Polargeo ( talk · contribs) – I have been on wikipedia for around 11 months and have been active for the whole of this period. In this time I have produced a good article ( Pine Island Glacier) and I have reviewed three other good article nominations. I have been active in some high profile and difficult areas of wikipedia, particularly Balkans articles such as Rape in the Bosnian War and Karađorđevo agreement, and global warming articles such as Effects of global warming. I have created several new articles, mainly in the area of glaciology and I have patrolled over 100 new pages. I have worked in the general areas of speedy deletion tagging, AfD and reverting vandalism. Polargeo ( talk) 14:35, 16 December 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:
You have stated in this very RfA that I am a troll and also accused me, without providing any evidence, that I was uncivil towards you. You believe that my block log proves it. You also declared that I was inappropriately wikilawyering in our content dispute and accused me of filing a frivolous Wikiquette alert against you after you personally attacked me. You also posted two {{trout}}s on my user talk page during our dispute.
Please keep discussion constructive and civil. If you are unfamiliar with the nominee, please thoroughly review Special:Contributions/Polargeo before commenting.

Oppose. I remember us both participating in a discussion and finding you judgemental and overly forceful when challenged. Just an opinion and no reason to oppose on it own. Your rape article is. Its unnecessarily inflammatory. In Hipo's link you say youve been to the area, so surely you know the regions suffered from a cycle of of violence for generations? To achieve NPOV, there should be some reference to this, then the article might promote a little understanding rather than suggesting the rapes were a spontaneous expression of serbian evil. Saying both sides committed rape in the first line of the lede seems merely lip service to neutrality, especially as the rest of the article is all about atrocities from the Serbs. While you have toned down the POV a little, in an edit summary youre implying thats just to save the article from deletion. Id hope anyone with any emotional literacy would see why the pic youre insisting on keeping at the top of the article is gratuitous. Admins should ideally have good attention to detail, but on the "Early stage" section you have "| accessdate = 2009-06-30}}</ref>" being displayed. Ok generally you seem to be a good editor and communicator, but given the above that even more makes me not want you as an admin. Get outa here!
