The Sims Wiki:Requests for administratorship/Archive 4

DanPin
Hello there, I am DanPin and I am a long time user of the wiki. I think I am ready to take this leap and apply, because if I were asked to do this a few months back, I wouldn't do it. However, I believe I can pull it off right now.

I would like to apply to the Community Development and Fanon Administration administrative projects, since these are the areas I am most familiar with. I, like any other user, have my qualities and my flaws, which I will refer to right away:

My qualities:
 * I have a good knowledge of English;
 * I am the Ombudsman in here - which means I can settle disputes between users;
 * Alongside MTDM, I run the Newsletter;
 * I started editing on July 30th, 2010 (i.e. for over a year and a half);
 * When I see vandalism in pages, I try to undo those edits;
 * I usually play all three main games (TS1, TS2 and TS3) for PC;
 * I have a bit of experience with templates and a lot of experience with Fanon articles.

My flaws:
 * I sometimes not edit that much (which is reflected on my edit count);
 * I can get grounded off-wiki sometimes, but if that happens I try my best to leave a notice.

So, since I think that all has been said, I'll now leave this request for you. 20:22, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - You're definitely one of the best editors and an active and known member of the community. If anyone deserves adminship, it's you. :) —Random Ranaun (Talk to me! ) 20:34, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - I feel you are capable for it. Also, it shows you are humble when you indicate your flaws on the request too, I definitely like that. (: -- RoseGui [[File:Thanks rose.png]] ( talk here ) 20:36, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - Your heart is in the right place but I'm really not sure. I'm not doubting your abilities when it comes to a situation where you have to use your admin tools but something tells me you may want administrator flags a little bit too much, based on an IRC quit message I distinctly remember saying that "when RfA opens on TSW, I'll apply" which you used for quite some time as well as your persistence in wanting RfA to be opened so you could apply (again an IRC thing). However, afaik you haven't been involved in any major conflict with any user on-wiki or IRC, which is a very good thing. Sorry if I sound too harsh but I felt I needed to get this off my chest. Otherwise, good luck with the request! I don't know what I was going through there but I've given this some more thought and I think you'll do well as an admin. You're a very friendly person who hasn't gotten involved in any drama (as I stated earlier) and you know what, I'd go as far as calling myself stupid for placing that neutral vote earlier. Maybe I did overreact on "wanting it too much" - I think anyone who'd apply would want it. Forget my negativity earlier, I have faith in you. 20:44, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - You make good edits, you're active, and you use English very fluently (I thought you were a native speaker until you told me you were from Portugal - I was completely surprised). As for stating that he wanted to apply, I don't see a problem with having a little bit of ambition, as long as it's not over-done. So, I'm in favor of this request. --  LostInRiverview talk · blog 21:45, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

I don't have any issues with this, and consensus is obviously in support. I'm going to be approving this request.

Starmoonie
The vote on this promotion will end on 19:33, May 12, 2012.

closed early per IRC discussion'

I would like to nominate Starmoonie for administratorship. She has been here since February and is evidently committed to ensuring that we are a good reference for information. She also has rollback, is currently one of our most active users and hasn't engaged in any drama whatsoever and I think she would do a good job as an administrator. 10:19, May 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * I accept. If I am accepted I would also like to request the following projects to be assigned to me: Image and File Maintenance and Fanon Administration, thank you. ---Starmoonie 19:33, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - per nom. 19:47, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - Ѧüя◎ґ 19:59, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - You totally suit the job. -- RoseGui [[File:Thanks rose.png]] ( talk here ) 21:03, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - What the others said. 21:10, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support -
 * Support - Definitely! --  LostInRiverview talk · blog 22:56, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - sure! Wiryawan310 02:59, May 6, 2012 (UTC)

Consensus here is overwhelmingly in support, and I've added a rule regarding cases like this and shortening the time for the vote. Granted

The vote on this promotion will end on 01:05, June 8, 2012.

This request has been closed early due to obvious consensus.

Hi! I've been helping a lot of this wiki and I believe i'm ready to become an administrator.

I would like to apply for Fanon Administration and Layout and Navigation. I want to apply for them, since I find them suitable for me.

I haven't created any havoc on the wiki and I help whenever I can. I have rollback rights, which I know I need to become an administrator. I believe that I can help make this wiki safe from any non-constructive users.

I'm on the wiki a lot. So I'm usually always on to help keep this wiki safe.

Good Things That I Do...-

1.Undo any bad edits

2.I use perfect English as I'm American

3.I stay positive on everything wiki related

Bad Things That I Do...-

1.NOTHING!

