Sonic News Network:Requests for User Rights

Requests for adminship (RfA) is the process by which this wiki's community decides who will become administrators (also known as admins or sysops), who are users with access to additional features, most notably the ability to delete pages and to block users. A user either submits his/her own request for adminship (a self-nomination) or is nominated by another user. Please become familiar with the Administrators' how-to guide before submitting your request. This process is modeled around Wikipedia's RfA process, and more information can be found at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship.

Nominating
To submit a nomination for somebody else, please create a section below the "Current nominations for adminship" line listing the nominee's username as a piped link to his/her userpage. Below that, please include a statement about why you are nominating this person and why you think they will be a good admin. The nominee should then accept (or reject) the nomination, and include a statement about why (s)he wants to become an admin, why (s)he thinks (s)he is a good candidate, and what (s)he plans to do with administrator rights. All users must sign and date their statements.

To submit a self-nomination, please create a section below the "Current nominations for adminship" line listing your username as a piped link to your userpage. Below that, please include a statement about why you want to become an admin, why you think you are a good candidate, and what you plan to do with administrator rights. Please sign and date your statement.

Editorial Note: Adminship is NOT taken lightly. You may actually want to spend some time on your request. A couple sentences is hardly sufficient to show that you won't cause more problems than you solve with admin tools, let alone that you think that there is a good reason why more admins are necessary and that you would be a good candidate for a new admin, that you're willing to put time and effort into this wiki, and that you know how to use admin powers properly and would do so.

Discussion
Once a nomination has been made, users will review the nominee and declare their support or opposition by commenting. Such posts should be bulleted (with asterisks *) and preceded by Yes, No or Neutral. When declaring support or opposition in this way, please refrain from using a talk bubble, even if you frequently use one on talk pages. This is to help bureaucrats to easily determine who is for and who is against the nomination.

In this section, users may also make comments (to be preceded by Comment) or ask the nominee questions (to be preceded by Question) in an attempt to get a better idea of the nominee's strengths and weaknesses. Remember to use colons or asterisks (*) at the beginning of lines when responding to other people's comments.

If you wish to change your opinion at a later date, please strke through your original Yes/No/Neutral declaration (you can do this with the tags as follows: Yes produces Yes ).

This is not a majority vote. It is an attempt to assess the community's consensus regarding the candidate. Moreover, to become an admin, the candidate should have the support of most of the community, so if the vote is split, the candidate will probably not be given adminship. Any user can contribute, but opinions have more weight if backed up by reasons and evidence (e.g. occasions in which the nominee has done particularly good or bad work). The opinions of long-standing users, particularly current administrators, will also tend to hold more weight than recently-joined or inexperienced users.

After a reasonable amount of time, a bureaucrat (a user who has even more rights than an administrator, and can give other users admin rights) will read through the request, determine the community's consensus about whether you should be made an admin, and close the discussion. The discussion will be removed from this page, but is still accessible through the page's edit history.

New format
Note: A new format of adminship discussion has been proposed at Sonic News Network talk:Requests For Adminship. All users are welcome to share their thoughts.

Advice
Here are some pieces of advice for nominators and nominees:
 * Please read through and follow the nomination guidelines above. Failure to do so will harm your chances of success.
 * Demonstrate that you understand what being an admin involves. Read through Help:Administrators' how-to guide if you are not familiar with the role.
 * Admins are expected to be good users first, but this is not sufficient to be made an admin. Number of edits, number of pages created, being nice to other users, not engaging in vandalism, knowing about Sonic, etc. are signs of a good user, but they should have no bearing on the discussion for adminship. Only users widely recognised as good users should be nominated for adminship (those that have not demonstrated this through their work will have their nominations rejected quickly) and they do not need to prove this again during the debate for adminship.
 * Don't expect that the community will be familiar with your work. You must provide evidence. In its simplest form, this may include listing pages (or talk pages) where you have been particularly influential, but preferably you should provide a link to the Diff pages of major edits you make.
 * Similarly, don't expect that the community will necessarily be aware of your nomination. You are advised to request comments from regular users, particularly admins (a list of whom can be found here). Note, however, that only asking your own friends to comment is usually transparent and may harm your chances in the long run.
 * If you are an admin on another wiki site, this can provide good evidence of your suitability for adminship, assuming either you have been granted adminship in recognition of the work you have done on the site (as opposed to receiving it because you founded the site or were one of the only users) or you have been an effective admin having received the privileges. You must provide a link to the site in question.
 * Don't lie, as doing so will almost certainly result in a failed nomination.
 * Be patient. This process is not quick. If you cannot wait for the process to conclude at its own pace, you probably aren't ready for adminship anyway.
 * Remember that this is not a talk page. Please keep discussions relevant to the matter at hand and do not start to chat. For instance, try not to thank everybody who votes in your favour.
 * Don't attempt to influence the discussion by promising to do something if you are successful.
 * Don't talk about things that you don't do, only things that you do do.
 * Please be civil!
 * Read User:Sonicrox14's blog: User blog:Sonicrox14/So, You Wanna Be An Admin?! and take a second thought about adminship.

