Forum:New Administrative Elections: June 23rd to July 23rd

NOTICE ADDED JULY 1st: Due to the recent resignation of Jedi Master 76 from the position of Administrator, two Administrators should be elected by the end of this election.

I honestly didn’t think we’d be having an Administrative election for quite some time, if ever, because Vic and I really had things covered well. However, Squishy Vic has now retired, as most of you most likely know, so that leaves me as the one fully active Administrator. Obviously Jasca Ducato and C3PO the Dragon Slayer are somewhat active, and NKSCF is a bit less somewhat active, but the other Administrators simply aren’t active enough to cover what Vic and I had been doing, and I can’t cover all that by myself.

I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I think I’m a pretty damn good leader. I wouldn’t have made it to where I am on the internet and, far more importantly, real life if I wasn’t, because as well all know leadership standards obviously have had to be raised due to some recent events. However, no one can properly micro-manage everything like I’d have to micro-manage this wiki. I can’t do it and no one can do it, and if I tried to then it’d just blow up in my face. That is why this election is necessary, as are the upcoming elections for a new Bureaucrat and a new Decreton Lord or two.

I just want to take a moment to go over the rules for Administrator elections, however they are fairly long and would just clutter this page so I’m simply going to direct you to Star Wars Fanon:Requests for adminship. You need to read that before voting or else you’re liable to have your vote removed. Technically this election should be held on the aforementioned page, but just to keep things a bit more orderly I’m doing it here, and placing a link on the RFA page. The results will be archived as normal, though.

Remember the basics like you cannot vote for yourself, you cannot vote if you do not have 250 edits and you cannot vote if you have not been here for one month. Voting will be starting immediately today and will last until July 23rd, which is exactly one month from today, per normal. If you wish to oppose a candidate, you need to supply clear and concrete reasons for it. Invalid reasons such as personal issues will result in your vote being void. If it seems like there is a clear winner before then, then we’ll discuss ending it earlier.

'''NOTICE: I am adding something to the rules here for this election that I plan on officially proposing when it is over. Because there are now two spots open due to the resignation of Vic and now Jedi Master 76, users may give FULL support to two but ONLY two candidates. After that, the current rules apply.'''

Please let me know if you have any questions. Also, keep in mind that you are welcomed and encouraged to ask the candidates questions so you can learn more about them and how they will be an Administrator. Just to throw this out there, I hope to have two new Administrators by the end of this election, because I sincerely doubt only one could fill the very large shoes that Vic is leaving behind. - President Brandon Rhea  (Pressroom) (Record) 21:26, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Current Standings

 * 1) Gnosis is knowledge (12)
 * 2) Michaeldsuarez (5)
 * 3) Darth tom (1)

Support

 * 1) I owe quite a bit to Gnosis. Back in the August - September elections in 2007, NKSCF was the clear and obvious front runner. Gnosis and I were both vying for that second slot. Considering the votes, Gnosis would have won. However, he pulled out of the race and left the Wiki for a few months citing personal reasons. Had he not pulled out, he would have become an Administrator and I would not have. It is likely that there would not have been another election and I would not even be an Administrator right now. He is a very qualified candidate, having been here for a very long time and knowing the insides and out of the Wiki. He also is incredibly helpful by welcoming users, notifying them that they need to follow policies, tagging articles with maintenance templates, etc. A glance at his edits will tell you much more. He has my full support pending the nomination of other candidates. - President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] (Pressroom) (Record) 21:26, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) I can't believe he isn't an administrator already. He has been here since the beginning and has done much to keep this Wiki on track. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 21:51, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) I think he does deserve it, and has done for a while. Darth Abeonis Sith Council Sith Campaign 22:20, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) Full Vote  I told Darth tom over the IRC that Gnosis would be involved in this election. History is in the making. As the Dark Lord Jasca has voted, I will follow the dark lord. But seriously per Michaeldsuarez.  [[Image:AndeLeg.jpg|20px]] Arav  (talk ) 22:27, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

 * 6) *Because HP can get to be a boring job sometimes. If you look at Gnosis's contributions, he's constantly welcoming people and letting them know what policies they've broken and tagging articles for clean up, categorization or deletion.

