Foxy Loxy ( talk · contribs) – I first encountered Foxy Loxy after his last failed RfA. Many of the opposes were for things that did not relate to his editing abilities or his potential as a candidate, but over the last few months I've seen Foxy work hard to correct the points brought up by the more relevant opposes. Foxy spends a lot of time around WP:SPI, an area that could certainly use more administrators, and also has experience with other administrator-centric areas such as WP:CSD. Holding back the tide of spam, vandals and sockpuppets isn't his only area of expertise, no; he also has some excellent article-writing experience under his belt. BootX and Xgrid are both Good Articles as the result of his work, with Xgrid certainly FA-worthy with some tweaks. He only has 2000-odd edits to the mainspace, yes, but when those edits have produced two GAs I think the numbers are moot; the content added is certainly of high quality, and contains more bytes than say a typofix. In my interactions with Foxy I've found him to be a polite, helpful user, and the comments on his talkpage reflect this. Hopefully RfA regulars will feel that SPI/CSD experience + excellent article work + politeness and helpfulness is an excellent formula to = tools. Ironholds ( talk) 12:01, 10 April 2009 (UTC) reply
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. It is recommended that you answer these optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
{{
opentasks}}
template (it's transcluded on the
Wikipedia:Community portal) with fresh articles every 3 hours. I also look at all articles listed
here and clean up any that I notice needing formatting, linking etc (like
this). In the past I have also assisted in the mediation of several disputes (the longest running of which regarded the
Bates method article) with the
mediation cabal.
Additional questions from User:Geo Swan:
