Ipfreely555
'''Final tally: 0/7/0. Originally scheduled to end 18:18, 7 June 2010 (UTC). Closed by HJ Mitchell  &#124;  Penny for your thoughts?   at 18:48, 31 May 2010 (UTC) per WP:NOTNOW.

Nomination
– Hello Admins, and Welcome to my RfA. My accoujt name is Ipfreely555, yet I substitute my real name, Michael Suman, because of my strange username (sockpuppeting a new account would not look good). Although I'm still technically a teenager, born 14/5/1995, I'm a total "Wikipediaholoc" (yes, I've read the article on wikipediaholism under the template:humor tag) and, according to my Preferences page, have 306 current edits on the English Wikipedia. My reason for becoming an Admin is as an attempt to fight against vandals, after nabbing TheSesameStreetVandal, made up of roughly 21 users, most of my edits have surrounded his/her capture: Elmodude, elmodude1, elmodude2, elmodude3, elmodude4, elmodude5, elmodude, elmodudex, elmodudereturns, elmodudette, bertman2, bertman3, bertman&robin, bertmanreturns, bertmanforever are a few I can remember from the top of my head. I naturally am reliable( although edits made in Year 7 whilst I was an authority-hating idiot moron were in vein) and have contributed to many critical pages in the Wikipedia. I have created a few pages too, such as the page on social networking website FunnyJunk. The FJ page was however removed, many edits by inexperienced users such as listing the ways users can upload photos in steps and attempting the display of an image through an external site (which is impossible) were its downfall. I am very experienced with wiki-markup, and my userpage is a great example of this; a logo, navigational sidebar, list of contributions, and humerus quote-of-the-day are its features (best viewed with Mozilla Firefox as IE does not support rounded borders). Please consider my request and send me response via my talk page. Michael Suman. ''' i PEE  freely 555 06:01, 30 May 2010 (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 mentioned above, vandalism reversion is one of my passions. Altering incongruous data is also something I regularly take part in - whilst researching the history of Cambodia, non-working before and after links with incorrect flags were extremely annoying. I have encountered this in places such as the Main screen, and the inability to edit this is not exactly enjoyable.


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A:The capture of the multiple user based SesameStreetVandal is disputably my best work (I've yet to recieve a barn-star; wink, wink) and enjoy cleaning up 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?
 * A:I Have yet to be involved in an editing conflict recently - after year 7 as mentioned above - although I have breached certain policies occasionally. My use of a copyrighted free-use image of Cadbury/Wonka owned Nerds candy is the only I can remember. In the (distant) past I've tried to create fake articles which I see now as (without sugar coating it) totally retarded. Ignoring this, my record is A+

Discussion

 * Am I missing something? What's wrong with his username? —Tommy 2010 18:48, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Some people would say that his user name is taking the piss, Tommy. Leaky  Caldron  18:50, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Oppose
style="color:#169999;"> f o x ]] 18:25, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose Not enough edits and very little experience. Also, your username comes across as inappropriate and immature. Shannon ♫ (talk)  06:21, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose per WP:NOTNOW. Pilif12p 22:02, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose WP:NOTNOW. You'll need a few more months of editing and a few thousand more edits before I can support you (and a name change as well)--White Shadows you're breaking up 18:26, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Another thing, haveing an edit chart that resembles pac-man is never a good thing.--White Shadows you're breaking up 18:27, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Yikes! Yes, I must agree here. Most of your edits cannot be to your userpage. —Tommy 2010 18:49, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) Nowhere near ready. [[User talk:Fox|<font
 * 1) Oppose per showing lack of knowledge of citing requirements (you can't cite another WP page as a reference (which this edit doesn't exactly do, but same principle applies)). The username doesn't bother me, but the content does.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 18:33, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Oppose Candidate lacks experience, maturity and competence. Consider trying again in 2015. Leaky  Caldron  18:36, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose - Username alone decides me, suggest you change it asap. Experience is another big issue, however. Suggest this be closed quickly per WP:SNOW as, in my view, there can be little more constructive comments that can come of this Rfa. Jusdafax   18:38, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree he's not ready to be an admin, but in his defense, he's offered to change his username on his talk page . And his sig was not always the way it is up above.   —  Soap  —  18:43, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
