Past candidates
I've been nominating (mostly co-nomating to be truthful) editors for the administrative buttons for quite some time now, originally starting back in April 2007 with (who now appears to have departed) and then taking a long break before starting up again November/December of the same year with. I've not stopped, really, since that point and I am continually finding new talent that is perfect material for an administrator candidate. I've now nominated 11 users to RFA, 8 successful and 3 unsuccessful.

I have had two other user who I have wished to nominate at RFA, but they either received other nominations or it was during my short retirement period, and so I was unable to write up a nomination, those being: and. Other users that I have discussed nominations with, are:
