Revision as of 03:47, 10 July 2008

Please put nominations (including self-nominations) for special user rights below. Add supporting or dissenting comments under the nominations.

Adjustments may be made for special circumstances, but in general there will be at least a one week comment period.

See Wikia:Help:User access levels and Wikia:Help:Administrators' how-to guide for more information about these roles. Special:Listusers/sysop shows the current admins, bureaucrats and staff IDs.

Administrators

An administrator has special responsibilities to watch over the wiki. In order to make it easier to fulfill those responsibilities, and admin can block user IDs or IP edits, protect pages and revert pages more easily.

Nominations:

  • User:Dark Lord Xander, Nominating Myself ,I'm always around working on articles, Like helping new users and hate vandals. Dark Lord Xander 02:36, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
    • Opposed. I know you're frequently present and a tireless contributor. I also think that your residency in Australia makes you a strong candidate because you would logically be online at a time other admins might not. But your grasp of English grammar and punctuation is extremely problematic. A quick glance at your user page — or even the sentence you typed above — is proof enough of that. A lot of times, I don't understand the points you're trying to make.
I'm also not convinced that you have a sound grasp of the original series, nor — because you say you don't own even one original series episode — can you seriously conduct research on it. It worries me that you don't, therefore, seem to have the tools to knowledgeably balance your appreciation of spin-off material against televised material. Moreover, a lot of the pages you have created have been extremely sketchy, such as Grant Morrison and The Infinity Season. The bulk of what you create for the site are simple placeholders; you tend to leave the hard work of synopses, references and general linkages to others.
Your lone in-universe article, Dalek Flying Saucer, is problematic from its very name. You seem to accept that "Dalek Flying Saucer" is what the thing should be called, without ever mentioning that its actual Dalek (that is, in-universe) name has never been given.
I just don't see that your basic editing work warrants giving you additional oversight powers at this time. CzechOut | 03:45, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Bureaucrats

A bureaucrat has the same rights as an administrator and the additional permission to create new administrators and bureaucrats.
