Wikipeedio
Final (0/8/0) ended 22:23, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

– When I discovered Wikipedia, I thought it was really cool. I kept coming back and editing articles. I now want to become an administrator and help keep Wikipedia a great encyclopedia to use by removing or editing untolerable content such as plagarism, offensive language, and false statements. I also plan to add more articles, and add on to existing ones. Wikipeedio 20:47, 20 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here: I have accepted the nomination Wikipeedio 21:08, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Support

Oppose
 * 1) Oppose, far too soon with only 20 edits / 10 days involvement.  Admin candidates need to have demonstrated familiarity with large portions of WP.  Also, please avoid comments like stop being gay in edit summaries, that fails WP:NPA just as surely as the content of an edit proper. &mdash; Lomn Talk 21:14, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, one other note: Wikipedia is not censored. That's why your attempts to remove "inappropriate content" are being reverted. &mdash; Lomn Talk 21:15, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 1) Oppose "Stop being gay" stands out among your decidely low volume of contributions. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 21:18, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 2) Strong Oppose I really advise you to rescind your nomination Wikipeedio, as your extremely low edit count and inappropriate edit summaries are going to attract a plethora of oppose votes. That would not be in your best interest. joturner 21:20, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 3) Oppose. Of course not. &Euml;vilphoenix Burn! 21:21, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 4) Oppose, sorry Wikipeedio, but you aren't quite ready yet. Perhaps you put up another RFA when you have more experience.  Wh e  re  (talk) 21:23, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 5) Oppose. User doesn't appear to understand Wikipedia policies as WP isn't censored. The edit in question.  Also, this user has far too little experience.  I strongly suggest you withdraw your nomination. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 21:24, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 6) Oppose per. &Euml;vilphoenix. feydey 21:53, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 7) Strong Oppose per Evilphoenix. I recommend immediate withdrawal. Come back later after 2-3+ active months and at least 2500+ edits. ¡Dustimagic!  ( T / C ) 22:18, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia in this capacity. Please take the time to answer 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. I would anticipate helping with keeping Wikipedia clean of inappropriate content, as well as plagarism and false statements.


 * 2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * A. Most of my contributions have been taking out inappropriate content; however, most of the time when I censor or remove such content it is placed right back in by another member.


 * 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. In the past, I have been in editing conflicts over offensive content, and a few over false or unproved facts. My most memorable one is perhaps my experience with the Alan Shepard article. I continually censored a word, while another user kept placing it back in. I eventually gave up, but plan to go further with keeping the word out of the article. If assigned as an admin I will do what is needed to do that.
 * In the future I plan to take appropriate steps in situations like these. If I find something that may have been made up, I will use the appropriate resources to find whether it was made up or not. If I find inappropriate content, I will give warnings, and If it continues, I will ask other administrators what kind of ban is appropriate, or if the offense commited is bad enough, I will take the appropriate ban action myself, and edit out the content that was inappropriate.
