Questions
When thinking about the adminship process, what are your thoughts and opinions about the following areas:
- Candidate selection (inviting someone to stand as a candidate)
- I don't know much about the process now, but my experience with admins has been pretty mixed. Sometimes they're very helpful, other times it feels a little bit like the Stanford prison experiment, they're in a position of power and they start playing that role. Apparently there's also one with a diaper fetish.
- Administrator coaching (either formally or informally)
- A very good idea.
- Nomination, co-nomination and self-nomination (introducing the candidate)
- No opinion.
- Advertising and canvassing
- I don't know exactly what this means, but it sounds like a horrible idea wrt adminship.
- Debate (Presenting questions to the candidate)
- If it used more as a educational process and less to humiliate potential admins, it's probably good.
- Election (including providing reasons for support/oppose)
- It's like with the AfD process, I don't trust voting but I also don't trust a single admins/bureaucrats to be objective. There's not an easy answer.
- Withdrawal (the candidate withdrawing from the process)
- Seems like they should have to right.
- Declaration (the bureaucrat closing the application. Also includes
WP:NOTNOW closes)
- As long as there is a review process if it's used maliciously.
- Training (use of New Admin School, other post-election training)
- Good idea.
- Recall (the Administrators Open to Recall process)
- Also a good idea.
When thinking about adminship in general, what are your thoughts and opinions about the following areas:
- How do you view the role of an administrator?
- A lot like a user, except responsible.
- What attributes do you feel an administrator should possess?
- Less of a power-trip and more of a public servant.
Finally, when thinking about Requests for Adminship:
- Have you ever voted in a request for Adminship? If so what was your experience?
- No.
- Have you ever stood as a candidate under the Request for Adminship process? If so what was your experience?
- No.
- Do you have any further thoughts or opinions on the Request for Adminship process?
- It seems like a horrible thing to put someone through.
