  1. Please get more familiar with Wikipedia and its policies first; I urge you to withdraw this nomination. Thanks! Flcelloguy (A note?) 23:11, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
  2. WP:SNOW. User created account today, has 15 total edits, copied another user's page (thanks, OhNoitsJamie) and gave himself Barnstars. (Edit: this comment was just purged by the candidate.) RadioKirk talk to me 23:12, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
    It is also highly likely that User:Rickabbo is the same person. RadioKirk talk to me 23:59, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
    He could have forgotten his password or even that he had an account. Both edits from that account are from August 2005. —CuiviénenT|C, Tuesday, 16 May 2006 @ 00:05 UTC

  3. Strong Oppose First edit today? You need AT least 3-6 months on Wikipedia before becoming an admin. You need to get more familiar with the Wikipedia policies and I suggest withdrawl. ForestH2
  4. Strong Oppose Unfortunately, anyone can say that he/she/it is willing to work really hard on Wikipedia, but that person may actually be a vandal. Renominate yourself (or wait for someone else to nominate you) after you've demonstrated devotion to working on Wikipedia, and then I'll change my vote. --M1ss1ontomars2k4 | T | C | @ 23:20, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
  5. Strong Oppose One day of editing (which consisted of nothing but vanity edits and copying another user's userpage). OhNoitsJamieTalk 23:33, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
  6. Strong Oppose - here comes the pile on. Don't undo negative votes on your RfA. That's very wrong. - Richardcavell 00:37, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
  7. Strong Oppose. I'm sure the reason is quite clear..... I suggest withdrawl.—G.He 00:55, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
