Nomination
(0/5/0); Scheduled to end 20:49, 14 March 2009 (UTC)  Closed early per WP:SNOW. Peter Symonds ( talk ) 00:09, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

– I believe that I am qualified to be an admin. I have patrolled new pages. I have reverted incorrect edits. I believe that my contributions could grow with adminship. To User:Pedro - I didn't mean that I would block users for an incorrect edits. I meant that if there is an incorrect edit problem I would protect the page. As I state in Q4, I would never block a user for one incorrect edit. Amlnet49 (talk) 20:49, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

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: As I have said, new article patrol (deletion if article is qualified), incorrect edits on road articles, making Wikipedia a reliable place for info.


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A: Articles about roads. I've liked them since I was 2 and most of my edits have been to articles about roads.


 * 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: No. The closest thing to a stressful situation was with User:Polaron over some New York and Conn. exit lists but its okay now.


 * 4. Will you respect administrative tools?
 * A: Certainly. I take on the job with respect and self-imposed limits. I will only use authority when necessary.

AML says: "No need to get stressed. To anyone who cites Pedro - I changed my candidacy notice. I guess there was misunderstanding with my comment!"

Support

 * 1) Support I believe, despite your edit count that you will excel at admin duties. Nickandpete (talk) 23:43, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Definitly. Also claims to be a joint account and should be blocked.-- Patton t / c 00:03, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
 * I had an old account with Pete but he created his own account and after we deleted our original account I created this one under the same name today.

Oppose

 * 1) WP:NOTNOW - Sorry, 1) < 500 edits, 2) your response to Q1 "incorrect edits on road articles (blocks)" is exceptionally alarming (you intend to block editors for "incorrect edits"?!). Sorry. Pedro : Chat  22:37, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose Per above Lets  drink  Tea  22:47, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose - per Pedro - try again perhaps in several months with more experience. - Fastily (talk) 22:50, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose WP:NOTNOW perfectly applies here. Try working in the WP-namespace - experience and expertise is contagious. flaminglawyer 22:54, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
