Account creator

Hello. I am co-hosting a WIkipedia edit-a-thon at the University of Waterloo on December 7 from 12:00 - 2:30. I would like to request account Creator status for this time only so that I can encourage new editors to Wikipedia to create an account and participate. Our meetup is here: Wikipedia:Meetup/Kitchener-Waterloo/16_Days_UW. I hope this is enough information but if not, feel free to send me any questions or anything else you may need.

Could someone associated with the edit-a-thon verify your role there? Is there a particular reason you're requesting this user right instead of an established editor associated with the edit-a-thon, such as Dnllnd? ~ Rob13Talk 10:32, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, BU Rob13. Thanks for following up so quickly. S42brown and I are hosting the edit-a-thon together and I am happy to take on the user right as the more experienced user. Apologies for the confusion - this is our first time moving through this process. Thanks for your patience! --Dnllnd (talk) 19:18, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I have a lot of articles on my watchlist, I think this would be a good tool and connected account creator Fly Up (Talk) contribs) 09:20, 4 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
