The Sims Wiki:Requests for administratorship

The Sims Wiki is currently open to new requests for administrators. If you meet minimum requirements, consider applying. We are also looking for users who are interested in filling special positions - please apply if you are interested!

Minimum requirements
If you have proven yourself to be a valuable member of the community, and you think you're capable of doing the job, this is where to apply. Minimum requirements are:
 * Average or higher wiki editing knowledge.
 * This means you have to have contributed regularly to some wiki (not necessarily this one).


 * Having started to contribute on The Sims Wiki (edits in the content namespace are not taken too seriously).
 * Your first edit on The Sims Wiki should not be your application on this page.


 * Understandable, (almost 100%) correct English all the time.
 * If u talk liek dis, ur not rdy 2 bcome admin


 * Playing the game is nice, since you'll be editing and making decisions based on the game's content.
 * Be able to expand articles to make them more useful for the community.
 * You should not copy articles from Wikipedia and paste them here.


 * Rollback rights are a prerequisite for requesting adminship.

What you will do as an admin

 * Revert vandalism, warn and/or block vandals.
 * Move pages to correct page names, delete unnecessary redirects.
 * Have a strong voice when decisions have to be made.
 * Represent The Sims Wiki well in the Wikia and internet community.

What you may not do as an admin

 * Use your administrator privileges to take advantage of users or to control the wiki.
 * Ignore the needs and wants of wiki users.
 * Act as a poor representative of The Sims Wiki on other wikis, or participate in major cross-wiki drama.

More info and a list of current admins can be found at Administrators.

Positions available
Additionally, some special positions are available for administrators and members of the community. These are filled on the Requests for special positions page, though users requesting administratorship here may in their request ask for one or more of these positions. List of positions and their responsibilities is available on this page. Willingness to take on special duties may make you more likely to be selected.

 * I am currently a fanon administrator and an administator on The Sims Medieval Wiki.
 * I am used to the administrator tools, which I have used as a fanon administrator.
 * I am willing to help other users in whatever needs they require.
 * I am able to fix any errors that users may create, such as spelling, grammar etc.
 * I am active almost every day and can be found on the wiki and on IRC.
 * I have also applied to become the new IRC contact. (discussion)
 * I have done some admin related work in both the fanon namespace and the mainspace.
 * I do have an anti-vandalism record

I can admit that I may have made some mistakes when it came to warning and blocking users as well as one incident where I deleted a few pages based on pets and after being advised by the community and other administrators, I can see where I went wrong and I am sorry for making those mistakes. I would like to apply to become a "regular" admin so that I can carry out admin-related jobs in every namespace possible in order to help the wiki in any way I can and lift the burden from other community members and administrators. 18:51, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * , Strong Support. I have no doubt about your kindness, sense of humor, editing and admin skills, you're just a very effective worker as well. Thank you. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 19:02, March 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * , Strong Support. Make us proud, soldier. BobNewbie talk •  blog 19:13, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, since fanon admins already have the sysop flag, it'd just be a change in title. I suppose it does need bureaucratic approval all the same, and I don't have any problem with it. Dharden (talk) 21:42, March 26, 2011 (UTC)

User:Guilherme Guerreiro
I hope this request is legitimate...


 * I am a very active user
 * Appraiser of Quality rather than quantity.
 * Expanded many pages, sims, mainly.
 * Improved my grammar to be on here, from what I've heard it's much better now.
 * I've given some suggestions to resolve wiki problems and I like to help.
 * Added many heashots onto Sims wiki.
 * I think I do have an anti-vandalism record.
 * During my log in time I'm always seeing what other users do, in case of being necessary any action like reverting vandalism or joining a discussion.
 * I've made clean-ups to pages that need, for eample, this one made to | Tricou family article
 * Friendly and kind person, though can commit social mitakes, After all I'm still human.
 * Like to thank users for good actions.
 * Like to be here (and LOVE the Sims).
 * I'll try to read The Sims Wiki:Policy carefully to make sure I understand its meanings.

