The Sims Wiki:Requests for administratorship/Archive 4

DanPin
Hello there, I am DanPin and I am a long time user of the wiki. I think I am ready to take this leap and apply, because if I were asked to do this a few months back, I wouldn't do it. However, I believe I can pull it off right now.

I would like to apply to the Community Development and Fanon Administration administrative projects, since these are the areas I am most familiar with. I, like any other user, have my qualities and my flaws, which I will refer to right away:

My qualities:
 * I have a good knowledge of English;
 * I am the Ombudsman in here - which means I can settle disputes between users;
 * Alongside MTDM, I run the Newsletter;
 * I started editing on July 30th, 2010 (i.e. for over a year and a half);
 * When I see vandalism in pages, I try to undo those edits;
 * I usually play all three main games (TS1, TS2 and TS3) for PC;
 * I have a bit of experience with templates and a lot of experience with Fanon articles.

My flaws:
 * I sometimes not edit that much (which is reflected on my edit count);
 * I can get grounded off-wiki sometimes, but if that happens I try my best to leave a notice.

So, since I think that all has been said, I'll now leave this request for you. 20:22, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - You're definitely one of the best editors and an active and known member of the community. If anyone deserves adminship, it's you. :) —Random Ranaun (Talk to me! ) 20:34, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Strong Support - I feel you are capable for it. Also, it shows you are humble when you indicate your flaws on the request too, I definitely like that. (: -- RoseGui [[File:Thanks rose.png]] ( talk here ) 20:36, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - Your heart is in the right place but I'm really not sure. I'm not doubting your abilities when it comes to a situation where you have to use your admin tools but something tells me you may want administrator flags a little bit too much, based on an IRC quit message I distinctly remember saying that "when RfA opens on TSW, I'll apply" which you used for quite some time as well as your persistence in wanting RfA to be opened so you could apply (again an IRC thing). However, afaik you haven't been involved in any major conflict with any user on-wiki or IRC, which is a very good thing. Sorry if I sound too harsh but I felt I needed to get this off my chest. Otherwise, good luck with the request! I don't know what I was going through there but I've given this some more thought and I think you'll do well as an admin. You're a very friendly person who hasn't gotten involved in any drama (as I stated earlier) and you know what, I'd go as far as calling myself stupid for placing that neutral vote earlier. Maybe I did overreact on "wanting it too much" - I think anyone who'd apply would want it. Forget my negativity earlier, I have faith in you. 20:44, March 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - You make good edits, you're active, and you use English very fluently (I thought you were a native speaker until you told me you were from Portugal - I was completely surprised). As for stating that he wanted to apply, I don't see a problem with having a little bit of ambition, as long as it's not over-done. So, I'm in favor of this request. --  LostInRiverview talk · blog 21:45, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

I don't have any issues with this, and consensus is obviously in support. I'm going to be approving this request.

closed early per IRC discussion'

I would like to nominate Starmoonie for administratorship. She has been here since February and is evidently committed to ensuring that we are a good reference for information. She also has rollback, is currently one of our most active users and hasn't engaged in any drama whatsoever and I think she would do a good job as an administrator. 10:19, May 5, 2012 (UTC)


 * I accept. If I am accepted I would also like to request the following projects to be assigned to me: Image and File Maintenance and Fanon Administration, thank you. ---Starmoonie 19:33, May 5, 2012 (UTC)
 * Support - per nom. 19:47, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

 * Support - sure! Wiryawan310 02:59, May 6, 2012 (UTC)

Consensus here is overwhelmingly in support, and I've added a rule regarding cases like this and shortening the time for the vote. Granted

This request has been closed early due to obvious consensus.

Hi! I've been helping a lot of this wiki and I believe i'm ready to become an administrator.

I would like to apply for Fanon Administration and Layout and Navigation. I want to apply for them, since I find them suitable for me.

I haven't created any havoc on the wiki and I help whenever I can. I have rollback rights, which I know I need to become an administrator. I believe that I can help make this wiki safe from any non-constructive users.

I'm on the wiki a lot. So I'm usually always on to help keep this wiki safe.

Good Things That I Do...-

1.Undo any bad edits

2.I use perfect English as I'm American

3.I stay positive on everything wiki related

Bad Things That I Do...-

1.NOTHING!

 * Oppose - I can see your heart's in the right place with this, but I'm not really sure myself... I think you're a little inexperienced atm, and you're not exactly what I'd call active, really. Sorry if I'm being harsh, but keep it up and I'll consider supporting in the future.
 * Oppose - I'm slightly pessimistic about this request as while you are indeed committed to improving the wiki, your reasoning seems a little bit...narrow (for the lack of a better term). The way you put across that you don't do anything negative seems to me that your taking this a little bit too lightly. That's all I have to say in addition to the points WH brought up. Keep working on improving the wiki and maybe you'll have my support next time around. Sorry. 01:32, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I'm sorry, like Wogan and Georgie has said as well. I think you should keep a bit more active and edit so more. Useful information is needed and if you have the newest expansions of the Sim games or other info this wiki need than go ahead and add them! Otherwise your contributions here and probably to other Wikis are little. Keep up doing a good job and in the future you can reapply again. ---Starmoonie (Talk Here) 03:39, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I can't see a really good reason for your... nomination. It's true you didn't make anything bad, but your good points don't really seem enough to me. I also haven't seen your experience in editing, and you might be not familiar with editing in source mode? In short, I can't really say much other than what Wogan and GG have said. I'm sorry..  Nikel  Talk  05:19, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I think you need more edit on this wiki. more edit mean more active and learning more, so you will greatly improve this wiki. Wiryawan310 13:55, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
 * Seeing as the consensus is already obvious, I'm closing this nomination. Schnetzka will not be given administrator rights at this time. 15:23, June 1, 2012 (UTC)
