LEGO Message Boards Wiki:Requests for Rights/Administrator

This is LMBW's requests for administrator page. If you wish to request administrator rights, please read this page first, and make sure you fulfill the requirements listed here.

To file a request, place the following code under the "current requests" header, above any existing requests.

replace this with your username
replace this with a brief paragraph about why you want to be nominated. ~

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. Opposers must provide reasons for opposing. Most requests last for around a week, unless there is clear consensus either way after a short period of time.

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.

I think we need more fully active admins(ATM I believe we only have 4). I edit mainspace frequently, and am on chat quite often. As for maturity concerns, I don't really think I'm immature anymore like I was a year ago, I just tend to say random things sometimes. If anyone has any criticism of me I'd like it if you tell me so I can improve in whatever it is you have to criticize. I'd love it if you's support me, or at the very least, give a good reason not to. Thank you. :3

Support

 * 1) Edits. Doesn't break policies (Okay, this might be a stretch. ) Would also be an interesting addition to the admin team. - White  Shadows  23:19, July 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) 13legoskull
 * 3) Green-kool-aid-man.jpg LCF  (talk! ) Purple-kool-aid-man.jpg 23:22, July 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Heck YES. -Lelouch vi Britannia
 * 5) OFC ~

Neutral

 * 1) You kinda only became a mod recently... and besides, I'm still terrified of the concept of you having even those powers. - Twisted
 * 2) I meet beyond the 2 month requirement. And for the last time, I think I've proven that there's no reason anyone should be worried about me with CM powers.
 * 3) I don't have a reason to oppose you really, but I'm not going to support because, while I don't doubt modding abilities, you're still very new. You meet the requirement to run for admin, but still. It's preferable to have at least 6 months or so moderating experience. Maybe down the road I'd be willing to support, but not ATM. -Ireithien

Oppose

 * 1) I'm still against you being a Chat Mod.  L  • S  • B

Comments
* What am I suppose to say? That I think your opinions are screwed? Yeah, can I just oppose?  L • S  • B
 * @Dep .....I don't break policies.
 * "retardized"? You don't break them other than that, though, really.  - White  Shadows  23:22, July 11, 2014 (UTC)
 * Oh come on, it's just an obvious joke.
 * You suck take forever to cogitate.
 * LSB, that's a generally poor oppose reason, you need to give a good reason to oppose.

*Somewhere in the policy it says you must post a good reason to oppose.

* I know, but I don't want to say my opinion, because it might be too harsh, or trying to be politically correct.  L • S  • B                                                    * Say it anyway, I'd rather have constructive criticism.

* Your opinions are screwed. Just from what I've seen, your personaltiy                                                                                                  just isn't fitted for Admin. Call it maturity, or whatever, I just don't really think you                                                                                                                    would make the best decisions based on what I know about you.  L • S  • <font style="color: blue;">B
 * As I said in the OP, I just say random things on chat, I'm not really immature anymore. And any decision will come from a vote with other admins, so you don't need to worry in that department.
 * I will be praying.  <span class="LSB-Sig" style="background: saddlebrown;text-shadow: 0 0 5px #4D4DFF;color:white;padding:0em 0.5em;border: solid 3px wheat;"> <font style="color: red;">L  • <font style="color: white;">S  • <font style="color: blue;">B

I've been on this wiki for more than three years, and a mod for more than one. I've been able to positively impact the community here in my position (IMHO), and I'd like to continue to do more of the same as an Admin, if possible! I may not be the flashiest or most liked user, but I think I can be consistently counted on to be mature, knowledgable, and honest. I'll gladly take your feedback on what I'm doing right and how I can do better, and if I'm elected as an admin, I'll continue to take the community's beliefs into account when making decisions. All that being said, I'd be glad if you would support me for administrator, or at the very least give me some constructive criticsm. Thanks! A5637 (talk) 21:04, June 27, 2014 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Support. In response to Spy below, I'll only say that not all admins need to be editing maniacs. Still, to each his own.
 * 2) What Jed said.
 * 3) We already have editing maniacs that steal every available edit (Spy, Alemas, sometimes Drew), so I don't think we need any more editors. It wouldn't hurt to have another editor, but it's not exactly necessary.

Neutral

 * Don't get me wrong, you're a great guy, but you don't seem to edit the mainspace or care about our articles and that is the reason I am reluctant to support you.
 * Per above. I am definitely willing to support you if you would edit mainspace some more. -Dep
 * Per Spy, Dep. You only hit 1,000 edits today from those files, and you don't have too many mainspace edits. Articles are what make a wiki. Green-kool-aid-man.jpg LCF  (<font color="#6600FF">talk! ) Purple-kool-aid-man.jpg 22:14, June 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * I suggest a bit more activity and some more edits. But other than that, I would support. Codyn329 (talk) 00:53, June 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * All above. 00:56, June 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * A bit more activity on the whole. MC1
 * After reading Rys' oppose, I've changed from support to neutral. We don't really need more admins right now, even though I think A5 would do a great job of it. - Twisted
 * I completely disagree with pretty much everything that's been said here. More admins would be great (we have like 4 active admins, and could really use some more), and as I've stated before, the mainspace is only one small aspect of being an administrator. At the moment, we have multiple admins who can handle the mainspace, such as Alemas, Spy, and myself. However, I'm still going neutral on this vote. I think A5 is an excellent moderator, but not quite ready for admin (although I certainly believe you're headed in the right direction - 2 months from now could be totally different if you stick with it). A5, if you'd like, I can elaborate elsewhere, but I'd prefer to not take up more space here. Drewlzoo
 * Don't know the guy very well. --Netbag (talk) 12:03, July 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * Not active enough. Sorry. <span class="LSB-Sig" style="background: saddlebrown;text-shadow: 0 0 5px #4D4DFF;color:white;padding:0em 0.5em;border: solid 3px wheat;"> <font style="color: red;">L • <font style="color: white;">S  • <font style="color: blue;">B

Look guys, I know I don't edit much. You know my stance on this. I do care about the wiki, and I'll make sure steps are taken to keep it current and informative, but articles aren't my main focus. I definitely care, I just care more about the administrative side of things. -A5whocan'tgethissigtowork


 * @Von: Your oppose reason certainly isn't stupid, and everyone is entitled to his own opinion. That being said, the comments section is for, well, comments, and as such I'd like to know why exactly it'd be so awful to have another admin. What's so bad about having "too many"?
