{{User|NSR}}

I have been aneen a registered editor for Wikipedia since 13 May 2005 and have over 25002700 edits. I have also edited anonymously for a long time, after discovering Wikipedia in late 2002. I recieved a message about adminship so I have decided to nominate myself. Since I do a lot of maintenence work adminship would be useful for me.

#'''Support'''. Not bad at all. I myself started off as an anonymous editor for months on end, and then I got crazy enough to register a username. Before I reached my 3rd month mark, I was nominated and elected for adminship. I don't see why you shouldn't be any different, given the fact that you're an active editor and vandal-fighter.

*'''Question''' I would like to know, what percentage specifically (within 5%) would you consider to be consensus when closing a VfD or related function? [[User:Hamster Sandwich|Hamster Sandwich]] 20:48, 25 August 2005 (UTC)

*'''Comment''' Has he left? He blanked his user page and talk page and his last contribution was 2 days ago. Seems odd that he would leave during his RFA. [[User:Jobe6|<span style="color:green;">Jobe</span>]][[User talk:Jobe6|<span style="color:red;">6</span>]] 05:00, August 28, 2005 (UTC)

'''Questions for the candidate'''<br />

''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 [[Wikipedia:administrators|administrators]] and the [[Wikipedia:administrators' reading list|administrators' reading list]].)

::'''A'''. Dealing with spam/vandalism, helpingmy watchlist is constantly growing and a rollback button would really help. Helping clear out admin backlogs and various maintenence work. I currently help with closing VFD discussions where the result is keep and would like to help out with delete results as well.

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

::'''A'''. I have created many missing articles and redirects as part of the [[WP:MEA|missing articles wikiproject]], including many translations from other Wikipedias. I have also created several useful templates such as [[Template:rcnamespaces]] (which makes RC patrol easier), [[template:userbox]] and [[template:logs]]. A list of my work is on my user page. I have also been working on [[:category:Articles that need to be Wikified|wikifying]] articles (a much neglected task on Wikipedia) and helping out with the maintenence collaborations.

:'''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'''. Most of the conflict I have came across is from vandals and spammers. To avoid conflict I read talk pages and histories of articles I plan to edit. I have had very few complaints about my editing so far. I have a large watchlist of over 2000 articles which I check for any problems.

== Comments regarding the closure of this nomination ==

Boothy443's vote is removed because (a) Boothy443 is believed to be a sockpuppet of a banned user, and (b) Boothy443 has a pattern of making unhelpful votes at RFA.

70.5% of votes are in support, falling short of the usual ratio for promotion of 75-80%.

There are some unanswered questions from late in the comment period. While in other circumstances it might be wise to extend the duration of the vote to permit NSK to respond to them, he appears to have left the project for a time. Therefore, I have closed this RFA without promotion. [[User:UninvitedCompany|The Uninvited]] Co., [[User_talk:UninvitedCompany|Inc.]] 16:44, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