( That's all I have to say, so please consider. ) SCHNETZKA  ( talk ) 01:05, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I can see your heart's in the right place with this, but I'm not really sure myself... I think you're a little inexperienced atm, and you're not exactly what I'd call active, really. Sorry if I'm being harsh, but keep it up and I'll consider supporting in the future.
 * Oppose - I'm slightly pessimistic about this request as while you are indeed committed to improving the wiki, your reasoning seems a little bit...narrow (for the lack of a better term). The way you put across that you don't do anything negative seems to me that your taking this a little bit too lightly. That's all I have to say in addition to the points WH brought up. Keep working on improving the wiki and maybe you'll have my support next time around. Sorry. 01:32, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I'm sorry, like Wogan and Georgie has said as well. I think you should keep a bit more active and edit so more. Useful information is needed and if you have the newest expansions of the Sim games or other info this wiki need than go ahead and add them! Otherwise your contributions here and probably to other Wikis are little. Keep up doing a good job and in the future you can reapply again. ---Starmoonie (Talk Here) 03:39, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I can't see a really good reason for your... nomination. It's true you didn't make anything bad, but your good points don't really seem enough to me. I also haven't seen your experience in editing, and you might be not familiar with editing in source mode? In short, I can't really say much other than what Wogan and GG have said. I'm sorry..  Nikel  Talk  05:19, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I think you need more edit on this wiki. more edit mean more active and learning more, so you will greatly improve this wiki. Wiryawan310 13:55, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Seeing as the consensus is already obvious, I'm closing this nomination. Schnetzka will not be given administrator rights at this time. 15:23, June 1, 2012 (UTC)

Bakerychaz
I am Bakerychaz. I think I deserve admin rights because I am a very active user, I make great edits, I have created fanon pages, and I improve articles any way I can. I would like to apply for the Layout and Navigation and the Fanon Administration projects. Thank you for reading, Bakerychaz 08:29, June 24, 2012 (UTC).
 * Oppose, mainly due to the reasoning of not yet. You were just given rollback rights and I think you could do with a bit more experience first. When you have ~1500 edits and have been here for a bit longer I'd support, so keep working hard and I'd be more than happy to support in future.
 * You just received rollback rights, I'd say give it some time. -  LiR speak ~ read 11:38, June 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - You've made a good start and it's clear that you intend to help but as stated above, you've only just been granted rollback rights. Don't feel discouraged by the opposition on this RfA - just keep doing what you're already doing, try again in a little while and hopefully I'll be there to support. 13:38, June 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose, but only on the grounds of "not yet". Keep doing what you're doing, ask again in a few months, and I would support. Dharden (talk) 17:47, June 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Request declined, mainly on the grounds of not yet. Make some more edits, and you'll likely have a successful request further down the track.

Bakerychaz
Hello, my username is Bakerychaz. I would like to apply for the Fanon Administration and Community Development admin projects. I have learnt a lot since I joined The Sims Wiki in April. Here are some reasons I would be a good administrator:


 * I have over 1850 edits;
 * I have rollback;
 * I speak perfect English;
 * I am very knowlegeable about The Sims series and The Sims Wiki;
 * I think I am a well-trusted member of The Sims Wiki's community;
 * I understand The Sims Wiki's policies and guidelines, and I would never violate them;
 * I help and improve The Sims Wiki in any way I can;
 * I would NEVER abuse admin rights.

Please consider me, as I would love to become an admin and I am ready for it. Thank you,  Bakerychaz  ( talk page ·  blog ) 05:31, July 24, 2012 (UTC).
 * Support - You are really active, and you seem to be ready to step on the next level. You also seem to be accustomed to the workarounds of this wiki as well. Just two things I've been considering about this. IIRC, your only access is via IPad. Are you convenient enough editing from IPad? That's not a big deal anyway. Also, having a goo knowledge about editing in source mode will help.  Nikel  Talk  –  Vote  –  Guess!  06:21, July 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - You've progressed since your last RfA in addition to being highly active and you seem to know what you're doing. Plus we only have a couple of admins in your timezone so having another one could be beneficial. 11:21, July 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support, basically your doing a great job after the last time you applied. You are also one of a few people in a timezone that is great for watching out for this wikia for vandals. (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻﻿) ǝıuooɯɹɐʇs VOTE!  13:57, July 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support, I think you're ready for it now. --  LiR speak ~ read 15:30, July 24, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - per the walruses above.
 * Consensus is obviously in unanimous support and there's no reason to keep this open. Approved. 23:08, July 24, 2012 (UTC)

AsherÉire
My name is AsherÉire and I am a fairly active user here on the Wiki. I've been here since February and I've managed to get 1,400 edits. Although that may not seem like a large number, I tend to add a lot of information on pages at one time. I play The Sims frequently, so my information I provide is always accurate and thoroughly researched. I speak perfect English as it is my native language. I would never use admin rights to bully other users.

In short, I am very friendly, dedicated and willing to help anyone out. The only time I'm not here is due to school, but I'm always here at the weekends. I would also like to apply for the Fanon Administration and Community Development projects. Thank you for your time and consideration. AsherÉire.


 * Support - You seem to be a good user who is friendly and you have great edits. 23:01, September 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - She is very friendly and we've suggesting her to try this for ages! She has done a lot of edits to the mainspace wiki and I truly think she deserves this. :)  Colin the Panda -  Meow  23:07, September 15, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support k
 * Support - She seems to know what she's doing and I can't see any compelling reason to say no. I guess I can let go of being the only administrator based in the UK. ;) 09:40, September 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * friendly and great writer. Salammbo
 * Consensus is unanimously in support and the vetting process has, as per usual, dried up. AsherÉire will shortly receive administrator rights. 22:25, September 17, 2012 (UTC)
