23skidoo
[ Vote here]  (58/0/0) ending 20:57 October 7, 2005 (UTC)

– 23skidoo first joined us on January 4, 2003&mdash; since then, he has amassed over 11,000 edits, nearly 9,000 of which have been to the Article Namespace. He is also a frequent contributor to the daily discussions at Articles for Deletion and other community-related discussions and holds approximately 900 edits in the Wikipedia Namespace. When not helping with Wikipedia, he works as a freelance journalist and book editor which is a definite plus. That said, I believe 23skidoo to be an exceptional candidate for adminship and give him my strongest possible support. Hall Monitor 20:57, 30 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

I'm happy to accept the nomination! Cheers! 23skidoo 00:39, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate

A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
 * 1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
 * A. I need to do a bit more research on that. Probably many of the same things I've been working on in the past. 23skidoo 00:39, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. I've been quite pleased with the series of articles K1Bond007 and I have put together relating to the James Bond novels. There's still plenty of work to do but I like how that group of articles have turned out. Also, because of my own personal knowledge of the subject I'm quite happy with the article on Rock Around the Clock which I reworked. 23skidoo 00:39, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * A. Occasionally I get a little put out if someone takes the letter of the law too literally or assumes all articles are like comparing apples to apples, but on the whole things have moved fairly smoothly around here for me. 23skidoo 00:39, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