Current Nominations For Adminship
Here are the users who are currently nominated for sysop, rollback, bureaucrat, or other privileges. === Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round (Bureaucracy) === Whoo boy; when I first went for adminship on SNN over a year ago, I couldn't believe I was seriously trying for it. Now, I'm going a step further, and can't believe it. Anyways, I've been on SNN for almost two years, though my activity in the last few months has been down. I'm experienced in the working of this wiki, know most of the more experienced Users, and know how to work most of the aspects of this wiki. I get along with most of the Users, have a good reputation on this wiki and others, and as I've proven many times, can handle myself in various situations. I hope to get bureaucracy so that I might have more to do on the wiki, in that I can help manage the wiki more, and handle fights involving or between admins. I can also help promote and (hopefully on extremely rare occasions) demote admins. I've also been told by Fairfieldfencer, one of the most experienced Users around, that I'm a very good judge of character (seen here), so I can hopefully deal with Users properly as a bureaucrat. So, please vote on whether or not you think I deserve bureaucracy. For a long time I've believed I didn't, but with bureaucracy I hope to be of more use to this wiki, so I hope you all do think I deserve it.--Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round 05:32, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

YES! I think you deserve this position. Here is my testimony.

I've known you for almost two years. And the work you've done in those years was simply splendid.

What Fairfieldfencer says is true. You are a very good judge of character. However, keep in mind that you aren't perfect. That's the stuff of fiction. xD

And you are quite experienced. In fact, I think you sped past my experience level. (I blame me going AWOL)

On top of that, you are very good at serving justice where it's due. I'd have you be the judge of my cases anyday, if it was up to me. lol

And there you have it. That's my testimony. Any NOs that are willing to destroy it?-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 08:45, January 30, 2011 (UTC)

Yes: Well, a blind man could see that you're qualified enough. You have wikia experience, you have been made admin on several sites, you've kept a good record (except for a few events that i witnessed with my own eyes), you've given alot to this wiki, so I think it's time you got something back. I rest my case. -- 'Murphyshane - Morph! He's alive! Don't click here '11:15, January 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * No: I'm afraid I don't think this is appropriate. You're a good admin, absolutely, but I don't think you're a good fit for bureaucracy. You say you want to be a bureaucrat so that you have more to do - considering your contributions lately have been slipping (as you yourself attest), this is a poor reason. Whatever is the reason for your slipping contributions, it certainly isn't because you're not a bureaucrat, so I fail to see why giving you these extra privileges is going to make you work harder.
 * Possibly you think that some important bureaucracy work is not being adequately performed - in which case, first of all, you should tell the current bureaucrats so they can improve their own performance and, second of all, you should say that here so that it improves your chances.
 * Lastly, while you might be a good judge of character (incidentally, I can't find FFF saying that anywhere on the page you linked to), I don't think you are particularly adept at investigating incidents before handing down judgement. On several occasions I have seen you hand out blocks that seemed incredibly excessive, then when I looked into the matter I could find no real reason behind them - in one memorable case, you had blocked the individual that was actually being bullied. Now I'm not saying this is common, but I've seen it enough to think that it might happen in the future, and there's a bigger risk if you have the bureaucrat powers. -- Supermorff

