I've been in two minds about running for a while. I've decided that I'm going to run, hence why you're reading this promotion bid. So, here's the rundown. I've been an active member of the community for about a year, and a decent member of the community for about 4 months. I have almost 6000 contributions, and I regularly maintain orphaned pages, take care of suburb news archival, and do other janitorial tasks that crop up, like demerging pages. I'd like to run for promotion to help push admin tasks through as and when they're due. I'm frequently on when few other people, let alone sysops, are, as I'm online pretty much most of the time. Also, with only 4-6 active sysops, I feel we could always do with more people churning things through. Last time I ran, I was mainly rejected because of my attitude towards drama, something I've been trying to avoid since the last bid, and, despite a few hiccups, I feel it is something which I have achieved. Now, I throw myself at the mercy of you Donkeys, the ruling crats, and whoever else ambles by.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:13, 23 April 2010 (BST)

  • Against - I can't really explain this one, it's just that I get vaguely nauseous whenever I picture you ruling on A/VB cases and Misconduct cases and whatnot. I just wouldn't feel comfortable with you in that role and there really isn't a whole lot to do specificially as a sysop apart from that (Deletions and Speedy Deletions are both incredibly light workloads except in rare extreme cases). Also avoiding drama isn't really what people want in a sysop (Rooster cops a decent amount of flak for his policy of never voting on Misconduct or A/VB); they want someone who does get involved in it but manages to handle it effectively. I don't feel as though you can do that. Cyberbob  Talk  23:53, 23 April 2010 (BST)
  • Weak Against - 0.2% of your last 500 edits were to building reports. --VVV RPMBG 00:41, 24 April 2010 (BST)
  • Against - You gotta be shittin me.-- | T | BALLS! | 00:56 24 April 2010(UTC)
  • Abstain - I'll give some serious thought to it over the next few days, but to some extent, I gotta say that I agree with Cyberbob. It's not about avoiding drama: it's about handling it well, and I'm not sure I trust you completely to do that just yet. Last time you were up, you had made a series of poor decisions around that time, which are still somewhat hard to let go when considering promotions. In the last few months, however, you've been a pretty upstanding member of the community. Your janitorial work around the wiki is very welcome (though those orphan notices, while helpful, are kinda annoying, especially when you put them in obnoxious places :P), and you do a lot to keep things clean and in working order. I'd definitely trust you with the janitorial work, but when it comes to making judgments...kinda the gut feeling thing is an issue. For now, question: what role do you see yourself playing when it comes to making decisions in A/VB, A/M, and similar situations? Will you be active, semi-active, or inactive there, and if you're not inactive, how will you approach cases? Aichon 00:59, 24 April 2010 (BST)
