Sputnik and Sir Sputnik (mobile): done. -- zzuuzz (talk) 22:49, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
Case merging request[edit]
Greetings everybody, I come here from recommendation of Spicy, as he told me this is the right place to request the complex case merging that is required [1]. The story goes like this: back in december I opened a SPI [2] that became fairly extense and on it I found out direct evidence (mostly usernames and editing behavior) that two sockpuppeters: Ghumen[3] and HipHopVisionary[4] are actually the same person (the bulk of the evidence can be found on this diff [5]), as can be seen by reading the complete case this is a very persistent and nocive vandal, with VPN usage being 100% confirmed[6][7], for which I think to merge both cases is necessary as it would make future SPI's on this editor smoothier and faster for checkusers/administrators, who tend to be very bussy and have no time to look carefully each implicated account.

Case merging request[edit]
Please merge WP:Sockpuppet investigations/Honey Honey Bee Honey into WP:Sockpuppet investigations/BMX On WheeIs, as a user on there confirmed the accounts to be BMX. --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 15:57, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
- Please tag the BMX SPI as crosswiki as well. --Leonidlednev (T, C, L) 16:17, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
