Lir has 20-30,000 edits (under several accounts). She has been here for several years. She is a friend of Jimbo Wales. Lir has been a tireless critic of sysop abuses of power; as such, it is highly doubtful that she will abuse the power in any way.--Cosmic Disaster 99 03:56, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)

  • Wow, I don't know what to say -- how nice of you, whoever you are. I certainly accept; I can't imagine any reason that someone would oppose my nomination. I have worked tirelessly on thousands of articles and only wish the best for the Wikipedia. Lirath Q. Pynnor
