Oppose

1. Not yet. not even 300 edits, answers to questions aren't very good, and over half of the edits are to userspace. Pilif12p :  Yo  14:43, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
2. Oppose per WP:NOTNOW. Your heart appears to be in the right place, but you need a lot more time and experience before you can be seriously considered for adminship. Spend more time and effort familiarizing yourself with the various aspects of Wikipedia, and consider another RfA after several months and a few thousand more edits.

3. Oppose: Sorry, but it is just too early. You have less than 50 contributions in article namespace. --Leyo 14:55, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
4. Oppose way, way too early. I like the candidate's enthusiasm for the project; however 240 edits, 41 to articlespace simply isn't enough time invested in the project--Hokeman (talk) 15:03, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Neutral

1. Neutral - I'm happy that you're enthusiastic about the project, but you might want to read WP:NOTNOW. I don't think you have enough experience, particularly in admin-related areas. Get involved with AfD, CSD, RfA, AIV, etc and come back in a year with many thousands of edits under your belt and you might be ready for the tools. Regards, P. D. Cook ^{Talk to me!} 14:42, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
2. Comment - Not opposing, because I'd prefer to encourage you. I can't support you, because you don't have enough experience to be seeking adminship right now. Your contributions are not enough to demonstrate that you have the knowledge and experience required. I'd also reiterate the recommendation to read WP:NOTNOW, and a great idea would be to look through some previous unsuccessful and successful RFAs to understand the high levels of contribution and experience editors expect to see in an Admin candidate. I do encourage you to carry on and increase your involvement, and try again when you have those levels of experience. Not Capitalising Every Word In A Sentence may be something to consider, too - in all seriousness, this is a project to build an encyclopedia, which follows a manual of style. Whilst it is certainly not necessary to post everything in project space and talk space according to the MOS, it is likely to raise a few eyebrows and cause a little concern if something like an RFA is so oddly formatted.  Begoon^talk 14:53, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
