I feel I have done an amazing job here on SWP. It is a 360° turn around from who I was. I understand the rules and some I am still learning. I focus a lot on vandalism and technical fixes and once in a while I’ll expand an article. More importantly I help the new comers understand what they can and can’t do, point them in the right direction and assist them if I can. I feel I would be a great addition to our already amazing sysops team!
I am withdrawing this RFA at this time. Thanks PotsdamLamb (talk) 15:21, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[change source]Oppose
[change source]- Right off the bat, I have to oppose. This user doesn't understand some of our procedures, as evidenced by 1) inappropriate/premature reports at WP:VIP and 2) the way this RfA was incorrectly created. The user has also apparently never created any articles here, which I think is important to help understand how this wiki works. I think it's quite a bit too early for this user to get the mop. --Auntof6 (talk) 10:33, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose This user does not at all understand how this wiki works and frequently has to have their edits fixed. From my view they are a very long way off from being an admin. -Djsasso (talk) 12:26, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Ironically to the point that this request is completely broken and I am going to have to fix it now. -Djsasso (talk) 12:29, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Although PotsdamLamb has now withdrawn, can you show some of their edits that have to be fixed? I can't recall any of PotsdamLamb's contributions that have had to be fixed, obviously excluding this rfa. --Ferien (talk) 16:31, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comments
[change source]@Auntof6: - Can you give me examples of the VIPs you are referring to please? This RfA was created via mobile and it didn’t populate the fields. That is why I redid it. I have expanded some articles and fixed quite a few as I’d rather fix the technical, spelling, and grammar on articles. I am looking at the cleanup categories. We have a lot of people that come over and create articles. I admitted I don’t know all of the rules as some I don’t have experience in but I have a good grasp of them and if I don’t I ask questions before I do anything.
