User:Valereee/My Criteria

My criteria for an RfA support:
 * 1) Civil, patient, helpful, and kind
 * I like to see that this is invariably so with new users.
 * 1) Self-aware
 * I'm much more concerned with whether or not a candidate knows where their weaknesses lie and knows which things it's best they not muck about with than I am with their specific policy-knowledge gaps.
 * 1) Willing to seek and accept advice
 * 2) Able to disagree without becoming disagreeable
 * 3) Able to hear criticism without treating it as an attack
 * 4) Maybe content creation
 * If 1 through 5 are all excellent, I don't care about content creation. If any of them are not excellent, content creation is a must and lack of it is a deal-breaker for me, and honestly if 1 through 5 aren't at least "pretty darn good" then I won't support. Few administrative tasks require experience at content creation; most !voters who require it do so as a way of ensuring admins will be able to empathize with content creators and therefore be more likely to approach them helpfully. An editor who has the right temperament -- that is, has all of the qualities 1 through 5 -- is going to approach any well-intentioned editor helpfully. Without qualities 1 through 5, maybe content creators should just stay focussed on content as their best contribution.
