Position: Ombudsman

Hi everyone! I'd really like to apply for the position of Ombudsman. I'm very much a pacifist, and I can't stand violence. I know the wiki is undergoing a lot of change, and change is not always agreed with. This may lead to disputes, and having an Ombudsman available might be helpful. I think I am qualified for this position, as I'm preety sure that I maintain a pretty good working relationship with many users here, and if my request is granted, I'll do everything in my power to keep the peace.

I constantly am on the wiki, looking all over and through the Recent Wiki Activity for signs of profanity and abuse. If I'm not ready, I'd completely understand. But if so, I'd appreciate it very much.  PGR7 (parler - entendre) 03:28, December 23, 2012 (UTC)

As I know I cannot vote but I would like to say PGR7 would make a great ombudsman unlike me, so if I was a B'crat I would Strongly Support him. DevlyHallows (talk) 18:17, January 14, 2013 (UTC)
Dev, you're allowed to vote. Voting isn't limited to bureaucrats only and the minimum requirements to be able to vote state you only need 1 edit to do so and while I find that to be too light of a requirement imo, you're definitely well past it. :)
As far as the request is concerned, I'm going to abstain from voting purely because I made a thread proposed to retire Special positions, which could cause a potential conflict of interest if I gave a support/neutral/oppose vote at all. Lost Labyrinth   (c)(b) 18:48, January 14, 2013 (UTC)
Same from me... If I weren't in support of scrapping the position I'd support him getting it. -- LostInRiverview talk ~ blog 23:06, January 14, 2013 (UTC)
Whilst LiR and GG have abstained from voting, I am fully supporting your request. You truly strive for the ombudsman position and I believe your demeanor (calm and genuine) fits the shoe for it. You have my vote! Ѧüя◎ґ (talk)

Position: Community Director

I would like to apply to take on the role of Community Director. It is indeed unfortunate that Bleeh resigned from her role as Community Director and I think it's important that someone with experience takes over the role.

I'm frequently in the IRC channel, I get on well with most users here, I bring up suggestions to improve the wiki and I feel that I can efficiently take on this position. I won't be offended by any opposition and I'll appreciate any constructive feedback. And of course, another bureaucrat would be approving/denying this request so that I don't look like some sort of dictator. :P Lost Labyrinth   (c)(b) 10:53, February 5, 2012 (UTC)

 
Strong Support - You're one of the most active administrators and you are ready for it. RoseGui  (talk here) 21:21, February 5, 2012 (UTC)
 
Support - I believe he could take over the position and be responsible for it. Nikel Talk 08:58, February 7, 2012 (UTC)
 
Support - He's a great admin who helps a lot in the wikia. Sure, I would like him to become the community director. Good luck! Not sure if I can vote for him.

Position: Ombudsman

Hello, My name is Devdevdev and I would like to sign for the Ombudsman Position. I know many user's on This wiki and even seen some of them. I like Fairness and any cheating/Winding up people is not allowed in Devdevdev World, Contrary to being in the free world Sadly. 🌹Deathbee1000 19:04, December 7, 2012 (UTC)

 
Neutral - I've never really seen much reason as into how Dev would take on a role like this and why he would need it but I doubt he'd act maliciously should he be given this position, so I'm in the middle with this. Lost Labyrinth   (c)(b) 19:11, December 7, 2012 (UTC)
I get what you mean there. 🌹Deathbee1000 19:17, December 7, 2012 (UTC)
 
Oppose - Nothing personal, but I don't think you're ready for this position. ђ talk 21:23, December 7, 2012 (UTC)
Given that this is literally a ghost town and we're unlikely to receive any further input, I'm going to have to decline this request for now. Lost Labyrinth   (c)(b) 21:11, December 9, 2012 (UTC)
