Call of Duty Wiki:Requests for Adminship

Give a good reason and request for adminship in the bottom subsection if you wish to become an administrator, or bureaucrat.

Requirements for adminship
To qualify to be an administrator, you must meet this set of requirements:
 * Have been here for at least a month.
 * Have edited at least a thousand times.
 * Be civil.
 * Have no record of serious offenses (E.g. vandalism, personal attacks).
 * Be known and trusted by others.

There is a discussion about administrator requirements feel free to contribute your thoughts.

Regulations for voting

 * Keep your cool. RfAs have been known to host some nasty flame wars. If another user disagrees with you and gives you trouble, just keep your cool and don't fight back. That may sound "cowardly", but if you fight back, you could receive a block, and/or make the flame war escalate.
 * New users can't vote. Sorry, but that's the way it is. Someone can easily make a bunch of dummy accounts, all vote for their friend to be an admin, and unfairly turn the tide of the vote. For this reason, new users cannot vote for the possibility of being a sockpuppet. Anyone trying to use sockpuppets will be blocked.
 * Be descriptive. Though you don't have to, it's a lot easier for a discussion if you say why you're voting what you're voting. If you just say "Support - --Example 06:24, 20 April 2008 (UTC)", you're not really saying why the candidate should be an admin, and your vote may be excluded and strikethrough ed. It's not just for supports, but for all votes.

Glossary of vote titles
Not just the standard "Support" and "Oppose"s are used in RfAs. This subsection lists most vote types.
 * Support - A positive vote.
 * Strong Support - A very positive vote.
 * Weak Support - A positive vote, but the voter has not ruled out oppose.
 * Neutral - A vote saying that the voter is unsure about the nominee/between supporting and opposing.
 * Neutral leaning towards Support - A neutral vote, but closer to support than oppose.
 * Neutral leaning towards Oppose - A neutral vote, but closer to oppose than support.
 * Pending - Vote not yet decided; essentially the same as neutral.
 * Oppose - A negative vote.
 * Strong Oppose - A very negative vote.
 * Weak Oppose - A negative vote, but the voter has not ruled out support.
 * Not yet - A negative vote saying that the nominee has not been around long enough, but would be admin material if they had been around for a longer time.
 * Comment - A comment.
 * : - a comment made in response to another comment can simply be indented.
 * Question - A sort of comment that asks a question. (Ex. What would you do with your tools?)

Requests
If you feel you are up to the job, make a subsection for your request, and the community will discuss it.

CodExpert
Hello, I am CodExpert, most of you may know me and some of you may not. I am here today to nominate myself for Adminstrative rights. I feel I have made some good contributions and have helped users. I have done my best to participate in forums and be as active as I can, by reverting vandalism, undoing bad edits, and spellchecking articles. I have accumulated I am a very active user, being on this wiki for several hours almost every day editing articles, reverting vandalism, helping users, and trying to do my best on the wiki to make it better. I have been well-mannered and friendly to other users and I have done my best to work up from that and improve this wiki. I am trying to improve this wiki the best I can and I see no possible way of ending that in the future. I promise that if I do pass I will never abuse my powers and I will treat users fairly unless they have done damage to the wiki and/or it's users, I believe that if I get Sysop powers I will deal with trolls and other vandals more effectively, I will assist wikians in need of help and help them to contribute to the wiki and not vandalize if they have done so in the past. I will say my opinion and stand by it unless the facts prove me wrong. Thank you all for your time. 16:29, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Strong Support - You are the only user that deserves Adminship right now CE. Your on late to protect against late-night vandals and you have perfect behaviour. Nice job.Slowrider7 16:34, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support- 7000+ edits is a lot. I always see you on the activity feed dealing with trolls and vandals. You definitely deserve to become an admin.

Support - Your dedication to the wiki is outstanding. You would really benefit the wiki with admin tools. 16:47, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - The 7,000 edits you have, added with the great integrity you uphold yourself with and the outstanding maturity = one of the most qualified requests I've ever seen. Corporal Juan José Rodriguez Reportin' for duty. 17:02, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per JJR, plus the fact that you are a friendly user would be an added benefit to you being an admin. - 17:06, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per COD4. Doc.  Richtofen  17:09, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - User has been a great anti-vandal and reverting dumb edits. He single-handingly saved the real life articles from deletion. He used to be a blog shitposter but he's really cleaned up his act. Has a perfect behavior record. Darkman 4 17:25, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per all, he demonstrates maturity and friendlyness towards all users he encounters.  Talk 18:06, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per all. The Z(Talk) 18:10, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - He is a great user whohas a great deal of maturity. Maj.Gage Talk. 18:15, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support- Per Darkman and CoD4 Blinzy45 18:47, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Darthkenobi0
Darthkenobi0 has been a hard working editor ever since he became an editor here. He does a lot of work on the mainspace, and can be very influential in the War Room. Both of these are very important qualities when it comes to becoming an administrator. I feel that Darthkenobi would benefit the wiki greatly with new tools, as he is very active and swift to act when there is a problem. As he stated in an IRC discussion, he can be active when other administrators aren't (i.e. late at night). I believe he has the influence, skill and urge to help that it takes to become an administrator.

