Questions for the candidate

[edit]

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. You may wish to answer the following optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
A: Well I have noticed that many protected pages tend to become outdated due to lack of attention by admins. I am on this site everyday and am a perfectionist so I can make sure that all pages (See Kurt Angle talk page) are kept current with admin priveleges. As a admin I hope to stop vadalism from occuring and help to make wikipedia a good source of accurate information.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: I made alot of edits to the WWE roster page mostly updating releases and removing vandalism, my main thing on wikipedia is vandalism cause with a editable encyclopedia you run into people who just like to cause problems.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: I have never had a editing issue with anyone in the past but if I had I would talk it over with them way of their talk page or e-mail if available.

Support

Oppose

  1. You don't have the kind of experience necessary to demonstrate that you'll be competent with the tools. For example, you say you want to do page unprotection and counter-vandalism. Fair enough, but I don't see any indication of experience in these areas, such as making unprotection requests at WP:RFPP, reverting vandalism, or requesting blocks of vandals at WP:AIV. I'm not saying you'd make a bad admin, but there's nothing here for me to judge whether you'd make a good one.--Chaser - T 19:43, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Oppose hardly here to be any point in him being an admin. As well as being inexperienced, edit summaries like this aren't good. Majorly (talk) 20:03, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Oppose Your edit count is too low, around 360. Most people have more than 1000+ before becoming a admin. Your answer to Q1 shows me very little knowledge of what an admin does. Sorry. Politics rule 20:09, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Oppose and Please Withdraw per WP:SNOW. 1) this is not vandalism - please review WP:BITE. Your length of time here is great but to demonstrate a need for admin tools really does require greater than under 400 edits. Please feel free to contact me if I can help in any way. Best regards.

  5. Oppose, and suggest withdrawal, per the comments above. Please participate in admin-realted areas and get more edits before trying again. --Boricuaeddie 20:17, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  6. Strong oppose - due to blatant canvassing[1], as well as a lack of experience. I know you mean well and are a dedicated editor but you need a lot more experience before applying for adminship. Recommend you withdraw at this time - Alison ☺ 20:37, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  7. Strong oppose per above. -Lemonflash(do something) 21:28, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  8. Strong oppose and Withdraw - Please, you do not seem to be civil, and your actions at WWE Raw suggests me that you should cool down and get experienced with the policies. Also, as Alison mentioned earlier, canvassing (or campaigning) is not tolerated here. You also only have a little more than 300 edits. No one in 2006 with edit counts below 1000 passed a Rfa. Try again in a few more months analyzing the comments above. --Hirohisat Talk 21:33, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
