I, former administrator [[User:Auror Andrachome|Asorailahd]], nominate [[user:C.Syde65|C.Syde65]] for adminship. C.Syde65's last request was denied in June 2014. Since then, I've felt he has progressed considerably and his wiki skills have thrived. C.Syde has consistently noted his faults and is quickly able to rebound from these situations. He's incredibly dedicated to wiki and has become engrossed into the technical side of website as well. C.Syde is gregarious, charismatic, and helpful member of the community. C.Syde is, of my opinion, completely qualified for this position. [[User:Auror Andrachome|Ѧüя◎ґ]] ([[User talk:Auror Andrachome|talk]]) 16:30, February 1, 2015 (UTC)

::Thanks Auror for nominating me. I’m happy to '''accept''' this nomination, because I have worked hard to address the concerns that were raised by users in response to my first RfA. I feel I have significantly improved my editing skills since then, and an examination of my recent editing history will support this.
 
::A key reason for my improved editing is that I now take the time to think my edits through carefully rather than racing to post edits. I now use the 'preview' and 'show changes' buttons before publishing, and also bear in mind the need to keep a level head when editing to avoid editing when hyped up. I use these techniques to try and ensure that I make all the changes needed in the first edit, which avoids having to alter my edits and then republish. This also helps me avoid the creation of edit conflicts, especially in community discussion.
 
::I am learning which areas of the wiki I am best suited to contribute to. After a minor incident that happened in chat, less than a month ago, I feel that the best practise for me is to refrain from trying to answer technical questions raised by inexperienced users in chat. This is because to date I have not been particularly good at answering technical questions in chat as I have trouble ensuring I take the time needed to fully comprehend what has been asked, and therefore do not always give an adequate answer. I managed to settle the minor incident that occurred in chat by apologizing to the inexperienced user via private message, and fortunately the inexperienced user did not seem perturbed by any misunderstanding I may have caused.
 
::I have recently learned from a minor incident where I gave a level 1 warning to a good faith editor. I replaced the warning with a friendly reminder and will be careful not repeat this mistake.
 
::I feel confident with blocking vandals that have already been issued a minimum of three warnings, and have not shown any signs of improvement. In the case where I suspect potential sock-puppetry I will not make accusations without solid evidence to confirm this is the case. As a new administrator I recognise I have limited experience in this area and would discuss my concerns with an experienced administrator rather than taking action on my own.
 
::If I notice a page that has been nominated for deletion I will check for any articles that link to the page before deleting it. I will make room for community consensus before deleting a page if there is content on the page that was made in good faith.
 
::While I have very little experience inside the media-wiki namespace (particularly with respect to JS and CSS), I doubt that I’ll need to make any edits there, at least not significant ones, so I will ensure I don’t mess up how the wiki functions.
 
::I feel that the above are good reasons for accepting my RfA and am happy to respond to any queries or feedback given to my application.
 
::-- '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 06:10, February 3, 2015 (UTC)
:::No issues with this nomination so I'm opening it up. On that note, let's begin! {{WHsig|06:24, February 3, 2015 (UTC)}}
