Siva1979 ( talk · contribs) - This is my first self-nomination and my fourth overall nomination. I have over 19 000 edits ranging from various namespaces. I would like to have the additional tools of adminship to broaden my scope of edits of this project. I have been editing since January of 2006. However, during the months of March, April and May of 2007, I did not have any contributions to this project as I was in hospital. My last three RfAs are here, here and here. I accept this self-nomination. S iva1979 Talk to me 07:17, 13 July 2007 (UTC) reply
Dear candidate, thank you for offering to serve Wikipedia as an administrator. You may wish to answer the following optional questions to provide guidance for participants:
Please keep criticism constructive and polite. If you are unfamiliar with the nominee, please thoroughly review Special:Contributions/siva1979 before commenting.
I reviewed portions of the previous RFAs, of which the most recent is almost a year old. The common thread is that Siva's edits tend to be minor, almost trivial, and don't really do much to help the project. Arguably, that may not have changed. Of his 150 most recent contribs as of this writing, almost all are welcome messages for new users and categorization and similiarly minor edits. There is very little indication that Siva would know how to close a controversial AFD. That being said, Siva has been doing these minor edits for so long - about 18 months - that I'd be willing to trust him with the "minor" admin tasks, such as speedy deletion of redirects and nonsense pages.
