Lonely Turret is an admin.... Wha.......... How...... He seems like a person that always complaining and swearing. Just as much as PikminGuy101.....[[User:Pikifan4|Pikifan4]] ([[User talk:Pikifan4|talk]]) 12:30, 8 February 2016 (EST)
==Nominations==
==Nominations==
I nominate myself. I am very familiar with the tools, being an administrator and bureaucrat over at the Kirby Wikia and an administrator at the Pikmin Fanon Wiki. I also am a patroller over at Mario Wiki. I have been here for over a year, and even though I may have been a bit rash at times, I believe I will make a good admin.

* I nominate myself, because I have been with this wiki for a long time, am relatively mature and calm, and have a fair knowledge of mediawiki. I think I am very articulate and cordial. {{User:IAMAHIPO_ocolor/sig}} 18:07, 27 September 2010 (EDT)

I nominate myself. I check the recent changes list for both Pikipedia and Pikcanon-NOT very frequently, I'm almost always on it. While on it I check every edit made since I've last seen the list, excluding trusted editors like Green, Vol, etc. I'm also the head admin on Pikcanon-NOT, and in addition I run our inter-wiki forums. I've been a member on Pikipedia for a year now, and admittedly haven't done a whole lot. However I've taken the time to learn Mediawiki code,  proper admin etiquette, and many other things from Green and Prez. And if it helps any I'm the student-body vice-president at my school, so I'm good with problem solving and leadership skills.

Yeah, you shouldn't not vote for someone just because of their activity in chat. It doesn't mean that their not actually a person that can be responsible. I've seen Hippo do good in the recent changes at the old Pikipedia, and he is a strong candidate for the new admin.{{User:Sir Pikmin/sig}}

It seems to me that this is going to be a tough vote - There are lots of good users on Pikipedia. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Sig}}
