I really just want the rollback tool for tests and vandals on my watchlist. I don't really want extra responsibility, though.
But if I must get both at the same time, I think I am a decent participator and am certainly willing to help newcomers. I have plenty of experience. (4000 edits according to the tool linked above.) -

Seems fine to me. Vandal fighting is a perpetually unfinished task. --

Support. There can never be too many vandal slayers. The vandal bots are getting totally out of hand. Also, the support of each and every one of the above users is good enough for me to offer up mine. -

All the wrong reasons. I can't see granting adminship for self-described personal convenience. --
Netoholic@ 05:32, 2005 Jan 24 (UTC)
At least I'm honest... :-) Besides, my personal convenience benefits the entire project (slightly). I don't see why this tool isn't available to everyone, though. Revert wars, I guess. -

First edit at 05:44 on
August 102003, but mostly lurked until
January 142004. 4021 edits as of right now. 60% are to the main space. No dark secrets in his talk page. Didn't format this RfA correctly. —

And some anonymous lurking before that. The RfA instructions weren't completely obvious, although I may have skimmed a bit... :-\ -

Comment to the candidate: adminship carries no responsibilities other than not abusing any of the admin tools, and not making us look bad. If you will only use the tools occasionally, but will use them in the course of helping the project, most of us are happy with that.

Questions for the candidate A few generic questions to provide guidance for voters:
A. The point is to spend less time reverting vandalism and tests, and possibly spend that time contributing useful info, but not to get more involved and spend more of my time in the inner workings of Wikipedia. Reject me if this is obligatory. I am too much of a
Wikipediholic already... I would use my powers to revert vandalisms on my watchlist more efficiently and delete unused images (of mine). -
Omegatron 05:57, Jan 22, 2005 (UTC)
Not to be a wet blanket, but unused images must still go through
IfD for the purposes of transparency. --

2. Of your articles or contributions to Wikipedia, are there any about which you are particularly pleased, and why?
A. Hmmm.. researching
Peltier-Seebeck effect in a physics encyclopedia merely to add accurate information to the Wikipedia? Well... Also because it didn't explain it in the article and I was curious. -
Omegatron 05:57, Jan 22, 2005 (UTC)
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. I don't get too involved with political or highly charged articles. I neutralized
Anthony Flew, despite being a (weak) atheist? An example of me being "combative" can be seen in discussion of pseudoscience related to
Hydrogen cars. -
