Final (talk page) (0/6/0); Ended 19 September 2007 19:31 (UTC)

Missingno390 (talk · contribs) - A very intelligent user who likes to be a leader. In 2007, Wikipedia lay in ruins, and the words on the screen said: "Missingno. was here." 17:45, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

I do hereby ACCEPT this nomination to the position of Wikipedia Administrator. In 2007, Wikipedia lay in ruins, and the words on the screen said: "Missingno. was here." 17:51, 19 September 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
A: I intend to take part in a moderate workload consisting of everything.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: Made a redirect from El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles de Porciúncula to Los Angeles and corrected vandalism in Windows Registry.
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 been in any edit conflict(s) and no users have made me stressed. If this happens, I will tell them nicely not to do that again.

[edit] General comments

Please keep criticism constructive and polite. Remain civil at all times. If you are unfamiliar with the nominee, please thoroughly review Special:Contributions/Missingno390 before commenting.

[edit] Discussion

  • I politely urge Missingno390 to withdraw this nomination. You have limited experience to convince the broader community that you can be trusted with the tools. Hiberniantears 18:33, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I also urge withdrawl, but I'm afraid less politely. You couldn't even be bothered to leave and edit summary on transclusion [1] and your opening statement is, well, frankly bizarre. Pedro |  Chat  19:06, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Support

Oppose

  1. Oppose. Sorry, but this is your most substantial edit. Suggest you withdraw as I can't see anyone supporting at this stage. — iridescent (talk to me!) 18:22, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  2. Oppose and suggest withdrawl - I don't want to list reasons as I don't want to discourage you in the process here, but you are clearly not ready yet. Maybe in a few months. -18:50, 19 September 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by WarthogDemon (talk • contribs)
  3. Oppose. I honestly don't understand what was meant in the nomination, but your answers show you're not ready. Taking part in "everything" shows that you don't know what adminship really is, anyone can make a redirect, and we wouldn't have the WP:Mediation Cabal, WP:Mediation Committee, WP:RFCC, and the WP:Arbitration Committee if users would listen to someone who told them to "not to do that again." Try installing something like WP:Twinkle to wet your feet with some auto-editing first. J-ſtanTalkContribs 18:58, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  4. Oppose - If you're serious about adminship, I suggestion you start by seeking adoption to learn how to flesh out your time here. Into The Fray T/C 19:18, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  5. Oppose clearly not qualified, insuficient editing experience, the answers to the questions are not convincing, and the nomination statement about Wikipedia laying in ruins, and the words on the screen said: "Missingno. was here." does little to inspire confidence: the admin tools even if overtly abused are unlikely to leave WP in ruins, but it will create lots of clean up work for others - why chance it?

    That is his signature actually... — Edokter • Talk • 19:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
  6. Oppose 51 edits? Appreciate your enthousiasm, but we need at least some experience. Oh and, please shorten your signature, and to something less grandeur. — Edokter • Talk • 19:25, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
