Yes, not too long ago. How I will deal with them is to seek the aid of other more experienced admininstrators in difficult cases. I'd like to be mentored by an experienced admin.

[edit]- Oppose, lack of experience. Only 6 mainspace edits. Wizardman 03:07, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for wanting to serve the community, it is greatly appreciated. But with only 168 edits and a little over 1 month of editing you have not demonstrated a clear understanding of wikipedia policies. Gain more admin related experience in areas such as WP:AFD, WP:ANI, WP:UAA, WP:AIV, and read up on WP:ADMIN. Best of luck, Tiptoety talk 03:08, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose. I see that you intend to be a productive editor, and I applaud your enthusiasm, but I don't think you quite have the experience I generally look for in a successful candidate. You indicate that you would like to be mentored by an experienced admin, and that would be a great first step - perhaps, once you've edited in a productive manner for a few months, admin coaching would be in order.

- Oppose – I would ask that you come back in 6 months. With less than 30 days involvement with the project, you only have your little toe wet, lets see if you still want the extra buttons after you are dunked a few times. Best of luck to you. ShoesssS Talk 03:11, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose as neither enough time nor edits, make a thousand edits, half to the mainspace and come back when you have been here 3 months. Also you do not need admin tools to make minor grammatical corrections and arguably its not necessary for anti-vandalism work either. Thanks, SqueakBox 03:15, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Per lack of experience and this comment that indicates past behavior issues [1]. MBisanz talk 03:36, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Come back in 6 months. You need experience in making mainspace edits, dealing with conflict, wikipedia policy etc. Thanks. Five Years 03:48, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose - Experience. Suggest a close per WP:SNOW. Try WP:ADMINCOACH and WP:ER. Cheers! Wisdom89 (T / C) 03:53, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose Roughly no experience with editing the encyclopedia, let alone admin-related areas. Enigma message Review 03:58, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Opppose - at least six months. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 03:59, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
