[edit] Discussion

Support

Oppose

  1. Bad answers.  Runewiki777 18:17, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  2. User has been unwilling to work with other editors and borderline combative and revert-warring on Kimbo Slice, including templating another user who he had a disagreement with. east.718 at 18:25, August 13, 2007
  3. Not nearly enough experience, with less than 3 months of editing and 196 edits, 16 edits in projectspace.--Atlan (talk) 18:31, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  4. Suggest withdrawl...this edit (in addition to the weak answers) makes clear that this user doesn't quite understand what admins are about...You need a lot more experience. — Scientizzle 18:34, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  5. Oppose Few edits. Get involved with Wikiprojects and deletion discussions to enhance your Wikipedia knowledge. Miranda 18:36, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  6. Oppose - Lack of experience, apparent lack of understanding of the project and administrative responsibilities. Lara♥Love 18:39, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  7. Oppose - Lack of experience, lack of understanding of administrative duties. Chrislk02 (Chris Kreider) 18:42, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  8. Strong Oppose - By your answers, escpically number 1, shows very little knowledge of what an admins job is. I recomend that you withdraw this RFA. Politics rule 18:45, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  9. Oppose Come back in about 1000, 1100 edits. However, already you have made 4 reports to AIV. That's commendable for a newbie. J-stan TalkContribs 19:02, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  10. Oppose from a simple and obvious lack of experience and understanding of the application of policy. The meager responses to questions here demonstrates either an inability to communicate properly or a lack of research on the RFA process, either of which concern me. VanTucky (talk) 19:18, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  11. Oppose- You do not have enough experience to be trusted with the admin tools. Get some experience in anti-vandalism efforts, the Counter-Vandalism Unit is a good place to start. Perhaps you could go up for editor review; another helpful toopl can be The Transhumanist's Wiki-school. Good luck! Neranei talk 19:27, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
  12. Strong oppose. Not anyone can request adminship and be approved. Maybe in a few months. •Malinaccier• T/C 19:33, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
