Mentioned in SAL (#wikimedia-operations) [2017-03-17T23:30:59Z] <mutante> lists: making Steinsplitter and Zhuyifei1999 list admins of commons-poty (T160672)

I logged in on the list admin page using the master password and added @Steinsplitter and @zhuyifei1999 in the list admin field.

Then i connected to the list server with ssh and ran [fermium:/var/lib/mailman/bin] $ sudo ./change_pw -l commons-poty -p $(pwgen -c1 -s 12) which sets a new random password and will trigger an automatic email to the people listed in the admin field above.

@Steinsplitter, @zhuyifei1999 you should have received that automatic mail now and you can use that random password to login. You can add the other members you have listed on https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Picture_of_the_Year/2016/Committee#Members if you like and you can also reset the password again yourself. Just keep in mind please that there is only a single admin password that you all have to share. So if one of you changes it , they need to share it with all other admins.
