FINAL (0/3/1); withdrawn by candidate 18:12, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Qst ( talk · contribs) - Hello and thank you for taking the time to review me. I have been an editor of Wikipedia since October 2006 as Tellyaddict, however I decided it was time for a fresh start and I decided to create a new account and start from scratch at this account. I have been editing at this account for over two months now and have just under 8000 edits (9k inc. deleted edits) although I dont think this is really important – I think its more about quality of edits (Note: In total I have nine months experience plus the 13000 edis I had as Tellyaddict). I dont consider myself to be a deletionist or anything else although I do a lot of deletion work on Wikipedia, this is often work with images which do not not have a copyright tag or have other problems with what is on or more often than not what is missing. I understand that many users may say I'm not here to build the encyclopedia and I'm not going to argue because you have the right your opinion, I have wrote a total of fourteen articles and approximately 20 as Tellyaddict. When I first began here, I did lots of article work but generally moved more to RC patrolling and work with images, not because of the apparent "quick and easy way to get your edit count up" but because of the satisfaction of doing it. I am here to help and I dont particularly consider edit count to be the most important thing, its the actual ability to communicate well. Moving on to the more "admin like" work I have made 101 reports to AIV (plus 600 as Tellyaddict) and 243 to usernames for administrator attention. I regularly help out at changing username and usurpations as well as other editors and intend to continue my work there and to other places like article for creation whether or not this is successful.
I regularly contribute to articles for deletion and often miscellany for deletion, I sometimes close AfD's as keep which is acceptable but one should take care when closing these, I have seen several AfD's which need closing and consensus is clearly in favour of delete and I intend to give a hand there. I regularly contribute to other users requests for adminship and requests for bureaucratship and try to participate at the discussions at WT:RFA.
I would like to ask the community one thing, if someone opposes and doesn't explain why; please do not jump on them and begin to question them as I feel this would be unfair and would like to discuss it with them myself. Just so commenters know, I had two previous RfA's as Tellyaddict ( 1/ 2) however the last one of these was in early March and many of the opposes were based upon my regretful participation in several AfD's within an extremely short time. I eagerly await your comments here, whether this be support, oppose or neutral.
Thank you for your time and happy editing! Qst 16:55, 6 July 2007 (UTC) reply
