[edit] Val42

Voice your opinion (0/0/0); Declined, non-crat closure. MBisanz ^talk 06:16, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Val42 (talk · contribs) – He has a good record with admin tasks, including grammatical edits, and he has a lot of experience, having been a wikipedian since January 2004, and he has more than 4,000 edits. He also comes off as very polite, and his edits ae more diverse than a lot of admins that I have seen. He would be an excellent admin, and he deserves it. I realize that I do not have a strong edit history on this user name, but that should not make a difference, as Val42 is more than qualified, and, had he self-nominated, there would be little doubt that he would pass anyway. I simply filled out the form because no one else has, so do not use my edit history as any sort of bearing on Val42's qualifications.TheGreenFaerae 04:42, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

It is a pleasure just to be nominated. Considering that the proposed discussion period is now over, I figure that I should answer this question directly. Since I have taken this long to decide, I don't think that I would be right for adminship at this time. Right now, I don't have any extra time to dedicate to taking care of the backlog of administrative duties. For now, I'll stick with doing as much as I can as a user. Ask me again in six months and I may very well be willing to accept. Val42 04:43, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
