RuneScape:Requests for adminship

This is a page to nominate users for administrative duties.

Archive 1 - Contains nominations of JodoKast, Oddlyoko, Richard1990, Huanghe63, Jard Y Dooku, Couchpotato99, Eucarya,  Hyenaste , Shadowdancer, Avian Maid, Vimescarrot, Megalodon99, Dreadnought

Users in dark red were appointed as bureaucrats. Archive 2 - Contains nominations of Emosworld,Whiplash,Ilyas,Chrislee33, Vimescarrot

Rules

 * Contributors should not nominate themselves for adminship. However, users are welcome to implicitly or explicitly show an interest in becoming an administrator in order to alert other users.
 * To acquire more positive votes, it is best to be requested by a contributor with much experience or an administrator.
 * Contributors should not be nominated simply for having many edits or having been around a while. While these two often factor into successful adminship, these two qualities alone do not make an administrator.
 * In most cases, bureaucrats may only be recommended by other bureaucrats. Because it is good to have a stable amount of active bureaucrats, nominations will be made when one bureaucrat becomes much less active on the Wiki. There are currently 5 bureaucrats and 3 active bureaucrats.
 * Nominations will be held for at least 2 weeks before a final decision is made. If the vote is clearly positive before the two weeks are up, a bureaucrat may make a statement of intent to attract any negative votes.

Guidelines
In order to be considered for sysop rights, you should be doing some or all of the following already as a normal user:
 * Watch Special:Recentchanges and help to revert vandalism even before you're an admin - just because you don't have fast rollback facility doesn't mean you can't change vandalised pages back to what they were before - any "new" pages that you can't delete yourself, just put the little edit at the top - another admin should pick this up in Category:Speedy deletion candidates and follow it up.  This is the primary reason why this wiki needs admins - protection from vandalism and acting as a volunteer to keep this wiki clean, readable, and factually accurate.
 * Create good content - if we don't have content there's no point in anyone using this wiki. Attempting rewrites of large articles will greatly help your chances of being recommended/accepted, as this is more noticable in some ways than lots of minor edits to lots of small articles.  Where the wiki wins over other sites is our ability to get information out fast simply because everyone has editorial control, even unlogged users.  Help write the brand new updates - if someone else is writing the quest guide, make your own notes but start creating the sub-page articles ready to be blue-linked already.  I love creating a quest guide where every time I create a link it's already blue (I experienced this particularly when I wrote the first draft of Darkness of Hallowvale).
 * Be part of the community - Welcome new editors on their talk page and gently guide them in the right direction. Talk to other editors, engage in the forums and generally show your face around! Though the wiki is assuredly not a clan, it is a place that your fellow players gather, treat them as human beings!
 * All decisions should be democratic - regardless of who is suggesting something whether they be normal user/sysop/bureaucrat, all votes should be counted equal. If you are in the minority on an issue over a certain article, be prepared to back down.  Be mature about it.  See Runescape:All editors are equal.

1 - external links are generally ok in the main wiki as long as they're to "reputable" sites, Additionally, anything in your own user page is ok as long as it's not outrageous (porn, personal abuse, etc)

