I'll be straightforward here, I don't think this is going to work, but here goes.
I nominate myself for sysop(I think?)
The reason I believe I should be, is because I am more involved in wiki matters,
and I do make edits in good faith.
I may not be the best formating guy, but I'm learning.
Well, that's about it.-- Jerrel tlk (82nd!) (Project Unwelcome!). 03:35, 13 July 2010 (BST)

  • Against - The simple fact that you have been unable to read this page and place your request in the right header is a striking example of why you're just not qualified to have buttons and responsibilities that I frankly don't believe you'll be capable of coping with. We're coming to get you, Barbara 03:40, 13 July 2010 (BST)
    There's buttons! Oh I love buttons. No, I know what it's like to be in control. I'm the leader of the 82nd, remember? And I run and change our forum. It's just wiki formatting I'm having trouble with.-- Jerrel tlk (82nd!) (Project Unwelcome!). 04:05, 13 July 2010 (BST)
    So why should we give you administrative powers when you're not ready for them? Your enthusiasm exists, but it's just not backed up by any actual presence in the admin sections. Chime in on deletion requests, discuss community events, and so on, and try to pick up the technical know-how around the wiki - perhaps find a personal project you can use to gain these skills, such as picking up tabling and alignment with some group templates, or understanding redirects by fixing any extraneous ones you encounter, that kind of thing. While it's true that nothing lights a fire under your ass quite like the heavy spotlight of responsibility, it's always been necessary to have sufficient grounding in the actual workings of the system before being put in a position of power within it. At present, I just don't feel that you'll be able to achieve enough with the buttons, and given that the workload on the current team is incredibly light, I feel that now is a time where any promotions taking place should really only be handed to those with a genuine knack for wiki coding and operation, who might make a difference on the team. I don't think you're there yet, by quite a bit, but it's not a gap you can't recoup if you put the effort into it. tl;dr lurk less contribute moar We're coming to get you, Barbara 04:13, 13 July 2010 (BST)
    Understood. You know, I keep on getting more reasons why I shouldn't be a sysop. Is there one why I Should be one?-- Jerrel tlk (82nd!) (Project Unwelcome!). 04:22, 13 July 2010 (BST)

  • Against There's nothing wrong with trying, but you're not ready yet. - Poodle of Doom 03:43, 13 July 2010 (BST)
  • Against - I disagree with Poodle. This is a glaring example of what's wrong with trying. --VVV RPGMBCWS 03:54, 13 July 2010 (BST)
  • Against - While you may be learning still, you haven't reached a point of competency in wiki matters (Misanthropy's example being another point in case). Couple that with the fact that we have to go back over a year and a half before we reach 500 edits for you you don't even have 250 edits in over a year and a half, that you don't seem to be a regular contributor to any sort of project or maintenance around here (which demonstrates your lack of "prior interest in maintaining the community"), that you don't have a real presence on the admin pages where we can get to know you and your thought processes, and that you seem prone to stuff like this (see the stuff under jorm's vote, #22 Against) and this (a case of misdirected antagonism due to a misreading of the policy being discussed), and I'm afraid I can't support you.

User:Axe Hack

OK, guys...last time I checked, the nomination does not get moved under Community Discussion until the nominee accepts the bid. I have not accept the bid yet, and have been moving it back to Still Requiring Vouches as the bid has not yet been accepted. I'm not moving it back up a third time now... -_- --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 00:07, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Jerrel

I'm really amazed at the fact that this hasn't been put up any earlier. While there have been very good reasons to criticise Jerrel in the past, he has massively shaped up ever since.

He hasn't done a single bad edit in months - not in five months, not in six months, no, in friggin' seven months! That beats even Ross' track record, who has been put up on A/VB once during that time.

Apart of that, he is a nice guy who actively fights cussing on the wiki.

What could possibly go wrong by promoting someone like him? -- Spiderzed 15:21, 1 April 2011 (BST)

  • Questions
    1. What is different this time from the previous times you've asked for promotion?
    2. I notice on your talk page that you said that you wouldn't run again. What made you change your mind? Asheets 20:04, 1 April 2011 (BST)
