Hello, I'm DerHexer! You might conclude from this text that I'm not a native English speaker. I started editing the German Wikipedia in September 2005, and became a sysop there in October 2006. Two months earlier, I had joined this project, and I became a sysop here in July 2007. Five months later I was elected as a steward. Being a steward, I had to deal with some oversight requests on different wikis—whether declining the request or carrying it out, so that I think that I'm a bit experienced with the role. But normally I fight vandalism, block open proxies and delete nonsense on many projects. That's why I made about 170,000 edits and 300,000 log actions (75,000 resp. 140,000 here on en:wp).

But in my opinion stats are not so important; an oversighter should be available via mail(ing list), IRC and preferably OTRS, and though my studies prevent me from editing here as I did some months ago, I'm daily available via these three communication systems for some hours. I would help out as much as I can if I were elected, but it's at least an honour for me to be on this list with all these excellent candidates. Whomever you consider to be the best choice, I'll thank you for your participation in this election. Kind regards, —DerHexer (Talk) 22:53, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