Has been here for a while now, and it seems he has the maturity you need to become a sysop. I think he should be an administrator, even if he isn't here now. I also think it would please him if he came back to find out he became a sysop. Talk-to Cashman286 (Level 38)  21:14, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Support great contributor and active in the community. --Whiplash 22:00, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Cashman, have you gotten consent from Tirrian gant yet? He hasn't been on for a few days, and according to his user page, he won't be back until the 30th. =/ 22:47, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes and I believe he stated he did not want to be for some reason. And it is also not allowed to sysop one without their own approval. 23:15, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Tirrian has only made a bit more than 500 edits. I think that administrators should atleast have 1,000 edits when they get administrated. So I'll change my oppose to a support when Tirrian has made about 500 more edits. 23:31, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Thank you for the consideration, I'm honored that I might be thought of as "Administrator material", but first, do we really need another admin person?  And second, to go along with Chiafriend, I really haven't made a whole lot of edits, especially if you'll notice that the majority of my edits have been on the forums and talk pages rather than the main pages of the Wikia.  So again, thanks for the consideration, but for the moment I have to decline.  I don't mind being nominated, and it's great to see that I'm "respected", so when I finally get enough decent edits, and if we actually need another admin person, I wouldn't mind being nominated again, but until then, no thanks.  (By the way, I'm still gone, I'm just borrowing a computer for the moment) 01:50, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Okay, so I've had my problems. I'd like to appologize. My opinions will not be expressed anymore. But other then that I believe I have worked really hard to help out.. Sure I have made mistakes that had to do with redirecting but I redid the whole emote article, I helped with small and large details and say what I know. As for the Zaros thing... I don't want to be judged on that, I am sorry and the opinions should not be expressed. But if you look throughout how I've done in editing, I think I've done pretty well. But its not my place to decide. Anyway, thank you for even reading this :)  15:06, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Too soon, sorry. You have less than 500 edits. Maybe in 2 months or so. 08:37, 19 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Oops well I didn't know how to check them. But I thought I did more, and probably did.  But I wasn't logged in. Lol.  oh well I can wait.  I got to manage other things anyway at the time... I load up  on too much.  15:24, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

I expect Eucayra is gonna wait for another week coz' I don't have enough supports.


 * Notice of intent: I'll do this on Monday (2nd april) next week unless I can't get on, any objections should be lodged now! --[[Image:Smithingimg.PNG]] Eucarya Talk 08:28, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

Sacre Fi
Final Votes
 * Support - 8
 * Oppose - 0
 * Neutral - 0

Sacre Fi is a hard working member of the community. He has a good way of dealing with vandals, converting them, or just ignoring them and reverting or asking for the "vandal page" to be deleted. He has shown that he deserves this. He is kind to new users and shows them how to do things. He gives them tips. I have a habit of doing these things without informing the nominated person, so I wont forget. Still, he is doing great. He started in December, December 17 I believe.23:39, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Heheh, at least you asked this time. ^_^ Aren't there already quite a few administrators here already? I'd be more than happy to do it, but it's gettin' a bit crowded. Thanks! 23:48, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * And so is the wiki in general!23:50, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, I've thought about it, and there's not much that a sysop can do that I can't beyond blocking... maybe I should withdraw from the nomination? =/ 02:02, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Support From Imperic.! Sacre Fi is a hard worker to the wiki. When I joined he showed me around. xD. He's really nice with new people, I support him every step of the way! Enough Said.
 * So, you decided to come? -.- 02:04, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
 * There is much that a sysop can do, blocking, mediawiki, unprotect and protect, delete and restore, revert more easily. Your choice. But not many people have voted.02:26, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Meh, it's fine being a lowly peon, and I can always pester the sysops if I want something changed. ^_^ Although MediaWiki is tempting... I'll think about it, but I guess I'll still keep this here while thinking. Feel free to vote, I guess. =/ 03:12, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
 * We should wait a few weeks, 2 weeks at the least.03:23, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Support; as I've said before, I'd happily sysop everyone I trust on this wiki. Make it much easily to implement some of our policies. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 11:00, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Support I trust Sacre Fi very much both on the wiki and the game. --Whiplash 11:21, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Support God, I thought you already were a sysop. Well, If you aren't, I think you should be.00:20, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, can I at least pretend to be stricken with peonage? Please? 01:25, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I suppose so. All admin duties are vonluntary. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot  08:14, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, ok, I'll try then, I s'pose. :) 00:22, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Try what? Did I miss something?00:24, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

