SpyroSonic2000 (Administrator) SpyroSonic2000 (talk): Contributions Edit Count

Please thoroughly read through my nomination reasons before casting your vote.

I nominate SpyroSonic2000 for administrator. His contributions to the wiki have been constructive ever since he joined. He's been a major part of our chat moderator team for almost a year now. He has made great use of his rollback tool (just look through his contributions), and is constantly reverting vandalism, speculation, etc. He gives appropriate warnings to said rule breakers, and also keeps a good eye on blogs. You may be questioning his experience and need for the tools here, and I can provide answers to both. As a chat moderator, Spyro has exceeded all of my expectations. He is arguably the most experienced moderator of the bunch and is part of all discussions regarding banning unruly users. He provides me with administrative feedback if I ever need it. This experience as a moderator will transition well as an administrator. His need for the tools is also fairly high. His constant reverting of unconstructive edits will help him deal with such users more efficiently. He is also very active in site discussions to help improve the wiki.

I also believe that even though we have a very decent number of active administrator, we could use all the help we can get. It's always a good thing to have a high number of administrators. The more we have, the safer the wiki will be. We could also use more at such a time when new games are being announced and more traffic is being directed at the wiki. Spyro is also on for a large portion of the day keeping watch over the wiki and chat. I would like to remind everyone that editcount isn't the main focus here. His mainspace contributions have been significant enough to show he is an active editor of this wiki. You are free to oppose for a lack of "need" for administrators or "low" edits, but please consider otherwise. This user is capable, trustworthy, and will make an excellent administrator. This is why I am honored to nominate SpyroSonic2000 for administrator. --{{User:Bullet Francisco/Signature}} 20:31, May 17, 2013 (UTC)


 * I feel that I am ready to become and admin, I have my user rights to the best of my ability and I feel that admin rights will be helpful in the future. {{User:SpyroSonic2000/Signature}} 20:51, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) As the poster. -- 20:31, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) He seems fit for the role, and is very mature. No reason to oppose. --- 20:36, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) I've seen nothing to make me truly feel that he wouldn't be capable of handling Administrative powers. Plus I also trust Bullet's words on this nomination. If he feels that SpyroSonic2000 is indeed capable enough to handle the role competently, then (assuming community consensus is in favor of his promotion) I'll give him the rights myself and see if he can prove everyones hopes right.

 * 4) Spyro is an amazing editor. I'm quite surprised that he isn't already an administrator, really. I didn't really pay attention to the list of admins, because I haven't really needed to yet. Ironically this coincides with Spyro's birthday, but this would be fit any day of the year. I support.

 * Yes, Spyro has been a good asset to the wiki. He is sensible and hard-working, and I'm confident he can handle the responsibility and the new abilities he would gain. Good luck, Spyro. 21:17, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) Spyro is a very hard worker both on the wiki and in chat, and it is very clear he has used his tools correctly and thoroughly. He is very mature, and honestly, I can't think of a reason to oppose. 17 May 2013 22:17 (UTC)
 * 2) Spyro is to be appreciated for his edits. I support. 23:01, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) SpyroSonic has been guy, that have done his job well as chat moderator and I wanna see, how well it goes as admin. Go on! - MarioSonic (talk) 23:34, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 4) I see no reason to oppose Spyro's promotion, he is a great editor and keeps check on many blogs. Plus I trust Bullet's judgement, if he thinks that Spyro should be an admin then he's probably right. -- Psyche  the Hedgehog  23:40, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 5) Spyro is a fantastic user here on SNN. He has done quality edits and is already a great chat mod. I also trust Bullet's judgement with this nomination. Sandra the Porcupine  "Either you do or you don't."  17:55, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * 6) Per ALL the people. 03:42, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * 7) Spyro has definitely had his share of experience. I've no doubt that he is more than ready for this promotion. 16:28, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * 8) At first I was like Blue: believing Spyro was a "good user" but knowing something was keeping me from supporting. I now realize that I was thinking of Spyro's lack of mainspace editing. If what Bullet has said is true, Spyro knows his stuff, and if I believe what I have seen, Spyro can use these powers well. He doesn't even have to edit mainspace all that often to be a good administrator. Thus, after coming to this realization, I cannot find any major reasons to oppose, but I have many reasons to support. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 16:25, May 29, 2013 (UTC)

VOTING IS NOW CLOSED

Oppose

 * 1) I'm gonna oppose, I'm kinda unsure about you having admin rights yet. Pacmansonic138 (talk) 22:50, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

VOTING IS NOW CLOSED

Discussion

 * I'm considering on this nomination. I believe Spyro is a great user, but there's something that doesn't want to make me support this nomination. :S 16:21, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
