Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Josephtheboheme

The following discussion is preserved as an archive of a request for adminship that did not succeed. Please do not modify it.

Note: User removed RfA from WP:RFA, so I am assuming the user no longer wishes to keep this RfA going. Nishkid64 (talk) 19:51, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1. You don't really give a lot of reason as to why you should become an admin. The first answer you gave can be done by anybody, admin or not; you didn't give us a description of yourself; you never accepted the RfA, which is something that must always be done even if you nominate yourself; you have very little mainspace edits, and even fewer Wikipedia ones; and the list goes on. I'm sorry, but even though you've been here since October '06, I just don't think you're ready. // DecaimientoPoético 19:39, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
2. Oppose You're clearly not qualified for adminship yet. Judging from your answer to Q1, I recommend you read WP:ADMIN to familiarize yourself with what admins can and cannot do. Also, from the edits you have made so far, I don't really see any reason for you needing the tools at the moment (there were two RFPP reports, but both were denied). I think you need to keep up your contributions on Wikipedia, and expand yourself to helping with admin-related tasks by reporting vandals at WP:AIV (read WP:VANDALISM and WP:BLOCK), participating in deletion discussion at WP:AFD (read WP:DELETE), make valid page protection requests (see WP:PROTECT) and also help out by tagging articles for speedy deletion or prodding them. You also should familiarize yourself with WP:IMAGE, WP:COPYRIGHT. There are some image tagging issues that are posted on your talk page, and you should read image policies to understand what the problem is. Nishkid64 (talk) 19:41, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
