[edit] Adun12

Final (0/6/2) Ended 05:42, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

Adun12 (talk • contribs) - I am vehemently anti-vandalism, and I wish to further pursue the vandals who mar our wonderful information repository. Adun 02:09, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: I accept nomination.

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What sysop chores do you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog and Category:Administrative backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.

A: I would revel in the ability to sort through backlogs, especially those pages nominated for deletion, and users nominated for blocking.

2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any with which you are particularly pleased, and why?

A: All of my most recent anti-vandalism work has been my favorite.

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: I have had one conflict with another user. It was a misunderstanding caused by concurrent edits, where I accidentally chose his name instead of the actual vandal's when warning. I remained calm, and I responded appropriatly by apologizing for my mistake and reversing the things I had done. The conversation can be viewed on my talk page.

Oppose

1. Oppose. I'm sorry, but you have too little experience. Come back in a few months, after getting both more experience and experience that isn't vandal fighting. -Amark moo! 02:26, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
2. Oppose poor answers to questions (1 sentance is not enough) and not enough experience. Cbrown1023 talk 02:32, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
3. Oppose Sorry, I hate editcountis, and really want us to lower the numbers, but this is toooo low, suggest withdrawal at this time.--Doc^g 02:37, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

6. Oppose not even 500 edits. Dionyseus 04:04, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Neutral

1. A couple of months experience and a good few hundred edits, so your off to a brilliant start. You'll need to edit in some different areas and perhaps increase your edit rate (try WP:TWINKLE) and write a little of whatever you know about and if you come back here in a few months, I'm sure you would likely pass. If your unsure as to why I or the others have opposed, please read Wikipedia:Successful_adminship_candidacies which shows what level of contributions and experience admins need to have these days. -- Heligoland 02:35, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
2. A productive and very well-meaning editor. Just wait about three months and ~2500-3000 edits and you should tear apart your next RfA. Most of your edits are in the last week-and-a-half and there's no evidence you have sufficient experience with Wikipedia policy, especially apart from vandal-fighting. You might try WP:AFD once in a while. ;-) Grandmasterka 04:39, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
