Phaedriel

Ended on September 9, 2007. 94% support.

It is hard to look for more in an admin that what is found in Phaedriel. With prior experience in the position, an amazing talent for dealing patiently and politely with users, and a good understanding of policy and guidelings while at the same time an openness to learn in areas she is lacking (what admin knows everything?), I can not help but feel she would make a wonderful admin who would use the extra tools for the better of the wiki. With close to 2300 edits (1700 mainspace) her willingness to contribute shows easily. -- Creol(talk) 09:23, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Candidate's acceptance: I'm truly moved by Creol's most kind words, and by the support of our fellow editors below, even before I became aware of this. I'm honored and happy to accept, hoping that this may help me serve our community in the best way I possibly can. Phaedriel - 14:59, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support

Support - Nice, friendly and easy to work with. Her contribs are always good ones and she already has two (soon three) VG articles in less than a month. Gwib^-(talk)- 09:43, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support but with the understanding that my "vote" may not be valid. I am ElinorD at English Wikipedia, and have administrator rights there. It is from there that I know Phaedriel, who is also an administrator there. She is very kind and very trustworthy, and has done excellent work as an administrator, upholding policies such as the one on image copyright, but in the gentlest way. The reason my vote may not count (and I fully accept that) is that I am not very active here. I am just commenting as a respected user from another project, who has experience of Phaedriel. My contributions here will at least show that I didn't register this account for the purpose of supporting her! ElinorD 10:22, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I have a brief experience here and 3 years on en:wiki and de:wiki. I have found Phaedriel very friendly and helpful. ---barliner--talk--contribs- 10:33, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - I believe she will become a very helpful admin. - Huji ^reply 12:39, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support Good grief, I was thinking about nominating last night! Anyway, Phaedriel is an extremely hardworking editor here, with a great mix of article work and janitor chores. She is also one of the kindest, friendly users - no, people - that I've ever had the luck to meet. She'd make a brilliant admin. I just hope she accepts! :) Majorly (talk) 13:20, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - she'll be a great admin! FrancoGG ^{( talk )} 15:20, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - the sheer number of new articles she has contributed to the growth of this project alone, makes her hard to turn down! Blockinblox - talk 15:24, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support - As nominator. -- Creol(talk) 15:36, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Absolutely. Of course. 100%. Duh! --Isis §^(talk) 22:35, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Strong support. Phaedriel is already very familiar with Wikimedia policies due to her experience at English Wikipedia. She unfailingly treats others with kindness and civility. Looking through her contributions, she participates in both writing/editing and maintenance. She is a very prolific contributor here, putting my own meager contributions to shame. I believe that she will be an excellent admin here! --Kyoko 15:22, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support. --§ Snake311 _{(T + C)} 23:31, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Support Yes. She's fabulous on enwp, and a quick review indicates she's just as great on Simple.--Chaser 04:27, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

Neutral While Phaedriel is a great sysop, she may not be able to deal with being a sysop on both wikis. It is a lot of hard work, since this community is expanding, and en has (now) over 2 million articles, so you may be quite busy. Maybe she will have to give up the Sysop Mop on en. →Ionas Rand 06:31, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We don't have neutral votes anymore Ionas. Check here for reference. Gwib^-(talk)- 07:56, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What does my vote count as? →Ionas Rand 09:37, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It counts as an oppose since you put it under the "Oppose" section, unless you'd like to move it to the "Support" section or just simply voice your opinion in the "Comments" section without making a definite vote.
