Comments

Questions for the candidate
A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? (Please read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.)
A.
  • Spending much time at the Help desk/General complaints I'm often in need of knowledge and application of blocking/unblocking etc
  • Rollback and deletion would be very useful on my tour of Newpages
  • I was rather frustrated that I couldn't help out with the backlog at Misplaced Pages:Requested moves
  • No doubt my propensity for tasks like link repair will lead me other admin related duties.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Misplaced Pages, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A.
  • It's a little out of date now, but RobyWayne's generated statistics indicate my valued contributions.
The link above has just been updated for the Commander. >: Roby Wayne 00:30, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
  • 2005 Tour de France was an exicting editing experience, as was the compilation of its riders list, which was/is the best source of rider information easily accessible on the internet - that's what Misplaced Pages can do.
  • Disambiguation link repair is something which I have invested much time in and enjoy.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A.
Sure, conflict occaisionally (less than a dozen times) occurs in my disambiguation work and elsewhere and the way to deal with it is disucssion and compromise - making sure that both parties know what the community's opinion is, and what's best for Misplaced Pages.
