Tregoweth (talk · contribs) – A HUGE help in helping slay vandals, especially in light of the all-out assault by the troll nicknamed "Mascot Guy." Great work, great fun and a great asset to this site. Please support! - Lucky 6.9 05:27, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

  1. Extreme first support vote. I was going to nominate him myself, but I am a lazy slacker and I kept forgetting. Sorry. Gamaliel 06:15, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
  2. Strong support. This user has put in an amazing number of edits (not to fall victim to editcountitis, but over 16,000 edits shows strong commitment to the project). I don't see any problems with giving Tregoweth the mop. Ral315 WS 06:21, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

Oppose

Neutral

  1. Answers to the questions set below are very short. Astrotrain 21:15, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
    Did you want War and Peace? Mike H (Talking is hot) 08:45, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
    No, but he has written much less than any other candidate, it would have been better to specify what specific areas he was pleased with, and give examples of what conflicts he was involved in. Astrotrain 21:31, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

Comments

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 read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
A. A lot of my edits now are housekeeping of one form or another (copyediting, reverting bad edits, watching for vandalism, etc.); I expect as a sysop I would continue this, along with helping other people with speedy deletes, page moves, renames, and all of the other things I've asked of admins. :)
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. Probably my work on categories and disambiguation pages; I'm always pleased when I can make articles easier for someone to find.
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 have had a few minor conflicts (usually resolved), and some users have caused me stress, but I try to remain calm and reasonable.
