Thank you !
Hello Anon126, Wikipedia thanks you for offering to help in the capacity of an administrator. Sadly, your nomination is not likely to succeed. Major reasons for this are the limited time you have spent editing Wikipedia and the relatively low number of edits you have made to date; nothing personal. As you can see several people have already opposed your nomination and I suggest you withdraw. If you wish to gain from the experience by waiting out the week and taking into consideration the comments of other users you are free to.

If you wish to help Wikipedia in the capacity of an administrator in the future, you will need to be able to demonstrate why people can trust you with these very powerful tools. To do this, you may wish to help out with maintenance work - here are some pages that you might find helpful:


 * Wikipedia Backlogs
 * Deletion Debates
 * Administrators' noticeboard for Incidents
 * Administrators' noticeboard
 * Wikipedia Policy
 * Requests for Adminship
 * The NoSeptember Admin Project Statistics Site

Once you've spent several more months both creating new content and helping administrators out behind the scenes, you may be ready for another request to become an administrator. You might wish to try an editor review before another request to become an administrator; this is often useful before a new request for adminship and can help you decide if you are ready to stand again. Please remember that whatever happens, many of the administrators you see today on the administrator's noticeboard went through the RfA process at least twice before the community promoted them; one admin notably made seven attempts before succeeding.

Please don't take any RfA criticism personally; rather, look on the process as a constructive way to help you become a better editor. Please don't rush to become an administrator, but take your time and allow the community to take the time we need to be able to judge that we can trust you and your judgement. Look through the various policies and above all, have fun and enjoy yourself building Wikipedia. Once again, Wikipedia thanks for your nomination and we all hope you won't be too upset at the result. If you have any questions feel free to ask me. James086 Talk &#124; Email 10:25, 20 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi. I just closed your RfA to stop people piling on (as they have an unfortunate tendency to do here on Wikipedia). Please do read James086's post above, it's full of really good advice.  I am sure that, if you do some work on Wikipedia over the next few months, there would be no problems with a future request for adminship.  Don't be disheartened!
