Evil Monkey has been with us since November 2003 and has made over 7000 edits (including under a previous username). Not only has he contributed some excellent articles, including the
award-winningApollo 8 and another featured article, but he does a lot of administrative and community-spirited work too, such as image tagging and assisting new users. Surely worthy of the mop and bucket? —

I asked him about a week ago if he'd like to be nominated, but he wasn't ready then. Strong support.-

Support. More of our primate cousins should be administrators. I've seen Evil Monkey do some great work and demonstrate good judgment. —

Hmm... How safe is it to entrust adminship powers to somebody who is
Lawful Evil?
Sjakkalle 07:52, 21 May 2005 (UTC) Hey, it wasn't
User:Evil Monkey who added his name there! so Support. Great user.

Support. An exemplary editor showing a constructive collegiate attitude. I would like to see edit summaries on minor edits as well as major ones, however. --

Oppose, needs more time on Wikipedia before I can support. Oh wait... November 2003... *counts months on fingers*... 1 year 6 months... I guess I'll just have to SUPPORT. -

Of course. And thanks for writing edit summaries.

Support, though I would have appreciated a more enthusiastic acceptance.

A. I can see myself doing a lot of vandalism reversion
2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. I especially like my two FAs
Apollo 8 and
Saturn V. I did a lot of work on them and I think they showcase Wikipedia at its best
3. Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and will deal with it in the future?
A. At one stage
WikiUser (who got banned for a year by ArbCom) took offense to me editing 'his' pages to conform with the Manual of Style. I basically let it go after he started attacking other users, though did write a piece for his
WP:RFAr. On minor content or style disputes I tend to just change it once to the way I think it should be and then if it changed, I'll let it be. Though recently on
Lethal injection I did get into something of a dispute over whether we should mention the fact that the History Channel states the first execution lethal injection in the United States took place in 1983, not 1982 as all other sources stated. In this case I thought it was important to stand my ground as I think there is no point to talking about an error on an external site. I try to stay away from policy votes. In future I think I'll continue my policy of trying to be unconfrontational and saying away from controversial topics
4. What is your previous user name? Thanks
