Angr
[ Vote here] (35/0/0) ending 14:40 10 September 2005 (14:40 UTC) - a professional linguist editing mainly (but not only) linguistics related articles, I am always glad to see Angr's name show up on my watchlist. He has proven himself valuable in both adding original content, and defending existing content against degradation. kate says Angr has 7372 edits (two thirds of which are to article namespace). dab (&#5839;) 14:40, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Comments

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. The admin privileges that are most important to me are: deleting appropriately (both speedy candidates and failed AFD nominees), undeleting where necessary, and rolling back vandalism.
 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. I'm especially proud of my contributions to the areas of Celtic linguistics, the field I know most about. The contributions to Irish phonology are almost entirely mine; its current state can be compared with what it looked like before I started work on it.
 * 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. Not too much. I had a fight with Miskin a couple months ago after calling one of his edits vandalism (I was provoked by a sarcastic comment in an edit summary of his). I later apologized for doing so. The experience taught me a lot about dealing with other editors with whom I disagree, and to be more careful about assuming good faith. My only other conflict was with Zivinbudas, who came into conflict with a lot of editors and wound up getting banned for a year. With him, I had tried placation and the voice of reason to no avail.
