The Arbiter (
talk ·
contribs) – Hello everyone, I’m The Arbiter, and I have been editing Wikipedia for over a year now. During my time here, I have done a wide variety of things. I have worked quite a bit in anti-vandalism. I am also coordinator of two Wikiprojects,
WikiProject Mammals and
WikiProject Zoo. I have worked along with another user to revamp those projects and have done various tasks with those projects, such as starting collaborations. I have also helped to build
Portal:Zoos and Aquariums, which is still being worked on. If I become an admin, I will be able to contribute to an even higher level to those projects, doing things that regular users are unable to do (For example, editing the page notices of Wikipedia namespace pages and deleting and restoring old pages related to our projects).
In my time here at Wikipedia, I feel that I have gained the trust of many Wikipedians. I never have lost my cool with an editor, or even gotten in an argument. I hate to see people argue, and I try my best to calm arguments, as they lead nowhere except a few bans and blocks, most likely. If I ever do get angry, I have a policy of “never typing when angry”.
As said before, I do a lot of anti-vandalism work. I would like to be an admin for the purpose of setting blocks on vandals, but also to work with users who challenge their blocks. Some users are trying to be good faith editors, but end up being blocked.
My main reason for wanting to be an admin, however, is that I will help with
WP:ANI and
WP:AIV. I have noticed the vast amount of problems that get posted there, and I believe that I can contribute from a neutral and level-headed standpoint to those issues. If I become an admin, I will continue to work in the areas I normally work in, but using the privileges that I currently do not have. I will also assist in any backlogs that need admin attention. In summary, I would also like to expand my tasks into helping in more of a variety of things on Wikipedia.

Well, I see that I still have much work to do. Thanks for all the advice and encouragement from everyone…now I see which areas I need to improve on. I will certainly work harder in the areas suggested, and do my best to continue to contribute to Wikipedia! I withdraw my RFA.
