Star Wars Fanon:Requests for adminship/Archive/Michaeldsuarez

The following is an archive of Michaeldsuarez's requests for adminship.

Support

 * 1) Full Vote He is a great user. He helps out this wiki so much by cleaning up this place and helping out new users. Is very much active and if he becomes a administrator, he will probably be the 2nd most active admin.I asked him if he would like to run because Jedi Maser76 has stepped down, and he has agreed.[[Image:AndeLeg.jpg|20px]] Arav (talk ) 22:33, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 13:19, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) He's basically doing it already. This is a guy who contributes to the community by getting rid of category less categories, pages, and the like without having to be asked to. Keep it up.

 * 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. - President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] (Pressroom) (Record) 15:22, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) *That's exactly why I nominated him. [[Image:AndeLeg.jpg|20px]] Arav (talk ) 22:27, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) FULL SUPPORT. I have confidence Mikey will do well.  Wing   msg 16:53, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) FULL SUPPORT Michael helped me much more than Gnosis :) He appears to be a nice guy; probably he would be a great administrator... Momergil 18:46, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) *Vote void as the user does not meet the requirements of the Voting Policy. - President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] (Pressroom) (Record) 23:33, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 9) Full Vote. --Victor (talk) 21:32, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 10) *I'm not sure if I can vote or not but, I owe a lot to Micheal so I know I can at least support him! Jonn1234 11:50, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 11) **You can check out the voting policy. You need 250 mainspace/article edits, and you need to be here for at least a month. You can check how many edits you have here. Sorry, you don't have enough edits. -- Michaeldsuarez  [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 14:45, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 12) As many of you know, I'm not one for community involvement. But, I've been monitoring this man here, and he is a great user.  Constantly helping others, lending a hand and what have you.  It doesn't matter what his edit count is, or how long he's been here.  The only thing that matters is if he's going to improve the wiki.  (Much in the way I'd like to believe that my constant wars with everyone did at least some good for the site.  You guys know who you are...)  Anyways, the site should be in good hands with Mike as an admin.--  CurrentBigThing  ( Speak ) 21:41, 22 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.

 * 2) Per Tom, the articles are just not there, and most not in depth.  This is the same reason I didn't seek a nomination, I have been here a while but I haven't put enough behind my articles to deserve the position, I feel you have to be able to understand the tribulations that each individual could go through before you should represent them.  N.Y.N.E. Comlink[[Image:sithempire2.png|30px]] 03:04, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) *I understand what you're saying, and while I disagree with you your points are valid, but "the tribulations that each individual could go through"? Really? Article writers aren't exactly the proletariat, here. - President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] (Pressroom) (Record) 03:11, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) **Okay perhaps Tribulations was a bit too much. But as far as administrators go I've always had the best luck with those who have had more articles, those that can see things from the point of view of both the newest fanon writers and the veterans.

Comments

 * Hmmm...I wonder why there aren't ever many oppose votes. Anti-Formal  Come slang wit' me Work I've Put In 20:38, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Just a shot in the dark, but maybe people have opinions other than "oppose"? - President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] <font color="#1A2BBB">(Pressroom) <font color="#1A2BBB">(Record) 20:42, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Not everyone though Anti-Formal  Come slang wit' me Work I've Put In 21:36, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I never said everyone. If I did, I'd be blind considering Tom opposed this one. - <font color="#1A2BBB">President Brandon Rhea  [[Image:Presidentialseal.gif|27px]] <font color="#1A2BBB">(Pressroom) <font color="#1A2BBB">(Record) 21:38, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

Questions
I have questions about you, from Wing.
 * 1) What are your priorities, online and offline?  Wing   msg 21:04, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) *Online: I finished all the category and template edits that I was planning to do, so I'm going to move on to editing articles. The articles to be improved category is huge, so I believe there is plenty that I can do. There's many new users coming aboard, so I want to help them as well. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) *Offline: I just graduated High School, so I'm going to college for the fall. I'm going to Stony Brook University in order to study English and Math. I hope to use the skills I'll acquire in college in order to become a teacher and writer. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) How long have you been here?  Wing   msg 21:04, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) *I been here since May 18, 2007, but I spent most of my time on Wookieepedia until the October of that year. It took a long time to get to used to everything, but I eventually got the hang on everything. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 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)
 * 9) Do you think you could work well with the other administrators?  Wing   msg 21:04, 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. I don't believe being an administrator will change any that. I'll do my best to remain friendly, kind, and polite with the administrators and all users. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 11) Do you have any leadership experience, and if yes, what?  Wing   msg 21:04, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 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. I also tried to become captain of the Cross-Country team and the Track and Field team, but better athletes took the position instead. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) How active do you think could you be?  Wing   msg 21:04, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) *I'll be very active in the future. Although I'm going to college, I should still be able to contribute 4+ hours/day, 5+ days/week. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Why do you want to be an administrator?  Wing   msg 21:04, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) *That's like asking a child if they want to became the President. Ever since I was a child, I always dreamt of doing something important. 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. Although this may sound like I just using this opportunity as a stepping stone, I hope to make significant and lasting contributions here before I, too, am forced to retire one day. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 18:47, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Another question:
 * 1) If elected administrator, will you consistently attend to the articles for immediate deletion (and images for immediate deletion if necessary), broken redirects, and double redirects at least on a bi-daily basis? &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 05:24, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) *Firstly, the broken redirects list and double redirects list usually update only once everyday, so I would only be able to take care of those once everyday. Also, like Darth tom, I think I'll only be able to check Articles for immediate deletion and Images for immediate deletion once every day once I go to college. However, I may still be able to check on them twice a day during the summer. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 14:00, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

I have some more questions before tomorrow.  Wing   msg 20:05, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) Firstly, can I call you Mikey?  Wing   msg 20:05, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) *Yes, you can; I never had anything against nicknames before, especially since I chose such a long name for my user name. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 21:28, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) Secondly, what do hope to have accomplished within your first week as an administrator assuming you become one?  Wing   msg 20:05, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) *I hope hope to fulfill whatever task is expected of an Administrator and more if possible. I want to fix some of the newer articles and I think it's time to reduce the amount of articles on this list. To be honest, this is the first time I had the chance to become an administrator, so all this will be kind of new for me. I hope to become use to it within the first week. -- Michaeldsuarez  [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Activate Holocron ) 21:28, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) **Yes, please clear that list! &mdash;Victor, Sr. «discussion» 22:05, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
