I've updated it, thanks. No need to bother with the format, It's very easy for me to add new ones. All I need is the username. I can find the rest

You can add crwth, Alex_Sr, bitmover,  pugman, tk808, vlad230, and PHI1618 merit source application as well.

I know, I know I have no doubt about that.
It's just me being petulant (someone else would say anal) on the details.

ROFL...

Thanks, those were quite old and were not bumped lately, and the status was unknowed. But anyway I added them to the list.

Thanks guys for helping.

Quickseller and tk808 are already merit sources: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4523027.0

OK, taking them out of the list

I believe Kalemder from the Turkish section also submitted a merit source application (he listed many valuable messages from the local boards

which later led to a source application after suggestions by the community)...

I think the list is for Merit source applications that have not yet been approved by Theymos (open applications). AFAIK, @Coolcryptovator is now a merit source.
I stand to be corrected thou

[The Sceptical Chymist]

AFAIK, @Coolcryptovator is now a merit source.

I think you're correct.

Theymos really should make a decision on these guys who applied to be merit sources--I know at least one member, Jet Cash, expressed much frustration at being a merit source and seemed to be losing enthusiasm for the position.  He may have changed his mind since, but I bet he isn't the only one.  I think the forum needs members who really want to be merit sources, because they're the ones who'll take it seriously and will probably do a good job. 

Theymos made a bunch of new merit sources last September, some of which hadn't even applied.  I don't know if they ever turned out to be good ones or not, because I don't even know who they all are.  I was one of them, and I'm glad he made me a merit source but I think it would be a good idea to tap at least some of those who applied in 2019.  There aren't many, and more circulating sMerits might ease the difficulty of ranking up a little bit.

OP, thanks for listing them.  I had been wondering how many applications there were that hadn't been decided on.

According to the link given by suchmoon, he is already a MS> https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5183702.0

Are you talking about this post : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5183702.msg52424104#msg52424104
I wend trough it but I didn't find really an application or request to theymos, althow it can be used as one for sure.

[cabalism13]

...

Suggestions:
1.Sort by date of applications
2.Collection of 10 Posts if achieved or not. (Ex. Hhampuz haven't started a single thing on his own application until now, so 10 posts has not been filled yet)

Its also necessary IMO. That's all.
🤔🤨 I thought Hhampuz, pugman and bitmover was already a Source?...

exactly that's the one, I think @Kalemder eventually turned it into an official application, if not on that particular thread, then elsewhere, and he addressed his post to theymos,

let's see if he (Kalemder) comes to confirm it here...

[Kalemder]

Thanks @Vispilio and @iasenko.
Yes this is my Merit source application:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5183702.0

[Hhampuz]

You can remove me from the list, I don't want to be a merit source any longer and as such I did not proceed with my application thread (will archive it now, thanks).

[bitmover]

Thanks iasenko.
This thread is better than a bump.
I hope theymos will review pending applications and give at least a small amount of smerit to those who will do a good job

What’s pretty amazing is that nearly all applicants have a Local Board backbone, besides being well known on the main English boards. It’s good to have candidates that would perform on multiple boards, whilst looking over Local Boards in the event.

[tranthidung]

@iasenko made a creative and helpful thread for all merit source applicants. The thread is nearly same as list of ban appeal (months ago) created by Alex_Sr ([BAN APPEAL]UPDATE: Total table + Ban status (Need feedback from Global mods)). They both help admins, and moderators have one place to pay attention on.

Nevertheless, there is at least one adverse effect from it, and somehow goes beyond core vision of theymos when he launched the merit system.

I will not be posting a definitive list of merit sources (so that people don't bug them too much), though you'll soon figure out who they are if you pay attention.

There is another thread has nearly same purpose but it focuses on merit sources, not applied merit sources (from @Coin_1, as I remembered).

Basically, despite the fact that such threads go beyond theymos' core vision but they do not negatively affect the forum, and as I saw merit sources or merit source applicants nowadays do no longer care too much about their privacy or secret to be sources.

Anyway, @iasenko did not make anything wrong and I believe most of the thread's viewers do not. Moreover, good merit sources will do reject any sort of merit-begging efforts that chase or attack them when merit beggars know they are already merit sources.

I can't believe that some application for merit source are from last year!
After my own application for merit source I had to wait 3-4 months and I was thinking it's to long but some people waiting almost 2 years!
I can't understand why.
Any way, good luck to everybody!
I think that specially local sections needs more merit source since some users write only in their own languages and deserve equal chance to receive merit for god quality posts.
