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. | I nominate myself.
