[edit] SCEhardt

Final (23/0/0) ended 05:55 10 December 2005 (UTC)

SCEhardt (talk · contribs) – SCEhardt has been with us on Wikipedia since January 2005. In that period he's made around 3000 edits. I discovered him putting speedy tags on unsourced images... looking over his contributions and talk page, he seems trustworthy enough to be given admin tools. It would be good to have more admins that deal with images. Coffee 02:43, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

  7. Support we need more people who have the power of delete to clear the backlog of no source images. SCEhardt has shown himself to be capable of this task. I have little fear he will abuse it.  ALKIVAR™ 08:22, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

Comments

  • Oppose. We don't need more admins. Images are being deleted fast enough - indeed, so fast that we now have users bitching about this to the mailing list. An admin is usually on hand to tackle requested moves, and it doesn't hurt if an article's at "the wrong name" for an extra day or two. Thanks to tagging and bagging, we speedy articles quite fast already. And as SCEhardt has noted, vandals aren't exactly easy to find these days. And when they are found, there's always an admin online who can be contacted to block them. (Just go to the admin noticeboard or IRC.) 202.58.85.8 07:21, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
This is a proven vandal IP who has been disqualified and temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia for disruption of the Requests for Adminship page and its subpages and for continued WP:POINT violations. --LBMixPro<Speak|on|it!> 08:45, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate
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.
I would anticipate helping with correcting or deleting 'no source' images, working on requested moves, and going through the speedy deletion category. I would also place temporary blocks on vandal IPs, although thus far I have not come across many persistent enough to warrant blocking.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
I've contributed numerous photos that I think improve both the informative and aesthetic value of the articles. Examples include Atlantic Station, Centennial Olympic Park, and many food articles. I have also spent time working on disambiguation link repair and image license issues.
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?
The largest disagreement I have been in unfolded on the Talk:Twix page about the inclusion of an ingredients list in the article. In any conflict situation I try to remain objective and work toward a satisfactory compromise.