No: I'm with Supermorff on this one. I also do not see Fairfieldfencer saying that in the link, but that shouldn't matter. I do not think you are a good judge of character at all. You block excessively for no good reason and you set the ban pretty long. I do not see you being responsible for anything. You have given many delays for the work you had to handle. You are a good admin, one of the best in this site. You are experienced as well and you do not talk any nonsense at all. But, I am not certain for your bureaucracy, I do not think you are fit for a rank like that.
 * Personally I did dislike one thing of yours - Bunnyboo50 asked you to make an image of her character into 3D, I was quite surprised on the reply you had given to her, you replied that you do not take requests from strangers. First of all, for an admin noone is a stranger in this site because an admin has to know about everyone, but that's not the reason why I was surprised. You are an admin, Kagi. You have to try to help anyone and give your best especially when a new user is asking you something when it comes to help. That reply was quite rude. Even though it had nothing to do with this site, it was still more of an anti-admin to me. You need to help anyone.
 * You can give the reason on why do you want to be a bureaucrat. What will you do when you earn bureaucracy?
 * There was a time in which Multiverseman asked you to block Sonic & Scrab Master (I am not sure about the reason though) and you directly swore and flamed at him. There are the many times your decision appear to be rash and you flame out anger at people who say a little negative about your friends. I am not sure you can stand up for a person who is not your friend. It seems alot like you just wish to help your friends and listen to no-one else.--58SlugDrones! 15:24, January 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * @Supermorff: The reason I believe bureaucracy will help me improve my contributions is that I'll have more responsibility when it comes to the wiki. In addition, I know I can occasionally be rash, but I'm only human. I don't recall ever blocking someone who was the one being bullied, but if that happened then I apologize. I'll be more careful with banning people in the future. And also Morff, there are only two 'crats on here.
 * @58SlugDrones!: 1: Alright 58, get the whole freaking story before you talk about this stuff. First and foremost, Bunnyboo's request has absolutely nothing to do with my adminship. When I said I don't do requests for strangers, I was referring to the fact that I don't know Bunnyboo in the least; I don't even know whether they're a he or a she! Regardless of being an admin or not, I'm not going to just accept a request for a picture that comes out of nowhere from a complete stranger. Wouldn't have mattered if they asked me here, SFW, DA, or anywhere else. Accepting art requests has absolutely NO bearing on my status as an admin, so I'm rather upset you think that has anything to do with this. The only responsibility I have is to keep this wiki safe and organized, and keep other Users out of trouble; what I do beyond that (so long as it doesn't break any rules) has nothing to do with my adminship. 2: I'm hoping that the additional responsibility will be enough for me to be more active on the wiki. 3: As I said, get the whole freaking story. Mult wanted SSM banned over something that involved a seperate wiki; a person can't be banned for something that occurs on a different wiki, because it has no bearing on the other wiki. Mult obviously dislikes SSM and wants him gone, so when he saw the opportunity, he ran right to me in order to get him banned. I saw the blatant bias in this, and I was furious that Mult attempted to pull such an obvious, idiotic stunt. Second, I do not let my friends get away with breaking rules; that's one of the aspects that got me nominated to be a 'crat here. However, regardless of adminship or anything else, I will stand up for my friends if I have to, just like any other person would.--Kagi mizu -Seeya 'round 20:07, January 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * Maybe: Look Kags, I like you, you like me, we're both good friends. While I can say I can tell you've been a good admin, I feel that you should wait a while to, well, mature. While your edits and contributions may say you're qualified, your actions here and on SFW make me say otherwise. Also, your method of advertising your nomination has been. . . sketchy. While I don't agree with Genesjs on the count of using your own blogs to advertise this (Which I honestly believe is fine as long as you don't put any bias into it), however you asked me in recent times to advertise your nomination, which is something I believe is kind of rude to do considering my current nomination. Also, your responses to the above 'No' votes have been. . . well, kindof harsh. All I'm saying is that you should probably wait, and try again later with a bit more civility. AdmiralLevi.Signiture_B.gifAdmiralLevi._Salute_B.gif 15:44, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

I apologize for the implied rudeness then; I just figured I could rely on you to help me out, that's all. And the only person I was anywhere near harsh to was 58, who used instances that have nothing to do with adminship at all and small parts of the whole story as reasons I shouldn't be a 'crat. 58's talked about me behind my back and criticized me behind my back, rather than coming to me directly, and now claims that I'm being rude, lazy, and biased, while using above incidents. Obviously I would be rather ticked off about that.--Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 16:02, February 3, 2011 (UTC)

OBJECTION!

While I agree that the "advertisement" move wasn't the best move, and that his response to 58SD was a bit harsh, there's not enough evidence that makes him not qualified enough for Bureaucracy. However, if there is, I'd very much like to see it.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 01:10, February 4, 2011 (UTC)I'm fairly confident that there's not enough evidence. My vote stays "YES".


 * Akamia, I think you're confused about where the burden of proof lies in this case. We don't have to prove he's not qualified, Kagi has to prove that he is qualified. He hasn't.
 * Kagi, I agree with you that art requests aren't relevant to bureaucracy nominations, but the argument that you'll become more active when you have more responsibility doesn't hold any weight. The wiki is a volunteer organisation - the only responsibilities you have are ones you create yourself by doing particular jobs. If an admin takes on the job of, say, monitoring recent changes for vandalism, then that becomes their responsibility until they decide to stop doing that. Giving you extra powers won't necessarily give you extra responsibility unless you choose to accept it, and therefore it won't give you any incentive to stick around.
 * As to the 'Mult v SSM' incident (which I have no prior knowledge of so this is an honest question), do you think your response was measured and reasonable? Was it necessary to snap at Mult or would a simple "No, we don't block people for their actions on other wikis" have sufficed?
 * And yes, I know exactly how many bureaucrats we've got, thank you. Can you identify any instances in which two bureaucrats have not been sufficient to keep the wiki running smoothly, or any instances in which it would have been useful to have an extra bureaucrat because one of the existing ones wasn't helping or wasn't available? I can't, but if there are any I'd love to know about them. -- Supermorff 17:58, February 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * The fact is that I do fully plan on taking the extra responsibility.
 * If it had been someone who had had no negative history with SSM and thought they were honestly doing the right thing, I would've explained the rules to them, since it would be an honest mistake. However, both Mult and SSM have been very antagonistic to each other, and Mult was clearly only doing something about said actions on a seperate wiki as an excuse to have SSM demoted and banned. For all we know, Mult could have been fully aware about the rule "actions on a different wiki do not effect one's status on this wiki". The fact that Mult attempted to pull such a thing, actually thought I would be dump enough to do it, and took such actions against a friend of mine, all as an excuse to spite said friend, made me furious.
 * Well on SFW, there have been occasions where the number of admins and 'crats have been insufficient. At one point SFW had up to 3 'crats, but they weren't always on to handle things. Two of those admins have left SFW, and with the remaining one living in Australia, he's rarely on during most incidents, especially concerning ones between admins. Now, Shelly is unable to be on very often due to schoolwork and other reasons, and to be honest, I don't always see you on often during the day. While I personally think we have enough admins, when it comes to bureaucracy I figure "best to be overprepared for incidents, rather than underprepared".--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 18:25, February 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * You plan on taking extra responsibility, but why can't you do this right now? What do you plan to take responsibility for that requires bureaucrat privileges?
 * As for your other point, frankly I just disagree. Bureaucracy isn't a day-to-day thing, and the abilities only need to be used rarely. If we haven't had problems in the past I see no reason to think that we'll have problems in the future, and I see no reason to hand out irrevocable powers "just in case". -- Supermorff 19:04, February 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, if there are fights involving or between admins, I'd be able to step in and get them to stop before something happens, like someone trying to block the other person. If an admin goes out of hand, I'd be able to ste them straight and undo whatever they did. I'd also be able to promote people who have gotten the majority votes needed to be promoted to admin/crat, so they don't end up waiting for months like I did. And if an admin abuses their privelages, I'd be able to demote them. Making sure that nothing happens concerning the admins in addition to my current responsibilities as an admin would be more reason to be on often. The reason I haven't is because as of late is because the other admins have been able to take care of anything that comes around before I have a chance to. Since the only real way I can contribute is by undoing vandalism and whatnot, that leaves me with little to do on the wiki. On top of that, most of the time when I'm checkin on SNN, it seems that absolutely nothing is happening. So, I usually ended up spending time on other sites that seemed to have more activity and/or needed more help.
 * shrugs* As time goes on, new admins and Users will come around, and some of said admins may end up needing to be taken care of.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 19:18, February 5, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, funnily enough I already know exactly what you'll be able to do with bureaucrat powers. That's exactly why I don't feel it's appropriate to give them to you. And the argument that there may possibly be issues in future that will require your attention doesn't convince me in the slightest. -- Supermorff 21:16, February 12, 2011 (UTC)

