Cyberjunkie
final (63/0/0) ending 00:45 October 17 2005 (UTC)

– Cyberjunkie has been contributing to Wikipedia since November 2004. He has over 6300 edits, with about 2600 in the article namespace, and an even spread across the other namespaces. He would be one of the most level-headed contributors I've had the pleasure of working with. He makes good article contributions; is always cool even when the editing gets hot; never resorts to personal attacks and is quick to defend others against attacks; is free with compliments and encouragement, especially to newbies; does his share of vandal-fighting; and generally shows all-round good judgement and a friendly demeanour.

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. I imagine my main sysop activity will be combating vandalism, something I do pretty frequently already. Although I tend to shy away from Afd – because I find the atmosphere a little…icky – I will continue to regularly vote there, and perhaps close some non-contentious discussions in the backlog. I also intend to assist newbie’s and other users, and to mediate in any conflicts taking place in any of the 2,300+ articles I currently monitor.


 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. I don't keep a record of articles I either write or contribute to, so you'll have to review my contributions to get a more specific idea. In article space, though I do write new articles, I mostly expand upon or attempt to improve existing ones. My primary aim is to improve coverage of Australia- and Adelaide-related topics and issues, but I also dabble in more general articles. My major work has been in templates and portals.


 * 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. I suppose I've been relatively fortunate in that I've not been involved in any serious conflicts, and certainly none personal – although I was once called "bossy" by an editor with whom I have since worked amicably :). Any disputes about content I have with others or others have with me have been worked out constructively on talk pages. I've skirted around the Skyring issue but have recently become more involved, and am prepared to weigh-in further if necessary. Most importantly, I dislike confrontation and will seek compromise wherever possible. I find Wikipedia therapeutic; however, every-now-and-then I will be on a (leniant) Wikibreak due to "real life" circumstances.--Cyberjunkie | Talk 07:49, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
