Discussion

Support

Doesn't meet my minimum requirements for an admin candidate on the experience front, but hell, no one else is running anymore. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 16:20, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

1. As per nom. Malleus Fatuorum 16:23, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

   Funny. B+ jorgenev 16:29, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Oppose

1. While I agree with Wizardman, I don't think NYMETs has enough experience at this time. In particular NYMET has only made 20 talkspace edits Pi (Talk to me! ) 16:28, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

   Actually, I'm going to hold this until NYMET answers the questions Pi (Talk to me! ) 16:29, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

   Since some time has gone by and only 1 question has been answered, I'm going to reinstate my oppose Pi (Talk to me! ) 16:57, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

2. Only here for one and a half months with only 1,500 edits. Unfortunately, you're not ready at this time, as you lack the editing experience admins must have (at least six months experience and 4,000 edits). However, in six months to a year, if no problems arise and you keep up the good work you're doing right now, I'd be happy to support you. Good luck.

3. This shows a profound lack of understanding of what it means to be an admin. ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 16:44, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
4. Per misuse of rollback. Strange Passerby (talk • cont) 16:49, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
5. Oppose We do like to see more admin-hopefuls go into the reverting vandalism department. Unfortunately, he doesn't have enough experience yet in general and some of his edits can be problematic. (Including inappropriate use of rollback made today [1]) Minima© (talk) 16:52, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
6. Strong oppose. Appalling use of rollback, berating an editor for trying to help you, and you haven't even bothered to answer the questions. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:55, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
7. Oppose per WP:NOTNOW and the above comments by ErikHaugen, Strange Passerby, Minimac, and HJ Mitchell. I strongly suggest a speedy withdrawal per WP:SNOW. Richwales (talk · contribs) 17:01, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
8. (edit conflict) Oppose - Per this AIV report, which is for submitting an AFC multiple times. Reaper Eternal (talk) 17:03, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
9. After looking through some diffs, this is exactly the type of person who should not be an admin. Will need at least six months of learning. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 17:05, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
10. Oppose The user does not meet my requirements. Additionally, the user's answers to the questions are poor. MJ94 (talk) 17:11, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
