Around 3000 edits since 05:42, 9 Nov 2003 [1]. Mirv will make an excellent administrator. He helps raise the bar for other contributors and is always level-headed. Earlier today I was surprised to find out that Mirv hadn't become an admin a long time ago; he should've been. 172
Thank you 172, I accept the nomination.
Regarding the questions raised by Snowspinner and UninvitedCompany below: As I explained to RickK when he asked, I agreed strongly with the ideas behind the summary, never mind the harsh language in which they were expressed. In retrospect I ought to have asked that the summary be made less abusive (or done so myself) before giving and maintaining my endorsement, and I apologize for not doing so.
I hope this explains things to everyone's satisfaction. —No-One Jones 18:01, 25 May 2004 (UTC)

I have indicated my support for Mirv's adminship above. Mirv is a fine, upstanding contributor who has made valuable contributions and who has familiarity with and involvement in admin-related matters. I did note his endorsement of the RfC text noted above, which I consider inappropriate, and all the more so because Mirv did not avail himself of the opportunity to distance himself from the comment when RickK brought it to his attention. However, because this is a relatively minor faux pas in the greater scheme of things, and since it appears to be an isolated event, I still support Mirv for adminship.

As a note, I invite Mirv to explain the endorsement above either here, in e-mail, or on my talk page - prior to it I would have supported, and so I would welcome some explanation, as I would like to support. For the time being, I'm downgrading my vote to neutral. Snowspinner 15:59, 25 May 2004 (UTC)
Overdue for adminship, and the isolated instance of endorsing a statement with abusive language is the only thing I have ever seen Mirv do that I consider inappropriate. I would not deny Mirv adminship on these grounds, any more than I would support de-sysoping Danny for writing the language initially. The statement has since been rewritten, and with that I think we should all be able to put it behind us. -- Michael Snow 20:27, 25 May 2004 (UTC)
