Forum:New admin (again)

Forums: Index > Watercooler > New admin (again)

With Prez and CL absent, there's only really me and Snakeboss. So, considering I'm in a different timezone than most of you (and vandals), we need a new admin. The main qualities needed in an admin are:

• familiarity with the technicalities of editing (see Help:Editing) and the policies of Pikipedia.
• ability to act without bias, on the behalf of the community as a whole.
• activity, now and in the past, so there's a reasonable chance you'll continue to be active.

and probably other stuff. This will work exactly as before: nominate yourself or another user (in which case they'll have to accept), and give a few reasons why you/they would make a good sysop.

I'll close nominations later, depending on how quickly they come in, and then voting will commence as before. GP

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. --Gamefreak75

I nominate GameFreak75. And just so you know, I have no intention of running- yet.Pikdude 07:23, 27 September 2010 (EDT)

I nominate myself. I check the recent changes most every day and monitor current discussions,as well as check out suspicious IP edits. I can help with articles in the and can be trusted with the additional powers of an admin. I am familiar with mediawiki editing as well as html and image editing. I try to see both sides in discussions and arguments, and I have recently become an admin on Pikcanon-NOT. Vote for me- Vol (Talk)

I nominate myself. Because I can. Yeah... Miles 17:53, 27 September 2010 (EDT)

• 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. IAMAHIPO_ocolor 18:07, 27 September 2010 (EDT)

Based on his performance in chat, let's not vote for Hippo. Please. Pikdude 18:10, 27 September 2010 (EDT)

Why? He still can manage administrative tools, can he not? Vol (Talk)
