Darth tader 31 March, 2007
Well I guess I have had admin expeirience. I have wanted to be an admin somewhere for sometime,that has happened. I may have not been active here but I have been active on other wiki's. Regarding to GHe's comment I am busy in real life, also wiki-wise. Seeming I am nominated I will do as best as I can to contribute here and look out for vandalism this is my Home-Wiki anyway. I also have an ok knowledge with technical stuff. If there is any vandalism issues when no Admin is around I notify the Wikia Staff for help.

Oppose
Comment I am not lazy, if people would like me to say "you" instead of "u" thats fine. Also to the other comment about the KOTOR wiki, is that I was gone, and was the only active Admin to settle the problem in the beggining, it fell apart cause I wasn't there. I would always get rid of vandals if there is one, or warn them. Darth tader Mandalore clan MPTG  00:49, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
 * 1) STRONG OPPOSE. Why should we have an admin who is too lazy to spell out "you", isn't the most active, and had a wiki which he was admin on fall apart! NO.
 * 1) Oppose. Sorry, you're a good editor, but I think you should gain more wiki experience first and you're not that active here. --Jack Phoenix (Contact) 10:03, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment - I have been on, all the time actually, my absense for the week was a funeral with no computer acess. I have been busy on other wikis. If I was going to know I was going to be nominated here I would of first said no and work on some stuff before I would run for one. My other wikis are fine and I am returning, if anyone would also like to know the 2nd mandalorian party is supposably scheduled for this Saturday. If anyone would like to ask questions please ask, for grant I am an Administrator on 2 other wikis, one a burea so I know how this all works and how to revert, if I would be one I would contribute A lot more and always look out for vandalsim and requests.

 * 1) Although you're an admin elsewhere, I do not believe you are th best canidate for the job, maybe later.
 * 2) The KOTOR wiki, which he was an admin on, fell apart a few days ago. He is clearly not qualified for the job of admin on a larger wiki. Lord Orenc  ( Comlink )( Conquests ) 05:22, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I was aware of that, I was away unfortunately, I was dissapointed to hear that it fell apart. But when I was there I took care of it. Darth tader Mandalore clan  MPTG [[Image:MandalorianKOTOR.jpg|15px]] 13:00, 2 April 2007 (UTC)


 * 1) What NK said. &mdash;Grand Admiral J. Nebulax (Imperial Holovision) [[Image:Imperial Emblem.png|20px]] 11:06, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I'm the one you should blame for the KOTOR Wiki falling apart, not Darth tader, I still support you tader.

Neutral

 * 1) Hmm...he's pretty good, but I'm not 100% confident in him, no offense...But to his credit, he's a good bureaucrat at the Gears of War Wiki, and an active contributor there. =D Cheers, Gho st I nsi de the M ach ine ''(Whisper through the Storm ) (My Journeys ) (Omens ) 22:33, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Not to worry RR, least I know your reason why. Darth tader Mandalore clan  MPTG [[Image:MandalorianKOTOR.jpg|15px]] 23:51, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

Questions
Please any questions ask, I would like to know what are community would like answered. Darth tader Mandalore clan MPTG  00:46, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, you asked for it. (The following slightly modified from Wookieepedia...)


 * 1) Why do you want to become an administrator?
 * 2) In your opinion, what is the role of an administrator?
 * 3) In your view, do administrators hold a technical or political position?
 * 4) How do you feel admins should use their power/stand in comparison with other users?
 * 5) Have you been in any conflicts over editing in the past or do you feel other users have caused you stress? How have you dealt with it and how will you deal with it in the future?
 * 6) Of your articles or contributions to Star Wars Fanon, are there any with which you are particularly pleased, and why?
 * 7) What sysop chores do you anticipate helping with?
 * 8) How important is it for you to be involved in things such as CT, IDrive, FA, and other community-centered items that involve discussion and voting?
 * 9) Do you think admins performing actions (I.e. deletions, blocks, etc.) for reasons not covered on policy should be sanctioned/punished? If so, how?
 * 10) What is your policy, if any, of welcoming new users? Should you welcome a new user, do you look at his/her contributions beforehand? What about anonymous IPs?
 * 11) How would you react if someone undeleted an article you'd mistakenly speedied? Under what circumstances would you consider it appropriate to undelete an article mistakenly speedied by another administrator, if any, and how would you approach this task?
 * 12) How would you react if your user page was vandalized? Under what circumstances would you block the offender? Is there anything else that you would do in this situation?
 * 13) Under what circumstances would you consider blocking an established user?
 * 14) If you could change any one thing about Star Wars Fanon, what would it be?
 * 15) Would you look at a glass to be half-empty or half-full?
 * 16) Do you feel the current blocking policy is too restrictive, not restrictive enough, or OK as it is?
 * 17) Have you ever considered becoming a regular visitor to the Star Wars Fanon IRC chat?
 * 18) How do you feel about people who already have some influence on other Star Wars wiki communities (Wookieepedia, for instance) trying to change policies here?
 * 19) How many clones do you think fought in the Clone Wars? (Note: You are wrong no matter what answer you give.)
 * 20) Who is the most awesome Jedi of all time? (Note: The only correct answer is Kyle Katarn.)
 * 21) Are you or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?
 * 22) What's more important to you: consensus or policy?
 * 23) Have you had any previous leadership experience (in your community, on the web, etc.)?

