Thfrang (talk · contribs) - YOUR DESCRIPTION OF THE USER Thfrang 11:21, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

i accept my nomination for admin. i think id make a good admin, i wont abuse my privellages and i think id make this site a much better place.


[edit] Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?
A: i intend to fix info on topics that i know enough about and if i see any vandalism, i will take the appropriate steps to fixing it.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: i think my best contributions are for westfield doncaster. even though i sometimes do inappropriate things ther, i am just human and i make mistakes. but i think my input is valid because i go there frequently, i know enough about it and i live near it, so i am sure that id know more about it than someone from new zealand for example.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: i have had conflicts with some users, but i think i resolved most and if i didnt, it wasnt my fault and it was because the other user couldnt accept my useful edits. if i do have conflics in the future, i will try to be civil and be a good person.

[edit] General comments

Please keep discussion constructive and civil. If you are unfamiliar with the nominee, please thoroughly review Special:Contributions/Thfrang before commenting.

[edit] Discussion

  • I found something interesting! [1] - User seems to write the same way and seems to like editing the same article. ScarianCall me Pat! 10:52, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
    • I think the spelling mistakes helped to give it away? :) Gary King (talk) 10:56, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
      • He's naughty for using his IP to edit war. I don't know what we should do though. ScarianCall me Pat! 10:57, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Send him over to WP:MOS for starters, to explain why, at the very least, spelling and grammar are important. I tried to encourage him (?) yesterday [2] to re-consider this... Yngvarr (c) 11:05, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Oppose
  1. Oppose Too new. More experience needed in article building, conflict resolution and admin related work, such as vandal fighting and WP:AFD. Edit summaries also need to be used more. Epbr123 (talk) 10:19, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  2. I'd recommend you read up on our policies regarding original research. I'd also recommend you not take things so personally when others edit articles you are interested in. This is not the way to handle edits you see as being poor. Sorry. Pedro :  Chat  10:21, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
    Oh, calling people who try to offer some constructive criticism "racist" [3] [4] is not really on. Please don't do that. Pedro :  Chat  10:25, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  3. Oppose Close per WP:SNOW? Gary King (talk) 10:39, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  4. Oppose 62 total edits. Not at all ready. SNOW. Horologium (talk) 10:45, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  5. Oppose This shows me they don't have the temperament to be an admin. I urge the nominee to withdraw, or for this to be snowballed Steve Crossin (talk) (anon talk) 11:23, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  6. Oppose, if you can't even fill out the nomination form properly and completely, I'm not that confident that you'll make a good admin, I'm sorry. Lankiveil (speak to me) 11:37, 22 April 2008 (UTC).
  7. Oppose Not enough experience. —Dark talk 11:41, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  8. Oppose: This being an encyclopedia, no one with such a poor grasp of grammar, spelling and punctuation should be an admin.  RGTraynor  11:43, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  9. Oppose For obvious reasons. --Siva1979Talk to me 12:14, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  10. Oppose – Sorry, can not even give moral support in this case. ShoesssS Talk 12:33, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  11. Oppose Sorry, but I think its going to snow today. TheProf - T / C 12:43, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Neutral
  1. Neutral. Keep up the good work and try again in 6 months or so. Malinaccier Public (talk) 12:32, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
