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 admin work do you intend to take part in?
 * I cannot stand vandalism and I operate a zero tolerance policy for vandalism. I would like to take part in vandalism prevention and removal. I would also like to see persistent vandalisers to be blocked permanantly. Also, I would like to restore any articles that have been almost completely been destroyed by vandalism. In addition to this, I would like to be given the chance to significantly expand the trains section of wikipedia.:


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * My best contributions a probably those to do with the InterCity 250 pages. I am proud of these because I enjoy expanding articles that are stubs, and also, to bring forgotten projects into the public eye. I am also proud of my image uploads because, they give a fresh image to articles.:


 * 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?
 * Yes, ACbest was reverting my images, I contacted him in a way I feel was not responsible and apologised soon after. I will contact the group that resolves editing disputes in future.:

Discussion

 * Britishrailclass91's [| current talk page] mentions that he "[doesn't] think that I will be requesting admin status anytime soon as I am content with listening and learning from my peers." Ansbaradigeidfran (talk)


 * I would note that unless Brc91 adds this to Requests for adminship then this RfA hasn't formally begun. As I understand it this user has decided not to proceed with it. Adambro (talk) 17:46, 20 April 2008 (UTC)


 * As part of this user's attacks on my talk page, they stated that they did not care that they had made such an attack. Not what a prospective admin should say. Btline (talk) 18:14, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Strongly Oppose User has only been active a few days and has really only caused trouble. Wait a while and come back again. --FGWQPR (talk) 21:09, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Strongly Oppose User is not fully conversant in the "five pillars", and struggles to maintain civility. Olana North (talk) 06:40, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) ' Strongly Oppose' My Watchlist has been absolutely clogged with this user's pointless and damaging edits, and then clogged again when someone else reverts them! I am simply amazed by this RfA! Btline (talk) 16:55, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Update It should be noted that this user made a personal attack on my talk page. Btline (talk) 17:44, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) Strongly oppose I have just come on, and the user has made a personal attack on my talk page too. Also, he seems to like changing things very unprecedently. Also, it should be noted that I think this user is only going for adminship to rub it in everyones face. This is a joke, isn't it?  ACBest  Dog and Bone  Have I reverted an editby you, and got it wrong? Tell me!  18:18, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Update I have just noticed that this RfA hasnt even been filled out properly. There is no description of the user.  ACBest  Dog and Bone  Have I reverted an editby you, and got it wrong? Tell me!  18:20, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) Strongly oppose and suggest closing per WP:SNOW. An abusive editor with little experience on Wikipedia is never going to be made an admin - this RfA is a joke. Talk Islander 18:20, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Note For this user's PAs I have added an appropriate warning. I had no idea that ACBest had been geting them as well. That I cannot ignore! Btline (talk) 18:26, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
