Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
 * 1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?
 * A: Mmmm... mostly vandal-fighting (i.e. blocking) and the often drop-a-vote/opinion discussion in AfD, RfC and my favorite one, WP:WQA.


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A: *Adjusts glasses* -- Well, my vandal fighting, copy editing here and there. I've created a couple articles, not much of a big article creator becuase mostly everything that interests me has already been created. So yeah...


 * 3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * A: Hmmmm.. let me see, my vandal figh-- Oh! wait, sorry, forgot the question. Well, I think I've gotten into the occasional disagreement on content but nothing to major from what I can recall. I realize that third party opinions always end up working, and mediation can be enlightening.


 * 4 What are your other feats.?
 * A: I'm on YouTube's most subscribed list! Ha! I'm popularzzzz -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:28, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) SUPER DUPER SUPPORT - Your world!, is my world!; and my fight is your fight! My breathe!, is your breathe! And your heartttt! -- A3RO  (mailbox)  03:05, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * You really shouldn't support yourself.--Giants 27 ( c |  s ) 03:07, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Support I find it so rare to find a refreshing RfA candidate worthy of me to make a comment here. SchmuckyTheCat (talk)

Oppose

 * 1) Really? Really. MacMedtalk stalk  03:03, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose per "Elisabeth Hasselbeck" vandalism.  Sluggo  &#124; Talk  03:04, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Conservative aboard! -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:08, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Changed to strong oppose due to personal attack. Sluggo  &#124; Talk  03:12, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Wait! HAHA!! OMGG!! I'M DIEING RIGHT NOW! Did you just admit that being called a conservative is considored an insult, despite it being an actual political philosophy?!!! HAHAAH!!! ROFL!!! OMG!! -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:20, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * He better not be drunk, because according to his user page, he's only 20. And a Yale student... Sluggo &#124; Talk  03:24, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose because this link (a template that you put on talkpages of vandals) really scares me. I worry that would be far too eager to block vandals if you become an administrator. -- Soap</B> Talk/Contributions 03:05, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Don't use that one! ;) -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:08, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose Is this a joke?--<font face="Bauhaus 93" color="black" size="3">Giants <font face="Bauhaus 93" color="black" size="3">27 ( c |  s ) 03:06, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) So yeah - I think not. Crafty (talk) 03:07, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) Nice use of color in your nomination oppose. <font color="#21421E" face="comic sans ms">Keeper | <font color="#CC7722" face="Papyrus">76  03:07, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I like hot pink better! -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:11, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) If you post ill meaning, harmful or violent messages to any user on Wikipedia, even anonymous users who edit without registering, you can face real life actions and consequences? Pile-on oppose. – iride  scent  03:09, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Why don't you look at the new template instead. Pile on STDs! -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:11, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Thoroughly entertaining. You might regret some of your posts in the morning A3RO.  Your behavior smacks of someone that has partook (partaken?  partucken?) a wee bit much of the snappy-juice. Recommend sleeping this off.   <font color="#21421E" face="comic sans ms">Keeper  | <font color="#CC7722" face="Papyrus">76  03:13, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Can I crash at your place? ;) -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:14, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I was wondering about that as well. Soused or stoned? I'm thinking he's been at the moonshine jug. Crafty (talk) 03:15, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * COMMENT - Guys!!!! LIKE OMGG!! GRRRR!!!!!!!! Stop being silly gooses and be seriouzzzz i'm seriously seriouzzzzz!! Geez! I have 90,000 edits! :) -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:17, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose The only non minor edit in the last 1000 was to transclude the RfA. Speedy delete tagging is a bit rough. eg A hoax labelled with G7 then G1. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 03:21, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose On the bright side, after this, A3RO will have some new things to write about for question three. ~ Amory ( u •  t  •  c ) 03:26, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose based on the fact that this RfA seems to have been made while under the influence. I would've just closed this, as it seems to simply be a mockery and a waste of everyone's time, but I've never closed an RfA before and couldn't find the appropriate templates. Recommend that anyone who is familiar with that process go ahead and do it now. Equazcion (talk) 03:27, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * User:EVula/admin might be of some help, if you're curious about the process :) The Earwig  (Talk &#124; Contribs) 03:34, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, because friends shouldn't let friends drink and edit. - Dank (push to talk) 03:38, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Neutral

 * 1) Your responses to questions are not convincing. I would revise them.  Triplestop  x3  03:01, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

Block Until the alcohol wears off.  Benders  Game  03:23, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * A fourth option for an RfA I've never seen before - how bold! Reminds me of this xkcd comic. ~ Amory ( u  •  t  •  c ) 03:30, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

NO BLOCK - I'm an established editor! WAIT OK GUYS!! I'll close my RfA, but look at this video on YouTube [redacted] TELL ME THIS IS NOT THE FUNNIEST THING YOU'VE SEEN!! HAHA -- A3RO (mailbox)  03:32, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
