Closing per WP:SNOW. There are many wonderful things in Wikipedia to enjoy before adminship. Please do not be discouraged, and do return later. Moreschi Talk 18:38, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Lake54
[ Voice your opinion] (1/6/1); Scheduled to end 17:49, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

- I am a strong believer in justice, and would like to help the wiki community by moderating the pages - I use the site many times a week, as well as at school, and would like to put something back into the WIki foundation. I have done moderating for some forums (ones, I have to admit I have set up myself) but I have been very successful, and don't use bias at all if it can be helped. Please consider me!Lake54 17:49, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. You may wish to answer the following optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
 * 1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
 * A: Anything really - I specialise in grammar and spelling


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A: I mainly do spelling and grammar, but am willing to do more to help the worldwide Wiki community.


 * 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:Not really - I have obviously made controversial issues on my own forums, but not ones that couldn't be resolved easily and fairly.

Discussion


Support
 * 1) Support User is too new to be sullied by wikipolitics and drama. Give the tools, adminship is no big deal! &#8212;M (talk • contribs) 18:25, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Oppose Neutral
 * 1) User has three edits, one of which shows a clear misunderstanding of WP:NOT and one of which was a change to his signature (which was posted in the article). Kafziel Talk 18:03, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 2) WP:SNOW .. Cometstyles 18:05, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 3) Lake54 has 9 total edits, 5 of which are related to the RfA. Become an editor first, my friend, before you seek a higher level of reponsibility. Akradecki 18:07, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose I urge you to withdraw before the number of oppose votes becomes discouraging. You need to show a lot more experience before making this application.--Anthony.bradbury 18:11, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose Thank you Lake for the offer. I'm sure your forums are fine work but Wikipedia is on the top 10 sites on the internet and parts can be rather complex. Spend a few months getting to know us and finding your way around. But for now, I would suggest you withdraw and focus on editing for a while. Let me know if I can help.  Jody B talk 18:13, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose While this user seems to have good faith, nine total edits, with 5 being on his RfA, I wouldn't support giving them the tools. Put some efforts in, and come back when you have more experience. --Nenyedi Talk Deeds@ 18:28, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) Neutral - Normally editcount is not a sufficient reason to deny adminship, but 9 total edits is insufficient. Sorry. Come back in a few months when you have made at least 2000 edits, and consider going through WP:ADOPT and WP:ADMINCOACH to get helpful advice on how to achieve adminship.
