# '''Support.''' By my investigation, Rob is an editor with obvious clue, the right temperament, and a proven track record in both content creation and nontrivial maintenance work. His answers to the RfA questions are spot on. (I was particularly pleased with his helpful links, for example, his links in question 2 which cite non-admins' authority to close CfD and TfD discussions: it's a small detail many editors, myself included, would have overlooked.) The suggestion that his history is too good to be true is akin to [[Russell's teapot]]: all steam and no substance. If his history is unusual, it is only because his intelligence and assiduousness are unusual. <span style="font-weight:bold">[[User:Rebbing|<span style="background:#f660ab;color:#60f6f6">Rebb</span>]][[User_talk:Rebbing|<span style="background:#60f6f6;color:#f660ab">ing</span>]]</span> 07:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

#'''Support''': having looked through some of Rob's previous contributions at XfD and on talk pages, he seems to be very clueful. I am especially pleased with his willingness to judge consensus on the basis of the arguments given rather than simply looking at numerical weight &ndash; something which, though it ''is'' policy, is not always followed. As for the single oppose rationale that Rob was suspiciously competent as a beginner: well, if it turns out that he has spent a year of his life and 46k productive edits solely to become a rogue admin, then he can be blocked and dysysopped, but I judge the likelyhood of that actually being the case as vanishingly small.

#'''Support''' – Having looked through his edit history, Rob is definitely suitable for adminship. I do not foresee him misusing the tools. [[User:Z105space|Z105space]] [[User talk:Z105space|(talk)]] 08:42, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