I know I haven't edited much, but that's because I cant because I don't know enough since I'm a free player. I know this will get nowhere, but Total Rune tried, so I don't see why I shouldn't. I just feel like I could help more as a sysop.00:12, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Unlike Total Rune, you realize that you have to be here longer. But if you know that, why would you nominate yourself? well... Oppose.00:16, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Er... Oppose, sorry. It's just that you've made 52 edits, and 1 to the actual content of the Wiki... I don't know much about members' things either, but there's other websites out there and other pages on the Wiki that could help with gathering information. Maybe you could wait a little longer (2-3 months, maybe less?) and gather up some contributions. At least you attempted, though... :) 00:20, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * God, I feel like an idiot. :(. Anyway...I'm dropping out. Even Total Rune didn't get comments like this so quickly... 00:24, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Spam - 2 <-- Ooo from Dreadnought. And hi.

I've been here for 4 months, made nearly 1,000 edits, plus many people know me in this community and I know many people. I have an extensive ammount of knowledge of how to do stuff when editing to make text be bold, italicized, supifyedTalk 23:39, 30 March 2007 (UTC)p>, subifyed, red, green , blue , etc.. I was getting pictures for the Wiki during the 2/24/07 riot in world 28, I confirmed that Black P Hats don't exist (even though the proof had to be deleted) and I have reverted some vandalisms in order to keep the Wiki tidy. So, should I be an admin, or wait longer? 05:22, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I like your contribions and find them informative and entertaining. As a contributor, i expect an admin to be caring to the community and help with all the subtleties of the wiki. At the same time, an admin should defend the work against abuse. This is a hard balancing act, which requires additional skills you are still developing. What i like to see most in an admin is a view where this wiki needs to go. Will the wiki flourish as a pure information database? What goals should the wiki aim for? Should it be a leading fansite or something else? Your ideas will follow from that vision and that is when contributors will request you to serve them. Until then, please continue your great work as a valued contributor. --Miw 11:51, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Can we put you on hold? I think many of your edits are good ones but also many of those have been to non actual articles, I think you're very trustworthy and I would say support but we're going to nominate Sacre Fi so could you give us some time to get back to you? --Whiplash 12:49, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm not totally convinced - almost all of your edits seem to be in either forum or user space, and most of your main wiki edits seem to be minor. However, we do need someone to watch the forums/are willing to help Whiplash maintain them and do archiving and stuff.  If we get enough votes for you here I'm happy to sysop you and I'll point you in the direction of keeping the forums clean! --[[Image:Smithingimg.PNG]] Eucarya Talk 19:51, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Is this enough support to become a Sysop? If not, how much more support do I need? 05:58, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry to throw it at you, as I think that you deserve this, but nominations must be held for at least 2 weeks before coming to a decision. However, since you seem to be backed up by a lot of people, you will become a sysop, no doubt about that. 13:58, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Yay! Only a few hours 'til I'm a sysop! :D. 21:55, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm just wondering, I haven't gotten a message that I've been sysopifyed, so am I not gonna' be sysopifyed? <:( 00:46, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * You have to wait for a bureaucrat to notice this, approve it & sysop you, then they'll leave a message here and/or on your talk page saying they've done it.  01:49, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, so someone needs to notice. 04:13, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

I always wanted to be a admin but never got the guts to request it, but the day that Total Rune was vandalizing Wiki made me post my name up here. It is ok if you don't support me. I understand. I haven't been here that long anyways. I do think I started somewhere in January or February.00:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Mabey too soon, you haven't made alot of edits but you're not a bad user either, perhaps this is not the time and you should wait a little longer before re-requesting quite like Ilyas did. --Whiplash 00:51, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Yep I knew that was bound to happen. Ok maybe try again in a month or two..or three=)00:52, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * That would be a good idea perhaps then you could become an admin. :) --Whiplash 00:56, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose - A majority of your edits aren't in the article namespace. Those that are, however, look good. Wait for a while yet, and I'll support. 03:36, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Soft oppose - you are not at all a bad editor; you just have very little experience as of yet 02:18, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I belive I should be nominated because I edit alot in wikipedia and not much here..but I shall upload images of new items and ones with no image...and I shall create enemy pages that haven't even been made yet....and I also shall give every slight detail in each....thats why I should be nominated a admin here...I shall update all new items and monsters and upload enemy and item images and make the enemy list complete with no unmade articles of enemies and items!!!!!02:41, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Somewhat Strong Oppose - Three reasons:

