Nomination statement (250 words max.)

Hi! I have considered applying for the checkuser tool on the English Wikipedia, as it would serve most useful. As part of my global steward work I encounter vandals, often recurrent potential socks, from across all languages and projects; this wiki, being the largest, inevitably gets the most activity. As such, I was regularly having the need to consult local checkusers, primarily to verify the presence of sleepers.

I utilize checkuser for mostly the same reason on simplewiki, although to a lesser degree (most disruption tends to aggregate here). In that position and as a steward I am already identified, and have been following the relevant (privacy) policies - therefore I feel that that won't be a problem here.

Thanks.
