areas that need administrative privileges to help

Regarding this comment: I'm not sure I understand. There are of course plenty of areas requiring administrative privileges that can use more admins, some of them listed in the main section of the discussion. Did you mean areas that you were interested in? isaacl (talk) 23:50, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

@Isaacl: yes, precisely. (I also didn't read the entire discussion - the watchlist header looked interesting to me.) SportingFlyer T·C 00:20, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Your comment just sounds a bit odd, since even the subsection discusses admin backlogs (and if you're interested in finding admin backlogs, they aren't that hard to locate). Thanks for the clarification. isaacl (talk) 00:25, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

@Isaacl: No worries. Admin backlogs are not something I engage with on a normal basis, which is why I'm in favour of some sort of recruitment campaign. SportingFlyer T·C 00:35, 6 December 2024 (UTC)

Tarnobrzeg Municipal Stadium

Just wanted to say thanks for backing the Tarnobrzeg Municipal Stadium article during the discussion. Even though it ended up being deleted (which I still think was unfair—felt more like a snowball effect than actual consensus), I really appreciate that your input helped keep the debate going for another week. It’s a good reminder that you don’t always win, even when you’ve got solid arguments on your side. Still, I’m glad we had the chance to make the case, and your fairness in the discussion didn’t go unnoticed. ;) Paradygmaty (talk) 16:57, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

@Paradygmaty: I think it's a bad decision, best we can do is add information about it onto the Siarka Tarnobrzeg page. If you have access to older sources we might be able to make a case for reinstatement! SportingFlyer T·C 19:18, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
