K50 Dude[edit]

FINAL (5/5/1); Ended to end 01:13, 8 December 2008 (UTC) Closed per WP:NOTNOW by User:Balloonman

K50 Dude (talk · contribs) – I am a user that has been in Wikipedia for about 4 months, and feel lots of experience and character in myself. I can take these administrative jobs very seriously. K50 DUDETALK TO ME!LOOK AT ME!


Questions for the candidate[edit]

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?
A: I already take part in Speedy Deletion topics. I monitor new pages to make sure they are constructive; if not, I nominate them for Speedy Deletion. I aim to also do tasks related to edit blocking, since I know from experience that vandals "hurt" Wikipedia
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: I do lots of cleanup and minor edits. I work a lot with airports, and make things more clear for viewers to read. EXAMPLE: If there is an airport that has bullet points as a destination, I turn it into a Wikitable, displaying destinations per airline per concorse. I work with many transportation articles to make sure they are good.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: I have been in edit conflicts, but I really don't mind. Many users are just trying to do the same things, they are just trying to do them at different times. I deal with my Wikipedia stress by taking a break from them and doing something else on Wikipedia instead.

General comments[edit]

Please keep discussion constructive and civil. If you are unfamiliar with the nominee, please thoroughly review Special:Contributions/K50 Dude before commenting.

Discussion[edit]

  • I suggest withdrawal. You are on the right track, but not ready for adminship. Have you requested rollback? Malinaccier (talk) 01:01, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Support[edit]
  1. Moral support - you're obviously here with good intentions, but I have a strong feeling this will not pass. ayematthew ✡ 00:11, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Moral Support - Please continue to edit Wikipedia and build up your experience in administrative areas, as well as building content, and reapply in a few months or so if you so feel the need. Remember, adminship is no big deal and just because this RfA will fail does not mean that future ones will. Kind regards. - NuclearWarfare contact meMy work 00:12, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Moral Support - Editor still needs more experience about Wikipedia before earning the community's trust. I beleive an apprenticeship is in order.--Lenticel (talk) 00:39, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Moral Support due to no memorable negative interactions (assuming good faith) and as candidate has never been blocked. Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 00:57, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Avoid the pile-on support Don't be disheartened, contribute more and rerequest later on in your "career" here :) DavidWS (contribs) 01:00, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose[edit]
  1. Oppose per lack of experience. 4 months and 170-odd edits are not enough, I'm afraid.Ironholds (talk) 00:09, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  2. Sorry, but this isn't going to pass. It's way premature. Your edits are good so far, but being an admin takes a huge deal of preparation. —Ceran»^« 00:20, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Oppose. While I appreciate that you've removed incorrect speedy deletion tags, I cannot support you since you incorrectly tagged an article for speedy deletion very recently yet plan to help in that area. --Amalthea 00:26, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  4. Oppose- way too soon. Thanks for volunteering to help though, and best of luck if you try again in the future. Reyk YO! 00:33, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  5. Oppose You are on the right track and I support your desire to contribute to Wikipedia.It is only WP:NOTNOW.Please try again later sorry and good luck.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 00:40, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral[edit]
  1. Neutral leaning oppose. User has great intentions, and 4 months wouldn't normally faze me, but under 250 edits strikes me as disturbing. --Dylan620 Contribs Sign! 00:29, 8 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
