Sonic News Network:Requests for User Rights/Shadowunleashed13 (Administrator)

{{Closed|Shadowunleashed13 was promoted to Administrator on 30 May 2013.|archive= Shadowunleashed13 (Administrator) Shadowunleashed13 (talk): Contributions Edit Count

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

I nominate Shadowunleashed13 for administrator. Out of all our current users, he could arguably benefit from the rights the most. He is always on constant watch over the wiki. He operates a bot that could be put to good use for administrative work. He patrols the wiki, and makes good use of his rollback tool. While he isn't a chat moderator, I feel he doesn't need to be. He has proven himself more than capable of the position multiple times. His contributions to the wiki are very significant, and he is always offering his feedback and assistance on site discussions, whether it be just by giving his opinion, or helping make such change to the wiki. He is mature and competent, and he has grown a lot as a user on the Sonic News Network.

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. Shadowunleashed would help with the current administrative work and use the administrative rights to help him do everything he couldn't before. I am pleased to nominate this user for administrator. --{{User:Bullet Francisco/Signature}} 20:31, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * I accept this nomination. I believe I am ready, but it's your opinions that matter here. -- Shadowunleashed13 (talk) 21:45, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) As the poster. -- 20:31, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 2) YES! He is a very excellent user. He deserves these rights.  20:45, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 3) Shadow is an amazing editor. As with Spyro, I'm quite shocked that he isn't already an administrator. There always seems to be a Shadowunleashed13 in the recent edits list, and with the extra administrative tools this mature user could really kick this wiki into shape. I support.

 * 4) YES!!! For the reasons I stated in his previous nomination. I'm ashamed to have ever opposed before; my ability to think for myself was underdeveloped. You all think I'm a good candidate for adminship? Screw me. Unleashed is the best candidate at the moment. He could well be one of the greatest administrators we ever had. Good luck!! 21:17, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 5) Shadow needs to be an admin more than anyone else right now. 22:49, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 6) Of course! He's a very active editor and I think he is worthy of it. 22:58, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 7) This man has every trait of an admin. I've nothing more to say than "let him have it" -- Murphyshane -  熱! Don't click here   23:26, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 8) I will give a try, as being good consultative person during some modified operations. - MarioSonic (talk) 23:34, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 9) Even though he is not yet a Chat Mod, he is making excellent use of that rollback tool and I beleive that he deserves the rights of Adminship. -- Psyche  the Hedgehog  23:48, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * 10)  21:25, May 18, 2013 (UTC)
 * 11)  17:22, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * 12)  22:06, May 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * 13) Per ALL the people. 03:42, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * 14) He has matured much since his last administration request. I am sure that he will greatly benefit from having the rights of an admin. With these new Sonic games coming soon, we're going to need all the help we can get, and I wouldn't know anyone more fitting for the role. 16:28, May 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * 15) While I did oppose at first, I think I forgot how mature and how much Unleashed has contributed to this wiki. So, I'm changing my vote to support. 21 May 2013 15:18 (UTC)

VOTING IS NOW CLOSED

Oppose

 * 1) While I have no doubts that Shadowunleashed is indeed a good User, I'm afraid that I'm gonna have to place my opposition for his promotion for the following reason: Like some, I strongly believe that if a User hasn't shown that they're capable of being "half-Admins" (using Chat Mod as an example) first, then they shouldn't be made full-Admins. I'd personally need to see/hear Shadowunleashed properly handle being a Chat Mod for at least a few months before I can even consider giving him my support for an Administrative role on this Wiki. I'm sorry, but I stand by my position.  Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  20:53, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Discussion
By the way, if I may veer a little... I just wanted to say that if you wanted to see me become an administrator, you can all forget it. I'm no longer endeavoring to become one. My attitude to this wiki isn't suitable enough. 21:30, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Wow. WOW. I can't believe it. The same user who once considered Unleashed to be too immature for this position, the same user who thought promoting him would end in disaster, is nominating him for administrator. It was one of my lowest expectations... 21:17, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * To be fair, things have changed. xD I've noticed a substantial difference in his behavior recently. -- 21:18, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * That's great to know. This is all so refreshing! I'm so happy! ^_^
 * Confidence, my friend. I still see you as a future administrator prospect. Maybe you'll get nominated one day, too. --
 * Oh, the irony behind this statement. Like this deleted scene from Spider Man 2 Lloyd the Cat  "I don't die. I just go on adventures."  21:26, May 17, 2013 (UTC)
 * Haha. Let's all get back on topic, though. -- 21:37, May 17, 2013 (UTC)

Conclusion
Yes - Consensus is clearly in favor of ShadowUnleashed's promotion to administrator. Congratulations! This discussion will be removed shortly. 17:54, May 30, 2013 (UTC)
