This page contains essential information pertaining to me, Spebi, as an administrator on this project.

Overturning policy
Administrators, I trust that you will act within the bounds of common sense and relevant policies (delete, protect, block).

Therefore, please feel free to undo any of my administrative actions if it's clear I was incorrect in doing so or I made a blatant mistake. However, avoid overturning any of my actions if it is clear that it meets the following conditions:


 * I am offline at the time. If I am online and active, please discuss it with me before overturning;
 * Your action is within the realms of normal policy and process;
 * You are not involved in a dispute directly related to the action I made – do not overturn an action of mine that overturns an action of yourself or another; or
 * You are not overturning an action that is the result of a deletion debate – in which case, please contact me about reopening the debate or consider listing the article at Deletion review.

Blocks
Feel free to change the length of any of the blocks I have applied, on the condition that your change is in compliance with Blocking policy. I trust that you will judge the situation appropriately and know when it is worth contacting me about your block length change. The following is a table containing the standard block lengths that I apply to disruptive users – please note that this is not binding, it is merely a guide, and that I may completely ignore this table depending on the situation at hand.

I may issue blocks between the length of 1 hour to 12 hours, but this entirely dependant on the situation at hand. All of my blocks are made with the intent to protect the project from further disruption, rather than blocks made with the intent to serve as a punishment.

Potential candidates
I have never nominated anyone for adminship, and have no such plans to make any nominations in the future.

I believe that the best people to evaluate a candidate on how well they could act as an administrator would be the people who work with the candidate on a regular basis. I do not only consider the possibility that a candidate may "abuse" the tools (abuse in this context referring to "administrator abuse", i.e., blocking those who are company in a dispute, or other rogueness), but also the possibility that a candidate may "misuse" the tools, in the sense that they would consistently make bad judgements on whether a particular page would benefit from page protection, or a particular user from an extended block).
