Nomination

Auric (talk · contribs) – It is my pleasure to nominate Auric for adminship. He has been in Wikipedia since 2003, and has wrote 318 articles. He also has the reviewer and autopatrolled rights, and has just over 43,000 edits, with 82.5% in the article namespace. I think with stats like that, and just how friendly he is overall, he would easily net positive for us. Overall, he is a great Wikipedian who should have been given the mop a long time ago. buffbills7701 12:57, 14 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. Please answer these questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?
A: Basically the same sort, involving tidying and reverting vandals. More will come.
2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?
A: I value all my contributions equally.
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
A: Some. Generally I deal with stress by taking a break.
Additional question from Cindamuse
4. Would you mind elaborating on your answers to Q1–3? These questions are asked in order to provide us with a starting point to evaluate your contributions and understanding of policies and guidelines, along with your problem-solving skills and process for resolving conflict. That said, your answers really don't offer us much to go on. For example, I tend to value quality of contributions over quantity. While I think it's great that you value your contributions, could you help us out by providing links to some of your contributions which you consider to be of higher quality? Further, you haven't actually referred to administrative work in Q1, so I would be interested in some clarification.
A:
