RuneScape:Requests for adminship/IsobelJ

IsobelJ
''I, IsobelJ, accept this nomination for adminship. I have read the policies concerning administrators. I realise that this nomination may fail. If I do get community consensus, I promise not to abuse my tools because I realise that this is a serious offence. If the community finds that I have done so, my tools will be revoked, and in extreme cases I could be given a community ban. Signed, 13:52, April 6, 2016 (UTC)

Questions for the nominee
1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?

I currently do a large amount file maintenance edits: I am a custodian and frequently make use of the ability to move files to correct their names; as well as adding categories, licenses and tags to newly uploaded and existing images. I would like to help out more in this area by making use of the ability to delete and merge files, and to fulfil these requests for other users. I would also like to help out in discussions by determining consensus; in moderating Special:Chat; and in counter-vandalism, using the ability to block users and protect pages if required. I am pretty much always in the Clan Chat and S:C when online so I could easily be contacted by other editors who required an administrator's help.

2. What have been your most helpful contributions to the RuneScape Wiki, and why?

I am particularly proud of working on the scan clues page and skill guides as I feel I made the pages significantly more useful for readers. Rewriting upcoming updates and continuing to document information released ahead of new updates is also something I am pleased with, as I feel that having this added to the wiki in advance is very beneficial to getting content added quickly when the updates go live. I've also continued taking and editing images; I've updated a lot of outdated images (like pets and Farming growth stages) and I try and cut down the number of images needing transparency and translucency when I can. '''3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or have other users caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?'''

I became involved in some conflict with User:AnselaJonla when I was still fairly new to the wiki, as I disagreed with her treatment of some users. This was eventually resolved by putting it to discussion with the community which resulted in Ansela being blocked from editing for some time. I also was involved in some heated discussion about Clan Chat matters in the fallout from Forum:Reforming the Clan Chat. My intention was to see the problems fully addressed so the clan could move on and become a better place, however I think that this may have come across negatively sometimes, as if I was intending to cause more drama or be difficult.

For things relating to conflicts about editing I guess I could say User:Leon Art and I had differing views about including older information about the Mining and Smithing rework on upcoming updates. We solved this through discussion on each other’s talk pages and consulting a JMod on whether the information still applied. Generally I don’t get into conflict on the wiki, but if I disagree with someone I'll start a discussion with them and try to reach a outcome or comprise which is best for everyone. I follow our policies relating to this, which I feel are very important in helping the wiki run smoothly.

4. Should this request be successful, which of the following, if any, do you wish to be added to your account: IRC operator; Clan Chat administrator?

I am already clan admin. I don’t wish to be an IRC operator as I am not active on IRC.
