ShootJar (talk · contribs) – A visonary with a plan to take Wikipedia into the future. If he doesn't deserve to be an administrator, I don't know who does! ShortJason 21:54, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

I accept.

Support

  1. Adding the dreaded Moral Support. -- Jjjsixsix (t)/(c) @ 00:00, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Oppose

  1. Oppose. Not enough experience. Only 18 edits in total with only 1 edit in the main namespace. This move that you did is also pretty interesting: [1]. DarthVader 22:10, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  2. Strong Oppose. Not enough contributions/experience and the Discuss here is malformed. I am also unhappy with the answer to question 2. I suggest withdrawl. Sorry.—G.He 22:11, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  3. Oppose please withdraw and try again in 6 months Jaranda wat's sup 22:30, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  4. Oppose Please withdraw. Olorin28 22:32, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  5. Strong Oppose Sorry, but the nomination isn't even formatted correctly. Master of Puppets That's hot. 22:36, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  6. Strong Oppose You're most proud of your userpage essay? I concur: withdraw the nom. --Fbv65edel (discuss | contribs) 22:56, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  7. Oppose, of course. Raichu 23:17, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  8. Oppose. This user may or may not be ready for a sit-down with Jimbo and the developers, but a vision alone does not an adminship make. RadioKirk talk to me 23:20, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  9. Oppose For the reasons stated above. Mr. Turcottetalk 23:33, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  10. Oppose per all. --Nick Boalch\talk 23:35, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
  11. Oppose per others, suggesting withdrawal/closure. -- getcrunkjuicecontribs 00:52, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
  12. Oppose, recommend withdrawal-- Before requesting adminship, I usually recommend 3,000-4,000 edits over 4-6 months as a minimum. An admin needs to have the experience that many edits brings. An admin needs to have actually taken part in numerous AfD discussions, reverted a significant number vandals, as well as creating and improving a substantial number articles.

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer 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.
A: I would help out on AfD. Mainly though, I would do what other users requested of me, serving to further the interests of the community.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A: Naturally, my user page essay (still not completely done) on reform.
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?
A: I've never really been in a conflict. However, as I do propose drastic change, I anticipate conflict. I will deal with it graciously, and try to explain by positions while still listening to others.
