Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/No1lakersfan
I urged this nominee to hold off in April, and develop a track record before submitting to a vote. He has done this. User: No1lakersfan (Willy) and I both live in the Virginia Peninsula sub-region of the Hampton Roads Virginia area. We have worked together on a number of articles involving our area (i.e. history, geography, and biographical topics and land transportation) and we both belong to Wikipedia:WikiProject Virginia as well. Willy is a high school senior who hopes to be accepted to attend one of Virginia's public universities in the fall of 2007. I do not know him personally, but only through WP, but I have formed an impression of the kind of young person who epitomizes what we need more of in WP, specifically young people who are seriously interested in what we are trying to accomplish and willing to work to support it. In the time he has been an editor (since March 2006), I have seen responsible collaboration, good fact and reference gathering, appropriate deleberation and caution, and even-headedness. I believe his track record of good edits speaks to this. He has my trust to join our ranks of Wikipedia:Administrators, and I hope those of fellow Wikipedians.
