User:Daranz

I'm putting Daranz up for A/RE as per his long time position as an unevaluated Sysop. I've put a notice on his talk page about this. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 08:28, 3 September 2009 (BST)

Alrighty then. If (or rather, when) I get kicked to the curb at least I won't have to feel obliged to keep coming here. --Daranz^{.t.mod janitor} 20:56, 4 September 2009 (BST)

• Hell no - literally comes on once every 4 months to keep his status. --xoxo 08:32, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• No way - as previously stated, kick him in the cunt.--I'm a motherfuckin' lyrical wordsmith motherfuckin' genius! 08:34, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Forget it - As Jed, really. --Thadeous Oakley 08:56, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Similar behaviour to Swiers except not quite as bad because he was actually a good sysop at one point. Cyberbob  Talk  08:58, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Strongly Against --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 08:59, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against --Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 09:31, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Strongly Against - I've been on the wiki for 3 and a half years and I've only seen him a handful of times and even then all he did was write on talk pages and comment on something. I've never seen him do anything that requires sysop powers. -- Cheese 09:38, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Keep - Daranz's contributions, although far between, are always helpful. As long as he doesn't fall below the threshold for inactivity, I have no problem with him keeping the sysop abilities so that he can do his wiki gnome work without having to go through the admin pages -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 09:44 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - As Cheese Monkey --WanYao 10:05, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Heck noes! - eight edits for 2009 thus far, none of which required sysopowers.--Nallan (Talk) 10:37, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against His very rare contributions may be worthwhile but they are not enough to justify the sysop badge.--Honestmistake 12:20, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Abstain! Because apart from meat puppetry, I have no idea which way to vote. Because I have no idea who this is. --Rahrah^{Come join the #party!}13:24, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Severe inactivity. --Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 14:38, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - As above, and below --Anime Sucks 19:27, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Vouch - as boxy. Daranz is one of the few sysops which can be trusted to be impartial in any case he rule on --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{[talk] [wcdz]} 20:42, 3 September 2009 (BST)
  • Assuming he's around to rule on it. ;p -- Cheese 20:48, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Good lord no. I shouldn't be able to see a complete listing of his edits from June 2008 to June 2009 on the same page!!! Agh! And for those of you who laud his impartiality, well christ, a plasmodial slime mold would be equally impartial and contribute about as much to the wiki.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 21:27, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Showing up every 4 months does not a sysop make. --Kamden^T|^RRF|^W| 21:36, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Much like an attractive lesbian, this one is a waste of a perfectly good slot. --Papa Moloch 22:59, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Abstain - Whether he's around much or not, I really don't know the guy well enough to say if he should have sysop powers. Lelouch vi Britannia is helping make Ridleybank green_ and gives Achievements 23:34, 3 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - In for way too long, does nothing anymore.--SirArgo ^Talk 02:17, 4 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - WAY too inactive--Orange Talk 02:20, 4 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - As cheese. --Haliman - Talk 02:44, 4 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Someone who contributed less than I did, with less community support, getting a positive vote from box(imnottrollin)y? for shame :P Conndraka^{mod TAZM CFT} 14:06, 5 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - No where near active enough. Good in his time from what I saw, but far too inactive.-- Adward  15:19, 5 September 2009 (BST)
• Vouch - As Boxy. Even if Daranz only uses his sysop powers once every 4 months, that's still 1 more constructive edit than would be made otherwise.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 22:15, 5 September 2009 (BST)
• Abstain - Haven't seen him around enough to make a call. - T^HEL^ORDG^UNS^LINGER 01:33, 6 September 2009 (BST)
• Varch - Inactivity doesn't really matter, as long as a sysops pokes in once in a while. Sysops are nothing special. There's no real reason to remove a sysops even if they edit only sparingly, (unless they forget to wiki), so as boxy. Also, daranz's comment. --  AHLGTH 23:41, 7 September 2009 (BST)

  not really true, ahlg. there are new policies, precedents, things going on that a sysop should be in the loop on. --WanYao 06:58, 8 September 2009 (BST)

  No, there's hardly anything new or complicated. It's not difficult, especially since Daranz really only seems to poke in on deletions, moves, protections. --  AHLGTH 16:40, 8 September 2009 (BST)

• Against Nothing against you personally its just that it would be better with someone that is more active --DOWN WITH THE 'CRATS!!! | Join Nod!!! 00:48, 10 September 2009 (BST)

The community discussion is now over. I leave this in the hands of Boxy and Link now. DDR says we can now leave this up to Boxy and Link. -- Cheese 23:07, 10 September 2009 (BST)

Actually, I did, but thanks for forcing it out there :/ --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 23:45, 10 September 2009 (BST)

I know. I just realised that =p I copy pasted what I put above. -- Cheese 23:56, 10 September 2009 (BST)

Ooooh okay. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 00:09, 11 September 2009 (BST)

Demoted. Thanks for your contributions, Daranz, but it seems clear that the community wants more active sysops -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 03:31 13 September 2009 (BST)