I'll support you when you do those things that you say you will do. Good luck on all of that. That may take a while. 02:51, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) you haven't been here long
 * 2) you don't have many contributions
 * 3) this isn't Wikipedia


 * Strong oppose - Wikipedia is Wikipedia. RuneScape Wiki is not Wikipedia.  So what, you have quite a few edits there, they are totally separate and you should contribute more often here first.  You only have one edit in the article namespace.  ONE EDIT.  It doesn't matter what you are going to do, what matters is what you already have done. You've only been here slightly over a week, anyway. Wait another few months, and make some more worthwhile contributions.   03:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose, unfortunately - this seems to be exactly what I'm talking about... I really do think you will know when it is time to become a sysop when someone nominates you first, and that's probably the reason why it's called "nomination." I'm sorry if I make it seem like I'm targeting only you, as this applies to everyone. Also, you can still do all of those things on your list now, and that might get you a nomination when you get enough edits. Good luck when they do nominate you. :) 03:52, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose - you simply haven't been here long enough to be considered. --[[Image:Smithingimg.PNG]] Eucarya Talk 09:09, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Extremely strong OPPOSE - I may seem harsh...but see the following reasons: 00:19, 10 March 2007 (UTC) Extremely strong oppose - You just got here. You say that you will write all of the quests and ncp pages on RuneScape!!! That is an extremely hard job that I would bet all of my money against. You have barely made Any edits! Please wait a few months and put your money where your mouth is.00:44, 10 March 2007 (UTC) Why Id never!!You under estamate me...why i even helped the pirate page and other pages now!How rude of you to judge me so quickly!05:25, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * You have 37 total edits
 * You have ONE main page (article) edit
 * You haven't been here long enough
 * Just because you say you're going to do things doesn't mean you will...writing articles for all the creatures and items in runescape is a huge undertaking that will take you several months
 * Nominating yourself makes you look overly ambitious and somewhat selfish


 * We don't have enough positive things to judge you on.. You helped write a couple pages, good for you. Show us that you deserve to be an admin.  We can't go around sysop'ing everyone, if we did, this Wiki would be hell.  We're not underestimating you, we're giving you the harsh truth.   05:50, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Comment - Sysop powers won't help you in achieving any of the goals you've mentioned. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 08:41, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - The pirate page is one page. And to reply to your comment of my "rudeness", judging you quickly is not what I did. You have only got here, in fact I did not even notice you until now, and you seem to be overly confident in yourself. Please wait. If most of those people up there failed, what is that makes you feel that you are special?19:22, 10 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Oppose. 22:05, 10 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Emosworld 06:45, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose, until you actually get some things done that will help the community out. Being a Sysop really doesn't help your ability to be useful, it just means you have some administrative abilities.  Who's to say you'll use those abilities correctly on RS Wiki?  When you've been here long enough for us to see how you contribute to this community, then you'll certainly be able to get nominated and supported.  20:35, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes, RSWiki is not English wikipedia and just because you edit a lot in the English wiki, doesn't mean you will make useful edits here. It is somewhat pointless to put yourself down as you have less than 100 edits. Maybe less than 50. 06:48, 15 March 2007 (UTC)


 * EXTREMELY STRONG OPPOSE but listen. No offense, but I nominated myself too, I realized the mistake, however you seem to be pushing your luck. Listen.  I wanted to do it to help out.  You just seem to want to be on top.  You gotta start to learn how to indent before you can even do that, I mean you didn't hit enter before you talked to Ilyas.  Please.  Read the style policy, edit, and maybe we'll all change our minds.  And lighten up.  15:49, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi all. I hate nominating myself, but I wanted to make it known that I'd like to have admin rights. I have only been here for a few months, but if you look at my contributions you can see I've already been acting like an admin, only without the shortcuts that an admin would have. Though my mainspace edits are only in the low hundreds, I think you can see that they are high quality and professional.