YES This wiki is low on Bureaucracy. I can't think of any other user that deserves to be a Bureaucrat more than Kagi (aside from those who are already Bureaucrats of course). I believe he will use his privileges responsibly. Sonictoast 17:01, February 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Is it low on Bureaucracy? Honestly, I'm asking. I mean, I also work over at Marvel Database from time to time. They only have two bureaucrats. They also get about five times more edits than we do in a day, and have about 20 times as many pages. Wookieepedia is a bit larger still, and they have 5 bureaucrats. These are really well-run sites, and don't seem to have suffered for any lack of Bureaucracy. -- Supermorff 21:02, February 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Not gonna argue, but sticking with my vote.Sonictoast 22:23, February 19, 2011 (UTC)

I'm probably wrong, but isn't the only difference between admins and 'crats the ability to change user rights?  Myself <font color="Black">123  16:51, February 20, 2011 (UTC)

 * Yep. -- Supermorff 16:59, February 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Again, we are not low on bureaucrats. We have as many as the Marvel Database, which is vastly bigger than this wiki. How many 'crats do you think we should have? -- Supermorff 21:54, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

No: (Look, I'm just going to simplify my reasons for casting my vote, because I just ended up erasing everything I was going to say originally, and because of that I'm really pissed off right now. I'll make this short and sweet) I think that you have plenty of experience Kag, but some recent behaviors still leave me questioning whether ot not you're mature enough to handle a position such as this, while they also make me think that you still haven't matured in some areas which were also part of the many causes of various incidents that occured in the past between you, me and Users (even though most of these incidents occured off site). I also think that the way you handled certain incidents with other Users in the past on this site were questionable at best. Like Supermorff said, you could've handled Multiverseman in a more professional manner by simply saying something like, "sorry, I can't ban SSM because the offenses you say he's commiting are or have occured off with Wiki, and is therefore out of my jurisdiction". I would go into more detail on why I'm voting no, but like I said, something happened that made me lose all I was going to say originally, and I don't have the time or the patience right now to retype everything again. And I certainly hope my vote won't destroy any good relations we might still have wih one another Kag, because all I am trying to do is point out some flaws I think you still have so you can improve on them and make yourself a better canidate for Bureaucracy in the future.

 * And if this was a majority vote that would be enough, but this is to establish community consensus and I don't think it's been established here. For bureaucrat especially, it needs to be very clear that the community is in favour, and a +1 net value isn't sufficiently compelling. Feel free to try and drum up more support, but I'm not going to make you a bureaucrat based on the current comments. -- Supermorff 19:47, March 22, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I would like to point out that one of the main reasons against me getting bureaucracy is no longer valid. I have been much more active in my activities on this wiki; prior to the nomination and my drop in activity, I was only had the third highest editcount, which in time came to be fourth. However since then, I have been able to bring that number up, doing so by categorizing images, and removing broken link templates via Special:WantedTemplates. Editcount alone does not determine nor have any immediate impact on one's qualification as admin or 'crat, but in this case it does reflect my activity.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 15:52, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

