Orioane
final (27/0/0) ending 18:59 12 December 2005 UTC (UTC)

– I'm nominating Orioane since he's done some good work at Wikipedia in the past, particularly in regards to the Bucharest article. He is helpful, friendly and I think he would use his administrator capabilities really well! Ronline ✉ 10:06, 5 December 2005 (UTC)

 * 7) Support. He's done a lot of good work on Romanian topics, and I think he would make a good admin. Even-tempered; can distinguish where he is expert, where he is merely clueful, and where he's out of his depth, and act accordingly; etc. Slight hesitation about breadth of experience in Wikipedia, but nothing that actively worries me. In the event that he doesn't make it at this time, we should re-nominate in a few months. -- Jmabel | Talk 05:45, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

Oppose
 * 1) Oppose. We don't need more admins. Most vandalism that lasts longer than a few hours would not have been reverted even if every Wikipedian, anonymous or not, had the rollback feature. 202.58.85.8 07:02, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
 * This is a proven vandal IP who has been disqualified and temporarily blocked from editing Wikipedia for disruption of the Requests for Adminship page and its subpages and for continued WP:POINT violations. --LBMixPro&lt;Sp e ak 08:25, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

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 check out Category:Wikipedia backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
 * A. As administrative activities, up untill now I've removed quite a lot of vandalisms from the pages I watch and from other pages vandalised by the vandals I've discovered. Also I've made some welcomings and recently I began chasing images with copyright violation. I certanly will continue these activities either way and will try to add other administrative measures (I am quite intrested in helping with moves) when time allows it.


 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. I am quite found of the contributions I've made on the article about my city, Sibiu. It is my most cherished article and it has become one of the most serious article concerning Romanian cityes. I plan to continue developing it after the winter holidays when I'll be making some research. I improuved heavily the article about the Culture of Romania and that is, by far, the biggest contribution I've made to a single article. I am pleased with this article because I managed to syntethise a lot of information concerning a subject as complex as this. Also, as Ronline said, I tried to add my contribution to the Bucharest article and we had some very constructive discussions on the Talk page.


 * 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 followed for a period the "war" that took place on the Moldovan language, but I tried not to intervene because the talks have degenerated into assaults and the discussions were quite crowded. Also, linguistics it is not my field of activity and I couldn't have helped with an expert POV that was needed there. despite this, I am quite found of helping the war extension on the Daco-Romanian page, where I helped created the first widely accepted version. Also, I filed a 3RR violation complaint for a user that was modifying the article about the Treaty of Trianon according to his POV, without discussing much on the Talk page. The user was banned for three days, and has since used sockpupeting to make the modifications. That article on a such a delicate subject, needs some expert contribution and I hope I can help by calming down users who have violent contributions.
