The request for administratorship for Icemandeaf (talk · contribs · editcount · block · modify rights · logs · block log)

Nomination

I would like to nominate Icemandeaf for administrator rights on the wiki. He has been an active contributor to the wiki for several months, and has shown himself to be a very capable editor. He has made several edits to templates on the wiki, including creating a new template for use on Sim pages. He has also effectively used the rollback tool and issued warnings to offending users. I think that all this, and more, demonstrates that he is ready to be promoted to administrator here on the wiki. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 01:28, June 19, 2014 (UTC)

I would first like to say that I am very honored (and again floored) to be nominated for administrator rights. When I was first nominated for rollback rights, I was flabbergasted. At that time, I looked into what administrators do because it was mentioned that rollback rights was a step to administrator rights. I was honestly intimidated by the prospect of becoming an administrator. I still kind of am — worried I might do something wrong. But I have learned from the rollback rights that while it may have seemed like a daunting responsibility, it is possible for me to learn what I need to become a good administrator just like I have learned with the rollback rights. While the prospect scares me a little, I will accept this nomination because I know that the community won't give me administrator rights if they feel I am not yet ready.

Discussion

This discussion shall last for at least five days. Time remaining:


Moderate support - Icemandeaf has only been a rollback for less than two months, but in that time he has demonstrated good use from that privilege. I'm not giving outright support here, in-fact I'm not quite certain whether or not I'm giving away my support too soon. I still feel that Icemandeaf could benefit from these rights and I'm sure that he would make a good administrator. -- C.Syde (talk | contribs) 05:50, June 19, 2014 (UTC)

Support - As I am the nominee, I obviously support this nomination. In addition to the reasons I gave in the nominating statement, I wanted to expand upon the reasons for this nomination. Icemandeaf has shown himself to be a skilled wiki editor, and he has effectively used the rollback tool and other tools to improve the wiki. He also seems to be intelligent, level-headed, and trustworthy. Although he has only held rollback for a couple months, he has shown that he is capable of using it and understanding it, and so to will he grow into the administrator position; I would not have nominated him for this position if I was not confident in this. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 05:58, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
