Candidates still requiring vouches

WanYao

We're down to nine sysops, effectively seven with computer problems and a soon to be resolved misconduct case. And of those seven, at least two are frightened of drama, a trait that is reprehensible in a sysop. Accordingly we need new sysops, and given that I'm never going to be promoted while Boxy holds the position of 'crat, we may as well have Wan.

Wan has been around for years, shows a clear understanding of policy and procedure and is working to resolve contentious issues rather than leave ambiguity as past sysops have. His contributions show him to be extremely active, a trait desired by the community given the unilateral negative outpouring on Daranz's A/RE. He has been attempting to maintain NPOV on suburb pages for more than a good while now to improve the wiki, and has shown a willingness to engage, and if necessary argue, with any user on matters of principle within policy and misconduct proceedings.

I shall segregate the input section into vote type for this bid, to see if it improves clarity. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 04:18, 13 September 2009 (BST)

• Vouch - Although not as pretty, funny or intelligent as me, Wan would make a safer and more suitable sysop than others already in the position. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 04:18, 13 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - See now I was just thinking that we might be in need of an extra sysop or two. Unfortunately Wan is Not Good. Cyberbob  Talk  04:21, 13 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. no.--CyberRead240 04:28, 13 September 2009 (BST)
• Vouch - I disagree with some of his ideas on a/pd, but have no problem working with him. He has the best interest of the wiki at heart, I'm sure -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 04:43 13 September 2009 (BST)
• Abstain - This vote may change pending others votes and my thinking. Nothing against you Wan, I just want to see Iscariot cry and complain if this doesn't go his way or else I'd vouch now.--SirArgo ^Talk 04:48, 13 September 2009 (BST)
• Against - Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 05:01, 13 September 2009 (BST)