Yes. I don't know if my other vote counted or was seen but Yes. I honestly think that Kagi deserves it. However, we are not low on"'crats" either. One more would be fine and a nice place for Kagimizu be. It is revokable, so if we do decide to not make him a bureaucrat, it won't make a significant difference. But I do agree with Supermorff about how we aren't low on 'crats.  Hey! Bullet!  The Easter Bunny is Here! 02:04, April 11, 2011 (UTC)

I'd be honest No. I don't see the point of just being a higher level in adminship. Kag your a good admin, but is it really useful to be a higher level? You have powerful reasons to back you up. I would originaly say yes but it just doesn't seem useful. I've seen you on this wiki your out for most of the day you spend some time on SFW and most on Xat, but even before xat most of what you did was just talk to Sonicrox14 or stop vandals. I respect you but I just don't think you should be a 'crat yet. Gravity Guy  Ult 17:27, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

@ The people who said No, Well, you have to take into place that Kagi was originally supposed to be an 'crat, but he gave it to Sonicrox14 instead of for himself. Everybody agreed to it, but Kagi preferred that Shelly should be it. And it was Fairfieldfencer who wanted Kags to be an 'crat.-- Hey! Bullet!  The Easter Bunny is Here! 19:06, April 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, things might have gone differently, but that's not relevant to the current situation. At the same time, FFF made Launchballer an admin, which was widely considered a bad decision and subsequently reversed by Shelly. -- Supermorff 22:50, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

 * Yes! - In the past 2 years I've known Kagimizu, he has had both his good points and his quirks (for example, being overly-protective of his friends to the point of losing his temper; hearing one side of a two-way story and then reaching his own verdict; being egregiously stubborn; but I digress) but despite all this, he has been a faithful user, making good contributions, helping users on the site, taking care of the main page each month, deflecting each bullet fired by iLike (and we've ALL tried, but we can't keep up w/ him sometimes). And about a year and a half ago, he was nominated for beaurecracy, but instead, he gave it to someone who pretty much sproved themselves unworthy of the title...moi. But now I want to make sure he gets that promotion, as it is well-dserved indeed. -- Shelly ' the ' Hedgehog Amy to Shelly.png I'm not a monkey! 15:25, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

No, you misunderstand. That's only a part of why I want him to be beaurecrat. He does a good job around here! And no, we need more than on 'crat, more than one sysop, more than one rollback. Just like we need more than one user. -- Shelly ' the ' Hedgehog  I'm not a monkey! 17:08, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

I am not saying that is a bad thing, Shelly. Unless there is some bureaucrat work that remains undone I would still vote no. I think one crat is enough but we even have two, despite this site is not a very big site. We need more users not admins. I am not trying to change your vote. Just raising my voice.--58SlugDrones! 17:14, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

''' Yes Kagi deserves this. He has been a great help. He is one of the best admins I know. To me, he is our greatest protection from iLike. I see nobody but Kagi blocking iLike. Also, to me, he is our greatest protection from vandals since SSM lost activeness. When I see a blocked vandal, the vandal is ussually blocked by Kagi. Kagi has been using his admin powers correctly and carefully, and does not fool around and be silly with his powers. And I know he will use his `crat powers correctly. Wish you the best of luck, Kagi. -- Jet50'''

=== A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) (Adminship)===

I'd like to nominate myself for Adminship for the following reasons...


 * It would be beneficial for the wiki to have another eye in the sky. As any admin could do, I could spot vandalized or fake pages and rid the wiki of this injustice.


 * With my investigative skills (even if it doesn't take much), I can find out who made/edited said pages, and explain why what they did was wrong.


 * I'll ban on a "chance system" of sorts; I'll give users a maximum of 3 chances to cease fire, depending on the offense.


 * I'm going into mediation training (before training as a lawyer for my local Youth Court), so I will be able to neutrally settle disputes between users who might be arguing. This skill may prove useful on the field. And admin powers could end up being neccessary in case things get too out of hand.


 * I am going to become a prosecutor, and I find the skills of one to be of use here.

Please consider these points before voting:


 * Edit count: I don't want anyone talking about this. How many edits someone makes is irrelevant to the case.


 * Mainspace: I realize how I haven't been doing much mainspace editing lately. But that has no bearing here; Whatever is in the mainspace right now (except in the case of glaringly incorrect information) is all that I know about Sonic at the moment. I try to find new info, but I'm much too slow to add anything I think is new. Please, leave this out of your arguments.


 * Friendship/Enemity: This is mostly talking to my closer friends on the wiki, also serving as a reminder to the more professional of them. Please, leave personal feelings as my friend (or otherwise...) out of your arguments. What matters is deciding if I am truly worthy of adminship. Friend or foe relations don't shift tectonic plates, if you know what I mean.


 * Grammar: Of course I'm not perfect, but then again, who is? If you want to hear it from me, I think my grammar is sufficient enough for the standards of the administration. But that's for the administration itself to decide, not me. At any rate, please leave this point alone.

