- I believe that the Wikipedia community would benefit greatly if I was an admin. At current, Wikipedia is HIGHLY biased and unneutral when it comes to facts about topics such as Communism and the Cold War. I feel that under my leadership, I could change Wikipedia for the better as a whole. Communist47 08:32, 24 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:

Ummm yeah I accept my own nomination for myself I guess...

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for participants:
 * Questions for the candidate
 * 1. What sysop chores do you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Wikipedia backlog and Category:Administrative backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
 * A: I wouldn't mind participating in the extraction of this syrup. Syrup extraction is one thing I excel at in the realm of syrup chores. I took a few classes in college. I can extract many kinds, as well, such as Maple, Apple, Corn and all other kinds of fruits. I also have, albeit limited, experience in the field of cough syrup. I'm also handy when it comes to molasses.


 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any with which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogs_of_War_%282000_computer_game%29

It repersents my ability to provide information and backstory without being too in-depth to the point of the article becoming a useless mush of unimportant facts.


 * 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: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Millm0w

This user had bothered me for some time, with harrassments and insults for no apparent reason whatsoever. At first I was confused, but I managed to handle the problem with a cool head and diffused the situation.

Support

Oppose Neutral
 * 1) An oppose to the nom, but a support to his humour: His contribution page showed that he was really too green to take adminship; his wikilink-less answers above might indicate his being unable to handle technical stuff well and therefore I can't trust him with the additional tools. However I must morally support his humour. This is the first person I've seen who made fun with the word "sysop" and changed it to "syrup". This humour is something I ought to respect. --Deryck C. 09:01, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) In Soviet Russia, I oppose you! BJ Talk 09:13, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Please do not joke around, Bjweeks. This is a serious nomination. Communist47 09:32, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose, poor nomination, and the usual story, not enough experience - a total of 93 edits since August 2005? Simply not enough.  The Rambling Man 09:40, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose Not enough experience here. Also, he/she has not well understood what are administrator's roles and duties. Happy Editing by  Snowolf (talk)CONCOI on  09:43, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose Fewer than 100 edits plus blatant POV-pushing? No chance. --Folantin 09:53, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * How is the natural superpower rule of the Soviet Union and the superiority of Communism to all other political and economic systems POV? It's fact. Communist47 09:56, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I suggest speedy closure of this RfA as a time-wasting prank. --Folantin 10:02, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I still don't know if he/she's joking or talking seriously :-) Happy Editing by  Snowolf (talk)CONCOI on  10:04, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I assure you this is not a prank. I think I could help stamp out anti-communist bias on Wikipedia.. Communist47 10:06, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
