Ive been told that they are placing the same requirements on the course 
coordinator flag as they do on all others.. a certain amount of online history 
with es.wiki. I have made the arguments that you suggest Samir and 
User:Jmvkrecords has said he will discuss it with other admins 
(bibliotecarios), but he has stated that the community has the final say.

Question: why is this tool separated under the various language projects?  
First, this limits the monitoring/documenting to a single language (if students 
do projects in en.wiki and es.wiki, there needs to be two extensions) and who 
needs the tool is very different from the others. Why dont we have one course 
extension that can scrape the data from whatever project students are working 
on?

Subject: Re: [Wikimedia Education] denied access to course extension

Hi Leigh,
To help with your question may I ask you first if there is a local policy for 
the use of the education extension user rights on the Spanish Wikipedia?
If there is a policy that supports the admin's reply, then unfortunately there 
will be nothing to do with that.
If the answer is no, then you can reapply on the same page or separately on 
other adimns talk pages relying on many factors:
1. The ed extension user rights help only with ed program pages and don't give 
any special rights on the article name space.
2. The use of the ed extension is to help the coordinators and volunteers of 
the program even if they don't have any edits on Wikipedia.
3. On Wikipedia in other languages, admins don't, usually, apply such 
requirements on ed user rights. (Please note that the policies of each wiki 
community may vary from another and they are the only  authority on their 
policies and its application)
I hope this helps with your issue.
Cheers,

Samir Elsharbaty

Basically the answer is no. They have to have editing experience and

show that they at least have the ability to speak Spanish and show they

can be good course coordinators.






Did you try asking some more admins (on their talk page) to chime in? Often 
such request pages are only watched by a small "specialised" group.
