I would like to be a sysop here; I have enough time and edits, am very familiar with writing simple and most of the necessary articles here, and understand that sysops have no 'special authority', but are allowed to protect vandalised pages and block vandals when necessary. I would only use these powers to combat blatant vandalism. Blockinblox 13:42, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- You've been here for quite a while, and you do help with a couple great tasks, like updating the Wikipedia:Recentchanges notice. The main problem I have is that I don't know anything about you. You've never voted on WP:RFD, nor voted here on other candidates. You also only rarely edit summaries for your article edits. This especially make it difficult for other editors to see what changes you've made. It's a subtle thing, but I think that communication is important for an admin. -- Netoholic @ 07:03, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, those specific things seem pretty easy to change, and I'm now trying to show that I can do a better job of communicating, on edit summaries and WP:RFD. What else did you want to know about me? -- Blockinblox 16:43, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Also, I didn't vote here before, because I didn't realize non-admins were allowed to vote on this page; but I promise to do better at communicating in the future, especially if my role changes to admin/sysop. --Blockinblox 18:59, 15 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. I had similar concerns as Neto, but they have been addressed to my satisfaction. And the regular updating of Recent Changes seems to indicate the sort of temperament that would be well-suited to having the keys to the janitor's closet. 24.18.215.132 20:21, 2 March 2006 (UTC) (Um, I guess I forgot to sign in.

- Support. I agreed with Freshstart about Neto's concerns, but he has over a thousand edits in the mainspace along with edits across other spaces. Plus, he's been good in helping with vandalism. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:42, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