Before you object to my time on the Wiki or the number of edits I've made, keep in mind that the sysop position isn't a glorified editor position. Users should not be given sysop based on their time here or the number of their edits, but on their proven ability to carry out administrative tasks. That said, I'm open to whatever opinions you may have.

I may note that I'll be on vacation starting Friday, so I may just let responses build up until my return the following Sunday. Don't think I'm ignoring this thread.


 * You've been here a little over a month. I don't even know you lol. 01:29, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for the response...though I don't know what to say other than "ok." As I tried to carefully say in my paragraph above, I'm not seeking this position because I'm chummy with all the other sysops, because I believe that's the type of environment we're trying to avoid, and I'm not seeking this position because I've been here a long time or make major contributions.  Major contributions should have no bearing on your ability to perform administrative duties.  You can continue making major contributions without administrative authority.  The point was, I am seeking admin because I already have been performing administrative duties, and would like to make that easier on myself to do.  Just take a look at my contributions and you can see what I do most on the Wiki.  Hi, I'm Endasil by the way :)

I see the "all editors are equal" policy thrown around quite a bit, and you're definitely better than the random person who wanders in off the internet and goes for an RfA. Going through your contributions, I like what I see. Nearly half (exactly if you round up the percentage) your edits are mainspace, and they are quality edits. Even if this is too soon, or if we've got enough admins for the time being, I think you'd make a good sysop. You've got my support. 04:14, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Not yet - You are a good editor, but you've only been here for a month (or so). In a few months or a couple hundred edits I'll support. 04:20, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Support - Conditions apply - I'm not an advocate for self-nominations... at least you're being bold. :) However, it's been a short while since you've joined (I did, in fact, read the nomination), and you may not have the trust of others to become an administrator... also, unlike me, you actually know what you're talking about. =P I'll support, so long as you pinky promise to use good judgement. *Raises pinky* 05:22, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. I've not checked anything you've done but I'd just like to say, you certainly seem to have the right attitude towards sysop powers. I don't really have time to check what you've done at the moment, sorry - if you bug me in-game I might... JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot  06:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you all for your comments thus far. I respect all of your opinions, and while I've argued that edit count and length of time shouldn't be a factor in whether one becomes a sysop, I do understand that both are essential in becoming trusted by the community. I'd like to shortly share why I am seeking admin powers. I am for the most part seeking just the roll-back capability and the delete page capability, because I often end up reverting vandalism and marking pages for speedy deletions. So, I'm going to leave my nomination open for the next week. As I've said above, I'll be gone for the coming week. Feel free to post your support or criticisms while I'm gone, and again, please don't think I'm ignoring you. I just don't know how many internet cafes I'd be able to hit up while backpacking in Scotland :-).


 * Yes you seem to have the maturity and good intentions that mabey some of our past hopefulls mabey haven't, however you should be here just a bit longer before you get privalleges just to get to know you in the community. ^^ Best of luck. --Whiplash 22:27, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Right now my feeling is "I don't see any reason why not", I'm more than happy to change this to a total support if you can demonstrate that you're brave enough to attempt large articles - part of being a sysop is following the style guide etc, and being able to point other users in the right direction.

