Alex756

 * User:Alex756 has been with us since April 2003 and has made over 2000 edits, often making our law-related articles more professional and accurate. Obviously not a red-eyed blood-sucking lawyer we have here! :-) He had been nominated by LittleDan months ago, and supported by mav. One assumes that they still support him, since Alex756 has not villify as far as I can detect with my vice-sensor. A prolific writer with specific insights into what exactly is lawful or not like him would make him an ideal administrator. --Menchi 06:26, Aug 23, 2003 (UTC)
 * Seconded. He seems to have a very clear Idea about law. I have the feeling that you will make a good addition to Wikipedia Adminship ;-) Fantasy 08:49, 23 Aug 2003 (UTC)
 * Thirded. Good choice. Angela
 * I accept the nomination &#8212 as I previously did on the mailing list in May &#8212; promise not to be heavyhanded in use of admin. powers; remind everyone that lawyers have a natural (is that nurture or nature?!) tendency to disagree (especially on legal positions) as legal cultures have their own NPOV approaches to documenting such differing points of view; and, finally, that nothing I post on Wikipedia is legal advice, just general legal information or my reflections on various legal questions that are presented to this cooperative community for consensus review.  I try not to be one of those generally disagreeable lawyers, &#8212; I believe compromise and cooperation are essential to any social system. Thank you for the nominations.

 * Another vote of support. Though I must say your acceptance post just above this looks vaguely like something a lawyer might write. :) --Delirium 00:01, Aug 26, 2003 (UTC)
 * Make it so! --mav 22:54, 30 Aug 2003 (UTC)
