Seems like a great guy to me. He participates in vfd alot, reverts vandalism, and does not have editcountitis. He has been using edit summaries almost since the beginning of his Misplaced Pages career, which started on 00:39, 19 November 2004. Tool shows he has 1128 edits, as of about 10 minutes ago. I definitely feel he will wield the sacred mop wisely, and I hope no editors will be harmed in this RFA. --Phroziac (talk) 03:11, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Candidate, please indicate acceptance of the nomination here:I gladly and honorably accept this nomination. Just as a note: before you vote, please read all I have to say to the questions below rather than judge based on edit counts (after all, editcountitis can be fatal ;-)). Thanks!

4. Support - he edits a wide variety of articles, and he's a great help on VfD as well. --Idont Havaname 05:45, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

Oppose

1. oppose. Seems, to me anyway, to take too much of a 'hands on' and personal approach to problems better solved with deliberation and reflection.Brandonfarb 05:51, 21 July 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.)

Well, I would really look forward to help close up the VFDs, CFDs, TFDs etc. along with my standard RC patrol (I would make good use of the revert button) as well as the standard speedy deletes (I already tag alotta pages for speedy deletion which which probably would add another 200+ edits to my edit count). I also would help out in mediating whatever arguements I notice like I already do.

2. Of your articles or contributions to Misplaced Pages, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?

Most recently, I pretty much rewrote and started the Yogi Rock article which got onto DYK. Overall, I don't think I have made any super controvercial edits and only revert edits due to vanalism. I have never started an edit war (or ever will) as I always defer to talk pages (see Japanese war crimes and the talk page for evidence). I also help wikify new pages and general formatting (which by itself is not that important but when you keep it up, I think it deserves some recognition).

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?

I don't think anyone has ever caused me stress, but I have helped mediate some conflicts. The most recent one I can think of is over the credits in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi. I have always kept a level head when editting and I think thats most important for an admin over anyhing. O, and of course I'm civil, good mannered and what not ;-).
