Final (0/1/2): Ended 14:52 23 March 2008 (UTC) Withdrawn by candidate
TheBlazikenMaster (talk · contribs) - I have been on Wikipedia for a whole year. I admit I did make mistakes in the past, everyone has. But I have trying to be civil, and have been in discussions. I know how things work around here, I know I haven't been fighting vandals much, but it will all change after I've become an admin. If I'm not ready yet, I can understand, but I think it's time I become one. I won't get offended if I get more oppose than support, there is always a second change.

- Close this nomination, I just realized myself, I'm not into Wikipedia enough to become an admin, please close this nomination, next time I will research on what being an admin is all about. Close this please. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 14:27, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Discussion
[edit]Support
[edit]Oppose
[edit]- Oppose - I'm having issues with some of your comments, namely [1], [2] Strange, [3] not the way to handle warnings at all, [4] completely dismissive. I just find these slightly unbecoming, and a little unsettling. There also appears to be some civility issues as well. Finally, you fail my balance criteria - wikispace contributions are deficient in areas I consider relevant for an admin: WP:AN, WP:ANI, WP:AIV etc..etc..

- No that's not the problem. I'm not ready, it was foolish of me to think I'm ready. I did revert number 2. But I now realize that I have to read about what adminship is about before nominating myself. Please close. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 14:29, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral
[edit]- You should try and answer the questions before transcluding the RFA. Rudget. 14:13, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I already did. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 14:14, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- A few pointers: If editors here don't see longer answers than that, they'll oppose based on experience grounds and not being able to communicate; or convey your ideas accurately. You might also want accept the nomination (even though it's a self-nomination, it's still done around here) and finally you might wish to expand your answers - especially numbers 1 and 3.

- Neutral leaning Oppose Lots of good points, but poor answers to the questions and some frankly deeply disturbing edit summaries. Swearing, threatening, refactoring comments at WP:AIV..... I'm not comfortable here. Pedro : Chat 14:23, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm not ready to be an admin, I know. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 14:34, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Can someone please close this nomination? I am not ready, far away from being ready. If I can't handle vandals properly, how the hell am I gonna handle being an admin? It's just too much work. Oh and don't call be uncivil, you're hurting my feelings. TheBlazikenMaster (talk) 14:32, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
