Call of Duty Wiki:Requests for Adminship/YellowRiolu

Hey, I'm YellowRiolu as you know and I've been editing here for the good part of nearly 18 months. I've fought through a lot and learnt a lot while here, as you can see from my first edits and now I've become a more experienced editor. I've done lots of undoing and when possible, unleashed rollback to make the wiki better (I've only abused it once and that was ages ago, when I'd just got rollback.)

I aim to use my new tools (if I get them) to delete trolling on the blogs, which I am already semi-active on and when needed hand out a block. I've actually done a bit of research into blocking and have been on the block log quite a bit trying to learn when I should block and how long for, as well as tried out the admin dashboard on my personal wiki. I will also undo vandalism and flag up images where needed-I've never been one to work with images but where needed, I can step into action if no-one else is online. (At least hopefully). All this logic applies for chat because the crew there can be pretty busy sometimes and I can help there and on IRC

Also I would be a much better performer behind the scenes. If I could close topics, AfDs, IDs, and the like, I could take a lot of stress away from the current guys who work in them areas. I'm always on the ID with my buddy Poketape and I would love to take the burden off him to close the nominations when there are some.

You may also notice me on COD:FA and how I have marked a nomination as invalid. I would like to do more of that kind of thing, and as an admin I would be able to take care of the FA nominations so others can have some chill time. I'm an active voter and put in lots of input where I can.

I hope you enjoyed reading what I have to say and cannot wait to see what you guys have to say about this RFA. I will always use my tools to the highest standard where I can :) so, on a last note... Let's do this.

Neutral
You've 1500 edits and have'nt really been around long enough. Sorry. 18:38, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

While you're a good contributor, your attitude isn't always the best. You've probably increased it, or at least tried, but I'm still not convinced. Also, while you signed up a long time ago, you've been on hiatus and you have less than 2000 edits. I'm not sure if you'd have enough experience. 18:42, November 27, 2011 (UTC)

Oppose

 * I know, nerves do get to me... but elaborate a bit more? 18:37, November 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm genuinely not convinced that you have the right mindset for an administrator. I've seen you call for bans on users who don't deserve them many times and I don't think you know what the responsibilities of an administrator are. I'm scared that you'll make very poor decisions with admin tools. 18:41, November 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * That's why we have other admins to lend hands. I'll have to learn all the ways to get blocked and how long to block them for and I have 2 weeks to do that. (If I pass) 18:44, November 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * You are expected to know this before you post the RfA.... 18:50, November 27, 2011 (UTC)
 * Actually, to get to become a sysop/b'crat/etc, they should have knowing and undertsandment of COD:BG, or at least know who's threatening the wiki's order and who is just making bad decisions by mistake.- 18:51, November 27, 2011 (UTC)
