Request for Training

Hi,

I recently joined Wikipedia, and would like to learn how to effectively deal with vandalism. When I checked today, none of the trainers had any open slots. If any trainer not listed there is accepting students, or if any of those trainers have a future opening, I hope to be considered.

Thanks, -DannyS712 (talk) 11:03, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

Question about KoalaLou9 as a trainer

@Girth Summit, Cassiopeia, and Puddleglum2.0: I saw that KoalaLou9 added themself as a trainer for CVUA. The reason why I'm bringing this up is because I'm concerned that they don't have the experience necessary to become one. Looking at their contributions, I see no counter-vandalism work. What are your thoughts? Interstellarity (talk) 20:29, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Interstellarity, I've gone ahead and WP:BOLDly removed them. It looks like Girth has tried to reach out, so I'm happy to restore depending on how that turns out, but I don't think we should potentially turn away newer editors by having inexperienced trainers. All the best, -- puddleglum^2.0 00:28, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

@Puddleglum2.0: I trust your judgement. Please do what you think is best. Interstellarity (talk) 00:45, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, of course I'm still open to whatever Girth and Cassopiea think, but I think what I've done is at least reasonable. Cheers, -- puddleglum^2.0 00:49, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Interstellarity, Thank you for informing, I think Summit is looking into this. Stay safe. Cassiopeia^(talk) 08:00, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
