With Cook My Socks recently retired and Urbancowgurl777 inactive, 40% of the existing CheckUser accounts need to be reassigned.
Candidates may nominate themselves, and naturally must be administrators. If you are nominating someone other than yourself, please contact them on their talk page and wait for them to accept before adding them to this thread. Nominations should use this template: {{SUBST:Forum:Choosing new CheckUsers/Template |username |reason}}

Question(s)
- What does a check user actually do? Specifically for this wiki, I found something global, but it wasn't clear to me what it meant for here. Salix of Prifddinas (Talk) 20:48, July 21, 2016 (UTC)
- A checkuser account has the ability to check the IPs from which an account is editing. This is mostly used to find sockpuppets for vandals if they are not IP banned.

I have had the CheckUser right in the past (it was reassigned due to brief inactivity). I am active daily, especially from 11pm to 4am EST, when few other administrators are around. --Iiii I I I 05:33, July 5, 2016 (UTC)

- Who is the user saying this? Can you/they explain what they are referring to when they say he misused tools before? (Assuming this is a serious comment)

- Mr Lee is referring to a meme, I believe :) (no it's not serious :)) Haidro (talk) 15:51, July 6, 2016 (UTC)
- It's a six year old comment from the first CheckUser thread, referring to these blocks (which won't happen again). --Iiii I I I 17:53, July 6, 2016 (UTC)

I'll preface this by saying that I am definitely not the best candidate for checkuser, as I'm not around nearly as much as some of the other guys. However, as no one else has been nominated, and we have two openings, I'm putting myself forward so we don't lose a checkuser spot. I'll withdraw if someone else is nominated.
I'm not the most active, but I do check the wiki on a fairly regular basis (at least once a day). I mostly close threads nowadays. It's not hard to get a hold of me quickly, as a good number of wikians know my email/phone/facebook. I think I have decently good judgment with regards to policy matters and can fairly use checkuser. So yeah. --LiquidTalk 23:14, July 15, 2016 (UTC)
Liquids are only for closing threads - just saying Archmage Elune TalkHS fetus is my son and I love him. 13:17, July 16, 2016 (UTC)