I'm here to learn about Sonic, and to serve others who wish to do the same thing. This is my nomination. Voters, I ask just one thing of you: Make it count.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 02:04, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes: Akamia is a very good admin candidate. When I was a nominee myself, Akamia was considered well-deserving of the rank, but his time constraints didn't allow for it. He has a spotless record for activity and User interaction, with zero complaints or warnings against him. I fully believe he deserves adminship.--<font color="#0000FF">Kagi <font color="#FF0000">mizu -<font color="#008000">Seeya <font color="#FFA500">'round 02:12, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Original: Neutral- Meh. I don't know much about you but from what i've heard, your a good candidate but i want to see more of what you can do to make it a yes. JaketheHedgehog 04:26, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Response: "More of what [Akamia] can do" meaning what? It's a rather broad category, this "what I can do" stuff.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 04:31, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

I mean what you can do and have been doing for the community as a rollback. I'm not very familiar with your edits on the wiki. I've only seen you on blogs. JaketheHedgehog 04:37, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Well, I have made a few "arrests" on the vandal known as "iLike" (a nickname I thought up myself, but recently this very vandal has been known as "Japulley", I think). I have been fighting that guy's foolery for quite awhile. Now that he's out of commission again, and doesn't seem to be coming back, I don't really know what to do with myself. Heh. But anyway, recently, I warned a user who was fooling around with the Sonic infobox, trying to replace his current picture with one of him from Sonic Heroes. He stopped after I did so. Just now, someone else was trying to do something similar to Knuckles' infobox, except it was Knuckles' 2006 art. I reverted the edit, but I think a warning may be in order...-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 04:44, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes- Now that you mention that stuff, i think i'm a little more familiar with your work. I think you deserve it. (P.S. I'm running for rollback, could you vote please?) JaketheHedgehog 04:49, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, that revert I just told you about was done by Sonic100jam. I thought I did it, though, but it seems he beat me to the punch. Heh. But sure, I'll vote.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 04:52, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes- You're a great editor, you help out a lot with the troublesome users situation and you are dilligent in your work. You have a clean record for editing and with your social benefits, and on top of this I know you well outside of SNN. This vote is hardly out of friendship, Akaimia is truely deserving of the position. The only thing I worry about is his edit count, but that simply pales in comparison to his actual edits and interactions. -- 13:50, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes:I haven't been seeing what you've been doing(sometimes), but I've read what you said about yourself. So, it's a yes. I've seen you deal with vandals, and you have the required amount of edits. Also your mainspace edits are great, so, yes. You are just perfect to become an admin. -- I Pity The Fool. - Mr.T 15:52, March 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes: Akamia, you absolutely deserve it, vandals and more, you've been a major help.

 Bullet Francisco ''' Don't be a jerk to the Bullet! '20:41, March 11, 2011 (UTC)''

This makes 5 Yes and 0 No, thus far.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 02:45, March 16, 2011 (UTC)

I am becoming more active as I go. I have been out for a very long time, yes, but I am quickly regaining my active state. In fact, I feel completely active now. I try to make a useful edit at least once a day, except when I feel there is nothing I can do at that time. Any instances in which I would have used admin privileges would include deletion of pages that are marked as such, except when validity of said markings are questionable or the page doesn't need deletion/is fanon and can be moved to the creator's userspace. The latter would be my action if said creator is in a registered account. Also, as I said in my nomination, I will ban on a "chance" system. This system takes care of repeat offenders/vandals. An insta-ban, if the offense is particularly offensive.
 * Maybe - I think you've got the skills, but I'm not sure you're active enough. Are there any instances in which you would have used admin privileges if you'd had them? Also, I'd like to hear the opinions of some other long-standing editors before making a final decision. -- Supermorff 19:40, March 22, 2011 (UTC)

Let me elaborate: Person "O" (offender) says something very evil and personally offensive to you (I'll spare everyone any details). If I see that s/he has done that, I will block "O" for offensive behavior and harrassment, assuming that you (or anyone else) haven't done it first. How long it will last depends on the situation.

I would have used my powers to aid in the stopping of "iLike"/"Japulley". I have tried to talk this user out of causing trouble, but failed. As far as I am aware, his movements have been put on ice. But that doesn't mean that there aren't still troublemakers, but this is something everyone is aware of, I believe.

I have no objections to hearing from some of the senior editors. I'm actually curious as to what they might have to say. Not to mention that some of them might not know me, so I won't have to worry about votes based on friend/foe relations from them.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 01:55, March 23, 2011 (UTC) Maybe-I'm not sure, you're a good user, but I'm not sure if we need more admins, if more people say yes, then consider my vote as such.

I also did my research and saw Genesjs made a good point about the admin numbers a few months ago. -- Hey! Bullet!  The Easter Bunny is Here! 23:12, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Genesjs (Adminship)
I fully believe that Genesjs has earned adminship. He has been here for nearly 2 years and his contributions are absolutely incredible. He helps out on a regular basis and deals with a large amount of vandals. His edit count is significant enough for adminship. He also has a good tendency to make the right decisions when it comes to dealing with vandals. He has the 10th most edits on the wiki and absolutely deserves the title of adminship. He has great grammar and helps categorize images and reverts edits by vandals. For all these reasons and more, I nominate Genesjs for Adminship.

