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)

Support - I feel two months is more than enough experience to become an administrator, especially in Icemandeaf's case. He has shown clearly that he knows how to use the rollback tool. He also weighs in on important discussions, and has even weighed in on a few administrative discussions, which shows he likes to get his opinion heard on discussions. I fully support his nomination. Good luck Icemandeaf! Beds (talk - blog) 09:12, June 19, 2014 (UTC)
