[edit] Conscious

Final (75/0/0) ended 20:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Conscious (talk · contribs) – Conscious joined the project on 31 May 2005, and since then has amassed over 14,000 edits according to Interiot's toolserver based counter. An editor who undertakes a lot of maintenance work, he is an active member of WikiProject Stub sorting, and can often be seen at SfD as a result. In terms of article writing, he has made significant contributions to the featured article FIFA World Cup and the featured list List of top-division football clubs in UEFA countries. I regard him as an asset to the project and fully deserving access to the mop. Oldelpaso 18:11, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: Thank you. Conscious 20:33, 21 May 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, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
A: I prefer janitorial tasks, and am ready to help where backlog arises. I'm most familiar with WP:SFD and WP:CFD, but also interested in services like WP:RM, WP:CSD, or WP:CP (I have managed/am managing a few copyright claims there). I won't be looking for someone to block, but I know the blocking policy and what vandalism is. Conscious 20:33, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A: Most of my content contributions concentrate around football, or, as we say here, football (soccer). The first article I started was Russian Cup. As Oldelpaso mentioned, I have contributed to a featured list and a featured article as a part of my work with the guys from WP:WPF. I also try to give a better coverage of Russian football by writing articles about competitions, clubs, and players.
On the other hand, I have sorted a good deal of stubs and taken on other cleanup tasks like article categorization and clearing Special:Uncategorizedcategories. Conscious 20:33, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
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: I tend to work in the darker corners of Wikipedia. This and the very first advice from WP:DR (improve rather than reverting) leave me with no major conflicts. Talking also helps; for example, today I tried my persuasion on an anon, and it seemed to work. Among my stronger impressions is a not-too-pleasant discussion with Karmafist, when he engaged WP:WSS in December. Conscious 20:33, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
4. How do you feel about User:ShootJar/ProtectionProposal? ShortJason 23:15, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
It looks even more complex than proposed Wikipedia:Quasi-protection policy, which has been criticised (in some variants) for the amount of maintenance needed and (in some other variants) for the lack of effectivity. Conscious 18:19, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
