Questions for the candidate

[edit]

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?
A: Cleaning up vandalism, enforcing WP:CSD, and fulfilling user requests in those areas.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: My anti-vandalism work. I use Huggle, but I feel that administrator response to high-speed vandals is currently inadequate.
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: Any conflicts I have been or will be involved with I deal with through discussion. I realize I am not infallible, and I actually enjoy being introduced to another viewpoint.

  1. I'm sorry, but one day pounding WP:HUGGLE does not overcome the fact that you generally make only a very few edits each month. Bluntly I have insufficent evidence, as demonstrated through contributions, of your understanding of current policy and guidelines. Whilst adminship has no miniumum standards, and you are most certainly not required to make a certain number of edits each month to be an admin I really don't have enough contribution history to be confident you will use the toolset correctly.

  2. Opppose. (edit conflict) I think you're still slightly underexperienced at this point. True, you've been editing since 2005, but you have only been actively editing for one month in the last two years. In fact, 292 of your 296 edits this month happened today. Quite a lot has changed in those two years, so I think it'll take a little more time to get back into the swing of things. Also, you'll want to get some more experience in the Wikipedia namespace to show you have a solid handle on policies and procedures. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

  3. Oppose (edit conflict) Sorry, but absolutely no article work at all and just ~1000 mainspace edits since 2005 is not approximately enough. —αἰτίας •discussion• 20:59, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Oppose. I'd suggest that you withdraw this nomination. Your first, two years ago failed because you only had 20 or so edits to the mainspace. Two years later you still only have just over a thousand. --Malleus Fatuorum (talk) 20:59, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment Looking back further, you will see more anti-vandal activity. My absence was due to Real Lifetm getting in the way. Scienceman123 talk 21:00, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Oppose no article work and few edits. Suggest withdrawal or closure per WP:SNOWIronholds 21:03, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
