Smurrayinchester

(30/7/2) ending 17:05 23rd January 2006 (UTC)

Smurrayinchester (talk · contribs) – I've been at Misplaced Pages for about 7 months, plus some time before as an anon, and have accumulated 1688 edits. However, some features of Misplaced Pages, notably trying to stop vandalism, are more difficult without rollback/blocking etc. and I hope that with these abilities I'll be able to better help Misplaced Pages. smurrayinchester 17:05, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Oppose

  1. Oppose Short tempered, no three warning as per wikipedia policy. --Masssiveego 04:01, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
    When it's a known vandal IP, three warnings aren't needed. There is no such policy either. NSLE (T+C) 09:13, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
  2. Oppose. Not enough edits to make a valid assessment of suitability as an admin, nor enough edits to adequately learn all the things that even beginning admins should know. 16:39, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
  3. Oppose, 1700 edits in 7 months equates to lack of activity. Radiant_>|< 22:43, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
  4. Oppose. Still too new. Pschemp | Talk 06:37, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
  5. Oppose. Per Radiant.Voice of All 17:24, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
  6. Oppose, not dedicated enough to become admin. Wellmann 01:18, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
  7. Oppose. Please see my RfA criteria, especially introductory paragraph. --Petros471 17:44, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
  8. Oppose - too new. CDThieme 00:26, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Neutral

  1. Neutral. I've seen nothing but good contributions from the nominee, but I'd like to see a higher edit count. --TantalumTelluride 05:30, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
  2. Neutral per TantalumTelluride (and really, Radiant!). —Locke Cole • t • c 10:16, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Misplaced Pages in this capacity. Please take the time to answer a few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:

1. What sysop chores, if any, would you anticipate helping with? Please check out Category:Misplaced Pages backlog, and read the page about administrators and the administrators' reading list.
A. As I said above, primarily I'd like to help against vandalism and join CVU, but I'd also be fine with helping with the various deletion polls.
2. Of your articles or contributions to Misplaced Pages, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. I'm fairly pleased with my articles on the Coping With books and Elderado Dingbatti (my first articles, I think) but more recently some of my templates (those used on WP:ASUE for example or template:Infobox British television) because I feel that templates make Misplaced Pages move more smoothly and appear more professional.
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. So far I've managed to pretty much avoid conflicts, and generally I just try to see both sides of the argument and change my actions if necessary, and then hopefully try to move on from the dispute.
4 What is your stand on the userbox controversy? User:Zoe| 03:51, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
A. I've got no problem with most userboxes, in fact I think they help 'summarise' a user. However, I admit I'm not too keen on the attack userboxes, even when I agree with the sentiment understand their purpose (such as User-AmE-0). However, I am likewise opposed to the deletion-blitzing they are undergoing at the moment, and the unilateral deletions that occured over the New Year.
5 What is your view of fair use images on User pages? User:Zoe| 03:51, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
A. I can see what the problem is, but as long as there's a use for them, I think it's perfectly justifyable.
