Hi everyone, I am nominating myself for adminship. I’ve been here for roughly half a year (since the 5th of June) and have a total of {{Special:Editcount/Calebchiam}} edits, close to a thousand of them being mainspace edits. This isn’t much compared to some users, but I believe it shows that I am dedicated to improving this wiki. Most of my image edits are adding templates as I don’t have any fancy software to edit any images I take. To put it very simply, I believe I could benefit the wiki more if I had sysop powers. These are my reasons:

''I, Calebchiam accept this nomination for bureaucratship. I understand that the only difference between bureaucratship and the administrative ability that I already have is that I am able to assign user rights. I understand that I may not, for any reason, delegate any form of adminship to any user who has not passed an appropriate RFA, RFB, or RFF. Lastly, I understand that the respective agreement in regards to standard adminship still applies. Signed,'' [candidate signs here].
*Vandals. They are pretty much here every single day because anyone and everyone can edit. Not that I’m saying that anyone and everyone being able to edit is a bad thing. In any case, I feel that if I could deal with the vandal myself instead of being the middleman (reporting the vandal, which I've done quite a number of times), it would save a lot of trouble. In fact, just a few days ago, the list of vandals was full. And there weren’t any sysops around to block these vandals.
 
*Deleting pages. Sometimes there are vandals who create nonsensical pages, preventing me from doing anything (cannot rollback), but that pretty much belongs above. But there are times where I had to add a Speedy Deletion template to a bad redirect, personal images or a good-willed attempt to create an article (that is actually a duplicate but with different wording). One example of a bad redirect is [http://runescape.wikia.com/index.php?title=Green&action=edit&redlink=1], which automatically redirected to green dragon in spite of the fact that there are hundreds of items that start with “green”. I added the deletion template to it, of course. I've noticed many times where there are Speedy Deletion candidates "waiting" for a sysop to delete the page or remove the template. I could save other sysops the trouble, because I always check the Speedy deletion candidates right after I sign in.
 
*Protecting pages. Isn’t really used much but there are times when vandals repeatedly vandalise one single page. Protecting/Semi-protecting the page would prevent this and give me time to revert the vandalism and block the vandals.

Calebchiam

Calebchiam TalkContribs • Last 20 Forum - Main - User talk editsEdit count

Calechiam is one of our most level-headed administrators by far. He has displayed nothing but competence, integrity, and zeal in editing our beloved wiki. Caleb is an experienced, personable administrator who embodies many of the elements of the old wiki that have faded over he years. I believe I can sum my support of Caleb into one sentence: I cannot fathom an individual whom I trust more to be our wiki's newest bureaucrat with my retirement at the onset of the new year. I have no doubt that Caleb and Karlis will work well together, as our two active bureaucrats, to ensure our wiki's continued success and longevity.--

I, Calebchiam accept this nomination for bureaucratship. I understand that the only difference between bureaucratship and the administrative ability that I already have is that I am able to assign user rights. I understand that I may not, for any reason, delegate any form of adminship to any user who has not passed an appropriate RFA, RFB, or RFF. Lastly, I understand that the respective agreement in regards to standard adminship still applies. Signed, [candidate signs here].

Questions for the nominee

1. What administrative work do you intend to take part in?


2. What are your best contributions to the RuneScape Wiki, and why?

Additional questions (asked by the community if necessary)
