Discussion

Oppose

1. Oppose You've made 21 edits, I have to oppose.--Giants27 ^T/C 16:29, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
2. Oppose I wouldn't bother completing the nomination, you've got far too little - well, actually, you've not got any experience. WP:NOTNOW. Esteffect (talk) 17:04, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
3. Oppose You were strongly advised not to do this and you don't seem to understand the role of an Administrator. Apparently you think that if you are an administrator you will have more rights to edit articles than you have now - which is incorrect. You will have the same rights that you have now so far as basic editing goes, and you can correct vandalism without being an administrator. I don't know why you went ahead after 3 editors advised against it. dougweller (talk) 17:15, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
4. Oppose Answers here and on user talk page indicate that user has no idea what adminship entails.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:21, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

   Also, user has no constructive edits to mainspace under this username.--SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:29, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
