Comments


Requests made on this page made are a vote, meaning that if they achieve at least 25 supporting votes and 75% support out of the total supports and opposes, then their request will be closed as successful. Users voting on a request must give a valid reason for their support or oppose. Most requests last for around a week, unless there is clear consensus either way after a short period of time. At least 96 hours must pass before a request can be closed.

If a user has requested administrator rights before, add  to the end of the topic header. If a request for administrator fails, the user who requested the rights must wait 8 weeks before requesting them again. For users with multiple requests, add the respective number of the request. It is also considered good practice to link to previous requests for rights when nominating a user.

Archived requests can be found here.

Hello peoples! So most of you already knew I was gonna be running. :P I was planning on waiting a little longer, but because our most active admin is going to be less active for a while, I thought now would be the time.

So I'll try to get straight to the point. :P I think we need more admins, there are situations that only admins can deal with, so when at least one admin isn't on 24/7 it leaves an opening for chaos. I'm very active and I do already have Forum moderator, chat moderator, and patroller rights, so i do know how to use wikia rights.

As an admin there are some things I can keep up to date, such as Candidates for Deletion, which has been neglected for some time. :P I also try to get several mainspace edits a day so I stay familiar with the mainspace.

If you think I'd be a good admin support me. :D If you go neutral or oppose, please tell me what you'd like to see from me before you'd support! If you have any questions or anything be sure to PM me in chat! Thanks for your time!   Colonel Roy Mustang    (talk) 18:43, August 5, 2015 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Per everyone below. Marro is a great user and he does a great job at setting a positive example, is active on chat and in the mainspace, and has a good sense of judgement. What more could I ask for in an admin?  Avalair  ★  Talk  ★  Wall 
 * 2) I feel like I will somehow regret giving Marro this power in some way in the future, but I trust him more than anyone else who could run right now, and we need admins who exist on chat. —May the Force be with you, and may Darkness follow you. EXTERMINATE!
 * 3) One of the few people who I would think is both qualified for the job and active. slizerguy
 * 4) Active, mature, responsible, ZX would be a great admin. -AP
 * 5) Spider is a responsible CM and FM. I agree, we need more active admins, and he is a great fit for this job. ~KiraNotKirac
 * 6) Yes yes yes. Spidey is an awesome CM, he'll make a great admin. -Derpulse
 * 7) ^^^YEEEES
 * 8) Spidey is an awesome CM and FM and we do need an admin who pays attention to the mainspace and Candidates for Deletion. He'd be a great admin. ~EvilMidnightNG~ (talk) 22:35, August 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * 9) Support, Spidey is a great CM and I'm sure will do well as an administrator. - Rus
 * 10) Per the above ~Psycho ~
 * 11) YAAAAAASSSSS and per ng   Invalid support. 
 * 12) support, ava did a good job explaining -the zapster
 * 13) Convinced myself Seriously, the only reason I don't think ZX would be a good admin is he's active.  --D A  W EIRDO  (leave a message)  19:21, August 6, 2015 (UTC)
 * 14) Per above.
 * 15) Per the above, Marro is a kind and helpful user who would make a great Admin! -Sam8432 (talk)
 * 16) Sure, whatever. Also, why claim a reason is invalid if the user's reason for support is that they are indifferent, but leaning on the support side?  Invalid invalidation
 * 17) Per everything else said above. LondonDauntlessCorvair963 (talk) 02:02, August 8, 2015 (UTC)
 * 18) I think spidey would make a good Admin. :P *Tries to think of a joke I could make about but can't think of anything* XD ~DarthShlomo
 * 19) Support, I suppose - per everyone else. Animal Geek ~ Message Wall
 * 20) Yea he seems like a good fit plus comes on the wiki daily. Would be a nice addittion. MC1
 * 21) Per above LegoWebby101
 * 22) I see no harm in voting for you... that's 'nuff for me. - plurky Invalid reason
 * 23) Spidey is responsible and I feel he can handle the job. But he also edits, which is a plus. - Izzy
 * 24) I will admit that he is a bit knew to this whole "Mod" thing, but I also think that he'd do a great job as an admin :3 ~ZanehDawg
 * 25) Responsible, fun, active, and great at making users feel welcome.... What else do you need to know?? -Abbe
 * 26) ZXSpidermanXZ is mature and competent enough for the job. I believe he is capable. Also, per all the above. -~π~ (talk) 02:58, August 11, 2015 (UTC)

