[edit] Teh tennisman

Final (0/1/0) ended 17:16, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Teh tennisman (talk • contribs) – Self-nom-I am not sure if I can become an admin at this point, but I feel that if you do not take into account my edit count, I am a good candidate. Edits grow with time, but skills and feelings have to be part of you, not a program. Also, if people vote against me, I would be glad of any advice as to what I need to do to be more ready to beome an administrator.Teh tennisman 16:38, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: Since this is a self-nom, I accept.

I'm closing this RfA based on this diff. Yanksox 17:19, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

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 voters:

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 believe I would mostly do things such as patrolling for and reverting vandalism as well as helping new users, as I can relate to most newbie issues from my early days. Also, I would like to help with the deletion police. I would also still like to be a copyeditor and writer, as those are the two things I know best.

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

A:I think that I have a few: My sheer editload on a few pages that were utterly unintelligible that are now fairly decent articles; my articles that I have written to further explain things about which I know; and my antivandalism on a few pages that were vandalized to the point of utter disgrace.

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:Mostly I have had little trouble with others, and the few times I have I have been able to help resolve the issue with little fighting.

Discussion (for expressing views without numbering)

• Please provide some evidence as to your editing and administrative abilities in the form of difs relating to the answers given above. Items such as opinions given at XfD discussions, user Talk interactions, Wikiproject participation, vandal fighting, etc would be ideal. (aeropagitica) 17:13, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Support

Oppose

1. Oppose. You have only 343 edits, hardly what constitutes as "experience". You have done a good job so far, but I suggest you withdraw the RfA and try again in a few months after a few thousand more edits. Nishkid64 17:15, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
