| :Basically, if I'm promoted, you can expect more of the same from me. I'm just a guy helping out around here for fun, and that's not gonna change. Real life keeps me busy quite often, but I have no issues with helping out on sysop stuff when I can. To be clear though, I'm not interested in having this become a major, time-sucking obligation, nor am I interested in having the things I've been doing out of good will until now suddenly become things that are demanded and expected of me regularly, if that makes sense. I'm also not interested in getting caught up in whatever politics are going on here. I think for myself and speak for myself alone.

| *:Honestly, I think a big issue right now is that a lot of information is scattered around a million different places, some of which is up to date but much of which is not (there's also a related issue of important information being in difficult to find locations). It's confusing for newcomers and confusing for many veterans of the wiki as well, from what I've seen. While I'm not promising to go through and clean all of them up, I do think that working on centralizing various pieces of information using templates that can be included wherever applicable may be something that needs to be done eventually. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 20:49, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

| *::'''Question''' give me a couple of real life examples and you'll get my vouch. --{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 22:32, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
| |
| *:::Sure. The big one that stood out to me immediately (simply because it's very important to newbies and has major issues) was search rates, since they are scattered all over, though templates are probably not the answer for them, so much as simply centralizing the efforts and standardizing the output in some manner. Policy and guideline documentation could use work, since some guidelines are only ever stated in a notification box on a single page, while others are stated in multiple places that don't always state things in plain English or even in a consistent manner. In terms of things that might be helped by templates a bit more than those examples, it might be possible to include building statuses in the various maps that are around and simplify the suggestion process (it's a mess right now). I'm sure there are plenty of other ways to improve things, but I'm speaking off-the-cuff here. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:17, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure how active I'll be around those parts, but I do not intend to be a no-show, just to be clear. As for how I intend to approach them, I'd say that I value consistency in application, common sense, and logic (i.e. apply precedents that are based on sound reasoning the same to everyone, follow the spirit of the law rather than trying to parse words, and work with my head rather than my gut). Also, I'm man enough to own up to my mistakes when I realize them or am called on them, so when/if I do mess up, you can expect a minimum of fuss from me. Of course, words alone aren't nearly as good as action to back them up, and since I don't have a history of regularly commenting on or diving into the drama, I fully understand where you're coming from with your abstention. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 06:33, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
