Ief (talk · contribs) - I nominated myself because I don't feel good to ask another Wikipedians to nominate me. I have been on Wikipedia since August 26, 2005. I have not seriously started editing until July 2006. I use Wikipedia as a primary source for my investigations and whatever I want to discover. As you can see from my edit history, my main contribution to Wikipedia is about football articles and politicians. As for editing the encyclopedia itself content-wise, I most also admit that I have not contributed much in this field. As I said before I use Wikipedia as a primary source and I try to fix the articles that have been vandalized or that doesn't have the correct information. Ief 20:57, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Questions for the candidate

Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. You may wish to answer the following optional questions to provide guidance for participants:

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

A: I would like take part in any work that I can do and now about it, also I would like to fight against the vandalism in Wikipedia even more than I do it now. I would like take some articles and try to featured them.

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

A: Generally I make contributions about football or politicians, but as I said before, I use Wikipedia as a primary source of information for my investigations and whatever I want to discover; I try to fix the aticles that were vandalized, so then I don't have in this moment an article that I can call my best.

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: No, I haven't been in any conflict over edits, and I try to understand all the points of view of the other Wikipedians to doesn't have the problem of the stress.

Optional questions from Cool Blue

4. Can you explain the image problem tags on your talkpage?

5. Can you give us a brief outlining on the fair use rationale, what you'd do to enforce it, if anything, and the importance of it?

Oppose

1. Oppose (changed from neutral) - After more thoroughly reviewing, I feel that you're definitely not ready for the tools, and that the answers to your question are not satisfactory. Almost all of the edits on your talkpage seem to be from BetacommandBot. Sorry. Cool Blue^{talk to me} 23:44, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
2. Oppose I'm afraid you aren't ready yet. I'm not an editcounter, but these three things made up my mind. First, your edit summary based on Kate is low. Secondly, with 10 user talk edits, not only you don't communicate much, it means you've probably never warned a vandal before. Thirdly, you have 11 wikispace edits, which means you haven't done any administrator-like chores or helped an admin before. To sum everything up, I don't feel you need the tools at all.

3. Weak oppose Your mainspace edits do look pretty good, but as Evilclown93 says, you've not done anything related to admin work, so you don't seem in a position to need the tools — iridescenti (talk to me!) 23:47, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Neutral Neutral - I don't feel comfortable supporting or opposing. Your heart's in the right place, but I don't feel that you're experienced enough to handle the tools properly yet. I don't feel that the answers to the questions were compelling enough for me to support. Try again in 3-6 months. Cool Blue^{talk to me} 23:41, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

1. Neutral to avoid Pile-On I'm sorry, but I've got no way to know how well you know policy with such a low Wikipedia space count and no way to know how you'll handle confrontation with so few Talk page edits. I would recommend withdrawing for now. Cheers, Lanky ^TAL_K 23:49, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
