Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. Please answer these questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?

A:

• Deleted Unwanted Pages-To delete unwanted pages on Wikipedia because a lot of pages needed to be deleted, but they are not enough administrative Users deal with the problem and also a lot of users don't know who to turn to, if they make a misstate.
• Page protection/Anti-vandalism-I like to be also doing work with article that don't have protection over Vandalism. This is important because I know a lot of article is well written and the next time you see the article, it ruing and it don't have the protection, so I like to protect most of the article being well written.

2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?

A: My best contributions to Wikipedia are the Portal:Trinidad and Tobago because it was very work and also it did change the impact the countries don't have there own Portal. Now a lots of people edit the Portal of Trinidad and Tobago and become a higher standard, well written Portal. The Other contributions is to improve other unpopular article to a well written article like the Hillsborough, Carriacou article.

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 haven't been in any conflicts over editing in the past and also other users haven't caused you stress. If it does happen in the future, I will talk to them on their User talk and deal the problem on the spot.

Discussion

Support

1. Moral Support Your intentions are great. Please continue to edit Wikipedia and read the feedback given in the "oppose" section. You can try re-applying for RfA when you have the necessary experience. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 02:19, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Oppose

1. Weak Oppose Not convinced based on the statements I am seeing. Not a good first impression.—cyberpower (X-Mas Chat)(Contrib.) 01:20, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
2. Oppose Concerns with the Wikipedia namespace. Not convinced based on the statements. --Katarighe (Talk · Contributions · E-mail) 01:26, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
3. Oppose Copyright and other warnings on talk page are major negative factors. Giving himself a barnstar as shown at [1] is also rather questionable to me. This does not inspire confidence in his understanding of Wikipedia. I'm also rather concerned about the low number of edits to the article space (less than 30%) as well as a complete lack of any reports to RFPP and AIV- two areas where the candidate seems to want to work. I also can't see any evidence of him participating in speedy deletion, other than creating pages that were speedy deleted, and can only see him participating in a single AfD, which didn't demonstrate a lot of policy knowledge. I have to oppose based on a complete lack of any admin-area experience.--Slon02 (talk) 01:43, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
4. Unwanted pages is the way an admin should not define pages that have been nominated for deletion. Long list of copyright problems on talk page raises concerns; all admins should demonstrate a full understanding of Wikipedia's non-free content policy. HurricaneFan25 — 01:44, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
5. Oppose currently Would want to see more work on content such as creation of good articles. Needs to prove self further.--Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 01:56, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
6. Strong Oppose Edit summary usage is 12%. No experience of any kind in vandalism. Edit count is not as important as quality. Also strong oppose per all reasons above. Ramaksoud2000 (talk) 02:08, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
7. Oppose per Hurricanefan25 generally and lack of real explanation on any question. Lord Roem (talk) 02:10, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
8. Oppose Concerns with experience. -FASTILY ^(TALK) 02:11, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Neutral

1. Neutral I'm a little hesitant to submit a support vote because of all of the copyright tags and deletion templates on the user's talk page, especially this warning. -- Luke (Talk) 01:33, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
2. Neutral. The candidate has submitted a poorly-written self-nom. This, coupled with the tags and deletion templates, raise concerns. Perhaps the candidate will be better prepared for RfA in a few months. Majoreditor (talk) 01:43, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
