- - Tyw7 (talk · contribs) - Hi. I am User Tyw7. I have been previously editing as User Troop350. I have made over 1000 minor edits and major on Wikipedia as both Tyw7 and Troop350. I am also the current leader of WikiProject Software. -- Tyw7, Leading Innovations ‍ ‍‍ (Talk  ●  Contributions) 08:36, 21 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: Tyw7, Leading Innovations ‍ ‍‍ (Talk  ●  Contributions) 08:36, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

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 admin work do you intend to take part in?
 * A: Blocking vandals, helping editors in disputes to settle them peacefully, help editors who need to learn about tools and procedures. Helping clean up backlogs, keeping track of Special:Unwatchedpages, and vandal fighting.


 * 2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
 * A: I have made many edits so I consider all my work good contribution to Wikipedia.


 * 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: When I encounter any edit conflicts with another user, I would cancel my edit. Then I would consider both sides and solve the conflict calmly. I would consider the information that user wishes to add to Wikipedia.

 Comments  As the leader of WikiProject Software, I would probably need administrator tools, as there are currently no administrators in the project.

Oppose

 * 1) Oppose with moral support — I really support your enthusiasm and your willingness to help others, but I'm afraid it is too soon for you to become an administrator. I expect you may have more luck in half a year or so, after learning more about policy, doing some more article edits and continuing your anti-vandalism work. You may wish to read WP:NOTNOW, and try to rememeber that adminshop is no big deal :) Best of luck. —Cyclonenim (talk · contribs · email) 08:46, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Moral Support I am sorry to say it but the concerns raised at the last RfA are still to be addressed and 1224 edits (most of them without using edit summaries) do not allow us to judge you correctly. So I'd say, as Cyclonenim put it quite well, that this is a clear case of WP:NOTNOW and you should withdraw your RfA because it will be closed as WP:SNOW like the other two if you don't. You might want to read "adminship is not a trophy" as well. Regards  So Why  09:28, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Inexperience; You indicated that you wish to do vandalfighting, but I have not seen any contributions on WP:AIV. Would like to see more involvement in the internal processes, such as AfD. Please keep up the good work in your Wikiproject, though! - Mailer Diablo 10:02, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Moral Support SoWhy put it exactly. Best of luck in the future, bud :)  Shapiros10  contact me My work  11:49, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

Neutral

 * 1) Neutral.  Looking through the user's contributions, it looks like they're doing solid, useful work.  However, there are a few things that bother me, like the terse answers to the questions and the lack of edit summary usage, enough that I would not be comfortable supporting.  I would suggest to the candidate that at the very least that they should set edit summary usage as mandatory in their preferences, as low edit summary usage is a classic indicator of someone who's not quite ready for the tools.