Also I wish to help users at editing The Sims articles, though I think my knowledge is still narrow I can easily improve it with some effort and hard work, I'll be also even more active when it comes to vandalism, I'll try to be prudent and careful when issuing warnings and blocks, and always delicated when approaching to The Sims Wiki community new users, I'll consider people's feelings and wishes and I'll respect them. I'll try to adapt myself to a non-agressive behaviour.
 * I hope this request is good enough :). Thank you. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 18:49, March 26, 2011 (UTC)

I give you my full support. What else is there to give? This is one of our best users. 100% awesome, and this will make the Wiki she's been working so hard to improve even better. -- BobNewbie talk • blog 18:55, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - you're one of the most active editors on the wiki and I have very little doubt that you would abuse sysop rights. Good luck! 19:07, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Full Support, because you should have been an admin much earlier. There is nothing else to say, you are one of the best things this wiki has now! |_Andronikos Leventis Talk 14:08, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Full Support great editor -- CookieMonster888 talk 19:52, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * - Neutral, but leaning towards weak support. Ѧüя◎ґ 22:47, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Full Support - You're an excellent editor, and have made good progress here. So, I'm supporting you fully to become an administrator. &mdash; Walker guy94  Talk  09:37, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

 * I have admin rights on a large number of wikis. I know the buttons like the back of my hand.
 * I always try to be nice and welcoming to users on the wiki. I know how valuable these people are, and what they can do.
 * I have been working hard on my grammar and spelling, and I think that it is quite a bit better then it was when I first arrived. My grammar and spelling is more or less 100% understandable, even when I say things wrong.
 * I have a large anti-vandalism record across Wikia, and a decent, if not good one, here.
 * Its the quality, not the quantity, that I appreciate, and I try to live by this.
 * I try to be friendly, humorous and kind. I talk to users about topics ranging from zombies to who knows what, but at the same time I try to not use this place as a social networking site.
 * I do have, what I would call above average wiki editing knowledge.
 * I do have rollback, and I believe I have used this well.
 * I write for The Sims Wiki's newsletter and help manage its Facebook page.
 * Okay, now I saved this for last. I think I pretty much mess up a lot of times, with my "leave; back; leave" tendencies. Now, I know basically nothing I say may change your mind if you're about to oppose this. I wouldn't blame you. If it was me, I would oppose too. So, why am I even applying? Why? Because I want to try to tell you that this will be different. I want to tell you that I love Wikia, that I love the wiki that allowed me to start being a Wikian. I am so honored to call myself a Wikian. To be able to apply here to help my home Wiki grow even more will be, quite simply, amazing. Amazing. I say again, I have messed up, but I will promise you this: That if I do get sysop rights, I will, absolutely will, stay on this wiki for as long as I possibly can. I will try my best to edit everyday, and I will try to use each edit to make this wiki better, bit by bit. If you're still going to oppose, thank you for taking time to read this. If you're going to support me, and I mean it with everything I got, I promise, no, I vow to do my best this time, for as long as I possibly can. -- BobNewbie talk • blog 20:43, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Very Strong Support - You're one of the Sims Wiki's leaders for sure!! i think it's easy to see that I completely adore your work and crietivity!!! Keep working on your projects because I know you'll make a gorgeous job. Thank you so much. --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 20:56, March 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Extremely Full Support, the awnser has to be yes! You have inspired most people here! You are just a wiki idol! |_Andronikos Leventis Talk 14:23, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * - Neutral I do support you, but based on your recent IRC behavior, I'm not entirely sure now. Ѧüя◎ґ 22:47, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Neutral, leaning towards support. On wiki, you have done a lot of great work which deserves to be acknowledged but sadly as Auror pointed out, it seems to be your IRC behaviour that is pulling you down which is a shame because you have done a lot for the wiki. However, I may rethink this decision... 18:11, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks guys! You won't regret this! I already made my own election posters and everything :p . Nah, just kidding. . -- BobNewbie talk • blog 17:05, March 27, 2011 (UTC)

 * Regularly contribute to the wiki (where I can).
 * Good knowledge of wiki markup.
 * I am a rollback (if I wasn't why would I be applying?)
 * Good number of edits (over 2500)
 * Once I find something out about Sims (like news or something of the sort), I try to make sure it is on the wiki.
 * English is my native language, so, no problem there.

I don't have as many qualifications as the other, but I decided to give it a shot anyways.--Eduardog3000 Ed G 18:48, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * - Neutral - I don't really know... --Guilherme Guerreiro (talk here) 18:56, March 27, 2011 (UTC)


 * For now, I'm gonna stay Neutral. I decided not to post the template because that'll make you think its a no from me. Could you do me a favor and link to any other wiki's you are/were active on? Thanks dude! -- BobNewbie talk • blog 18:59, March 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Gave some thought about it. Sorry dude, but Oppose. This, again, can change. -- BobNewbie talk • blog 21:07, March 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Neutral, leaning towards a weak support. At the moment, I'm not really sure but I will think about this. You have done some good work for this wiki and I thank you for that. As Bob requested, if you have been active on another wiki and you've had administrator experience before, please link those. Cheers! 16:35, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
