Oppose
[edit]- Thank you for submitting your RFA. While I applaud enthusiasm, I'm afraid you do not yet possess sufficient knowledge and experience for the community to have confidence in your readiness to become an admin. But that does not mean that we will never have confidence in you.
- For the most part, it requires at least 3,000 edits in a variety of areas to learn policy and guidelines well enough to attempt adminship. Nominees need to show the ability to contribute a number of significant edits to build the encyclopedia.
- However, if you work on vandalism patrol, most people would like a few thousand more.
- The Admin tools allow the user to block and unblock other editors, delete and undelete pages and protect and unprotect pages. Nominees will therefore do well to gain experience and familiarity with such areas as WP:AIV, WP:AFD, WP:CSD, Wikipedia:Protection policy, and WP:BLOCK to learn when to do these things.
- As an admin, you will inevitably have to...
- Explain clearly the reasons for one's decisions.
- Review one's decisions and change one's mind when it is reasonable to do so.
- Review one's decisions and stand firm when it is reasonable to do so
- Negotiate a compromise.
- Admins need a familiarity with dispute resolution. The ability to communicate clearly is essential.
- Article building is the raison d'être of Wikipedia. I recommend significant participation in WP:GA or WP:FA as the surest way to gain article building experience.
- If you are not the type of person who likes to write content, there's plenty of other article work you can do (WikiGnomeing for start).
- My suggestion would be to withdraw and try again in another 3 months and 3,000 edits. Many nominees have found it helpful to submit an Editor Review or to receive Admin coaching before submitting their RfA and after passing that benchmark. Hope this helps. Good luck and happy editing.

- Oppose Normally I consider edit count irrelevant, but in your case you have far too few to even make an approximation of your abilities. Furthermore (this may seem a bit odd) I am hesitant because of your lack of conflict with other editors. While it's always good to avoid unnecessary argumentation, any bold editor will sooner than later butt heads with a fellow Wikipedian. This lack of conflict leaves me inclined to think that you're unwilling to make controversial edits. Angrysockhop (and a happy new year) 00:37, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