Neutral

 * 1) Frankly, the only reason I'm not cutting in front of Keplers to show my support, is 1, that's not possible really it'd screw the coding or something :P and 2, I'm not allowed to vote Oppose/Support. So, I'm going neutral. I'd support you in a heartbeat, ZX. You are a great CM, FM(though I dont' give a crap about FM :P ) and person, I support. Also, you are very record when there is a lack of admins -Shadow I am The Eternal One. You cannot ever stop me. (talk) 19:32, August 5, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) IDK why I'm not voting support, and I'll probably switch over to support anyway... I guess my natural overcautiousness is the only thing in my way.  --D A  W EIRDO  (leave a message)  01:22, August 6, 2015 (UTC) (Switching to support)
 * 3) ~ Fort
 * 4) I really don't know. Every admin candidate I've supported before has been someone I've had absolute and complete trust in, and I've never considered you as someone for this role, and while I can't think of anything that you do which I disapprove of, my instincts don't want me to support right away, either. I'll think about it, though. Aravis (talk)
 * 5) Agreed with Aravis - very well said. -Harold89 (talk)  -Switched to oppose.
 * 6) Agreeing with everyone else in this category. Guac
 * 7) I'm on the fence still. I want to support but I feel something holding me back. It would be best for me to contemplate before deciding. †hę Djøkøvïϛ Fån
 * 8) What Aravis said, but I will keep thinking about it.
 * idk, i agree with ara rn. maybe in the future i'd reconsider, but for now this is what i got. :P Romaniandude12 (talk) 22:23, August 8, 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) good user with good intentions, although I still have to think about it. Hmm.. Codyn (talk) 06:39, August 9, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) I think he'll be a good admin in the future. Not sure whether he is quite ready for it now. Marcel77799 (talk) 19:01, August 9, 2015 (UTC)
 * 3) I think he might be a good admin, but all that kissing he was doing for a while on chat just...  I guess you can just say it made me feel as if he wasn't the most mature. I know it's been MULTIPLE months and he's come back changed and all that, but I haven't been around that much and I'm stuck, sorry. :/ Lilac Neko (talk)
 * 4) As per stated in the above concern, i feel maturity may be slightly lacking. After observing growth in maturity from Spider, I may change my position. Come as You Are (talk) 20:21, August 10, 2015 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Simply being chat mod for a few months is not enough in my opinion to give you enough experience to become admin. I would like to see you be on LMBW for awhile longer.  L • S  • B  01:32, August 8, 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) Switched to oppose. I am opposing this user because of the great amount of non-supporting votes – even if the majority of those votes are not opposing ones. A large lack of support can be seen in the neutral section and I do not feel comfortable right now supporting this user until they gain more community support. I personally do not want a user for administrator if only a small section of users supported that user for the position. So how should this user gain this "community support", harry? what should they do to improve? As for how this user should change the minds of neutral and opposing voters and gain this community support, he should try and focus on two main things: 1) contuining to understand rights and rights management on Wikia, and 2) utilizing his rights in the most appropriate way possible. I simply do not feel comfortable supporting (or voting neutral, for that matter) a user for administrator when so many people are on-the-fence about him getting these rights, as displayed in the above votes. That's all. Nothing personal bb. -Harold89 (talk)


 * 1) I don't think he is ready. I'm not sure he's quite mature and stable enough for the role. A lot of times, past and recent, I have observed him being involed in "edgey" chat discussions, in lewd manner. Asking for votes on chat a lot as well, which I don't find very genuine.
 * 2) *Asking for votes, whether frequently or infrequently, should not be seen as problematic unless the person in question is asking for supports. If you're running for admin, wouldn't you want everyone to vote on it?

Comment

 * YJF you can still vote on this. -Div
 * As much as I love supports. :P Those who are currently under a one month or longer ban/block are ineligible to vote. 3:   Colonel Roy Mustang    (talk) 03:32, August 6, 2015 (UTC)
 * I'm not allowed to, because I have a 2 month ban >.< But ZX, trust me. If it's any consolation, I'd cut in front of Avalair(wait, how the hell did he get the fist support???) just to show my support.
 * Marro people who are banned are only not allowed to vote on things that directly affect chat solely (rfr:cm, the disable chat for 24 hours community vote.) since Admin gives you powers outside of chat people with bans can still vote. -Div
 * That applies to CVs; but "To be eligible to vote in a request for rights, you must have made at least 75 edits to this wiki (edits on all namespaces count) and must not have a current one-month or longer ban or block." Aravis (talk)
 * obi and I talked about it for rfr as well, I might be mistaken. But if what you said are the actual rules then why was I never counted as invalid for all the other fm/admin rfrs I've voted on? -Div
 * Don't know, you were probably just overlooked. Aravis (talk)
 * @Neutrals Is there anything you're looking for me to do or improve on? Any feedback is appreciated.   Colonel Roy Mustang    (talk) 23:15, August 7, 2015 (UTC)
 * If you're as good as Spidey is, then it is, LSB LondonDauntlessCorvair963 (talk) 02:01, August 8, 2015 (UTC)
 * dang weirdo, that is one of the best support reasons I've ever read -div
 * I will still be avenged for that Shlo. >____>   Colonel Roy Mustang    (talk) 05:45, August 8, 2015 (UTC)
 * Starrocks, Plurky, please supply actual reasons for supporting otherwise your votes will not be counted.
 * If you don't think my reason for supporting is an "actual reason", I might actually switch it to oppose. I am indifferent to what happens to this Wiki, but ZX is a friend, so I thought I'd support.
