Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

1. What admin work do you intend to take part in?

A: I would like to help out with pages that involve bands/music because I have a lot of experience in that area.

2. What are your best contributions to Wikipedia, and why?

A: I've corrected mistakes here and there when I've seen them, such as spelling mistakes, etc.

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: Yes. I made a page for The Okay Thrill and after receiving explanations from admins on why that page could not stay, I let it go and decided to put it in the sandbox page so I could edit it and make it better if I decide to put it up again.

Discussion

Oppose

1. Oppose. You have been on Wikipedia for 150 minutes; you have virtually no experience. Paiev (talk) 04:55, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
2. Strong Oppose user is here solely to get a page for his band [1], [2], [3], [4]. . ~Sasha Callahan _(Talk) 05:22, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
3. Oppose The lack of experience is major concern here. I suggest you withdraw from this nomination. --Siva1979^{Talk to me} 05:27, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
4. Oppose I don't recommend this user to be an administrator. He has only contributed since December 6 so far. I suggest that this user wait awhile and see if he has more experience. But for now, I oppose. AL2TB Gab or Tab 05:52, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
5. Oppose Few edits, little experience, and no demonstrated need for the tools. - Crockspot (talk) 06:02, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
6. Oppose No reason to use admin tools, and a lack of experience. Midorihana_{(talk)(contribs)} 06:24, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
7. Suggest Withdrawal We appreciate your enthusiasm but I feel you need a lot more experience in Wikipedia. PrestonH 06:31, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
8. Oppose Too little experience Sickdrummerkid (talk) 06:33, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
9. Oppose Not anytime soon. Jmlk17 06:44, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
10. Oppose - No real experience. Od Mishehu 06:52, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
11. Strong oppose. Twenty-one edits is insufficent experience for an administrator. —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 07:29, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
12. Oppose You didn't even say anything good about yourself for your nomination. --Rschen7754 (T C) 07:39, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Neutral

1. Neutral No need for a pile on. Anyway, your enthusiasm is inspiring, but please consider editing for a considerable amount of time. I'd advise you to withdraw from this RfA, as it is highly unlikely it will succeed. Sorry, Master of Puppets ^{Care to share?} 07:10, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
