(Edlǣded of Wikipedia:Requests for adminship)

Requests for adminship (RfA) is the process by which the Wikipedia community decides who will become administrators (also known as admins or sysops), who are users with access to additional technical features that aid in maintenance. A user either submits his/her own request for adminship (a self-nomination) or is nominated by another user. Please be familiar with the administrators' reading list, how-to guide, and guide to requests for adminship before submitting your request.

See the list of administrators for complete current listing.
See recently created admins for links to recent successful candidacies.
See adminship candidacies not promoted for links to non-promotions since April 2004.

Boilerplate questions for candidates can be inserted using {{subst:Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Candidate questions}}.

Administrator status is granted to known and trusted members of the community who are familiar with Wikipedia policies. Administrators have no special authority on Wikipedia, but are held to higher standards, because they are perceived by many, particularly new, users as the official face of Wikipedia. Therefore they should take care to be courteous, and exercise good judgment and patience in dealing with other users. Nominees should have been on Wikipedia long enough for people to see whether they have these qualities. Most new administrators have over three months of participation and over 1000 edits. You may nominate yourself, but it is advisable to exceed usual expectations before doing so. You may look at the minimum standards for adminship expected by some users at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Standards.

Nominations remain for seven days so the community can vote and comment on the nomination. Bureaucrats may extend this when consensus is unclear (because consensus is subjective, bureaucrats have some discretion, but the threshold on this page is roughly 80% support). Nominations which are clearly not going to gain sufficient support may be removed earlier to prevent discussions that generate ill will; however, as most editors don't visit Wikipedia daily, a reasonable amount of time should be allowed. Some people oppose early removal under any circumstances. If your nomination is rejected, please wait a reasonable period of time before applying again (at least one month is generally expected).

To add your vote, edit the section for that candidate. You may add a short comment to your vote, but discussion and responses to other comments belong in the Comments section below every nomination. When voting, please update the vote tally of the nomination that you are voting in. The vote tally format is as follows: (Support/Oppose/Neutral).

Anonymous users cannot be nominated, nominate others, or vote. They are allowed to comment.

I would like to go up for Administration status because of my passion for this Wikipedia project and for my contributions. I will list my reasons below:

My personal passion and dedication to the project.
My numerous contributions to the project, of various topics.
Continual revisions of various project pages, with respect to their length and content.
Creating nearly word-for-word translations, to make pages of equal quality to their Modern English counterparts.
I check Recent Changes every single day, to monitor for quality edits, and to be on the lookout for vandalism.
My creations of several categories, and linking them into a proper hierarchy of categories and sub-categories.

I would like to thank everyone who views this and votes.

Support

Strong support. This user deserves and needs to be an administrator of this wikipedia. He does a cleanup, tidies articles... As I can see, currently there's not enough active administrators. Without sysop rights, He is not able to delete deletable files, edit metawiki, undo unprofitable changes and so on... --Viskonsas 21:30, 16 Hrēþmōnaþ 2008 (UTC)
Strong support.--Jeneme 12:44, 17 Hrēþmōnaþ 2008 (UTC)

Oppose

You do contribute, but the grammar needs more work, and word for word translations do not always make for good translations. I would say to wait until your grasp of the grammar and vocab becomes a bit stronger. --James 03:56, 2 Ēastermōnaþ 2008 (UTC)

While I do have imperfect grammar, this does not, in the least bit, prevent me from functioning as an administrator. —Ƿōdenhelm 05:29, 2 Ēastermōnaþ 2008 (UTC)

Comments

By the way, I was that person who suggested Wōdenhelm asking for sysops rights. --Viskonsas 21:30, 16 Hrēþmōnaþ 2008 (UTC)

Although Wodenhelm maybe does some grammatical mistakes, he is very active user here and he does feel enthusiastic about this project. I don't say there are too little sysops here, but one additional sysop who understands Old English wouldn't be too many. At least you're THE ONLY ONE ACTIVE SYSOP here (excluding Drini who doesn't do cleaning here but blocking spamers. I think you should contemplate if Wodenhelm is really inappropriate. --Viskonsas 14:17, 3 Ēastermōnaþ 2008 (UTC)

[ādihtan] Self nominations for adminship

Self-nominators, please review the qualifications above. Some editors feel that self-nominees should "exceed the usual guidelines by a good measure," have an account name that is many months old and have many hundreds of edits. This is not to say that self-nominators are necessarily any less qualified than "sponsored" nominations; however, some editors use their knowledge of the nominator as a "jumping off" point for considering nominees. Most voters can be presumed to consider all nominees on their own merits, and there are even a few who look with special favor on self-nominations as expressing a suitable independence. A good solid background is equally important for both kinds of nomination.

[ādihtan] Requests for bureaucratship

Bureaucrats are simply users with the ability to make other people admins or bureaucrats, based on community decisions reached here. The process for bureaucrats is similar to that for adminship above, but is generally by request only. The expectation for bureaucratship is higher than for admin, in terms of numbers of votes, ability to engage voters and candidates, and significant disqualifications.

Bureaucrats are expected to determine consensus in difficult cases and be ready to explain their decisions. Boilerplate questions for candidates can be inserted using {{subst:Wikipedia:Requests for bureaucratship/Candidate questions}}. New bureaucrats are recorded at Wikipedia:Recently created bureaucrats.