Yes: I've known him to have a large and positive impact on the wiki ever since i've been here. JaketheHedgehog 02:00, April 13, 2011 (UTC)

Yes: I concur on these points. Although the edit count is irrelevant, I agree that he does indeed help out on a regular basis. And I have seen his work, dealing with vandals.

He does show kindness and patience towards other users, but is usually quite firm at the same time, and I think those are the best points towards being an Administrator.

Well I would like you to be an admin, but I'm thinking that the number of admins it too much. But I guess I will stick with Yes. I guess quoting Jake "The more admins, a safer wiki."

The Easter Bunny is Here! 00:02, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with you on the number of Admins thing, but hopefully after me and Akamia's elections we won't need anymore for a while. And if it helps you feel more certain, I actually plan on doing my regular edits while handling Administrative work (should I earn it), and I plan on editing almost every day when I can like how I have been doing as of late. I have no intention of letting any new responsibilities that are bestowed upon me interfere with my ability to work on other things around here.

 * Yes: First of all, I don't appreciate admins who manipulate others into changing their vote, rather than coming out of their shell and just giving their OWN opinion. 58, I'm talking to you. If you have something to say, say it in your OWN vote, not someone else's. That is abuse of power. Secondly, since the day he showed up here, Genesjs has tried hard to do nothing but help this place out! He busted his a** trying to upload all that info about the Archie Sonic comics, and to this day, is still looking for something to be taken care of here! Anyone who says no, look at the guy!

No: Unless there is any admin work that remains undone I will not agree with anyone's adminship. I see a good future for you. By future I mean not now. I see that everybody wants to be an admin, time by time someone has to show up, by the end of the day we will get everybody having the status of an admin. Normally, yes you are active. By seeing it I do not see a difference if your adminship is granted now, the only difference is that we will be loaded with admins. But I believe you have the most chances of being an admin, perhaps. But I still vote no.--58SlugDrones! 16:32, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Wouldn't it be a GOOD thing to have lots of admins, as long as they're responsible and cooperative? -- Shelly ' the ' Hedgehog  I'm not a monkey! 17:11, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

Maybe: You are just not ready yet. The way you deal with some vandals is mean and that's not the way to do it. Like you dealed with User:9551. You were very mean to him, you told the people who were taking his side to "shut up", and when Murph said he can edit, you said to him "what the hell are you doing". But at least you are still dealing with the vandals. Just lower the harshness. Also, I like your mainspace edits, they are very useful. But, do we need more admins? We have 19 admins, and most of them are active. If we have too many admins, when offenders, vandals and bad users come to this wiki, they will look at the list of admins, and it is too big, then they will leave the wiki because there are too many admins. If this happens with every bad user, what's the point in admins? There are a few problems you need to fix up. You will probabaly be ready in a month. -- I Pity The Fool. - Mr.T 22:51, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

@Jet Actually, most vandals don't come here and look at the admins. There will still be a lot of vandals to deal with, as well as locking pages, blocking users, deleting pages. and other responsibilities, the more admins, the safer the wiki will be. -- Hey! Bullet!  The Easter Bunny is Here! 22:58, April 19, 2011 (UTC)

@Jet50: First of all Jet, I never told anyone to "shut up" when they were taking iLike's side. I told them they were being foolish because they were easily trusting a person who has a seriously bad reputation on this Wiki due to his Trolling and vandalising nature. And as for me asking Murphy "what the hell he was doing", I was doing just that. Asking him what the hell he was doing let a well-known vandal walk free among the Wiki when he should've banned him as soon as he appeared, and because of that the Wiki was put at risk. I only acted the way I did because I did not understand why someone, even an Admin, would let someone who's been known to cause nothing but trouble run amok on the site just because this same person claims that he's "changed". That's what he said the last time he got back on here, but his contributions said otherwise. And while there may be around 19 Admins total, how often are most of them active?

"If we have too many admins, when offenders, vandals and bad users come to this wiki, they will look at the list of admins, and it is too big, then they will leave the wiki because there are too many admins. If this happens with every bad user, what's the point in admins?"

There is more to Administrative work than you're giving credit for at the moment. Admins deal with more than just vandals, which is also technically every responsible Users' job aroud here, especially if they're regular contributers. Admins settle edit wars, merge debates, enforce good behavior from Users on the Wiki in order to keep a friendly atmosphere, discuss site matters such as rule proposals, content management, etc. There are plenty of things Admins can do besides dealing with a couple of people who decide to go around attempting to ruin pages, so even if we don't get any more "bad Users" Admins will ultimately still have things to do, myself included should I have Administrative privileges given to me.

