'''
{{User|Mallanox}} - It gives me great pleasure to nominate one of admin mentees, {{user|Mallanox}}, for adminship. Mallanox has been an active Wikipedian since April 25, 2006 (five days until the one-year Wikipedia anniversary!) and has amassed 7,000 edits to his name since then. He's a great candidate for adminship since he both shows a need for the admin tools and demonstrates Wikipedia policy and its many applications across the namespaces. A member of WikiProject Films, Mallanox has spent most of his time doing remedial work cleaning up articles that are in bad shape. He's had a good deal of experience with RC patrol, XfD, and AIV. Mallanox is a great guy to talk to, and he's always civil and respectful to all editors on Wikipedia. I think Mallanox has some great characteristics and qualities, all of which will be of use as an administrator. Without further ado, I present Mallanox!

#'''Support''': I don't see anything wrong with this user. Has the experience and knowledge. Also seems to have the ability to think through decisions before making them, so does not look likely to abuse the tools. Should make a fine administrator. <

#'''Support'''. Has Wikipedia's interests at heart: clearly very good at keeping a cool head, open-minded about "unsavoury" topics, and I like his take on rescuing speedied pages if they can be. - '''Zeibura S.

#'''Support''' — reasonable level of experience, good contributions to the encyclopedia, good answers to the questions, and no reason to believe that the user would not be trustworthy with administrative tools. <span style="border: #AAF solid 4px; background: #11E; padding: 2px; margin-right: .5em;">[[User talk:Crotalus horridus|<

# '''Support'''. Seven thousand edits without substantial complaints. That's impressive. One might interpret the lack of talk page edits to be the lack of something, but on the other hand, if everything is being done right and nobody has a problem with it, there isn't much need for discussion.

#I know from watching you interact with others fairly recently that you can admit when you've made a mistake, probably the most important attribute that any admin can have.

#: <s>I'd rather have a candidate with a vandalism userbox than a candidate (or an admin) who creates a "secret" list in userspace (which can be found easily using [[Special:Prefindex]]) and who seems [[User talk:Kelly Martin/Archives/2006 July#WP:NOT|hostile and confrontational]] when questioned about it. (See also [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive123#User:Kelly_Martin.2F.3F|this discussion]] at [[WP:AN/I]]).

::I've crossed swords with Kelly before but I have to say that she was entirely reasonable in the discussion you mention [[User talk:Kelly Martin/Archives/2006 July#WP:NOT|here]]. It was the person trying to order her around in a very high handed manner who was being 'hostile and confrontational'. I don't agree with her wikiproject endorsement idea but if that's her position she's at liberty to state it. I don't see the point in attacking her in this way at all.

:::::This is also a kind of editcountitis. Too many user talk edits suggests too much socializing; too few user talk edits suggests lack of interaction with other edits. Can somebody please publish the "acceptable ranges" for each namespace so that future RFA candidates can make sure to get the requisite number in each namespace? Me, I'm working on getting my category talk edits up. NOT! ;^)