 * I'll ask on main wikia forums on what I should do re: bot accounts there to help the wiki. I assume this is to help carry out annoying tasks like categorisation and so on?  Anyway, support.
 * Er, do we actually have any "super protected" pages - ie sysops only? I fairly sure that I've never protected a page like that.  As long as the account has been registered 3 days (or something like that), it should be able to edit every page anyway.  --Eucarya Talk 22:36, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Yes, mediawiki is sysops only, that's true. Will the bot be doing this with that though?  I would honestly be suprised if any pages in the main wiki are blocked from editing by normal users.  Maybe contentious issues like Zezima, but that should just end up being a redirect.  --Eucarya Talk 23:22, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Neautral. Yes, we need a new 'crat, especially if Euc is taking a back seat. And Whiplash is the best man for the job, in my opinion...but...I'm not too keen on his style, no offense. A bit too trigger happy. And just the way he says some things...While I don't really mind as an admin, beauracrats are people who hold can hold some considerable influence. Should be...well-spoken. If there's a word for what I'm trying to describe, I don't know what it is. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 20:36, 20 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Mmm I see... so you're trying to say I could improve on how I react to vandalism and users for example when I say Total Rune *Spits*?

Or are you meaning identifying someone as a vandal and then blocking them without seeing consequences? --Whiplash 20:47, 20 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Vim, I think I know what you're trying to say. You're looking for a high degree of professionalism, which transcends the ability to make the right decisions or have the right intentions--it involves sensitivity to others no matter what the right decision is, and the ability to maintain neutrality and formality of speech when carrying out actions.  It's really comes down to what a bureaucracy is defined as: definition here.  Is Whiplash a really effective admin?  Absolutely, no one has disputed that.  But is a Bureaucrat a unique role, or just the "next step up."  If it's a unique role, than it should have more specific requirements or desired qualities than "a good admin."  That said, I can see that Whiplash is ready to take advice, and that alone makes me say Conditional Support (the condition being the promise to allow others to contribute advice as to how he runs things).

 * I do not mean to oppose, you all know what my vote is, but Wikipedia is about 30-40 times bigger than us. I am aware that Wikipedia is not affiliated with us, bu they are also a wiki! And last time I checked, they had only a few crats. Take this as an example for future references that there are not to be too many crats. But who is to say that just because there are already two active crats, Whiplash does not deserve this? I think another crat would be helpful and Whiplash is just the person. 21:36, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Wait, we have Heyenaste. That will make 4 crats if Whip becomes one. 21:40, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Support Active member, constant checker of Recent Changes, continually reverting vandalism/blocking vandals keep up the good work! Also, as most of the other 'Crats aren't that active (no offense) another one would help. Chaoticar 04:45, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Um.......Ilyas, Wikipedia has several hundred times more articles than us (1,697,189 to 3,264). The reason that Wikipedia only has a few bureaucrats is because the WikiMedia Foundation doesn't trust it's crown jewel to just any contributor. They don't make strangers bureaucrats, although they will make helpful contributors into sysops. In order to be a Wikipedia bureaucrat you have to actually work for the organization. And they have very few paid employees, because almost all the content on Wikipedia is created by contributors. So you can't really compare us to them. As far as our little wiki goes, we should only need 10 bureaucrats by 2008 at our current rate of growth, and maybe 25 sysops. And Whiplash is a good choice to be one. Support. 05:30, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Oppose Don't think you are ready..And...Too many crats. Not very good oppose but whatever.. 01:27, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Comments: Although Whip is an excellent admin, he has been here a relatively short time compared to many other admins that aren't crats. Takes Vimes for example. Vimes has over 5,000 total edits, and 3,000 mainspace article edits. Whip has over 3,000 total edits, and nearly 2,000 mainspace edits. I looked at a few other admins who I feel do a good job and have been here a long time, however time is not the only factor in volume of edits. Huang has a little over 600 total edits and almost 300 article edits, while Avian Main has over 1200 edits with over 800 of those being mainspace edits. This shows that Vimes and Whiplash are among our most active admins, but the bigger question, and the reason for many oppose votes to Whip's nomination, is that it is debated whether we really need another crat. A lot of negative votes in nominations for both sysop and crat gave the reason: we don't need another crat (or admin). This isn't really fair to the one nominated, because they get opposition that isn't based on their contributions or work but just because there's a lot of admins or people don't think we need another. --CRAZY IDEA ALERT!-- I've come up with a sort of election process that would help solve several issues with our adminship system, such as:
 * Rushes of nominations (the adminship fad comes to mind)
 * Many contributors being sysoped within a short amount of time
 * Admins or crats could be elected as needed, and candidates wouldn't receive negative votes because people don't want another admin.

