 * 1) Oppose because his second ever mainspace edit, a proposed deletion of a well-referenced article, was summarily refused just eight minutes later. This shows that Abecedare did not know deletion policy, and could not be trusted to keep worthy articles away from deletion.  Lest you say "but that was his second ever mainspace edit, more than one year ago," let me point out that I got opposed for my second ever mainspace edit, more than a year before my RFA, and nobody complained about that!  I conclude that the candidate has done more damage to Wikipedia than all his articles could do to help it; and indeed, Wikipedia would be better off without his contributions.

 * Yes, that was an unjustified prod, but frankly since it was done in good faith at the time, I won't berate myself (or any other inexperienced editor I see now making the same mistake) too harshly. What does make me cringe though is the use of "vanity" in the prod. note - that was as inappropriate then, as it would be now. Abecedare (talk) 23:01, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Looking back at this long forgotten editing history, I am happy to see my related talk page conduct. Of course, I don't grudge you the oppose. Cheers. Abecedare (talk) 23:10, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm sure the closing 'crat will know to ignore an oppose that so obviously done to make a point rather than contribute constructively to the conversation on your suitability as an admin candidate. Beeblebrox (talk) 23:12, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't take it seriously. He just did the same thing on every other live RfA. -- Soap Talk/Contributions 23:15, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Sadly, this is just drive by trolling. Moving to the talkpage... WJBscribe (talk) 23:37, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
