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:Administrative backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.

A: I plan to contribute to articles that I have first hand knowledge about, or ones that I can fully research on update. I also hope to fight against vandals that use this great resource as a toy.

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

A:I am very pleased with my work against a racist vandal who had destroyed the Middle East article with some racist terms

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 not had major conflict. But if such conflicts to arise to plant to use the discussions pages as a resource to politely and calmly present my view to collaborate with that user to form a better article

Discussion

Support

1. Moral support. I suggest you withdraw this RfA before it gets closed per WP:SNOW. But hang in there, get more experience and try again in a while. —KNcyu38 (talk • contribs) 23:35, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

1. Oppose - Sorry I don't think you're experienced enough at this time. You may with to withdraw your nomination and read Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship. —dgies^t_c 23:15, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
2. Oppose - 32 edits edits (less taking out edits in creating this RfA and another with a slightly different name) and the inability to see any evidence anywhere on Wiki that this user understands and can apply policy correctly forces me to Oppose at this time. Given a 2 - 4 months of solid edits, plenty of article writing and showing the community you can apply policy suitably and I'll happily support. I must also strongly implore you to withdraw this nomination quickly as it will likely be unsuccessful. -- Nick ^t 23:17, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
3. Oppose. 32 edits, too new for adminship. I suggest you get 3,000+ edits before considering adminship. Also, get involved in RC patrol, AIV reporting, and XfDs since they will give you an idea of what adminship is and what it is used for. After you've contributed here for a bit longer, you can request an editor review to find out what other people think you can improve on, and from there you can consider going up for adminship again. I also suggest you withdraw this RfA, since there is no chance of it succeeding at this current time. Nishkid64 23:18, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
4. Oppose I regret, nowhere near enough edits, and no evidence of useful experience.--Anthony.bradbury 23:21, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
5. Oppose but only on grounds this user is a bit too new. If he wants any help, he's welcome to ask me.... --sunstar net^talk 00:18, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
6. Oppose. Your desire to contribute is appreciated. But right now you have nowhere near enough experience on Wikipedia to be given serious consideration as a candidate for admiship. From what I can see looking at your contribution history, you've made only 32 edits to Wikipedia, with more than half of them being back in June 2006. Most successful admin candidates have made, at a minimum, at least 2,000 Wikipedia edits, and have a track record of several months as a consistent, positive contributor. Right now, keep contibuting becuase you don't have to be an admin to be a positive contibutor to this project. Then consider coming back and applying for adminship when you've got much more experience. Zaxem 00:25, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Neutral

1. Neutral. 32 edits. Bureaucrats, please close this one before it gets too ugly. A Train ^{take the} 23:15, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
