Simple just needs more admins in general. Some admins are getting lazier, some are becoming more inactive due to personal reasons, and some are not active in certain areas, like QD and blocking users. I wish to help out with QDs, of which I have at least a hundred requests, along with anti-vandalism and blocking users to prevent damage to the encyclopedia, which I can see may not be done in a timely manner. I am fairly semi-active, and have just returned from a wikibreak, but I have the trust and experience, and Wikipedia:Inactive administrators should take care of my activity. I'm always trying to improve, and if the community doesn't trust me with these tools, that's fine. I will continue to be an editor, and attempt to improve the encyclopedia.

- For clarity, I have been inactive since February due to mental health issues. I like this Wikipedia, and plan to contribute to it in the future. Thanks. Justarandomamerican (t • c) 22:36, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose
[change source]- Oppose - WP:NOTNOW. Only about 250 edits in last week after 7 months away. Need more consistent experience to adequately judge. CountryANDWestern (talk) 21:42, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Quite frankly, I feel like this is an oppose vote that should be expanded on further rather than linking me to an essay meant for complete newcomers. Justarandomamerican (t • c) 22:07, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- I believe my comment adequately explains my oppose rationale. CountryANDWestern (talk) 22:16, 10 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

- Oppose per CountryANDWestern. A lot of your edits have been small amounts in sporadic periods of time, and I would feel uncomfortable endorsing an editor with as little experience as you do. If you don't like WP:NOTNOW, I can link en:Wikipedia:Not yet because that also applies. MrMeAndMrMeTalk 01:19, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- What would you suggest for a future run? Justarandomamerican (t • c) 01:37, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- oppose Dont believe you have the experience at this time. Maybe in 6 months of fully active work. You just got TAIPV so let's see how you get on with that. Good luck for the future. fr33kman 02:41, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose this came too soon. You need more experience around content with only 9 pages created and from there some tagged with few tags. A lengthy period to build community trust is also desirable. You barely have any edits in some of the areas with only 3 edits in categories. Good level of participation demonstrating understanding of simple's policy, procedures and project goal for a lengthy period for at least around a year would prompt me to support.--BRP ever 03:41, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
[change source]- Abstain A few rfps recently. I suggest waiting a bit more before requesting any more. Plutus 💬 🎃 — Fortune favors the curious 01:05, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- I would like to withdraw, as it is clear that the community isn't looking for me at this time. Thank you. Justarandomamerican (t • c) 12:35, 11 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
