Suggestion
One thing that many people look for in an admin is not causing / being the centre of drama. There are certain members of the community who seem to attract ... attention. I'm sure you've met them, they like to come in to areas and shake things up. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but if you are not careful, you can get caught up in their wake.

Similarly, there are some very highly charged areas of Wikipedia, which are viewed by large portions of the community (ANI, AN and Jimbo's talk page for example). At these places tempers can flare quickly and comments can be easily twisted. Again, not a bad thing, but you must be careful when posting at these places to ensure you are not misinterpretted.

Now, you went and reported a very visible member of the community at a very visible area of the community. That was unlikely to work well, and I have to warn you that I think it will come back to bite you. Best to try not to do something like that again!

 * Oh, and for the record, I also think you were wrong in that post - DYK may or may not have issues. Quieting the "leader of the opposition" is not the way to fix the problems. Proving him wrong would be.  WormTT   &middot; &#32;(talk) 08:43, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
