[edit] Shreshth91

Final (22/0/0) ended 07:46 3 December 2005 (UTC)

Shreshth91 (talk • contribs) – I would like to nominate myself for adminship. I have been around for 6 months minus three days today. I have nearly 2300 edits in that time of which near 1000 are on article namespace, 400 in project and the rest widely distributed over the other namespaces. I have been active on AfD, mostly closing keep discussions and some voting thrown in. I have hopefully managed to show a certain amount of level-headedness which is expected of an admin. I have managed to get very involved in every aspect of WP. May the Force be with you! Shreshth91($ |-| r 3 $ |-| t |-|) 07:46, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

Important message: I will be leaving town within 12 hoours because of unforeseen cpmplications. I will only be returning on Sunday morning 4th of December. By then this RfA will have been closed. However if a bureaucrat feels that some pressing concern has come up in my absence, they may extend the closure time by 1 day, and I will surely respond. Thanks.--May the Force be with you!

  7. Support: Yes I am supporting him. And, I feel guilty – I should have nominated him. Anyway, now, it is ok. The meaning of his name in Sanskrit and many languages of North India means ‘the best’, and during my inter-action with him for last several months, I really found him to be one amongst the best. All the best to him. And, may the Force be with Shreshth, now and always! --Bhadani 11:46, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

  19. Support. You were the first to vote on my first RFA. Your vote was "Oppose--too inexperienced" :) That, somehow, started a plie-on. Now, Im gonna support you, mainly as a thank you for allowing me to step back and gain the experience that I needed to become a Sysop. I know that you will do a good job. "May the force be with you!"

Questions for the candidate
A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
A. On my RC patrols, I have occasionally come across vandals and have duly warned them with {{test}} and its variations depending upon the severity of their actions. I will obviously now be doing a bit of blocking myself. When monitoring new pages, I come across hundreds of nonsense articles. I will be using admin tools to delete-on-sight such articles. Also, till now, I had only been closing keep discussions on AfD, I will, should I be nominated, also be deleting articles which deserve to be deleted. I will also help clean out the backlog on TfD, SfD, CfD and CP.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. I have my own page of work that I am especially proud of- User:Shreshth91/articles. I have created about 30 articles and of them I am most proud of National Physical Laboratory, India and Proby Cautley. Of the other articles I have edited considerably to Constitution of India, Fundamental Rights, Directive Principles and Fundamental Duties of India and Government of India stand out. I have very recently created Template:User new message which, though not in very widespread use right now, still is a very useful template for newbies. I am a very active cleanup-er and also a stub sorter. Any article that I come across on RC, I try to clean it up as well as I can. Therefore, I can say, most of my work is janitorial.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A. I have always tried to maintain a certain amount of decorum. In my early days, I used to take many things personally, but now, things are much different. I would say the closest I have got to a full out debate was Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of men famous for being well endowed. I have always responded very courteously and calmly to any comments to me and I have received many such messages as can be seen from the fact that I have archived my talk page once and am on the verge of doing so agian.