Support - as nominator. 16:47, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Darth, you are simply put, a highly intelligent, worthy and deserving user. It is your time. Corporal Juan José Rodriguez Reportin' for duty. 16:53, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - He's mature and etc, per his RfA draft wich is somewhere... 16:55, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose - Sysops need better behaviour than his. Dont take this personal Darth, but its true. You start way too much flamebait. Not just for TMOI and PGB, against Anons and really anyone. Slowrider7 16:58, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per nomination - 16:59, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per JJR. Doc.  Richtofen  17:09, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose - I don't think his "The wiki revolves around my opinions!" (seen here and here) attitude would be an asset to the community. He's great as an anti-vandal, but I don't feel that giving him admin tools would be a good idea, given his personality. Something tells me he'd cause an incident somewhere down the line because of his attitude. Darkman 4 17:26, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Neutral - Darthkenobi0 is proactive in War Room discussions and has put forth proposals on numerous occasions. His eagerness to edit and improve the wiki is certainly something to be admired. Normally, I would give complete support, but there are two main concerns that I have with this user. The first more of an observation; Darthkenobi0 created the proposals that Imrlybord7 and Darkman 4 be desysoped and decratted, respectively. The second is a bigger issue I have with supporting. This conversation shows borderline personal attacks, calling TMOI "a bitch," "newfag," and "ignorant asshole," but TMOI may be provoking some of that. And I do agree in some respects with Darkman that his attitude can sometimes be the opposite of what an ideal administrator should have. 17:37, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Changed to: Neutal, leaning towards Support - I love your eager need for eidting. Those words you called TMOI were harsh even if he was provoking you. But per Bovell's points above, I'm not so sure anymore. Sorry. 18:02, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - I'd peg what he said as flamebait, which is a big no-no, even if TMOI was acting up. Darkman 4 18:05, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Neutral, leaning towards Support - Darth is a very good user who points out various policies and tries to help this wiki the best he can. However, the propsals for de-cratting & de-sysoping other crats/admins really got me there. Aside from that, he would make a great admin. Maj.Gage Talk. 18:13, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per JJR. The Z(Talk) 18:15, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

II Helljumper II
'Sup I'm II Helljumper II, but you can me Lozza. I have been a member on this wikia since Christmas Day and I have an impressive [|edit count] under my belt. I am online when some other users arn't due to the fact I live in Britain. I really like the community aspect of this wikia, and IF I become an admin I will try to make sure what you want gets across. I really hate Vanadals and wish the would just get a life, like us :P Thanks,   Lima Oscar Zulu Zulu Alpha

Oppose - Your editcount is not nearly as large as that of CodExpert or Darthkenobi. Sorry, but they would be made admins over you. 17:18, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Comment - Do you really think that an arbitrary number such as edit count has any bearing on how qualified a user is to be an administrator? 17:41, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

WHISKEY35
To all concerned, I do hereby submit for your approval, a Request for Administrator status. I know that I am fairly new to the Wiki but I know that I can, and have been an asset to the Wiki. I have been active on the Wiki ever since I joined on 27 March 2010. I came here looking for info on Titles and Emblems and stayed on because I saw the need to better those pages. I have found that this wiki is in constant need of attention due to the vandalism that occurs here daily. I have made well over 6000 edits, equaling over 400 to files needing licensing, over 3500 welcoming New Users, numerous reverts made by vandals, numerous categorizing to pages in need. I have also helped lot of new users with questions. If I don't know the answer then I will direct them to someone who can help them. I am also active in the War Room Discusions. Some may say that all I do mostly is welcome New Users. While that maybe true, I believe that it is very important for letting the 'New" user know what the policies of the Wiki are and also to let them know help is available if they need it. Also they can check my edit counts and see that welcoming is not all I do in the Wiki. I am not merely interested in welcoming but the overall maintaining if the Wiki. I am usually on the Wiki all the time and live in a time zone that permits me to be on when most admins are sleeping or away. Therefore, if I had the tools available to me I could take immediate and appropriate action to stop vandalization of our Wiki. I believe I have demonstrated a mature and professional attitude while here on the Wiki and have made numerous friends while here. I do thank the Admins and Users that have helped me along the way and I will be here for a long time to come. Your kind consideration in a positive approval would be greatly appreciated and I promise to do my best in my administration of this wiki. Sincerely yours,  Talk  17:48, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Outstanding, mature, and friendly user, greatly deserves administrative rights. 17:50, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Great, mature, nice. I agree with CodExpert. 17:54, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per CodExpert. The Z(Talk) 18:08, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support -  Per CodExpert -  18:11, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - He is a very mature user and has welcomed SEVERAL user to this wiki, which means he has great skills with other people. I believe he has what it takes. Maj.Gage Talk. 18:09, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Per CE. Doc.  Richtofen  18:26, June 24, 2010 (UTC)
