Requests for adminship
RfA
) is the process by which the Wikipedia community decides who will become
administrators
(also known as admins or sysops), who are users with access to additional technical features that aid in
maintenance
. A user either submits his/her own request for adminship (a self-nomination) or is nominated by another user. Please be familiar with the
administrators' reading list
how-to guide
, and
guide to requests for adminship
before submitting your request.

Administrator status is granted to known and trusted members of the community who are familiar with Wikipedia policies. Administrators have no special authority on Wikipedia, but are held to higher standards, because they are perceived by many, particularly new, users as the official face of Wikipedia. Therefore they should take care to be courteous, and exercise good judgment and patience in dealing with other users. Nominees should have been on Wikipedia long enough for people to see whether they have these qualities. Most new administrators have over three months of participation and over 1000 edits. You may nominate yourself, but it is advisable to exceed usual expectations before doing so.
Nominations remain for seven days so the community can vote and comment on the nomination. Bureaucrats may extend this when consensus is unclear (because consensus is subjective, bureaucrats have some discretion, but the threshold on this page is roughly 80% support). Nominations which are clearly not going to gain sufficient support may be removed earlier to prevent discussions that generate ill will; however, as most editors don't visit Wikipedia daily, a reasonable amount of time should be allowed. Some people oppose early removal under any circumstances. If your nomination is rejected, please wait a reasonable period of time before applying again (at least one month is generally expected).
To add your vote, edit the section for that candidate. You may add a short comment to your vote, but discussion and responses to other comments belong in the
Comments
section below every nomination. When voting,
please update the vote tally of the nomination that you are voting in
. The vote tally format is as follows: (Support/Oppose/Neutral).
Anonymous users cannot be nominated, nominate others, or vote. They are allowed to comment.

Hogweard
adihtan fruman
As said by
Fr33kman
, I think it good to have two admins at least. I would like to nominate Hogweard as a natural second candidate. Among other things, here are some points to him:
Hogweard has a long, regular, and steady history on here.
Hogweard has made over 3,000 edits, with valuable contributions to a wide variety of topics (geography one of the foremost among them).
Hogweard is quite a balancing force in the area of language politics/policy/philosophy.
Hogweard is an active corrector of many more minor things often taken for granted, such as grammar and typos.

I would like to nominate Espreon for adminship. He is one of the most active users and has proposed many pages for deletion. His work as a temporary sysop on ang.wiktionary has been great, and I think angwiki would similarly benefit from his adminship here.

Successful
: On such a small wiki, I think that the time I've allotted to this RFA was enough for the 3-4 active users here to either support or raise a concern. Therefore, I've closed this as successful and will alert the stewards so they can make the final decision and promotion.

Wōdenhelm contacted me the other day after noticing that I am a global sysop. He emailed me asking if I could make him an admin here. I informed him stewards would need to do that and it'd need to be based on community consensus. You currently have two admins neither of whom has made an edit since the later part of 2009. Since Wōdenhelm has indicated he would like to be a sysop here, and since he is active, I'd recommend you consider whether or not you'd like to have him as a sysop. I'd also encourage one or two others to run for sysop at the same time, and to discuss desysopping the two inactive admins. Thank you for allowing me to intrude on your wiki!

Nomination comments from last time
I would like to go up for Administration status because of my passion for this Wikipedia project and for my contributions. I will list my reasons below:
My personal passion and dedication to the project.
My numerous contributions to the project, of various topics.
Continual revisions of various project pages, with respect to their length and content.
Creating nearly word-for-word translations, to make pages of equal quality to their Modern English counterparts.
I check Recent Changes every single day, to monitor for quality edits, and to be on the lookout for vandalism.
My creations of several categories, and linking them into a proper hierarchy of categories and sub-categories.
I would like to thank everyone who views this and votes.

Self nominations for
adminship
adihtan fruman
Self-nominators, please review
the qualifications above. Some editors feel that self-nominees should "exceed the usual guidelines by a good measure," have an account name that is
many
months old and have
many
hundreds of edits. This is not to say that self-nominators are necessarily any less qualified than "sponsored" nominations; however, some editors use their knowledge of the nominator as a "jumping off" point for considering nominees. Most voters can be presumed to consider all nominees on their own merits, and there are even a few who look with special favor on self-nominations as expressing a suitable independence. A good solid background is equally important for both kinds of nomination.

The only possible bone I'd have to pick with this decision is the occasional deletion of user pages, which I don't think should ever happen. There was a strange fellow that was rambling about Taylor Swift and an Islamic regime on his page, and that got deleted some time ago, although there was no real attack on anyone, or anything, the reason for deletion given as "vandalisation" or something. I don't think you can really "vandalise" your own user page, so there's no need for that. However, that's nothing compared to the quality of his work, like what Wodenhelm said.