 * 4) I give a tentative Full Vote pending any other nominations. It doesn't matter if he doesn't have articles or not. That's not what makes an Administrator. Some of our Administrators have plenty of articles and continue to work on them yet do nothing Administrative related. Michael is already doing that stuff. He tags plenty of articles for deletion, now he can actually delete them. I don't remember having an Administrator that really only dealt with the technical stuff, and I think this is going to help significantly. - <font color="#1A2BBB">President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] <font color="#1A2BBB">(Pressroom) <font color="#1A2BBB">(Record) 15:22, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) A good guy, but barely an article edits. I can't really expect him to empathise with authors if he hasn't really written any articles, and he's only written a few. Besides, he's not that active any more (he seems to be coming back, but I'd need more assurance) and the good work he's doing doesn't need administrative duties to continue.

 * 6) What in your opinion is a good article and a bad article?  Wing   msg 21:04, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) *A bad article is an article with a lack of creativity, ton of red links, and poor grammar and spelling. Basically, it's any articles that doesn't read well and attracts little interest from the reader. It's an article that an user creates with little thought or care. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) *A good article is the opposite. It's interesting and creative. You want to know how the author came up with everything. It's original and it presents the reader with something they've never seen before. It doesn't have any grammar or spelling error to distract the reader. It has a unique writing style that keeps the reader reading and reading. An good article should also have distinctive and eye-catching pictures. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

 * 10) *Yes, I'm already getting along with them. Although they sometimes make me aware of a mistake or issue, I always resolve the conflict quickly.

 * No, I don't. I'm afraid that my leadership experience is limited to failed attempts to obtain a leadership position. I tried to become the Drum Major (leader) of the High School Marching Band, but two future Naval officiers were chosen instead.

Although some might think Wiki's are unimportant, I hope to develope writing and leadership skills here. I hope to become a great writer and teacher one day, but I won't have a chance if I attempt to do that prepared. Those skills must develope here and now.

He has also led Project Cruentus, which appears to be going very well. These acts have demonstrated Tom's leadership skills and his ability to work well with others, both of which are needed for the administrator's job.

Comments

 * 1) I'm not entirely sure yet. I haven't seen him do anything really above and beyond what's required of him, other than initially deciding to take on CUSWFN which has been mentioned. When I say that, it's more in terms of once he was in that position and as a High Priest, or just a regular member. I know he's cleaning up LOTR Fanon, so I'd have to take a look at what he's doing there. One of the other reasons I'm not quite sure yet is the way I've seen him deal with some users. He's been incredibly forceful with threatening to have articles deleted and the like, and the problem I have with that is that he wasn't really in a position to be threatening to have articles deleted. To sum up, this is not an oppose, but it's not yet a support. Can I change my opinion? Sure, I just need to think, see LOTR Fanon and hear from Tom. - <font color="#1A2BBB">President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] <font color="#1A2BBB">(Pressroom) <font color="#1A2BBB">(Record) 19:55, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, to quote the default page that appears on Name of Wiki: Administrators before it is edited, it reads: 'Ideally an admin shouldn't be considered "in charge".' Therefore, adminstrators aren't to be considered in charge and I did have perfect right to do so. However, have I not stopped on it since the actual incidence? At the risk of sounding impertinent, administrators aren't 'in charge', and so I had every right to warn these users. It also says: 'The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons and to use them for the benefit of the Wikia community.' It doesn't state someone who's allowed to warn users unlike other users, and I defend anyones write to do so, and to warn a user that it will be deleted, and that it's in everyones right to put a deletion template on the page. 'The ideal admin is just someone who is trusted to have a few extra buttons'; we don't have these buttons and so we are completely allowed to use templates instead of buttons, thus pretty much doing what the administrators can do. However, the 'power' of the administrators isn't negated by this as the administrators have the dele button, and so have the final say. I believe that what I did wasn't wrong and, anyway, I haven't done so since then. [[Image:Darthtomsig.png|163px]] iChat What I've done 20:09, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Yeah, that I do accept, and I believe I've changed that since then. I've done a lot of greets/asking to categorize since then, and I don't believe I've been overly forceful since. Is one incident too much to be forgiven for? I don't believe so, and I don't believe the community do; NKSCF is an admin, despite once making a PA.