I think (and I'm sure someone will disagree) that people should be able to start a poll when they think that we need another admin or crat. Contributors would be notified with an alert, and voting would take place. Then, if after a week or so the majority rules that another admin or crat is needed, those who are felt to be worthy candidates can be nominated. All nominees would have to agree to being nominated as usual. After another few days (gives some time for nominations), we start another poll, this time the poll is: 'Who do you think should become the new sysop/crat?'. All nominees who agreed are listed, and after another week of voting, we have our new admin/sysop!

Just for fun, not putting the system into effect, but I'll put the poll anyway so Whip can get a feel that he's not getting negative votes because of a fault on his part: Do you think we need another bureaucrat? Yes! Let's open nominations! No. There's too many as it is. The number we have now is just perfect.

The one that is about to get brutally shot down and burned (also can be recognized by his messed up signature) - 00:11, 31 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Correcting my own mistake - Vimes already is a crat. So I think Whip is the best candidate if you guys think we need another crat. I voted yes in the poll, idk who voted that we already have the perfect number though. 00:42, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, polls may not be a good idea for something such as this... sock puppetry could become a major problem. 00:46, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Hmm yeah...=/. Still, we could take a vote just not in the form of a poll. I just was suggesting a system where we only made crats or sysops based on need so we wouldn't have people nominating themselves whenever they felt like it. Anyone like/dislike my idea or have a suggestion? Also, I think we should archive this page soon, it's getting a little long. There's a few votes in progress though, so we can't archive it yet. 02:01, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't see any reason to limit the number of sysops. --Wowbagger421 02:24, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

It's not a limit... basically when someone thinks that there should be another sysop then they start a vote. If other people agree, then people are nominated and voted on, and whoever gets the most votes is made a sysop. It actually makes it easier to become a sysop, because once people agree that another sysop is needed, then whichever candidate gets the most votes will be one. At the same time, no one can be nominated unless it is voted that another sysop is needed. 03:25, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Support Mmm I see... so you're trying to say I could improve on how I react to vandalism and users for example when I say Total Rune *Spits*? <--Excuse you? Oh wait vandalism, okay, I know now. You mean Total Rune before I smacked my idiot brother upside the head. KK. Well Whiplash I haven't been here long, only 2 days since I beat my little bro up, but I'm gonna give you my support. 10:00, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

Sup-port. We need new crat, and who's better to the job? 12:21, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Support. With one crat indicating a significant reduction in the involvement with the wiki, it seems appropriate to add another person to help out. He's got good ideas, is a good contributor and admin, so he's earned the crat title. --Miw 13:47, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Support - Good user, and I see no harm in another bureaucrat. 01:12, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Support - I'm not sure why some people are worried about another bureaucrat; you've earned it. 00:01, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Opp-ose - We have enough b'crats as it is. 06:18, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Too many? Bureaucrats are respected members of the community who we know would use good judgement. Plus, it won't exactly change his administrative duties. The more, the merrier. 07:26, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Administrators are also respected members of the community, and we may get too many b'crats, and eventually have our whole wiki be made up of b'crats. We'd have to say "too many" eventually, so I say "why not now?" 07:31, 13 April 2007 (UTC)~
 * A whole wiki made up of trusted bureaucrats. =D Nominations for bureaucrats don't happen too often... I wouldn't expect another for a while. 07:35, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Wait a minute Chia! How can you be oppose and neutral? And too many crats? Let's count, there are 49 (somehow) active members here, and only 3 of them are active bureaucrats. That makes like 4,5% of members into crats. I don't think we find our wiki filled with crats anytime soon. 20:51, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * For perspective, wikipedia has only 8 active bureaucrats out of over 4 million users. --Wowbagger421 20:56, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

I'd just like to make a point. These are the powers that a bureaucrat has.


