Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/LuK3 2

This is an RfA talk page.

While voting and most discussion should occur on the main RfA page, sometimes discussions stray off-topic or otherwise clutter that page. The RfA talk page serves to unclutter the main RfA page by hosting discussions that are not related to the candidacy.

Please remain calm and civil in discussions on both pages, avoiding personal attacks and harassment. Uninvolved administrators can still fully intervene in RfAs.
Discussions should stay on-topic; consider moving or continuing discussions that are going off-topic elsewhere.
Move discussions not germane to the candidacy here, then link them with {{subst:rfan|dm|name of section header}}, indented to the original vote. Be conservative in using the template; obvious trolls and disruptive participants need not be noticed.
Otherwise, avoid starting discussions here if they would be of interest to RfA participants and can fit on the main RfA page; generally, discussions should begin at the "General comments" section or as an indented reply to a vote.

AfD statistics

@GeneralNotability: Thanks for replying to my comment. In reviewing the candidate's AfD stats[1] I wasn't so much concerned about the overall number of delete and keep votes. It is, of course, entirely plausible that an editor specialises in cleanup and therefore nominates many articles for deletion but puts in less effort to rescue articles. Rather, I was basing my comment on the fact that he has voted multiple times for delete when the debate ended in keep, but zero times he voted keep but the debate ended in delete. These show that the candidate leans heavily towards delete compared to most other editors. I hear Charles Stewart's argument that in some of these cases alternatives were suggested after he has voted, but this doesn't negate the wider observation that he preferred to delete an article and did not consider how it could be saved.

Deryck Chan, okay, that's fair - I hadn't seen that particular trend. I understand your concerns now and can't disagree with your data. GeneralNotability (talk) 00:40, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