I fail to see why it even should, because technically I was only criticizing the people who were siding with iLike because they were refusing to do their job in banning him and trusting him despite his infamous reputation. From my POV, all I was doing was trying to reason with people and only got harsh when they weren't listening and putting the Wiki at risk. Last time I checked, a person who's been permanently banned and sockpuppets needs to be banned no matter what, but if I'm wrong than the criticism in Jet's vote is well deserved. However, IDT I'm wrong. Phoenix the Cat The flames reborn....  05:04, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

Relax, my friend. I think you were in the right. But I see clearly why it was brought up here; The harshness itself. No matter how one tries to justify something, most people try to poke holes in it. It is going to happen.-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 05:09, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

The whole reason why I acted harsh was because I was certain that the people in question who was dealing with iLike during this incident knew about him and his reputation, and from what I could see they did. So seeing them let him go regardless of this knowledge is what set me off, because it's well known that iLike is a serious liar and it was shocking to me to see even an Admin set him lose when he should've banned him. I even went to the trouble to tell these people why I was getting angry with them over this, so it's not like I didn't just go off at them without trying to tell them what I thought they were doing wrong, I was trying to make them listen to common sense not as a fellow User but as a friend and acquiantence. I'm normally much better at keeping my cool than that though, and I'll admit that maybe I did acted a little too harsh, but I had good faith and that's the argument I plan on sticking by. However, it's not like I don't learn from my mistakes either, so the chances of me losing my cool like that are very unlikely to happen again.

Very well. But you don't have to justify it to me. I already know what it was all about. I was there. :P-- A k  a  m  i  a ( Talk )( Want to see what I've been doing? ) 05:26, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

I know, but I'm doing so for everyone else who's watching this nomination so they can get a better idea as to what the situation was about and my motivations during it. Besides, like I said, I normally don't lose my temper easily, so chances are I won't snap that easily again anyway. Phoenix the Cat The flames reborn....  05:29, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

@Jet: I don't remember Gen saying "What the hell are you doing" I remember he was upset, but he never said that -- '<font color="Crimson">Murphyshane - <font color="#00b6ee">Morph! He's alive! <font color="#C0C0C0">Don't click here '13:07, April 20, 2011 (UTC)

Alter the Wolf <font color="#8A2BE2">Protector of Chaos  (Rollback)
I nominate myself for rollback position for the following reasons:

I am experienced: I have been a member of this wiki for almost a year now, and I have learned a lot about editing pages and properly setting up an article. An example of my work is the Lee Brotherton page. I completely updated that page all by myself and still to this day keep it updated with all of his latest albums, gigs, and events, which has inspired me to create the Bentley Jones Wiki, where I can truly put the knowledge that I gained here to the test. I am also helping out at multiple other wikis, but I am usually found here the most.

I am ALWAYS on here: Even if you don't see me editing, I am literally always on here (aside from when I'm at school or sleeping) monitoring, contributing, and doing my absolute best to keep SNN safe from vandals. If I get a message on my talk page while I am away, I am able to respond very quickly because my iPod alerts me immediately every time my talk page and any other page I'm following is edited, giving me a true connection to this wiki that will not alter. With a connection like this, I am truly beneficial to this wiki.

I am very friendly and will help anyone in need without question: I'm not going to lie to you, when I first joined SNN, I was very distant from everyone and preferred to just focus on improving SNN. That all changed after I met Amyroselove. She became my first friend on this wiki, and she may not know this but she also helped me to open up a bit. Because of her, I began to meet many people on here and some even came to me for help such as Spanishechidna, Goldenguy511, and Syber The Hedgehog, to name a few.

Yes!: DarkFuture definitely deserves this position. He has drastically improved the music pages on the wiki and i have seen all of his work. I truly believe he is ready for Rollback. JaketheHedgehog 16:43, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Yes. Though he has had his share of mistakes, many of his edit benefit the wiki, he has about 600 mainspace edits, that is more than enough for him to become a rollback. He deserves the position.--<font color="Purple">Bullet Francisco <font color="Green">Don't Be a Jerk to the Bullet! 16:48, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks you guys! Alter the Wolf  <font color="#8A2BE2">Protector of Chaos   16:51, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

YES. DarkFuture definately desrves this position. He has always been there for this wiki, helping to stop vandals, and correcting mistakes made on the pages. Sure, he has made mistakes from time to time, but don't we all? He definately is in deserving of this promotion. Syber The Hedgehog 17:04, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

'YES. 'Only if he slaps himself.Nah im joking,but yes Alter deserves the spot.He is always on,he's always dong his best,and he also has delt with some vandals in the past months!

Does Fly's vote count? --<font color="Purple">Bullet Francisco <font color="Green">Don't Be a Jerk to the Bullet!  23:09, May 1, 2011 (UTC)

Yes: Dark Future definitely deserves this position! he is a pro at editing. he is Awesome at stoping vandals. he knows A LOT about Lee Brotherton! I remember before I was a member of this Wiki or any Wiki (I used this Wiki for drawing Sonic the Hedgehog Characters on Sketch Star.) I seen him editing Lee Brotherton page a lot and editing other pages. he is also Awesome to talk to. he is a very Funny, friendly, nice, kind, & AWESOME person! and he is my best friend! ^_^ (Amyroselove 04:14, May 2, 2011 (UTC))

The first sentence was a good reason, but I don't think him being funny or knowing anything about Lee has anything to do with being a rollback. XD --<font color="Purple">Bullet Francisco <font color="Green">Don't Be a Jerk to the Bullet!  19:23, May 2, 2011 (UTC)
