Oppose

  1. He's been here since mid-March, and has made fifty edits (including five here), all of beginner-level quality at best, some approaching vandalism (such as simply adding his signature to articles). I'm also a little worried by the fact that in nominating himself BugzPal deleted all the other nominations and self-nominations, and failed to notice or correct the mistake. It's difficult to believe that this is a serious self-nomination. Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 10:57, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  2. It should be noted that BugzPal didn't delete all the other nominations. 202.156.2.218 did [1]. However, the way he added his self-nomination back on doesn't really show that he is aware of vandalism when he sees it nor can he follow directions [2]. --Umofomia 11:07, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  3. Oppose. Only 50 or so edits, and one of them was incorrectly adding April 29 information to the April 28 page. -- Curps 11:20, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  4. Oppose. This diff shows BugzPal plagiarizing this web page. Be less bold, BugzPal, much less bold. -- Hoary 13:15, 2005 Apr 28 (UTC)
  5. Oppose, from going through his contributions, it seems he went through Wikipedia:Most wanted articles and placed copyvio material on every article he created - not exactly desirable behavior from an admin -- Ferkelparade π 13:54, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  6. What everyone else said, and didn't format this RFA correctly... CryptoDerk 14:58, Apr 28, 2005 (UTC)
  7. Kbdank71 17:06, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC) Creating, editing, and English awards have nothing to do with being an admin.
  8. Oppose. PedanticallySpeaking 18:30, Apr 28, 2005 (UTC)
  9. Strong oppose for plagerism and lack of experience. Linuxbeak 02:47, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)
  10. Oppose needs to make more positive contributions and to gain more experience. Tony the Marine
  11. Oppose. Too few edits. utcursch | talk 08:09, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)
  12. Strong oppose, not enough experience and posted numerous copyvio materials. Also, nomination was misplaced as it isn't a self-nomination. Mgm|(talk) 12:44, Apr 29, 2005 (UTC)
  13. Oppose for the same reasons as everyone else. I'm also concerned that the only supporter, the anon User:202.156.2.218 appears to have a pattern of edits simular to BugzPal. Jonathunder 02:05, 2005 Apr 30 (UTC)
  14. Strong oppose I normaly vote support and don't think edit counts are important, but 50 is way too few. Also I like to see admins doing janitorial work, this user has done none. Howabout1 04:10, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
  15. Andre (talk) 18:24, Apr 30, 2005 (UTC)
  16. Definitely oppose since he couldn't even be bothered to answer the questions below. Cburnett 04:45, May 1, 2005 (UTC)
  17. Mega oppose I wouldn't want to beat a dead horse so see above comments. — oo64eva (Alex) (U | T | C) @ 01:37, May 3, 2005 (UTC)
  18. Oppose User has no user page. Dmn / Դմն 19:41, 3 May 2005 (UTC)
  19. Oppose Normally, I don't vote, but this user only has 38 edits, no user page, and I think that it's too early. – ABCD 02:04, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

Comments

  • I feel that BugzPal is a superb person. He has won many awards in English Literary Competitions, English Composition Writing, and has countless English awards. He has became to English ambassador for our school and district. Vote for him. (Contributed anonymously at 10:44, 2005 Apr 28 by 202.156.2.218 (talk · contribs).)