Now for my own.


 * 1) Are you proud to be an American?
 * 2) What is the most important power and duty of an administrator?
 * 3) Do you know how to spell "Wookiee?"
 * 4) Do you know where your username comes from? Would you think of making an article about it?

All the previous asked by --C3PO the Dragon Slayer 6,000,000 forms of communication because he was bored.

Your own.
 * 1) To help out the wiki with stopping vandalism, or helping on tasks average Users can't do, and also to help the new users that need guidance, but I can do that as an average User.
 * 2) An administrator is a trustworthy user that has a few extra buttons to use. But the Administrators of a wiki is Not In Charge.
 * 3) On the Halo wiki the normal Users are very technically involved and Politicially involved. I believe the Admins don't hold the Technical and policitial standing point. It would make it a dictatorship I think if that was true.
 * 4) I believe the Admins should use there power to do what the average User cannot do, like Block users, do Mediawiki stuff, or protect pages.
 * 5) Yes on Wookieepedia users gave me a lot of stress due to my grammar (I know it isn't the best) and the Original Mando Clan there. I resolved it by forgeting the issue and comming here. In the future I will fix the issue and leave it behind me.
 * 6) Matka Kordai, why... It's my first. The Fan Clans and MPTG, becuase they are my intrests on this wiki.
 * 7) Helping Users on tasks they cannot accomplish on there own. On the Gearsofwar wiki it is fun to do, becuase you get the feeling of importance.
 * 8) Well as I said the Admins don't run the wiki, but I think it is important becuase when the wki steers in one direction you should help it take that turn becuase you can help with the position you stand in.
 * 9) Well not punished except if it was drastic. Once I was gone an Impersonator made another Admin think he was an Admin that we stripped admin status from asking for it. He got it and caused major vandalism. Not punishing him would cause drastic Outcomes. But smaller things should be delt with talking to the Admin asking why they did that and telling them it was wrong, if it is neccassary undo what they did.
 * 10) Ahh my favorite question so far. I love to greet new users, I do look at there contribs to get a basic look at them, better not to Stereotype. My policy is if you are nice to them you get respect back. Quite a few of my votes are from Newer users that I greeted with respect. With anonymous IP's I will look at there contribs and see the Diff's that they did. I will treat them with the same respect as I do with accounted users.
 * 11) I don't know what Speedied is but I would review the article to see if it does deserve to stay, if it's nonsense it has the right to be deleted. If it's okay I will consult with other Admins and the author to keep it or delete it.
 * 12) I would revert it first as I always do. I block by the rules except for certain things like continuous Vandalsim I block longer. But I would contact the Vandal, if it's a minor blanking I would warn them. If it is major then I would block them die to the Blocking Policy lenght.
 * 13) I would block them by what they did or warn them then ban them if it is repeatidly done.
 * 14) I would change the Main Page, no offense to MaulYoda but it doesn't appeal to me any more, but don't have a vision for one.
 * 15) Ahh phycology, I am taught to say Half-full, but I say Half-Full if I am filling a cup with something, and I say Half-empty when I am draining something.
 * 16) I think it is fine as it is.
 * No, I never go on, or stay on becuase no one chats. I would only go on every once and a while to check out the regualr users on it to see if it is not a place to discuss vandalism plans. (Seriously, one guy was suspected by another User and asked me to check him out, but he was fine. But never assume anything).n I only go on when interesting things are planned. (ex:The Fanon Video Game IRC meeting.)
 * 1) I think it is wrong unless they are actively involved on that wiki. I think it is worng to barge in and change the polcies.
 * 2) I say about 14 million. I know I am wrong but in episode 2 they only had roughly 2 million, the Clone Wars was 5 years or so, so it can't be very large.
 * 3) Well I don't know much about Katarn, but no way Revan All The Way!!!
 * 4) Uhhh....No. Never have, never will.
 * 5) I have would have to say policy, the Consensus I have never been to involved in that, but I am getting involved a bit more.
 * Yes, on the web and in real life. On the wikis I am some admins and I kind of lead the way a bit. In real life I am the oldest in my friends group and out of my younger famly. So I am the Overseer of the groups and try to lead it more, my friends always have one guy in my group that they don't likie, excpet me.
 * 1) Yes I am, also a proud British citizen. I have Daul Citizenship. But I live in the US. The commercials here I have to say are outragiously un-handeled, but besides that, gas prices, the government, Iraq, Global Warming, and over-population It's a great place:P Just meesign with you it's a nice place and I'm proud to be a US citizen.
 * 2) I would have to say Blocking. Why, becuase then you can get rid of bad users.
 * 3) Yes I know how to spell Wookiee, when I first joined I think I spelt it wrong. I think it was on the Wokkieepedia IRC channel when I said Wookiepedia, a user corrected me so I now know.
 * 4) I got my User name after I made a comic strip of Star Wars with Tater Tots. SO then I had Darth Tader in it so I used that. There are a select few of User names I have, Darth tader is the most common.

Hope that helps, bye. Darth tader Mandalore clan MPTG  10:44, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
