[edit] Helohe

Final (1/15/1) ended 10:14, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Helohe (talk • contribs) – I'm using the project now for some time. Doing mostly music or science related articles. From time to time I help people at the reference desk. helohe (talk) 23:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Candidacy withdrawn. Until I have more editing experience. --helohe (talk) 10:14, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Support

1. Vote for myself. helohe (talk) 23:51, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

   You can't vote for yourself. Moe ε 00:07, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

2. Moral support, as people piling on is no fun. I'd urge you to withdraw your request until you have gained some more experience. Is there a bureaucrat that could close this off? Proto||type 09:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

   Ok, I withdraw the request for now. I'll try again after some time. helohe (talk) 10:06, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Oppose

1. Oppose. Only 177 mainspace edits; I think an admin should have significant experience editing articles. | Klaw ¡digame! 23:57, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
2. Oppose, lack of experience, brief/unanswered questions below. Essexmutant 23:59, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
3. Oppose per above. Naconkantari e|t||c|m 00:03, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
4. Oppose. Not enough experience, and seems not to understand some policies well yet (e.g., voted for self above) (ESkog)^(Talk) 00:04, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
5. STRONGEST OPPOSE POSSIBLE Less than 600 edits. Less than 200 on the main namespace. No answer to question 1 on below. No knowledge of Wikipedia policies shown. Moe ε 00:06, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
6. Oppose - Goofy errors, eg, self-voting, not using enough edit summaries, no answer to janitorial duties, not enough article or project/talk communications.Blnguyen | Have your say!!! 00:06, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
7. Oppose - Concerns about lack of experience. No Guru 00:17, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
8. Strongest possible oppose without intention of piling-on - adminship is not a power position. You seem to want it as a power position. It isn't, it's just more responsibilities and a couple of extra tools to help with the new responsbilities. With you I cannot safely say "user is unlikely to abuse tools", as you're too new for anyone to tell if you would. NSLE _(T+C) at 00:19 UTC (2006-02-23)

   I dont want to have a power position. Its just a few tools (easier revert,...) that I would like to have.helohe (talk) 00:24, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

9. Oppose understanding of WP operations is obviously limited. EdwinHJ | Talk 00:27, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
10. Oppose - lack of experience, lack of knowledge of Wikipedia processes. In addition to the relatively small quantity of edits, the quality of edits also questionable. – Doug Bell ^{talk•contrib} 01:46, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
11. oppose Lack of experiance, and lack of community interaction †Jakken† 02:53, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
12. Oppose - far too inexperienced. Mackensen (talk) 03:00, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
13. Oppose. you need more time. pschemp | talk 03:16, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
14. Oppose. I don't normally look at edit count, but in this case it's a clear symptom of a lack of experience. Give it some time, participate in your stated areas of interest: most article merges can be done by ordinary users, and your help with copyright problems will definitely be appreciated. Then, maybe in six months, ask an admin if they think you're ready for adminship. --MarkSweep (call me collect) 03:28, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
15. Oppose. Lack of experience. — Rebelguys2 ^talk 07:50, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Neutral

1. Snowballer. Seriously, there is no need for more oppose votes. Kusonaga 09:14, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

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

A. I contributed for example to Frederic Rzewski, Sorabji.

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?
