Evilphoenix

Vote here (29/0/0) ending 05:20 October 14, 2005 (UTC)

Evilphoenix (talk · contribs) – I joined Misplaced Pages on May 9th, having lurked for several months, enjoying reading the encyclopedia and learning more about the method in which it is being created. The culture of civil discussion, consensus building, and striving for a neutral, factual point of view greatly impressed me and led me to my decision to contribute to Misplaced Pages, which has been a very enjoyable experience for me so far. I have over 2,100 edits (Kate's Report), and spend most of my time here either copyediting or working on New Page patrol, with occasional participation in AfD discussion.

Be a slight bit more careful in placing things for AfD, ok? I loved this comment from this nominee "We have no sense of humor here on Misplaced Pages" (on this page) Hysterical!

  22. Weak Support because he never told me he was running! I would have been glad to nominate! :P Strong support anyway. Redwolf24 (talk) 23:20, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
    Aww, I'm flattered. Thanks for saying that you would have liked to nominate me, and I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but I didn't want to give the appearance of campaigning. I appreciate the endorsement nonetheless, though. Ëvilphoenix 13:56, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Neutral

  1. My only memory of Evilphoenix is this edit , which was marked "rvv". Since this wasn't vandalism, but a content dispute about moving something to another page, with an edit summary saying "see talk", I feel that more though could have gone into it. The other votes suggest that this is an isolated event, which I hope it is. JPD 10:59, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

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.I would like to work on to clearing pages from Copyvio, work on Speedy deletion patrol (mostly clearing articles already tagged by other users), and close out AfD discussions. I would also not mind having page protection and rollback abilities to deal with vandalism. I would also like to participate more in the RfA process. I have been observing RfA's here for some time, and I know that some editors prefer to see RfA candidates that have participated in RfA discussions. In my mind, I feel that sysops would know best what qualities to look for in a sysop, so I have not generally participated at length in RfA discussions, with exceptions for a few candidates that I did know well enough to voice an opinion on.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Misplaced Pages, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
Generally, I do one of two things: copyedit and New Page patrol. For copyediting, I enjoyed working on Tooth enamel , Korean Buddhism , and Kinnaur . I founded the Harry Potter WikiProject, which is doing very well. I also participate in an outside wiki using MediaWiki software, the ClemsonWiki, and I edit there as Evilphoenix as well. I am a sysop on that site, so I have had a chance to get a feel for the added buttons, but in all fairness, the infrastructure there is not nearly as complex as on WikiPedia, and there is also less vandalism and conflict.
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.I do not feel I have had any serious editing conflicts. There have been a few occasions where I have disagreed with other users. Generally, my practice has been to discuss it on the Talk page when I find evidence of disagreement with another editor. I am a big believer in the value of consensus and discussion, and the culture of pursuing those ideals on Misplaced Pages was one of the things that appealed to me about the project, and is part of why I chose to participate. I have occasionally encountered "WikiStress", but that has thankfully been rare, and more from fighting Vanity, Linkspam, and hoaxes on New Pages than from any dealings with regular Misplaced Pages users. I believe that in any conflicts I would encounter, I would follow the practices of the Wiki, seek to build consensus, and engage in discussion of the issues.
