:In conclusion, I think Hana is not yet ready to earn these rights, though I will likely support her in a future nomination. {{PGRSig}} 01:20, May 10, 2013 (UTC)
::Okay I have been steering clear of this discussion like a minefield but I feel that I'm likely the best person to make an educated and neutral decision on this since I haven't heard mch from either side other than what has been written here, so here goes.
::Firstly, I'm going to say this - Hana is definitely a good editor. But does being a good editor mean one deserves the tools? In my opinion no, I'd much rather have the tools operated by a long term trusted user with a history of stability. I'm going to quote something Pidge said in the post above: ''Hana has had a history of being hot-headed when it comes to reverting vandalism, and she has admitted to this herself.'' While reverting vandalism is indeed a desirable trait in an editor, wiki admins are expected to remain calm, especially in the face of trolls (don't feed the trolls). I understand she's only human but I would expect a certain standard from a wiki admin.
::Second I have the concept of "deserved v. a tool given". I'll ake this clear as crystal, '''rights are given to trusted users, they aren't an award'''. Sure, I can see the mistake some people may make but its like saying "Good job on your math test Billy you're the principal now". It doesn't work like that.
::Thirdly, and I'm getting to the end now, is we need to define consensus. Generally consensus is around two-thirds support, but also strength of argument is an important factor as well. The votes are currently 8 support, 7 oppose and 2 neutral. For this I'm going to ignore neutral votes. We have 53% support here. While this is indeed over half, its not really consensus. One thing I have also noticed is that the majority of the support votes generally have weaker arguments for them, generally "she deserves it". While not everyone said this it is a general trend. The oppose votes, meanwhile, are much more well thought out and have stronger arguments.
:With all this in mind, there is more reasons against Hana recieving adminship than there is for. Therefore, I'm going to be '''declining''' this request. I'm also going to be closing this discussion as I can see it escalating into a petty squabble that will get nowhere. Thank you everyone for voting. {{WHsig|06:13, May 10, 2013 (UTC)}}