 * promote other users to administrator or bureaucrat status;
 * grant and revoke a user's bot status; and
 * rename a user account.

Sysops have powers that are useful to the average user (revert, mediawiki, etc.), but bureaucrat powers really aren't. Giving a trusted user sysop powers can benefit the wiki, but giving a user bureaucrat powers is really just a liability (see User:Shadowdancer}.  I would trust Whiplash as a crat, but he doesn't need those powers.  --Wowbagger421 21:05, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

No referances to Shadowdancer please. --Whiplash 21:07, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry. Like I said, I trust you, but it does show what can happen.  I'm not protesting against you become an a crat (I haven't even voted yet).  I just don't want people to think that once you've been active for long enough you get to become one.  Sysop should be like that, but bureaucrat shouldn't. --Wowbagger421 21:15, 14 April 2007 (UTC)


 * Yes that is understandable. :) --Whiplash 21:17, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Whiplash has shown he deserves this. It is not only that he has been here for a while, but that he is very active, makes very good edits, has a large presence in our community and can be trusted with these powers. What happened with Shadow, however much I may want to avoid that, is probably very rare. I don't think that this has happened, if not 2, more than 5 times EVER on any wiki. Think about it, a sysop abusing their powers and blocking people for random reasons... I don't think Whiplash would do that. My vote remains Support. 23:03, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * What did Shadow even do??? Why has no one told me??? 01:29, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * No one's really told anyone... I found out by doing some digging around. =/ 01:32, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, Sacre, will you be nice enough to tell me? 01:34, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Shadowdancer was a great contributor to our wiki he did much of the earlier editing, however to those of you that remember couchpotato99. Couch engaged Shadowdancer in an edit war on the bolts page eventually this lead to a climax where Shadowdancer banned everyone on the wiki. After this he lost his sysop powers and some nost saying names treat him as an exile from the wiki. He quit RuneScape back in February 2007 due to a variety of things. --Whiplash 13:45, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * He is also the founder of The CVU thing. Shadow quit in February 2007? I thought that he was long gone by then. 15:13, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, he quit RuneScape in february. 15:14, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Shadow was a truly superb editor, a fantastic content contributor, and used to revert vandalism and things. He was an ideal candidate for being an admin.  BUT, he didn't get on with anyone, it wasn't just couchpotato he engaged in edit and flame wars, it was almost every other contributor to the wiki.   He lived by the Flamer's Bible.  There were several concurrent campaigns to get his adminship revoked at one stage, which culminated in him reacted badly and trying to block every other contributor to the wiki at the time, needless to say his adminship rights were stripped and himself blocked. --Eucarya Talk 11:05, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I thought this was a nomination for Whiplash as a Bureaucrat. :O 13:16, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
 * It is. --Whiplash 14:17, 20 April 2007 (UTC)


 * It is? From my angle of view this has turned to discussion about Shadowdancer. I think we should end this soon, isn't 16 votes enough? :O And by the way I turn my Support to Very Strong Support. I really think we need another crat when Vimes has left the wiki. 13:34, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

What're you talking about, Vimes hasn't left. He is merely editing less often. 19:31, 24 April 2007 (UTC)


 * But he told me so at the bottom of this page: User talk:Vimescarrot/Active users Hmm... Maybe it was a lie? 20:33, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I would still like to get Vimes' support on Whiplash's cratship. As it is, he's neutral.  If I don't get a positive vote from him by mid-may, and we don't receive any more negative nominations here, I think I'll make Whiplash a bureaucrat. --Eucarya Talk 23:50, 24 April 2007 (UTC)


 * That's the right thing to do! ;) 11:26, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
